Jiang Ning had just emerged from the forest when she saw Huo Miao standing in front of Qi Xingzhou, saying something.
Having lived with the Huo family for two years, Jiang Ning knew Huo Miao's true nature like the back of her hand and surmised she might be distorting the truth in front of Qi Xingzhou. So she approached quietly, careful not to alert them, and then she heard Huo Miao's words.
The ancestors weren't wrong; indeed, a dog can't spit out ivory.
Jiang Ning warned Huo Miao and Huo Ziheng before: since they had severed ties, they should stop mentioning her two years with the Huo family.
Going back with the Huo family members was the most mistaken decision Jiang Ning had ever made.
Those two years at the Huo's were her dark past. Whether it was emotionally, physically, in time, or money, Jiang Ning had given a lot and owed the Huo family nothing.
Her unhappiness at the Huo residence was largely due to Huo Miao's constant interference.
