Chapter 90.2 - Very fishy
She stood outside of the teahouse, watching the direction that the two people left in, her mouth curling into a mocking smile.
Following her strange smile, a woman walk out from behind her.
It was the Li Xiangluan who had been standing in the alleyway not too long ago.
“Eldest miss, that woman actually went back. She definitely heard eldest miss’ words, she spat out that blood so it looks like she won’t be alive for long. In the future, there won’t be anyone to fight with eldest miss for your husband.”
Li Xiangluan’s charming face flashed mocking, “Just her? As if she could!”
Hmph!
She turned around, slowly walking towards the Mu residence.
The person that she liked, no matter who it was, couldn’t be s.n.a.t.c.hed away!
Lou Qingwu sat on another carriage, her mind flashing back to the blood that Su Sheng spat out with Mu Yunqing and Li Xiangluan’s voices on repeat in her ears.
The fishiness that she felt just grew clearer and clearer, making her heart eel blocked up, she still felt like something was off.
Lan Bai saw her uncomfortableness, lowered her voice, “Master, what happened? Why did you and that Miss Wan’er suddenly rush out?”
Lou Qingwu heard her voice, turning around but didn’t answer, instead, asking, “Lan Bai, do you think a person could change a lot from their outer appearance?”
“Ah, what does master mean?”
“For example, if he really hated someone, hated them to the point where they wished for them to die, would he still wear a rosary bead bracelet in memory of them for years?”
Lan Bai was dumbstruck, “Not unless he was crazy.”
Otherwise, why would someone wear the property of someone they hated?
If it was her, she’d want to throw it away as far as possible.
Lou Qingwu’s brows furrowed, yes, that’s what she found was strange.
Mu Yunqing was so anxious about Su Sheng’s bracelet, but why would he then say something like that?
But the person that she saw was clearly Mu Yunqing.
She’d seen him so many times, the face was exactly the same so how could she have seen wrongly?
Wait?!
Exactly the same?
Lou Qingwu’s face suddenly changed, she sat up and shouted to the driver, “Quickly return to the residence!”
The driver outside heard and immediately lashed his whip.
In a short while, the horse carriage stopped outside of the Lou residence.
But outside of the residence, was another carriage.
Lou Qingwu jumped out of the carriage, bringing Lan Bai with her to the residence.
There, she saw Lou Lianxin who was walking out.
The two people b.u.mped into each other and froze.
Lou Lianxin’s face was shockingly pale and when she saw lou Qingwu, her pupils suddenly shrunk.
Her expression was horrifying, but in the next second, she forced herself to swallow back the anger that was rising up.
Unexpectedly, she gave Lou Qingwu a deep courtesy, respectfully greeting her, “Big sister.”
Lou Qingwu raised a brow, her eyes sweeping at her.
If she didn’t see her nails digging into her palms, she might’ve actually thought that Lou Lianxin had changed her mind.
But if she wanted to play, then she’d accompany her.
“It’s little sister, ah, you’re going ….”
Lou Lianxin lowered her eyes, only revealing a pale white neck, “Little sister isn’t feeling too well these few days so I’m going to go to a Buddhist temple for a few days.”
“That way, ah, then little sister, have a safe trip.”
If it was like usual, she’d definitely say a few more words.
But today was different, she was too anxious to find Thousand Face to answer her questions so she hurried and grabbed Lan Bai to continue forward.
Lou Lianxin turned her head around, silently watching her back as she left.
Her hands to her sides gripped themelves into fists as her maidservant to her side reminded her, “Second miss, madam told me to remember one word, restraint.”
Lou Lianxin glared at her hatefully, sucking in a deep breath before lifting up her head and closing her eyes.
Lou Qingwu, wait for me to come back, you, wait for me!
