Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As Xia Muqing ate her breakfast quietly, the entire Xia residence was in an uproar.

The night before, a rumor had spread in the city.

When King Zhennan was visiting the Xia family, the young mistress of the Xia family, Xia Churan, accidentally fell into the water and he had seen her body.

Everyone was laughing at Xia Churan, but they were also envious of her luck. They naturally felt that after this incident, King Zhennan would definitely marry Xia Churan.

In this way, the two young mistresses in the Xia family would enter the king’s residence at the same time. This was the first time such a thing had happened in the country.

When Xia Churan heard the news, she scurried to Xia Jingtian and cried, “Father, news of me falling into the water and being seen by King Zhennan has spread. I’m too ashamed to live.”

Ruan Yu also held a handkerchief and gently rubbed the corner of her eyes as she sobbed, “My poor daughter.”

Xia Jingtian initially assumed that they were the ones responsible for the incident. After all, Xia Churan’s motive for being closer to Ye Qingxuan yesterday was very obvious. But now that he saw how sad the two of them were, he couldn’t be entirely sure.

Seeing that Xia Jingtian didn’t react, Xia Churan made up her mind and said, “Father, after this incident, I don’t have the dignity to live anymore. I might as well bang my head against the wall.”

With that, she moved to knock her head into a pillar nearby.

Seizing the opportunity, Ruan Yu quickly hugged her and cried, “Master, can you watch Churan die?”

This sight made Xia Jingtian a little annoyed. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, “All right, leave this to me.”

He had his own selfish motives too. From the looks of it now, Xia Muqing wasn’t too obedient. If she married into the king’s residence, he might not be able to use her. If he used this opportunity to recruit Xia Churan into the king’s residence, the relationship between the Xia residence and the king would be completely solidified.

Ruan Yu shot Xia Churan a glance, and she stopped sobbing. She lowered her head and kneeled on the ground, hiding the smile on her face.

After Xia Jingtian pondered about it carefully, his expression became much better. He said, “All right, both of you can go back first. This might not be a bad thing.”

Hearing that, they knew that they had achieved their goal, and they immediately nodded and left.

After contemplating, Xia Jingtian went to Xia Muqing’s courtyard.

Xia Muqing was changing the black eagle’s dressing when she saw the little phoenix flying in. “Flower, your bad father is here.”

Ever since Xia Jingtian took Xia Muqing away the last time, it had been addressing Xia Jingtian as her bad father.

Xia Muqing paused her hand and said, “All right, I understand.”

Seeing that she was applying medicine for the black eagle, the little phoenix’s eyes darted around before flying out again.

Xia Muqing’s actions quickened. After she was done and left the room, she realized that Xia Jingtian had yet to enter.

What was going on?

Puzzled, she walked out. She had just turned around a corner when she heard a commotion outside.

“You little beast! Get lost! Get lost!”

“Ahhhh, you damned bird. Let’s see if I can’t get someone to roast you today.”

“All of you, go! Grab it!”

When Xia Muqing walked out, she saw Xia Jingtian leading the servants in a circle around the little phoenix. The little phoenix kept dodging and didn’t forget to grab some rocks to throw at their heads.

Xia Jingtian’s face had already been riddled with bruises. He was furious and had completely forgotten his purpose here. He was determined to capture that annoying little bird.

“Phoenix, come here.”

Xia Muqing quickly called out. Her voice was filled with worry but she didn’t chide her.

Only then did Xia Jingtian regain some of his composure. “Did you raise that beast?”
