But the real reason was different. When she learned about the woman taken away at the banquet, she was grateful to the woman who caused the scene. She wanted to kill the woman opposite her because her younger son had gone to find this woman.
What she found most unacceptable was that this woman actually suggested that if she personally came, she would send back the woman she hated. She would never give Luisan the chance to return to her son Telai. So she wanted to kill the woman who could bring Luisan back.
Leng Youlan looked at the silent woman and continued, “During Telai’s illness, I will send people to assist him in managing affairs. As for who I send, I believe Madam Leight is very clear. I hope you will treat her well, otherwise, I won’t be responsible for the consequences.”
Leng Youlan’s hand moved slightly, and Telai’s mother instinctively dodged to the side. Leng Youlan said playfully, “Don’t be nervous. I was just about to move my hand.”
The meeting ended with Leng Youlan’s complete victory. Leng Youlan led Shangguan Qushui and Ai Temin out of the building. Because the building was located in the most luxurious commercial street in France, and it was now the peak time after work, the area outside the building was particularly bustling.
Leng Youlan turned to look at the two people behind her and said calmly, “You two go back first. Today I’m going to return to the Isdale Castle.”
“Yes, big sister. Big sister, please take care of yourself!” Shangguan Qushui said with some worry.
“Big sister, take care.”
Qushui, let’s go,” Ai Temin wouldn’t say comforting words, but she knew big sister might prefer to be quiet now. But they didn’t know that their big sister’s return to Isdale Castle would not bring her peace.
“You go. Take good care of Chu Lie?” She was still worried about Chu Lie in her heart, but she knew he was not hers.
“Yes, big sister, we will.”
“Big sister, don’t worry! You can come and check anytime.”
The two, unaware of Leng Youlan’s inner thoughts, answered confidently, believing they would definitely satisfy their big sister.
“Also, when you go back, tell Luisan and Mili about my arrangements, but about today’s meeting, you must remember not to tell them anything…”
“And definitely don’t let them know the truth about your assassination. Big sister, you’ve said this 186 times already?” Strange, why had their big sister become so talkative today? Shangguan Qushui looked at her big sister with a puzzled gaze.
“Cough, cough.” Feeling the inquiring gazes of the two sisters beside her, Leng Youlan involuntarily coughed twice, trying to appear as calm as possible. “I’m just feeling emotional because Luisan and Mili might find happiness because of this.”
Hearing their big sister’s words, they also felt her reasoning made sense.
They too were emotional – after all, they all lacked warmth. Although the sisters were together, licking each other’s wounds, they all clearly knew this was just a temporary relief from pain. The wounds in each of their hearts would continue to bleed and hurt.
Seeing Shangguan Qushui and Ai Temin’s expressions, Leng Youlan knew she had inadvertently touched their painful memories, which made her even more sad. She secretly swore to remove all the pain from her sisters someday, at any cost.
She suppressed the surging emotions in her heart and said calmly, “Alright, go back now. It’s time for dinner. Don’t starve yourselves. Otherwise, I’ll punish you.”
Shang Guan Xu Shui and Ai Te Min forcibly held back the tears welling up in their eyes, saying, “Big Sister, we’re going back.”
“Big Sister, you should eat more too. You seem to have lost weight again.”
Although their big sister always spoke in a calm tone, the deep concern hidden in her seemingly tranquil voice would always bring them to the brink of tears.
Watching her beloved sisters leave with tears in their eyes, Leng You Lan felt an indescribable ache in her heart. She slowly stood to the side, leaning against the wall and watching the hurried passersby on the street.
She knew that each of them, after a long day of work, was now rushing home eagerly. If each lamp represented a home, then what about her? Where was her home? She didn’t know, and she was even less certain whether the home Lei Tian Yi spoke of truly belonged to her, or for how long.
She gave a self-deprecating smile, gently caressing her still-flat abdomen, and whispered, “Baby, will you give Mommy a home?” She didn’t know if the baby would hear her, nor did she know the baby’s response. But she knew she at least had a reason to hope. Therefore, she would hope, long for, and wait for a truly her own home, a home with real family.
“Sister Leng, what are you doing here?” Her excited voice rang out in the night sky.
Hearing the voice, Leng You Lan calmly raised her head and saw the cute little girl from the conference room looking at her excitedly. She said calmly, “I’m waiting for you.” Yes, she had known all along that this girl would come looking for her, so she waited here.
“Waiting for me?

Leng You Lan nodded calmly and continued, “Let’s go home.” She walked directly towards Clair’s prepared car; she needed to return to the castle quickly, or Lei Tian Yi might come to fetch her himself.
“Hey, Sister Leng, wait for me!” The cute little girl called out while hurriedly chasing after the departing Leng You Lan.
Hearing the car door close, Leng You Lan said, “Drive.”
“I knew it was you before telling them to drive,” Leng You Lan explained calmly, hearing the complaint in the other’s voice.
“You knew it was me?” the cute little girl said in surprise.
“Mm.” Leng You Lan nodded calmly.
“I believe you, but you must guarantee she is unharmed.” If she wanted to know, of course she could know. She did not want her sister to suffer because of this.
A cold smile flashed in Leng Youlan’s agile eyes. Those who could capture Shang Guan Xushui were certainly not ordinary people.
Those who might be arrogant here probably hadn’t even been born yet? She would make them understand.
“Okay, please come to Italy tomorrow for the appointment, Miss Leng. When you arrive, we will naturally arrange for someone to receive you.”
“Fine. I will come tomorrow.” Leng Youlan hung up the phone, a cold smile playing at the corner of her mouth. She turned and saw Lou Shuyu looking at her curiously.
She immediately said calmly, “It’s nothing, just a small matter that needs handling.”
“Oh, Xiao Yu knows that Cold Sister and Brother Lei are people who kill without blinking.” Lou Shuyu said with an innocent face.
“Are you afraid of your Brother Lei?” Leng Youlan could not imagine the person beside her would think this way.
“Not at all! I’m not afraid of you either. Because you are good people, you only kill bad people.”
“Why did you come here?” This was the question Leng Youlan had always wanted to ask.
“Because you stole my fiancé!” Lou Shuyu said carelessly, unaware of the huge waves this sentence stirred in the other’s heart.
Hearing the words of the cute little girl beside her, Leng Youlan’s heart suddenly trembled. She forced herself to calm down.
She said calmly, “Do you like him?”
“Him? Do you mean Brother Lei?” Seeing Leng Youlan nod, she continued, “Of course I like him!”
Hearing this, Leng Youlan fell into despair. She decided she must leave Lei Tianyi to avoid destroying someone else’s happiness.
Her mother’s happiness had been ruined by a vicious woman. How could she allow herself to become that? She only wanted revenge, a simple life, and a happy family.
Leng Youlan felt like she was in the midst of coldness, her face pale. She moved her feet with difficulty, unsure of Lei Tianyi’s threat. His voice was so cold that it made her heart palpitate.
Seeing her pale face, Lei Tianyi’s heart ached. He feared she would collapse.
