Xiao Qi Feng looked at Nangong Yan and was thinking whether what he said was true. However, Nangong Yan began to laugh loudly: “It’s been more than a decade since I stopped bothering about them. Today, my current purpose is to meet Ning Meng Yao.”
Xiao Qi Feng declined to comment as he looked at Nangong Yan: “Since it’s so, then I wish the Regent the best of luck.”
Nangong Yan was stunned, but he soon concluded. As an Emperor, if he did not know about it beforehand, then he should consider stepping down from the throne.
”Since it’s so, I shall gladly accept the Emperor’s blessing,” Nangong Yan smiled and said. There was some eagerness in his heart.
”The Regent can rest in the temporary residence first. I’ll send Qi Tian to bring you over to the Great General’s Residence tomorrow,” There was a purpose of him doing so.
Even when Ning Meng Yao knew Nangong Yan might be her father, she was still slightly opposed to it. It was better to give Ning Meng Yao some time to accept the fact to prevent the awkwardness when they suddenly meet.
Nangong Yan was also able to think of what Xiao Qi Feng had thought of. Based on Ning Meng Yao’s identity, it was not difficult for her to find out about such things, hence, he nodded in agreement.
”I would be troubling Emperor Xiao.”
”You’re welcome, bring the Regent to rest in the temporary residence.”
After sending off Nangong Yan, Xiao Qi Feng pondered for a while and placed down everything in his hands. He changed his clothes and headed to the Great General’s Residence.
”Tian Chang, Meng Yao, I’m sure you know why I’m here,” Xiao Qi Feng looked at the two of them with a solemn expression.
”You……”
”Nangong Yan has arrived, he’ll be coming tomorrow.”
Ning Meng Yao frowned, she was really opposed to it.
”I…… don’t wish to see him,” Ning Meng Yao lowered her head, she said that sentence after a while which stunned the others.
Xiao Qi Feng frowned and looked at Ning Meng Yao: “Why?”
”There’s no reason,” Ning Meng Yao did not wish to explain too much over that matter, she had originally promised her original body to help find her parents, but with her biological father coming to find her, she had a complex feeling. She was afraid of meeting Nangong Yan, she was even more afraid of finding out everything that happened that year.
Xiao Qi Feng still wanted to say something but was stopped by Qiao Tian Chang: “Qi Feng, we already know, you can head back to the palace first.”
Ning Meng Yao’s emotions were in a mess, if Xiao Qi Feng continued forcing her, she might probably turn mad.
Xiao Qi Feng looked at Ning Meng Yao’s ugly expression and he nodded helplessly: “I’ll be heading back first. Meng Yao, please consider it carefully, no matter what, you will have to face it sooner or later.”
Ning Meng Yao remained silent without saying anything. She understood Xiao Qi Feng’s meaning, she also knew what he was implying. Nangong Yan had been searching for so many years, now that he found that person, it was impossible for him to give up just like that. Even if he was unable to meet her the next day, as long as she was around, Nangong Yan would definitely be finding her, it was a matter of sooner or later. Even if she did not see him the next day, they would eventually meet.
After Xiao Qi Feng left, Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ning Meng Yao: “If you do not wish to be here tomorrow, we can go out or we can stay in White Mountain Village for a few days.”
Ning Meng Yao remained silent for a long time and she finally nodded: “Alright.”
She did not wish to meet Nangong Yan before she was mentally prepared.
That night, Qiao Tian Chang packed up their things. They rode on horses after leaving the city gates early the next morning.
When Xiao Qi Tian brought Nangong Yan over, they were informed that the two of them were not at home.
Nangong Yan, who was filled with expectation and excitement, was immediately stunned when he heard the news.
Lin Zi You was looking back at Xiao Qi Tian who was staring at him, he waved his hands in a helpless manner: “Sister-in-law’s emotions were unstable yesterday. Boss plans to bring her out for two days. Sister-in-law will surely return after her mind’s no longer hazy. Regent, the boss wants me to inform you to give sister-in-law some time.”
Nangong Yan quietly nodded. If it was him, he would make the same choice as Ning Meng Yao. He could not blame her as he had let the child suffer for so many years. It was normal for her to refuse a meeting with him.
