"Miss, are we really leaving like this?"
Even after leaving the Marquis's residence, Linglong was still somewhat dazed. They were just going back to the General's mansion like this? How pathetic!
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhao glanced at Linglong, then nodded to Wenfeng and said:
"Wenfeng, you tell me!"
"Yes, Miss!"
Wen Feng bowed and then said:
"Linglong, Miss's move is a strategic retreat. The Marquis's mansion will not allow you to stay in the General's mansion any longer. They will come to invite you back later."
Wen Feng was calm and insightful, and he immediately saw the reason why Yuan Zhao did this.
After hearing Wenfeng's explanation, Linglong's eyes lit up, and she said happily:
"Then we can't just let it go like that. We must make the young master suffer properly."
"Of course!"
Yuan Zhao's lips curled slightly; she hadn't expected Zhou Shiyuan to hand her such leverage.
She took this opportunity to thoroughly humiliate him.
She also demanded that they return all the money she had given as dowry over the past three years.
Yuan Zhao made a big fuss when she left, and she didn't try to hide it from anyone, so many people knew that she had returned to the General's Mansion. According to the people living near the General's Mansion, they all heard General Yuan cursing.
This is no exaggeration; Yuan's father greeted everyone in the Marquis's mansion.
"Damn it, I haven't even gone to settle accounts with them yet, and they still dare to humiliate you like this."
“Divorce him! If Zhou Shiyuan dares to write a divorce letter, I’ll chop off his hand.”
"You still dare to lock you out? I'd like to see who gave your family the guts."
"Boss, second brother, grab your weapons."
The more Yuan's father cursed, the angrier he became, and he smashed the fine pear wood table, cracking it.
Although Yuan Zhao had explained to him why he had returned, he still couldn't swallow his anger.
He's not dead yet. How dare those incompetent people bully his daughter like this? He can't swallow this insult.
Yuan's father was an impatient man; once he decided to leave, he would go, and there was no way to stop him.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Zhao frowned and quickly pulled his elder brother, Yuan Gu, back.
"Brother, just let Father come over and make a scene, but you absolutely mustn't lay a hand on him."
"Also, don't go in, just make a scene at the entrance."
Her older brother was more thoughtful and composed, and she believed he would understand her meaning.
Sure enough, Yuan Gu glanced at her and said, nodding:
"I know what to do."
"However, Zhao Zhao, let's have a good talk when your older brother comes back."
If he only had doubts yesterday, he is now certain that his sister has indeed changed.
They had just seen each other a few days ago, and at that time, the younger sister was still wholeheartedly devoted to the Marquis's mansion. How could such a big change have occurred in just a few days?
Is it really just because Zhou Shiyuan brought a woman back that my sister's personality changed so drastically?
He felt there might be more to the story.
Yuan Zhao knew that her elder brother already had some doubts, so she could only nod in agreement.
At the same time, Rong Ruo also learned about what had happened at the Yongning Marquis's residence that day.
He heard the news as soon as he came out of the palace, and a rare look of doubt appeared on his usually indifferent face.
Last night, Yuan Zhao gave him a strange feeling. He personally confirmed that it was still the same Yuan Zhao and had not been replaced.
But how could a person change so much in such a short time?
After thinking for a moment, Rong Ruo raised an eyebrow and said:
"Investigate carefully what has happened at the Marquis's residence in the past few days, leaving no detail overlooked."
"yes!"
Qingzhu nodded and withdrew to handle the matter personally.
Yuan Zhao has a special status, and he personally handles all matters concerning her.
Rong Ruo sat in the sedan chair, wearing a flying fish robe. The red and blue flying fish robe made him look even more upright.
His long, jade-like hand was stroking the gyrfalcon on his shoulder, and he seemed lost in thought. After a long while, he slowly spoke:
"Since I have nothing to do today, I'll go and see what's going on."
"……yes."
The servants outside didn't know why their master had suddenly become interested in joining in the fun, but since he had spoken, they were bound to go and see what was going on.
