The bad husband wanted to bring his second wife into the house, so I turned around and became his st

"You're right. Su Qiao'er is very scheming and shouldn't be trusted."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Lin Wanqing, his eyes becoming a little softer.

"You've been working hard these days, managing the teahouse and taking care of the affairs of the mansion."

Lin Wanqing shook her head slightly and asked softly in the moonlight, "Has the prince found the person behind the teahouse?"

Hearing this, Lu Shengyuan curled up the corner of his mouth into a faint smile.

"There is already a clue, my dear, don't worry too much."

His words were like a spring breeze, gently blowing away the haze in Lin Wanqing's heart.

Lin Wanqing was slightly startled, and then a hint of curiosity and concern appeared in his eyes.

"Who is that person?"

There was a hint of inquiry in her words.

Lu Shengyuan patted the back of her hand gently, with just the right amount of force.

"You don't need to delve into this matter. I have my own arrangements. You just need to focus on running the teahouse and taking care of yourself. That will be the greatest help to me."

His words were gentle but unquestionable, as if everything was under his control.

Lin Wanqing knew that he knew how to act in moderation, so she stopped asking questions and just nodded slightly.

"Okay, I'll listen to the prince."

The two smiled at each other and continued walking side by side on the bluestone path.

As the night deepens, the moonlight dances.

Lu Shengyuan stopped only after he sent Lin Wanqing to the gate of the courtyard.

"It's late at night, go to bed early."

There was concern in his words.

Lin Wanqing nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on the corner of her mouth.

"Your Highness, it's late at night and the dew is heavy. Go back to your room early."

As she said that, she turned and walked into the courtyard, leaving Lu Shengyuan standing alone in the moonlight.

He looked at Lin Wanqing's receding back, a faint smile on his lips, his eyes full of pampering and tenderness.

The next morning, sunlight shone through the window lattice onto Lin Wanqing's face, giving her delicate features a light golden hue.

She slowly opened her eyes and stretched in the warm sunshine.

Pearl walked in with toiletries, a bright smile on her face.

"Miss, you are awake. The weather is particularly sunny today. Let me help you wash and change your clothes."

Lin Wanqing nodded slightly and sat up from the bed.

After washing up, she changed into a light and elegant dress and sat in front of a bronze mirror to put on her makeup.

Pei'er stood by, combing her hair and chattering about interesting things in the mansion.

As Lin Wanqing listened to her words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth from time to time, and he felt particularly happy.

After breakfast, Lin Wanqing took Pei'er to the teahouse.

Along the way, the two talked and laughed, feeling very comfortable.

As soon as she arrived at the teahouse, Lin Wanqing saw Zhao Tiezhu standing at the door looking around, as if waiting for someone.

Her heart moved slightly, and she walked forward and asked, "Tiezhu, who are you waiting for here?"

Zhao Tiezhu turned around and saw that it was Lin Wanqing who came, and his face immediately showed joy.

"Sister, you are here. I was just about to go look for you."

He paused as he spoke, as if hesitating about how to start.

Seeing this, Lin Wanqing couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"Tiezhu, what's the matter?"

Zhao Tiezhu gritted his teeth and spoke as if he had made up his mind.

"Sister, when I went to the countryside to visit my mother yesterday, I discovered something strange."

"Oh? What's so strange?"

Lin Wanqing raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of curiosity on his face.

Zhao Tiezhu glanced around, making sure no one was eavesdropping before lowering his voice and saying, "Yesterday, when I was passing through a forest, I saw a few men in black whispering about something. I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but when they mentioned the words 'teahouse' and 'poisoning', I became suspicious, so I quietly followed them to find out what was going on."

His words startled Lin Wanqing, and his expression instantly became serious.

"Did you hear what they said?"

Zhao Tiezhu shook his head slightly.

"They spoke so quietly that I couldn't hear them clearly. I just vaguely heard them saying they were going to poison some tea to make the teahouse closed down."

When Lin Wanqing heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little angry.

These people, for the sake of profit, are willing to poison others. They are really despicable!

She took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know who they are?"

Zhao Tiezhu shook his head again.

"They were all masked, so I couldn't see their faces clearly, but judging by their accents, they seemed to be from other places."

Lin Wanqing frowned, feeling a little annoyed.

Who are these people?

Why target her teahouse?

She pondered for a moment and then instructed Zhao Tiezhu, "This matter is of great importance. You must not make it public, so as not to cause panic."

Zhao Tiezhu nodded solemnly.

"Don't worry, sister. I know the seriousness of the matter."

Lin Wanqing nodded slightly, already having a plan in mind.

Since these people dared to poison her teahouse, they must be prepared to pay the price!

She wanted to see who dared to offend Tai Sui!

After returning to the teahouse, Lin Wanqing told Lu Shengyuan about this.

After hearing this, his brows furrowed and his face was full of frost.

"How dare these people be so rampant! I will definitely find them and tear them into pieces!"

There was a strong murderous intent in Lu Shengyuan's words, as if he wanted to cut those men in black into pieces.

Lin Wanqing gently held his hand and said softly, "Prince, calm down. We need to make a long-term plan at this time and don't alert the enemy."

Her voice was as sweet as a clear spring, instantly calming the anger in Lu Shengyuan's heart.

He turned to look at her, his eyes full of doting and tenderness.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Lu Shengyuan took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "I will secretly send people to investigate this matter and will definitely catch these men in black in one fell swoop!"

Lin Wanqing nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on the corner of her mouth.

"I believe the prince will be able to handle this matter."

The two smiled at each other, and their hearts became closer.

In the following days, Lu Shengyuan secretly sent people to investigate the whereabouts of the man in black, while Lin Wanqing continued to run the teahouse business as usual.

But she was more cautious than before, fearing that she would give the men in black an opportunity to take advantage of her.

The days passed one by one, and in the blink of an eye it was the end of the month.

That evening, Lin Wanqing was settling accounts in the teahouse when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.

She frowned slightly and walked out of the counter to check the situation.

I saw several men in black standing at the door of the teahouse, talking to the waiter who was welcoming customers.

Lin Wanqing felt something in his heart and walked over quietly.

As soon as I reached the door, I heard one of the men in black say, "Your teahouse is doing pretty good business, but it's a pity that you're going to close tomorrow."

The waiter's face changed when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "Why do you say that, gentlemen? Our teahouse has always been run with integrity and has never offended anyone. Why are we closing?"

The man in black sneered and was about to speak when he noticed Lin Wanqing standing beside him.

His eyes lit up and a lustful look appeared on his face.
