Lin Enās words caused the Duke of Westminster and his knights to look tensely at Sheng Ning, their eyes filled with various complex emotions.
Warning, pleading, superiority, and threat.
Xu Qigangās gaze swept across like a knife, and many eyes awkwardly looked away.
The secret contest ended like this, the Duke gave his subordinates a warning glance, and apart from Amber and Daives, everyone else bowed their heads respectfully and exited.
Sheng Ning pressed her lips together, her heart was also struggling, and in an instant of contemplation, she had understood everything.
Lin En being the son of the Duke of Westminster was completely beyond her imagination; had anyone told her this before tonight, she would have surely laughed at their madness.
But now, the truth was laid bare before her.
A noble would absolutely never allow their son to be left out in the cold, even in an ordinary family, they couldnāt, right!
She didnāt know if there was any family affection left within the Westminster Family, but she could feel the Dukeās sincerity.
"Aunt doesnāt want to part with you."
Sheng Ningās words made the Dukeās face suddenly change; based on his judgment, the woman before him should be smart, and also likely know where she should draw the line.
Lin En was his son, no one could take him away.
This child must return to England, back to the Westminster Family. If anyone dared try to stop him, they shouldnāt blame him for being impolite.
"Aunt." Lin En suddenly threw himself into Sheng Ningās embrace, his voice choked as if about to cry.
When he couldnāt even walk, he was taken to Chinatown by his grandmother, and after she died, he stayed with Lin Lisha in such a place. Despite his young age, his mind was much more mature than other children.
Especially when it came to judging people, one glance and he would know that those people were not to be messed with.
The man before him was not to be messed with either; he didnāt want to leave Aunt, didnāt want to leave little sister, didnāt want to leave little brother. He even wanted to go back to the mainland and enter school with them!
But now, all of that was gone.
He knew he had to go with his father.
"I will secretly come to see you." The little one whispered into Sheng Ningās shoulder, blinking sneakily when people werenāt watching. "Iāll move all their familyās wealth away, and then I can marry little sister."
The sadness in Sheng Ningās heart was instantly turned into amusement by his sudden words. She couldnāt help but hold him in her arms and quickly refused, "My little ancestor, you mustnāt scare me like that, such things canāt be done."
"Why?"
"Thatās your family."
"Precisely! Itās my familyās things, I can do whatever I want with them." Lin En didnāt think there was anything wrong with his idea.
"This is your father, do you like him?"
Lin Enās eyes sparkled as he nodded, "I like him." He then shyly smiled, embarrassedly saying, "I always believed in my dreams that I should have such an outstanding father."
Sheng Ning gave the Duke another look and sincerely nodded. "Indeed, very outstanding, the way he looks at you feels warm, I believe he will take good care of you in the future."
Only now did she truly feel at ease, and at the same time happy for Lin En. The little one had such a turbulent destiny since childhood, with both grandmother and mother dead, Lin Lisha was unreliable and never gave him a smile.
