Lu Ningshuang stood in the center of the ancestral hall, her thin figure as a willow tree in spring.

The plain white skirt was stained with mud, and the blood from the neck and lips dripped onto the wet clothes, blurring out beautiful crabapple flowers.

The beautiful face had a sickly look, cold sweat oozed out of the pores, and despite the pain that numbed her whole body, the corners of her delicate lips involuntarily lifted up.

Looking at the heroine curled up in the corner, Lu Ningshuang hummed a little tune in a wonderful mood, floating into the heavy rain like a fallen leaf.

"The deep sea

Full of moonlight

Cold sea breeze

Where are you pushing me?

I held my breath

But I can't find any evidence

To prove that you have feelings for me..."

Lu Ningshuang liked this song very much, just as it described -

Her whole life seemed to be sealed in the deep sea. Through the pouring moonlight, she observed the various people and scenery outside.

No one can reach the deep sea and touch her, no one can enter her heart.

Even Lu Jin, who had been with her for ten years.

She stayed alone in a quiet corner of the underwater world, watching all living creatures with a smile.

Now, the heroine Lu Yingxue is the object of her ridicule.

What a good opportunity! She could get rid of her enemy with just a little effort, but who would have thought that the reborn heroine would be so soft-hearted.

She was soft-hearted just because of a few seemingly surrendering words from her, and failed to see that it was exactly the retreat to advance that she had guessed.

She was genuinely laughing at Lu Yingxue for not being cruel enough.

There is only one result of letting her leave the ancestral hall, Lu Yingxue will pay the price for it.

We are life and death enemies, either you die or I live!

After stepping down the last step in front of the ancestral hall gate, Lu Ningshuang looked up at the dark sky.

She loosened her hand holding the umbrella, raised her injured neck, and the cold raindrops hit her face and wounds without mercy.

Extreme cold is heat, and pain that leads to numbness is itching.

She fluttered her eyelashes and subconsciously narrowed her eyes, savoring the torture.

This time, she won the game with the heroine.

“I dare not mention it again.

Those memories of us..."

The depressing and lonely song turned into an ethereal tone and was hummed by the girl.

She opened her arms wildly, and all the sounds in the heavy rain became her accompaniment.

"Second Miss, what are you doing?"

The Lu family guards who unexpectedly appeared nearby rushed over when they saw the second young lady, who was pampered by everyone in the mansion, ruining her body in the rain.

He quickly picked up the umbrella that had fallen on the ground, held it over the girl's head, frowned, and asked solemnly:

"Second Miss, why are you here so late? Where is your maid?"

A cold and low voice came into my ears along with the sound of rain.

Lu Ningshuang, who was immersed in her own world, opened her eyelids and took in the appearance of the nosy guy.

The man was over eight feet tall, and his black uniform was tight on his body, outlining his thin shoulders, slender waist, and long, straight legs.

Just like the cool black bamboo.

What surprised Lu Ningshuang the most was his appearance, with high brow bones, straight nose, and fine lines as if they were carved by a knife or an axe.

This alone is enough.

"Lu, Jin?"

Lu Ningshuang squeezed out two words from her lips with force, her voice trembling slightly.

It’s hard to say whether it’s love or hate, or the joy of reunion after a long separation.

The man tilted the umbrella towards her, exposing himself to the rain.

Hearing her cry, a dark look flashed in his eyes.

He pursed his lips and explained:

"Second Miss, my name is not Lu Jin."

After a pause, he continued, "My name is... Lu Yan."

A name you picked yourself.

Lu Ningshuang looked at the person in front of her carefully.

Lu Jinru is a modest, elegant and dignified gentleman. His deep eyes are always smiling and he exudes the confidence of being able to plan and strategize.

The man in front of him was a little thin, taciturn and honest, with black eyes as bright as stars, and looked a little dull.

Not that shrewd fox at all.

“That’s really not the case…”

Lu Ningshuang murmured sadly, she thought that guy came with her out of guilt.

But if Lu Jin really felt guilty, he would no longer be himself.

They are the same kind of people. At this moment, he can only shake his wine glass with great interest and overlook the business empire in the night through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor of the group.

Maybe when you feel lonely, you will sigh:

"My poor young lady, are you doing well down there?"

Lu Yan was stung by her disappointment and said in a muffled voice:

"Second Miss, I will take you back."

Lu Ningshuang was not someone who could be controlled. Upon hearing this, she pinched the man's jaw with a playful smile.

He tried to dodge, but failed.

"Second Miss!" The man said in a serious and businesslike tone, "I will take you back right away!"

Lu Ningshuang is a lunatic. She can do anything to survive, and she can also disregard life and death for momentary pleasure.

Just because life is boring and painful.

Even though her body was numb from the pain, her limbs felt heavy as if they were filled with lead, and her brain was about to be burned into paste, she still hung her whole body weight on the man and asked with interest:

"What's your name?"

Of course she heard his name was Lu Yan, and she also knew that he was the beggar who was rescued by the original owner out of kindness when she was a child, and another great general by the side of the future male protagonist.

Lu Yan tensed up instantly as he felt the girl's soft and fragrant body in his arms. He lowered his voice and repeated, looking into the girl's blurred eyes:

"My name is Lu Yan."

He stared at the girl's face with an expectation that could not be told to outsiders.

Lu Ningshuang suddenly realized something and laughed, followed by a cough and said disparagingly:

"Lu Yan? Isn't that the little beggar that I picked up back then? Ahem, haha, didn't I say that you are not allowed to appear in front of me?"

Lu Yan lowered his eyes and responded in a hoarse voice.

He still remembered that she had driven him away because he was too dull and she thought he was uninteresting.

In gratitude for her life-saving grace, he always regarded her words as golden rules.

Even though they lived in the same mansion, he had never appeared in front of her in all these years.

This time it was accidental.

"I will send you back first."

Lu Yan carried the person on his back and used one hand to hold the umbrella.

He was really thin, his back was not broad enough, and he walked without saying a word, very quietly.

It can be imagined that life in the Lu Mansion was not easy, especially after the second lady of the Lu family hated his words.

Lu Ningshuang leaned on his shoulder and suddenly said:

"Since I picked you up, how about you be my dog?"

He really looks like a Chinese native dog.

As a villain, how could he allow the protagonists to develop?

"Lu Yan, I'll let you be my dog."

The honorable second lady of the Lu family emphasized it again.

Before Lu Ningshuang fell into coma, the man hummed with no emotion.
