As night falls, the Zhenxing Marquis Mansion is brightly lit.

Lu Yundi sat alone in front of the window, looking at the night outside, her heart full of thoughts. Luluo quietly walked to her side, put a piece of clothing on her, and said softly: "Madam, it's late at night, you should go to bed early."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, patted Luoluo's hand gently, and said: "Luluo, I know you are worried about me, but I want to tell you that I am not in pain. Because I believe that Ji Lian will come back."

Luoluo looked at Lu Yundi, with a hint of determination in her eyes. She gently held the lady's hand and said, "Madam, I will always be by your side to protect this belief for you."

The night grew darker, and the lights in the Zhenxing Marquis's mansion swayed in the night wind, reflecting Lu Yundi's pale face. Her eyes were firm and slightly sad. Luluo's words were like a spring breeze blowing across the frozen lake, causing ripples in her heart.

"Luoluo, I understand your intentions. But you must remember that as people from the Marquis' Mansion, we must not only protect the Marquis's peace, but also maintain the harmony of the entire mansion." Lu Yundi said softly, with unquestionable firmness in his voice.

Luoluo nodded, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes: "Madam, I understand. I will do my best to contribute to the harmony of the Marquis' Mansion."

Nanny Hu was standing by, listening to their conversation, feeling a lot of emotions in her heart.

Lu Yundi's suffering cannot be explained in just a few words. She sighed and said, "Madam, your broad-mindedness is something that all of us should learn from. I hope the Marquis can understand your deep love for him soon."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly and waved her hand gently: "Mammy, please stop talking. I know Ji Lian's character best. He is a man with his own ideas. I believe he will make his own choice."

......

Jiang Jilian hugged Ye Wanxue, feeling extremely distressed. He sighed and said, "This can't be blamed on Lu Yundi. Li Li is grown up now and has her own ideas."

As soon as Jiang Jilian finished speaking, a trace of sadness flashed across Ye Wanxue's eyes. She gently pushed Jiang Jilian's arms away and whispered, "My Lord, I know what you are thinking. Although there is a misunderstanding between the Madam and me, it is ultimately a family matter. I don't want to see you upset because of this."

Jiang Jilian looked at Ye Wanxue with complicated emotions in his eyes. He gently held her hand and said, "Wanxue, I know you are a sensible woman, but... sometimes, I find it hard to give up this feeling."

Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, trying to hide the bitterness in her heart. She said softly, "My Lord, don't worry. I will behave myself and will not let the people in the mansion look down on me."

The two were silent for a moment, Jiang Jilian sighed and said, "Actually, I've always felt that I owe you something."

Jiang Jilian's face was a little heavy. He gently stroked Ye Wanxue's hair and said, "Wanxue, I know the pain in your heart. I will try my best to make it up to you and let you live a happy life."

A trace of gratitude flashed in Ye Wanxue's eyes. She snuggled in Jiang Jilian's arms and said softly, "My Lord, I know you have tried your best. But, how will the lady in the mansion and Miss Li Li view us?"

Jiang Jilian frowned and was silent for a while, then said, "Madam is an understanding person, she knows how I feel about you. As for Li Li, she is older and has her own ideas, but I will try my best to convince her."

Ye Wanxue sighed softly and said, "My Lord, I don't want to embarrass you. If one day you feel it is necessary to give up me for the sake of family harmony, I will accept it."

Jiang Jilian's expression turned serious. He held Ye Wanxue's hand tightly and said, "Wanxue, you make me feel even more guilty. I swear to you that I will never give up on you unless you leave voluntarily."

A touch of emotion flashed in Ye Wanxue's eyes. She hugged Jiang Jilian tightly, tears sliding down her cheeks.

Jiang Jilian felt Ye Wanxue's trembling and felt more pity for her. He held her gently in his arms, patted her back gently, and comforted her softly: "Wanxue, don't be afraid, I will protect you and won't let anyone hurt you."

Ye Wanxue raised her head and looked at Jiang Jilian, her eyes full of dependence and tenderness. She whispered, "My Lord, I know that this mansion is not peaceful, but as long as you are here, I have someone to rely on."

The night in Zhenxing Marquis's Mansion gradually deepened, and the dim candlelight reflected on the intertwined figures of the two people, which seemed particularly warm. In this quiet night, the feelings of Jiang Jilian and Ye Wanxue were like a pool of spring water, without any ripples.

Ye Wanxue snuggled in Jiang Jilian's arms. Although she still had some worries in her heart, she felt more at ease. She spoke softly, her voice a little hoarse: "My Lord, you are right. Things in the mansion are indeed complicated. But I believe that as long as we support each other, we can always get through the difficulties."

Jiang Jilian nodded gently. He knew Ye Wanxue's intelligence and tenacity, and he was more determined to protect her. He whispered, "Wanxue, I have an idea. I wonder if you are willing to listen to it."

Ye Wanxue raised her head, her eyes full of expectation: "My Lord, please tell me, I am willing to listen to any of your ideas."

Jiang Jilian hesitated for a moment and said, "I think we can try to communicate with Madam and see if we can find a solution that satisfies both sides. After all, harmony in the mansion is good for all of us."

Ye Wanxue smiled slightly. This was a difficult decision, but for Jiang Jilian, she was willing to try. She whispered, "My Lord, I am willing to cooperate with you. As long as we can live a peaceful life, I am willing to do anything."

Jiang Jilian's eyes flashed with gratitude. He held Ye Wanxue's hand tightly and said, "Wanxue, you are a good woman. I will let you live a happy life. This is my only promise to you."

In the night, the two smiled at each other, as if they had already seen the beauty of the future.

......

Sitting at the same table with Chu Qirui again, Lu Yundi couldn't help feeling a little curious.

What exactly is he planning in Zhenxing Marquis Mansion?

A trace of determination flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes. She took a sip of tea and then slowly said, "Young Marquis Chu, you may not know that my understanding of Zhenxing Marquisate is far less superficial than you think. And the answer you want to know may be hidden in it."

Chu Qirui was slightly stunned, and a trace of inquiry flashed in his eyes, as if he was trying to see through Lu Yundi's mind. He was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Madam, since you said so, I might as well speak frankly. I do have some plans for Zhenxing Marquis Mansion, but this plan is not out of selfishness."

A hint of curiosity flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes. She leaned slightly closer to Chu Qirui and asked softly, "What is the reason that makes you so interested in Zhenxing Marquis Mansion?"
