Chapter 586 - Malicious Su Muwei (1/2)

That was a little peculiar.

Lu Fenying was a savage demon who had even killed his own mother; there was no way he could have felt sympathy for the scared Qian’er.

He definitely wasn’t a man who could feel sympathy.

Yet, he treated Qian’er’s hand…

Gu Bailu felt that she needed to have a conversation with Lu Fenying.

When the pill was ready the next day, Gu Bailu didn’t wait for Lu Fenying’s men to fetch it, nor did she have Qian’er deliver it. She took it to Lu Fenying in the main courtyard herself.

Lu Fenying hadn’t returned from the royal palace yet, but the guards at the courtyard didn’t stop Gu Bailu.

She wandered around the main courtyard to familiarize herself with the layout, and even sneakily set up a transportation point with a rune.

Two maids followed her, but didn’t stop her from moving around.

When they reached a pavilion at the front of the main courtyard, Gu Bailu saw a grove of a hundred or so yellow plum blossoms that were in bloom.

Winter in Heavenly Wind Empire wasn’t as chilly as in Southern Glory Empire. Even though it was winter, there was no snow or piercing cold winds.

“Does your crown prince like plum blossoms a lot?” Gu Bailu asked curiously.

Lu Fenying would be able to see the plum blossoms the moment he opened his bedroom door. He wouldn’t have planted them here if he didn’t like them.

“The crown prince doesn’t like plum blossoms. This garden used to have peonies. Miss Su doesn’t like peonies, so the crown prince had the peonies moved, leaving the ground empty. Then, Miss Qian’er moved to the main courtyard. She planted the plum blossoms when she was bored.”

Gu Bailu raised an eyebrow. “Who is this Miss Qian’er?”
