C2 Prime Minister's Father

A burly man in luxurious clothing walked into the room and saw many maidservants kneeling on the floor.

He looked at the person on the bed. She was still as quiet and beautiful as before.

He murmured, "Sis, why are you …"

The girl stood up when she heard the sound.

She turned around and walked towards Xia Li, stopping a foot away from him.

She raised her head to look at Xia Li, her eyes unperturbed. Even Xia Li who had been galloping around the government for many years couldn't understand the hidden meaning behind her gaze.

Xia Li looked at his daughter's undeveloped, yet somewhat like her mother's face and couldn't help but think of all the times he had neglected her.

Because of Yun Qing's proud and aloof nature, not only did she not curry favor with him, she even kept detaching herself from him. The moment he got angry, he no longer cared about the mother and daughter, and started to pamper his concubine.

As he thought of this, Xia Li stretched out his hand, wanting to caress the girl's head. However, he didn't know that the girl had taken a wrong step to the side, avoiding him.

Xia Li's hand stopped in the air. He lifted it, but neither lifted it nor lowered it. He felt extremely awkward.

The girl no longer looked at him and walked out of the room.

The girl's surname was Xia Yuyan, and she was the eldest daughter of the Minister of the Right, Xia Li.

Yun Qing's funeral was done in a grand manner. She was the Prime Minister's wife after all, and she was the daughter of General Yun, so no matter what, she could not lose face.

As for Xia Yuyan, she could only laugh coldly in her heart as she watched this scene. When he was still alive, he had not paid any attention to the matter. Now that he had made such a big fuss, wasn't it all for the sake of the Residence of General Yun?

"Yan'er, my poor granddaughter." When Old Madam Yun saw Xia Yuyan, she hugged her and cried non-stop.

"Grandmother, don't cry anymore. Even your mother wouldn't be able to stay away from you if you hurt her body."

Old Mistress Yun looked at Xia Yuyan's thoughtful appearance with relief, but more of her heart was filled with sorrow and worry.

She was only a six year old little girl. She was the age where she would act like a spoiled child in the arms of her parents, but now she was going to experience the pain of losing her mother.

"Yan'er, follow grandmother back to the Yun family." In the end, Old Madam Yun was still worried about leaving Xia Yuyan behind.

All these years, she had understood Old Madam Yun's attitude towards Xia Li, his mother, and his daughter. However, seeing that he had never owed them anything, and that Yun Qing did not seem to care at all, it was not appropriate for an outsider like her to interfere.

However, now that his daughter had left, only Yuyan was left. Furthermore, Xia Li had many concubines, she was truly worried that they would bully Xia Yuyan.

"Since grandmother had good intentions, Yuyan should not refuse, but Yuyan still has to mourn for her mother, so we can't leave Xia Manor for the time being."

Moreover, she couldn't believe that her mother's death was an accident. She had a feeling that someone was controlling everything from behind the scenes, so she had to find this person. However, in case Old Mistress Yun was worried, she did not say the rest.

Old Mistress Yun's eyes blazed as she looked at Xia Yuyan, who seemed to be so sensible.

Old General Yun walked in the direction of Old Madam Yun and Xia Yuyan.

He looked at Xia Yuyan, his eyes filled with love and worry. His daughter naturally doted on Yun Qing as well. As for Yun Qing, after she had married into the Prime Minister's Estate, she would often bring Xia Yuyan back to the Yun Family.

Xia Yuyan looked at her grandfather. His cold eyes were no longer there, but rather red and swollen. The once energetic general had now become a sad old man who had lost his beloved daughter.

"Zi Xi, you stay here and protect Miss Biao."

"Yes."

Old General Yun knew that Xia Yuyan had left the Xia Residence at this very moment, so he chose a woman with decent martial arts from the Residence of Yun to stay and protect her.

"It's time for us to go back." Old General Yun said as he looked at Old Mistress Yun.

Although Old Mistress Yun was unwilling to leave, she knew that she had no choice.

Thus, she released Xia Yuyan's arms and instructed, "Yan'er, do not let yourself be bullied. If someone tries to bully you, you must bully them back multiple times.

"Yan'er understands."

After hearing everything, Old Mistress Yun left with Old General Yun.
