The afternoon sun was the brightest.

His ex-fiancée was wearing a lake blue dress embroidered with white magnolia. She had a delicate and soft appearance, clear and bright eyes, and graceful beauty between her brows.

She was delicate and beautiful.

She was standing next to a handsome man who exuded fierce and evil aura. Under the sunshine of spring, the two of them looked like a perfect couple.

Lord Xie did not expect that as soon as he returned to his home, he would see his ex-fiancée and his adoptive father standing side by side but quite harmoniously facing each other at the gate.

A flash of shock and suspicion flashed through Lord Xie's eyes.

The words of his former fiancée vowing to marry the Duke appeared in his mind, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.

After a while, he slowly rode forward, dismounted not far from the gate, lightly lifted his brocade robe, strode forward, and saluted respectfully to Duke Ding.

"Greetings to Father."

When Jiang Ningbao heard Lord Xie respectfully calling Duke Xie Heng his father, her eyes couldn't help but linger on the two of them.

One was powerful, handsome and charming, while the other had a cool temperament, handsome and noble.

Equally outstanding, equally extraordinary, and equally young.

Jiang Ningbao felt an inexplicable joy in her heart for some reason.

The age difference between the two was nine years. People in ancient times matured early, and they only became fathers when they were more than ten years old.

Now that she saw the father and the adopted son, she really wanted to ask Madame Xie why she chose Xie Jingyi to adopt as her grandson.

Isn’t it better to adopt a two or three year old?

But when she thought about the fact that the book revealed that Duke Ding passed away when he was thirty, and that the male protagonist inherited the title of Duke of Ding.

Jiang Ningbao suspected that there was an unknown secret in it.

The guards behind Lord Xie obviously did not expect to see the Duke, who rarely returned home, at the gate of the Mansion.

They all dismounted and bowed to the Duke with respect, and shouted in unison:

"Greetings to the Duke!"

A guard who had followed Lord Xie, and saw Jiang Ningbao's appearance at the gate of the registrar office was filled with turmoil in his heart.

The woman next to the Duke turned out to be Fourth Miss Jiang.

Yan Shuqing, who was in the carriage, heard her fiancé outside greeting "Father" and the guards greeting "Duke Ding" in unison, and felt happy.

Maybe Duke Ding came back from the western suburbs camp specifically for the purpose of his son's engagement.

It seems that Duke Ding really attaches great importance to Lord Xie.

Thinking of this, Yan Shuqing happily opened the curtains and looked into the distance.

Unexpectedly, what came into view was Jiang Ningbao, who was smiling like a flower and dazzling.

A look of astonishment flashed across Yan Shuqing's beautiful eyes, and the joy on her face suddenly faded, and she sank instantly.

There was a hint of hostility and coldness in Jiang Ningbao's eyes.

Fourth Miss Jiang came to Duke Ding's Mansion unexpectedly.
