Mu Rong Yuan did not dodge, but once the short blade pressed against his chest, it was difficult for Lu Zi Nuo to move forward even a little. After a long while, Lu Zi Nuo turned and pulled back. The short blade fell on the ground and actually produced sparks.

"Go on, I asked for your help in the first place. You've already helped me, and the result is that you won't be able to control it no matter what. I don't blame you, and I've even danced in the Reputation Dance. From now on, we owe each other nothing."

Mu Rong Yuan's eyes were filled with regret, but he had no excuse. It was true that An He Zhen was the official who requested for help, but he had gone to the Spirit Continent for other things. But for some reason, Elder An had actually won a spot for Lu Zi Nuo in the nativology. He had clearly asked for his help to convince Lu Qing Lin.

Quiet And Steadfast shouted, "Take care!" He could not stay any longer. He could only turn around and leave with a "Take care!"

Lu Zi Nuo tossed and turned, and it was difficult for him to sleep. Recalling the events that had transpired today, he couldn't help but blame himself for treating Mu Rong Yuan too well. The Second Sister was right. He meant well, just that he did not understand him.

The entrance exam for nativology was held in spring. She had originally planned to head to the capital after the Mid-Elemental Festival, so she would have to study properly during this period. However, with the current situation, the few sisters would immediately leave for the palace. She should also go with them.

In the end, they had to go to a foreign capital. Even though Lu Zi Nuo had always been bold, he didn't know how to deal with it in the future.

The names on the signboards of every person in Lu Mansion were all determined by himself, the eldest sister's "Bi You" was naturally a name, around it was a dug out pond, and inside it grew jade lotus points.

If he wanted to enter the room, he would need to use the Bamboo Bridge. Different from Lu Zi Nuo's green bamboo which was inside the bamboo house, Bi Gui was like an elder sister who was gentle like a painting, which made Lu Zi Nuo's heart calmer as he stepped onto the bamboo bridge, as if there was nothing in this world that could not be resolved.

The courtyard door was not locked yet, so Lu Zi Nuo entered and directly went to the dormitory that was still lit up by the light.

Knocking lightly on the door, he said in a warm voice, "Nore?" "Let's go in." The power of the prophet caused Lu Zi Nuo to jump, upon entering the door, he heard Lu Zi Yun laugh: "I think no one will come find me now, sit."

The room was lit up with sandalwood. Lu Zi Yun had never liked spices, and would only order a portion if she was troubled while reading a Buddhist scripture. Now that she was sitting in the hall, it was naturally the second type. She still had her makeup on, and though her eyebrows were furrowed, she was smiling.

"I just happened to have something to say to you, so you came."

Lu Zi Yun spoke with an extremely slow tone, as if she was weighing every single word, "There are some things that Father wants to say to you, but has never said it out loud, let me pass it on." Her tone of voice was still gentle and gentle as she placed her hand behind Lu Zi Nuo's back. Even though her fingertips were slightly cold, her palm was warm, and she used that little bit of warmth to give her youngest sister a peace of mind.

She reached her hands out to pour Lu Zi Nuo a cup of tea. The fragrance of the tea was dense, and continuously emitted heat, as though with the cover of the white smoke, the words that were about to leave her mouth were not so hard to say.

"Actually, all these years, we all knew that you were unhappy. Initially, it was to satisfy mother's long-cherished wish before her death, then it was to gag the clan's clansmen. However, in the end, the Lu family has let you down. Especially Zi Qian, I feel regret whenever I mention him. "

Lu Zi Nuo's gaze swept across his elder sister's face. He picked up the cup of cold tea on the table and switched his cup with a warm one. The fragrance of the tea had long since disappeared, and the only thing that remained was the bitterness. She finished the bitter tea in one gulp and raised his eyebrows, "It's all over. There's no need to look back. The hard thing is the present."

Lu Zi Nuo caught a glimpse of the elder sister's relieved expression and lowered her eyes. The elder sister's skirt was embroidered with complicated patterns that looked like a bunch of peach blossoms.

She suddenly thought of the sunny spring afternoon when she was a child. The breeze made the petals of the peaches rustle, and the sunlight that flowed down along the crisscrossing branches flowed past her fingertips and her heart. When they were young, Fourth Sister and Fifth Sister would often take her around to play with them, so Third Sister bought them some sweets from the house on the street. She was unwilling to eat them, so she held them tightly in her hands, and afterwards she would turn them into glistening yellow syrup. The sticky syrup would always rub on her face, and Eldest Sister would wipe them with her silk cloth.

Her sisters never cared whether she was a boy or not, nor did she have to worry whether she would become a boy at home. She could act coquettishly, she could cry, she did not have to endure all emotions, she did not have to remind herself every time she shed a tear that a man's tears did not fall easily.

Actually, it was not only her, she remembered when she still had the tender and lingering feelings for the cold-faced Second Sister. She had once liked a person and wholeheartedly wanted to be with him, but that person left without saying a word.

In the past, no one could be blamed for what had happened. It was just that she had been too persistent in the past.

That sentence of apology stuck in their throats. Neither of them managed to say it out loud, but they all laughed at the same time, saying in their hearts that it didn't matter.

Lu Zi Yun was silent for a moment, then suddenly let out a long sigh, causing her heart to tighten, and ache. Lu Zi Nuo wanted to speak, but she didn't know what she could say to comfort her. In the end, she pursed her lips and left.
