Lu Yebai drove her to the Lu Family's home. All the way, Meng Xi'er sat there, looking out the window without saying a word.
Back at the Lu house, Meng Xi'er got out of the car and stood at the front door of this luxurious villa. Although she had just left yesterday, returning today, she felt an inexplicable sense of alienation.
The servants passing by greeted Lu Yebai. The man took her hand and went inside, where Mrs. Lu was sitting on the sofa. When she saw them, she stood up immediately.
Meng Xi'er noticed that Mrs. Lu looked a lot more haggard.
Looking at the fine wrinkles at the corner of her eyes, she felt a little sad. Truth be told, Mrs. Lu had never done anything bad to her. Instead, it was she, who had personally brought her, a prisoner with no family, back from prison.
Even if her intentions hadn't been altruistic, the kindness she showed was genuine.
