Lin Moran naturally couldn't let An Yuan'er actually kneel before her, so she immediately helped her up.
She sighed, "Is teaching you all I have to do today?"
An Yuan'er nodded.
Lin Moran went berserk and finally swore out a curse word that no one knew where it came from.
"I'm completely under your thumb, brother and sister. There's nothing I can do about it."
"I must have owed you and your brother something in my past life."
An Yuan'er's eyes lit up: "Mo Ran, you promised me?"
"If I don't agree, do you really want me to be a pair of lovebirds in the rain? An Yuan'er, wake up, I like your brother."
An Yuan'er happily hugged Lin Moran: "Moran, you're so good. You'll definitely be the best sister-in-law in the world."
Lin Moran took a few steps back: "No! I can't accept being called 'sister-in-law' like that. Let me warn you upfront, I'm very fierce when I teach people to ride horses. If you cry during the lesson, I won't wipe your tears."
An Yuan'er nodded vigorously: "I can endure hardship, I definitely won't cry."
Lin Moran called for a carriage, put An Yuan'er in it, and took her back to the Lin residence.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and Yi Chenli thought of the pitiful figure he had locked out of the door.
Why hasn't she come back yet? Is she angry? She'll catch a cold if she gets caught in the rain.
"Li Gui, where is An Yuan'er?"
Li Gui hesitated for a moment, then said cautiously, "The steward from the Lin family just came to say that Miss An and Miss Lin are close friends and that Miss An will be staying at the Lin family residence for a few days."
Yi Chenli fell silent.
Li Gui could tell that Yi Chenli was not in high spirits and seemed quite down.
He said, "If Master does not agree, this servant can have Miss An brought back."
Yi Chenli refused.
"She'll make new friends eventually, there's no need."
"Then I will have the first and second sons inquire about what Miss An is doing at the Lin residence, and tell the master everything in detail."
Yi Chenli refused again.
"I promised her I wouldn't follow her or try to find out her whereabouts. There's no need to inquire anymore."
"You should go out too."
Li Gui glanced at her master with concern, then slowly withdrew.
Yi Chenli looked up and saw the calligraphy hanging in the center of the study: "The grass on the plain grows lush and green."
He still remembered what An Yuan'er said to him when he was writing this calligraphy: she said that they were destined by heaven, which was why their names would appear in a poem.
Over the years, it was thanks to her that Yi Chenli was able to gradually control his emotions. But today, the abandonment of his family has given Yi Chenli the idea of destroying everything again, and he no longer wants to endure it.
As soon as he gave the signal, the old man came out.
"What are your orders, Master?"
Yi Chenli sat in his wheelchair without even frowning, and said emotionlessly, "Today when I returned to the palace, I encountered several young masters, which made me very unhappy."
"This servant will go and teach them a lesson."
Yi Chenli glanced coldly at Lao Yi, and two words escaped his thin lips: "Kill him."
The old man was startled, but he dared not disobey his master's orders and replied, "Yes."
"Yi Chenxuan has recently been inquiring about the girl that Yi Chenqi has taken a liking to. Go and spread the word that the entire capital must know that the Fifth Prince is in love with Han Yuanyuan, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Han."
"yes."
Suddenly remembering something, Lao Yi said, "Master, our people with the First Prince have found out that he seems to be planning to assassinate the Fifth Prince during the competition three days from now."
Yi Chenli lowered his eyes indifferently: "What does this have to do with me?"
