Chapter 1981: Chapter 1981: Is This Possible?
The nanny listened with fear and trepidation. That was the Sect Master, and even if Lady Leng was angry, she couldn’t curse the Sect Master to die. If someone outside heard it, would Lady Leng still have a good outcome?
Not to mention Lady Leng, even the eldest daughter wouldn’t be able to find favor in the Sect Master’s eyes anymore.
“Lady Leng, please calm down. The Qe Mingmu might not necessarily have been given to that bastard. Didn’t Sect Master Leng say he would hold a ceremony to recognize the clan’s lineage in three days? Perhaps the Qe Mingmu will be needed then,” said the servant, finding an excuse for Sect Master Leng. Before this, the Eternal Night Sect had never experienced any descendants becoming estranged, so maybe it was indeed for the upcoming ceremony.
When Lady Leng heard her words, her anger grew even stronger.
Not mentioning the clan recognition ceremony was better. Why should the son of a mere servant bear the Leng surname? And why should he become the Young Sect Master?
If her plans hadn’t gone awry back then, how could a servant have ended up in Leng Ye’s bed? Had things gone according to her plan, she would have succeeded long ago.
It was because that servant appeared out of nowhere that she was left without a healthy son to inherit the Eternal Night Sect.
“Get out, get out!”
Her eyes blood-red, Lady Leng glared at the nanny and bellowed at her in rage.
The nanny was so scared that she felt her courage breaking, she hurried out, never daring to show herself when Lady Leng was in a fit of anger again.
She shouldn’t have entered just now, and then she wouldn’t have gotten hurt. The sight of Lady Leng in fury was just too terrifying. No wonder even the eldest daughter dared not come close.
“Nanny, how is my mother?”
Leng Yiyu had been waiting outside in the courtyard. Seeing the nanny come out, she quickly approached to inquire.
She thought that if the nanny had come out, it must mean her mother was no longer angry. Moreover, she hadn’t heard the sound of porcelain shattering anymore, and even her mother’s curses had ceased.
“I’ll go in and have a look.”
As she spoke, she moved to step inside but was grabbed by the arm by the nanny.
“Ow, my dear young mistress, Lady Leng is still in the throes of anger. Please don’t go in and provoke her further. It would be difficult to bear her wrath, and you know her temper well.”
The nanny had barely escaped with her life, and now the young mistress wanted to go in?
“Young mistress, why would you talk to Lady Leng about the Qe Mingmu like that? It’s only going to incite more resentment from her, especially when she already dislikes that bastard,” the nanny said.
Leng Yiyu, however, was not pleased by the nanny’s words.
What was wrong with speaking the truth? Her father had indeed taken the Qe Mingmu, and now the Eternal Night Sect wasn’t as bright as before, glowing only with a faint light. She really wasn’t used to it.
Her mother would find out sooner or later, so what difference did it make if she said it now?
“I didn’t say anything wrong. Father must have given the Qe Mingmu to that bastard.” Grinding her teeth, she spoke resentfully.
“How could that be?”
The nanny didn’t share her views and refuted Leng Yiyu’s words.
“Even if Sect Master Leng wanted to favor Leng Nicen, he should know the significance of the Qe Mingmu. How could he just hand it over to him upon his arrival?”
Sect Master Leng didn’t know much about this son, so how could he entrust the Sect’s Treasure to Leng Nicen? That was unthinkable.
Of course, there was no such possibility, and the nanny wouldn’t believe it no matter what was said.
“Young mistress, the Sect Master must have other uses for the Qe Mingmu. Just wait and see, the Qe Mingmu will return to its place before long,” reassured the nanny.
