Chapter 5324: Dissatisfaction
Madam Liang knew her cousin well. She was the kind of person who only came when she needed something. For her to visit so politely today, she must surely have a favor to ask.
Seeing Madam Liang's coldness, Madam Lin felt rebuffed. Her face stiffened as she said, "Oh, it's nothing too important, it's just... Miao'er, she was captured by people from Heavenly Fate and hasn't been released yet. I'm anxious, and my husband said he already consulted the Prince last time, but I don't know..."
Madam Liang quickly withdrew her hand, saying nervously, "I am but a woman, a mere housewife. I completely don't understand what you're saying to me."
"That Heavenly Fate, I, I don't know, nor do I understand. You, you mustn't ask me, don't ask." Saying this, she seemed very flustered, trembling all over.
Madam Lin looked at her in confusion. "Cousin, why are you so scared?"
Madam Liang shivered. "It's not fear."
It's about not wanting trouble! The matter of Heavenly Fate, and she's coming to ask a powerless housewife like her for help? What kind of situation is this?
"Cousin, you must help our Miao'er!" Madam Lin said, about to kneel before Madam Liang.
Madam Liang quickly went to help her up, saying repeatedly, "Madam Lin, it's not that I don't want to help you. But, as a helpless woman, I truly can't be of much assistance."
"Then, then take me to see the Prince. The Prince cannot refuse to help us." Madam Lin clutched Madam Liang's hand, a hint of hysterical madness in her eyes. "My husband said that he has handled many important matters for your Prince. The Prince cannot ignore our Miao'er!"
"Madam, Madam!" Urgent footsteps came from outside, and a middle-aged man rushed in, glaring at Madam Lin, his eyes almost spitting fire.
"Madam, what are you doing here? Hurry and come back with me; don't disturb Madam Su!"
"Husband, why are you dragging me? If it weren't for you helping their Prince to encircle and intercept the Crown Prince returning from Huiping Village, how would our Lin family have been targeted by the Crown Prince?"
"Our subsequent progress was halted, wasn't it because we offended the Crown Prince?"
"Husband, why do you keep dragging me? Am I not speaking the truth? If it weren't for you helping the Prince to start that Lin Family Wine House, wanting to crush the Crown Princess's Butterfly Collection Pavilion, how would our Lin family have further offended the Crown Princess?!"
"Enough, shut up!" The Lin family head furiously cursed.
Then, a cold voice came from outside the door, "Oh? It seems Madam Lin is quite displeased with this Prince."
Madam Lin, arm-in-arm with Mo Xikang, walked in, her eyes flickering slightly when she saw her biological mother.
Madam Lin's anger flared, and she couldn't help but retort, "Displeasure is not something I dare to show, it's just that this madam has a few minor grievances with His Royal Highness's actions."
"Shut up!" The Lin family head wished he could slap this foolish woman to death. How could she be so stupid? This fool!
Who does she think she's facing right now?
That's Prince Zheng! The Great Emperor's only adopted son. For her to speak so audaciously to Prince Zheng, did she have a death wish?
But Madam Lin had long since thrown caution to the wind for her daughter Lin Miao'er's life. If she didn't fight now, if she didn't struggle to get her daughter's life back, the longer she delayed, the more her inner anxieties would deepen.
That was her only biological daughter.
