Because she had been struggling for so long, when Shen Ruoyan woke up the next day, the sun had already filled the entire room.

Opening her eyes drowsily and looking at the mess on the floor, Shen Ruoyan couldn't help but think of the scene of the two hugging each other tightly on the small soft couch last night.

Cheeks feel hot.

Fortunately, the servants were all sensible and no one came in to disturb us.

Shen Ruoyan was so embarrassed that she didn't even want to step out of the room when she thought of being discovered by others that she and Lu Yan were old and married, still as ignorant as when they were young.

After lying on the soft couch for a while and regaining her strength, Shen Ruoyan got out of bed, tidied up the messy bedding, opened the window, and found a beautiful room.

Shen Ruoyan breathed a sigh of relief when she couldn't see any clues.

Lu Yan's study was very spacious with few furniture. Now Shen Ruoyan was the only one there, which seemed a bit lonely.

Not wanting to leave so soon, Shen Ruoyan walked aimlessly to Lu Yan's desk.

Maybe he left in a hurry and didn't even have time to sort out the things on the table.

Somehow, Shen Ruoyan suddenly thought of the letter that Lu Yan had placed upside down on the table that day.

The woman's intuition told Shen Ruoyan that the changes in Lu Yan these days might be related to that letter.

Thinking about it, Shen Ruoyan especially wanted to see what was written in that letter?

While there was no one in the study, Shen Ruoyan lowered her head and looked through the pages. Perhaps she was too absorbed in reading. Suddenly she heard the sound of the door being opened. Shen Ruoyan was startled. She had no time to take away the surprised expression on her face, and her eyes collided with Lu Yan's.

"What are you looking for?" Lu Yan asked.

His tone was anxious, with a bit of severity that he couldn't even detect.

"I..." Shen Ruoyan's heart was pounding, but she still raised the book in her hand and said, "I see your study is so messy, and I want to help you tidy it up."

Lu Yan glanced at Shen Ruoyan and stopped talking.

After being married for many years, both of them seemed to understand that the other was deliberately concealing it, but they had a tacit understanding not to reveal it.

The atmosphere was extremely awkward.

Shen Ruoyan casually found an excuse and left the study.

Stepping outside, she exhaled.

What Lu Yan asked just now was what are you looking for?

Instead of what are you doing?

If there were no secrets being kept from him, why would he be so eager?

Shen Ruoyan turned back and glanced at the study.

There might be something in the study that she couldn't know.

In the next few days, Shen Ruoyan discovered that no matter whether Lu Yan was in the house or not, there would be a boy guarding the door of the study, which confirmed Shen Ruoyan's guess.

However, she really didn't have time to investigate what Lu Yan was hiding, because the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet was coming soon.

As Shen Ruoyan's first public appearance after returning to Beijing, Mrs. Shen paid extra attention to this palace banquet. Not only did she get Shen Ruoyan to tailor her clothes early and customized a whole set of new clothes, but she also popularized Shen Ruoyan during the three years she left the capital. , the changes in the relationships between nobles from various aristocratic families.

These days, Shen Ruoyan has listened to a lot of gossip and naturally has no time to think about Lu Yan.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lu Yan returned home early in the morning.

When the concierge said that Lu Yan was back, Shen Ruoyan didn't feel too upset. She just asked someone to send customized clothes to Lu Yan while she was busy changing her son's clothes.

In order to cater to the theme of Mid-Autumn Festival, Shen Ruoyan chose moon white as the main color for today's banquet.

Lu Shibai was already pretty, but when he put on a moon-white robe, he actually showed a somewhat elegant temperament, and there was no trace of his usual temperament of a demon king.

Tie up little Zaizai's hair.

Lu Shibai stretched out his short hand, touched the bun on his head, and grinned at Shen Ruoyan.

Shen Ruoyan scraped her son's nose lovingly and warned worriedly: "Guoguo, mother and father are taking you into the palace today.

There are many rules in the palace. You must be obedient and don't leave your mother's side. Do you understand? "

Lu Shibai nodded, indicating that he understood.

Seeing that her son still didn't speak, Shen Ruoyan sighed silently.

In the past few days, she had tried her best to teach her son how to speak.

She didn't ask Lu Shibai to speak well, it would be nice if he could at least call someone.

But no matter what methods she used, all kinds of threats and inducements failed to get Xiao Zaizai to speak.

What Shen Ruoyan was worried about was not her own face, but fear that others would laugh at her son because of it.

"The Emperor's Grandpa and the Queen Mother live in the palace. They are the most noble people in the world. In front of them, Guoguo must not be arrogant." Shen Ruoyan continued uneasily, "When you see the Emperor's Grandpa and the Queen Mother, you must bow. , do you still remember the etiquette my mother taught you?"

Little kid Lu Shibai raised his head and blinked a few times.

Then he knelt down on the bed and performed a standard salute to Shen Ruoyan.

Shen Ruoyan looked at his little arms and legs, and his chubby body curled up into a ball, but every movement was very standard and extremely cute, and she couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, my Guo Guo is really smart." Shen Ruoyan picked up Lu Shibai, kissed him on his tender cheek, and comforted, "Guo Guo, there is no need to be too scared, my mother will always be by your side. of."

Lu Shibai arched into Shen Ruoyan's arms like a little pig.

Shen Ruoyan was made to laugh out loud by his actions, and she almost lost her footing without paying attention.

I thought I was about to fall.

Before losing her balance, Shen Ruoyan firmly protected her son with both hands, instinctively took a few steps back, and fell into a familiar embrace.

Lu Yan put his arms around Shen Ruoyan and held her steady.

He gave his son a warning look.

Lu Shibai, who was twisting like a little bitch just now, immediately stopped laughing and became extremely docile.

Struggling out of Shen Ruoyan's arms, the little Zaizai raised his two hands, holding his mother in one hand and his father in the other, pulling the two adults toward the door.

Shen Ruoyan originally didn't have a good attitude toward Lu Yan, but because her son was present, she didn't want to say anything more and allowed her son to pull her onto the carriage.

Because no one spoke, the huge carriage seemed unusually quiet.

Shen Ruoyan held her son in her arms and pretended to watch the scene on the street attentively, paying no attention to Lu Yan.

When the carriage arrived outside the palace gate, Shen Ruoyan was about to take Lu Shibai out of the car. Lu Yan raised his hand and forcefully took Zaizai from Shen Ruoyan's arms.

Shen Ruoyan glanced at Lu Yan and got out of the car expressionlessly.

"Master Lu, long time no see!"

A woman's coquettish voice came from not far away.

Shen Ruoyan felt that this voice was very familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was for a moment, so she turned back curiously.

At the end of the palace road, they saw Su Xihe holding the hand of a little boy and walking towards them with a smile.
