Deputy Prefect Guan and his wife were left stunned.
Mrs. Guan was about to speak when Deputy Prefect Guan gave her a warning look. He then smiled and bowed sincerely, saying, "Yes, yes. Lord is right. I will certainly follow your instructions. Lord, please rest assured."
Shao Yunduan nodded. "You may leave now."
"Thank you, Lord. I apologize again for the disturbance."
Deputy Prefect Guan bowed once more and exited the room with Mrs. Guan.
As soon as they left, Shao Yunduan rushed back to the bedroom.
"My love…"
"I'm fine." Qiao Xuan smiled and gently squeezed Shao Yunduan's hands. She reassured him, saying, "Caiyue and Lixia protected me, and Guan Jialing is just a child. How much harm could he cause? I'm truly fine, don't worry."
"I just felt that we couldn't let them off so easily. We had to put on an act."
Children could indeed be quite troublesome.
