Chapter 4

Zhangsun Jing looked at me as if her eyes were filled with tens of thousands of icy shards, seemingly wanting to pierce through me.

[Lady Xu, please leave. As for today's words, I can pretend not to have heard them.]

I slightly bowed, walked out the door with my maid, and returned to the Xu Mansion.

Although Zhangsun Jing refused, I was certain she would be moved.

In the previous life, she shaved her head to become a nun. When the Minister of War was being purged, she even led two hundred people in a desperate attempt to rescue him.

Now that she is still a lady of the Zhangsun Family, when the day comes, the number of people will certainly exceed two hundred.

I looked at the grand gate of the Xu Mansion, feeling a bit dazed.

Supported by my maid, I walked inside.

As I raised my head, I saw my father, mother, and Liu Ruyan sitting together, chatting and laughing.

If one didn't know better, they would think Liu Ruyan was the legitimate young mistress of the Xu Mansion.
