After returning to his dormitory from the Lu family home, Li Peiyu sat in the classroom, absent-minded.

Who is Lu Yuzhi? Why did you lose your mind and provoke him? You thought he was a virtuous and noble bachelor, but you never expected that he had a lot of women around him. When one stepped down, thousands rushed to take his place.

Today it's Su Wenqing, tomorrow who knows who it will be.

She would never stoop to competing with three thousand beauties in the imperial harem for the emperor's favor.

Lu Yuzhi, so shameless, even when someone else is asleep, it doesn't stop him from teasing her; he's really playing hard to get.

Whose fault is it all? She seduced him, and wasn't she doing it to get revenge on Gu Yan? She started off with a casual attitude, but she ended up falling head over heels for him, wanting his money and his affections too—it's wishful thinking.

She admitted she couldn't afford to play this game anymore. She already couldn't stand seeing Lu Yuzhi enjoying himself with someone else. If this dragged on for another three or five months, Lu Yuzhi would be tired of her, but she wouldn't be able to let go, and that would look very bad.

Fortunately, he'd slept with her, made money, and achieved both wealth and beauty. So, he might as well quit while he was ahead and retire gracefully.

Goodbye, Uncle Lu.

I won't put it in front of you anymore.

Li Peiyu made a decision in her heart and resolutely raised her hand, "Teacher, I need to go to the toilet."

After receiving the teacher's permission, she quickly walked out of the classroom.

As soon as she left the classroom, Li Peiyu dashed to her dormitory like an arrow, quickly opened her locker, and took out a handbag.

The handbag contained the pillow, pajamas, and underwear that she had secretly taken from Lu Yu's house.

Before that, she would almost always sleep with these things in her arms. But ever since Lu Yuzhi kicked them away, she put them away in the closet.

These things are going to rot now, so what's the point of keeping them?

So, Li Peiyu took the tote bag and deliberately chose to return the items during the day when Lu Yuzhi was not at home.

Li Peiyu hurriedly returned to Lu Yuzhi's house and rang the doorbell.

A moment later, Aunt Li came out. She opened the door and, while inviting Li Peiyu in, asked with a puzzled look, "Did you leave something behind, young lady?"

Li Peiyu stood at the door without going in, shook her head, and smiled, saying, "No, Aunt Li, I'm here to return something." As she spoke, she handed the bag to Aunt Li.

Aunt Li took the handbag, about to speak but then held back. As a servant in the master's household, there were some things she shouldn't say. Besides, everyone has their own destiny and fate, and whether she spoke or not wasn't particularly important.

“Young lady, if you ever run into trouble in the future, you can come to me. Although I’m just a maid, I’m not entirely useless. Perhaps one day I can help you.” Aunt Li said this simply because Li Peiyu had once voluntarily helped her wash the dishes and didn’t treat her merely as a maid.

Hearing Aunt Li's words, Li Peiyu felt a surge of emotion and replied earnestly, "Okay, Aunt Li, if that day ever comes, I will definitely come to ask you for help."

Within the Lu family, there exists a special figure: Aunt Li. Lu Yuzhi, Gu Yan, and indeed everyone in the Lu family treat her with utmost respect and deference, daring not to utter a single disrespectful word.

Aunt Li, on the surface, is a maid, but in reality, she is like a princess.

The reasons for this are a long story.

Aunt Li's mother was Lu Yu's grandfather's first love.

Back then, in order to obtain the capital for starting a business, Lu Yuzhi's grandfather, under the pressure of reality, had no choice but to abandon Aunt Li's mother and instead marry Lu Yuzhi's grandmother, who had a generous dowry. At that time, Aunt Li's mother was already pregnant.

Heartbroken, Aunt Li's mother left for another place, gave birth to Aunt Li, and never married.

As time went by, Lu Yuzhi's grandmother fell seriously ill and passed away. After experiencing the vicissitudes of life, Lu Yuzhi's grandfather remembered his first love and hoped to rekindle their romance.

When they found her, Aunt Li's mother had already passed away. Grandpa Lu wanted Aunt Li to be recognized as part of the family.

However, how could Aunt Li possibly agree to that?

The suffering and humiliation she endured over the years, after so cruelly abandoning her mother, cannot be easily erased.

She resolutely refused to acknowledge Old Master Lu as her father, and even insisted on leaving S City.

Left with no other choice, Old Master Lu declared that whoever could keep Aunt Li would take over the vast Lu family business.

Lu Yuzhi's half-brother, Lu Antai, tried every possible means to keep Aunt Li. He tried everything, both soft and hard tactics, but Aunt Li remained unmoved and determined to leave.

At the crucial moment, Lu Yuzhi stepped in. At that time, Lu Yuzhi had just graduated from university and, together with the equally young Gu Yan, went to find Aunt Li.

Lu Yuzhi took a different approach and sincerely hired Aunt Li as a nanny to take care of Gu Yan.

Poor Lu Yuzhi grew up away from home with his mother, who neglected him. His life was even more pitiful than Aunt Li's. He never experienced the warmth of a family or the love of his parents, and struggled alone to grow up in this cold world.

Gu Yan was also a pitiful child, lacking the love of his parents. This pitiful father and son duo would evoke pity in anyone who saw them.

Perhaps moved by Lu Yuzhi's sincerity, or perhaps out of pity for the two orphaned children who shared a similar fate, Aunt Li finally agreed.

Lu Yuzhi successfully helped Old Master Lu keep Aunt Li with him. This greatly increased her importance in Old Master Lu's heart.

Later, under Lu Yuzhi's scheme, Lu Antai and his mother's various illegal acts were gradually exposed, and Old Master Lu became increasingly disappointed in them.
