Chapter 136 Dreams and Reality
In the magnificent hall, servants were arranging flowers.
Pink roses are Miss Flower Slave's favorite.
Before it gets dark, the crystal chandeliers in the hall have already been turned on. Being in the golden hall feels like being at the center of the world.
Hua Nu was wearing a princess dress and strolling in the hall, looking at everything around her, all of which were prepared for her.
After tonight, she will stay in the Holy City forever.
"Sister Hua Nu, do you still like it?" Xiao Ruo was directing the servants to set up the scene. When he saw Hua Nu, he immediately trotted over and asked with a smile on his face.
"Thank you, I like it very much." Hua Nu said softly.
After all, her status is different now, and even her speech has a more noble tone.
"I'm glad you like it. I have a big surprise prepared for you at the dinner party," Xiao Ruo said with a smile.
"Thank you," Hua Nu hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Xiao Ruo, I just heard the maids at home gossiping about someone breaking into the city gate today. Is that true?"
"Yes," Xiao Ruo nodded, "but I've already had my men chase them away. You know, our Holy City has always been a place where no one can get close."
"That's good," Hua Nu nodded. "Grandma is here, so it's better for outsiders not to come in, lest Grandma be in danger."
"Haha..." Xiao Ruo laughed twice. She said, "Take your time to read it. I have something to explain to them."
"good."
Xiao Ruo walked away and continued to direct the servants to set up the scene. Hua Nu turned and walked out of the hall. She stood on the open-air balcony outside the hall, looking out at the entire city, and sighed in her heart, this is where she should live! This kind of life is the life she should have!
"Daughter!" A familiar voice broke Hua Nu's fantasy and pulled her back to real life.
Hua Nu looked towards the source of the sound and saw her mother. Her mother was dressed in rags and looked like a refugee. Her mother was waving at her with a smile under the terrace.
"Keep your voice down!" Hua Nu glanced guiltily into the hall, quickly walked down the terrace, and pulled her mother to a secluded place. "Mom, why are you here?"
"I came here specially to find you," Hua Nu's mother smiled and looked her over. "Daughter, you're dressed like this, I almost didn't recognize you."
"Hurry up and leave!" Hua Nu pushed her mother and said, "Are you doing this on purpose? Do you want to make me lose everything?"
"What do you mean?" Hua Nu's mother was frightened by Hua Nu's rage.
Hua Nu just asked Xiao Ruo, and Xiao Ruo said that the person had been driven away, but now he is right in front of her. Xiao Ruo is lying. I don’t know what evil intentions he has!
"Mom, let me ask you, what did Xiao Ruo tell you?"
Hua Nu's mother didn't understand what was going on, so she explained everything clearly: "She said that when you have rested enough in the evening, she will let me see you so that we can be reunited as mother and daughter."
There was no need to think about it. Xiao Ruo definitely wanted her mother to show up at the dinner party and expose her lie that she was not an orphan, so that the old lady would hate her and want to drive her out of the holy city.
"But how did you know I was here?"
"I've been looking for you in the lonely city by the sea, but I just can't find you. I took your brother and hid everywhere. Later, I met a man who told me you were here and asked me to come here to find you. When I got here, the soldiers guarding the city wouldn't let me in. Fortunately, Miss Xiao Ruo was kind. Not only did she let me in, she also prepared delicious food and drinks. Your brother and I had a big meal and rested for a while. I haven't felt so comfortable in a long time."
man?
Hua Nu thought about it carefully, could it be Xiao Xun?
After thinking about it, Hua Nu turned around and looked at the towering hospital building in the city. But wasn't Xiao Xun seriously ill and recuperating in the hospital?
"Hurry up and get everything done before dark!" Xiao Ruo's voice came from the door on the terrace.
Hua Nu quickly pulled her mother to a secluded corner of the garden. She said, "Mom, listen to me. Xiao Ruo is not a good person. She's trying so hard to help you. She just wants to harm me, embarrass me in front of everyone, and get me kicked out."
