What Luo Xiaoniang cared about most was whether Geng Yuepeng was still alive and where he had died; she didn't care about anything else.
So what if Yanyu Tower is gone? As long as people are alive, with Geng Yuepeng's abilities, it's not like he can't rebuild Yanyu Tower in the future. It's just a matter of time!
Therefore, what she cared about most was not the survival of Yanyu Tower, but the life or death of Geng Yuepeng.
It's not that Luo Xiaoniang loves Geng Yuepeng so much or is so worried about his safety; her concern, from beginning to end, is only for herself!
From the moment she met Geng Yuepeng and witnessed his prowess, Luo Xiaoniang began to have a deeper plan in her heart. She was abandoned by her parents when she was young and, although she was adopted and raised, she lived a very difficult life. The good life she wanted could only be earned by herself!
So she vowed to find the most powerful person in the world who could protect her, give her the life she wanted, and give her the ultimate love!
After wandering for a long time, she finally met him. She didn't care whether Geng Yuepeng had a woman he liked or how many women were around him. She had made up her mind about him, so she would stop at nothing to make him hers!
She succeeded in the end, and that was her achievement!
She has always been proud of this, which shows that she is capable and charming, and that she lives the life she wants through her own efforts!
And Geng Yuepeng lived up to her expectations, treating her incredibly well, doting on her to the core, and cherishing her like a precious gem!
Therefore, she would not allow anything to happen to Geng Yuepeng!
As long as Geng Yuepeng can get through it, her sky will always be bright and sunny; otherwise, it will definitely be gloomy!
She will probably stay in this dark and gloomy place for the rest of her life until she dies.
She didn't want to imagine that kind of life; it was too cruel and heartless for her!
Geng Yuepeng absolutely cannot get hurt!
However, the maid didn't hear any news about Geng Yuepeng's whereabouts; instead, she heard more news about the downfall of Yanyu Tower.
Luo Xiaoniang's heart sank. She had to analyze the situation quickly and make a final decision.
It seems the matter is quite serious. The news has even reached the mansion, so the whole capital probably knows about it. Although there may be many versions, the core points will not differ too much!
It seems that Yanyulou is really on the verge of collapse, and Geng Yuepeng may also be seriously injured.
This is perfectly normal. Luo Xiaoniang had long anticipated this day. After all, Yanyu Tower hadn't done anything good, and she knew it all too well, but she just didn't say it!
Sooner or later, someone will come knocking on their door seeking revenge. In this world, there are always people more powerful than you, and there are always mountains beyond mountains. There are people more powerful than Yanyu Tower, but Yanyu Tower may not have offended them yet.
But Luo Xiaoniang didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Her daughter was about to get married, but a problem arose at this crucial moment. Why couldn't it have been delayed?
She didn't care about Geng Yuepeng at all, nor was she grateful for his efforts. She even felt that what Geng Yuepeng did for her was his due!
Su Mingyue couldn't calm down either; she thought about many, many things, her mind a complete mess.
Although many things did not go through her hands completely, and she did not have any blood on her hands, the very beginning was because of her desires; she wanted things that did not conform to her status!
She even personally plotted, poisoned, and framed others; she did these things quite often.
Like Luo Xiaoniang, what she cared about most at this moment was not Geng Yuepeng's safety, but her own interests.
What they care about most is what kind of life they will lead after they lose their support.
Because they know very well what they have done. Without their support, they have no protection. No one will shield them from all the swords and spears. The bad things they have done will become sharp blades that will turn against them!
Without a powerful backer to rely on, they are weak and vulnerable, and without help, they are easily put on the defensive and find it difficult to turn their lives around!
"What did my stepmother say?"
Su Mingyue sent her maids out to gather information, but none of them were allowed to leave the mansion. At first, they were not even allowed to leave the courtyard. Later, it seemed that something had happened in the mansion and the management was not so strict, allowing them to move around secretly. Su Mingyue's maids then sneaked out again.
The maid had just returned and hadn't even closed the door when Su Mingyue jumped up and asked anxiously.
She couldn't think of any good solutions right now. She'd heard that the mansion was in complete disarray and people weren't allowed to move around freely, so the only person she could rely on was her own mother.
In the past, whenever there was a major issue, she would turn to her mother. She knew very well that in the mansion, only her mother was of one mind with her; no one else could be trusted or relied upon!
In crucial moments, it's still my mother who personally steps in to solve the problem; she's already used to it.
"Miss, I didn't get any information. I was discovered as soon as I went out and was punished by being made to stand outside silently for half an hour. There was no one around, and I dared not move! When the time was up, someone came to tell me to go back directly!"
Su Mingyue was so angry she wanted to bite her teeth; this was too much!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, so he took it out on the things in the room, smashing quite a few things.
The maid was used to it and didn't go forward to dissuade her. She just stood there numbly with her head down.
She had no choice. Experience told her that if she wasn't afraid of death, she should go forward. If she did that, she wouldn't have a good day!
You can't get out without getting big and small wounds all over your body!
Only after her young lady has vented her anger will things calm down. She can then tidy herself up properly and it will all be over. The smart thing to do at this time is to pretend that you didn't see anything and know nothing!
To save your life, you must learn to be a partridge when the time is right.
After venting her anger, Su Mingyue was exhausted and sat down to the side, instructing her maid to tidy up.
When the night was deep and quiet, everyone in the mansion was asleep and there was hardly anyone around. Su Mingyue couldn't sleep, so after having her maid try to find out what was wrong a few times, she quietly slipped out to look for Luo Xiaoniang.
"How did you get here? Were you discovered?"
"No! Everyone in the manor has retired for the night, and no one was watching. I sneaked over here without alerting anyone!"
"Come in quickly, go inside!"
"Young lady, let's not stay here. We won't get any real information here. Now that no one is watching, it's a good opportunity. Let's sneak out like we always do! We'll be back before dawn, and they won't find us!"
"This! Today is different from usual. I'm worried it might be a trap. The young master wouldn't be so careless. Why would he let us out so easily?"
“Young lady, you’re overthinking it! Things haven’t been peaceful in the manor these past few days. We don’t know what’s going on, but it’s been a complete mess. He doesn’t have the energy to keep an eye on us all the time! Don’t hesitate any longer! If we delay any longer, we’ll miss our chance! Our route in and out is very well hidden. No one can find it. As long as we’re careful, we won’t be discovered!”
