Chapter 84: Eighty-four, Coming to the Door Chapter 84: Eighty-four, Coming to the Door Upon returning to the courtyard house, Song Yan Ning had a chat with Yang Lisheng and Li Meixiang before retiring to her room.

Once she had set up the array inside her room, Song Yan Ning took out the brush again and continued to refine it. Yesterday, she had only refined two layers of the Array Formation Restriction, and now she was about to leave for the Miao Border; she had no idea when she would have the time to refine the brush next.

Time slipped by unnoticed.

Song Yan Ning opened her eyes and saw it was already light outside. She put away her brush and got up to wash. Qin Yushen had said he would come to pick her up at nine, and now it was already half-past seven. After breakfast, there would be just enough time to have another chat with her maternal grandparents.

Yang Lisheng was watering the flowers in the courtyard when he heard someone knocking at the door. He went to open it.

Expecting Qin Yushen, Yang Lisheng was surprised to find Yang Xin’er and Zhang Xiaoling instead. He paused for a moment, “In-laws, Xin’er, what brings you here this early?” What could they possibly want by coming at such an early hour?

“Father, call Song Yan Ning out, I need to speak with her,” Yang Xin’er said with an extremely unpleasant look on her face. After arguing with Yufeng last night, she hadn’t been able to sleep at all. She had barely dozed off in the morning, only to be roused not long after by her mother-in-law, whose expression didn’t look good either, likely because she also had a restless night.

“Xiao Ning hasn’t gotten up yet; maybe you’d like to sit and wait for a while,” Yang Lisheng suggested. Seeing the furious demeanor of Xin’er, he suspected that her business with Xiao Ning was not going to lead to anything good.

“What time is it and she’s still not up? Which room is hers? I’ll go wake her,” Yang Xin’er said, moving towards the house.

Stepping forward, Yang Lisheng blocked her way, “Whatever it is, you can tell me; don’t frighten the child.” He couldn’t understand this kind of mothering. Xiao Ning was planning to leave today, and he wished for her to sleep a bit longer and rest up. Although they had consented to Xiao Ning’s trip to the Miao Border, he and his wife couldn’t help but worry; after all, Xiao Ning was so young—what if something dangerous happened? However, they were also familiar with the child’s stubbornness; once she set her mind on something, no amount of talking would convince her otherwise.

“Father, get out of the way,” Yang Xin’er said, reaching out to push Yang Lisheng aside.
