Chapter 205
The surrounding air seemed to have frozen into ice, and Rong Rong heard the sound of swords being drawn in unison.
There were threats coming from both the front and the back of the carriage. Even through the carriage, Rong Rong could feel the tense, imminent killing intent.
Just as the two sides were about to make their move, Rong Rong's voice rang out first.
"Enough! Take me back to my residence!"
Rong Rong's unusually calm tone caused the guards beside the carriage, who were supposed to escort her out of the capital, to change their expressions, even showing some fear.
The reason they disobeyed Lu Linfeng was not only because they were under the orders of the heir Lu Youning, but more importantly because they did not want anyone to harm Miss Rong.
Miss Rong should be cherished and protected, and forever free and happy.
However, now they seem to have angered each other, which makes them feel both upset and scared.
Their almost reflexive answer was, "Yes!"
Immediately afterwards, the coachman cracked his whip, turned the horse around, and prepared to take Rongrong back to the capital.
"Insolence!" Lu Linfeng's face turned pale, and the murderous aura he had fought his way up on the battlefield surged towards the carriage and the guards like a giant wave.
"The Marquis of Zhenguo's mansion is becoming more and more unruly!" Chen Liehu roared, as if he, not Lu Linfeng, had been slapped in the face. "Disobedient dogs should be killed!"
As soon as Chen Liehu finished speaking, the guards behind Lu Linfeng all raised their swords and stepped forward, about to kill the guards around the carriage, especially the coachman.
But Chen Liehu's urgent voice suddenly stopped everything, "Wait!"
He quickly spurred his horse forward, abruptly lifted the carriage curtain, and then froze in place.
In that instant, a gust of wind lifted the carriage curtain, and Chen Liehu caught a glimpse of it, his heart struck a heavy blow.
He wasn't sure if he was seeing things or what, but a voice inside him urged him to go over.
He impatiently stopped the carriage, then his mind went blank and his heart leaped into his throat.
It turns out that the sister I had discarded like trash was actually such a fairy, and I had even spoken ill of her before.
At this moment, Chen Liehu wished he could slap himself hard. He couldn't imagine how upset his words had made the other person.
Why was he so cruel to a vulnerable woman? She was his sister, the sister he had doted on and cherished for over a decade, all because of a small mistake...
Chen Liehu's mind was in complete chaos, and his body was stiff.
By then, the carriage had already passed Lu Linfeng. Lu Linfeng turned around and saw Chen Liehu staring intently into the carriage with a strange expression.
Without warning, the guards surrounding the carriage attacked Chen Liehu.
They drew their swords and blades, their faces contorted with rage, and charged at Chen Liehu without holding back.
Lu Linfeng was furious. He couldn't understand whether his elder brother's guards were possessed by evil spirits, unable to distinguish who their master was.
He waved his hand, and the guards behind him immediately rushed forward to stop Lu Youning's guards.
What puzzled Lu Linfeng even more was that Chen Liehu had just stood there dumbfounded without reacting. If he hadn't ordered his men to come forward, Chen Liehu might have been hit by his elder brother's guards.
This is not the reaction of someone who has been on the battlefield.
A strange feeling crept over me; I had a gut feeling that something beyond my control had happened, and it was related to the people in the carriage.
Lu Linfeng quickly stepped forward, and when he could see the person inside the carriage through Chen Liehu's shoulder, he stopped abruptly and his eyes widened.
Lu Linfeng, who was always calm and composed, had never lost his composure like this before.
How should one describe the beauty in the carriage?
Lu Linfeng racked his brains, trying to come up with every word he knew, but none of them seemed worthy of the beauty before him.
It's either too vulgar or lacks a bit of charm.
The other person sat there calmly, and his gentle gaze only glanced at him briefly, yet it made his heart tighten and his body stiffen.
His thoughts and soul were now completely at the mercy of the other party.
Rong Rong was initially surprised, but her pretty face had already darkened. She knew that the person lifting the carriage curtain was the original owner's former second brother.
She loathed the other person, not only because the other person had misunderstood the original owner, but also because of the other person's terrible attitude just now.
Rong Rong's disgust was like a sharp sword, instantly piercing Chen Liehu's heart. Chen Liehu retreated abruptly, feeling as if he could no longer breathe.
"Is this your rule?" Rong Rong mocked, her eyes filled with coldness.
In an instant, Chen Liehu felt the pain of heartbreak. He realized that being hated by someone he cared about was so heart-wrenching.
Rong Rong didn't look at Chen Liehu again, but instead turned her gaze to Lu Linfeng behind Chen Liehu. She didn't speak, but her eyes said it all.
Just now, Lu Linfeng and the others were talking about etiquette. Could it be that their etiquette is to so impolitely lift the curtain of a female relative's carriage and stare at her?
Lu Linfeng immediately snapped out of his daze. He quickly composed himself, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, "It was my fault for disturbing you, little sister."
"Perhaps you should call me sister-in-law." Her sweet voice was aggressive, and because it was so soft, it gave people an inexplicably cute feeling. Even though she was giving you a hard time, you just wanted to smile knowingly.
The premise is that Rong Rong wasn't asking him to call her sister-in-law.
Lu Linfeng's face darkened again. His eyes were deep, and he didn't respond to Rong Rong's words. Instead, he stepped forward and lowered the curtain of Rong Rong's carriage to ensure that the entire carriage was completely covered before turning around and ordering, "Return to the manor!"
The Marquis of Anding's residence, Cui Liu Residence.
Chen Qinxue was arranging flowers inside the house, a hobby she had cultivated throughout her life.
Whenever she felt agitated and on the verge of losing her temper, she would arrange flowers to help her stay calm.
In her past life, it was because she couldn't control her emotions and was too impulsive that she did some annoying things and said some hateful things.
Unlike Rong Rong, who was adept at feigning innocence and acting clever.
In this life, she learned from the other person's example, hiding all the emotions that outsiders would consider bad, and as a result, she won the pity of her parents and her eldest and second eldest brothers.
In her past life, these people were indifferent to her, blaming her for having impure thoughts and being unfit for respectability. They were clearly her blood relatives, yet they sided with outsiders.
This time, she will definitely make them experience the suffering she endured in her past life, the pain of being abandoned and betrayed by her closest relatives!
Chen Qinxue's face contorted in a grimace, but in the blink of an eye it returned to normal.
Footsteps were heard immediately afterward at the door.
"Miss, the bandits didn't find anyone; the plan has failed!"
The maid Hongying looked grave, and the flower branch in Chen Qinxue's hand snapped instantly.
Her revenge against Rong Rong would not end with the other party being driven out of the Marquis of Anding's mansion. She had died so tragically in her previous life, how could Rong Rong get away with it so easily?
Besides, the other party went straight to the Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion after leaving the An Ding Marquis's Mansion. It was just a change of scenery to continue enjoying her life. This is not what she wanted. Heaven is really unfair!
She had been looking for an opportunity to deal with her again, and for the past four years she had kept a close watch on Rong Rong's whereabouts.
Having finally learned that Rongrong had gone out to Lingyin Temple, she hurriedly bribed the local bandits to kidnap Rongrong and torture her on the mountain, but Rongrong managed to escape.
