 Chapter 509: Father and Daughter Reunion

The Lu Family members were even more delighted. They had never imagined that prisoners on exile would be given meat and fruits to eat.

The old lady packed the food and, realizing it was getting late, quickly put some items she had prepared earlier into a bundle, handing it all to Lu Erbo. "There are medicine and silver inside. Remember to give them to Ah Yu. She will definitely need them."

Lu Erbai received the bundle and carefully noted everyone's instructions.

Meng Yunzheng didn't say anything. Although Shu Yu didn't lack medicine or silver, he couldn't carry them with him either.

But this was the Lu Family's heartfelt gesture, and it was good for Lu Erbai to carry it. Once he met Shu Yu, he would understand the situation and bring the bundle back.

Meng Yunzheng took Lu Erbai and left. It was already dark, and the carriage moved slowly.

When they were not far from the post station, the carriage stopped.

Zhao Xi stayed outside to keep watch, while Meng Yunzheng and Lu Erbai climbed over the wall into the yard.

There weren't many people at the post station to begin with, and they were quiet and discreet, not alerting anyone.

Meng Yunzheng chose a distant and empty room and said to Lu Erbai, "Uncle Lu, wait here for a moment. Miss Lu can only come out after the others have fallen asleep. I'll go outside and keep watch. Once she comes out, I'll bring her here immediately."

Lu Erbai nodded repeatedly. "Okay, rest assured. I won't make any noise. You also be careful not to get caught."

"Mm."

Meng Yunzheng left, and Lu Erbai remained in the room, trying not to make any loud sounds.

Even though only a short time, less than the duration of a pot of tea, had passed, Lu Erbai felt like it had been an entire day. The room was stuffy, and although it was already quite cool at night, Lu Erbai was still sweating profusely.

After another quarter of an hour, Lu Erbai heard a noise from outside.

He was overjoyed and quickly stood up from the chair to greet the person coming in.

But as soon as he moved, he immediately stopped in his tracks.

No, he had to hide. What if it wasn't Ah Yu and Meng Master who entered? He would be exposed.

He looked around and quickly hid behind a cabinet, holding his breath as he watched the entrance.

The room's door opened, and two figures walked in.

Lu Erbai's line of sight was blocked, and he couldn't see clearly who they were, so he dared not come out.

After closing the door, he soon heard a voice that was so familiar it couldn't be any more familiar. "Master Meng, you said someone wants to see me. Where is the person?"

"Ah, Ah Yu." Lu Erbo emerged from behind the cabinet, stepping forward with joy, rushing towards her.

"!!!" Shu Yu turned her head and looked at her own father in disbelief, appearing right in front of her.

She rubbed her eyes, almost suspecting that she was seeing things.

No, she was on the exile road right now, not in Jiangyuan County, right?

Why would her father be here? He...he knew?

Shu Yu was rarely at a loss for words, and for a moment, she couldn't speak.

It was only after Meng Yunzheng pulled them aside and sat them down that he whispered, "We don't have much time. Talk quickly. I'll go outside and keep watch."

Meng Yunzheng left, and Shu Yu finally regained her voice. "Father, how...how did you end up here?"

Lu Erbai wiped his face. "It's a long story. Eat something first, and I'll tell you while you eat."

As he spoke, he opened the food container in front of them. "This meal was prepared by your grandmother and the others. Meng Master said you're not feeling well, so they only made one meat dish. Try it."

Arc 3 Chapter 119: Scheming Lord, Cooperate a Bit (6)

"I know! You're the Grim Reaper, the Demon King and the Harbinger of Doom! But so what? I dared to come to you today. Are you not afraid that you'll come after me in the future?"

"I thought you'd be as indifferent to your adult ceremony as the rumors suggest. It turns out you're just foolish." Weichi Che said with a cold sneering tone.

His facial expression suddenly stiffened and he shifted his footing slightly.

Luo Liyan furrowed her brows watching his subtle movements. Suspicion began to creep into her heart.

