The carriage outside the mansion had been waiting for a long time. When the coachman saw them coming out, he hurried forward and saluted.

Fu Yuzhang very considerately helped Lu Zhiran into the carriage, and then he got in too.

The carriage started slowly and drove towards the palace.

In the car, Lu Zhiran sat quite far away from Fu Yuzhang to prevent him from doing anything else.

Lu Zhiran was originally a slow-to-warm-up person, and he was a little overwhelmed by Fu Yuzhang's hot-and-cold attitude.

So annoying!

Fu Yuzhang laughed at the various annoyed expressions on Lu Zhiran's face.

The carriage stopped in front of the palace. In front of outsiders, Lu Zhiran was still very cooperative with Fu Yuzhang, and the two got off the carriage hand in hand.

They passed through the palace gates and came to the imperial garden.

Flowers are in full bloom in the garden, the fragrance is overwhelming, guests are coming in an endless stream, and laughter is heard one after another.

Lu Zhiran and Fu Yuzhang walked into the Imperial Garden under the attention of everyone. Their arrival immediately caused a small commotion. But the two were used to it. They walked gracefully through the crowd and came to the little princess Su Ran.

Su Ran was very happy to see Lu Zhiran, but when she saw Lu Zhiran holding hands with Fu Yuzhang, her face instantly fell.

Su Ran was a little unhappy. She had only invited Lu Zhiran to come, so why did Fu Yuzhang come as well? She grumbled to herself but didn't show it. She turned to look at Lu Zhiran, a hint of joy flashing in her eyes.

"Zhiran, you're finally here." Su Ran held Lu Zhiran's hand with a bright smile on her face, "You don't even know, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Su Ran simply ignored the annoying Fu Yuzhang and pulled Lu Zhiran over.

Lu Zhiran smiled and replied: "Princess, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Something happened on the way and I was delayed for a while."

Su Ran didn't say much after hearing this, but just held Lu Zhiran's hand and kept asking her about her recent situation. Lu Zhiran answered patiently, and the atmosphere between the two was very harmonious.

Fu Yuzhang stood aside, looking at the intimacy between the two, and couldn't help feeling a little jealous.

He coughed a few times, trying to attract Lu Zhiran and Su Ran's attention.

"Cough cough cough..." Fu Yuzhang cleared his throat, hoping to bring the topic back to himself.

Lu Zhiran asked with concern: "Yu Zhang, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" There was worry in her eyes, and she gently patted the back of Fu Yu Zhang's hand.

Su Ran originally planned to ignore it, but since Lu Zhiran didn't care about Fu Yuzhang, she had to pretend to care and ask.

"Fu Yuzhang, you are not feeling well!"

The next second, Su Ran changed the subject, revealing a hint of sarcasm in her tone: "Actually, there was no need for you to force yourself to follow Lu Zhiran here. After all, you were not invited here."

Fu Yuzhang's face also became a little embarrassed. He didn't expect Su Ran to expose his lies so directly.

This damn Su Ran, why is he so annoying!

Only she can defeat others on the spot.

"Is it wrong for me to come with my wife? Could it be that the little princess's Hundred Flowers Banquet doesn't even have the capacity to host one more person like me?"

Fu Yuzhang responded with a sharp tongue.

Su Ran provoked him and hit a brick wall.

Su Ran's words surprised Lu Zhiran a little. She looked at Fu Yuzhang with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Didn’t Su Ran invite Fu Yuzhang?

Didn't he say he wanted to accompany him?

What's the situation?

Seeing Lu Zhiran looking at him, Fu Yuzhang pretended to be calm on the surface, but he was very embarrassed on the inside. At this moment, he just wanted to find a crack in the ground, jump in and never come out again.

Seeing that Fu Yuzhang actually dared to fight back.

Su Ran continued to embarrass Fu Yuzhang. Back then in the Fu Mansion, Fu Yuzhang had repeatedly destroyed the relationship between her and Lu Zhiran, and she wanted to pay him back one by one.

"You don't seem to be feeling well, why don't you go back early and spend some time with your concubine!"

Fu Yuzhang's eyes were slightly cold, and the corners of his mouth raised a provocative arc, with a bit of sharpness in his voice: "Little Princess, don't worry about this. After all, the little princess has many good friends!"

Su Ran was a little stunned by his sudden counterattack. She didn't expect Fu Yuzhang to respond to her so directly.

She stared at his handsome and indifferent face with wide eyes, and an inexplicable anger surged in her heart.

Lu Zhiran stood aside, watching the tension between the two people grow stronger and stronger, and couldn't help feeling a little worried.

She gently pulled Fu Yuzhang's sleeve, trying to calm him down. However, Fu Yuzhang seemed not to notice her action and continued to stare at Su Ran coldly.

Su Ran had a cute and lovely face, with a pair of big eyes that sparkled with a lively light. She wore a pink dress, the hem of which fluttered gently, like a blooming flower. However, at this moment, her face was full of displeasure and anger.

"Fu Yuzhang, don't go too far!" Su Ran said angrily, "This is my Hundred Flowers Banquet. I have the final say on who I want to invite and who I don't want to invite!"

"Get out of here now."

Fu Yuzhang sneered and said, "Ha! I don't care about it. Then let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, whispers were heard in the imperial garden.

The guests were attracted by this sudden dispute and cast curious glances.

Su Ran's face became even uglier. She didn't expect Fu Yuzhang to embarrass her in front of so many people. She bit her lips tightly, and a trace of anger and unwillingness flashed in her eyes.

Seeing that Fu Yuzhang was really going to take Lu Zhiran away, Su Ran immediately grabbed Lu Zhiran's other hand.

"Don't leave."

Lu Zhiran, who was being fought over by two people at the same time, felt a headache at the moment.

What is this all about!

She didn't want to cause the two of them to argue because of her, and she didn't want to become the focus of the argument.

She gently pulled Fu Yuzhang's sleeve and whispered, "Yuzhang, forget it, let's stop arguing."

However, Fu Yuzhang ignored her persuasion and continued to stare at Su Ran coldly. Su Ran was not intimidated either, she held Lu Zhiran's hand tightly and refused to let go.

"Zhi Ran, you can't leave!" Su Ran said anxiously, "You are my guest, I can't let you be taken away by him like this."

Lu Zhiran sighed helplessly, knowing that she had become a "hostage" in this dispute. She looked up at Fu Yuzhang, hoping that he could calm down. However, Fu Yuzhang's eyes revealed firmness and determination, as if to say, "No matter what, I will take you away."

Just when the atmosphere was about to reach its climax, brisk footsteps were heard from the other end of the Imperial Garden.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a palace maid hurrying over with an anxious expression on her face.

"Princess, the Queen summons you." The maid said breathlessly.

Su Ran's face changed when he heard this.

Why did the Queen Mother suddenly summon her at this time? Couldn't she wait a little longer?

Although he thought so, Su Ran knew that he couldn't delay any longer.

She glared at Fu Yuzhang fiercely, then said to Lu Zhiran.

"I'm going to go to my mother first. Don't go with him, or I'll be angry."
