At the Grand Lord's official residence.
As Gu Ruoyun was chatting with the Grand Lord and Dongfang Yu, a man dressed in a guard's uniform led a young girl towards them.
"Grand Lord, this is my sister, Lin Xue. I have purposely brought her here so she could pay her respects to you."
The guard's voice interrupted their conversation and caused the Grand Lord to frown slightly. He turned around and his expression softened when he saw the man."Lin Yang, since she's your little sister, make sure that she enjoys her time in the territory. If money is short, you can have some transferred over from the Grand Lord's residence."
"Thank you, Grand Lord."
Lin Yan joined his fists respectfully as a sense of helplessness flashed in his eyes. The nicer the Grand Lord was to him, the more guilty he felt.
"Grand Lord."
Lin Xue did not bother to consider the situation as she smiled adoringly."Xue'er thanks you for granting us your favor."
However, Grand Lord Hong Lian had only said those things to appreciate Lin Yang's hard work. To Lin Xue, the Grand Lord's words had become warped into his favor towards her. She had even addressed herself as 'Xue'er'.
"Alright, you may take your leave."
The Grand Lord frowned. He had not even looked at Lin Xue the entire time. Once he had finished speaking, he turned his gaze back to Dongfang Yu.
"Xue'er!"
When Lin Yang noticed that Lin Xue's eyes were still clinging onto the Grand Lord's figure, he panicked over being found out and quickly tried to drag her away.
Unfortunately, Lin Xue was used to being willful so how could she possibly be willing to listen to Lin Yang's words? She raised her cup and walked towards Gu Ruoyun.
"Eldest Lady, I have indeed offended you today on the street. I should not have indulged in fantasies and tried to buy your spiritual beast! However, you were right in having someone punch me. Allow me to express my sincere apologies!"
The young girl looked arrogantly at Gu Ruoyun who was seated next to Grand Lord Hong Lian.
Her words displayed an obvious sense of her own naivety and insensibility as she painted Gu Ruoyun as someone with a heartless attitude.
Though Lin Xue was the one who had taken a liking to Gu Ruoyun's spiritual beast first, Gu Ruoyun was the one who had allowed that silver-haired man to attack her. How could Lin Xue possibly tolerate this slight?
When Grand Lord Hong Lian, who had been chatting with Dongfang Yu, overheard Lin Xue's words, he finally raised his head and turned to look at that pretty and young face.
"Did you just say that Yun'er had hit you?"
When the young girl noticed that the Grand Lord's attention was now on her, her heart leaped as she hurriedly replied, "Grand Lord, the Eldest Lady is not to blame for this. It was Xue'er's fault, please don't blame the Eldest Lady, Grand Lord."
"What gave you the impression that I was blaming Yun'er?" Grand Lord Hong Lian raised his domineering brow. His arrogant black eyes flashed sharply as he continued, "I merely find it strange. Who has given you such great courage to have the audacity to distort the truth in front of me?"
As he spoke, he turned his glare towards Lin Yang and his voice was stern, "Lin Yang, I previously had a lot of admiration for you. I even had intentions of training you but you have a little sister like this. You've been a great disappointment to me!"
Lin Yang's expression drained of color. He knows that he had lost his place in the Red Lotus Territory all because his little sister had caused trouble in front of the Grand Lord!
"Grand Lord, I have done wrong."
Lin Yang lowered his head and quickly apologized. He then quickly pulled the young girl's arm with a face full of anxiety, "Xue'er, stop causing trouble and come with me!"
