Chapter 638: Chapter 643: Don’t Want to Know Him!_1
Chen Yiling first tugged Qiao Duo’er to sit on the sofa before they started to chat leisurely.
"It was Lord Qin who sent me here, the garrison troops arrived at White Stone Town last night, he went to lead the way for the garrison troops, and if it weren’t for Bai Yifan, I would have come earlier."
Chen Yiling said proudly, she too was a person on official duty.
Qiao Duo’er, puzzled, wondered how Bai Yifan had been brought into this again?
Chen Yiling explained, "That jerk locked himself up in the dungeon, as if he had gone crazy. I tried to talk him out of it for a long time, but he refused to come out, insisting that he deserved it, and I had no clue what was going on."
"He did it to protect his cousin."
Qiao Duo’er pouted and spilled everything Li Mu’er had done.
"Li Mu’er’s uncle is the Lord Tong Zhi of Mansion City; I reckon it won’t be easy to handle this."
Chen Yiling, chin in hand, looked troubled.
Given the mess Li Mu’er had made, it wouldn’t be excessive to take her out and chop her, no, at least ten times!
But her backer was there, making it really difficult to lay a hand on her.
After all, as long as she didn’t confess, there was nothing anyone could do to her since there was no evidence.
"No worries, Old Granny Bai’s birthday is coming soon." Qiao Duo’er raised her eyebrows.
As long as they met, wouldn’t she have the chance to deal with Li Mu’er?
Chen Yiling gave a thumbs up, "If you need help, just let me know, and I’ll make sure it’s taken care of."
"You have my word!"
"I will not break my promise!"
The two women exchanged smiles, making Tan Zhenghong, who had just arrived, shudder.
Indeed, women, especially the kind of violent woman like his wife, were creatures not to be offended.
Yet how could he find her utterly adorable?
Chen Yiling had brought a big group of people over, and Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong didn’t have to do anything anymore, just eat and drink their fill.
Not long after they had finished dinner, ChunTao brought them soup.
"This is the donkey-hide gelatin and beef soup specially made by my young lady, the best for nourishing blood."
Qiao Duo’er quickly shook her head, "I’m already full, Ah Hong is in there, you can take it to him."
"No, you and Zheng Hong both have to drink it, I’m here to supervise your recovery!"
Unable to resist Chen Yiling, Qiao Duo’er reluctantly took the bowl and drank. After drinking half of it, she put it aside.
Chen Yiling grew anxious and said, "Bring me that Medicine Diet Book of mine, cook various recipes, and make sure Duo’er doesn’t grow tired of the food."
"I’ll look into it and prepare some supper for you later."
"Off you go!"
"Ling’er, have you ever felt that you’re particularly suited for raising pigs?" Qiao Duo’er said, pouting.
Eating after sleeping, sleeping after eating, she felt she couldn’t take it anymore.
Chen Yiling pouted and said, "You don’t know the blessings you have; I’ve never even taken care of my parents like this!"
Qiao Duo’er simply felt too powerless to retort; it had been like this for several days. Not just Chen Yiling, but Aunt Huang, Chao Lian, and Hu’s Clan had sent many soups and broths.
Not only had she replenished her blood, but she had also gained quite a bit of weight, looking much plumper.
Chen Yiling, satisfied, caressed Qiao Duo’er’s cheek, "You’re getting more and more beautiful. If I were a man, I’d marry you."
"I’ve just barely escaped death; don’t harm me."
Qiao Duo’er increased the distance between them and Chen Yiling, guarding against the possible advances of this female wolf.
If Lord Qin found out, he would surely think she had seduced Yi Ling, and then he would definitely be harsh with her.
Indeed... men with strong possessiveness are not to be provoked.
Chen Yiling pouted and said, "Don’t mention that jerk to me, I don’t wish to know him at all!"
