The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

"I haven't been back to the Lin family for quite some time now. I'm afraid my family will worry."

Gu Nanyuan opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to start.

After all, Lin Ruoxuan hasn't returned home for a long time, so it's inevitable that her family won't be worried.

It would be fine for others, but Lin Ruoxuan's mother and sisters are sincere to Lin Ruoxuan.

It has been quite some time since they last went home. Although they knew that Lin Ruoxuan would be fine at Gu's house, they still couldn't help but worry.

"In that case, I won't keep you here. Take care of yourself. I'll come see you tomorrow."

Gu Nanyuan thought he wouldn't be able to see Lin Ruoxuan for a long time, but unexpectedly Lin Ruoxuan said she would come tomorrow, which made Gu Nanyuan a little excited.

"I'm waiting for you."

Lin Ruoxuan returned to the Lin family, and everyone in the mansion could feel her happiness.

Lin Ruoxue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw the smile on Lin Ruoxuan's eyes and eyebrows.

"Why? What good news has happened to you?"

Ever since Gu Nanyuan was poisoned, her sister hasn't smiled like this for a long time.

Thinking of Gu Nanyuan, Lin Ruoxue's heart couldn't help but move.

Could it be that Gu Nanyuan has woken up?

But she did not ask this question, after all, there were not only two of them in the room.

Lin Ruoxue glanced at the people serving in the room and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Qi Zeshen had reminded her before that as long as the Gu family did not let the news out, they'd better not tell others that Gu Nanyuan had used the thousand-year-old snow lotus.

Although Lin Ruoxue didn't know the reason, since Gu Nanyuan had already reminded her, this was no longer their Lin family's business.

Besides, the Gu family has its own considerations, so it’s better for her, an outsider, not to interfere.

What's more, this thousand-year-old snow lotus was stolen from the Zhao family by Lin Ruoxuan and her friends. If Zhao Xiaozhi pursues this matter, it will not be a good thing for their Lin family and Lin Ruoxuan.

Lin Ruoxuan saw the look on her elder sister's face and realized that she must have guessed what happened to Gu Nanyuan.

But since Lin Ruoxue didn't ask any further questions, she didn't need to find excuses to cover it up.

The two sisters looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.

Lin Ruoqiao on the side looked at the two of them strangely, not understanding why the atmosphere between them had become so strange.

But just when she was about to ask something, the voice of a servant was heard outside the door.

"Eldest Miss, Seventh Miss, Eighth Miss, Master and Madam heard that Eighth Miss has returned home, so they specially invite you all to come over for dinner."

Lin Ruoxuan raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that her father was so well-informed. It seemed that not only was there someone from the backyard at the gatehouse, but even her elder sister's yard was probably being watched by someone from her father's side.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but squint her eyes and look at the people serving Lin Ruoxue in the yard.

Seeing that everyone lowered their heads with a docile look, Lin Ruoxuan withdrew her gaze.

"Since father invited us, of course we have to go. However, I just returned home and need to pack up. I would like to trouble nanny to apologize to father and mother."

The old nanny responded and left the yard.

After everyone left, Lin Ruoxuan looked at Lin Ruoxue.

"What do you think, big sister?"

She didn't believe that Lin Ruoxue didn't see what was going on. After all, this man was kept in her yard, so it was impossible for her not to know about it.

Lin Ruoxue was stunned, and when she came to her senses, she understood what Lin Ruoxuan meant.

However, thinking of the people Lin Shiyuan had arranged for her, Lin Ruoxue did not speak. She just shook her head and glanced towards the door with an imperceptible look.

Lin Ruoxuan followed her gaze and saw a servant in pink clothes standing at the door.

Although they were far away and the other party looked very respectful, Lin Ruoxuan could tell at a glance that the maid's eyes were not at peace.

After meeting this person, is there anything else that Lin Ruoxuan doesn't understand?

I'm afraid this is the person Lin Shiyuan arranged in Lin Ruoxue's courtyard.

“I wonder when it was delivered?”

Lin Ruoxuan's nonsensical words made Lin Ruoqiao a little confused.

But when she saw that Lin Ruoxue and Lin Ruoxuan both looked indifferent, she didn't dare to ask.

Hearing this, Lin Ruoxuan took a sip of tea and said, "It has been delivered since the day you left the house."

Lin Ruoxuan couldn't help but frown when she heard that. It seemed that Lin Shiyuan hadn't let go of the thoughts in his mind yet.

He probably acted like this because he felt that Gu Nanyuan would never wake up again and the Gu family could no longer be his support, which made Lin Shiyuan become unscrupulous.

As for the affairs of the Qi family and the eldest sister, I'm afraid Lin Shiyuan will have to intervene at that time.

It’s a pity that Lin Shiyuan still overestimated himself. Now their Lin family has long been in decline, and they are marrying up no matter whether it is the Gu family or the Qi family.

Lin Shiyuan wanted to use his elder sister to get close to the Qi family, but he was afraid that in the end it would be in vain.

"Don't worry, big sister. Master Qi is here for you. No matter how much your father thinks, it won't affect you in any way."

When Lin Ruoxue heard what Lin Ruoxuan said, she was stunned, and then she understood what Lin Ruoxuan meant.

Seeing the unconcealable coldness in Lin Ruoxuan's eyes, Lin Ruoxue couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that the misunderstanding between her eighth sister and her father was really deep.

However, thinking of what Lin Shiyuan had done, Lin Ruoxue did not say anything that would make Lin Ruoxuan forgive Lin Shiyuan.

After all, it is a fact that Lin Shiyuan once favored his concubine over his wife. If it weren't for Lin Ruoxuan's intelligence, I'm afraid that these sisters and even their mother would have died.

Lin Ruoxue still can't forget the words and expression her father He Linjiang said when she was in the Ou family and tried to get him to support her.

Although the Ou family has now been convicted and the Lin family is no longer headed by the Liu family, the past still cannot be erased from her heart.

If her eighth sister had not spoken up to help her when she was humiliated by the Ou family that day, she would probably have died by now.

Thinking that after she left the Ou family, the Ou family had no intention of letting her go and even wanted to use her and her child as stepping stones, Lin Ruoxue couldn't help but close her eyes.

The person who gave these ideas to the Ou family was Liu. She didn't believe that her father's ability could not find out who was the mastermind behind these things.

The reason why Lin Shiyuan did not pursue these matters was simply because he was unwilling to investigate and unwilling to suppress the Liu family.

Thinking of this, Lin Ruoxue's hands holding the teacup were trembling slightly.

All this was thanks to my eighth sister.
