Chapter 241 Return to the Lu Family
Chapter 241 Return to the Lu Family
The night outside was as dark as ink, with stars dotted everywhere. Lu Zhiran sat alone at the banquet, holding an exquisite jade cup in her hand. The wine in the cup reflected her face, making the displeasure in her eyes more apparent.
Fu Yuzhang's delay in arrival made her feel inexplicably irritated.
What on earth have you been doing!
How come it took so long?
If you can't come, just call a servant over to inform them!
I realized that my thoughts were a little unstable.
Lu Zhiran sighed softly, put down the jade cup in her hand, and asked Zixiang to let her stay here. She stood up, walked out of the lively banquet, and went towards the garden outside.
I plan to think alone and be quiet.
In the garden, the fragrance of flowers is intoxicating, the moonlight is like water, and there is peace and tranquility.
Lu Zhiran strolled in it, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
Suddenly, Lu Zhiran laughed at himself. As expected, he couldn't help but care.
After spending a long time with Fu Yuzhang, I actually started to become shy and act like a little girl.
That's it!
You should focus more on making money and study less about what men think.
The moonlight was just right over the lotus pond at night. Lu Zhiran had just seen the bright moonlight beside the waterside pavilion, so he stood there thinking about something.
Now that she had figured things out, she lowered her head to look at the moonlight for a while. Suddenly, a panicked and anxious voice came from behind her, "Lu Zhiran!"
Without even turning his head, Lu Zhiran fell into someone's arms.
The man held her waist and took several steps back. Lu Zhiran couldn't stand steadily and fell into the man's arms.
The moonlight was bright, and Su Ran's face became clear in it.
Lu Zhiran stood firm and pushed her, "What are you doing?"
That push did not move Su Ran away. Su Ran hugged her tightly. Because Su Ran's chest was behind her, Lu Zhiran naturally felt the beating in her chest.
"Zhiran, don't do anything stupid!" Su Ran saw Lu Zhiran standing beside the lotus pond, staring at the lake stupidly. Thinking of Fu Yuzhang being kept in the palace by his father, and just now at the banquet, Lu Zhiran didn't even smile and stayed in his seat without moving.
Seeing Lu Zhiran lowering her head, he was afraid that she might have suicidal thoughts, and without paying attention to his father's warning, he hugged her regardless.
Lu Zhiran was stunned when he heard what Su Ran said, and then pointed at himself, "Why would I do such a stupid thing?"
Su Ran stared at her.
She only knew that Lu Zhiran was in a bad mood, and her mood was also bad.
"Let me go!" Lu Zhiran was unable to breathe due to her hug, so he pushed Su Ran's chest with his elbow.
Only then did Su Ran think of letting go.
Lu Zhiran knew that Su Ran had feelings for him, so he just wanted to stay away from her to avoid being implicated again, so he turned around and walked forward.
Su Ran chased after him and asked, "Lu Zhiran, it's so late, where are you going?"
"What does it have to do with you where I go?" Lu Zhiran said with impatience in his tone.
"me--"
After hearing Su Ran fail to utter a complete sentence for a long time, Lu Zhiran turned around, the moonlight shining on her face. She was dressed up today, looking different than usual.
Su Ran was speechless to begin with, and when he saw Lu Zhiran, he couldn't utter a single word.
"Don't follow me." Lu Zhiran said and continued walking forward.
After all, they had already fallen out before.
There is no need to pretend anymore.
Su Ran, a princess, really stood still because of Lu Zhiran's words.
Lu Zhiran was about to walk out of the garden, he looked back, and saw Su Ran still standing on the waterside pavilion, he couldn't help laughing.
Su Ran had been looking at her, and when he saw her suddenly turn around and smile, he was completely scared.
"It's getting late, let's go back and rest." After Lu Zhiran said this, he disappeared over the rockery in the garden.
Su Ran stood there for a long time, and suddenly remembered the time when she hugged Lu Zhiran's waist just now.
She was anxious just now, but now when she thought back, she only felt that Lu Zhiran had a slender waist. When she crossed her arms, Lu Zhiran was completely embedded in her arms...
The moon is as cold as water.
Lu Zhiran went back to the banquet, but still didn't see Fu Yuzhang, so he didn't wait and took Zixiang home. He had a good sleep and when he woke up the next day, his complexion looked much better.
The maids who served her were very skillful and they changed her clothes, combed her hair, and helped her wash up. It only took them half an hour.
Lu Zhiran was planning to go back to the Lu family today. After all, she hadn't been back since she got married.
Although she was not on good terms with the Lu family, in the eyes of outsiders, the Lu family was still her mother's family.
We still have to save face.
Xiaoying got up very early today and was pruning branches in the yard with two maids. Lu Zhiran walked out of the house neatly dressed, and Xiaoying's feeling of loss rose up again.
I went to Chengguan with Lu Zhiran before, and I thought there would be some changes after I came back.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhiran still values Zixiang the most.
Take her with you on everything.
Seeing Lu Zhiran walking outside, Xiaoying suddenly called out, "Madam!"
Lu Zhiran turned around and saw Xiaoying pruning branches.
Xiaoying walked in front of Lu Zhiran.
"Madam, when you go back today, can you take me with you?" Xiaoying asked expectantly.
Lu Zhiran hesitated: "Someone needs to look after the family. Xiaoying, I brought you here from my mother's home. I trust you the most, so..."
Xiaoying felt a little lost.
"Ma'am, it was Xiaoying who was abrupt."
Lu Zhiran patted Xiaoying's shoulder comfortingly, unable to bear her feeling lost, and consoled her.
"I'll take you with me next time I go back."
Xiaoying immediately smiled.
"Yes, ma'am."
Lu Zhiran lowered his head, adjusted his cuffs, and walked towards the door.
A sedan chair had been prepared outside. Lu Zhiran got on it, and Zixiang accompanied her.
When Lu Zhiran returned to the Lu family, her mother was a little cold towards her arrival.
But it is estimated that Lu Zhiran is now the wife of the Marquis.
Didn't say much.
"Mother, my daughter is back!"
Lu Zhiran asked the servants to bring in the gifts. After all, proper etiquette should be observed.
When Mother Lu saw Lu Zhiran's action, she only raised her eyes slightly, swept her gaze over her, and then quickly lowered them.
She did not stand up to greet him, but just said lightly: "You're back." There was no emotion in her voice, as if she was just stating a fact.
Yes, Mother Lu is probably still angry now.
How could he be so nice to Lu Zhiran?
Fortunately, Lu Zhiran didn't care about Lu's mother's attitude.
Find a seat and sit down naturally.
"How is mother these days?" Lu Zhiran asked skillfully.
Mother Lu sneered, "I'm fine, and I just realized that my good daughter has such great ability that she can mortgage the dowry shop I gave her to the people in the gambling house."
"If I hadn't asked my servants to check the shop, I wouldn't have known that my good daughter had such a skill."
