Unfortunately, she did not think it through.
At least, she should have waited for Venerable Qiu Hui to leave before she made her move.
By the time Qiu Hui returned, everything had become difficult.
Her father was a Nine Gate Venerable. Even if she made an irreparable mistake, he would not be too harsh with her…
So…
She had indeed made a wrong move back then.
Creak…
The door was pushed open again.
Nan Luo looked up and saw Hui Yan standing in her doorway.
Tears suddenly flowed from her eyes, and her eyes were red.
Nan Luo raised her hand, wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and smiled faintly.
“Father, didn’t you come just now? Why did you come again?”
Hui Yan sighed lightly. His daughter’s state this time made him feel at ease.
However, he was afraid that if he let her go out, Qiu Hui would have an excuse to find her trouble again.
He only had a daughter, and he would protect her at any cost. How could he allow someone to bully her?
However, he was not the only one who could decide in Nine Gate. He had no choice but to punish his daughter according to the rules.
“You’er…”
“Father, you don’t have to say anything more. I understand…”
Nan Luo shook her head and smiled bitterly. “You did it all for my good. How can I not understand your good intentions? You can lock me in the house for the rest of my life. You don’t have to worry about me.”
Initially, Hui Yan’s heart was full of guilt, and after hearing Nan Luo’s words, his heart hurt even more and was filled with sorrow.
“You’er, I’m sorry…”
Nan Luo smiled, her eyes filled with bitterness.
“Father, you don’t need to feel guilty. I deserve it… I have just recovered from my injuries in the past few days. That’s why I plan to go out for a walk. I didn’t expect that I can’t even walk around the courtyard.”
There was bitterness on Nan Luo’s lips, and a trace of disappointment appeared in her eyes.
Hui Yan opened his mouth, staring at Nan Luo’s expressionless face, his heart finally softened a bit.
“You’er, I’ll talk to the servants later. You can walk freely here but don’t go out of the courtyard. Otherwise, I’m afraid Qiu Hui will find trouble with you. Nan Chiyou is now her treasure. No one is allowed to disturb her. Even if you haven’t said those things to Nan Chiyou, I’m afraid she would have continued to find your mistakes.”
Nan Luo was slightly happy, but her face remained expressionless.
“Father, it’s alright. I’m fine here. I’m afraid that Venerable Qiu Hui will blame you…”
Hui Yan’s old face sank; he snorted coldly. “Nine Gate will not listen to her decision alone. Do you think the others have no right to speak out? Yes, it was your fault in the first place. But I have guaranteed that you will not go near Nan Chiyou. You can only walk around here. If she still disagrees, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Nan Luo lowered her gaze, hiding the coldness in them.
Even if her father still would not let her out, at least, she had the right to leave the room.
It was not easy to fight for this right.
So…
She narrowed her eyes, and a cold light flashed in them.
As long as she was allowed to leave the room, she would eventually find a chance to approach Nan Chiyou.
