“Yan Nuo, did Big Brother say I could go back?” Qian Yiyun asked Yan Nuo.

She wanted to go back and see that vicious woman!

“Well,” Yan Nuo paused, his face helpless. “The epidemic is still raging in the military camp, Miss. You should stay here to prevent Master from worrying.”

It was not that he did not want Qian Yiyun to return. He was also worried about her staying here. However, it was better to have her stay here than return to the military camp.

Prince Lei Ting was still eyeing them with hostility. Yan Nuo knew that Qian Yiyun was the only person Prince Lei Ting could target to challenge his master.

As long as Prince Lei Ting could not find Qian Yiyun, he could not do anything to his master.

“Okay.” Qian Yiyun sighed helplessly.

So be it. I don’t know what I can do even if I go to the military camp. I don’t think my sister-in-law has the time to chat with me either.

“Miss, I’ll head back now.”

Yan Nuo understood the situation better after meeting Qian Yiyun and confirming what Xue Ling had done.

It was time to gather more information from Xue Ling. She might not know much about the person backing her, but she should not be completely clueless about them.

He suddenly considered a possibility, and his eyes flashed with anxiety.

“You’re leaving already? It’s late already. Shouldn’t you stay for a night before setting off?”

“No, Miss. I’ll hurry back now. Things may change if I’m late.”

Yan Nuo could not stay any longer. He bid farewell to Qian Yiyun hurriedly and left.

“Xue Ling!” Qian Yiyun cursed as she watched Yan Nuo leave. “She’s exactly the same as her aunt. They’re both so vicious!”

She had assumed that Xue Ling was not like the old woman in their residence. It turned out that Xue Ling was only acting. She was really an extra-large white lotus¹!

…

A man in a green robe hurried into a residence, pushed open a door and walked in.

“Master, we have news.”

Upon entering the room, he immediately knelt on the ground and lowered his head. He lifted his hands, holding a small scroll of letter.

“Bring it here.”

The man sitting behind the table paused his writing, placed his brush aside, and looked up at him.

“Yes, Master.”

The green-robed man replied and handed the letter to him respectfully. He took two steps back and continued kneeling on the ground, waiting for his master to finish reading the letter and instruct him.

The man opened the letter and skimmed through the contents. He sneered.

“Idiot!”

Save someone? Was he someone who would save a useless person?

“Prince Lei Ting is another stupid one. He still wants to save an abandoned pawn at a time like this?”

To them, Xue Ling was merely a tiny pawn. They had her stay near Qian Jiyun only to cause him minor inconveniences.

She was completely exposed before Qian Jiyun, yet they still thought they would rescue her and make use of her?

The subordinate looked up and asked carefully, “Master, you mean… we won’t save her?”

Xue Ling was already an abandoned pawn, but he believed she could still be useful if used correctly.

After all, she was still quite important to that old woman.
