Chapter 193: Mother and Son

The banquet at the Princess Mansion concluded amidst the laughter and chatter of the guests.

The ladies and young misses lingered with reluctance, feeling they hadn't seen enough, far from enough.

Treasure Piggy, hoisted up by his father, felt he hadn't performed enough, not nearly enough.

Only the wounded world of Grand Commander Lu Yuan found some semblance of completion.

He glared coldly at the little rascal in his hands.

The little rascal looked utterly innocent, clueless about what mistake he had made, seemingly still puzzled why everyone was praising him while his miserly scoundrel of a father was fuming.

Not realizing his fortune, he plainly thought, "So many people like baby me."

Ultimately, it was Meng Qianqian, risking life and limb, who stepped forward to rescue the little one from fire and water.

"How strange, where did Mother go?"

Meng Qianqian glanced around in confusion and asked Lu Yuan, "Did you see her?"

"No."

Lu Yuan responded flatly.
