Chapter 137 He is still alive!

When Empress Lu saw the person not far away, she suddenly grabbed the eunuch beside her and said in disbelief: "How come that person looks exactly like Pei Zhuo? Am I dazzled?"

Or rather, she would rather it was her own eyes that were dazzled.

The eunuch's expression was not very good either, and he replied in a low voice: "I also think he looks exactly like Pei Zhuo."

He was the one who put Pei Zhuo in prison personally, so he would not admit his mistake.

Just when Empress Lu was shocked, Helian Sheng led Helian Zhuo and others over to say hello, and Empress Lu responded in a daze.

When Helian Zhuo arrived, he looked at Empress Lü deeply and said meaningfully, "Empress Dowager, long time no see."

Hearing the familiar voice, Empress Lu's legs trembled.

There was a little girl standing next to Helian Zhuo. She was pretty and took his arm affectionately. She said coquettishly, "There's no need to introduce me. I just followed Brother Zhuo here to eat and drink for free."

Helian Sheng looked at the little girl and doted on her: "You are so old, but you are still like a child."

While the Helian family was talking, Empress Lu quickly left. She hurriedly walked to the door and told the eunuch beside her, "Quick, tell Qi Yue that she doesn't need to attend the banquet today."

How could it be Pei Zhuo? He was not dead and had transformed into the second prince of the Helian family. Looking at Pei Zhuo's provocative expression, Empress Lu could guess how he planned to take revenge on them.

No, to be exact, it was revenge against Zhao Qiyue. After all, it was she who drove him away.

No, no, we can't let them meet.

Just as she was complaining in her heart, Zhao Qiyue had already walked to the door.

Empress Lü broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly stepped forward to block Zhao Qiyue, saying without any confidence: "Qiyue, why are you here? It's windy today, go back and rest."

Zhao Qiyue tilted her head and said in confusion: "Didn't you say that it's not good to stay in the house all the time and asked me to come out and get some fresh air?" Empress Lu: Uh...

She showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and pulled Zhao Qiyue's arm and walked away: "It suddenly occurred to me that there are too many people at the banquet. It would be bad if I bumped into you. Come on, mother will take you back."

Zhao Qiyue pursed her lips and said, okay, she didn't really want to come anyway.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, a man suddenly walked out of the room. He was tall and hard to ignore.

Zhao Qiyue caught a glimpse of the man's face from the corner of his eye, his steps paused, and his heart felt like it was clenched into a fist.

She wanted to speak, to scream, or even to cry, but when she opened her lips, no syllable came out.

Pei Zhuo walked past her, glanced down at him condescendingly, his eyes devoid of any warmth, and just walked away.

Zhao Qiyue seemed to be frozen. After a while, tears as big as beans suddenly fell.

She excitedly grabbed Empress Lu's hand and said, "Mother, that man was Pei Zhuo, right? He's still alive!"

Seeing Zhao Qiyue's excited face, Empress Lu suddenly felt sad and choked up and said, "So what? It's been so long, do you think you're still the same person who is devoted to me?

Look at how flirty he is with the girl next to him. He must have come back to show off. Who knows how much he hates you in his heart. Listen to me, don't mess with him."

Zhao Qiyue could no longer hear the rest of the words.

She stared blankly at Pei Zhuo's back, wiped her tears with the back of her hand, and kept repeating: "It's great to be still alive."
