Chapter 483: Poor Places Yield Terrible People【2】 Xie Xuning felt lucky and grateful that his daughter, Tianxin, turned out to be a kind young woman despite growing up in such an environment. Worse could have happened to his daughter.

Her heart was so pure.

Their daughter was the best daughter in the world. Ye Linlang would have been proud of her.

Tonight’s banquet was more like a farce. The tragedy that Grandmother experienced had caused sadness to some people.

At this time, those who lied and took bribes left quietly.

Grandmother watched them leave sheepishly. This time, she didn’t force it and instructed the attendants to carry on.

The music continued.

The serving continued.

But the previous lively atmosphere did not return. Everyone’s heart was full of anxiety.

Xie Xuning wasn’t angry, nor was he infuriated. He acted just as usual, but he was still apprehensive and cold.

That night, Xie Xuning lit up the fireworks.

One by one, fireworks shoot up skyward in the quiet town.

They illuminated the small town, lighting up its dark corners.

Someone asked quietly, “Who is Xie Xuning?”

The others were all taken aback.

Who was Xie Xuning?

He was the youngest commander of the empire.

He commanded thousands of soldiers.

He was extremely powerful and influential.

However, these people dared to lie to him for a hundred yuan.

These people were scared and worried that Commander Xie would settle accounts with them. The thought of going to jail worried them.

Unbeknown to them, Xie Xuning wouldn’t bother with them.

Xie Xuning was trying to find the culprit who bribed them to tell lies.

When the banquet was over, the cook and the kitchen staff ate together at the table.

Grandmother had no appetite. The cook tried to comfort her. “Old Sister, don’t think about it too much. Look on the bright side. You are with your son-in-law, and he treats you well.”

Grandmother didn’t respond and took a sip of wine.

She missed her daughter.

She missed Linlang.

She really did.

Over the years, she hated, resented, and blamed her daughter, who took her own life because of a man. It was bad enough that she came home pregnant, but to take her own life over a man, that was unthinkable.

She hated her daughter for just leaving like that without regard for her.

She simply abandoned her and Tianxin here. They didn’t hear from her for decades.

However, she missed her terribly.

She missed her daughter.

Her Linlang was the best daughter in the world. She was obedient and sensible. She didn’t need to worry about her since she was a child. She performed well academically, and then she became a doctor. She was the daughter any parent would wish to have.

Her daughter, her Linlang...

She was her pride.

These people ruined her daughter’s good life.

“It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have left back then.”

Grandmother was very sad. If she hadn’t been asked to claim the corpse, how could she have left Jiameng Town?

If she hadn’t left Jiameng Town, these people wouldn’t have the opportunity to lie.

“Old Sister, you have to believe in fate,” the cook encouraged. “This is all fate.”

Grandmother and the cook clinked glasses together. Seeing Grandmother like this, Ye Tianxin and Xie Xuning were helpless. They were racking their brains thinking of how they should console the grandma.

“Tianxin?”

Ye Tianxin walked to her Grandmother’s side and sat down. She leaned her head on her shoulder.

“You are the best grandmother in the world.”

Grandmother held the wine glass. After a slight pause, she sighed and put down the glass.
