The mysterious milk group, hands on hips, is being fought over by five dads who are going crazy over

Ye Linqian could easily see through what the little guy was thinking, and he was immediately at a loss for words.

Sure enough, no matter how capable his Ah Ning is on ordinary days, she is still a child, and incredibly cute.

"Alright, alright, since it's a secret, Father won't ask. Father will take you back."

It was completely dark when the two quickened their pace toward the Prime Minister's residence, only to run into Yingxia on the way.

Seeing Yingxia's anxious expression, Aning immediately became tense. "Sister Yingxia! Has something happened to Mother?"

Yingxia was a little out of breath from running, and after catching her breath, she leaned against the wall and said:

"No, no!"

"Miss, Madam has woken up and is worried about your safety outside alone, so she sent me out to look for you."

As she spoke, she curtsied to Ye Linqian again, "Lord Ye."

Ye Linqian shook his fan. "I was just about to take Aning home, let's go together."

"Yes."

Aning, still holding Ye Linqian's hand, looked up and asked Yingxia, "Sister Yingxia, is Mother feeling better?"

"Miss, Madam is feeling better. She says her chest doesn't feel as tight as it did during the day, but she still feels weak and can't get out of bed yet."

Ah Ning nodded: "Then let's hurry, I'm going to see Mother!"

The three of them, two adults and one child, headed towards the Prime Minister's residence by moonlight, but an unexpected incident occurred when they turned the corner out of the alley!

A yellow dog suddenly darted past the three of them, lunged forward, and bit a woman's leg!

"Help! Help!"

The woman cried out in pain, her eyes filled with tears as she begged for help!

Ah Ning immediately stepped forward, one hand on her hip and the other pointing at the dog, her expression both cute and fierce: "Bad dog! Let go of pretty auntie!"

The dog, however, disobeyed and viciously bit the woman's leg.

Seeing this, Ye Linqian knew it wasn't a spirit, but just an ordinary dog. He searched the dog's body and found only a piece of gold. So he clicked his tongue twice to tease the dog, and then threw the gold piece away forcefully!

Dogs are just livestock; it's instinctive for them to run after whatever's thrown out. Almost simultaneously, it loosened its grip on the woman's leg, took off running on all fours, snatched the gold in its mouth, and disappeared from sight.

"Madam Liu!" Yingxia rushed forward to support the woman on the ground. "How are you? I'll take you to the clinic right away!"

Ah Ning blinked, somewhat curiously, "Does Sister Yingxia know the pretty auntie?"

Yingxia said with a worried look, "Miss, Madam Liu was once a close friend of Madam. If Madam were here today, she would not have abandoned Madam Liu."

Ah Ning nodded: "Oh."

She then asked, "What is a close confidante? Is it a friend who knows Mother's secrets?"

Ye Linqian laughed heartily twice, patted A Ning's head, and said, "Little A Ning is so smart."

Hey! You guessed right!

Ah Ning's eyes sparkled as she walked up to the pretty auntie, squatted down, and placed her soft, white hand on the auntie's injured leg, saying in a sweet, gentle voice:

"Pretty auntie, don't cry, don't cry. With Aning here, the pain will stop soon!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a complex golden rune appeared in Ah Ning's small palm. The warm golden light slowly enveloped the horrifying bite wound on the woman's calf. In just a short while, the wound was completely healed, with only some bloodstains remaining to prove that the wound had indeed existed...

Yingxia witnessed the whole scene and was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out of their sockets!

She always thought her little master was amazing... but she never imagined he was this amazing!!!

Madam Liu was also astonished. She had been lying on the ground in pain and unable to speak, but the young girl in front of her had only touched her leg and healed the injury that might have taken two or three months to heal!

She turned to look at Yingxia in surprise: "Yingxia, this...this is...?"

Yingxia suppressed her excitement and replied with pride, "Madam Liu, this is Miss Aning, who just returned to the manor a few days ago."

Upon hearing this, Madam Liu looked surprised and quickly helped Yingxia up from the ground. She pulled Aning over and looked her up and down. "You, you're Aning? Wanwan's child? She's so big already?"