"The adult ceremony is a significant event for a young woman. How can I not care about it? I came out today to ask you why you chose to confront several families yesterday, tarnishing my reputation when you knew it was my adult ceremony."

"What are you, that you think I should show you any respect?" Weichi Che found it laughable.

She was nothing more than a girl from a noble family. There was no need to go to great lengths to discipline her. If she wanted to blame someone, she should blame her foolish father, who despite knowing it was his daughter's adult ceremony acted recklessly and crossed his own boundaries.

"You..." Luo Liyan was so infuriated that her breathing became difficult.

Did he have to be so cruel?

Could anger be considered a mortal wound?

Could she apply for a protective shield for her poor little heart?

"Yesterday's adult ceremony was a joyous occasion and as an outsider, I couldn't come over to congratulate you. However, the 200 severed heads at the vegetable market and the river of blood down the street can be considered my gift to you for your adult ceremony. After all, on such significant occasions, more red is merrier, so you don't need to thank me too much." Weichi Che replied with a smirk. He didn't spare Luo Liyan another glance and turned leaving in big strides.

"Oh, no, I'm so angry my head is spinning." Luo Liyan muttered to herself and rubbed her temple.

But when she thought about the river of blood and the 200 severed heads, she felt a chilling presence around her.

Shivering, she dared not linger and quickly left the scene.

Just as she departed a black figure swiftly moved up a tree following her discreetly.

However, Luo Liyan remained completely unaware.

After laboriously scaling the high wall she cautiously lifted a partially open window, then entered.

She wiped away her shoeprints from the frame and poured herself a glass of cold tea.

"Little Six, can you be more reliable next time? There are certain taboos surrounding Weichi Che that you shouldn't cross. You should've told me earlier, I might not survive much longer!" Luo Liyan complained.

"Oops, I forgot about it. Well don't be so angry!" Number 666 consoled her appearing rather sheepish.

It couldn't really be blamed. The male leads in the previous two worlds were easier to deal with than this one and it had become accustomed to things being less demanding. A moment of negligence was normal.

"By the way, I noticed that Weichi Che seemed uncomfortable and changed his posture. Is he injured?" Luo Liyan curiously inquired.

For a stern figure like Weichi Che, he wouldn't show discomfort unless he was in considerable pain especially in her presence.

"He has a leg injury. When he couldn't participate in the imperial examination's top three due to his physical disability which was seen as detrimental to the country and the Emperor's vision he decided to abandon the civil path and focus on the military. After three years of service on the border, he gained numerous military achievements and was named the Guardian General. He only returned to the capital two years ago, following the new emperor's ascension."

"Wait, you mean he's... crippled?" Luo Liyan widened her eyes in astonishment. "But you can't tell by the way he walks!"

Arc 3 Chapter 118: Scheming Lord, Cooperate a Bit (5)

A gentle breeze rustled the towering phoenix trees in the vast sky, creating a soft rustling sound.

Luo Liyan kept tapping her foot constantly peering outside the alley.

"Little Six are you sure Weichi Che will take this route today?"

She had sneaked out by scaling the wall this time. If she didn't return before lunch it would be a big problem.

Her grandmother would never let her out without a proper reason.

Ugh being an ancient woman was truly troublesome. To leave her home, she needed to consult her family multiple times and had to be accompanied by several maids and matrons.

"He won't go to the garrison outside the city today when he leaves court. Instead, he will head directly home. This is the route he must take to return home and it's the most sparsely populated area. Just be patient he might be running late today." Number 666 reassured her.

As he spoke a black boot suddenly appeared in Luo Liyan's view and she was startled jumping back. She looked up to see a man with a handsome chilling visage.

He gave her a cool glance his thin lips forming a straight line and he seemed ready to stride past her.

"Wait!" Luo Liyan inhaled deeply attempting to get his attention. "Are you Weichi Che?"

However, the man seemed not to hear her and didn't slow down.

