“Nalin, you can’t do this,” the leader said with a frown.

“Why not? She embarra.s.sed your daughter like that!” Sen Nalin pouted.

“You didn’t know the other party’s strength, yet you just had to compete with her. You were in the wrong in the first place.” Although the leader doted on this daughter, he didn’t dote on her so much that he couldn’t differentiate right from wrong.

He would save his daughter’s face in public, but in private, he would teach her a lesson.

“Daddy!” Sen Nalin was already furious to begin with. Now that he had said that, she was even angrier.

He didn’t stand up for her and was even scolding her like this!

“Nalin, you’re not young anymore. You should be more sensible. You know that last year, there was a drought and many places had no harvests. Now, there are still many people who can’t eat their fill. Bo Junyan and Mu Huan can bring about great benefits.”

Although they were the owners of this place, this was a poor and backward place. He could not disregard the livelihood of the citizens.

Sen Nalin understood this logic, but she could not take it lying down.

“Those who went hunting are family. No one will laugh at you.” The leader understood his daughter’s thoughts.

“Of course they will! Right now, they might be laughing at me at home!” Those cousins would definitely take the opportunity to laugh at her!

“As long as they don’t laugh at you in front of you, it’s fine. You don’t have to worry about what others do behind your back.” In the dark, people would even curse him, their leader. This was something that couldn’t be controlled.

“I don’t want it!” Sen Nalin said willfully.

She didn’t want it. She couldn’t just let it go like this!

When the leader saw that she was still like this despite what he had said, his expression darkened in anger. “Even if you don’t want it, you have to!”

“Daddy!”

“Alright, go back to your room and rest!” the leader said as he walked toward the desk, indicating that he was going to be busy.

Sen Nalin knew that it was useless for her to say anything else when her father was like this. She could only leave angrily.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave…

“Don’t go looking for trouble with them. Don’t make Daddy angry!” The leader knew very well what his daughter was like. He was afraid that since she couldn’t get any support from him, she would go make a move by herself.

Sen Nalin wanted to say something.

But the leader warned her again, “Don’t make Daddy get angry and do anything to you.”

Sen Nalin had come here because she wanted her daddy to stand up for her. Who knew that not only would he not stand up for her, but he would even reprimand her? And now, he even threatened her!

This made her even angrier!

Her father had never said anything harsh to her in her life, and now he was threatening her!

This was all Mu Huan’s fault!

In this world, there were such people who pushed all the blame onto others. No matter how wrong one was, the person who deserved to die was someone else. She had done nothing wrong.

After returning to her room, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she could not let this matter rest. Suddenly, she thought of Ling Wei.

Hence, she called her.

“Count me in on how you plan to deal with Mu Huan!”

Ling Wei raised her eyebrows slightly. She had thought that she might come to find her, but she did not expect her to find her so quickly and say it so directly. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Don’t pretend with me. I’ve already seen through it. There’s no point in pretending like this!” Sen Nalin, who was in a state of frustration, was in no mood to listen to her hypocritical words.

“I really don’t know what you’re talking about,” Ling Wei continued.

Sen Nalin knew that she did not want to talk about this over the phone, so she said, “Where are you now? I’ll go look for you!”
