Although Lin Qingran felt some resistance, she still had to face these issues.

That's why Lin Qingran's expression was very calm when Gu Moxuan brought it up, and she agreed.

The next morning, Gu Moxuan left Sixiang Garden to deal with Mu Ya'an's matter.

Lin Qingran heard that there was news about Mu Ya'an, but it wasn't good news, so he needed to verify it himself.

Mu Ya'an was, after all, Gong Juncheng's beloved.

Since Gu Moxuan and Gong Juncheng have such a good relationship, Lin Qingran naturally wouldn't stop them.

It was only half an hour after Gu Moxuan left.

Lu Xueqi and Ms. Chen came to Sixiangyuan together.

Lin Qingran was inside when she saw Lu Xueqi and Ms. Chen come over together, and her expression showed some hesitation.

After all, Gu Moxuan hadn't told her that Lu Xueqi would be coming along too.

Although Lin Qingran has agreed to get back together with Gu Moxuan, she still feels very distant from Lu Xueqi.

After all, Lu Xueqi almost became Gu Moxuan's wife.

Although Lu Xueqi has voluntarily withdrawn, Lin Qingran knows very well that Lu Xueqi would never withdraw so easily.

Her gaze fell on Lu Xueqi, her expression calm.

Seeing that Lin Qingran was only looking at Lu Xueqi without saying anything, Ms. Chen smiled awkwardly and said softly.

"Qingran, where is Xiaojinjin?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran glanced at Ms. Chen and then spoke softly.

"She's painting in the backyard."

As she spoke, she glanced at the maid beside her and said in a low voice.

"Aunt Wang, could you please take Ms. Chen there?"

The maid nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Her gaze fell on Ms. Chen, and she spoke politely and respectfully.

"Ms. Chen, please come with me."

Upon hearing this, Ms. Chen nodded and immediately followed the maid to find Lin Jinjin.

Although she was somewhat dissatisfied with how Lin Qingran addressed her, she had no choice but to accept it.

After all, she had been back in Beicheng for quite some time, and even Gu Moxuan hadn't called her "Mom," so it was perfectly normal for Lin Qingran not to call her "Mom."

Ms. Chen suffered a lot when she opposed Lin Qingran before, so she is no longer willing to oppose Lin Qingran.

After all, it's obvious to anyone with eyes that Lin Qingran holds a special place in Gu Moxuan's heart.

Ms. Chen followed the maid out of the living room, leaving only Lu Xueqi and Lin Qingran behind.

Lin Qingran sat on the sofa, glanced at Lu Xueqi indifferently, and said in a calm tone.

"Mo Xuan went out early this morning to handle some matters. Miss Lu, this trip may have been in vain."

Upon hearing Lin Qingran's words, Lu Xueqi's expression changed slightly.

However, she quickly regained her composure, her gaze falling on Lin Qingran, and said softly.

"I came here with my godmother to see Jinjin."

As she spoke, she looked at Lin Qingran and said softly.

"Qingran, you've misunderstood."

Upon hearing Lu Xueqi's words, a hint of mockery flashed in Lin Qingran's eyes.

Her gaze fell on Lu Xueqi, and she said in a low voice.

"Shouldn't Miss Lu know perfectly well whether I've misunderstood or not?"

As she spoke, she glanced around the living room and said in a cold voice.

“There are only the two of us here, Miss Lu, you don’t need to pretend in front of me at all. You know my personality very well, and I know your personality very well as well.”

Lu Xueqi was taken aback when she heard the voice.

Even though Lin Qingran had said that, she still pretended not to understand what Lin Qingran was saying and said softly.

"Qingran, you've really misunderstood. If I had any other feelings for Moxuan, I could have stayed by his side."

As she spoke, she looked deeply into Lin Qingran's eyes and said in a gentle tone.

"But as you can see now, I voluntarily withdrew, just to fulfill your wishes and the children's wishes."

"So Qingran, let's pretend that everything that happened before never happened, and wipe the slate clean. I don't think you'd want to see Moxuan caught in the middle, putting him in a difficult position."

Lin Qingran listened to Lu Xueqi's words, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes.

Lu Xueqi is now much more composed than before.

Seeing the disdain in Lin Qingran's eyes, she didn't show her true emotions.

She simply looked at Lin Qingran quietly, her red lips slightly pursed.

Lin Qingran took a deep breath as she looked at Lu Xueqi's current state.

Even with all her schemes and tactics, she was completely helpless against someone like Lu Xueqi, who was like a stubborn leech.

She looked at Lu Xueqi, her expression turned cold, and then spoke in a detached voice.

"Miss Lu, please make yourself at home. I'll go to the backyard to check on the children."

After she finished speaking, she got up from the sofa and walked towards the backyard.

The fact that she could still greet Lu Xueqi at this moment was entirely due to her upbringing.

Lu Xueqi raised an eyebrow as she watched Lin Qingran walk towards the backyard.

She had stayed at Sixiang Garden for a few days before, but Gu Moxuan arranged for her to stay elsewhere.

It must be said that everything at Sixiangyuan is very well equipped.

It was carefully prepared by Gu Moxuan for Lin Qingran.

However, deep down, Lin Qingran probably longed for the life of an ordinary young couple.

But how could someone like Gu Moxuan possibly live the life of an ordinary young couple with Lin Qingran?

Lu Xueqi pushed the wheelchair into the elevator, pressed the button for the second floor, and arrived at the second floor.

When Lu Xueqi lived here, she felt that the environment was too luxurious.

Even though it's just a small three-story villa, they've installed a home elevator.

However, after living here for a while and learning about the origin of the elevator, she became even more jealous of Lin Qingran.

It turns out that the elevator here was specially installed for Lin Qingran after she was injured and had difficulty walking.

Lu Xueqi went upstairs to Gu Moxuan's bedroom. She thought back to the time when she lived here and was never allowed to enter the bedroom.

Even when Gu Moxuan felt extremely guilty towards her, he still adhered to all his principles.

She entered the master bedroom and saw that Lin Qingran's personal belongings were arranged neatly, which made her even more jealous.

Lin Qingran was the biggest obstacle between her and Gu Moxuan.

If Lin Qingran had gone abroad and never returned, Gu Moxuan's wife would already be hers.

Lu Xueqi walked to Lin Qingran's dressing table, looked at all of Lin Qingran's decorations, and then looked at herself in the mirror, who was filled with unbearable jealousy. Her hands clenched involuntarily.

Despite having warned herself to remain calm here, she couldn't suppress the jealousy deep within her heart.
