May this scumbag husband, who favored his concubine over his wife, rest in peace.

This time, Wen Yuanshu nodded: "I think I really do need it."

"I'll tell my mother later."

“No need,” Lu Chengyuan said, “I have some on hand.”

How could the General's Mansion possibly produce talent?

The secret guards are different from ordinary guards. They must stay hidden at all times, watching the slightest movement around them. If this person is from the General's Mansion, he can forget about sneaking in like this again until he officially marries Wen Yuanshu.

Wen Yuanshu didn't understand his thoughts, but seeing his insistence, she didn't say anything more.

Once Lu Chengyuan's worries were resolved, he saw that Wen Yuanshu had fallen into deep thought again.

What are you thinking about now?

Wen Yuanshu blinked: "I miss Qinglan."

When Wen Qinglan was mentioned, Lu Chengyuan's eyes darkened slightly.

After this incident, he really didn't have a good impression of Wen Qinglan.

“Why are you thinking about her?” Lu Chengyuan’s voice was slightly cold. “If it weren’t for her, you wouldn’t have gotten yourself into this state.”

Wen Yuanshu raised her hand and gently tapped his cheek twice: "Are you out of your mind? Even if those people can't use Qinglan, the capital is so big, there will always be others they can use."

Just like in this life, after the An Yuan Marquis's mansion fell, they turned their attention to Wen Qinglan.

Even if Wen Qinglan is gone, there are others.

How could someone as intelligent as Lu Chengyuan not understand such a simple truth in such a short time?

Lu Chengyuan took her hand and lowered his head to kiss her palm: "I don't care about any of that."

Just then, there was a knock on the door: "Miss, Miss Cousin is here."

Wen Yuanshu subconsciously looked at Lu Chengyuan.

Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Wen Yuanshu did not chase him away, but called out to Wen Qinglan to come in.

Wen Qinglan looked unwell, with dark circles around her eyes, clearly indicating she hadn't slept well.

“Cousin…” Wen Qinglan stood outside the screen, her head down, not daring to look at Wen Yuanshu, “I…I’m sorry to you.”

She felt truly sorry for Wen Yuanshu.

That day, she thought she was going to die, but unexpectedly, Wen Yuanshu used herself to save her.

She was unharmed, but Wen Yuanshu fell into the river and barely survived.

Wen Yuanshu treated her so well, yet she said such awful things behind her back...

Thinking of this, Wen Qinglan's feelings became even more complicated.

Wen Yuanshu also sighed softly.

That incident was really not her fault.

Traps and deceptions are everywhere in the world. Sometimes, not falling into a trap may not be because you are particularly clever, but because you haven't encountered one that is specifically designed to target you.

Wen Qinglan had a clear goal, and if someone with ulterior motives investigated, they could easily set a perfect trap for her.

She herself had fallen into such a trap, so now she didn't blame Wen Qinglan.

"Learn from your mistakes, don't overthink it," Wen Yuanshu said, changing the subject. "What are your plans for the future?"

"Intend?"

Wen Qinglan was somewhat bewildered.

She came here to marry a man, but she never expected to get involved in such a big thing.

In her eyes, the capital city had now become a dangerous place full of traps, a place that devoured people without spitting out their bones. She saw no one with good intentions, so how could she possibly have any plans?

Seeing this, Wen Yuanshu said, "Go back and get some rest. Don't think too much."

Wen Qinglan nodded.

She came all this way to see Wen Yuanshu, and seeing that Wen Yuanshu was alright, she was relieved.

Looking up, Wen Qinglan realized there was another person on the bed.

Through the screen, it was impossible to see who the person was, but judging from their figure, it was clear that they were a man.

Who could the man beside Wen Yuanshu be?

Wen Qinglan pursed her lips, then turned and left as if she hadn't seen anything.

When news of Wen Yuanshu's safe return reached Princess Anping's residence, Princess Jieyou was so enraged that she smashed a set of teacups: "That bitch! How can she be so lucky!"

He survived the fall off the cliff last time, and this time he fell into the Huai River and is still alive!
