Chapter 238: Support

Translator: Vesper

Li Lin Er’s days in Xiao’s Residence was as if walking on thin ice. Not just her, things were not going so well for Xiao Zi Xuan in Ling Residence too.

Because of her folly, she had implicated Ling Residence to the point they couldn’t return to the past. Not only did Ling Luo not bother her because of this, he even took away her child. There was an adequate reason and that was because she simply was not competent to take up the responsibility for her child’s education so he took away her child to the Marquess.

Xiao Zi Xuan had lost Ling Luo’s love and even her child now. In her heart, she was embarrassed but was even more sad about it.

“Ling Luo, how can you treat me like this? If it wasn’t for me, could you still become the Heir?” Xiao Zi Xuan looked at the empty room and wailed.

Xiao Zi Xuan sat on the ground with both of her eyes in a bit of dullness. At this moment, a woman who was dressed as pretty as a flower came in.

“Oh, what has happened to you?” Seeing the sorry state Xiao Zi Xuan was in, she asked in astonishment.

Xiao Zi Xuan was full of malevolence as she watched the woman in front of her. Her eyes were filled with hatred, “Get lost.”

“Do you still think you are the mighty daughter of the Xiao’s Residence? Take a look at your status first.” She looked at Xiao Zi Xuan disdainfully.

Xiao Zi Xuan clenched her fists tightly and sneered afterwards.

She stood up from the ground while still carrying the arrogance she had before, “Even if I have lost his favor now, I am still of higher status than you. Did you think a concubine like you will be able to surpass me? Servants, slap her.” Xiao Zi Xuan sneered as she looked at her pale face.

There was a quick change in her face, “Don’t you guys dare. The Heir favors me the most.”

“The most favored? I want to see if he will still favor you when you return after this.” Xiao Zi Xuan looked at her with eyes full of bloodthirst.

It looked as if a viper had already locked its eyes on its prey.

The people at Xiao Zi Xuan’s side were basically from Xiao’s Residence, especially a few of the servants who were trained to be secret soldiers the moment they were born.

She naturally had the means to deal with a delicate woman like her.

That woman was pulled by her arm very quickly and slapped on her face.

Xiao Zi Xuan sat on the chair, casually looking at the woman in front of her who kept pleading for mercy.

“Remember, even if you’re the Heir’s most favored woman, you have no way of surpassing me.” Even though Ling Luo and the rest disliked her now, but they didn’t dare make a move on her. Wasn’t it because she was the daughter of Xiao’s Residence?

Now, they were already attacked from both sides. They naturally wouldn’t want to offend Xiao’s Residence, this was not something they would dare to do.

Just as what Xiao Zi Xuan thought, the woman lamented in front of Ling Luo after she went back. Even though Ling Luo was angry, he didn’t say anything but punished the woman instead.

Xiao Zi Xuan got to know of this and she laughed coldly. She had already seen through a man like him.

Xiao Zi Xuan took a deep breath in and sent someone to pass a message to Xiao Yi Lin.

After Xiao Yi Lin received the message from Xiao Zi Xuan, he frowned. Although this was all because of Xiao Zi Xuan, he was also responsible for it and couldn’t blame anyone.

But being angry was one thing, he wouldn’t allow others to bully his daughter.

As a result, he put away the matter at hand and went to Ling Residence.

When Ling Luo and Marquis Ling heard that Xiao Yi Lin was coming, their faces changed slightly and they frowned slightly. Ling Luo especially still had disgust in his eyes.

“What is Emperor Xiao doing here at this time?” Marquis Ling said in annoyance.

“Most likely because of Xiao Zi Xuan.” Ling Luo’s eyes squinted slightly. It looked like Xiao Zi Xuan had not learnt from experience. She was still finding trouble for him even at this moment.

When Xiao Yi Lin arrived, Ling Luo and his father were waiting for him. Seeing him, Ling Luo walked up to him, “My regards to father-in-law.”

With a glance at Ling Luo, Xiao Yi Lin nodded, “Ling Luo, you don’t have to be so polite. I came here today to have a look at Xuan’er and her child.” Xiao Yi Lin explained his purpose of coming.

Although Ling Luo was still smiling on the outside, he had chills in his heart. Sure enough, she was Xiao Zi Xuan.

“Yes. Please hold on. Father-in-law, I’ll call Xuan’er here.” Ling Luo told him and went away.

Xiao Zi Xuan saw Ling Luo appear in front of her and she remained indifferent.

“Father-in-law wants to see you. You better know what to say and what not.”
