Chapter 290: Meeting Again
Pei Rumo didn’t expect a grown lady like Zi Su to clearly guess his thoughts . He was placed in a tough spot as a wave of discomfort swept through his body .
Pei Rumo coughed twice before replying, “It isn’t really the case . I just feel that Luo Chu is more easy-going when dealing with Pei Qingfeng . ”
Zi Su frowned and fell silent for a moment . She thought for a long time before speaking up, “I don’t think so . I feel that Young Lady Luo Chu treats everyone with her icy-cold expression . If she treats anyone nicely, medicinal ingredients would be involved . She treats medicinal ingredients like treasure . Sometimes, I will feel goosebumps on my body when I look at her dealing with her medicinal ingredients . ”
Pei Rumo was regretful he asked the question . Zi Su was the same as Bai Luochu . They were both blockheads when it came to relationships .
“Alright, you may be dismissed . Tomorrow morning, help me to deliver an invitation card to the general’s residence . ” Pei Rumo didn’t wish to carry on talking about it and he quickly changed the topic .
Zi Su knew that he was chasing her out and she dismissed herself .
Just as Pei Rumo was thinking of whether or not he should leave the room, a pigeon flew through the window with a message slip on its legs . He opened it and read the large words, “Young Lady Luo Chu has returned to the general’s residence . ”
Pei Rumo sighed . He felt that he was treating her differently because of her talent .
In the general’s residence, Cai Ling was sneezing constantly . Bai Luochu had been vexed over the sudden appearance of the mysterious faction but she lost her ability to think because of little Cai Ling .
But how could she force Cai Ling to stop sneezing? Bai Luochu didn’t blame her and she asked, “What is wrong? Did you catch a cold?”
Cai Ling shook her head and confessed to Bai Luochu, “I didn’t . When this servant was young, I suffered from an illness that hadn’t been completely cured . If I caught a cold, I would have collapsed a long time ago . I wouldn’t be able to stand here . This servant doesn’t know what is going on as well… I feel that my nose and ears are always twitching . Who is talking about me behind my back?”

Bai Luochu felt it was rather funny as she didn’t expect her personal servant to be so superstitious . She didn’t say anything and turned her gaze to stare out of the window .
Since Bai Luochu returned to the general’s residence, Cai Ling felt that there was something off about her . Since Bai Luochu didn’t say anything, Cai Ling didn’t dare to be nosy . Now that Bai Luochu had spoken up, Cai Ling mustered her courage and asked, “Mistress, since you came back, it seemed like there were a ton of things on your mind . This servant didn’t dare to ask but will Mistress be able to tell this servant what happened?”
Bai Luochu turned back abruptly and looked at Cai Ling . When she saw the little lass’ concerned expression, she couldn’t help but rub Cai Ling’s head, “Nothing major . Perhaps, it is just my groundless fears . ”
When Cai Ling heard Bai Luochu’s reply, she knew that she wasn’t going to get an answer . A dispirited expression appeared on her face but she still consoled Bai Luochu, “Mistress, if there is a problem, never take it on alone . Don’t forget you still have us and a whole group of helpers from the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence behind you!”
Bai Luochu felt much better after listening to Cai Ling . “I know . There is no need to worry about me . Nothing has happened yet . Even if something comes up, we will definitely be able to handle it together… Right?”
Cai Ling nodded her head forcefully .

Bai Luochu felt that after her reincarnation, the most fortunate thing that could happen to her was to meet all these companions .
From the looks of it, the mysterious faction that entered the capital might not be a threat to herself and the Palace of Brilliance Resurgence . However, Bai Luochu felt as though something big was about to happen . Taking a look at the sky, Bai Luochu saw thick layers of clouds that hid the moon . Cold wind howled as it blew through the land and the plants in the courtyard seemed as though they were about to be ripped off their roots . It seemed as though disaster was about to befall the land .
Bai Luochu wasn’t a superstitious person and she calmed down before going back to cultivate .
Early the next morning, just as Bai Luochu was having her breakfast, someone made a report . “Young Lady Luo Chu, the First Prince’s residence sent someone to deliver an invitation card . The young attendant isn’t the one who came . The newcomer is a young lady and she said that she had to meet you .
Bai Luochu stopped chewing for a moment . It isn’t strange for Pei Rumo to send someone to deliver an invitation card . Neither is it strange for him to arrange for a lady to deliver the card . If she insists on meeting me . . .

Once the thoughts formed in her mind, it wasn’t going to stop . Bai Luochu immediately asked the guard to bring the lady inside .
Zi Su followed the guard all the way to Bai Luochu’s courtyard and gently knocked on the door .
“Please enter . ”
Zi Su then unhurriedly opened the door and bowed to Bai Luochu as she gave her greeting, “This servant greets Young Lady Luo Chu . It has been a long time since we last met . I trust Young Lady Luo Chu has been well?”
Bai Luochu was overjoyed to see Zi Su, “Zi Su, it really is you! It has been such a long time! I thought that I would be able to see you during my meetings with His First Highness . Today is actually the first time we meet again . ”
Zi Su responded with embarrassed laughter, “That’s right, Young Lady might not know this but since Young Lady left the residence, Master sent me out . I only came back recently . Furthermore, Master has the intention to nurture little Ming Lu . It just so happens that Ming Lu is recuperating right now because of his sore muscles . ”
“After such a long time, you have matured quite a bit . You were a responsible person when serving me . Right now, it seems like you have grown even more . ” Bai Luochu noticed that Zi Su had changed and she couldn’t help but praise her .
