Lu Peiran opened his mouth, but no sound came out; however, he could not hide the excitement in his heart.
He never knew that receiving gifts from others could be such a joyful thing...
Lu Peiran respectfully placed the jade ring close to his chest. "Thank you, senior brother. I'll accept it."
Liao Wu looked at him with a smile, "Take it!"
Lu Peiran happily patted his chest, "Senior brother, don't worry!"
I'll go back and try to persuade my father again. If I can convince him, then this matter...
I'll be 100% sure! Then, I'll bring you out of this hellhole in style!
Liao Wu smiled and nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble you!"
The two talked for a while longer, and before they knew it, even the dim sky began to glow with a faint white light.
Looking at the sky outside, Lu Peiran reluctantly said goodbye, "Senior brother, I'll head back now. Please take good care of yourself here!"
Liao Wu smiled and agreed, "I will, but be careful out there!"
Lu Peiran readily agreed, and then leaped out of the window he had come from...
Watching Lu Peiran disappear in an instant, he stood silently in place for a while, and finally let out a heavy sigh.
Liao Wu walked to the window where Lu Pei Ran had left, reached out and gently stroked it a few times, feeling an unprecedented sense of reluctance...
After leaving the palace, Lu Peiran didn't stop for a moment and went straight back to the Lu family.
However, he is now no longer affiliated with the Lu family, so he doesn't dare to enter through the main gate.
He quietly went around to the back door and then slipped through a passage known only to himself.
He had only been inside for a short while when a gleaming sword was pressed against his neck.
Lu Peiran immediately raised his hand, "It's me!"
The guard holding the sword glanced at the scene by the dim candlelight, and after a moment of shock, he was overjoyed. "Second Young Master!"
Lu Peiran immediately gestured for him to speak softly, "Is Father here?"
The guard answered in a low voice, "Yes!"
Lu Peiran immediately said in a deep voice, "Take me to see him."
The guard nodded excitedly, then walked ahead and respectfully led the way for him.
Following the guards, Lu Peiran quickly found his father, Lu Heng, the head of the Lu family.
Seeing his father lost in thought alone in the courtyard, Lu Peiran gently walked over and called out, "Father..."
Without turning his head, Lu Heng said, "You've always been this willful and reckless since you were a child."
That was true then, and it is true now.
If he had already made up his mind to become a monk, why did he come back?
Your return caused such a commotion. If I hadn't sent people to cover for you, you might have been arrested by Princess Chaoyang's men!
Although you have been away from the capital for several years, Princess Chaoyang's anger has never subsided!
You know perfectly well what's going on, so why did you dare to go to a place like the palace?
Are you tired of living? Don't you think you have enough life?!
Lu Peiran listened silently to his father's reprimand without uttering a single word in rebuttal.
Once his father's anger had subsided a little, he slowly told him about some of the things he had learned that day.
After hearing what Lu Peiran said, Lu Heng's lips pursed sharply downwards...
