Chapter 95 Excessive Confidence

Chapter 95 Excessive Confidence

A person like Li Wenxun has always been friendly to those who might help him.

Lu Lingyun's status is high, so there's no shortage of formalities.

"You know she's my sister!" Lu Hanyi snorted coldly. "She's not your sister. You're always so close to her; I thought you had some ulterior motives!"

To speak the truth, Lu Hanyi felt guilty.

She had taken over Lu Lingyun's marriage and couldn't help but worry if there might be some hidden connection between them.

Therefore, she didn't like Lu Lingyun getting involved in her family matters.

Even when Li Wenxun hinted several times that she should seek Lu Lingyun's help for his official position, she refused to do so.

She feared something might happen between them behind her back.

After she said this, Li Wenxun's face darkened instantly. "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Hmph, every time you see her, you rush over. Who is your wife, me or her?"

"Shut up!" Li Wenxun sternly reprimanded Lu Hanyi, his usually gentle face now long and stern.

"You're even scolding me..."

"Enough!" At this moment, Lu Lingyun spoke coldly. "Hanyi, it's fine if you say some nonsense at home, but today is Wenxun's important day for the Spring Examination. Why are you causing trouble!"

Lu Lingyun's rebuke was highly effective.

It immediately silenced Lu Hanyi.

Today was Li Wenxun's crucial examination day. She couldn't afford to quarrel with him, act out, or cause any trouble.

She softened her stance. "I misspoke just now. Wenxun, don't take it to heart."

"Hmph!" Li Wenxun gave her a cold look, took something from a servant, and strode towards the entrance of the Examination Hall.

Lu Hanyi thought for a moment and then chased after him. "Do well on the exam, and you'll definitely become the top scholar!"

Li Wenxun's face grew even longer.

He truly realized that the wife he had married was incredibly foolish!

And full of delusions!

Watching Li Wenxun pass through the checkpoint without looking back and enter the Examination Hall, Lu Hanyi's face showed a hint of dissatisfaction and resentment.

Why hadn't she noticed Li Wenxun being like this in her previous life? When he was with Lu Lingyun, he seemed particularly gentle and considerate.

Why did he turn into such an annoying person with her?

But as soon as she turned around and saw Lu Lingyun and Wang Qiluo still there, Lu Hanyi straightened her back.

"Hmph! Li Wenxun will definitely become the top scholar, and I'll be the scholar's wife! Your good days are over; wait and see how I'll rise!"

Lu Lingyun: "..."

Wang Qiluo: "..."

After saying this, Lu Hanyi, supported by her maids, climbed into the carriage with her swollen belly, full of arrogance and anticipation.

Li Wenxun had gone to take the imperial examination and would soon become the top scholar. She was about to start her glorious new life!

The scholar's wife!

That would definitely catch everyone's attention.

At that time, what would Lu Lingyun be? Just a fleeting glory.

She had taken Lu Lingyun's fortune and would live her own good life, stepping on her and watching her rise step by step!

Her rise was coming!

"That sister of yours seems strange," Wang Qiluo said, linking arms with Lu Lingyun after Lu Hanyi left.

"How so?"

"Being confident in one's husband is good, but excessive confidence borders on madness." Wang Qiluo remarked.

Lu Lingyun chuckled.

Returning from the Examination Hall, the mansion was calm and peaceful.

Lu Lingyun inquired about the affairs in the various courtyards and learned that Cheng Yunshuo had taken Xing Dairong out for a trip today. After carefully asking about their itinerary and confirming there was no danger, she returned to her courtyard to rest.

Cheng Yunshuo and Xing Dairong had a great time together.

They visited the streets and temples they had frequented before, reliving many memories.

This brought their relationship closer.

Hand in hand, they returned warmly, feeling a sense of reunion after enduring many storms.

They had quarreled and acted out countless times, but which couple doesn't go through similar experiences?

Their personalities had been smoothed out, and they found each other better than before.

"Yunshuo, let's go back to the flower street we visited before tomorrow."

"Sure, wherever you want to go, I'll accompany you."

Cheng Yunshuo helped Xing Dairong through the door.

As soon as they entered, a young maid approached, "Prince, you're finally back."

Huang Yue, now in new clothes, looked even more vibrant and delicate than when they first met.

Her watery eyes stared straight at Cheng Yunshuo, looking particularly harmless.

Seeing her, Xing Dairong frowned deeply, "What are you doing here?"

Huang Yue knelt down with a thud, "Aunt Xing, I came to see the Prince."

She acted as if Xing Dairong had forced her into this.

Xing Dairong felt a surge of anger, but beside her, Cheng Yunshuo said, "Alright, Dairong, don't be so harsh on her. Little Yue is timid."

Hearing this, Xing Dairong's anger only grew. If it were in the past, she would have confronted either Cheng Yunshuo or Huang Yue, but this time, she held back.

"Hmph!" Xing Dairong turned her head away in disgust.

"What are you doing here?" Cheng Yunshuo looked at Huang Yue and asked gently.

"I made a mistake," Huang Yue immediately lifted her innocent face, her watery eyes brimming with tears, "While cleaning your study, I accidentally dirtied some of your documents."

Hearing this, Cheng Yunshuo became instantly anxious, "How bad is it?"

"A lot of them got dirty. I hung them out to dry. You should go take a look," Huang Yue said, appearing both nervous and fragile.

Cheng Yunshuo, seeing this, couldn't afford to scold her and hurriedly headed towards his courtyard, "Come with me quickly."

Xing Dairong, seeing this, called out urgently, "Yunshuo!"

"Dairong, go back to the courtyard first. I'll join you later!"

Cheng Yunshuo didn't turn back.

Xing Dairong, seeing his demeanor, angrily flung her sleeves and followed him.

When she arrived at Yaoguang Pavilion, she saw scrolls spread out on the ground outside the study, many of which were stained with ink.

Huang Yue was still kneeling nearby.

After Cheng Yunshuo picked up each scroll, he sighed in relief, "Phew, fortunately, it's not too serious. You can get up now."

"Really no problem, Prince?"

"It's fine, just a few ink stains."

Perhaps because Huang Yue had initially sounded very serious, Cheng Yunshuo had been quite tense, but upon seeing that it was just a few ink spots, he relaxed and even felt a bit relieved.

Huang Yue, under his words, hesitantly stood up, "Prince, I will be more careful in the future and won't cause any more trouble for you."

"Alright, no one blames you. You can leave now." Cheng Yunshuo dismissed her lightly.

At this moment, Xing Dairong's voice rang out, "Yunshuo, is this how you treat a servant who has made a mistake!"
