Bab 371: Chapter 371, Hooked His Neck

Weilan was startled, suddenly understanding something. Right, he was Mu Linyun, and now that this place had been discovered by Lu Yuanhe, he had to protect her reputation. He needed to leave this place.

His staying would be the most detrimental to her.

Moreover, his recent declaration of war against his own father was something that pained him deeply.

Standing on the stairs, she looked at him and said, "Come up here for a minute!"

He paused.

Raising his head, his eyes met Weilan's.

Weilan waited.

Lu Hechen pursed his lips but still walked up to her.

One step at a time, he ascended with great steadiness, and in a moment, he was before her.

Weilan stepped back, retreating a bit further into the corridor, and looked up at Lu Hechen.

Lu Hechen gazed down at her, his dark eyes unusually calm.

At this moment, he looked utterly disheartened and lacked any spirit.
