Lu Nianyao sneered and no longer responded to Zhang Xiangxiu's hypocrisy.

She turned and left. This mansion was where she had lived in her previous life. She was familiar with every inch of it.

Since Lu Zhiran didn't want to see her, she would go find him herself.

Lu Nianyao didn't believe a word of Lu Zhiran's excuse for not being at home. She knew that Lu Zhiran was the one who liked to stay at home the most, and it was impossible for him not to be at home so late at night.

So she took Rou'er and went straight to the courtyard where she lived in her previous life.

Rou'er followed behind her, although she was a little nervous, but when she saw Lu Nianyao's aggressive steps, she mustered up the courage to follow.

As the night deepens, the moonlight shines on the bluestone path, making it seem particularly quiet and peaceful.

Lu Nianyao walked on the familiar path, but her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

This used to be her home, the place where she lived, but now everything has changed and has become strange and distant.

She pushed open the gate and what came into view was a familiar scene.

The flowers, plants and trees in the yard are still there, but the laughter and joy of the past are missing.

When Lu Nianyao stepped into this familiar courtyard, she was immediately surrounded by a light and elegant floral scent. She looked around and saw that the courtyard was elegantly and peacefully decorated, exactly the same as the scene in her previous life. However, when she glanced at the maids and servants in the courtyard, she saw unfamiliar expressions on their faces.

The maids were wearing uniform clothes and their hair was combed into neat buns. They were either standing or sitting still, and when they saw Lu Nianyao coming, they all had a look of confusion on their faces.

One of the slightly older maids came forward, with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.

"Miss, who are you? Why did you come here without permission?" Her voice was a little cold, and she was obviously dissatisfied with Lu Nianyao's sudden visit.

Lu Nianyao smiled slightly, her smile revealing a bit of confidence and composure.

"I am your wife's sister. I have something to discuss with her." She said calmly, without a trace of emotion in her tone.

When the maids heard Lu Nianyao say that she was Lu Zhiran's sister, they looked at each other in surprise.

Is this even believable?

Just then Xiaoying walked out of the crowd, and she saw a hint of surprise flash in Lu Nianyao's eyes.

"Miss, why are you here?" Xiaoying's tone was filled with confusion and nervousness.

She used to be Lu Nianyao's personal maid, and no one understood Lu Nianyao's changeable temperament better than her.

How come she came here like this?

Are all those servants outside the door dead?

How could we let Lu Nianyao in?

Lu Nianyao looked at Xiaoying, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

Xiaoying was wearing clean clothes and her spirited appearance was completely different from her timid appearance at that time.

At this moment, I am very generous and open.

Looks very powerful.

Lu Zhiran is really good at training people!

The people who left her hands have become like this now.

Lu Nianyao was a little unhappy, but there was still no expression on her face.

"Xiaoying, I'm here to look for your wife. Where is she?" Lu Nianyao's tone was somewhat condescending.

Xiaoying hesitated for a moment, she glanced at the maids and servants around her, then whispered: "Madam went out to the lake with the daughter of the Zhang family today, and she hasn't come back yet. Miss, why don't you go inside and wait."

I didn't expect that Lu Zhiran was actually not at home.

Is the Zhang family the family of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of War?

There was only one daughter in that family, Zhang Wan'er. She was very arrogant. Relying on the fact that the princess was her friend, she looked up to the sky and never looked anyone in the eye.

How could I have any intersection with others?

Lu Nianyao nodded and turned to walk into the house.

As she walked past the maids and servants, she felt strange looks from them. She knew that they were secretly sizing her up, guessing her identity and purpose.

She walked into the hall and saw that the room was decorated warmly and elegantly.

There were several landscape paintings hanging on the wall, several potted plants placed in front of the window, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers. Lu Nianyao walked to the table and sat down, and began to wait patiently for Lu Zhiran's return.

While waiting, Lu Nianyao began to ask Xiaoying about what had happened since Lu Zhiran got married.

Xiaoying said this half-truthfully.

He had no idea how much shock he had caused Lu Nianyao.

Time passed slowly as she waited, and the red candle was half burned out, just when Lu Nianyao's patience was about to run out.

At this moment, there was a sound of light footsteps outside the door, accompanied by the maids' low and respectful greetings, as if announcing the arrival of the master.

Lu Nianyao straightened her back immediately, with a complex emotion in her heart. She walked to the door and stared at the figure that was about to appear.

Lu Zhiran's figure appeared in sight.

She walked slowly, each step seemed to be carefully calculated, graceful and calm. The candlelight in the room shone through the window lattice on her, covering her with a layer of golden halo.

After not seeing him for many days, Lu Zhiran seemed to look better than before.

Originally she was just pure and beautiful, but now, she has a kind of aura that makes people afraid to approach her, making people feel a sense of nobleness that is both cold and scary.

Her skin is as white as jade, her eyes are as deep as the sea, and her red lips reveal a bit of majesty and nobility.

Lu Zhiran was not surprised to see Lu Nianyao.

After all, when she arrived at the door, the servant had already told her what happened today.

I wanted to leave her alone, but I didn't expect her to be so impatient to come to me on her own.

Did something bad happen?

That's really good!

"Sister, why are you here? Is there something wrong?" Lu Zhiran's voice was cold and pleasant, but it revealed an unquestionable majesty.

At this moment, Lu Nian Yao felt as if she couldn't raise her head in front of her.

But the next second, Lu Nianyao looked at Lu Zhiran, and a strong hatred surged in her heart.

But she tried to stay calm, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly.

Already calm.

"I asked the maid to look for you these days, why didn't you go back?"

She would temporarily bow to Lu Zhiran, and she would take back all the humiliations she suffered from Lu Zhiran in the future.

Lu Nianyao thought to herself.

"Oh! So my sister came here for this matter."

Lu Zhiran took off his cloak and handed it to the maid. The weather was getting colder, and Lu Nian Yao had to wear such thin but expensive clothes to save face and waited in this cold hall for so long.

It’s not easy!

Lu Zhiran laughed in his heart.

"I've been too busy these past two days. I attended the Zhang family's young master's first birthday party and met the Zhang family's daughter. You know she's a domineering person. She insisted on dragging me out to play, and I refused no matter what I said."

"I don't dare to offend her, so I can only let my sister down temporarily..."