"Hey, I'm talking to you!" Luo Liyan reached out and grabbed his sleeve attempting to stop him.

Before she could process what happened a sharp and cold energy struck her chest, sending her flying.

"Pfft!"

Crimson blood sprayed from Luo Liyan's mouth as she was flung back.

"Little Six, didn't you say the life-preserving pill would make me feel nothing?" She grimaced, her features twisted in pain.

"Um, I meant you wouldn't feel pain when facing a life-threatening situation. Right now, it's just a common internal injury. So you can choose to use a pain-relief pill, which costs 5 Gold Beans."

"Enough with the chatter. Use it quickly. I'm dying here." Luo Liyan responded in her thoughts. She faced the man's icy disdainful gaze with an incredulous expression.

"System Prompt: Used one pain-relief pill, deducted 5 Gold Beans. Current balance: 385 Gold Beans."

"Oh, by the way buddy, I forgot to tell you that the male lead despises women especially close contact with them. He won't allow women near him, let alone touch him like you did just now. Be careful with that." Number 666 reminded her.

"You didn't tell me this earlier? I could have died!" Luo Liyan whispered in anguish.

However, before Little Six could respond a clear and deep voice echoed through the chilly alley.

"In your current state I wonder if you can bear the title of the most beautiful woman in the capital? Luo Liyan, the eldest daughter of the Yong An Marquis Mansion!"

"You... Do you know who I am? How dare you treat me like this?" Luo Liyan clutched her wounded chest laboriously rising from the ground.

"This statement should be directed from me to you, don't you think? Don't you know who I am, Weichi Che? Yet you dared to approach me so impertinently?" Weichi Che mocked her, his lips curling slightly upward.

A chilling aura washed over her making her hair stand on end.

Despite her urge to flee she had to restrain herself. Luo Liyan put on a façade of arrogance and glared at Weichi Che.

▶▶ Master Hou Madam Went To the Sky Bridge Again To Set Up a Stall

Chapter 432: The Hou Family Always Protects Their Own, Mr. Hou Assertively Protects His Wife


"Here she comes."


Qin Ruan walked towards Hou Yunjiao with light and graceful steps, sitting down beside him.


Hou Chuan and Lin Hao stood behind her and Hou Yunjiao

As soon as Qin Ruan sat down next to Hou Yunjiao her delicate and beautiful nose twitched slightly.


She wrinkled her nose and followed the lingering scent of sandalwood on her nose, sniffing towards Hou Yunjiao.


A smile appeared in Qin Ruan's eyes, and she affectionately said, "Third Young Master, the fragrance on you today is particularly refreshing and delightful."


Hou Yunjiao pretended to be angry at the notion of a man smelling good. "Nonsense."


He raised his hand and lightly tapped Qin Ruan's forehead.


The force was gentle, more like an affectionate indulgence than a knock.


Qin Ruan took the opportunity to loop her arm around Hou Yunjiao, displaying a girlish demeanor. "There's always a faint scent of pine and sandalwood surrounding you. Today, it's truly refreshing and rejuvenating."


A gentle smile appeared on Hou Yunjiao elegant and self-confident face as he reached out and touched Qin Ruan's head, his actions affectionate and cherished.


Qin Ruan's display of affection towards him in front of others made Hou Yunjiao feel pleased.


The young girl herself didn't know what she was thinking.


Su Jingshu, sitting across from them, covered her mouth and teased, "Madam is indeed still a child."


Qin Ruan tilted her head and smiled at Su Jingshu, provocatively saying, "You say that. If I hadn't married, according to age, I should call you 'Auntie.' I'm younger, that's a fact."


There was a momentary distortion in Su Jingshu's dignified face, fleeting but noticeable.


She controlled the anger in her heart and looked at Qin Ruan with soft eyes, her smile gentle.


Su Jingshu spoke slowly, "I see that Mr. Huo isn't marrying a wife, but raising a daughter instead."


Hou Yunjiao tone grew slightly serious. "Su Jingshu!"


