Her long, slender eyebrows slightly furrowed. She didn’t like feeling this way. She shook her head forcefully, trying to dispel the unusual emotion. With a sweet smile, she spoke to the birds outside, “I’ll go out and explore today.”
Leng Youlan still wore large black-framed glasses, but instead of casual clothing, she was now dressed in a world-famous fashion brand, Chanel. She wore a simple white dress that added a touch of refinement. After checking herself in the mirror, she turned to go downstairs.
Leng Youlan walked on the Champs-Élysées, known as the most beautiful street in the world, watching the endless stream of people and thinking that she must open the largest clothing store here.
Today, Leng Youlan had come out alone. Xue was staying at the castle to take care of Luisan, Yan was accompanying Mili on an errand, and Youlian had been sent away by Chong. Considering Chong’s sudden responsibility for French affairs, she felt it must be difficult for him. But he shouldn’t be busy for too long, right? Yi should be sending someone to take over soon. After all, what could be hidden from Emperor Ying?
Her thoughts reaching this point, Leng Youlan gave a bitter smile, wondering if her every move was already under his watchful eye. She felt conflicted, yearning for Lei Tianyi’s warm embrace while also hoping he would let her go.
“Sorry,” a panicked-looking man bumped into the somewhat distracted Leng Youlan.
“Stop!” A handsome man quickly grabbed the man who had bumped into Leng Youlan.
“Miss, this man stole your bag,” the handsome man said, holding the thief in front of Leng Youlan.
“Oh, thank you,” Leng Youlan had already noticed her bag was stolen. However, she had no intention of chasing after him. For the baby’s sake, she wouldn’t easily take action. But she wouldn’t let the thief off either. She had originally planned to tell Chong to send someone to retrieve the bag, and now someone had done it for her.
Taking the bag from the handsome man, Leng Youlan turned to leave.
The handsome man, seeing her about to leave, anxiously asked, “Miss, are you just going to leave like this?”
“Is there something else?” Leng Youlan asked calmly.
The handsome man, feeling awkward, stammered, “I was wondering – what about this thief?”
