Transmigrated as the Stepmother of a Rebellious Heir

A single tear fell from Su Wan’s eye but was wiped away mid-descent as she clenched her teeth tightly, resolved not to drop another. It was a matter of the Marquis Mansion’s legitimate daughter’s dignity.

However, at the moment when she turned around to leave, she heard Ning Xiao sigh.

"Big Brother, what’s wrong?"

Xiao Yu asked curiously, worry lacing her words as she looked at Ning Xiao.

"I feel a bit guilty."

To his closest junior sister, Ning Xiao finally spoke the words that he had never before voiced, "I have done something wrong."

Ning Xiao discovered that Ningyuan Marquis Mansion was related to the incident from the past but had no concrete evidence, merely some speculation.

What he had not anticipated was the fierce factional strife within the court; from his findings, the rivals of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion were able to exploit a weakness in Marquis Ning Yuan and ultimately topple him from power.

Recently, having delved deeper into the investigation, Ning Xiao realized that he had wrongly accused Marquis Ning Yuan.

But the deed was done; even with all his remorse, he could not restore Marquis Ning Yuan’s family.