Her words had crossed the line.


Behind closed doors, the intimacy between husband and wife should not be discussed and brought up by others.


Su Jingshu's gentle gaze narrowed slightly as she smiled at Hou Yunjiao. "Fine, I won't say anymore. Let's get back to the point. Today, I'm here to take Lin Hao with me. Will you allow it, Third Young Master Hou?"


"Take him away?"


Qin Ruan held onto Hou Yunjiao arm, her other hand touching her slightly warm earlobe.


A distant smile appeared on Su Jingshu's face as she maintained a superior posture. "Lin Hao, my bodyguard. I don't know what got into him, but he showed disrespect towards Third Young Master."

"He is ultimately a member of my Su family, so it's only right to bring him back and give an account to the Hou family."


Labeling assassination as disrespectful, Su Jingshu really knows how to twist right and wrong.


Qin Ruan looked surprised, "Really? Lin Hao has always shown respect towards Third Young Master. Where did Miss Su hear that he is disrespectful?"


Su Jingshu furrowed her brows slightly, her lips forming a thin line as she coldly stared at Lin Hao.


Meanwhile, Lin Hao remained indifferent, keeping his eyes focused and ignoring Su Jingshu completely.


This woman was the shadow of his life, and only madness would make him consider going back to the Su family with her.


"Lin Hao!" Su Jingshu commanded in her usual tone.


Lin Hao's gaze lowered slightly as he inclined his body towards Su Jingshu's direction, saying, "Miss Su."


His tone was as distant and icy as Nangong Chang's attitude towards Su Jingshu.


And it was precisely because of this that Su Jingshu favored Lin Hao so much.


Maintaining her composure, Su Jingshu raised her snow-white neck and ordered Lin Hao, "You haven't gone home for two days already. Today, come with me."


Lin Hao stood as rigid as iron, his posture unmoving. This time, he didn't bother acknowledging Su Jingshu.


Laughter echoed in the quiet hall, as Qin Ruan rested her head on Third Young Master's arm, tilting her head to laugh at Su Jingshu.


"Miss Su, let's speak plainly. Lin Hao belongs to me from now on. Even if you scream until the heavens break, I've already made up my mind about him."


Su Jingshu, who had shed her gentle facade, grew serious.


Her dark pupils dimmed, and her gaze roamed over Qin Ruan like a venomous snake.


"Madam, I have no grudges with you. Are you sure you want to snatch away my person?"


Qin Ruan sat up straight, releasing her hands from Hou Yunjiao's arm. She stared back at Su Jingshu with a malicious gaze.


If Lin Hao hadn't told her yesterday that Su Jingshu was coming after her, she wouldn't have thought about herself in this situation.


Qin Ruan's lips curled up, her gaze filled with irony as she tore off the mask completely. "That question should be directed at Miss Su. I have no grudges with you, so why did you come looking for trouble?"


Su Jingshu helplessly shook her head, her expression resigned. "I'm sorry, I don't understand Madam's words. But now you're the one causing trouble for me."


She treated Qin Ruan like an unreasonable child, not taking her seriously at all.


Qin Ruan sneered, "If I were causing trouble for you, you wouldn't still be sitting here."


Pointing to Lin Hao standing behind her, she firmly declared to Su Jingshu, "From today onwards, Lin Hao is mine. To put it bluntly, if anything happens to Lin Hao in the future, I'll hold you, Su Jingshu, accountable."


It was a blatant threat!

Su Jing Shu was trembling with anger. As a member of a prestigious family, which young master or young lady in this capital city didn't treat her politely?


On the surface, she was Miss Su from the Su family, but in reality, she was already the one in control of the Su family. For so many years, no one had ever spoken to her like this.


Su Jing Shu's eyes darkened, and her tone carried a veiled threat: "Madam, such audacity!"


"No choice, it's the confidence bestowed by Third Young Master!" Qin Ruan pointed at the calm and elegant figure of Hou Yunjiao, who was sitting beside her.


