Although she didn't see Lord County Magistrate when she arrived, Bai Su the guard mentioned that once she was here, everything should revolve around Miss An Ning's well-being.
So, what the cook said wasn't exactly a lie.
Seeing the cook's audacious demeanor, Xinghua's previously good-natured smile gradually faded.
Looking up at the cook who didn't seem to care about her, a flicker of annoyance crossed Xinghua's mind.
"Madam represents Lord County Magistrate's interests and must be considering his welfare wholeheartedly. But, haven't you noticed during these few days here that the relationship between Sister An Ning and Uncle Erlai seems to be much more than just that of a godfather and goddaughter?"
"What do you mean by that?" The cook originally just intended to warn her not to disturb An Ning anymore.
But she didn't expect to hear such words from Xinghua.
The implication seemed to suggest a private affair between An Ning and her godfather!
A private affair…
