Chapter 105.1 - Converting to Buddhism

“Master, the second miss’ come back from the temple!” Lan Bai had just received this news before sprinting back to the Leaning Wind Pavilion.

She saw Lou Qingwu calmly reading and couldn’t help but huff as she snatched away her book.

“Master, what are we going to do? Why aren’t you worried at all? I heard that the Ruan family head came over today as well and who knows what the second madam said but right after he left, second madam let people collect the second miss from the temple.”

Lou Qingwu didn’t seem affected by this news, “Oh, then is the second madam happy right now?”

“Yes, she’s full of happiness, always saying that the residence is about to prepare for a wedding.”

To let the Ruan family head personally come over to see Ruan Zhen meant that Ruan Zhen had some sort of hold on him.

And this hold, should be something to do with the ninth madam who lived in Ruan Xiuren’s main rooms.

But Thousand Face still hadn’t gotten ahold of the ninth madam’s painting so right now, it was still an unknown.

This means there’s no use worrying over nothing, so why not just calmly watch and see what happens?

“Don’t worry, let’s just wait.” She pulled Lan Bai over to sit down as Lou Qingwu took her book back again.

“Lou Lianxin’s already given her body to Li Jingsheng, the whole capital knows this. So Lou Lianxin can only marry Li Jingsheng. But whether or not Li Jingsheng’s willing to marry her is a completely different matter. But if, Ruan Zhen found the Ruan family head today, it seems like Lou Lianxin should be able to marry over in the next few days.”

“Ah, so master you’re just going to let her happily fulfil her dreams?!”

She didn’t forget what she’d found out about the residence, that mother-daughter pair were vicious and had wanted to harm her master before!

She should just let the second miss live alone for the rest of her life!

To let her happily marry Li Jingsheng, doesn’t that just make your blood boil?

Lou Qingwu saw that she was fuming and went to comfort her, “Be good, don’t be angry. Even if Li Jingsheng’s willing to marry her, she definitely won’t be his wife.”

“But my heart’s still not comfortable.” Just seeing how proud and lofty the second madam was, made her upset.

“.... Just wait a few more days and you’ll see.”

Lou Qingwu’s eyes moved past Lan Bai and to the black box by her window.

Her eyes grew dark, how could she let Lou Lianxin just get what she wants?

It’s just that the timing wasn’t right, so she’d let them be happy for a few more days.

Lou Lianxin’s carriage had only just stopped outside the carriage and before it even steadied, Lou Lianxin had already impatiently jumped off.

Seeing the familiar residence, she finally let out a long breath.

She’d finally come back!

Just wait for her to enter the Li residence and capture Li Jingsheng’s heart, then Lou Qingwu, you wait for me!

“Second miss, first go to the main hall. Laoye and the second madam are waiting for you.”

“Okay.” She lowered her eyes as she hid the cold light in her eyes.

She’d originally thought that Lou Qingwu was just a weak idiot, but if she still thought that, even after father’s banquet, then even if she’d died, it’d be her dying from stupidity.

She fixed up her expression as she bit down her lip, walking in a composed manner towards the residence with small steps.

When she reached the main hall, she stood by the door and saw Lou Qufeng as well as Ruan Zhen.

Her eyes first reddened as she walked unsteadily towards the centre.

When she saw Lou Qufeng, her legs bent.

She kneeled down completely to the ground, it hurt so much that Lou Lianxin was seeing stars.

But she held it in, “Father, your unfilial daughter’s come back.”

Lou Qufeng originally wanted to scold her a bit because after all, he couldn’t even raise his head at court these few days.

But seeing this type of Lou Lianxin, his anger had completely disappeared.

No matter what, he’d truly doted and loved Lian’er, this child.

Even if her personality wasn’t great, she was at least filial to him.

If it wasn’t for this affair, he definitely wouldn’t have allowed for his little treasure to just marry off like that.

He couldn’t help but personally raise her up, patting the back of her hand, “Lian’er, you’ve suffered.”

TL note:

Converting to Buddhism - when they say this, they mean the whole 9 yards, like basically becoming a nun, chanting Buddhist sutras, abstaining from meat, etc.

LLX could’ve been a child actress honestly.
