Zhou had never experienced from Nan Chuzheng that there was anyone who could be greater than her.

After all, in the two years since Nan Chuzheng returned to the Chu family, she has always put the Chu family first in everything.

Among all these, Zhou was the most important.

She was particularly concerned about Zhou's joys and sorrows, and was very filial and considerate.

Although Zhou was disgusted with Nan Chuzheng most of the time.

But every time Zhou needed something, Nan Chuzheng would come forward in time to listen to her instructions.

No matter what Nan Chuzheng was doing at that time.

Regardless of whether Nan Chuzheng feels comfortable or not.

Zhou was driven away by the servants of the Nan family with long sticks.

No matter how unwilling she was, she had no choice but to leave from Nan Chuzheng's doorstep.

"How could this be?"

Zhou fell to the ground. It was already late at night.

She didn't want to go back to Marquis Zhaoyong's Mansion, nor could she go to the Nan family to be with her own daughter.

At this moment, Zhou felt that she had been betrayed and abandoned by the whole world.

That's why she worked so hard for so many years, for the Zhaoyong Marquis Mansion and the Zhou family.

But in the end he ended up being deserted by everyone?

A drizzle fell.

Zhou, who was sitting on the ground, cried out in grief.

At the Nan family's house, Nan Chuzheng walked under the eaves and looked at Nan Chenrao, who had long hair and wore a wide-sleeved shirt.

There was a hint of anxiety in his handsome eyes.

Seeing Nan Chuzheng coming over, Nan Chenrao reached out and held her in his arms.

The restless heart found a moment of peace, and Nan Chenrao inserted his fingers into Nan Chuzheng's hair.

"It's so late, why are you wasting your time on a woman like this?"

There was a hint of accusation in his tone.

But it's not strong, it just sounds like being wronged.

Nan Chuzheng couldn't help but comfort Nan Chenrao.

"It's her fault. She shouldn't have disturbed our master's rest."

"Master, Zheng'er will go to sleep with you."

When Nan Chenrao was young, he suffered from insomnia for a long time because of the continuous training of killing and avoiding being killed.

During that period, any slight disturbance would keep Nan Chenrao awake all night.

If he doesn't sleep well, his emotions will be out of control.

Although the Nan family no longer allowed him to undergo such rigorous training, the sequelae left over from his youth continued to affect Nan Chenrao throughout his life.

The shadows of the trees were mottled in the moonlight.

Nan Chuzheng held Nan Chenrao's hand and walked through the long corridor.

After Zhou was driven away, the Nan family fell into silence.

Although Nan Chuzheng knew that the servants of the Nan family were hiding in every corner of this house.

They concealed their presence very well.

So much so that people who just entered the Nan family would think that there was no one else in the house besides Nan Chuzheng and Nan Chenrao.

There is no one else.

When she reached the door of Nan Chuzheng's room, her body suddenly felt lighter and Nan Chenrao lifted her up and carried her sideways.

Nan Chuzheng's face turned red.

She knew that the Nan family had many servants who were watching secretly.

"No, Patriarch."

"Put me down first. I can walk by myself."

But Nan Chenrao ignored her and just carried her into the door.

The double-leaf door closed behind him, blocking out all sight.

When Nan Chuzheng woke up the next morning, she learned that Zhou had been caught in the rain all night.

In the end, she was brought back by people sent by Lord Chu.

"Miss, do you want me to arrange for someone to go into the Chu family and investigate?"

Nan Dasi stood beside Nan Chuzheng.

She was sitting in the dining room having dinner.

Yesterday, she and Nanchen Rao went back to their room and went to sleep. When she woke up early this morning, Nanchen Rao had already gone to Yama Division to report in.

No servant from the Nan family woke Nan Chuzheng up. It was obvious that Nan Chenrao had instructed Nan Da to let Nan Chuzheng sleep until she woke up naturally.

At this moment, Nan Chuzheng's mind was still a little fuzzy because she had slept too much and too well.

She was wearing loose clothes, with her long hair loose, holding the porcelain bowl in her white hands, drinking porridge in small sips while making a "hmm" sound.

"The Chu family won't be so easily dismissed."

“It’s good to know yourself and your enemy.”

There is no rush to plant spies.

It would not be so easy for the spies who enter now to find out the inside story of the Chu family.

After all, Nan Chenrao had never let the Nan family's spies go to the Chu family because he was afraid that Nan Chuzheng would be unhappy.

In order to slowly spy on the Chu family, a lot of things need to be prepared in advance.

The identity of the spy must be flawless.

If she starts planning now, Nan Chuzheng will only be able to obtain effective information about the Chu family in the next few years.

"Miss, someone from the Chu family came and said that Zhou was caught in the rain last night and is seriously ill. They want you to go back and see her."

The concierge stood outside the dining room with his head bowed.

Nan Chuzheng finished her breakfast leisurely, then went back to her room to dress casually, put on the most low-key and least luxurious dress in her wardrobe, and walked towards the Chu family.

It was true that Zhou was seriously ill. She was so sad last night that when Lord Chu sent someone to find her, she had already developed a high fever.

The doctor came in and out of Zhou's yard. After all, she was the marquis's wife. If Marquis Chu didn't care about her, he would be criticized.

Seeing Nan Chuzheng being brought into Zhou's yard by servants, Lord Chu and Chu Shiqing, who were standing under the eaves, immediately turned around.

Chu Shiqing frowned and blamed Nan Chuzheng.

"You're willing to come back because your mother is seriously ill?"

Nan Chuzheng has become too unfamiliar to Chu Shiqing during this period of time.

He felt angry and resentful towards Nan Chuzheng.

I couldn't help but sing a high-pitched tune towards Nan Chuzheng.

"It is said that my mother got sick just to find you. Are you still worthy of being a child?"

Nan Chuzheng glanced at the silent Lord Chu, with a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"Why is it because of me that you got sick?"

"Isn't it because she knew Chu Jingyue's true identity and couldn't bear the shock that she became ill?"

Chu Shiqing was furious.

"Isn't it because you told my mother about Jingyue's true identity? If you hadn't told me, wouldn't all this have happened?"

Nan Chuzheng put away the smile on her face.

"If I don't tell her, won't she find out through other channels?"

"Zhou Mingzhu is about to return to the imperial capital. Given her methods and scheming, will she refuse to recognize Chu Jingyue?"

In the previous life, everyone knew Chu Jingyue’s true identity.

All of this was hidden from Zhou.

Later, Zhou Mingzhu returned to the imperial capital and exposed the relationship himself.

Zhou was struck by lightning.

It was Nan Chuzheng who stayed by Zhou's side with great patience, advising her, coaxing her, and trying all kinds of ways to make her happy.

So don't doubt it, Zhou Mingzhu is really not an easy person to deal with.

Chu Shiqing became even angrier. He pointed at the tip of Nan Chuzheng's nose.

"You are judging others by your own standards."

"Only a scheming and vicious woman like you would use such a mind to speculate about my second aunt."

Nan Chuzheng smiled and didn't bother to argue with Chu Shiqing at all.

Instead, Chu Shiqing wanted to curse again, but Lord Chu reached out to stop him.

He condescendingly ordered Nan Chuzheng,

"Are you living in the Nan family now?"

"I have never met the Nan family who adopted you. Please ask them to come and see me."

Nan Chuzheng looked at Lord Chu with a very strange look.

"You can't just meet the Nan family whenever you want."

At this time, Lord Chu had a bit of courage that was ignorant of the immensity of the world.
