Chapter 1878: His Lesson Chapter 1878: His Lesson Editor: Henyee Translations Shao Yunduan’s expression tightened as Qiao Xuan spoke.

“Really?

Should I compliment you?” he asked, his tone laced with a hint of sarcasm.

“No, no!” Qiao Xuan quickly shook her head, a flattering smile on her lips.

“There’s no need for that.

I know I was wrong.

I won’t ever sneak out of the city again.

This time, I just wanted to see what the Fan Family will do, and I’ll be cautious!” “Cautious?” Shao Yunduan’s anger flared.

“You know what kind of family the Fan Family is.

You know how arrogant and domineering Fan Ruyin and Old Lady Fan can be.

How could you risk it?

Even if you’re cautious, you’re stepping onto their territory.

What good will that do?” If something were to happen, even if she sensed danger, could she handle it?

Help from afar wouldn’t reach in time.

The news would spread, and he wouldn’t be able to rush to her aid.

Just the thought made him shudder, a cold sweat breaking out… It would drive him insane!

“Yes, you’re here too…” Qiao Xuan had never seen Shao Yunduan lose his temper like this, realizing she shouldn’t have provoked him, but she couldn’t help herself.

She tugged at Shao Yunduan’s sleeve, speaking softly, “I’m confident that with Ah-Ye’s capabilities, the Fan Family won’t dare touch me unless they want trouble with you, the Prefect Lord.

At most, they’ll try to address the situation openly, to acknowledge the elephant in the room.” Ah-Ye could whisk her away to safety in minutes.

Qiao Xuan attempted to explain and console Shao Yunduan, and his expression softened slightly.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Qiao Xuan recognized the boundaries of her influence.

She couldn’t afford to joke about herself, not when her life experience was still unfolding.

How could she have been so rash and thoughtless?

But there was one truth she couldn’t reveal: her extraordinary ability to control everything within the courtyard.

Regardless of Fan Ruyin and the others’ schemes, she was always aware.

She wouldn’t allow anyone to plot against them!

If she backed down, wouldn’t it embolden Fan Ruyin’s arrogance?

It would imply that she, as the Prefect’s wife, feared the Fan Family, which would severely disadvantage Shao Yunduan in his struggle against them.

Awareness dawned on Qiao Xuan.

The stakes were high, and many keen observers were watching the power struggle between the Prefect and the Fan Family.

The outcome would shape their stance and tactics toward the Prefect’s office.

Qiao Xuan refused to be a liability.

The Fan Family had brazenly invited confrontation, and she intended to deliver a resounding blow.

Moreover, she was determined to drive them to the brink of madness!

Shao Yunduan sighed, gently grasping her hands.

“I understand you’re trying to support me, my dear, but there’s no need.

I’m genuinely worried—” “I’m scared too!” Qiao Xuan interjected with a smile.

“I won’t act independently anymore!” Shao Yunduan’s expression softened.

“That’s what I want to hear.” “Absolutely,” Qiao Xuan affirmed.

“I’ll always consult with you.” Shao Yunduan paused, contemplating.

He sensed there was still a lesson she needed to learn.
