Zhang had saved a lot of personal money in the Marquis' Mansion over the years, and had bought a small house for herself and Xiao Yunni to live in.

Tonight, a great change suddenly happened in the Marquis' Mansion. Although it was already late at night, both the mother and daughter were not sleepy and did not mind the heat. They lay on the same couch and talked privately.

Zhang mentioned Xiao Xuetang...

"We are where we are today thanks to Xuetang. But she has already torn her relationship with the Marquis's Mansion, so why is she still staying here and not going to the Xie family?"

Others didn't know why, but Xiao Yunni knew in her heart that Xiao Xuetang probably just couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart.

In his previous life, Xiao Xuetang ended up being deserted by his friends and relatives, and Xie and Xiao Yu were also accomplices.

Now that Xiao Xuetang has avenged himself and sent the two culprits, Xiao Yi and Ye Jin, to the Heavenly Prison, he has done the most for Xie's mother and son in this life. How can he force Xiao Xuetang to accept them?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yunni felt sorry for Xiao Xuetang. Seeing Zhang looking at her, she said casually, "She may not want to live in the Xie family. She may not be used to the local climate."

Zhang...

Xiao Yunni threw herself into Zhang's arms and said in a sticky voice, "Xiao Xuetang's ideas are always right. She must have her own plans for staying in the Marquis' Mansion. She is not like me who likes to stick to my mother."

What Xiao Yunni didn't say was that according to her understanding of Xiao Xuetang, it seemed that Xiao Yi and Ye Jin couldn't turn things around, so the next target might be Lin Shaoshu...

Anyway, she told Xiao Xuetang everything she knew in her previous life. Now that Xiao Xuetang has Lin Xun and the Xie family to back her up, she doesn't have to worry about anything.

She is a useless person. She has no ability to seek revenge in her life again. She just wants to be with her mother and live a peaceful life. It's good enough like this now!

What Xiao Yunni didn't know was that her so-called peaceful life would be disrupted by a shameless prince in the near future.

When Zhang heard Xiao Yunni's words, the sadness between her brows finally relaxed a little, but she pretended to be disgusted and said, "You are so clingy at such an old age. What will you do when you get married in the future..."

Although she disliked it, Zhang was happy in her heart.

The relationship between the couple has been bad over the years since she married Xiao Qian, but she does not regret it as Xiao Yunni is by her side.

On the contrary, it was Xie and Xiao Xuetang mother and daughter...

When Zhang looked at Xiao Yunni again, she no longer envied Xie. Forget it, let her daughter be a little silly. Fools have good fortunes!

……

At this time, Xiao Xuetang, who was being nagged by Zhang and Xiao Yunni, mother and daughter, returned to Litangju exhausted both physically and mentally.

What made her tired was not dealing with the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion, but handling her relationship with Xie and others.

Just as Xiao Yunni guessed, the reason why Xiao Xuetang chose to continue staying in Litangju instead of going to the familiar and safe Xie family was because he didn't know how to face the Xie family.

She was about to leave the Marquis' Mansion, and she had already cleared all ties with Xie Xiaoyu. Why would she still choose to live under the same roof with them?

Or, continue with her previous choice, wait until everything is settled, leave Kyoto and settle down for the rest of her life in a place where no one knows her.

Can……

When the two options were once again presented to him, when facing the second option, Xiao Xuetang inexplicably felt a little reluctant.

Is she reluctant to leave the place where she has lived for two lifetimes, or is she reluctant to leave... the people here?

She was so preoccupied that she didn't notice that the road from the garden to Litangju was terribly quiet; even the chirping of autumn insects had weakened!

She pushed open the half-open gate...

The yard was pitch black. Was it because Bihen didn't turn on the light?

The next moment, with a "chi" sound, a wisp of fire jumped in the darkness, and suddenly a handsome and almost enchanting face appeared in front of Xiao Xuetang under the flickering candlelight!

The sudden appearance of light and the swaying and fanning flames distorted and blurred the face that suddenly appeared for a moment...

"Lin..."

As his eyes adjusted to the light, the flames gradually calmed down. Xiao Xuetang squinted and looked at the handsome man in black clothes who suddenly appeared. The smile on his face faded and he asked, "Why is it you?"

Fo Shu was let go by Lin Xun in front of the dark room last time.

I feel suffocated when I think of Xiao Xuetang!

Lin Xun now told her everything he knew. The regent, who had always been feared by everyone, was unexpectedly good-tempered in front of her and agreed to almost everything she asked.

Except for one thing, which was related to Foshu, Lin Xun gave Xiao Xuetang a strange feeling. She always felt that the connection between the two was very subtle.

She didn’t know if it was because... their eyes were somewhat similar, she even couldn’t tell them apart in her dreams.

But the moment she saw Foshu, Xiao Xuetang realized very clearly that the man whose face she could never see clearly in her dreams was definitely not him!

Even though he seemed to be the type she liked...but instinctively, Xiao Xuetang wanted to stay away from this man.

This kind of keen intuition.

Originally, Xiao Xuetang thought that after Foshu ran away, things would be quiet for a while, but she didn't expect that he would start making trouble again.

Many thoughts flashed through his mind at once, and he quietly grasped the hidden weapon in his sleeve, staring with cold eyes at the uninvited guest who came in the middle of the night.

Fu Shu stared at the woman who remained calm despite the shock, and seemed to see some shadows of her past in her.

Under the jumping flames, the cold eyes fell on the woman, as if to tear out her bones and marrow...

He sneered and said in a strange voice: "You seemed very surprised to see me just now. Who did you think I was..."

"Lin Shaoshu, or Lin Xun?"

Under the dim light, Foshu's facial features seemed to become a little blurry. Xiao Xuetang blinked, but soon returned to normal!

She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, pretending to be calm on her face: "I just pulled out a spy from your Tianxuan Sect. Now Qi Yusheng should go to the Liu family to arrest people. Is the priest really going to sit here and wait for death without doing anything?"

But the subtle expression on Foshu's face did not change at all. He said calmly, "Those are just insignificant little people. They are not important."

Xiao Xuetang listened to his calm tone and frowned slightly...

Fu Shu raised the corner of his lips, and in the blink of an eye, he suddenly approached Xiao Xuetang and said, "I have said before that in the whole of Kyoto, the person I am most interested in is you..."

But before his hand touched Xiao Xuetang, he saw several silver needles flash in the dark. This time he seemed to have sensed something and quickly dodged them.

"Such a highly poisonous hidden weapon... It seems that you still remember what I taught you very clearly."

The man who was almost ambushed was not angry, but laughed. In the dark night, his dark eyes stared at Xiao Xuetang, as if asking, "But why have you changed?"

"Why change the fate of those who deserve to die?"

Xiao Xuetang didn't have time to think about who those people who deserved to die were. He only heard him say, "The guilty were punished, and the innocent were saved. This happy ending is really annoying."

Hearing his strange tone in the darkness, Xiao Xuetang's heart suddenly sank, and he subconsciously asked, "What did you do?"

……

Under the cover of night, the Xie family's carriage was driving steadily on the official road, when suddenly the coachman stopped the carriage!

"Ghost... ghost!"

Several terrified voices broke the peaceful night in Kyoto...