The anger on Su Jing Shu's face subsided, and she looked expressionlessly at Hou Yunjiao and said, "Young Master, the wife you married is truly innocent!"


There was an indescribable irony and probing in her words.


Hou Yunjiao raised his chin nonchalantly, his sensual thin lips forming a reserved curve as he smiled and spoke gently, "Ruan Ruan is just childish. She's been spoiled by her family."


Sarcastic amusement played on Su Jingshu's lips as she replied, "The Qin family didn't educate her, but does that mean the Hou family would watch her ruin the hundred-year prestige of the Hou family? Everyone knows that the Hou family has always been fair and never shows favoritism in matters of right and wrong. The Hou family's reputation among the major families and aristocratic clans all these years is precisely because they do not favor any particular family."


She was using the authority and influence of the Hou family among the major families to pressurize secretly.


Hou Yunjiao's handsome face darkened, his eyes slightly narrowed.


The gentle and serene look in his eyes vanished, replaced by sharp, arrow-like gaze directed at Su Jing Shu. His thin lips pursed in displeasure.


"Su Jingshu, perhaps you didn't understand. Ruan Ruan's childishness is something I've indulged. Let alone if she wants Lin Hao today, even if she wants your entire Su family, I can offer it with both hands. Do you understand what I mean?"


Hou Yunjiao sat on the sofa, his arm around Qin Ruan's waist, asserting his dominance. "The Hou family indeed does not favor any particular family among the four major families and six aristocratic clans. But you've forgotten that the Hou family has always protected their own. Ruan Ruan is my wife, and I won't let anyone bully her."


Su Jingshu's face paled, and she couldn't maintain her composure any longer. "Young Master... You..."


She couldn't even utter a complete sentence, unable to comprehend how the situation had escalated to its current state.


Hou Yunjiao exuded an innate air of nobility and prestige, his voice slightly grave. "The incident that happened at the Hou family last night hasn't been traced back to the Su family for now. It's best for you to be cautious and not let my second brother discover any connection between this matter and the Su family. Otherwise, whether or not your Su family will have a place to stay in the capital city remains to be seen."


Su Jingshu tightly clenched her hands, her complexion draining of color, and even her delicate makeup appeared dull.


In the past few years, the major families and aristocratic clans had engaged in both overt and covert struggles, yet the Hou family had never uttered words like asking any family to leave the capital city.


But today, when those words came from Hou Yunjiao's mouth, it was as good


 as a settled matter.


Fear and anxiety filled Su Jingshu's heart as a tremendous crisis loomed over her. She couldn't hold back her words for a moment longer. "Young Master, my Su family has stood tall in the capital city for a hundred years, and we've never thought of surpassing the Hou family."

"For centuries, the major families have supported each other. Are you really willing to go this far for the sake of one woman? Aren't you afraid that the Hou family will be undermined by other families and accused of being unrighteous and unjust? What face will the Hou family have left?"


A low, pleasant chuckle sounded as Hou Yunjiao, in front of Su Jingshu, held Qin Ruan's hand and played with it delicately.


"Ruan Ruan is my wife, and you should address her as the Third Madam Hou. In the near future, she will be the mistress of the Huo family."


The Third Young Master raised his gaze, looking directly at Su Jingshu's uneasy expression, and spoke with a calm and domineering tone, "The Hou family has never needed anyone to meddle in its affairs. This is the timeless style of the Hou family."


Su Jingshu took a deep breath, her voice trembling as she said, "Even if I was inappropriate in my words to the Third Madam Hou, you shouldn't threaten me with the mighty Su family. That would be extremely unfair!"


"Unfair?" the Hou Yunjiao sarcastically laughed.


His patience wearing thin, his voice turned cold and ruthless, "The reason the Hou family has turned a blind eye to the actions of the Su family in recent years, do you know why?"


Su Jingshu hadn't expected Hou Yunjiao to bring up old accounts at this moment.
