Su Yun suppressed the grievance and resentment in his heart, and after returning home, he tried hard to adjust his mood.

She knew very well that she couldn't let those bad things linger in her mind and disrupt her life, so she immersed herself in books and writing for the whole afternoon, quietly reading and practicing calligraphy, trying to let her troubled mood gradually calm down in this quiet place.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, night arrived as expected, like a black curtain, slowly covering the whole world.

As usual, Su Yun finished washing up and lazily lay down on the bed. He picked up a book and started reading in the dim candlelight.

At this moment, a slight "creak" sound suddenly came from the silent room, and the door was slowly pushed open.

Su Yun subconsciously looked up, and when he saw it, his eyes widened, and he almost dropped the book in his hand, and exclaimed, "Why are you here?"

The person who came was none other than the masked Lu Yuankai.

Lu Yuankai looked at Su Yun's frightened expression, his eyes full of pity. He gently closed the door and walked slowly towards the bed, saying softly, "Yun'er, after we parted, I have been thinking about you. I miss you so much that I want to come and accompany you. I can't bear to see you alone in the empty room."

Su Yun quickly shrank to the corner of the bed, looked at him warily, and said in a trembling voice: "Hurry up and leave, or I will call for help, and then you won't be able to leave."

Lu Yuankai, however, seemed to have not heard her threat and continued to walk towards her slowly, with a faint smile on his face. "Yun'er, go ahead and shout. Even if you scream your throat out, no one will come."

Su Yun became increasingly panicked. She raised her voice and shouted, "Someone, someone, please!"

Lu Yuankai walked to the bed and sat down. He sighed helplessly, looked at Su Yun and said, "Yun'er, don't waste your energy. They are all unconscious. Now, everything here is under my control. Just be good and don't make these useless struggles."

Su Yun's face turned pale. She clutched the quilt tightly, and her voice was full of questioning: "What do you want to do? How could you attack my people?"

Lu Yuankai stretched out his hand, as if to comfort her, but seeing Su Yun's resistance, he silently withdrew his hand and said softly: "Yun'er, don't be afraid. They are all well in their rooms. They are just asleep temporarily. Don't worry. I have no ill will towards you or them. I came here today just to accompany you. I have no other intentions. Just believe me this time, okay?"

Su Yun looked at him, his eyes full of suspicion and vigilance. After hesitating for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "You'd better keep your word. Also, how did you manage to make them all faint? If anything happens to them, I will not let you go."

Lu Yuankai patiently explained, "Yun'er, I just used some special aphrodisiac incense. The effect is very mild. They will wake up naturally in a short time. There will be no harm. How can I bear to hurt the people around you because of my selfishness? Just put your heart at ease."

Su Yun snorted coldly and ignored him. She picked up the book, turned her back to him and continued reading. However, her slightly trembling fingers revealed her inner nervousness and anxiety.

Seeing this, Lu Yuankai said nothing more. He just sat quietly beside the bed, his eyes gently falling on Su Yun. He really just accompanied her silently. For a moment, the room fell into silence. Only the gentle sound of turning pages seemed to be telling the special atmosphere of this night...
