Chapter 2031: Chapter 2031: Too Presumptuous!

"What are we going to do?"

A maid grew anxious upon hearing this.

"If the lady finds out we didn’t keep an eye on Miss and let her run away, how are we going to explain ourselves?"

"Ha."

The beaten maid snorted with laughter.

If that overbearing Ding Rong wanted to run, then let her run.

Watching Commander Lin’s daughter, she wasn’t easy to deal with either. If Ding Rong really ran off to the wilderness to confront Lin Nian, did she think she’d have good days ahead?

Commander Lin had never paid much attention to Ding Rong anyway.

Even out of respect for the City Lord and his wife, he had never shown Ding Rong a kind face.

Under such circumstances, did Ding Rong still want to compete with Commander Lin’s daughter?

Besides, she is the daughter of Commander Lin, while Ding Rong wished to marry Commander Lin and become his wife. How could that be possible?

"Let’s just keep a close watch on Miss."

She spoke casually to her two companions.

Of course, if Ding Rong really wanted to leave this place, she surely had her own ways. They, as maids, could only be responsible to a certain extent, and that was enough.

The lady was always magnanimous, so how could she punish them excessively over a niece who had been spoiled too much?

"Right, right, we have to keep a close watch, can’t let Miss run away."

...

In the room, Ding Rong bit her lower lip, her eyes bloodshot as she stared at the door.

"What kind of aunt is she, claiming to care for me? She promised my parents that she’d treat me well. Where’s the good treatment? She knows I like Lin Nian yet won’t let me marry her. Isn’t this just a trivial matter for her?"

Indeed, her aunt was the City Lord’s wife; was granting a marriage that difficult?

Even if Lin Nian was the savior of the City Lord and his wife, Lin Nian was still a subject, and her uncle was the City Lord, the master.

If only her aunt could say a few good words for her in front of her uncle, things could be settled.

But her aunt refused to do so, instead wanting to send her to suffer in Dragon Heart Valley!

"No, we need to leave quickly, can’t let my aunt send me to Dragon Heart Valley!"

She thought it over; she needed to leave this place as soon as possible. If her aunt came to her senses, she’d surely send more people to watch her.

By that time, even if she wanted to leave, she wouldn’t be able to.

Taking a deep breath, she glanced at the bundle beside her, gritted her teeth, opened the window, and jumped out.

...

"Ran away?"

When the wife of the City Lord received the news, it was already the next day.

"Yes, milady, she ran away last night. By the time we discovered it, she had already left Sky City, and her whereabouts are unknown," Nanny Jin informed the City Lord’s wife.

’Bang’ went a sound.

The City Lord’s wife slammed her palm onto the desktop, seething with anger.

"This Ding Rong is simply too presumptuous!"

She had only sent Ding Rong to Dragon Heart Valley for some experience, yet she had dared to run away?

"Immediately, send people to pursue in the direction of the wilderness. You must bring her back. After you catch her, there’s no need to return to the City Lord’s Mansion; send her directly to Dragon Heart Valley!" she instructed Nanny Jin.

Ding Rong had run away now, and other than chasing Lin Nian, there was no other possibility.

Therefore, sending people in the direction of the wilderness to pursue would certainly pose no issues. And since Ding Rong didn’t have a flying demon, catching up with Lin Nian and the rest was impossible.

Being slow, if she dispatched people to pursue now, they could still catch up.
