The two walked into the mansion side by side, chatting and laughing all the way. The servants in the mansion greeted Lu Yundi when they saw her, and she always had a kind smile on her face.

"Madam, please come this way." Chu Qirui pointed to an exquisite courtyard in front and said, "This is a corner of my humble home. If you don't mind, you can rest here for a while."

Lu Yundi nodded slightly and followed him into the courtyard. The courtyard was full of green trees and flowers, full of vitality.

In the pavilion of the courtyard, the two sat down as host and guest. Chu Qirui personally poured a cup of tea for Lu Yundi and handed it to her.

"Madam, this tea is unique to the Chongren Marquis' Mansion. It is called 'Bi Luo Chun'. It has a unique aroma and a refreshing taste." Chu Qirui introduced.

Lu Yundi took a sip and smiled, "Good tea, good tea. The young marquis is really thoughtful."

The two of them chatted while drinking tea in a harmonious atmosphere. Chu Qirui looked at Lu Yundi, with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Madam, we haven't seen each other for many years. Do you know that I have always been thinking about you?" Chu Qirui suddenly said.

Lu Yundi was stunned. She didn't expect Chu Qirui to express his feelings so bluntly. She gently put down the teacup and smiled, "Young Marquis, you are joking. Madam, I am already married and I only have my husband in my heart."

Chu Qirui's eyes flashed with disappointment, but he quickly concealed it and said with a smile: "Madam, you are too kind. I just feel that time flies and things are different."

As night fell, the lanterns in the courtyard slowly lit up. Chu Qirui looked at the bright moon in the sky and suddenly said, "Madam, do you think this moon is beautiful?"

Lu Yundi raised his head slightly, looked at the bright moon, and smiled: "Beautiful, very beautiful. This moon is just like the moon we watched together when we were young. Time flies, but it has never changed."

Chu Qirui was silent for a moment. He looked at Lu Yundi, with a hint of determination in his eyes. He took a deep breath and said, "Madam, I have a request. I hope you can agree to it."

Lu Yundi nodded slightly: "Young Marquis, please speak."

Chu Qirui looked at her with determination in his eyes: "Madam, I hope you can stay in the Chongren Marquis Mansion and accompany me for the rest of my life."

Lu Yundi was stunned. She didn't expect Chu Qirui to make such a request. She looked at Chu Qirui, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. She shook her head gently and smiled, "Young Marquis, Madam, I already have a husband, and my heart can't accommodate anyone else."

Chu Qirui's eyes flashed with disappointment, but he quickly regained his composure. He looked at Lu Yundi and smiled, "Madam, I understand your decision. I just hope that I can do something for you in my lifetime."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly: "Young Marquis, I appreciate your kindness. But Madam, I already have a husband, and my heart cannot accommodate anyone else."

……

Lu Yundi slowly opened her eyes and found herself hanging from a leafy tree with her hands behind her back. The sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves, dappling on her face, which was a bit dazzling. She tried to make her vision clear, and saw Lady Li, the wife of the Marquis of Zhenxing, standing under the tree with a group of servants, looking grim.

Li looked at Lu Yundi coldly, with a hint of mockery on her lips: "I didn't expect you to wake up so soon. I thought you would spend the night in this woods."

Lu Yundi endured the pain and tried to stay calm: "Madam Li, why are you doing this? I have no grudge against you, why are you doing this to me?"

Li's eyes widened and she said angrily, "No grudges? You almost killed my son, how can I let you go? Today I will make you wish you were dead, but you can't live!"

Lu Yundi's heart tightened, she knew that she might not be able to escape this time. But she still tried to keep herself calm and tried to find a chance to escape.

At this time, a servant couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Madam, this woman just fainted, is there any conspiracy?"

Li glared at the servant and sneered, "Conspiracy? What conspiracy can she have? She is just a weak woman. Today I will let her enjoy the pain in this forest."

After that, Li waved her hand to signal the servants to untie Lu Yundi's ropes. The servants hesitated for a moment, but still did as they were told. Lu Yundi was let down, she rubbed her numb hands, and forced a smile: "Thank you, Madam Li, I understand."

Li snorted coldly: "Understand what? Do you think I will let you go so easily?"

Lu Yundi shook his head: "I know that I can't escape this disaster today. But I want to know, what did I do wrong to make you hate me so much?"

Li's eyes widened and she gnashed her teeth as she said, "What did you do wrong? You seduced my son and made him obsessed with you, almost killing him! A woman like you should be cut into pieces!"

Lu Yundi was shocked. She didn't expect that she would be killed because of this incident. She looked at Li, with a trace of sadness in her eyes: "Madam Li, I don't want to hurt your son. What happened between him and me was all a misunderstanding."

Li sneered: "Misunderstanding? Do you think I will believe your lies? Today, I will let you enjoy the pain in this forest and let you know the consequences of betraying my Zhenxing Marquis Mansion!"

After that, Li waved her hand to signal the servants to take action. The servants hesitated, but seeing the anger on Li's face, they still surrounded him.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from deep in the woods: "What are you doing?"

The servants were stunned and looked in the direction of the sound. They saw a woman in green clothes slowly walking out with a smile on her face.

Li snorted coldly: "Who are you? How dare you meddle in the affairs of my Zhenxing Marquis Mansion?"

The woman in green smiled and said, "I am the guardian of this forest. Aren't you afraid of retribution for treating a weak woman like this?"

Li's eyes widened and he said angrily, "Retribution? Do you think you can stop me?"

The woman in green shook her head: "I can't stop you, but I can give you a chance to reconsider your actions."

Li frowned. She didn't understand what the woman was talking about.

The woman in green continued, "You can choose to let this woman go, or you can choose to continue to attack her. But you must know that every choice you make will affect your fate."

Li hesitated for a moment, and she looked at Lu Yundi, with a complex emotion in her eyes. She thought of her son, and her heart was shaken.

At this moment, Lu Yundi suddenly said, "Madam Li, I know you hate me, but I don't want to be your enemy. Please let me go, I will leave here and never appear in your sight again."

Li looked at Lu Yundi with a hint of doubt in her eyes. She didn't know whether she should believe what this woman said.

Seeing this, the woman in green sighed softly: "Madam, I believe there is still kindness in your heart. Please give her a chance, and give yourself a chance as well."

Li was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, I'll let you go. But remember, don't let me see you again."
