Feiyun Garden is brightly lit.
Mother Chen and Xichun looked at the newcomer in astonishment, as if they could stuff an egg into his mouth.
Xu Wanyan didn't say a word and was carried into the inner room by Xiao Jingming.
After a long while, Mother Chen came in tremblingly, "Little Miss, I'll prepare some hot water for you."
Xu Wanyan nodded, "Okay, prepare some for His Royal Highness Prince Chen and Xiao Mengzi as well."
Mother Chen was horrified and immediately fell to her knees, "Prince Chen, Your Highness Prince Chen..."
Xiao Jingming waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and prepare some hot water and cold medicine for your young lady. She's been out in the rain for so long, I'm afraid she might catch a cold."
"Yes, I will prepare it right away."
After saying that, Mother Chen ran out stumbling and crawling.
Soon, Xichun came in with clean clothes.
"Miss, prepare to take medicine later."
When Xu Wanyan heard that she needed to take medicine, she couldn't help laughing when she thought of the last time Xiao Jingming visited her at night.
"Can you still laugh?"
The same sentence again.
Xu Wanyan smiled and said, "Your Highness, do you still remember the first time you came here? That time, I also caught a cold."
Xiao Jingming's face flushed, and he stammered, "That time, I was rude."
Xu Wanyan's eyes sparkled, "After that day, Qiao Yun would watch over me every night, fearing that I would sleep on the floor again."
"She is the only one in this family who treats you well."
Xu Wanyan nodded and said, "She went to find someone to save me, but she hasn't come back for so long."
Xiao Jingming saw the unconcealable worry in her eyes. He glanced at Xiao Mengzi, and Xiao Mengzi hurried out.
"What does that mean to Yu Qilin?"
After a long time, Xiao Jingming finally spoke.
Xu Wanyan's pupils shrank, he still knew.
"That, that's my mother's dowry. I... want to take it back."
Xiao Jingming narrowed his eyes slightly, showing complete disbelief, "Really?"
Xu Wanyan nodded vigorously, "Really."
"Then why didn't you take out the others, but only took this one? It's priceless, or... does it have any special meaning?"
Xu Wanyan bit her lower lip tightly. Why was this person asking so many questions?
Then, Xu Wanyan felt her whole body suddenly become hot and she suddenly lost all energy.
Xiao Jingming also noticed that her face was flushed and her eyes were dull.
The big hand touched her forehead, which was a little hot.
"You have a fever. I'll go get some medicine."
Xu Wanyan nodded dazedly, her eyelids too heavy to open.
In a daze, she drank the medicine and felt that there was always someone around her.
The next morning, Xu Wanyan opened her eyes, and her vision became much clearer.
"Miss, you are awake."
The person who came was Xichun.
"Where's Qiao Yun?"
"Miss, Qiao Yun also had a fever after returning last night and is still asleep."
Xu Wanyan nodded and sat up.
"Miss, you can't go out today. You need to lie down well."
Xu Wanyan nodded. Although her fever had subsided, she still didn't have much energy.
"By the way, where is the prince?"
Xichun whispered, "The prince left around three o'clock in the morning, and by then your fever had already subsided."
Xu Wanyan nodded. She really owed him a lot.
"Miss, have some porridge."
Xu Wanyan nodded.
After breakfast, Xu Wanyan drank the medicine and went to sleep again.
In the afternoon, I looked much better.

"That damn girl is so lucky, she didn't die even after such a disaster!"
Zhao Yaru looked outside the door and cursed viciously.
Xu Wanqing frowned in disgust at her behavior. "Mother, you've already lost your job because of your mouth. Don't you think you've learned your lesson?"
Although Zhao Yaru was annoyed, Wanqing was right.
"Wanqing, don't worry. Mother has her own way of getting her to give up the household chores. Otherwise, this fire will be meaningless."
Xu Wanqing sneered, "Then mother, you better hurry up. After I get married, I will need some money to help Lu Lang."
When Zhao Yaru mentioned Lu Mingxuan, her face darkened. "You damn girl, there are so many good people out there, but you have to fall for this guy. Look how embarrassed he made you during the New Year!"
Thinking about the New Year gifts, Xu Wanqing felt a little unhappy. All her limelight this year was stolen by Xu Wanyan.
"Mom, Mingxuan is not feeling well, so..."
"So you can't find someone to run errands?"
Xu Wanqing stopped talking and tears fell down her face.
"You just know how to cry. In a few days, it will be the Lantern Festival. If the Lu family doesn't show any sign of support, your relationship will be over."
Xu Wanqing was upset and ran out angrily. She wanted to find Lu Mingxuan to find out.
Looking at Xu Wanqing's angry face, Lu Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, and then his disgust was evident in his words.
"Mingxuan, you..."
Xu Wanqing looked at him in astonishment, but that look was gone, replaced by a warm smile.
She suspected that she was dazzled.
"Wanqing, why are you here? I was planning to visit you during the Lantern Festival."
Lu Mingxuan's gentle words made Xu Wanqing confirm that it was just her illusion. She took Lu Mingxuan's arm and said coquettishly, "Mingxuan, I thought you didn't like me anymore?"
Lu Mingxuan sneered in his heart, but his face remained as calm as a spring breeze. "How could that be? I've been bedridden for the past few days, so I didn't go to the Xu family. You've been wronged."
Xu Wanqing pouted, leaned gently against Lu Mingxuan, and shook her head, "Don't feel wronged, as long as you have me in your heart."
Lu Mingxuan pointed at the book on the desk and said, "I've been busy studying lately and want to find a way."
Xu Wanqing's eyes sparkled, "Don't worry, when I marry in, I will use my dowry to pave the way for you."
"Wanqing, you are so good to me. I will never let you down."
Xu Wanqing left contentedly.
Sun looked at her back and couldn't help but spit, "Shameless whore!"
"mother......"
Lu Mingxuan had a gloomy face.
Sun was a little scared. She didn't know why, but Mingxuan always looked like this since he was beaten.
Ultimately, it was all the Xu family's fault for harming Mingxuan.
"I just can't stand her and make you feel wronged."
Lu Mingxuan's eyes darkened, "After she paves the way for me, I will not let the Xu family go."
Especially Xu Maocai.
Sun was filled with joy and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll do as you say. From now on, if there's any virgin girl you can find, I'll let this slut show off for a few days."
Lu Mingxuan glanced at her and said coldly, "Mom, please be careful with your words in the future."
Sun choked and nodded awkwardly, "Okay, Mom, be careful next time."
Lu Mingxuan went to read a book, but he couldn't focus on it. He had been searching for a long time but couldn't find out who had sent Xu Wanqing that night.
Why should he be this unclear bastard?
In a fit of anger, he threw away everything on the desk.
Ink spilled all over the floor, and books lay scattered on the ground.
Sun shrank her neck. Such scenes happened frequently recently.
