Capítulo 2720: Chapter 2721: Remarkable Tact
“Yes, Madam.”
The guard responded and turned to leave.
“Hm.”
Madam Yuan watched the guard’s back and let out a sneer.
“After ruining his own family, he still wants to harm our Yuan Family. Does he even realize how big his face is?”
As she spoke, she looked at the maid behind her.
“Is the Family Head in the study?” she asked.
“Replying to Madam, the Family Head has been in the study all day,” the maid imdiately replied.
“I see.”
Madam Yuan nodded slightly and then walked towards the direction of the study.
Since Family Head Ling ca to their door, she couldn’t just send him away without further action.
She must make her husband aware of the situation, to prevent him from doing sothing regrettable that could drag the entire Yuan Family down with them; otherwise, she certainly wouldn’t let him have his way!
…
In the study of the Yuan Family.
At this mont, Family Head Yuan had already heard from his secret guard that Family Head Ling had co to visit, but was sent away by his wife.
“It’s good that he was sent away.”
He raised his head, sighed faintly, and shook his head.
The Ling Family is becoming more and more degenerate. A daughter should be kept at ho and not allowed to cause trouble outside. Yet, look at what Ling Xue’er has done?
Thinking about it made him truly fearful. It was fortunate that his wife hadn’t let him finalize the marriage arrangent between the Yuan and Ling Families back then.
Otherwise, such a woman, even if this incident didn’t bring down the Ling Family, would eventually implicate and drag the entire Yuan Family down with her.
Although he had a friendship with Family Head Ling before, no friendship is worth more than his own interests.
Besides, this is about the entire family’s interests. How can it be so easily sacrificed?
“Thinking back now, it was Madam who had the foresight,” he sighed again.
The secret guard, hearing his words, couldn’t help but twitch his mouth slightly.
The eldest daughter of the Ling Family used to pretend to be well-behaved and sensible in front of the Family Head in order to marry into the Yuan Family.
But behind the scenes, she would either beat or scold even the servants of the Yuan Family.
The Family Head was naturally unaware of these matters, but as the one in charge of the Yuan Family’s inner court, Madam Yuan was certainly privy to such things.
Madam Yuan always had high ans and a unique vision, and even though she was the mistress of the Yuan Family, she would never arbitrarily beat or scold servants.
Naturally, how could such a Madam Yuan think highly of the proud and malicious eldest daughter of the Ling Family?
“The Family Head is right.”
He didn’t dare to say anything else, he could only agree.
“Since Madam has sent them away, then give the order: from now on, no one from the Yuan Family is to have any dealings with the Ling Family. If I find out otherwise, they’ll be imdiately expelled from the Yuan Family!”
Family Head Yuan thought about it and was still uneasy, so he directly instructed the secret guard.
Since the City Lord can issue such an order, it shows that Ling Xue’er has thoroughly offended the City Lord’s Mansion, and it definitely can’t be just Ling Xue’er’s personal issue.
There must be other reasons involved. The Yuan Family has no desire to get involved in this matter.
“Keep an eye on things for
as well,”
he instructed the secret guard once more, feeling uneasy about the recent strangeness in Sky City, though he couldn’t quite identify what was strange about it.