Ah Ning nodded obediently: "Hello, pretty auntie, I'm Ah Ning!"

Seeing that this child not only possessed extraordinary skills but also had such a sweet tongue, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, "The little guy is so exquisitely beautiful, he looks just like his mother when she was little, unbelievably pretty."

Ah Ning blushed, blinked hard, and felt a little embarrassed by the compliment.

She tilted her head and asked, "It's not safe outside after dark, why is the pretty auntie out alone?"

Mentioning this, Madam Liu's face fell again. Even though she was still curious about how A-Ning had healed her leg, she didn't have time to ask anymore. She hurriedly said, "I forgot I had important business to attend to! Thank you so much for your help today, little A-Ning. Auntie will be going now. Please give my regards to your mother."

After saying that, she nodded to Ye Linqian from across the two people, thanking him for chasing away the vicious dog, and then hurriedly left.

Ah Ning scratched her head. "This aunt is really strange."

Yingxia: "Miss, what's strange about Madam Liu?"

Ah Ning thought for a moment, feeling that something was off when she was healing Ye Linqian earlier, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She shook her head and grabbed Ye Linqian's hand, "Father, let's go!"

Aning is eager to go back and see her mother!

One thing after another, it's taking up too much time!

As they parted ways at the entrance of the Prime Minister's residence, A-Ning slipped two talismans into Ye Linqian's hand. "Father, take these. Your birth chart attracts spirits and ghosts; it's too unsafe for you to walk alone at night!"

Ye Linqian was both amused and exasperated.

The Ye family was incredibly wealthy. Knowing that his birth chart attracted negative energy, he naturally spent a fortune to acquire a life-saving method, ensuring he wouldn't die easily. Yet, he still accepted A-Ning's talisman and affectionately ruffled her hair.

"Little Aning is so clever! Now Daddy won't be scared on the way home."

"Hurry up and go inside, or your mother will get impatient."

Ah Ning nodded emphatically: "Goodbye, Father!"

After saying that, she added, "In a couple of days, Aning will accompany Father to tour the capital. Father, don't forget to take Aning to eat Su-zao pork!"

Ye Linqian smiled and waved his hand, "Alright, Father has remembered. Go in quickly."

As soon as she entered Biyou Courtyard, Aning couldn't wait to run into her mother's room.

Seeing her mother lying on the bed, her face still pale, Ah Ning's heart clenched again, and she quickly went forward to hold her mother's hand.

"Mother, how are you? Is anything bothering you?"

Seeing her child return safely, Qiao Wan finally felt relieved. She forced a pale smile and gently shook her head, "Mother is fine, just a little weak. She'll be fine after a rest."

Upon hearing this, A-Ning turned around and saw that the talisman water on the table had been drunk up. She then looked at Yingxia and said, "Sister Yingxia, quickly close the door. A-Ning has something to ask Mother!"

Yingxia obediently went out, closed the door, and stood guard outside.

Seeing this, Aning moved a chair over and sat down. She closed her eyes and then opened them again. She saw that the dark aura on her mother's forehead was just as thick as when she left home, with no change. She couldn't help but frown.

"Mother, I don't know how to break the curse on you."

Hearing this, Qiao Wan raised her hand with difficulty to smooth her furrowed brows. "It's okay, Mother won't blame Aning. Aning has already done a great job."

Hearing her mother say this, Ah Ning felt even more guilty for not learning how to break the curse properly from her master.

She grasped her mother's cold hand, her little face instantly turning serious as she earnestly asked:

"Mother, there is another way to break the curse: find the person who cast the curse and have them break it themselves."

"But when Aning chased after them, she discovered that the person who cursed her mother lived in the Yong'an Prince's Mansion. Father Ye said that her mother's family members lived in the Yong'an Prince's Mansion."

A-Ning pursed her lips, a little worried that her mother would be sad, but she still continued to ask, "Mother, who in the Yong'an Prince's Mansion would want to harm you?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Wan froze on the spot, her mind going blank, almost unable to think...
