Shen Zhixue frowned and looked at Chu Yue.
"Sister, don't think too much, Mr. Lu must be..."
Before he finished speaking, Chu Yue said bluntly, "I believe him."
Hearing this, Shen Zhixue suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister, just believe him. The way Guan Linglong behaves, it's obvious that he deliberately wants to drive a wedge between you and Mr. Lu. Don't fall into the trap." She looked at Chu Yue, "But having said that, Mr. Lu is so good, sister. You have to keep a close eye on him."
Thinking that Lu Xinghe would leave for the capital in six months, Chu Yue felt a little melancholy for no reason.
After a moment, she said softly, "If he has me in his heart, he doesn't need to look at me. If he doesn't have me in his heart, it's useless to look at him."
After being slightly stunned, Shen Zhixue nodded.
"My sister is right."
One after another, her father carried her aunts through the door. She saw her mother's transformation from jealousy and resentment to despair. Although she yearned for the so-called love in the world, she did not expect it.
I got my haircut last year, and it’s time to get married this year. I don’t know what my family’s plans are.
After all, she couldn't say a few words in that family, so she simply kept out of sight and kept her money in hand. No matter which family she married to in the future, her life would not be too passive.
The two chatted for another half an hour before Kuroki came back.
"Master, there are no oleanders planted in Guan Mansion, but the Zhou family on Chunxi Road does, and the branches have signs of being pruned recently."
"The Zhou family on Chunxi Road?"
Chu Yue searched her memory and found that Chunxi Road seemed to be on the outskirts of the county and not in the same area as Guanfu. Could there be any connection between the two families?
Or did they conflict with the interests of the Zhou family?
Just when Chu Yue was confused, Shen Zhixue spoke.
"Because of Lishuijian, I have also done some homework during this period. The Zhou family on Chunxi Road is Mrs. Guan's natal family and Guan Linglong's maternal ancestor's family."
Chu Yue suddenly realized.
"If that's the case, it makes sense."
It seems that this oleander incident is closely related to Guan Linglong.
"What about hellebores?"
"The matter of Hellebore has been in the past for too long and is not very noticeable. It is difficult to find out immediately. I need some time." Kuroki said truthfully.
Chu Yue nodded, "Then let's not investigate for now. The person behind the scenes made a move once, and there might be a second time. Don't worry yet."
The most important thing is that she already has a goal.
"yes."
After Kuroki finished speaking, he jumped out of the attic and disappeared out of the window in an instant.
Shen Zhixue looked at Chu Yue, "What are my sister's plans next?"
"I originally thought that Guan Linglong and Shen Zhixia would join forces and it would be difficult for my sister to deal with it alone, but I didn't expect it to be much easier than I thought."
Shen Zhixue smiled helplessly.
"I've been fighting for so many years, so I'm used to it. Besides, I don't have any connections in Tongzhi County. Guan Linglong doesn't dare to mess with me in a big way."
Chu Yue stood up.
"I've been bothering Sister Shen for a long time today, so I won't bother you any more."
"What are you talking about? My sister is too ignorant." Shen Zhixue stood up with a smile, "My sister helped me a lot today. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be sure what kind of poison is in this beauty cream. Besides, The business method my sister just told me is very clever, I will give it a try in the shop now, and if the effect is satisfactory, we will follow my sister's method in the future."
"Okay, then I'll leave first and say goodbye." After Chu Yue finished speaking, she bowed slightly towards Shen Zhixue.
Shen Zhixue hurriedly returned the gift.
"Sister, walk slowly."
After coming out of Hongyan Pavilion, Chu Yue went straight to the tea shop where Lu Xinghe was.
But as soon as he arrived at the tea shop, he was stopped at the door by Guan Linglong.
Chu Yue looked at her coldly.
"Step aside!"
Guan Linglong glanced at her, with a hint of pride on her face, "I won't get out of the way, what can you do to me? You don't know yet, right? My brother Xinghe and I just finished talking."
She looked at Chu Yue's outstretched hand.
"Try pushing me!"
"Since you can't push, it's not too much for me to give you a tug, right?"
Before Guan Linglong could react, a faint smile appeared on Chu Yue's lips. She reached forward, pinched Guan Linglong's wrist hard and pulled her out the door. She staggered and fell to the ground. Not caring whether she was dead or alive, he clapped his hands and went upstairs.
Guan Linglong threw herself face down on the ground, and the raised mud covered her face, smearing the delicate makeup she had put on to meet Lu Xinghe.
Guan Linglong was lying on the ground, her nostrils flaring and shrinking because of anger, her fists clenched, and her eyes fierce.
"ah!!!"
Seeing this, the maid behind him immediately helped Guan Linglong up.
"Miss, get up quickly."
Then, Guan Linglong didn't appreciate the maid's kindness. After getting up, she slapped the maid hard on the face.
In an instant, an obvious slap mark appeared on the maid's face.
With tears in her eyes, the maid looked at Guan Linglong with great grievance.
"Miss……"
"Shut up!"
Guan Linglong took a deep breath to suppress the anger in her heart. Soon, the expression on her face changed from extremely angry to aggrieved.
She pouted her lips, her eyes were as red as a bunny, she sniffed, then pulled her skirt and went upstairs.
Chu Yue went to the teahouse and directly found Lu Xinghe who was sitting by the window.
"My husband is quite leisurely. He can have a cup of tea with a beautiful woman."
Lu Xinghe glanced in her direction.
"If I said that when you came over from Hongyan Building, she happened to come to say hello to me, would you believe it?"
Although Chu Yue didn't say whether she believed it or not, she believed Lu Xinghe's words in her heart, but she still felt unhappy.
"Then why is she still sitting here?"
"She made an excuse that the tea shop was crowded and there was no room, so she sat down without waiting for my consent." Lu Xinghe replied seriously.
Chu Yue said oh.
"She finally got the opportunity to have tea with you, so how come she was reluctant to leave later?"
Lu Xinghe pursed his lips and smiled, then reached out and pinched Chu Yue's nose.
"My little Moon is jealous. If she doesn't leave, I will leave."
Chu Yue snorted.
"Then how long has she been here?"
"When you looked over, she had just arrived. After you looked away from here, she left."
Chu Yue pursed her lips, stood up and said, "Then let's go."
Before Lu Xinghe could stand up, he saw a figure running up from the stairs and pounced on Lu Xinghe like a butterfly.
"Brother Xinghe, you have to make the decision for me."
Looking at Guan Linglong with pear blossoms and rain, Lu Xinghe frowned slightly, and before she touched him, he stood up, walked around the chair and left his position.
Guan Linglong originally wanted to step forward and grab Lu Xinghe's arm, but now the other person had left the chair, and Guan Linglong couldn't stop herself and threw herself in the direction of the chair.
Seeing this, Lu Xinghe pulled the chair he was sitting on back.
