193 Return to Anlin

"What?"

Lu Ziqing exclaimed in surprise.

Song Lili chuckled, "What's surprising? It's good to be ambitious, what if it comes true?"

Lu Ziqing took a deep breath. Although Song Lili's stepmother's ambition was indeed grand, he found it more draining than amusing.

The Lu Family was also a major household in Anlin, and he himself had come from Anlin City. What was Anlin like, this bustling capital with its beautiful façade, hiding how much political strife, business strife, and struggles among the elite?

Just hearing Song Lili say this, Lu Ziqing already had a bad premonition...

"What kind of person is your stepmother, really?"

"Outwardly a virtuous wife and good mother, inwardly treacherous and complicated."

Song Lili spoke indifferently and casually.

"Living with such a person, you..."

"Brother Lu, don't worry, right now they wouldn't dare do anything to me."

"Right now they don't dare, but what about later?"

"Later, they'll be even less likely to dare."
