"Jing'er, can I come back to play with you later?"
Mrs. Pei did not answer him.
Li Chaojing lowered his head unhappily.
In the darkroom nearby, Li Qingluo asked Zheng Wanxiu, "You've seen how he looks now, so... what are your plans, Aunt Zheng?"
"Although what happened back then had nothing to do with me, the person who gave birth to me committed those crimes against you."
"Now that the truth is out, she will get the retribution she deserves."
"This home...will you come back?"
Zheng Wanxiu stared at Li Chaojing intently and smiled coldly, "Back? Back to where? Back to this house that has trapped me for over a decade, and become your father's canary again?"
"Although your father saved me back then, when I begged him to set me free, I was deceived by his sweet words... I was trapped in the small courtyard of Yueming Garden for more than ten years because of so-called love."
"Back then, it was my own fault for not judging people well enough and falling deeply in love. Even though he's been so considerate to me over the years, none of my children were killed because of his incompetence."
"Even if I was stupid at the time, I'm not going to come back after finally leaving here!"
"Also, the reason I agreed to come back and help you pretend to be a ghost today was because of my own vengeance. It has nothing to do with you."
Li Qingluo was really afraid that she would agree to come back.
So those few words just now were just a test for her.
Because if she, the fugitive protector of the Lotus Sect, really came back, she would have a real headache.
"It's up to you. But, my half-brother, don't you also have to acknowledge your ancestors?"
Zheng Wanxiu turned her head and stared at Li Qingluo with sharp eyes.
"Sure enough, you already knew his identity?"
Li Qingluo: "Is it difficult to guess?"
However, she also completely and truly confirmed Jingchuan's identity.
Jingchuan, Li Jingchuan.
Sure enough, he was his other brother.
Li Qingluo: "Today, my maid went to invite him to the general's mansion. Although he has not appeared yet, I will wait for him until tomorrow."
"If he doesn't make any movement tomorrow, I will send someone to escort you and your son out of Jinling City. Go far away and don't come back."
Zheng Wanxiu was shocked when she heard this: "Why? You clearly know me, who I am? Why don't you report me? That way you can make a great contribution..."
Li Qingluo: "Because you are his mother."
"He would be very sad if you died."
Zheng Wanxiu was stunned for a moment.
Then he suddenly burst into laughter.
As she laughed, tears began to flow down her face.
"As expected of Chuan'er... He also protected you so well. After all, it wasn't in vain..."
"You two are indeed siblings. Even though you've never been together, your hearts are connected, and that can't be faked."
"Child, do you know that your life story was actually a letter I sent to your grandmother?"
Li Qingluo was surprised: "It's you?"
Zheng Wanxiu smiled bitterly, "Yes. Back then, the person who watched you being replaced was not only your grandmother, but also me."
"Many years later, I revealed your life story to the old lady, hoping she would find you and bring you back. I wanted to make the mothers and daughters, and the fathers and daughters, hate and enmity each other in the General's Mansion. I wanted them to taste the pain I felt when I lost my children, and to unleash unrest throughout the General's Mansion..."
"You hate me!"
Li Qingluo: "Hate? Not really. You have nothing to do with me. Even because of my biological mother, you should really ignore my suffering."
"And you have indeed achieved your goal."
"So, what was Zheng Lingzhou's intention in taking me to Jingyun Villa?"
Li Qingluo: "You don't have to tell me, but I have to tell you one thing. I have a miracle doctor in my house who can save Li Jingchuan's life and give him a few more years."
Zheng Wanxiu's face instantly showed ecstasy: "Really?"
However, if you change your life, you can live for decades longer!
Zheng Wanxiu hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "Ling Zhou does have other feelings for you. But it's not what you think. It's because he...he, ah, I can't say it!"
Li Qingluo reacted instantly.
She looked annoyed: "Shameless!"
She left after saying these two words.
Zheng Wanxiu stared at her back with her eyes narrowed deeply.
"It's better to leave... This way, I can go save Ling Zhou and still find Zulia in time..."
"I'm sorry. Even if you are a good child who can distinguish between good and evil, I still want my child to live a long and healthy life."
After Li Qingluo walked out quickly, Nanny Deng followed.
"Miss, are you really going to let her and Master Jingchuan leave?"
Li Qingluo: "Your Highness saw her appear in the General's Mansion today, and he knows her identity. Can she escape?"
"Besides, I'm afraid the mother and son will want to save Zheng Lingzhou's life, so they will never leave easily."
A smile flashed across Madam Deng's face. "So, young lady, you are deliberately playing a trick on her? I thought you were sincere to her. Zheng Wanxiu has been tossing and turning in the martial arts world for years. She is definitely not worthy of your sincere trust."
Li Qingluo: "I know. What she said is definitely not entirely true."
Including the truth about Zheng Lingzhou taking her to Jingyun Villa, Zheng Wanxiu's words were definitely just an excuse to cover up for herself.
She then sighed again: "Ah, but I have already given her a chance."
"She didn't want it herself."
So, don’t blame yourself for being cruel when you fall out with others.
Back at Jingci Hall, Li Qingluo sat down and asked curiously, "Why has there been no movement from Lancang Courtyard all day? After all, Qu is Li Kechuan's biological mother. She loves him the most, so why hasn't he come out to see her?"
"Also, I heard that Liu Qingzhu has been suffering a lot recently. Have you gone to ask her what happened?"
"Today is Prince Yun's birthday, and she didn't go back?"
