Chapter 438 Returning
Lu Shian stopped talking.
Yes, he is the crown prince, the emperor's most beloved son, and the crown prince candidate supported by everyone. There is no need for him to make such a deal with himself.
"Have you ever thought that I am attracted to you?"
Lu Shian got down from the hammock in fear. She turned to look at Li Hongting. The light from the lantern shone on Li Hongting's face, and Lu Shian was in a trance for a while.
Li Hongting smiled bitterly again: "As expected, you never thought that I would be attracted to you, right?"
Lu Shian was struck by lightning, and his thoughts suddenly became extremely clear at this moment.
She knew that it was Li Hongting who personally proposed to her.
He also knew that Li Hongting would go to great lengths to send things to him.
Everyone can see Li Hongting's preference for her, except her. Only she can't see it.
Because in her eyes, there is only Shen Cuo...
Yes, Shen Cuo occupied her entire heart, how could she see anyone else?
In fact, Li Hongting has been taking good care of himself since a long time ago.
The house I bought when I first came to Anjing was a farm in the eastern suburbs outside the city.
He also took me to see the Queen Mother, and every time...
Her purpose was so obvious, but he never said it. He just quietly brought her to the Queen Mother...
Lu Shian asked in a low voice: "Why?"
Li Hongting chuckled: "There's no reason for liking someone. I just like you and want to do more for you."
Lu Shian didn't dare to look into Li Hongting's eyes for a moment.
Li Hongting was not in her range of possible partners.
It's not just his status and position, but also his temper.
He always gives people the feeling that he is so high and mighty, out of reach.
He just glanced at you coldly, and Lu Shian would surrender, and that kind of surrender made Lu Shian hate it.
She didn't understand why Li Hongting, who was not that old, could give people such an oppressive feeling. She didn't understand why she was so afraid of him.
Li Hongting looked at Lu Shian and said, "Now you and I are truly husband and wife. So I want to ask for a chance to stay with you forever. Are you willing to give it to me?"
Li Hongting's gaze was so scorching that Lu Shian had to look towards him.
But now she is in a state of confusion.
"I, I don't know."
"It doesn't matter. We still have a lot of time. Think about it carefully. I am willing to wait. I believe that you will choose to stay with me in the end."
After saying this, Li Hongting left alone.
The servants wanted to leave with Li Hongting, but Li Hongting signaled them to accompany Lu Shian.
Li Hongting really gave Lu Shian enough time. Even on the third day when it was time to go back home, Li Hongting did not show up.
Lu'er had already loaded the things for returning home into the carriage. Seeing Lu Shi'an scribbling something on a piece of paper with a pen, she sighed and shook her head.
She is Shen Cuo's person, so of course she hopes that Lu Shian can be with Shen Cuo.
But now Lu Shian is married, so she hopes Lu Shian can be happy.
Lu'er came to Lu Shian and called softly, "Miss, it's time to go home."
Lu Shian took a deep breath and said, "Let's go."
When they reached the gate of the Prince's Mansion, they saw Qin Jingzhi also preparing to return home.
"Hello, sister." Lu Shian saluted and said:
Qin Jingzhi smiled and nodded, motioning her to get up: "Have you prepared everything for the return trip?"
Lu Shian said: "It's almost ready."
Qin Jingzhi gestured to the maid beside her: "This is a little gift I prepared for you."
Lu'er took it and put it on the carriage.
Lu Shian felt a little embarrassed. Her mind had been in a mess these past two days and she had never thought about preparing gifts for Qin Jingzhi's family.
When Qin Jingzhi took out the gift at this moment, it seemed that she was a little ignorant of etiquette.
At this time, Lu'er took a brocade box from the carriage and came to Lu Shi'an: "Miss, this is what you prepared for the Crown Princess. Is it now..."
"Ah, oh, yes, give it to the Crown Princess."
Qin Jingzhi smiled and asked her personal maid to take it.
The two said goodbye and each took a carriage to their own parents' home.
At the gate of the marquis's mansion, the wife of Marquis Yongkang and other female relatives were already waiting at the door.
Seeing the carriage coming from afar, the servants shouted excitedly: "It's the eldest lady, the eldest lady is back."
Except for Yu Xiuying who was so excited that she almost cried, the others also tried to save face very well. If you didn't know, you would think they had a deep relationship.
The carriage stopped steadily. Lu Xianchun adjusted his mood in the carriage and forced a smile on his face. Then he was helped out of the carriage by the maid.
Zi Yuan clapped her hands happily and called out: "Big sister, it's big sister..."
Yu Xiuying hurried over and said, "Xianchun, is the son-in-law here?"
As he spoke he leaned forward and looked into the carriage.
Lu Xianchun dragged Yu Xiuying to the mansion and said, "Mother, look at you. You forgot that he was going there today. He said that he would come to apologize to you in person in a few days."
"Hey, isn't this a confused joy?"
Lu Xianchun came to the wife of Marquis Yongkang and bowed to her and greeted her.
Madam Yongkang nodded: "Well, good granddaughter, come in quickly."
Seeing that everyone was still looking outside, Lu Xianchun knew that Lu Shian had not arrived yet: "Shian hasn't arrived yet?"
Yu Xiuying said: "Not yet, but I guess it will be soon."
"Then wait, let's go back together."
Before he could finish his words, he saw a carriage stopped at the gate of the mansion. Who else could it be but Lu Shian?
The carriage stopped, and Lu Shian did the same thing as Lu Xianchun. After calming herself down, she got off the carriage with a smile.
"Second sister, second sister, eldest sister, it's the second sister who is back."
The little girl danced with joy and ran to Lu Shian with her short legs.
"Ziyuan, do you miss your second sister?"
"Want to? Why can't we live together after my second sister gets married? Can't you tell your brother-in-law to come and live with us?"
The little girl's innocent words made everyone cover their mouths and laugh.
Lu Shian tapped her little nose and said, "You, how come you are so smart."
"Mom, big sister."
"Ten An."
After the two of them arrived, the wife of Yongkang Marquis spoke up, "Don't stand at the door, go in first."
A group of people entered the main hall in a mighty procession. It was the first time that Lu Shian and Lu Xianchun met all the female members of the Marquis' Mansion.
The concubines of those marquises were younger than the wife of Marquis Yongkang.
After everyone chatted for a while, the wife of Marquis Yongkang made an excuse to go back to rest and let the three of them, mother and daughter, talk.
The three of them entered Tingfeng Garden.
Yu Xiuying quickly pulled her two daughters aside and asked them how they were doing over there.
The two said in unison: "Of course it is good."
Yu Xiuying stared at her two daughters sharply: "Are you serious?"
Lu Xianchun said calmly, "Of course."
"Then tell me why Zhinian didn't come with us?"
Lu Xianchun had already thought of an excuse: "I wanted to bring him along, but mother-in-law thought that since this was my first visit, I would have to have a good talk with you guys, so she didn't let me bring him along.
