After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 175: Anger

"No, it's just that I unexpectedly ran into the Prince on this street today."

When Yuan Zheng uttered the words "Prince," Gan Luo naturally thought of Xin Ruyu. Unexpectedly, Xu Jiu encountered Xin Ruyu while strolling around the streets.

He then led the maid to take Xu Jiu to rest, leaving Yuan Zheng alone there.

"Did Xin Ruyu say anything today?"

"This prince seems to want to be with the princess..."

Then he whispered something in Gan Luo's ear. Gan Luo frowned, not expecting Xu Jiu to have some hostility towards Xin Ruyu. But so be it, it didn't matter to Gan Luo.

On the other hand, the people Gan Luo sent out to investigate have returned and told Gan Luo that one of the two groups was Xin Ruyu's, and the other was the Prime Minister's.

Gan Luo's face darkened, and he slammed his hand on the table. He never expected that these two would be so despicable and shameless, actually planning to assassinate Xu Jiu here. Xu Jiu had not provoked them, so why would they do such a thing?

Yuan Zheng knelt down on the ground with a thud. "Please calm down, Your Highness. It's not worth ruining your health over someone like that."

"I know I just think they are too shameless. I don't know their intentions, but if anything happens to this princess, I will make them pay the price."

At this moment, Gan Luo made a decision: he would go to the Prince Yu's residence the next day.

Yuan Zheng didn't know Gan Luo's intentions, but he still agreed and told Gan Luo to be careful from now on.

"My strength is evident here. This prince is delusional to think he can deal with me. Although I am a woman, my abilities are almost equal to those of the two men."

If that weren't the case, why would those members of the National Protection Army obey Gan Luo's orders?

Gan Luo's words are indeed quite reasonable.

"Your Highness, this Miss Lin has been at the Shadow Hall for several days. Shall I send someone to investigate...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Gan Luo shook her head, indicating that there was no need to concern herself with Lin Ruohua's affairs, as she believed Lin Ruohua knew what she was doing.

Inside the Shadow Hall, Lin Ruohua observed the Hall Master and noticed that his health had been deteriorating over the past few days. More importantly, the Hall Master was taking his medication intermittently, which puzzled Lin Ruohua. She asked the Hall Master, "Why aren't you taking your medicine when you're unwell? What is your intention, Hall Master?"

"I just find this medicine a little bitter. Besides, as for me, I've already lived for so many years, so I don't think it's a big deal to weaken myself. Do you want me to live forever?"

Unexpectedly, Lin Ruohua didn't say a word. She just glanced at the Shadow Hall Master. For Lin Ruohua, she really hoped that the Shadow Hall Master could live. Although she and her son had little affection for each other, he was still related to her by blood.

"Master, you should take better care of your health. Otherwise, who will you entrust this vast Shadow Hall to?"

Unexpectedly, the leader of the Shadow Hall looked at Lin Ruohua, laughed a few times, and took out a jade pendant. "I'll give this jade pendant to you. Can you call me 'Mother'? After all, I know I've mistreated you all these years."

Lin Ruohua did not speak or accept the jade pendant. Instead, she brought over the bowl of medicine next to her and personally prepared it for the Shadow Hall Master. Afterward, she inquired about Lin Fengmian's affairs.

"As for the Hall Master, didn't you decide to hand over the Shadow Hall to Lin Fengmian? Do you still have that idea now?"

The Shadow Hall Master told Lin Ruohua that he did indeed have such an idea, because Lin Fengmian was the most outstanding disciple in the Shadow Hall. If the Shadow Hall were handed over to Lin Fengmian, he believed that under Lin Fengmian's leadership, the Shadow Hall would definitely continue to be glorious, not to mention that Lin Fengmian was very intelligent.

"Is Lin Fengmian really just an orphan?"

“When I found him, he was indeed just an orphan, but the jade pendant he was wearing and the patterns embroidered on the silk made me think that he was not an ordinary person.”

However, regarding Lin Fengmian's true identity, the leader of the Shadow Hall had once sent people to investigate, but ultimately they couldn't find any clues. It was as if someone was secretly hiding Lin Fengmian's identity, whether for protection or...

Lin Ruohua kept all the words of the Shadow Hall Master firmly in mind. However, what Lin Ruohua found somewhat unbelievable was that, as the daughter of the Shadow Hall Master, she had no intention of handing over the Shadow Hall to him.

"Aren't you going to ask me why I didn't hand over the Shadow Hall leadership to you? You are my daughter, and we are family. Logically and morally, I should hand over the Shadow Hall to you."

Lin Ruohua hadn't expected the Shadow Hall Master to be so clever as to guess what she was thinking. Then Lin Ruohua asked the Shadow Hall Master why he didn't do it this way.

"Do you know how many layers of influence the Shadow Hall has? I only hope that you can be an ordinary person and marry a good husband, not like your mother, who is just your mother. What I did in the past is still my mother..."

If she could do it all over again, she probably wouldn't want to take over Shadow Hall at all.

But there aren't that many things in this world that can be done again.

For some reason, Lin Ruohua suddenly felt a little sorry for his mother.

"mother……"

After a long while, Lin Ruohua finally called out, "Shadow Hall Master's wife, Shadow Hall Master." Upon hearing this one word, tears streamed down her face.

For some reason, at that moment, all the suffering seemed insignificant. The leader of the Shadow Hall simply hugged Lin Ruohua tightly and kept apologizing.

"Fortunately, you have grown up safely and peacefully."

This is what makes the Shadow Hall Master happy. At this time, the Shadow Hall Master also decided to visit Lin Ruohua's adoptive parents when he has time, because without them, how could Lin Ruohua be who she is today?
