Liu Yingnan had just returned home when the nanny from the palace called on them.
In front of Master Liu and Madam of the Liu Family, the nanny recounted how Liu Yingnan had schemed and maneuvered to compete for the position of the Princess's study companion.
Liu Yingnan stood beside them with an ashen face, saying nothing, her head bowed.
Her father, Inspector Master Liu, was a man who valued his reputation.
After the nanny finished speaking, he immediately felt disgraced and slapped Liu Yingnan across the face.
Madam hurried to intervene, "My Lord!"
Liu Yingnan fell to the ground from the blow, covering her face and crying silently.
Master Liu pointed at her and cursed, "Unfilial daughter, you've disgraced me completely! How am I supposed to face the Emperor at court tomorrow?"
Liu Yingnan sobbed, "I know I was wrong, Father."
The nanny was a bit surprised, not expecting Master Liu to resort to violence in front of outsiders.
