"What do you understand?"
Lady Leng gave her a glare, wishing she could swallow her alive.
"As his birth mother, he should come to pay his respects. Lacking all proper etiquette, does he not hold me in his eyes at all? When I tell you to summon him, just summon him, what is all this fuss about?"
She couldn't do anything to Leng Nichen now, but dampening his spirits was still possible.
"Hurry up and go!"
Seeing the maid hesitate, she glared and urged her once more.
"Yes, yes, I'll go right away."
What could the maid do? Knowing well that he couldn't be summoned, she still had to try, and so she turned and left.
...
This day within the Eternal Night Sect was a bustling one, only quieting down as midnight approached.
Lady Leng, furious that the maid had failed to bring Leng Nichen, nearly choked with rage in her own courtyard, cursing so loudly that many disciples within the sect became aware of it.
Leng Yiyu was also cursing Leng Nichen, wishing death upon him.
