Lan Linxue leaned against Qin Kou'er's bed, her lips tightly pressed together, staring intently at the raging wind and rain outside, exuding an indescribable sinister aura.
Shuanghua stood in the outer room, her face also looking very solemn and unpleasant.
It was Meiyan who came in and disturbed us.
She really couldn't figure out what the two men were doing in Qin Kou'er's room for so long.
So she came in to keep an eye on the two of them.
But at this moment, Lan Linxue's frightening expression made her regret: if she really risked her life for Qin Kou'er and let her and Jun Yannuo live happily ever after, wouldn't she be the most foolish yet most beautiful girl in the world?
Meiyan was lost in thought, but she still shamelessly stayed in the house, showing great responsibility.
Fortunately, although Lan Linxue looked unwell, she was just staring at the heavy rain outside, seemingly lost in thought, and did not make things difficult for anyone.
However, Meiyan was a very clever girl. Although she could normally completely disregard Lan Linxue, Lan Linxue's eyes were terrifying at this moment, and Qin Kou'er wasn't home. Of course, she would never dare to provoke a tiger at this time.
Therefore, Meiyan quietly and obediently served Lan Linxue, bringing her tea and water, and everything was done in silence.
As Lan Linxue listened to the increasingly intense sound of rain outside, her thoughts began to become chaotic.
The memorial tablet in Qin Kou'er's secret room made him feel extremely anxious and uneasy.
He always felt that this matter would bring about a huge change in his world, and that it would even make him discover that this was a secret that should never be revealed again.
Thinking of his mother, he felt a pang of sadness and pain, but thinking of Qin Kou'er, he felt both depressed and distressed.
Lan Linxue felt that the trust she had worked so hard to build with Qin Kou'er was about to collapse.
He knew that Qin Kou'er liked him, but behind that liking were always countless shadows, which made him extremely uneasy!
What exactly does she want to do?
Lan Linxue looked at the wind and rain outside and suddenly curled her lips in a mocking smile.
What can she do?
If someone's family members were transformed from living people into memorial tablets overnight, and a perfectly good young girl were transformed into a vengeful person with a deep-seated blood feud overnight, what would be left for her to do in life?
Of course, it's about taking the lives of our enemies! It's about turning the world into a river of blood!
Lan Linxue then thought of Qin Kou'er's portraits.
With such vivid, lifelike, and captivating portraits, he believed that Qin Kou'er's decision to place these people here was definitely not blind.
Her enemies were among these people.
In other words: the people who killed his mother are among these people!
But who exactly is it?
Who would have been so capable as to murder the Empress, who was the sole favorite in the harem, ten years ago?
A figure seemed to enter Lan Linxue's mind without her even having time to think.
Hu Tianyong!
Only he has such great ability! Whether it was ten years ago or ten years later!
But why did Hu Tianyong, who was perfectly fine, suddenly take a liking to the Qin family?
Why did his wife, whom he doted on so much, just stand by and watch his mother take her own life?
Lan Linxue felt he had to find out the truth about this matter, otherwise he would never be able to sleep peacefully for the rest of his life.
Time passed slowly, and Lan Linxue leaned against the bedside, lost in thought.
He didn't know how much time had passed, but suddenly he looked up at Shuanghua and asked, "What time is it now?"
Shuanghua glanced at the hourglass. "It's already past 11:45 PM!"
"What?"
Lan Linxue suddenly raised her eyebrows, stood up and walked to the window, saying in a low and angry voice, "It's already this late, why hasn't Qin Kou'er returned yet?"
Lan Linxue was so preoccupied with his mother's affairs that he didn't even realize how much time had passed and that Qin Kou'er still hadn't returned.
Meiyan didn't know how to answer, but she also found it strange. It was so late, even if Qin Kou'er still had something to say to Jun Yannuo, she should have come back by now, given the heavy rain.
Did they elope?
This was Mei Yan's reflexive thought. Then, her mind immediately started racing with wild, unfounded thoughts. She twisted her handkerchief, gritted her teeth, and swore on the ground that if she found Qin Kou'er, she would pinch her hard and confront her: Jun Yannuo is already taken, and she'd better give up on that idea.
Lan Linxue had no idea about the chaotic things Meiyan was thinking.
His heart was now entirely focused on Qin Kou'er, who hadn't returned home late at night: Where had she gone on such a cold and rainy night? Did she know that someone in the candlelight was anxiously worried about her?
Thinking of this, Lan Linxue coldly turned her head and looked at Shuanghua, giving the order: "Send people out! Find Qin Kou'er immediately!"
"yes!"
With that, Shuanghua turned and walked into the rain.
Seeing that only she and the unpredictable Lan Linxue were left in the room, Meiyan immediately chased after Shuanghua and ran out, "I'm going too!"
Lan Linxue ignored Meiyan and was just thinking quietly: Qin Kou'er, when you come back, I'll either kiss you unconscious or bite you to death!
At this moment, Qin Kou'er was still engaged in a fierce battle with Lan Xiuyuan in the heavy rain.
After finishing the vinegar fish, Lan Xiuyuan began his game of wits with Qin Kou'er.
At the beginning, both of them were still thinking about their own identities.
Qin Kou'er took care of Lan Xiuyuan, who was a prince, and deliberately gave him a slight advantage when playing chess.
Lan Xiuyuan, mindful of his status as a man, always maintained a gentlemanly demeanor during the game.
Jun Yannuo stood by the side to protect the two players while also pouring them fragrant tea from time to time.
