After transmigrating into the body of a stepmother, I led the villains in a rebellion.

Lu Shiyuan's expression changed again; Mo Yunwei had mentioned exactly what he was most worried about.

Lin Shu is only willing to be close to him now because she has lost her memory. What if she regains her memory?

Does the affection for them still exist?

Seeing that she had hit Lu Shiyuan's sweet spot, Mo Yunwei continued confidently, "As far as I know, she cares a lot about her brother. Once she regains her memories, the first person she'll kill will be you."

"Even if she falls in love with you and doesn't want to kill you, won't she feel guilty and remorseful for killing your family, or even leave you?"

“Lu Shiyuan, I want to see you suffer unbearable pain, like you’re living a life worse than death. Don’t you think you’ve always been the one winning against me? Let’s see how you’re going to beat me in this.”

Lu Shiyuan learned the answer he had been seeking for so long from Mo Yunwei, but he never expected that the answer would cause him such unbearable pain.

Standing outside the prison, his shadow was elongated by the moonlight, filled with loneliness and desolation.

Looking back on every moment spent with Lin Shu, each scene is as precious as a treasure.

But Mo Yunwei's words were like a deadly weapon that killed without drawing blood; every word was wounding, leaving him momentarily at a loss as to how to face Lin Shu.

He killed Lin Shu's elder brother, and Lin Shu wiped out 130 people from his manor. Although they were evened out, an insurmountable chasm had formed between them.

In the courtyard;

Lin Shu opened the door and went out as soon as Lu Shiyuan left the courtyard.

She knew that Lu Shiyuan wanted to take Ajin to sleep with him. With Lu Shiyuan's intelligence, how could he not guess the truth? She was just unsure if Lu Shiyuan could accept the truth.

No one knows what kind of fate led her to transmigrate into the body of Lu Shiyuan's enemy.

In the face of hatred, love is often insignificant.

Lin Shu waited for Lu Shiyuan in the courtyard all night, but instead of Lu Shiyuan, she was greeted by her father-in-law's annoyingly smiling face.

"Father-in-law, it's you again?"

The eunuch forced a smile; he didn't want it to be him either, but he couldn't disobey the emperor's command.

"Miss Lin left without saying goodbye, and the Duke was so worried that he fell ill and was bedridden. Even Miss Su rushed to the Duke's mansion to take care of her. The Emperor was worried about Miss Lin, so he specially sent his servant to bring Miss Lin back to Jiang Kingdom."

Threaten her?

They actually took the Duke and Su Qing hostage; they're courting death.

Lin Shusheng hated threats more than anything else. Since Li Che was so reckless in coming at her, she didn't mind fighting him.

"In that case, I should thank Your Majesty. Well then, I am willing to return to Jiang Kingdom with Eunuch De, but could you please give me two days to entrust my son to his father's care?"

I originally thought Lin Shu would be stubborn, but I didn't expect him to become so easy to talk to all of a sudden.

The father-in-law was naturally overjoyed. "Of course, Miss Lin, how about we set off in three days?"

“Okay,” Lin Shu said.

Eunuch De immediately turned and left the courtyard with his men, but before they left, Lin Shu stopped them again, "Wait, Eunuch De, I'm very curious, how did you know I was here?"

As for Lin Shu, the person whom the Emperor cherished so dearly, Eunuch De naturally dared not hide anything from her. "Miss Lin, it was a woman named Qinghe who told us this."

Qinghe?

Lin Shu never dreamed that it would be Qing He.

Qinghe betrayed her, probably out of love turned to hate, and blamed all the resentment for not being able to have Lu Shiyuan on her.

Thinking of Lu Shiyuan and the hatred between the two, Lin Shu felt a headache coming on.

She shook her head and turned to walk towards Lu Zijing's room.

As soon as Lin Shugang reached the door of Lu Zijing's room, the door was opened from the inside.

Lu Zijing rubbed her sleepy eyes, looking blankly at Lin Shu standing at the door of her room. "Mother, where is Father? Why hasn't he come back yet?"

Lin Shu reached out and rubbed Lu Zijin's head. "Ajin, you must miss your father and brother, right? Mother will take you to see them now." It just so happens that she hasn't seen Aheng in a long time, and she wonders what that boy is like after he becomes emperor.

The thought of that youthful face filled with feigned seriousness made her smile.

After giving Lu Zijin a quick wash, Lin Shu led her away from the courtyard and headed towards the Protector General's Mansion.

When Lu Zijing heard that Lin Shu was going to take him home, she excitedly pulled Lin Shu aside and asked him all sorts of questions along the way.

Looking at Lu Zijing's innocent face, Lin Shu felt a pang of reluctance.

But she couldn't just ignore Su Qing and the Duke.

In her modern life, she had no friends or family. Now that she finally has all of this, she can't bear to give it up.

The two arrived at the general's mansion at noon.

Sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground.

Lin Shu originally thought he would have to put in a lot of effort, but to his surprise, when they heard Lu Zijin's name, they affectionately called them Madam and Young Master.

They even took them directly into the general's mansion and to Lu Shiyuan's courtyard.

Lin Shu felt uneasy about everything before him. For some reason, everything was going too smoothly, so smoothly that it seemed as if it had been planned for a long time.

Lin Shu led Lu Zijin to Lu Shiyuan's Study Garden, guided by a servant, only to find Lu Shiyuan's door wide open.

"The general is waiting for you inside, Madam. I will escort you here."

Lin Shu nodded and pulled Lu Zijing toward the room.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Lu Shiyuan and Qinghe lying together on the bed.

This scene pierced Lin Shu's eyes and made her heart ache.

She used to think she only had feelings for Lu Shiyuan, but now the heartache she felt made her realize that her feelings for Lu Shiyuan were more than just a fleeting thought.

Lu Shiyuan, is this the choice you made after you learned the truth?

When Qinghe saw Lin Shu, her eyes were filled with provocation and smugness.

She lazily got out of bed. "Madam, you're back."

"You wicked woman, how dare you be in my father's bed!" Lu Zijing's voice, filled with childish anger, echoed in the room.

Qinghe smiled gently, not caring at all about Lu Zijin's anger, "Ajin, your father is drunk, so Aunt Qing is here to take care of him. Don't misunderstand."

"How could you take care of Father to his bedside? You're clearly lying..."

Lu Zijing was about to say something when Lin Shu grabbed her arm. "Ajin, be quiet, it's too noisy."

“Taking care of someone means taking care of them in bed, which is normal. I just didn’t expect General Qinghe to be so spineless, only daring to climb into Lu Shiyuan’s bed when he’s drunk.”

"You..." Lin Shu's calm expression infuriated Qinghua, who was also embarrassed.

The thought that Lu Shiyuan was so drunk and still wouldn't touch her fueled a fire within her.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw Lu Shiyuan, who had been sleeping, open his eyes and wake up with a gloomy expression.

When she met Lin Shu's indifferent face, a hint of pain flashed in her eyes, but her voice remained calm as she asked, "Shu Shu, what brings you here?"
