My Little Girl (42)
Shu Nuan seemed to be in a good mood because she could go back to the academy . Along the way, the little girl supported herself on the window sill of the carriage, gazing at the scenery without . She would turn back and tell Sheng Qianmo everything she saw, like a child marvelling at the world .
As Sheng Qianmo had prearranged the meeting this time, Head Master Chen and Master Gao came in person to welcome them . The former even reprimanded Shu Nuan’s teacher in front of the prince . It seemed this time Master Gao had to pay for Shu Nuan’s loss .
Indeed, Shu Nuan had always been a clever student, unwilling to provoke anyone, and with a good ability to learn . How could he ask Shu Nuan to not attend the academy for a while just because of some rumors spread by Sheng Gu?
After the meeting was over, Sheng Qianmo assured Shu Nuan to leave with Master Gao . He said that if he would have the time, he would come to pick her up personally .
Master Gao gave the little girl a warm welcome to the Tenth Class a few days later, which came as a surprise to many . After all, the Yulin Academy was a college that paid much attention to its reputation . Incidentally, it proved that Shu Nuan was backed by the Fourth Prince . So when she returned, no one from the class dared to question her regarding this matter . More so because Master Gao had informed them earlier that anyone found engaging in wanton gossip would risk being kicked out of the academy .
No one would dare mention this incident in the future as well .
It could be said that the incident didn’t affect her life after returning to the academy at all . She didn’t think much about the past, and continued to study as usual .
Meanwhile, Sheng Qianmo had just come out of the academy, planning to visit the military camp . But just as he was about to get into the carriage, Sheng Lingyun, who was riding a horse, happened upon him . Acting surprised, he asked, “What a coincidence! Fourth Brother, why did you come here this early in the morning?”
Sheng Qianmo naturally didn’t believe it to be a chance encounter . After all, Sheng Lingyun did not have a reason to be at the Yulin Academy . So with indifferent eyes he chose to speak in a straightforward manner . “Do you have something to say?”
“Fourth Brother, why are you so indifferent? Can’t I talk to you without something being the matter?”
Sheng Qianmo turned and lifted the curtain to get into the carriage . Seeing him get ready to leave, Sheng Lingyun rushed up and stopped him . “Wait, wait, Fourth Brother . I’m here for my little niece . ”
Sheng Qianmo bunched his brows together and spared him a cold glance .
“Fourth Brother, you don’t have to be like this anymore . I went to Shenghe Manor and heard about the entire ordeal . Even though little niece has committed a heavy offense in her lack of discipline, she has learned her lesson . And you have even punished her . Won’t you spare our niece this time?”
However, Sheng Qianmo explained in a cold voice, “I should spare her? If I don’t punish her, she’ll only act in a more reckless manner next time . ”
Sheng Lingyun sighed in helplessness . “Yes, this time it is her fault . But after all, she is Second Brother’s daughter . She is different from others . She had no father or mother since childhood and has always suffered from bad luck . She has been dependent on you since childhood . You suddenly have a new pet . It is normal that she is not happy at the moment . Now she has realized the seriousness of the situation . I believe our niece will not make such a mistake again in the future . ”
Sheng Qianmo snorted, but didn’t say anything .
Obviously, he had to take into account his Second Brother .
Seeing this, Sheng Lingyun added, “When I went to see niece Gu, I saw that she was thin again, crying all the time, and she refused to take the medicine as well . I promised to come talk to you, and only then did she agree to take the medicine . Fourth Brother, she is our niece . There is no reason why an elder should be angry with a child, is there?”
Sheng Qianmo sank, “This Prince knows how far to go . ”
Hearing this, Sheng Lingyun knew that his brother agreed with his plea, and his heart was relieved to know that his trip had not been in vain .
