Chu Yuxiao turned and confidently made his way toward a waterside pavilion.
Su Yan followed behind him, her mind filled with confusion.
Just now, the nanny had mentioned Lady Lan, and Chu Yuxiao referred to her as Aunt Lan.
Could it be that this Lady Lan was one of the Old Marquis's women?
But it was said that the Old Marquis and the Old Madam were very much in love; how could there be another woman?
Upon entering Lady Lan's room, Su Yan saw only a slender figure lying in bed beneath white curtains, accompanied by faint moans and coughs.
Chu Yuxiao shed his usual arrogance, slightly moved his sleeve, and respectfully greeted the person opposite:
"Aunt Lan, I've come to see you."
Su Yan gave him a curious glance, sensing that he held a great deal of respect for Aunt Lan.
"Is that you, Xiao'er?"
The woman opposite struggled to sit up, and the maids at her sides quickly opened the bed curtains and helped her into a sitting position, cushioning her back with a thick soft pad.
