In the afternoon, Jiang Ning went out and took Qinghong to the garden of the City Lord's Mansion.

The Diamond Formation has not been completed yet, but the time for the beast tide is coming soon.

She and the three formation masters must complete the formation as soon as possible.

As soon as he walked out of the door, Jiang Ning heard the maids in charge of cleaning outside whispering.

Jiang Ning didn't want to eavesdrop on others, but his hearing was too sensitive.

"I heard that when Miss Qin first arrived in Li City a few days ago, Chen Youran used the name of the city lord's palace to snatch the bluestone sword spike that Miss Qin bought in public."

"Bluestone sword spike! I remember that one was very expensive."

"People have eyes on the top of their heads. Can she see cheap things?"

Jiang Ning frowned slightly after hearing these words.

Just as he was about to speak, Chen Youran suddenly walked out with Yue'er.

"What are you talking about!" Yue'er directly asked several maids.

"We didn't say anything." Nowadays, the maids don't take Chen Youran's master and servant seriously at all.

Chen Youran bypassed the maids, walked directly to Jiang Ning, and looked into her eyes.

The first words he spoke confused Jiang Ning.

"Miss Qin, if you hold a grudge against me for what happened a few days ago, I can apologize to you."

"What?" Jiang Ning's face was full of questions.

In the past few days, she had been busy drawing a huge diamond formation in the garden, and had no energy to pay attention to the rumors about the city lord's palace, so she still didn't know what the purpose of Chen Youran's sudden visit to her was.

"You can pretend not to understand, but I still have to say, I can pretend not to hear what you say about me, but my father, no one is qualified to discuss it, including the Lord of the City." Chen Youran said firmly.

She, who has always been gentle towards others, showed her edge in front of others for the first time.

Jiang Ning still didn't understand what Chen Youran meant. At this time, an array master who was also in charge of the diamond array suddenly came over.

Seeing Jiang Ning still standing there, he hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her away.

"Miss Qin, time is running out. Let's go quickly."

The matters at the Diamond Formation could not be delayed, so Jiang Ning turned around and said to Chen Youran, "Miss Chen, if you have anything to do, we'll talk about it next time."

After saying that, he and the formation master left without stopping.

Others didn't know what Jiang Ning was up to. In their eyes, they only saw Chen Youran's aggressive attitude, and Jiang Ning didn't want to talk to Chen Youran.

Not surprisingly, what happened today will turn into another version of the rumor in the next few days and appear among everyone in the City Lord's Mansion.

"It's really rude not to even listen to what someone has to say." Yue'er said beside Chen Youran.

Although Jiang Ning was pulled away, Qinghong was still where he was.

Hearing that Yue'er dared to say that to Jiang Ning, Qinghong immediately used his spiritual power to lift her up.

Yue'er, who had never flown before, suddenly flew so high and screamed in fright.

"Ah!!! Put me down! Put me down quickly!"

Chen Youran saw Yue'er being bullied and immediately questioned Qinghong.

"What are you doing! Put her down!"

Qinghong glanced at Chen Youran with disdain, looking arrogant.

"I dare to tell my master, just to scare her is fine."

As he spoke, Qinghong moved his fingertips slightly, and the moon immediately rose and set in the sky.

"Ah! Girl! Girl, please save me!"

"You!" This is the first time Chen Youran has seen someone like Qinghong who doesn't take anyone seriously.

Even though Qinghong was obedient and harmless in front of Jiang Ning, as long as someone dared to harm Jiang Ning, even if he just said a few words, Qinghong would immediately make the other person regret it.

After a quarter of an hour, Qinghong felt that it was almost done, so he loosened his hand and put Yue'er down.

"Next time, it won't be as simple as scaring someone." Qinghong left a warning and left without looking back.

The moment Yue'er's legs touched the ground, they went limp, and she fell to the ground, her face pale with fear.

The maids watching the show immediately laughed out loud when they saw this.

Amid the laughter of everyone, Yue'er felt ashamed and just wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it.

"Don't laugh! Don't even laugh!" Yue'er cried and shouted, but none of the maids would listen to her.

Chen Youran saw Yue'er crying sadly, so he held her in his arms and comforted her.

"Girl, why didn't you save me? Why didn't you save me just now?" Yue'er grabbed Chen Youran's sleeve and cried non-stop.

Chen Youran felt self-blame in his heart, and at the same time he hated his own incompetence.

If she had that kind of power, people around her wouldn't be bullied, and her dead father wouldn't have to suffer these rumors.

When Yue'er had cried enough, Chen Youran took her back to the yard.

No one noticed that the black energy that had sneaked into Yue'er's body had gradually enveloped her heart.

At night, Yue'er sat on the bed, clutching the quilt with both hands, and her heart was filled with anger.

She hated Jiang Ning's coldness and ruthlessness, and Qinghong's arrogance.

And Chen Youran, she hated herself for following such a useless thing.

As Yue'er's hatred was revealed little by little, the black energy surrounding her heart slowly seeped into it.

In the middle of the night, Yue'er knocked on Chen Youran's door after injuring herself all over.

"Yue'er, what's wrong with you?" Chen Youran was shocked when he saw that Yue'er was covered in injuries.

Yue'er hugged Chen Youran and started crying, "Girl, it's that Qin Nian! She asked her brother to kill me. If I hadn't run fast, what the girl would see tomorrow might be my body."

"What?!" After hearing what Yue'er said, Chen Youran was shocked, "Yue'er, are you sure you read it correctly?"

"Girl, that's the person who wants to kill me. How could I be wrong? Besides, just because of the conflict between you and her a few days ago, Qin Nian spread rumors and ruined your reputation. Today, I said to her, How could she not hold grudge against me?" Yue'er said with tears streaming down her face.

"Don't be afraid, let's go to the Lord of the City to redress your grievance." Chen Youran said and was about to help Yue'er up.

Seeing this, Yue'er quickly stopped Chen Youran.

"Girl, it's not like you don't know Qin Nian's current position in the heart of the City Lord. I'm afraid it will be in vain for us to go to the City Lord."

"Then I can't let you be bullied in vain, Yue'er, you are my last relative." Chen Youran said firmly.

"Girl, to be honest, I heard another piece of news today, and I didn't know whether I should tell you or not." Yue'er said suddenly.

Chen Youran was used to these rumors and said, "What did they say about me again?"

"They said..." Yue'er pretended to be hesitant, "They said your father is not worthy of entering the ancestral hall of the City Lord's Mansion. Miss Qin has already had your father's tablet thrown away."

"What!" Chen Youran was shocked. Before he could think about it carefully, he got up and ran to the ancestral hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

After arriving at the ancestral hall of the City Lord's Mansion, he did not find his father's tablet inside.

Chen Youran felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He sat on the cold floor, and a steady stream of tears immediately poured out of his eyes.

"Dad, my daughter is unfilial and incompetent."
