Chapter 2418: Chapter 2415: An Unexpected Event
“If it were before, you’d never hesitate if someone owed me a favor.” Ye Muyu said bluntly, and she didn’t deny that she was testing Lu Sangqi’s intentions.
Currently, she cannot endure any betrayal.
The Qi family’s future offensives will only increase, so she must always be on guard and has no energy to deal with betrayal from those close to her.
Lu Sangqi’s face flushed, somewhat embarrassed: “Sister, I indeed have feelings for Huo Ning, and I have already asked Grandfather to propose to the Huo Residence.”
“Sister, I admit it’s my selfishness and also the responsibility of a man. Huo Ning’s situation in the Huo family is precarious, and this engagement might not succeed. I am very worried that if she gets involved in the Qi family’s affairs, her situation will worsen.”
“Even if you want to relay this message, I can do it.” Lu Sangqi quickly said.
Ye Muyu looked at him deeply: “Do you need my help? Securing your engagement is not difficult.”
“No need.” Lu Sangqi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and declined: “You already have a lot to handle, I can’t disturb you further, and I already have a plan.”
“Sister, rest assured, I will take care of this matter.”
Ye Muyu didn’t refuse and saw Lu Sangqi off.
Then she called Su Mei inside.
She took a sip of tea and said, “Keep an eye on Lu Sangqi. If he conveys the message to the Qi family, arrange a marriage between the Huo and Lu families.”
“Madam, are you saying we need to watch Doctor Lu?” Su Mei was surprised. As far as she knew, outsiders had always believed that Doctor Lu had a close relationship with the Chu family, especially with Madam. Had Doctor Lu done something to displease Madam, otherwise, why would she order someone to watch Lu Sangqi?”
Ye Muyu saw her expression and knew there was a misunderstanding. She rubbed her brow, a bit tired of explaining: “It’s just to make sure he won’t do anything foolish, and also, it’s for his own good.”

“If he really makes some sacrifice for me, how could I face him in the future? Although we currently have no relations, it’s not very difficult. This only shows that we are short on manpower and still need further cultivation.”
“Withdraw one thousand taels from the account. Cultivate anyone of good character.”
“Understood.” Su Mei was relieved. As long as Madam hadn’t fallen out with Doctor Lu, it was beneficial for the master’s health.
She feared most that when the master recovered in the future, Madam would realize what she had lost, and there may be regrets in her heart.
But Lu Sangqi didn’t anticipate this.
He was merely busy making arrangements, so the Qi family could call his doctor into the residence, yet he failed to notice that Huo Ning had already discovered this matter herself.
And went to the Qi Residence to see Madame Yue.
In the back courtyard of the Qi family’s third household.
Huo Ning met with Madame Yue in the pavilion.
The courtyard prepared by Third Madam Qi for Madame Yue and Qi Yun wasn’t shabby.
It’s just that Madame Yue’s courtyard was right beside hers, obviously convenient for keeping an eye on her.
While Qi Yun, as Elder Qi San’s only son, held a very special status, even if the official young miss and young master of the Qi Residence looked down on him, with Minister Qi and Third Madam Qi’s support on the surface, the place he lived in the outer courtyard wasn’t too bad, but only Qi Yun himself knew the details of the treatment.
“Xiao Ning, why have you e?” Madame Yue looked at Huo Ning with a gentle smile: “Don’t worry, I haven’t suffered here, Yun’er is protecting me.”
“I heard about something, what’s your relationship with Third Madam Qi like?”
