Ye Lanyin's mouth dropped open. Why had she never seen this before?
Lin Chang'an stood at the main gate, pounding on it forcefully.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Sung-yoon, I'm here~"
Ye Lanyin tried to stop it, but it was too late.
A short while later, the gates of the mansion were opened.
A guard came out respectfully from inside. "Madam, please come in."
Ye Lanyin nodded, as if she were being pushed forward.
The group was led inside.
Upon entering the gate, a wide bluestone path leads directly to the mansion, with neatly trimmed peonies on both sides.
Ancient trees line both sides of the corridor, their branches swaying gently.
Just then, a man came into Ye Lanyin's view.
He wore a well-tailored black brocade robe with golden python patterns embroidered on the lapel, demonstrating his supreme status and power.
Compared to his younger days, he has long since shed his naivety and immaturity.
His face had gained a more mature and handsome look, with well-defined features and a deep, piercing gaze.
Their eyes met for a moment, and Ye Lanyin quickly looked away.
"This humble woman greets the Regent."
Ye Lanyin gave a slight curtsy.
"Madam Lin, you may dispense with the formalities."
Ye Lanyin said:
"I am deeply sorry for disturbing Your Majesty."
"I thought the Regent had forgotten about this, but I never expected him to remember."
The Regent glanced at Lin Wanwan, then at Lin Chang'an.
He then said calmly, "I... won't forget what I promised."
“Chengyun has been saying he wants to play with Chang’an these past few days.”
"It just so happens that the imperial examinations are taking place these days, and I've also finished dealing with all the matters at hand."
Ye Lanyin took a deep breath and smiled as she thanked him, "Thank you, Regent."
The regent knew her purpose.
He had originally wanted to make an appointment with Ye Lanyin a long time ago, but some things had delayed it, so it was postponed until today.
The group walked into the garden.
The servants had already prepared tea in the pavilion.
Looking at the unique decorations in the garden, Ye Lanyin couldn't help but sigh.
"What a beautiful garden."
Her voice was soft, as if the wishes of her youth, deep within her heart, were being gently awakened.
