“Mili, I’ll have someone take you to rest in your room. I still have to wait for something,” Leng Youlan calmly instructed the next action for Mili.
“Got it, big sister.”
“Yan, take Mili to her room.”
“Yes.”
Mili looked at the person her big sister had ordered to guide her, feeling a bit embarrassed. However, the people around her big sister were surely trustworthy. She believed she wouldn’t tell others.
Leng Youlan looked at the departing two with a smile. Suddenly, she remembered something and called out loudly, “Mili, Luisan lives next to you. You can go see her!”
“Letting Mili, who was good at talking, go comfort Luisan seemed like a good idea.
“Oh, I know,” Mili said happily, not expecting Luisan to be here. But little did she know, she would end up being the one receiving comfort.
Leng Youlan checked the time. “Lian, tell the servants to bring me a cup of milk. Then, go to the main gate and fetch the package.”
“Yes, miss.” Youlan had gotten used to calling her “miss,” and the castle’s servants, who were unaware of Leng Youlan’s identity, naturally did the same. Leng Youlan was happy with this arrangement.
Leng Youlan drank her warm milk, confident that Youlan would return before she finished.
Youlan looked at the package in her hand, incredibly curious about this madam. Her conviction grew that this madam could be of great help to her.
“Miss, this is the package for you.”
Leng Youlan looked satisfiedly at the remaining half cup of milk and said calmly, “Put it here?”
“Yes.”
Leng Youlan slowly finished her milk, picked up the package, and headed to the study. “Lian, don’t let anyone disturb me.”
“Yes.”
Entering the study, Leng Youlan opened the package. A beautiful small cat doll appeared in the box. Leng Youlan gave a sweet smile, took out the doll, and explored its beautiful pleated dress. After a while, she discovered a small crack in one of the pleats.”
With a gentle hook of her finger, she retrieved a small note.
