Just as Mu Chenshuang was about to lower the sedan curtain and return home in peace, a carriage happened to be coming from the opposite direction.
She suddenly opened her eyes wide and stared intently at the carriage.
It was not for any other reason than that this luxurious carriage actually belonged to the Zhu Qinzhu family.
As the Zhu family's carriage was about to pass by hers, Mu Chenshuang subconsciously leaned forward slightly, as if trying to get a better look at what was happening inside the carriage.
Just when she thought she might not be able to see anything at all, she suddenly saw that the curtain of the carriage of the Zhu family was also lifted, and the woman sitting by the window had a face that she was very familiar with.
Wishing you a happy moon!
"Zhu..." Mu Chenshuang was startled and realized what was happening.
She had already briefly suspected Zhu Yue when she first saw her, as she appeared to be a noble young lady from a prominent family.
However, she also felt that Zhu Yue was kind, understanding, helpful, humble and polite, and in any way, she found it hard to connect her with Zhu Qin's daughter.
Putting aside everything else, just considering the sons of Zhu Qin that Mu Chenshuang knew, their personalities were similar to Zhu Qin's: opportunistic and ruthless.
After finally recovering from her shock, Mu Chenshuang looked up at the Zhu family's carriage again. She saw that Zhu Yue in the carriage had also seen her and was now gripping the window frame with both hands, leaning slightly forward and turning her head to look at her.
On Zhu Yue's face, Mu Chenshuang could see anxiety, fear, worry, and reluctance.
Upon seeing this, Mu Chenshuang was once again surprised. Zhu Yue's eyes seemed to be asking her for help.
In the brief exchange of glances between the two, by the time Mu Chenshuang sensed the message Zhu Yue was conveying to her, the two carriages traveling in opposite directions were already quite far apart.
Even if Mu Chenshuang wanted to respond, it was too late.
Helpless, Mu Chenshuang could only watch the Zhu family's carriage disappear into the distance before slowly settling into her seat.
Considering that Zhu Yue lived alone with her daughter in such a quiet place, never mentioning to anyone that she was Zhu Qin's daughter, and given today's situation, Mu Chenshuang guessed that Zhu Yue probably didn't like life in the Zhu family mansion.
But did Zhu Yue know everything her father had done? Or did she really know what kind of wicked and evil person her father was?
With these questions that she couldn't ask for the time being, Mu Chenshuang sighed slightly and could only return to the Marquis's residence first, and ask Zhu Yue in person when she had the chance in the future.
Mu Chenshuang slowly leaned her head against the carriage, feeling a surge of emotion. She hadn't seen Zhu Yue many times before, mostly by chance. If she had really been forcibly taken back to the Zhu family mansion and locked up, she probably wouldn't have seen her again.
After returning to the Jingbian Marquis's residence, Linglong and Honghua served her the whole time, helping her change her clothes and have a meal. However, Mu Chenshuang remained preoccupied and hardly spoke.
Linglong and Honghua exchanged a glance, sensing that something was amiss. Linglong stepped forward and asked, "Miss, what happened when you went to see Prince Xiaoyao today? Why are you so gloomy? You've had a furrowed brow ever since you came back."
Looking at the concerned looks in her and Honghua's eyes, Mu Chenshuang simply shook her head and said, "It's not that I encountered anything at the Prince of Xiaoyao's place."
"I just ran into an acquaintance on the way back," Mu Chenshuang said in a deep voice.
