The entire Marquis's mansion regrets it? Too late, their little one has become the darling of t

"You fiend, how dare you act so presumptuously! Show yourself at once!"

Suddenly, a Taoist priest in a yellow robe burst in, pointing his sword at Yu Ningyao.

Everyone was startled upon hearing this.

Yu Ningyao put her fingers in her mouth, looking completely innocent.

Actually, she was so panicked that she needed to pee again.

Yu Ningyao frantically called for the system in her mind:

[System, system, system! Did he call me a monster because he saw you?]

The system quickly offered words of comfort:

[Host, please rest assured, apart from you, no one else in this world will know of my existence.]

Yu Ningyao: [So what's going on here?]

After the system said "wait a moment," it immediately went to check what was going on.

Yu Ningyao was extremely flustered, waiting for its response.

"Master, how could there be a demon in our manor?" Cui Ruixin asked, feigning surprise as she walked over.

"This Taoist priest has traveled far and wide, capturing countless demons and evil spirits. Today, passing by the Marquis's residence, I saw black mist rising into the sky, indicating that a demon was causing trouble there. Therefore, I broke in to capture the demon." The yellow-robed Taoist priest said solemnly.

These words startled everyone present.

evildoer?

Where are the demons?

Shen Jinzhu quickly gave her maid a meaningful look: "Quickly take Miss away, don't frighten her."

"Stop!" A yellow talisman flew out from the sleeve of the yellow-robed Taoist and stuck directly to Yu Ningyao's face.

"Put down this monster immediately!"

"Nonsense! How could my daughter be a demon!" Yu Kangjing was furious.

"Third brother, don't worry. The Taoist priest doesn't necessarily mean that Ning Yao is a demon. Maybe a demon has possessed her. Please step aside and let the Taoist priest remove the demon. That's the real way to protect Ning Yao," Cui Ruixin quickly stepped forward to persuade her.

Her words made Yu Kangjing somewhat relent.

If a demon has indeed possessed my daughter, it would be best to have the Taoist priest take a look.

"You say there are monsters, so there are monsters? What evidence do you have?" Shen Jinzhu frowned slightly.

The Taoist priest's arrival was too sudden, and he came straight for her daughter, which she found rather strange.

She had been traveling with her parents since she was a child, and she had seen many of the tricks of charlatans.

The Taoist priest looked ethereal and seemed to possess some genuine skills, but she still dared not easily believe him.

The Taoist priest in the yellow robe closed his eyes, his fingers flying as he made hand seals, and then said, "I have calculated that you picked up this child twenty-eight days ago, didn't you?"

After hesitating for a moment, Yu Kangjing nodded.

The yellow-robed Taoist continued, "After this child came to your house, he left again and then came back."

Yu Kangjing nodded again, his belief growing stronger.

“Five days ago, this child was injured on the forehead,” the yellow-robed Taoist priest said with certainty.

Everyone looked at Yu Ningyao; her forehead was smooth and fair, with no visible scars.

But Cui Ruixin nodded hastily: "That's right. The two children were playing that day, and Ning Yao accidentally hurt her forehead."

With her corroboration, everyone present believed that the yellow-robed Taoist priest was indeed a reclusive master.

Yu Ningyao bit her fingernails, feeling somewhat anxious.

Could it be that she's really possessed by some unseen monster?

Will he not even live to be two years old?

Fortunately, the system's voice came online just in time.

[Host, it was all Cui Ruixin's doing.]

[This yellow-robed Taoist priest was invited by her, specifically to drive you out of the Marquis's residence.]

Yu Ningyao: ?

What hatred or resentment.

Is Cui Ruixin determined to get rid of her?

"This child is extremely unlucky. If she continues to stay in the Marquis's mansion, she will offend your parents, and they will surely die of a serious illness in three months." The yellow-robed Taoist priest threw out these words, leaving Yu Kangjing and his wife dumbfounded.

Upon hearing this, the old Marquis and his wife immediately stood up.

"This is a jinx, you can't keep her, get rid of her right away."

“That’s right, a monster must never be kept in the manor.”

Yu Kangjing and Shen Jinzhu were very reluctant to part.

But since the Taoist priest had said that, and her parents were furious, they dared not ask Yu Ningyao to stay.

[I'm doomed, I'm really going to be kicked out this time.]

Yu Ningyao's mind raced, but she couldn't come up with a solution no matter what she tried.

That's a really harsh statement.

If they force her to stay, and something happens to the two elders of the Marquis's mansion, the third branch of the family will be criticized and gossiped about for the rest of their lives.

They definitely won't keep her.

“There’s no need to abandon her. Give me the child, and I’ll take her and raise her. Once her evil nature is gone, you two can go to the Taoist temple and bring her back.” The yellow-robed Taoist priest said earnestly.

"What are you all standing there for? Give him the child right now!" the old marquis ordered angrily.

The old lady quickly got up and invited Cui Ruixin to see the guests off.

Torn between his daughter and his parents, Yu Kangjing was caught in a dilemma.

"Daddy, hug me." Yu Ningyao reached out to Yu Kangjing, trying to awaken his fatherly heart.

Upon hearing those words from their first meeting, Yu Kangjing's eyes instantly reddened.

He couldn't believe that the obedient daughter he had taken in could be some kind of monster.

The old lady shouted angrily, "What are you standing there for? Get rid of this monster right now! Do you want to kill me and your father?"

"Mom, hug me." Yu Ningyao looked at Shen Jinzhu again.

Shen Jinzhu couldn't help but wipe away her tears.

Seeing the guests leave, Shen Jinzhu gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of the old lady.

“Mother, none of us know anything about this Taoist priest. What if he's a human trafficker? Why don't we send Yaoyao out of the manor to be raised for now? If you two are both alright after three months, we can bring her back, okay?”

Yu Ningyao felt like she was about to pee her eyes.

She begged Shen Jinzhu, just wanting to take a gamble.

But she never expected that the woman would be willing to kneel down for her.

Waaaaah, is this what it feels like to have a mother?

Indeed, a child with a mother is a treasure.

Upon hearing his wife's words, Yu Kangjing hurriedly knelt down as well: "That's right, Father, Mother, this Taoist priest has an unknown background, he might be a fraud."

"Waaaaah, Grandfather and Grandmother, please don't send my sister away, please!" Yu Ziying ran over and hugged the old Marquis's leg, wailing loudly.

Yu Ziheng and Yu Zicong also knelt down.

"Please, Grandparents, let my sister stay at the estate for a few months before bringing her back."

"You actually doubt this Taoist priest?" The yellow-robed Taoist sneered, then took out a talisman and flicked it with his finger, and the talisman burst into flames.

"go--!"

The talisman immediately flew towards Yu Ningyao's direction.

"No!" Shen Jinzhu panicked and lunged forward to try and block the burning talisman.

How painful it would be if that fire fell on her precious baby!

Children's skin is very delicate when they are young.

"Mother!" Yu Ningyao burst into tears.

She didn't want Shen Jinzhu to get hurt because of her.

Anyway, she was injured, but she'll be back to normal the next day.

She's not afraid of a little pain!

But to everyone's surprise, before the talisman even touched Yu Ningyao, it changed direction and flew towards Cui Ruixin.
