After Rebirth, She Becomes the Revenge Queen-Chapter 461 - 326 The Agreement Has Expired (Requesting Monthly Pass)

The people sent by the Liang Family to find Pei Zhan at the government office and the Supreme Court both returned empty-handed. Later, they chased to the Pei Mansion, just in time to encounter Cheng Chili, who said that Pei Zhan had just gone out, so they returned defeated.

Mrs. Feng felt slightly regretful.

For the nephew Pei Zhan to marry the aunt Liang Ning was naturally difficult for Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Cao to accept. But since they were already married, and Liang Ning now held the status of Mrs. Ning’s daughter, the matter was settled, and there was no need to dwell on it.

Nothing compares to the satisfaction of the younger sister still being alive.

Yet, it felt necessary to bring up the things that should have been said when they got married, hoping to use this opportunity to urge Pei Zhan to treat Liang Ning kindly and live well.

Who would have thought he was so busy.

However, there is a long future ahead. It can be discussed another day.

During dinner, everyone sat around the table, enjoying a harmonious time together.

The words spoken during the reunion seemed endless, but ultimately everything must come to an end.

Su Xinger, noticing her mother-in-law’s emotions fluctuating greatly throughout the day and worrying about her health, found a gap to speak, mentioning that it was getting late and they should escort Fu Zhen back to her residence.

The two madams reluctantly saw Fu Zhen off to the front yard, eyes welling with tears again, continuously advising her, "Come again tomorrow, there are still many things left unsaid. Your acknowledgment of ancestry, the marriage with Zhan Er, we still need to meet your in-laws, and most importantly, do not forget Mrs. Ning."

Fu Zhen nodded and agreed to everything.

At the door, she could not hold back anymore and knelt on the threshold to pay her respects.

As tears fell to the ground, Liang Chen hurriedly assisted her, saying, "Xing Er and I will escort little aunt back. Mother and Aunt have been busy all day, please rest. Little aunt’s health requires care, even if she doesn’t come tomorrow, the day after will do, or anytime in the future. What lies ahead are endless good days, there’s no rush at this moment."

With those words, the two ladies found them reasonable, moreover sprouted a determination to plan well for the future, rather getting some spirit.

Fu Zhen was accompanied by Liang Chen and his wife to the carriage, remaining silent for a while, before wiping away her tears and looking up.

Seeing their reddened eyes, she instead laughed, "It is supposed to be a good day, but everyone ends up crying one by one, is this proper?"

Su Xinger chuckled, wiped her eyes, and turned to look out the car window.

The waning moon dimly lit the streets, and due to the curfew, scarcely any pedestrians could be seen.

The couple saw Fu Zhen to the Pei Mansion and then left, the place was swarmed with patrolling soldiers, even with their privileges, it was not wise to act recklessly. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Fu Zhen watched them disappear into the distance, still standing under the door frame.

The moonlight was not bright, shrouded in a thin mist, like a dream.

Just as she turned to leave, the sound of hooves echoed behind her.

Pei Zhan appeared with his guards, a touch of surprise on his usually stern face.

"What are you doing here?"

"I just returned." Fu Zhen glanced at him, "Aren’t you getting off the horse?"

Pei Zhan dismounted.

He walked up to her and pointed to the door, "Go in."

Fu Zhen stepped through the door, the hallway lights casting their shadows, one after another, ahead of them. Apart from the doorman and those on night duty, there was no one else in the corridor; the General’s Mansion, already spacious, now felt particularly desolate.

Fu Zhen’s question broke the silence, "Where did you go today?"

"Oh, something came up at the camp. I went out of the city right after leaving the palace."

"No wonder, the people my sisters-in-law sent couldn’t find you anywhere." Fu Zhen casually plucked a flower branch, turning to look at him in the moonlight.

Her face wore a faint smile, serene as the moonlight itself.

Pei Zhan’s emotions stirred without reason. His left hand rested on the hilt of his sword as he glanced towards the corner of the courtyard where the Chrysanthemum Mountain was set up, "How are they? Are they well? I suppose you had a joyful time there today?"

Liang Ning’s eldest and second sisters-in-law had always been addressed as Aunts by Pei Zhan. If he were to spend a lifetime with Fu Zhen, that title would have to change.

"Joy is perhaps for next time. Today’s reunion was more sorrow than happiness." Fu Zhen continued walking, her words unceasing, "I am someone who never changes my mind easily."

"After being wronged by Xu Yin, I always felt I did nothing wrong by saving him, that it was simply what anyone would have done at that moment."

"But seeing them today at the Liang Family, I felt immense regret."
