Chapter 74.2 - Has the Dowry Been Properly Prepared (1/2)

Luo Qing Luan shook her head. Dai Yue was indeed easy to satisfy, without any guile at all. She certainly was unable to understand why Luo Cheng’s attitude had changed.

This father of hers, because of her birth mother having passed away in addition to Wang Xue Ru’s instigation, had misunderstood her for many years. At present, the warmth and affection ordinarily existing between a father and his daughter was basically no more. She also reconciled herself to this early on. Regardless of how Luo Cheng treated her, it mattered not. She already didn’t view him as a father.

Thinking of the mother who passed away, Luo Qing Luan inevitably thought of Nanny Song’s miserable death.

Her gaze hardened as Luo Qing Luan narrowed her eyes slightly. The corners of her mouth curved into a chilly smiling expression.

Then fine. Even though she didn’t want to marry Nalan Ye at all, since there was already no way to change it, she’s going to properly make use of her current status. The future Princess of Chu? Heh heh, she truly wanted to know, if after she formally married Nalan Ye one day and became the Princess of Chu, would Wang Xue Ru still dare to flaunt her airs as Father’s concubine in her presence? Would she still dare to carry out those malicious schemes?

Thinking of this, Luo Qing Luan smiled faintly, then glanced at Dai Yue. “Go. Dai Yue, follow me to Graceful Orchid Courtyard.”

Dai Yue was a bit astonished. “You can just instruct me if there’s something you need. Don’t you hate seeing the side madam the most?”

“But right now, I’d like to see Father’s Concubine very much.” Once the corners of her mouth curved up, she then rustled away.

Passing through the moongate at the end of the winding walkway, just when Luo Qing Luan reached Graceful Orchids Courtyard, she heard Wang Xue Ru lecturing a servant girl.

It was unknown what she was so angry about, a young servant girl was kneeling on the ground. Apparently, she accidentally broke a teacup, and Wang Xue Ru had her kneel at length in punishment. Not only this, she even had the servant ruthlessly slap her own face while admitting her own mistake as well as swearing that she wouldn’t make the same mistake again in the future.

Wang Xue Ru was in a very bad mood. This servant girl clumsily went so far as to break her favorite set of white china depicting Phnom Penh. If it wasn’t for the fact that a grand happy occasion was coming soon to the General’s Mansion, forbidding any unpleasant matter from being carried out, she really would’ve directly beat this girl to death.

The servant girl kneeled on the girl, face swollen from slapping herself, weeping bitter tears, but she still didn’t dare to stop.

“Why is Father’s Concubine so angry?” Unexpectedly, Luo Qing Luan’s voice sounded. Her indifferent tone of voice seemed to hide a trace of joy. Wang Xue Ru was startled, following which gloominess attacked her.
