"Since you have said that Brother Dong is our child, he will not blame his biological mother. If he cannot even do this, then what is the use of this child?"

Hearing this, Lu Shangxuan's body seemed stiff for a moment.

However, he recovered in the next second, and then said this understatement, which made Lu Lianzhi panic and lose her mind.

"What's the point of coming here? Please tell me clearly!"

However, Lu Shangxuan just shook his head and said in a cold tone: "Since we all chose to do this at the beginning, we should have expected such a result."

"I don't want to hear this!"

Lu Lianzhi cried miserably and shouted hysterically, but she could only see the indifferent back of Lu Shangxuan pulling away in despair.

This was the first time she realized the panic that retribution brought to her.

Even she didn't know why everything was going according to her plan a few months ago, but now it suddenly became completely out of control.

After she stood there until her tears could no longer be shed, she dragged her body back to the yard in despair.

"Second Miss, you are back."

Lu Lianzhi heard the sound and saw the figure guarding outside the house with just one glance.

For a moment, she thought it was Lu Shangxuan who was back, but when the voice sounded, the look on Lu Lianzhi's face suddenly became disappointed.

"Li Ke, what are you doing here?"

Lu Lianzhi frowned and was not in the mood to pay attention to him at the moment, so she passed him by.

Li Ke probably also noticed that Lu Lianzhi was unhappy, so he stepped aside and whispered: "Second Miss, I asked the kitchen to prepare sweet-scented osmanthus sugar balls for you. Do you want to take a bite before resting?"

"You are considerate."

Lu Lianzhi did not refuse, but nodded and asked him to bring it over.

After a while, Li Ke walked into the room with the sugar water and carefully placed it in front of Lu Lianzhi.

He lit up the remaining unlit candles in the room one by one, making the whole room look bright and making Lu Lianzhi feel a little less depressed.

She lowered her head and glanced at the osmanthus sugar balls in front of her. Each one was exquisitely made, with fillings made of osmanthus honey and peanuts. The outer layer of water-ground powder was also dotted with some osmanthus stamens, which looked particularly delicious and tempting. people.

"What else did you add to this sugar water?"

Lu Lianzhi picked up the bowl and smelled it. It seemed to have a faint medicinal smell. She looked up at Li Ke with some confusion and asked.

"I saw that the second lady has been very worried these days, and seems to be in need of food and drink, so I took it upon myself to ask the people in the kitchen to add some nourishing tonics to you. Maybe after drinking them, it can relieve your pain. I’m feeling anxious.”

"Nourishing supplements? Oh, every month she, Dou Lianyi, allocates a small amount of money to my yard. How can those snobbish servants in the kitchen be willing to give me any supplements? Don't use these stale ones. This thing came to deceive me."

Seeing Lu Lianzhi sneer and want to put the bowl back on the table in disgust, Li Ke quickly explained: "That's not the case, Miss Er, the supplements inside were bought by me with my own monthly money. Although It’s not much, but it’s definitely not so bad that you can’t eat it. I hope the second lady can give it a try.”

"You bought it with your own monthly money?"

Lu Lianzhi was stunned for a moment, then her expression changed with Li Ke's words, and she said with some emotion: "You don't have much money every month, so why do you do such stupid things? Besides, it's just a bowl of osmanthus. Sugar balls, no matter how many supplements are added, they will not have any effect on my body except affecting the taste."

"That's not the case," Li Ke shook his head and responded seriously: "I just want the second young lady to know that whenever the second young lady needs it, I will be willing to give everything to you for the second young lady." Lu Lianzhi His heart moved slightly, and he suddenly raised his eyes to look at the man standing respectfully in front of him.

In fact, from this point of view, his handsome features are not inferior to Lu Shangxuan's.

It's just a little less noble.

Thinking of this, Lu Lianzhi lowered her head without saying a word, scooping up the sweet-scented osmanthus sugar balls into her mouth to taste the taste.

It's almost winter now, and the night temperature outside has an overwhelming coldness, and a hazy mist escapes between conversations and breathing.

However, after she finished the bowl of sweet soup in front of her, her body felt inexplicably a little warmer and sweeter.

During this period, Li Ke stood quietly aside without saying a word.

It wasn't until Lu Lianzhi put the silver spoon back into the bowl and it made a crisp sound that he raised his eyebrows and looked over.

"Second Miss, please clear the table now."

"Not urgent."

Lu Lianzhi rarely smiled at Li Ke. She was not bad at all, and her sudden smile became even brighter and more charming under the candlelight that filled the room.

Li Ke's heart trembled when he saw it, and he was even more speechless.

Seeing this, Lu Lianzhi's smile deepened a little. She stood up, but her head seemed a little dizzy for some reason.

She only heard a low "Oh!" and then her body swayed, as if she was unsteady and about to fall.

Li Ke, who had been secretly paying attention to Lu Lianzhi, suddenly shrank his pupils and subconsciously reached out to give her a hand.

Lu Lianzhi originally wanted to push Li Ke's hand away, but for some reason a feeling of powerlessness suddenly came over her, causing her fingertips to slide off the back of Li Ke's hand.

The momentary touch made Li Ke swallow his saliva involuntarily.

"Offended, Second Miss."

Without thinking, Li Ke hugged Lu Lianzhi tightly and apologized in a low voice.

"Since you know it's an offense, why don't you let me go quickly?"

Lu Lianzhi held Li Ke's sleeve in vain, and there was a faint light in her eyes.

Her words were strong, but her voice sounded as soft and soft as if she was coquettish, as if she had completely forgotten the different identities between Li Ke and herself.

"I see that the second young lady can't stand still now. If I let go rashly, I'm afraid that the second young lady will get hurt."

Hearing Li Ke speak so sincerely, but he didn't let go of his hand at all. Lu Lianzhi should have been furious at his overstepping behavior, but for some reason she couldn't muster the strength.

Even when she kept smelling the faint and familiar fragrance of Li Ke, she became a little confused and murmured: "You smell so good, what is the fragrance?"

"Second Miss, you forgot again. I never use any incense."

When Lu Lianzhi reacted, she was almost lying in Li Ke's arms.
