Chapter 225: Chapter 118: Don’t Let the Riches Flow into Others’ Fields! _1
 

Lu Miaohuan embraced Lu Changsheng for a moment before immediately snapping back to reality.

Only then did she remember she was in Lu Changsheng’s home.

And there were so many people watching.

Moreover, these people were all Lu Changsheng’s wives and concubines.

She had actually thrown herself into Lu Changsheng’s arms in front of his wives and concubines.

Even though Lu Miaohuan was usually bold and carefree, indifferent to others’ gazes, at that moment she couldn’t help but blush profusely, covering her face as she ran off.

“Uh…”

Lu Changsheng watched Lu Miaohuan hurry away, caught off guard.

Soon after, he shook his head and smiled wryly.

He also roughly understood what was going on.

She must have thought he was in grave danger when he went to lure away the Robber Cultivator.

Hearing of his safe return, she must have been so agitated to see him alive.

“Sister Miaoge, I’ve made you worry.”

At that moment, Lu Changsheng turned to look at not far away, at the eldest lady draped in white, surpassing the purity of snow, her figure slender and graceful, smiling as he spoke.

Since Lu Miaoge had come along with Lu Miaohuan, she must be aware of the Robber Cultivator incident and was worried about him as well.

“It’s good that you’re alright.”

Seeing Lu Changsheng unharmed, Lu Miaoge’s heart was filled with immense joy.

Yet, even with such happiness, in such a situation, she wouldn’t act like her sister Lu Miaohuan and throw herself at Lu Changsheng.

She just smiled softly and spoke in a gentle voice.

Her beautiful, unadorned face, as splendid as morning glow on snow, was exceptionally stunning.

Lu Miaoyun, Qu Zhenzhen, and the other women saw Lu Miaohuan embrace their husband and cover her face as she ran off.

Then, they saw their husband and the eldest lady smiling and talking to each other.

One gentle and genial, as if bathed in the spring breeze.

The other pure and ethereal, as elegant as an immortal.

Watching them, they felt an indescribable sense of perfect harmony.

“Since you’re alright, I’m relieved. I’ll go check on Huanhuan.”

Lu Miaoge didn’t stay for long.

With this situation, and Lu Changsheng’s many wives and concubines here, she felt quite uncomfortable and a bit out of place.

Especially in the presence of Lu Miaoyun, she felt a sense of guilt and inadequacy.

Typically, she hardly dared to meet Lu Miaoyun, and it was only because she was worried about Lu Changsheng that she had taken the initiative to come over.

“Sister Miaoge, let me walk you out.”

Lu Changsheng, seeing her reaction, quickly stepped forward and said.

Lu Miaoge intended to say it wasn’t necessary.

But seeing Lu Changsheng already walking over to her, she pursed her lips lightly and said nothing.

“Sister Miaoge, have you recovered?”

Lu Changsheng asked casually.

Initially, under his treatment, Lu Miaoge’s life had been stabilized, but her injuries were severe and she needed recuperation; she returned to recover.

“It’s almost completely healed.”

Lu Miaoge said softly.

“That’s good then.”

Lu Changsheng nodded.

There was a silence between them.

As they left the back courtyard and reached the front courtyard, Lu Changsheng grasped Lu Miaoge’s hand and said, “Sister Miaoge, I’ve missed you.”

Lu Miaoge’s hand was clasped by Lu Changsheng; hearing these words, she suddenly stiffened, her heart fluttering.

She also felt shy, fearing that this scene was seen by others.

“Sister Miaoge, did you miss me?”

Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Miaoge’s ears, which were slightly tinged with red, and leaned in to ask.

Lu Miaoge’s cheeks flushed red, and after a moment, she whispered, “I missed you too.”

“I’m going to check on Huanhuan.”

She then wriggled out of Lu Changsheng’s grasp and quickly left, looking somewhat flustered.

Watching Lu Miaoge’s retreating figure, Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly and chuckled, returning to the back courtyard.

Just as he returned to the back courtyard, he saw Lu Miaoyun, Qu Zhenzhen, and the rest of his wives and concubines looking at him with faces full of curiosity and gossip.

“I ran into a little accident on the way back from Nine Dragons Market, making the second young lady believe I was in trouble, which is why she was so excited upon knowing I returned,” Lu Changsheng cleared his throat and explained to his wives.

“Oh, so that’s what happened,” Qu Zhenzhen showed a suddenly enlightened expression, yet her teasing smile clearly showed disbelief.

“It’s fine, husband. Since there are already so many sisters at home, why not marry Sister Miaoge and Sister Miaohuan too?” Lu Miaoyun spoke up, her lips curling into a light smile.

As the official wife, she had come to terms with Lu Changsheng’s practice of taking more wives and concubines.

Thinking of how Lu Changsheng always brings women home,

It might be better to marry both Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan.

After all, it meant keeping the ‘wealth’ within the family.

Moreover, she knew that her husband wanted to have children with good Spiritual Roots.

And both Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan had Middle Grade Spiritual Roots.

If they bore children, the chances of having offspring with Middle Grade Spiritual Roots in the future were quite high.

“What are you talking about?”

Although Lu Changsheng did harbor such thoughts,

He obviously couldn’t agree outright at that moment.

“Husband, I’m serious,” Lu Miaoyun said with a tinge of coyness.

“Yes, Sister Yun is right. Every time I see husband and Sister Miaoge together, I feel they are an excellent match,” Qu Zhenzhen chimed in.

“Well now, to think that you’re making fun of me. It seems you all haven’t had a proper ‘family rule’ to follow for quite some time,” Lu Changsheng said, feeling a warm flush inside, thinking of how thoughtful and considerate his young wife was.

As he was about to apply a ‘family rule’ to his wives, the Fourth Elder arrived.

“Grandmother.”

“Grandmother.”

Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoyun both tidied their clothes a bit and came out to greet her.

Qu Zhenzhen and the other women also followed suit, greeting her with respect.

“Changsheng, I’m relieved that you’re alright,” said the Fourth Elder, who had also heard that Lu Changsheng had returned and came over to check.

Seeing that Lu Changsheng was fine, she too felt relieved.

With Lu Miaoyun and all the other women present, she didn’t inquire into how Lu Changsheng had escaped being pursued.

She simply chatted for a while and then went to see the grandchildren.

…

On a mountain peak thousands of miles away from Nine Dragons Market.

“What’s going on, it’s been two days already, why haven’t they arrived?”

“Could something have happened? Does the Lu Family secretly have a master hidden among them?”
