Gu Lingyu was not her savior, but he had already known about this matter. Su Qiao must have told him about it. She did not expect them to start plotting against her so early.

This realization made Su Yan furious. However, she did not lose control of her emotions like she did in the beginning. Therefore, when she looked at the two people in front of her who were silently looking at each other, Su Yan even smiled faintly at them.

This time, she did not interfere in their affairs anymore. Su Qiao did not have the position as daughter of the Su family anymore. With Gu Lingyu’s reckless personality for power, she did not know if they could still be as loving as they were in her previous life.

Gu Lingyu had achieved his goal. Although Su Yan did not respond to him directly, he felt that Su Yan loved him so much that she would definitely not reject him.

“Su Yan, Lingyu and I are about to get engaged.”

Once Gu Lingyu left, Su Qiao stopped pretending and immediately changed her expression. In terms of acting, Su Qiao and Gu Lingyu were quite compatible.

“That’s perfect. If you marry Gu Lingyu and I marry his uncle, the King of Guangping, you can change your way of addressing me to aunt.”

Su Yan had a slightly smug expression on her face, which made the corner of Su Qiao’s Mouth Twitch. Su Yan must be stupid. Marrying someone like the King of Guangping was really a good thing.

However, Su Qiao did not remind her. She would regret it in the future.

These two annoying people had finally left. Su Yan thought that she could finally set off to Shen An. A few days ago, she had told her mother that she wanted to go to Shen an SI to pay respects to the Su family.

This period of time was a troubled time for the Su family, so Madam Su did not suspect anything.

However, Su Yan really could not leave today. The head maid, Tao Hong, who was beside Madam Su, walked over.

“Miss, Madam asked me to bring you over.” Tao Hong stood in front of Su Yan and bowed.

“Aunt Tao Hong, why is my mother looking for me?” Su Yan was very respectful towards Aunt Tao Hong who had watched her grow up.

“Madam did not say. Miss will know when she goes over.” Tao Hong looked at Su Yan dotingly and felt that her young miss was really obedient.

Su Yan followed Tao Hong to Madam Su’s room. As soon as she entered, she saw Madam Su holding a small box in her hand.

Madam Su treated the small box very carefully.

This made Su Yan a little curious. This was the first time she had seen such an expression on madam Su’s face.

When Madam Su saw Su Yan enter the room, she warmly waved at her and blocked everyone else.

When only the two of them were left in the room, Madam Su picked up the box in her hand and showed it to Su Yan.

“Su Yan, this was left for mother by a benefactor that mother met when she was young. After that benefactor saved me, he told me that my daughter is a person with great fortune. You will need this thing.” Madam Su seemed to be recalling the past, her gaze was a little erratic.

“Mom doesn’t know who that benefactor is, but mom knows that he is a person with great ability. Now that my Su Yan is going to get married, it’s time for mother to give it to you.”

Madam Su looked at Su Yan, who was about to get married in the blink of an eye, and sighed.

This did not happen in her previous life. She was probably forced to marry into the Guangping imperial residence, so Madam Su did not have the chance to give it to her.

Su Yan took the box in her hand and returned to her room. She could not help but open it curiously to take a look. It was not as gorgeous or mysterious as she had imagined.

Su Yan looked at the strange-shaped object placed in the middle of the box with some disappointment.

It was pitch black and the size of a thumb. It was barely visible as a ball, but its surface was extremely ugly with potholes.

Just as Su Yan was wondering what it was, a noise came from the window.
