After rebirth, my elder sister wants to steal my husband!

Chapter 244 The secret from years ago

The night was as dark as ink, and the moonlight shone through the carved window lattices into the inner rooms of the marquis' mansion.

The room was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, which blended with Lu Zhiran's unique and elegant fragrance, creating a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.

Fu Yuzhang sat on a cushion, holding an ebony comb in his hand, combing Lu Zhiran's long hair with a focused look.

Lu Zhiran's face looked particularly gentle in the moonlight, her eyes were as bright as autumn water, and there was a hint of determination and intelligence between her brows.

Her long hair was as silky as satin, sliding across Fu Yuzhang's fingers, causing a slight itch.

An indescribable tenderness surged in Fu Yuzhang's heart.

The misunderstanding between them was finally resolved, and he felt extremely cherished for the intimacy at this moment.

His fingers shuttled through Lu Zhiran's hair, and every strand of hair seemed to tell the story between them.

"Zhiran, thank you for being so magnanimous and not holding it against me." Fu Yuzhang's voice was low and gentle, as if carrying a hint of remorse.

Lu Zhiran smiled lightly, with a hint of mischief in his eyes, "When did the young marquis become so sentimental?"

"I just did my part."

Fu Yuzhang stopped what he was doing, stared into Lu Zhiran's eyes, and said affectionately: "Lu Zhiran, I was too stupid before and didn't understand your painstaking efforts."

"From now on, I will cherish you even more and never let you suffer any injustice again."

How come this guy suddenly got it?

These are all sweet words.

Although he was complaining, Lu Zhiran couldn't help but feel happy about these words in his heart.

She gently leaned on Fu Yuzhang's shoulder, and her voice became softer, "Yuzhang, as long as we can understand and support each other, it is better than anything else."

The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on this perfect couple, as if it had covered them with a layer of silver veil.

Fu Yuzhang continued to comb Lu Zhiran's long hair. Their shadows were stretched very long on the wall, as if they wanted to keep this deep affection in this world forever.

The atmosphere in the room became warmer and the two people's hearts became closer.

Fu Yuzhang's fingers gently passed through Lu Zhiran's hair, feeling her gentleness and tranquility. He seemed to see their future days, full of happiness and harmony.

Just then, a breeze blew by, and the bamboo leaves outside the window swayed gently, making a rustling sound.

Fu Yuzhang's heart moved. He put down the comb in his hand, gently held Lu Zhiran's cheek, and gently kissed her forehead.

The kiss was full of love and commitment.

Lu Zhiran felt Fu Yuzhang's kiss, and his heart was filled with sweetness and happiness.

As the night deepened, the mansion became quiet.

Fu Yuzhang and Lu Zhiran sat facing each other, with a gentle gleam in each other's eyes.

Inside the room, the flickering candlelight stretched the two people's shadows long, as if it was also rejoicing over their reconciliation.

Lu Zhiran leaned lightly on Fu Yuzhang's chest, listening to his steady and strong heartbeat, feeling extremely peaceful and satisfied in his heart.

She whispered, "Yu Zhang, do you know what I have been longing for most in my heart over the years?"

Fu Yuzhang held her hand tightly and looked at her affectionately: "I know that what you want most is for me to be with you well."

So narcissistic!

Lu Zhiran rolled his eyes in disgust.

But on the surface, Lu Zhiran still nodded slightly to show his respect, and at the same time, a trace of tears flashed in his eyes: "Yes, what I long for is to spend every day and night with you hand in hand, and protect our home together."

"When I was a child, my parents didn't like me... They placed me in the most remote room. I didn't have anything that my elder sister had..."

"Even when I was a kid, I just wanted to have a coal burner in the winter that didn't smoke so much..."

"Hey……"

Lu Zhiran was playing the victim.

Fu Yuzhang's heart moved. He gently held Lu Zhiran's cheek and wiped away the tears from her eyes: "Lu Zhiran, I promise you that from now on, no matter the wind and rain, I will walk side by side with you."

"I will never let you live like that again."

Their eyes met, as if they could see through each other's souls.

At this moment, they seemed to have returned to the moment when they first met, and that pure emotion surged in their hearts again.

Fu Yuzhang stood up and held Lu Zhiran in his arms. They hugged each other tightly, as if they wanted to put all their emotions into this hug. The moonlight shone through the window on them, covering them with a layer of silver light.

At this moment, there was a sound of light footsteps outside the door.

Fu Yuzhang and Lu Zhiran had just resolved their misunderstandings, and the two reconciled and were immersed in deep sweetness.

However, this peaceful night was broken by a rapid knock on the door.

"Young Marquis, Aunt Zhang asks you to come over, saying that she has something important to tell you." Outside the door, Zhang Xiangxiu's maid Cui'er reported softly.

Fu Yuzhang frowned slightly. He didn't have much good impression of Zhang Xiangxiu at this moment.

Ever since he married Lu Zhiran, Zhang Xiangxiu has been dissatisfied and has been stirring up trouble in the mansion from time to time.

Fu Yuzhang didn't want to pay attention to it, but Cui'er's next words made him feel something.

"My aunt said that if the Marquis didn't go, she would take the secret from ten years ago and disappear with her, and she would never bother the Marquis again."

There was a hint of determination in Cui'er's voice.

A secret from ten years ago? Fu Yuzhang was shocked.

Fu Yuzhang took a deep breath and calmed the waves in his heart.

He looked at Lu Zhiran and said, "I have to go over there."

Lu Zhiran was very sensible and stopped trying to stop them. After all, everyone has their own little secrets.

This is perfectly normal.

Afraid that Lu Zhiran might misunderstand, Fu Yuzhang emphasized this to Lu Zhiran again and again before leaving.

"Wait for me, I will definitely come back tonight."

Lu Zhiran nodded helplessly.

"Ok, I will wait for you."

Fu Yuzhang stood up, walked out the door, and said to Cui'er, "Let's go!"

In the dark of night, Fu Yuzhang followed Cui'er to Zhang Xiangxiu's residence.

This is a quiet courtyard with rockery, flowing water, pavilions and towers, exuding an elegant atmosphere everywhere.

Every detail reveals Fu Yuzhang's love for Zhang Xiangxiu.

However, Fu Yuzhang was in no mood to appreciate these. In his heart, there was only the secret from ten years ago.

When I walked into the room, I saw Zhang Xiangxiu sitting on the couch, holding a cup of tea in her hand with a calm expression.

She was wearing a lavender dress, her long hair draped over her shoulders, and she had a cool temperament.

Seeing Fu Yuzhang coming in, Zhang Xiangxiu smiled and motioned him to sit down. Cui'er tactfully retreated outside the door.

"It's a rare visitor, young marquis, coming here so late at night." There was a hint of ridicule in Zhang Xiangxiu's voice.

Fu Yuzhang ignored her teasing and asked directly, "What is the secret from ten years ago that you mentioned?"
