The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 241: You Don’t Have The Final Say

Translator: Vesper

Going to the Great General’s Residence was only because of the lack of a better option. If there was another way, he wouldn’t even want to go there as he didn’t want Ning Meng Yao to see his current messy state.

From the day they met to the day they separated, he had always been high and mighty. But now, he had reached the point where he had to beg. It was too embarrassing for someone as arrogant as him.

However, in his current state, there was no other choice anyway.

Perhaps she was right. He had changed. He had become ambitious and he tried to attain something that didn’t belong to him which led him to his current situation.

When Ling Luo and Ming Fang reached the gate of the Great General’s Residence, Qing Xue and the rest were already alerted beforehand.

“Great General, Ling Luo is here.” Qing Xue said in a very unpleasant tone.

Qiao Tian Chang, who had been accustomed to Qing Xue addressing him as Young Master, was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and looked at Ning Meng Yao: “Do you want to see him?”

Ning Meng Yao, who was feeling very lazy after resting by Qiao Tian Chang’s side, looked at his handsome face and asked: “Do you want to?”

She could roughly understand what he meant by his question.

“I want to know why he is here.” Qiao Tian Chang naturally didn’t hide his thoughts. However, if Ning Meng Yao didn’t want to see Ling Luo, he would certainly chase him away.

“Then we’ll see him.” Ning Meng Yao tilted her head sideways and said simply.

She would just remain quiet when he comes in.

Qiao Tian Chang pinched Ning Meng Yao’s cheeks. A faint devilish look flashed across Qiao Tian Chang’s eyes.

“Let them in.”

“Yes, Great General.”

After Qing Xue left, Qiao Tian Chang picked up Ning Meng Yao from his lap and hugged her in his arms before asking: “Why did the servants suddenly address me differently?” He believed that if Ning Meng Yao didn’t ask them to do so, Qing Xue and the rest wouldn’t address him that way.

Ning Meng Yao pushed his head away slightly. She couldn’t help but frown: “This is the Great General’s Residence. It won’t be good if others were to hear them addressing you as Young Master.”

Although she knew that he didn’t care, she still didn’t want others to have the chance to gossip about him.

Qiao Tian Chang hugged Ning Meng Yao tightly: “Honestly, you don’t have to do that.”

Ning Meng Yao smiled and kept quiet. She leaned on his arms and closed her eyes. She had a sleepy look on her face.

When Ling Luo came in and saw them that way, his footsteps stopped without a reason.

He was somewhat surprised to see Ning Meng Yao like this. He was a little astonished. In his mind, Ning Meng Yao was a very strong woman. When he met her in this lifetime, she didn’t live a good life, but she didn’t want his money either and even got angry when he gave her money.

But now, she was lying in a man’s arms now, and that man wasn’t him.

An obvious hint of unhappiness flashed across Ling Luo’s eyes. He walked towards them with Ming Fang. Standing not far from the couple, he looked at Ning Meng Yao confusedly: “Yao Er, you’ve really changed.”

Ning Meng Yao frowned, and put her head deeper into Qiao Tian Chang’s arms as she tried to get rid of the sound of his voice.

“To what do we owe this honor of Prince Ling coming all the way here?” Qiao Tian Chang hugged Ning Meng Yao tightly in his arms as looked up at Ling Luo boringly and asked.

Ling Luo’s eyebrows slightly furrowed as he glanced at Qiao Tian Chang: “I came here to ask, what do all of you want in order to stop this madness?” Ling Luo looked directly at Qiao Tian Chang and asked seriously.

Qiao Tian Chang stared back at him in irony: “I do not understand what Prince Ling means?”

“You...” Ling Luo’s expression changed, he glared at Qiao Tian Chang gloomily: “I know that you have a connection with Tong Bao Zhai. What do you want in order to make them stop?”

His words were clear to understand. If Qiao Tian Chang still didn’t understand, then it was unacceptable.

Qiao Tian Chang grinned at Ling Luo: “Stop? Who do you think you are to ask us to stop?” Just this little and you’re already unable to bear with it? If that’s the case, why didn’t you watch after your woman more carefully? Wasn’t the previous lesson enough?

Although this incident was caused by Xiao Zi Xuan, truthfully, if it wasn’t because of Ling Luo constantly coming to find Yao Yao, would his woman become jealous and not hesitate to murder Yao Yao? So in the end, all of this was Ling Luo’s fault.

Ling Luo’s expression changed once more as he glared at Qiao Tian Chang coldly: “It seems that you don’t have the final say.”
