    "Yummy." Perhaps the Divine-Spirit Fruit was too delicious, as Nn Daier finally let her guard down


    with a sweet smile hanging on her lips.


    "Daier, itste, why are you still hanging around outside?"


    "My brother is not in a good mood. I want to buy him some osmanthus cakes, but I couldnt find them."


    Nn Daier blinked as she answered.


    Indeed, there was a famous shop selling osmanthus cake in Southern Street.Nn Jing must be


    extremely upset with the canceled engagement. Hence, Nn Daier had snuck out to buy the dessert


    that he liked most to cheer him up.


    Feng Ruqing sighed as she recalled the moment she saw the gloomy look on her cousins face. It was a


    pity that she did not know about the canceled engagement when she met him.

    "Daier, let me take you there." Feng Ruqing got up and held Nn Daier hands as she smiled.


    As the night grew darker, the generals manor sank into chaos. The old general jumped out of his bed


    and led everyone in the generals manor in search of Nn Daier.


    Lady Nn stood at the generals manors door, staring anxiously into the distance, gripping a scarf


    tightly.


    "General and Father had gone out for quite some time, have they found Daier?"


    Nn Daier was different from an ordinary kid. She started crawling only when she was one year old


    and was unable to talk when she was two. Only at the age of three did she learn to walk on her own.


    Moreover, she was weak and fragile. Hence, Lady Nn had always been taking extra care of Nn


    Daier. If anything were to happen to Nn Daier, how was Lady Nn going to live her life?


    Lady Nn wiped off her tears and sighed softly.


    Suddenly, a small silhouette came into sight, sending joy to her heart. However, when she saw thedy


    walking next to Nn Daier, her face darkened. She quickly rushed toward Nn Daier, pulled her


    hand out of Feng Ruqings grip and wrapped her tightly in her embrace.


    Standing in a stupor, Lady Nn was afraid that Feng Ruqing wold hurt Nn Daier.


    "Aunt, dont worry. I would not hurt Daier. She wanted to buy osmanthus cakes for Cousin but had lost


    her way. So, I sent her home." Feng Ruqing knew what Lady Nn was worried about and smiled


    wryly.


    Lady Nn did not let her guard down as she still could not trust Feng Ruqing.


    "Your Highness, thanks for helping Daier. We will not trouble you again in the future."


    "Daier, never do this again. You have made me worried."


    "Mommy, dont worry. Cousin will protect me." Nn Daier buried her head in Lady Nns bosom and


    broke into a smile.


    Feng Ruqing will protect Daier? Lady Nn could not believe what she had just heard. She would


    already be extremely grateful if Feng Ruqing did not hurt Nn Daier.


    "Aunt, I mean no harm. I am here today to check on grandfathers health condition," Feng Ruqing said


    with a grave expression on her face. She did not say a word about her cousins canceled engagement


    as she knew that it would only worsen the whole situation.


    "Your Highness, dont you know what happen to my father? The Iron-Blooded Token was Empress


    Nns painstaking effort of a lifetime, and you have given it to Noble Consort Rong without a second


    thought. My father was waiting outside your chamber for a few days, begging to meet you. However,


    you did not even spare him a nce. His health has been declining day after day ever since."
