Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

Chapter 25 - Meet Again

Lu Sheng asked the jailer to help them open the door. However, she did not enter and only let Lu Ran go in.

"Second Sister, why is Father here too?"

Lu Jiang did not understand.

He had witnessed his mother and his third sister being captured, but his father was still with them the previous day.

"He's here because he committed an unforgivable crime."

Lu Jiang frowned. "Did he commit the same crime as Mother and Third Sister?"

Lu Sheng nodded. "Somewhat."

"Then… Can they still go home?"

"I don't know."

Lu Sheng shook her head. She did not know what to tell the children either.

Lu Xin had become tired from crying, and she quickly fell asleep.

Lu Ran said something to Lu Dahua, and when he came out, his eyes had turned red.

Hugging Lu Xin, who had already fallen asleep, he left the prison with Lu Sheng and Lu Jiang without even turning back.

The jailer kept staring at Lu Sheng, and he was just about to get close to her when a noise came from outside the door.

He planned on venting out his frustration when he heard the guards yell, "Sir, Lord Chu, follow me, please!"

Sir and Lord Chu?

Why did they come?

Although he did not understand the reason the two were here, the jailer brushed past Lu Sheng and the rest to greet them.

Holding Lu Jiang's hand, Lu Sheng peered over and saw two familiar faces standing outside the prison.

One was the young man, whom she helped last night.

The other was a middle-aged man wearing a government official's robe, who stood beside the first man. It was obvious that he acted very respectfully toward the young man.

It seems like his identity is not so simple.

Chu Sihan had asked someone to keep an eye on the Lu Family. When he heard that they came to the prison for a visit, he had immediately rushed over.

He did not know why, but he wanted to confirm if Lu Sheng was the person he had met last night.

Standing at the entrance, he peered in, and an inexplicable sense of anticipation rose in his heart.

Chu Yun stood behind him, but he did not understand.

Why was his Lord being so concerned about a village girl?

Since the way ahead was blocked, Lu Ran did not know whether to continue walking.

However, when he saw how Lu Sheng calmly strode forward, he could only follow her.

Chu Sihan had come for Lu Sheng. Hence, when she and the rest walked out, his gaze landed on her.

Without the dirt on her face, her skin seemed smooth and white, while her eyes were as clear as usual.

And her face… Although she was not an absolute beauty, she would be considered an exceptional beauty.

Furthermore, her beauty was not commonplace and forgettable. It was the sort of beauty that would compel one to double back and glance at her a second time.

Chu Sihan had seen many beauties before, but she was the first one that made him want to look at her a few more times.

After seeing Lu Sheng's face, Chu Yun was also stunned.

He couldn't accept that the beautiful woman in front of him was the disheveled beggar from two days ago.

The county magistrate glanced at Lu Sheng, then back at Chu Sihan as he frowned.

However, his expression returned to being normal.

He walked forward and asked, "You must be from the Lu Family, right?"

"Yes!"

Facing the county magistrate, Lu Ran became more restrained and formal.

Lu Sheng's gaze landed on Chu Sihan's face. However, she realized that he was also looking at her.

Although his gaze contained surprise and amazement, he was scrutinizing her at the same time.

She smiled at him. Unlike the bright smile she displayed earlier, this one was more teasing.

Chu Sihan did not know if it was because of his own state of mind, but he kept feeling that this girl's smile was trying to provoke him.

He kept staring at her as he expressionlessly said, "I have something to say to you, Miss Lu."
