The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 204 That... There Won't Be a Next Time

Shangguan Ziling saw her parents were moved, so she gently comforted them, "Dad, Mom, let's go to the mansion and talk in detail first."

Shangguan Dong nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Zi Ling is right, let's go in and talk first." Shangguan Dong wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, happily hugged Beichen Xue into the mansion, and then the group slowly walked into the spacious and bright hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Beichen Xue was too weak to say much, so Shangguan Ziling narrated on her behalf.

Shangguan Ziling told the story slowly and told Beichen Xue's experiences over the years and her true identity.

After listening to their daughter's story, Shangguan Dong and Shangguan Zirun were both angry and shocked. They never thought that Beichen Xue and Ye Mutian had lived at the bottom of the cliff for so many years.

At the same time, they expressed their gratitude to Ye Mutian.

Shangguan Dong bowed deeply to Ye Mutian and said sincerely: "Brother Ye, thank you for taking care of Xue'er over the years. Your kindness will be remembered by our whole family."

Ye Mutian smiled faintly, waved his hand and said: "Brother Shangguan, you are too polite. Junior Sister is my Junior Sister and I will do my best to take care of her. What's more, Junior Sister and I are the only ones left in our sect, so there is no need to thank you." Although his tone was plain, the friendship in it was enough to move people.

In this warm and solemn hall, the family sat together, talking about past experiences and future plans.

Their faces were filled with happy smiles, as if all the suffering had passed and only a bright future was waiting for them to explore.

Shangguan Ziling's stomach suddenly growled, breaking the originally warm atmosphere.

Several people turned their eyes to her. Shangguan Ziling suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She touched her stomach sheepishly and said pitifully, "I'm so hungry."

Beichen Xue couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle. She looked at Shangguan Ziling and felt that she was both cute and distressed.

Shangguan Dong said apologetically, "I forgot you haven't had dinner yet. Someone, arrange dinner immediately."

Soon, a group of servants came in with sumptuous dishes, filling the entire long table. The aroma was so delicious that it made people salivate.

Shangguan Ziling's eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't wait to sit down at the dining table.

Shangguan Dong kept picking up food for Beichen Xue and said with concern: "Xue'er, eat more, you are too weak."

Beichen Xue smiled and nodded, letting him serve her the food.

Watching the interaction between her parents, Shangguan Ziling felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She sighed, "My parents are so loving!"

Shangguan Ziling's eyes fell on her mother's bowl, which was filled with dishes carefully selected by her father Shangguan Dong. She couldn't bear it and whispered, "Dad, mother is weak and shouldn't eat too much at once. She should take care of herself slowly."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Dong stopped adding food to the bowl, changed his mind, and poured a glass of wine for Ye Mutian beside him.

Shangguan Ziling turned her gaze to Ye Mutian, who was dressed in black. She asked curiously, "Uncle Ye, when you eat, you have to show your face, otherwise how can you eat?"

Ye Mutian's body stiffened, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face, "Zi Ling, I'm afraid I might scare you."

Beichen Xue also said with some sadness: "Big Brother was originally a handsome and suave man. In order to save me, he was hit in the face by the poison powder, and because of this, Big Brother was disfigured."

After hearing this, Ye Mutian quickly took a few bites of food, stood up with the bowl and said, "I'm going out to eat, leave me alone." After that, he flashed and disappeared into the hall.

The atmosphere became a little depressing. Shangguan Ziling only ate one bowl of rice and then quietly left the dining room.

She came to the roof of the yard and saw Ye Mutian sitting there alone.

Shangguan Ziling landed lightly beside him. Ye Mutian felt her approaching and quickly pulled up his collar to cover his face.

However, none of this escaped Shangguan Ziling's eyes. What kind of face did she see? It was full of pits and even pus.

Shangguan Ziling was stunned...

Ye Mutian looked at Shangguan Ziling's shocked expression and said calmly, "Did you get scared?"

Shangguan Ziling was startled, but soon calmed down and comforted him softly: "Uncle Ye, I'm not that easily scared. Don't worry, I will heal you."

As she spoke, she took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from her sleeve and handed it to Ye Mutian, "Here, Uncle Ye, this bottle contains spiritual spring water. You will feel better if you drink it."

Ye Mutian took the porcelain bottle and looked at Shangguan Ziling deeply, his eyes full of gratitude and complicated emotions.

Ye Mutian held the porcelain bottle tightly, a warm light flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "Okay, Uncle Ye, thank you Zi Ling." Although his voice was low, it was full of sincere gratitude.

Shangguan Ziling shook her head gently, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said softly: "Uncle Ye, there is no need to thank me. I should thank Uncle Ye. If Uncle Ye had not arrived in time, I am afraid that mother would have..." She did not finish her words, but the gratitude and respect in them were beyond words.

After hearing these words, Ye Mutian's expression softened significantly. He leaned forward slightly, looked at Shangguan Ziling with deep eyes, and said softly: "Zi Ling is getting married tomorrow, go and rest early!"

Shangguan Ziling nodded and responded obediently: "Well, Uncle Ye, Daddy has also asked someone to arrange a guest room for you, Uncle Ye, you should rest early." Her words revealed a caring concern.

Ye Mutian nodded again, and he turned and looked into the distance, as if he was thinking about something. After a moment, he turned and left, his figure gradually disappearing into the night.

Shangguan Ziling stood on the roof and watched Ye Mutian leave, her heart filled with gratitude and respect.

She knew that this Uncle Ye not only saved her mother, but was also her mother's senior brother. She secretly vowed that she would cure Ye Mutian's injuries, remove the toxins in his body, and let him have that handsome face again.

Shangguan Ziling returned to her own Jiangzi Courtyard, and several maids in the courtyard immediately surrounded her, all with happy smiles on their faces.

Qiu Kui looked at her eagerly, with a bit of coquettishness in her voice: "Miss, next time you go out, you must take Dong Qing and me with you."

Dongqing also agreed: "Yes, Miss, don't drug us like you did this time."

Shangguan Ziling was a little embarrassed when she heard this. She touched her nose and said softly, "That... there won't be a next time."

Chunxiao looked like a housekeeper. She reminded, "Miss, the hot water is ready for you. You'd better take a bath and rest early. You can't be late for the wedding tomorrow." Shangguan Ziling nodded to show that she understood.

Shangguan Ziling walked into the room next to the bathtub, took off her complicated dress, and gently immersed herself in the warm water. The rippling water completely enveloped her body. She closed her eyes comfortably, letting the water gently lap her skin, taking away all her fatigue.

The bathroom was filled with a light floral scent and a fresh atmosphere, which made people feel extremely peaceful and relaxed. Shangguan Ziling was immersed in this comfortable feeling, as if all her troubles had drifted away with the water.
