If Feng Zhao is there, then Meng Yu is also there!

Gan Cai'er felt a chill run down her spine. What bad luck she had to run into him again at the Mei residence!

When she saw the carriage of the Duke of Wei's mansion before, she never thought that Meng Yu would be there, because Meng Yu almost never rides in a carriage; he always rides a horse.

Feng Zhao stood ramrod straight with his head down, his eyes fixed on his nose, his nose on his mouth, and his mouth on his heart, his gaze never wandering.

Liu Mu stood casually, raised his chin at Feng Zhao, and gave a light sneer.

"Tsk, you dare to lay a hand on the servants of the Mei family? How many of them did you take down?"

Feng Zhao glanced at him only, then stood silently without saying a word.

"I say, if you dare to cause trouble at the Mei residence, aren't you really afraid that the young master will skin you alive?"

"It's easy for you to say that when you're not in my shoes! If you were me, what would you do?" Feng Zhao rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.

"The young master is going to blame me, but this was ordered by the third young master. I'm in the hands of both, what can I do?"

Liu Mu thought for a moment, then cast a sympathetic look at Feng Zhao.

"Hey, Xiao Zhaozi, what kind of enchanting woman is that Lan family lady? What kind of supernatural powers does she possess that have captivated the Third Young Master so completely?" Liu Mu whispered.

"How would I know? The young master is completely obsessed; there's no way to persuade him," Feng Zhao sighed.

"If you were to ask what kind of special abilities the young lady of the Lan family possesses, it would probably be that she is beautiful, but also has a fiery temper and a short temper?"

"Tsk, tsk, I didn't expect the Third Young Master to have such a taste." Liu Mu clicked his tongue in surprise and shook his head.

Gan Cai'er somewhat regretted coming with Mei Wanqing. She hid herself near the moon gate, hoping Feng Zhao hadn't seen her. But she also had a vague feeling that Meng Yu actually knew she was here. Otherwise, their journey wouldn't have been so smooth.

While Gan Cai'er was struggling with her dilemma, the door to Mei Qingru's study opened again, and Mei Wanqing led Huan'er out.

Gan Cai'er and Zhu Xiaoxiao did not follow them into the courtyard of the academy, after all, they were women and not members of the Mei family. They waited for Mei Wanqing outside the courtyard.

When Mei Wanqing came out of the courtyard and walked up to the two of them, Gan Cai'er was startled. Mei Wanqing's eyes were red, as if she had been crying.

"What happened?" Gan Cai'er asked.

Mei Wanqing silently shook her head, not saying a word, and just kept walking forward.

"What happened? Is Mei Xiangsheng angry?" Gan Cai'er asked, pulling Huan'er along.

"No," Huan'er replied. "Mei Xiang is quite nice to Miss Mei."

"When he heard that it was Miss Mei who had come to bring him dessert, he immediately let her into the house. Miss Mei happily went in, but who knew there were other guests in the study. Miss Mei was startled, tripped and fell, and that's how it happened."

Gan Cai'er rubbed her forehead, utterly speechless. She could understand Mei Wanqing's nervousness and helplessness.

She quickened her pace, caught up with Mei Wanqing, and then took her hand, saying, "You fell. Did Prime Minister Mei scold you?"

Mei Wanqing shook her head and whispered, "No, Father even asked me if it hurt."

Gan Cai'er was puzzled: "Then why are you crying? Did you fall and hurt yourself a lot?"

Mei Wanqing shook her head again: "No, it didn't hurt from the fall. I was just scared, that person... that person was so scary..."

As she spoke, her voice trembled slightly and choked with sobs.

Gan Cai'er was stunned! Could it be?!

Although Meng Yan exuded a strong murderous aura, he had broad features and a very handsome appearance. He didn't look like a fierce and evil person at all, so how could he have scared someone to tears?

As for Meng Yu, that's even more impossible.

Mei Wanqing kept her head down and jogged back to Luoxia Courtyard.

After everyone was seated, they saw the maids who had been knocked out by Xiao Hong slowly waking up, while Xiao Hong sat to the side.

Gan Cai'er gave Xiao Hong a thumbs up and praised her, "Xiao Hong, you're really amazing. You've only been learning kung fu for a few days, and you already have such precise control over your strength."

"Miss, you flatter me."

Gan Cai'er noticed something was off about the tone and took a closer look, only to see that Xiao Hong had a sour expression on her face and wasn't smiling at all.

"What's wrong with you now? Who upset you?"

Xiao Hong pouted and said angrily, "Where would I get such precise strength! It was all done by that black-hearted lackey."

Gan Cai'er's heart skipped a beat. Now, she no longer needed to worry. Meng Yu really did know she was there.

However, it's good that he's there; it increases my chances of winning.
