Hadn't they been intimate during this period of time, when she had promised to find a way to deliver the letter to Lu Xinhai? Right now, the only reason why he wanted to invite her over was to find out more about Lu Xinhai. After all, there were three days before she would be married off.

"Let's go!" Since she had already found him, she couldn't continue to hide it. She just hoped that she could endure it.

"It's good that you're waiting outside. Fifth Sis and I have a few words to say to each other." Li Wan Lan looked at Li Die as she entered, forcefully suppressing the joy in her heart as she spoke to Xiang'er.

Li Die turned around and said to Yan Luo, "You go out and help Xiang'er."

She just didn't feel assured that Xiang'er was outside, so she spent all her money to look at Xiang'er. The moment Yan Luo thought about it, it immediately understood what she meant. It responded with a smile.

After the two of them left, Li Wan Lan anxiously looked at her and asked, "Is there any news from Lu Lang?"

Li Die shook her head. Looking at Li Wanlan's disappointed eyes, she didn't know what to say to comfort her. After all, she had never tried to comfort anyone.

"Is she hating me, Lu Lang?" and you don't even want to meet for the last time. " Hot tears rolled down his trembling eyelashes.

Li Die took out her embroidery handkerchief and wiped it off for her as she tried to persuade her.

"No matter what, I have to thank you for this matter. Since Lang won't even meet him once, then forget it." Looking at her sorrowful expression, she moved her lips but didn't say anything in the end.

After her grief, Li Wanlan indifferently wiped away the tears that had yet to dry at the corners of her eyes. However, her eyes no longer had the warmth and happiness from before as she said, "Now, it's time for me to be at ease and wait for marriage. Fifth sister must not come here again in the future."

Li Die looked at Li Wanlan who had just recovered and didn't feel the slightest bit of joy or relief. At this moment, she really hoped that she could cry to vent the pain in her heart. It was better than being strong and calm at this moment.

Yan Luo asked about her worries after they left the pavilion, "Are you sad?"

"It would be great if you were truly sad." Li Die sighed.

Yan Luo asked with a puzzled expression, "What do you mean? Yan Luo doesn't understand. "

"Big Sis was so calm after hearing that there was no news from Young Master Lu." Li Die said word by word.

"Hearing what Young Master Lu has done, shouldn't this young lady be crying? How could it be so calm? " Yan Luo didn't understand what Li Wan Lan was trying to do either.

"That's why I said if big sister was truly sad, things would be easier. Right now, she is only feeling depressed in her heart. I was truly afraid that she would be depressed and get sick."

"If Miss does not feel at ease and goes a few times every day to help enlighten Miss, allowing her to vent the bitterness in her heart, she will be fine."

"Now, I'm afraid elder sister is really disheartened and even I am not allowed to go." After saying that, Li Die shook her head and didn't say anything else.

"Fifth Miss, the Madam is inviting the young lady over!" Ping Yue, the head maid that served Lady Wang, chased after her with a smile on her face.

Li Die was surprised for a moment, and then she asked with a smile, "Did mother say why she was looking for me?" She remembered that when nothing had happened, Lady Wang had never taken the initiative to send someone to look for her. Now, she had actually sent a maid over, Ping Yue. It was truly strange.

"You'll know once you get there, but the four ladies are also there now." Ping Yue told her that no matter what, she was still the daughter of the Wang family. Even her servants wouldn't dare to bully her.

"Then I'll have to trouble big sister Ping Yue to make this trip." Li Die heard Ping Yue's words and didn't feel relieved. On the contrary, she couldn't figure it out.

"The five ladies are too polite." Ping Yue was elated after hearing Li Die's pleasantries.

"Mother, Sister Four." After Li Die entered the room, she greeted Wang Shi who was sitting on the seat of honor. Then, she politely called out to Li Rou and Ping with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Sit down." When Lady Wang saw how distant she was from her, she felt a little uncomfortable. However, she did not reveal any expression on her face.

After Li Die heard her words, she sat quietly on the side. She didn't take the initiative to ask about the Wang family sending people to find her. She was already here and it was probably too late to ask now.

Lady Wang was constantly paying attention to her actions. Seeing her act so gracefully, she smiled in satisfaction. Then, she said, "The reason I called you here today was also for Lan'er's marriage."

Hearing this, Li Die's worried heart was somewhat relieved, but when she thought of Li Wanlan, her heart fiercely throbbed.

She looked at Lady Wang who was sitting on the chair and took a deep breath, then said what she was thinking, "Mother, your daughter went to see Big Sis today, but Big Sis doesn't look too good. Perhaps we're going to get married in the next few days. Otherwise, I'm begging father to let Big Sis out, right?" Li Die's voice carried a trace of courage and a bit of probing.

She secretly shook her head in her heart. This daughter of hers was too kind and soft-hearted. If she knew of her own background, she would likely not be able to hide from so many people.

As he thought about what happened that year, his slightly sour heart hardened once again. He continued with a hint of undetectable estrangement in his tone, "This matter was ordered by your father to punish you. In the end, it's all for the sake of the young lady and the Li Residence. "If something were to happen in the past few days, I'm afraid that even the Lin Clan would find it hard to explain themselves."

Li Die knew that this matter had already been set in stone. She didn't have any more hope now, but she just wanted to make the few days she had spent at home more comfortable.

However, hearing Lady Wang's words, she understood a little. She was worried that if she let Li Wanlan out, it would cause some trouble. After all, what Li Wanlan did back then was obvious to everyone.

"Please forgive me, mother. My daughter was inconsiderate." She had never been close to Wang Shi, so now that she wasn't allowed to, she naturally couldn't be like Li Rou Ping, hugging her mother's arm and acting like a spoiled child.

"Lan'er's bridal dress and the bridal dress were sent back by Cai Yi Hall's men. Now just prepare the accessories for the young lady." Originally, the bride should have embroidered the wedding dress herself. However, Li Xiangnan and Lady Wang were afraid that their current attitude towards Li Wanlan might cause unnecessary trouble, so they went to the Caiyi Pavilion to make one.
