Chapter 118 You should return to men's clothing
She was afraid that her eyes, which were as red and swollen as ripe peach pits, would be seen by her family, so she jumped out from the roof without hesitation.
Although Yan treated her with hypocrisy, her father and two younger brothers loved her wholeheartedly and without reservation.
If this matter were revealed today, wouldn't my father be heartbroken?
What's more, the two brothers, A Zhao and A Xu, would probably become estranged from her because of this.
After careful consideration, Lu Yi decided to keep this matter deep in her heart.
Then she walked towards her own shop with heavy steps.
When Xiaolan saw her eyes that were as swollen as two walnuts, she felt so distressed that she asked quickly, "Miss, what happened to you?"
Lu Yi looked at Xiaolan, her inner sadness surging like a tide. She hugged Xiaolan tightly again, crying bitterly, as if she wanted to pour out all her pain and grievances.
However, she remained silent, which made everyone in the shop worried and they wondered whether she had been treated unfairly in the palace.
However, the scene was dead silent. No one dared to make a sound. They could only stare silently at the crying woman in front of them.
Time passed minute by minute, and finally when she stopped crying and seemed to have completely vented all the sorrow and pain in her heart, a few brave people came forward and asked softly with worried faces: "Madam, what happened to you? Why are you so sad?"
At this moment, Lu Yi's mood calmed down a little, but she still sobbed when she spoke. She slowly replied: "It's okay, you don't have to worry too much. In fact... In fact, I just escaped from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. I feel extremely happy and joyful. From now on, I will never have to go back to that murderous and terrifying place to face those people who want to kill me and the complicated things. That's why I cried with joy!"
When everyone heard this, they suddenly understood and their hearts finally settled down.
At this time, Da Qing asked, "Madam, it's time to eat now. Have you eaten yet?"
Lu Yi subconsciously touched her rumbling stomach and answered truthfully: "Not yet. It just so happens that I feel a little hungry now, so let's have dinner here with you. I haven't eaten Xiaolan's cooking for a long time."
Then he said to He Qingshu, "Manager He, do you have any medicine to reduce the swelling? My eyes are swollen and it's not easy to go back to see my father and the others."
He Qingshu said, "Dr. Wu left a prescription. Applying it to the eyes will quickly reduce swelling. Go with Xiaolan and the others to eat first. I'll go get you some medicine."
Lu Yi said softly, "That's great. I'd like you to take a few more steps to the Lu residence and tell everyone there that I will be back in the evening and that I have something important to attend to."
He Qingshu nodded and said, "I will definitely fulfill my mission."
After the meal, Lu Yi called Da Qing and Xiao Qing to her side and gently instructed: "In my opinion, it would be better for you two to change back into men's clothes. After all, I already know your true identities. There is no need to show yourself in women's guise for fear that I will see through you."
Hearing this, Daqing and Xiaoqing were stunned and asked at the same time: "Madam, may I ask how you knew this?"
In fact, all this was the result of the caterpillar and the ant tipping her off.
Of course, this matter cannot be told to anyone. After all, how can anyone understand what animals say?
She didn't want to be burned to death as a monster.
Then, she raised the corners of her mouth slightly, smiled sweetly, and said softly: "As for how I found out, I'm sorry I can't tell you, but I am very grateful for your wholehearted companionship and full protection during this period of time. My gratitude is beyond words."
Daqing and Xiaoqing finally stopped suppressing their voices. They returned to their original natural tone and said, "Madam, you are too kind. Protecting you is our unshirkable mission!"
Lu Yi nodded slightly to show her agreement and continued, "But as for Xiaolan, I'd still like to trouble you two to take care of her."
