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 cri.”
Lu Jiang frowned. “Did he commit the sa cri as Mother and Third Sister?”
Lu Sheng nodded. “Sowhat.”
“Then... Can they still go ho?”
“I don’t know.”
Lu Sheng shook her head. She did not know what to tell the children either.
Lu Xin had beco tired from crying, and she quickly fell asleep.
Lu Ran said sothing to Lu Dahua, and when he ca 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 ca from outside the door.
He planned on venting out his frustration when he heard the guards yell, “Sir, Lord Chu, follow , please!”
Sir and Lord Chu?
Why did they co?
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 governnt 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 soone to keep an eye on the Lu Family. When he heard that they ca to the prison for a visit, he had imdiately rushed over.
He did not know why, but he wanted to confirm if Lu Sheng was the person he had t 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 co for Lu Sheng. Hence, when she and the rest walked out, his gaze landed on her.
Without the dirt on her face, her skin seed 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 ti.
Chu Sihan had seen many beauties before, but she was the first one that made him want to look at her a few more tis.
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 beca 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 amazent, he was scrutinizing her at the sa ti.
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 sothing to say to you, Miss Lu.”
