Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 682 You're such a simpleton

We finally made it through this hurdle without any major incidents.

Although the Emperor may not completely believe Chu Yueli's words, his two sons testified for her, so it was not up to him to disbelieve her.

Moreover, this matter itself is not honorable, and if it were to be investigated, it would likely cause a huge uproar.

He dared not investigate.

Chu Yueli and Lu Yunfei left first, while Lu Fengjin was left behind.

Chu Yueli knew it must be related to the intrusion of the manufacturing workshop by thieves, but she pretended not to understand and left with Lu Yunfei first.

"Why did he testify for you?" As soon as he returned to the Mo Prince's Mansion, Lu Yunfei glared at Chu Yueli and sneered, "You still have contact with him?"

“He is your fifth brother, and also my fifth brother. Why can’t we have contact?” Chu Yueli raised an eyebrow.

“He used to be with you…” But Lu Yunfei didn’t finish his sentence, feeling somewhat unhappy.

Chu Yueli laughed and said, "The past is the past, and things from the past are long gone. But why did you rush here to save me? Weren't you very angry last night?"

Lu Yunfei glared at her: "Do you care whether I'm angry or not?"

"Of course I do."

Lu Yunfei's mood inexplicably improved: "Do you really care?"

“We’re family, why don’t you care? It’s you who’s always getting angry with me and treating me badly.”

"You want to go back to the Duke's mansion again?" Lu Yunfei is actually a very simple person. He says whatever comes to mind and is not afraid of others knowing what he is thinking.

"I... I didn't mean to get angry with you, it's just... never mind, it's all in the past."

If he's unhappy about something, he can go back and process it himself; there's no need to bring it up again.

She's alright, it's good that she came back safely.

"Don't go to that place again," Lu Yunfei warned.

Chu Yueli remained silent; she couldn't just say something she couldn't agree to.

I'd rather not say it.

Lu Yunfei could tell from her appearance that she would still go.

"Those are Father's things!" How could she possibly interfere in the Emperor's affairs?

Going to that place again would be extremely dangerous.

Although he wasn't particularly shrewd, he wasn't entirely without his own thoughts.

The fact that his father was so serious about getting to the bottom of things today told him that the place was definitely important to his father.

She went to investigate regardless of the consequences, and if her father found out, he might not let her off the hook.

"Do you realize how serious this matter is?" Lu Yunfei asked in a deep voice.

Chu Yueli glanced at him and suddenly laughed: "Even a simpleton like you knows the matter is serious, how could I not know?"

"You..." This wicked woman, all she knows how to do is bully him!

Who's this idiot again?! Do they think he's not smart enough or what?

"In short, you can't go again..." But she didn't seem like the type to listen to reason.

Lu Yunfei was both angry and helpless. In the end, he could only compromise: "If you... if you insist on going, then take me with you."

"We'll see." Chu Yueli, with her sharp eyes, spotted Jing Lei's figure in the distance.

She smiled at Lu Yunfei: "I still have some things to take care of. If you don't have anything else, go back and catch up on your sleep. You didn't sleep a wink last night, aren't you tired?"

Reminded by her, Lu Yunfei indeed yawned, feeling sleepy.

but……

"Didn't you also stay up all night? What else do you have to deal with?" This woman is just like the Fourth Prince; when they get busy, they're fearless.

"Go and rest. I'll handle anything that comes up!"
