“Who’s spouting nonsense here?” Old Master Gu came down from upstairs and said, “The Gu family can’t tolerate others being presumptuous.”

Father Cheng could make a scene as an elder, but he did not have the confidence to face Old Master Gu. After all, this was the head of one of the three aristocratic families, not someone he could afford to offend.

Old Master Gu sat on the sofa majestically and said, “Why did you come to our house?

Father Cheng smiled apologetically and said, “I’m here to persuade my daughter. She’s young and insensible. She insisted on a divorce and even stayed with Miss Gu. She’s really insensible.”

Cheng Xi said angrily, “Devon beat and scolded us mother and daughter. Can’t I mention divorce?

Father Cheng subconsciously wanted to scold her, but when he met Old Master Gu’s eyes, he swallowed his words. He did not dare to be impudent in front of Old Master Gu.

Xiao Jing held Yunbao in his arms and said, “My daughter can say whatever she wants in her own house. You don’t have to lecture her.”

He had never been friendly to outsiders, not to mention that Father Cheng was criticizing Yunbao. Of course, Xiao Jing did not treat him well.

Yunbao was not as agitated as them, because she did not know Father and Mother Cheng. Their accusations would not make her sad. She looked up and said, “Why do you only love Devon and not Aunt Cheng Xi?”

Father Cheng was stumped by the question and immediately replied, “What love? We’re doing this for our daughters own good.”

“But Aunt Cheng Xi has already said that she wants a divorce because she’s not doing well. If you love Aunt Cheng Xi, your daughter, then why don’t you agree?” Yunbao couldn’t understand. “Devon doesn’t want a divorce. You persuaded Aunt Cheng Xi to help him. In that case, you should love Devon.” Yunbao’s logic shocked everyone, but when they thought about it carefully, it was true. Father and Mother Cheng had helped Devon, but they had not considered Cheng Xi and Lily’s happiness.

Cheng Xi smiled mockingly and said, “Yunbao is right. Compared to me, your daughter, you love Devon more because he’s the capital you can brag about to the outside world. You want people to envy you for having a good son-in-law.

For this, you can sacrifice your daughter’s lifetime of happiness.”

When Mother Cheng heard Cheng Xi’s words, she shook her head and said, “It’s not like that. I love you. I just don’t want you to be laughed at as a divorcee. ”

“If anyone wants to laugh, so be it!” Cheng Xi said firmly. “My own happiness is the most important.”

Before today, Cheng Xi had fantasized about her parents’ support, but now she no longer needed it. This was her life that she had to make her own decisions.

Yunbao was right. Parents might not love their children. She could not really go back just because she was greedy for her parents’ warmth. That would be no different from going to hell for her and Lily.

Father Cheng wanted to say something else; however, under the threatening eyes of all the people in the Gu family, he could only shut his mouth and leave the Gu residence bitterly.

After their figures disappeared at the door, Cheng Xi sat weakly on the sofa and said sadly, “I’m afraid I won’t have parents in the future.”

Lily quickly walked over and hugged her. “Mommy, you still have me. I’ll always be with Mommy.”

Cheng Xi hugged Lily, the two of them leaning on each other. The Gu family’s eight sons sighed at the difficulties of this mother-daughter pair. They had finally left Devon, but they still could not get the support of their family.

Unexpectedly, Yunbao walked over and hugged the two of them. She said,

“Don’t be afraid. Yunbao will protect you.”

Seeing this, Gu Teng held Xiao Jing’s arm and said, “Our daughter is like the sun, willing to share her warmth with everyone.”

Everyone agreed with Gu Teng’s words. They loved Yunbao at first because she was Gu Tengs daughter, but later on, they loved her from the bottom of their hearts.

This was because Yunbao was just as Gu Teng had said. She was clearly still a child, but she was willing to use her ability to protect everyone.

Lily and Cheng Xi hugged Yunbao and kept thanking her. If not for Yunbao and the others, they would not have been able to escape. Yunbao was their savior.

After crying, Lily wiped away the tears on her face and said, “I want to learn magic from you in the future. I can protect Mommy in the future.”

Yunbao nodded and said, “I’ll teach everything to you. You can protect your Mom in the future.”

Gu Teng felt that something was amiss and said, “Yunbao is still a child. Can she teach Lily well?”

Her worry was reasonable. Although Yunbao’s cultivation level was high, she had not learned spells for long, and Song Yun was not by her side to teach her now.

If Yunbao became Lily’s teacher, would she lead her astray?
