Rebirth of the Prime Minister's Daughter: Not to be Trifled With

Shortly after Su Yunyan went inside, the door was slowly closed. Seeing this, Lu Chenyi was a little worried about Su Yunyan, fearing that she would be punished and blamed when she got home.

However, they had achieved their goal: the brother and sister had safely escorted Su Yunyan back to the Su residence.

Other matters were no longer their concern. Immediately, Lu Chenyi instructed the groom to turn around, while he himself rode the same tall horse he had come by.

He glanced in the direction of the Su family mansion gate, silently praying that Su Yunyan would be spared punishment and blame.

Lu Chenyi sighed, mounted his tall horse, and rode away, with the coachman following behind in the carriage. Before long, the brother and sister returned to the Lu residence.

Inside the Lu residence, Lu Chenyi and his sister Lu Linglong arrived at Lu Chaoqun's study.

Inside Lu Chaoqun's study, Lu Chaoqun sat upright on a stool in front of his desk. Looking at Lu Chenyi and his sister Lu Chaoqun who walked in, he smiled and said, "Chenyi, Linglong, you two siblings are back!"

"Father, yes, my brother and I escorted Miss Su Er back to the Su residence safely," the siblings said in a low voice. "We returned after watching her enter the gates of the Su residence."

After hearing this, Lu Chaoqun waved his hand, signaling Lu Chenyi and Lu Linglong to step back first.

After leaving Lu Chaoqun's study, Lu Linglong spoke first, asking, "Brother, can you tell your sister the truth?"

After hearing this, Lu Chenyi looked at Lu Linglong and asked in confusion, "Little sister, when have I ever not told you the truth? What do you mean by this?"

After hearing this, Lu Linglong paused, looked at Lu Chenyi, and continued, "Brother, nothing happened between you and Sister Yan'er, right? Linglong feels that you two are acting a little strange."

"Little sister, nothing really happened between your brother and Miss Su," Lu Chenyi said guiltily. "Nothing's wrong, little sister, don't overthink it!"

After hearing this, Lu Linglong looked at Lu Chenyi, nodded slightly, and said nothing.

Lu Chenyi escorted Lu Linglong back to Qiuxiang Courtyard. The two siblings chatted and laughed along the way, getting along very well. Before long, Lu Chenyi had brought Lu Linglong back to Qiuxiang Courtyard.

Inside Qiuxiang Courtyard, Lu Linglong personally poured Lu Chenyi a cup of tea. "Brother, please have some tea first! The pastries will be served shortly."

"Little sister, let's skip the pastries," Lu Chenyi waved his hand slightly. "I'll just have some tea. I have to go see some very important friends later."

After Lu Chenyi finished speaking, he took a small sip of tea. "Little sister, is this pre-rain Longjing tea?" Lu Linglong looked at Lu Chenyi and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Lu Chenyi looked at Lu Linglong and said with a light smile, "Sister, this tea has a refreshing taste and a long aftertaste. It is indeed a very good tea."

After hearing this, Lu Linglong glanced at Lu Chenyi and nodded with a slight smile. Then, she called Xing'er over and whispered a few words in her ear.

A moment later, Xing'er brought over a large bag and placed it in Lu Linglong's hands. Lu Linglong waved her hand, signaling Xing'er to go and attend to other matters.

Lu Linglong handed the large bag of things that Xing'er had brought over to Lu Chenyi, and said with a light smile,

"Brother, this is some pre-rain Longjing tea that your sister Linglong prepared for you. Please take it with you when you leave! There's more here after you finish it."

After hearing this, Lu Chenyi looked at Lu Linglong, took the pre-Qingming Longjing tea that Lu Linglong handed him, and said with a light smile, "Little sister, then I'll thank you in advance!"

After finishing his cup of tea, Lu Chenyi left Qiuxiang Courtyard.

A short while later, Lu Chenyi returned to his courtyard, put away the tea that Lu Linglong had given him, and then rode his horse to Yipin Tea House to meet several of his very important friends.

Meanwhile, inside the Su residence, in Su Lie's study, Su Lie sat upright on a stool in front of his desk, looking at Su Yunyan who walked in, and said coldly, "Su Yunyan, you wretched daughter, you still know to come back?"

After hearing this, Su Yunyan looked at Su Lie, who was very angry at the moment, knelt down tremblingly, and said through tears, "Father, what did I do wrong? Why do you have to say such hurtful things?"

Upon hearing this, Su Lie looked at Su Yunyan in disbelief. Was this really still his well-mannered and knowledgeable youngest daughter?

Immediately, he spoke with uncontrollable rage, "Su Yunyan, is this how you disobey your father? You stay out all night, and you still think you're right?"

After hearing this, Su Yunyan looked at Su Lie, unsure of what to say. Her Su family had always been very strict, and her father, Su Lie, was even stricter with her.

Just then, having heard the news, Liu came from Qingya Garden to Su Lie's study.

It turned out that Su Yunyan knew she couldn't escape punishment, so she went back to Fengxiang Courtyard first and instructed Cui'er to go to Qingya Garden to ask her mother, Liu, to come and help her in the emergency.

Su Lie looked at Liu Shi who had walked in and asked in confusion, "Madam, why have you come here?"

After hearing this, Liu looked at Su Lie and said softly, "My lord, I heard that Yan'er has angered you greatly, so I came here specifically to see her!"

“Madam, don’t you even ask what good things your daughter has done?” Su Lie was furious. “She dared to stay out all night and even talked back to her father so righteously.”

After hearing this, Liu looked at Su Lie and continued to persuade him, "Master, didn't Miss Lu ask Yan'er to stay and keep her company? Yan'er is still young and doesn't understand things very well. It's all my fault for not disciplining her properly."

"My lord, please allow me to take Yan'er back to Qingya Garden and discipline her properly! I will definitely discipline Yan'er well and ensure that nothing like this happens again."

After hearing this, Su Lie glanced at Liu Shi, then remained silent with a cold expression.

Seeing this, Madam Liu knelt down and cried, "Master, please have pity on me! We only have one daughter, please be merciful and spare her this time! Master, I beg you..."

Before Liu could finish speaking, Su Lie coldly interrupted her: "Liu, stop pleading for your good daughter!"

"I've already done more than enough by not holding you accountable for your poor discipline; I've given you face! Don't get too cocky and test my patience."

After hearing this, Liu looked at Su Lie and said in a low voice, "Master, is it..." Su Lie waved his hand and sternly ordered the servants to take Liu back to Qingya Garden.

Before Liu could say anything more, Su Lie gritted his teeth and said, "Liu, if you dare to plead again, don't blame me for being heartless! If you continue like this, take your good daughter and leave the Su residence immediately."

Upon hearing this, Madam Liu immediately shut her mouth and said nothing more. She glanced helplessly at the kneeling Su Yunyan, then followed the servants out of Su Lie's study.

After Liu left, Su Lie instructed his servants to take Su Yunyan to the ancestral hall so that she could kneel and beg forgiveness from the ancestors of the Su family.

After the servants received their orders, they pulled Su Yunyan to the ancestral hall, saying, "Second Miss, please come in!"

Su Yunyan glanced at the servants and said sternly, "How dare you treat me like this! I will never let you get away with this!"

After Su Yunyan finished speaking, she was roughly pushed into the ancestral hall by the servants, who then locked the door. "Second Miss, this is the master's order. Are you sure you want to disobey it?"

After the servants finished speaking, they left the ancestral hall, leaving Su Yunyan alone there.
