Lord Chu's Wife Is Wild Chapter 210 - : Sowing Discord

Chapter 210: Sowing Discord

The woman had fair skin and a slender figure. She looked to be in her thirties, but Lu Sheng could not tell her actual age.

She was dressed in an ivory dress with a white fox fur coat draped over her shoulders. Her hair was tied up into a bun and she had a pair of golden b.u.t.terfly steps on her hair.

“Why is Second Aunt here?”

Dongfang Yuechu sat up straight and asked gently.

Lu Sheng raised her eyebrows. So this was the Second Aunt from Dongfang Mansion?

Her appearance was much better than Mdm Dongfang’s. Moreover, her face was kind and she looked like a gentle person.

Could this be the legendary femme fatale?

Judging from Dongfang Yuechu’s att.i.tude, she seemed to be quite close to her?

“Aunt wasn’t in the mansion yesterday. I heard that you were sick when I came back this morning, so I came over to take a look.”

Second Aunt sat down beside the couch and gently stroked Dongfang Yuechu’s hair. She said in a loving voice, “Look at how pale this little face is. No wonder Sister went to White Moon Observatory early in the morning to ask for a peace charm despite her illness.”

Dongfang Yuechu was surprised. “What do you mean?”

“Oh, when I came back, I happened to b.u.mp into your mother at the main gate. I heard from Nanny Zhu that your mother heard that you were possessed, so she wanted to ask for a peace charm for you to wear.”

Second Aunt finished her explanation with a gentle smile on her face.

Lu Sheng was shocked. If Dongfang Riming hadn’t told her the truth, she would have thought that she was a very kind person.

Dongfang Yuechu suppressed the doubt in her heart and blamed herself. “It was Yuechu’s fault. I had to trouble Mother to make this trip.”

In fact, she did not quite understand why Mdm Zhou would suddenly go to the White Moon Observatory to ask for a peace charm for her. It was understandable if she wanted to ask for one herself and then help her get one at the same time.

However, if it was said that she had specially asked a peace charm for her, that would be suspicious.

After all, she was not close to Mdm Zhou. Moreover, Mdm Zhou had been staying in the side courtyard all year round. So far, she had not met Mdm Zhou many times.

Seeing that she was suspicious, the smile in Second Aunt’s eyes deepened.

She held Dongfang Yuechu’s hand and said in a gentle voice, “Sigh, if it weren’t for the fact that I still have some matters to attend to, I would have gone with Sister to ask for a peace charm.”

A sincere smile appeared on Dongfang Yuechu’s pale face. “As long as Second Aunt has the heart, it’s okay!”

Lu Sheng looked at the change in their gazes and could not help but sigh inwardly.

She seemed to be speaking up for Mdm Dongfang, but in reality, she was telling Dongfang Yuechu that Mdm Dongfang, who had always ignored her, was suddenly concerned about her. There must be something wrong.

It seemed that Dongfang Yue had indeed become suspicious.

“This lady is…”

Second Aunt’s gaze immediately landed on Lu Sheng, who was sitting silently and drinking tea.

Seeing that her attention was on her, Lu Sheng’s hand that was holding the teacup paused slightly.

She had just put down her teacup when she heard Dongfang Yuechu’s introduction. “Miss Lu is one of Lord Chu’s men. She is also my savior.”

“So it’s one of Lord Chu’s men.”

Second Aunt sized Lu Sheng up from head to toe and said with a smile, “I originally thought that our Yuechu already had the most outstanding looks in Lin Jiang Mansion. I didn’t expect that Lord Chu would actually hide such a capable little beauty by his side.”

“Second Aunt is too kind.”

Lu Sheng looked up calmly and smiled at her.

“Miss Lu, there’s no need to be humble.” Second Aunt’s smile remained as she said, “Lord Chu is knowledgeable and skillful, talented and good-looking. He probably doesn’t think much of ordinary girls. For a girl to catch his eye, there must be something extraordinary about her.”
