The servants kneeled on the ground, not even having the courage to raise their heads to look at Duan Qiong.
Duan Qiong lowered his eyes, and when he looked at Xiao Ya again, those eyes were full of tenderness. He caressed her hair and said gently, “Ya’er, wait for me here. I’m going to find my father, and I’ll be back soon to accompany you…”

Duan Manor.
An old man sat calmly in his luxurious study room.
He probably knew that Duan Qiong would still come looking for him, so he was unperturbed when he saw Duan Qiong rus.h.i.+ng in anger.
“What you gave me isn’t Purple Ginseng!” Duan Qiong smashed his fist on the desk. His voice was filled with anger.
The old man smiled calmly, “Of course not. How could I use such a good spirit herb to save a useless person.”
“Father! She’s my wife. We are legally married!”
“Legally married?” The old man sneered. “You brought her in while I was not in Duan Manor, so that’s what you called legally married? She’s a bad woman! Tian’er is much better than her.”
Marriage without his blessing was not counted as a legal marriage! If he had not left Duan Manor for something back then, would that woman still be able to enter his Duan family?
“In any case, she and I are legally married, and my grandfather has witnessed our marriage!”
Duan Dan frowned. “Your grandfather has already pa.s.sed away, and what you’re doing is very unfilial! Furthermore, I am your father, so you must have my blessing, not your grandfather!”
Even if his grandfather was still alive, his father was the only one who could make the decisions for him.
Duan Dan was the one who had established the Duan family’s empire, and even though his grandfather was the eldest in this family, he had no power in the Duan family. Duan Dan was the only one who could make the decisions in the Duan family!
‘A marriage witnessed by that old man was illegal!’
“Father!” Duan Qiong clenched his fists tightly. “No matter what, you shouldn’t have hurt her! You’ve sent people to hunt her down and kill her, and now you’re using me to harm her. Why are you treating her like this? Why?” Duan Qiong shouted at him angrily, his body trembling with anger.
“Why? Don’t you understand?” Duan Dan stood up and smiled coldly. “I just poisoned her. The antidote is in my hands. She won’t die for now. You have to stay in Tian’er’s room tonight. I want a grandson from you and Tian’er. Then, I’ll give you the antidote.”
Duan Qiong’s heart hurt as if it was punched hard by someone. “Why do you have to force me? Am I even your son?”
“It’s because you’re my son that I’m helping you like this. In the future, you’ll understand that everything I do is for your good! That woman would bring no good to you. With her condition right now, she’ll only drag you down and get you killed sooner or later!”
Duan Dan’s face was cold. “It’s getting late. You should go to Tian’er’s room tonight. Otherwise, without my antidote, she will surely die! I’ll send someone to guard the door, so you cannot leave Tian’er’s room. I’ll immediately kill that woman if you try to fool me!”
Duan Qiong stared at his father with eyes full of hatred for a few seconds before turning around and walking out of the study…
