After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 267 Xue Family
hiss~
This girl is really holding a grudge!
Song Lan glanced at the sky, which suddenly became overcast, after the pale golden soul was enveloped in a bloodthirsty aura.

He glanced again at the invitation that seemed to have caused fluctuations in the pale golden ghostly aura.

The Xue family?

She frowned slightly, only to find that even she couldn't see where the pale golden soul came from.

It seems that this person does not exist in this world.

Even in the causal relationships related to the Xue family, there are no clues about the identity of the pale golden soul.

That's quite interesting.

Song Lan raised an eyebrow, casually picked up the invitation, and seemed to be thinking about something.

The pale golden soul became even more agitated.

The ghostly aura surged, seemingly threatening to engulf the entire Liu family in a veil of malevolent energy.

"Take it easy."

Song Lan patted the forehead of the pale golden soul with a hint of displeasure.

The ghost's eyes, which were originally crimson, instantly became clear.

The malevolent aura that had permeated most of the Liu family's residence vanished completely.

"I just now?"

The pale golden soul looked at Song Lan with a somewhat bewildered expression.

Song Lan then tossed the invitation to the pale golden soul.

The moment she received the invitation and opened it, her pale golden soul felt a pain that seemed to crush it.

Roar! !

She opened her mouth wide and let out an inhuman roar.

This time, however, there was no bloodthirsty aura surrounding the area, so it didn't affect the entire Liu family.

The pale golden soul felt as if its head was being stirred into a paste, and its head was throbbing with pain.
-
Su family.

Tan Ci and Su Wenheng both initially thought that Su Xianyun might have misremembered, or perhaps she had mistaken the person from the very beginning. Xue Wan had been living well in the Xue family mansion all these years.

She also frequently organizes gatherings and invites people to enjoy flowers and sightseeing; she is a very sociable and charming person.

If the Xue family hadn't said they wanted to keep Xue Wan at home for life, leading people to speculate whether she had some unknown ailment, the Xue family's doorstep would probably have been worn down by suitors long ago.

"...Before, I thought maybe Yun'er had mistaken someone for someone else, but now, looking at this invitation, I realize something is wrong."

"I've never told anyone else that Yun'er has woken up except for Gui Xiang and the others."

"Where did this Miss Xue find out about the news? And by such coincidence, she sent the invitation directly to our home, specifically inviting Yun'er to that place called Changsheng Flower Viewing. Isn't that strange?"

Tan Ci tapped her index finger lightly on the invitation, thinking and thinking, but still couldn't figure it out.

"Should we go and ask Miss Song what she thinks?"

Su Wenheng made the suggestion.

He added, "Perfect timing, I also wanted to discuss this matter of Liu Tian with Miss Song..."

His voice was slightly hesitant: "I feel that the one surnamed Zhang has already taken the bait."

He knew all too well how much the Zhang family wanted to cultivate a top scholar to serve as a symbol of their status.

Now that they know the imperial court is going to establish a special imperial examination, how could they not be tempted?
Once you've set your mind on it, it's only a matter of time before you fall for it.

"I just don't know how to steer the direction towards a choice between two options..."

Su Wenheng was somewhat troubled, unsure whether Liu Tian had understood his hints or would cooperate with him.
-
Liu Tian was also surprised that Su Wenheng would suddenly come and specifically ask to see him.

When they met, it was all for no apparent reason; they would test his studies.

In the past, he would have been very happy to receive guidance from a renowned scholar like Su Wenheng.

But now...

Fate is beyond our control; all we do is in vain.

Where is there any joy to be found, let alone any hope for happiness?
