Luna thought the woman before her was incredibly coarse.
Turning her head, she looked at Lu Zhi and said, “Are you allowing her to bully your aunt?”
Jiang Yining buried her head in Lu Zhi’s chest and spoke pitifully, “Honey, I’m your legally wedded wife. How can you tolerate someone else giving instructions to your wife?”
Lu Zhi’s chest was slightly sore from the collision, but he wore an indulgent smile and patted her petite head. “Don’t worry. I won’t let anyone mistreat you.”
“Your affection for me is still the best,” Jiang Yining said with a triumphant smile directed at Luna.
Luna was about to speak.
But then Lu Zhi coldly said, “She is my wife, please show some respect. Otherwise, kindly leave my house.”
“You are treating your aunt like this because of her?” Luna found it hard to believe.
“You don’t hold a candle to her, not even a single finger,” Lu Zhi ridiculed without hesitation.
Luna was left speechless and looked at Lu Zhi with a reproachful expression for a while before saying, “I know you’re upset with your family, whidr is why I won’t blame you for saying these things. But tonight, you must come with me to the House of Manchester. Your grandfather really wants to see you.”
“I won’t go with you,” Lu Zhi’s tone remained frigid.
“It’s not up to you,” Luna said and clapped her hands.
More than a dozen burly bodyguards came out into the courtyard, surrounding them.
Lu Zhi wore a gloomy expression and said, “Do you think they can force me to leave?”
“I know you’re skilled, but you need to think carefully. In Swedish territory, there’s nothing I can’t do. You may be able to protect yourself, but can you ensure the safety of the woman by your side every moment?” Luna threatened, “If you refuse to come with me, her life may be in danger at any time.”
Lu Zhi squinted slightly, his pupils filled with intense hostility.
This was a sign that he was getting angry.
Seeing this, Jiang Yining suggested, “Let’s go with her for a while. Don’t let this minor issue ruin our honeymoon.”
After all, the House of Manchester just wanted to invite Lu Zhi for a talk, and they wouldn’t do anything overly extreme.
So why not go?
Luna thought Jiang Yining was afraid of death. “You’re being sensible.”
Lu Zhi held Jiang Yining’s hand and said, “You’ll come with me.”
“Sure. If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, follow the dog. Where you go, I naturally have to go,” Jiang Yining replied with a bright smile.
Lu Zhi sighed and thought, “You’re quite the little drama queen, hatching sinister plans the moment you see enemies.”

In the end, both of them followed Luna Manchester to the House of Manchester.
The journey took about an hour.
They arrived at an ancient castle.
The castle was vast, resembling a palace.
Uniformed servants were visible everywhere, respectfully bowing to them.
Finally, they entered the building.
Luna, with her haughty demeanor, stopped Jiang Yining and said, “Wait here. I’ll take Ah Zhi to see Father.”
She believed that Jiang Yining was not worthy of meeting Lu Zhi’s grandfather.
“No, she must come with me. Otherwise, I won’t meet anyone,” Lu Zhi’s attitude was unwavering.
Luna’s beautiful face showed a displeased expression. “You’re just as stubborn as your mother.”
With noble Manchester blood running through her veins, she couldn’t understand why he insisted on being with someone of lower status. His mother’s fall from grace was such a disgrace, and he still didn’t seem to understand.
“You’re as arrogant and disdainful as the other members of the House of Manchester,” Lu Zhi retorted unapologetically.
Luna’s expression shifted a few times.
Jiang Yining walked alongside Lu Zhi, holding his arm, and said, “Honey, I’d like to admire the murals here. Why don’t you go with her first, and I’ll find you later?”
Jiang Yining was considering Lu Zhi, thinking that his grandfather had sent someone specifically to invite him. It should be a matter of great importance. Why would she, an outsider, meddle in?
“Did you hear that? She doesn’t want to go,” Luna added, descending the steps.
Lu Zhi looked at Jiang Yining. “Arc you really going to stay here alone?”
“Yeah,” Jiang Yining replied. “Don’t worry, nobody can bully me.”
She was just trying to avoid bullying others.
Lu Zhi hesitated for a moment and said softly, “I’ll be back soon.”
“Okay,” Jiang Yining smiled faintly.
Luna then led Lu Zhi away.
Jiang Yining stood alone in the spacious living room, admiring the belongings of this family. It had to be said that the House of Manchester had a long history, and even the casually arranged items in the living room had a history of over a hundred years.
Jiang Yining had some knowledge of Western culture, so she could discern the background of some of the items.
After a while, she decided to search for Lu Zhi since he hadn’t returned yet.
However, she heard voices coming from the staircase—one mature and one childlike.
“Miss Abby, please be careful and walk slowly.”
“Go away! I want to play. I don’t want to go to bed!”
The latter voice sounded quite young.
Intrigued, Jiang Yining walked over.
As she approached, a small figure collided with her in the hallway.
Jiang Yining was nearly knocked off balance but managed to stay on her feet. She lowered her gaze to see a blonde, blue-eyed little angel.
“Hey, who are you? Are you a guest at my house?” the curious child asked, gazing up at her.
“I’m Jiang Yining. I was invited by your family to be a guest,” Jiang Yining replied, impressed by the child’s delicate appearance. However, she also noticed that the child seemed to be unwell, with a hint of blue under her eyes, pale lips, and a lack of color in her cheeks.
“Miss Abby.”
A nanny rushed over, saw her young mistress with Jiang Yining, and quickly approached, trying to pull the child away.
“Miss, you’re not feeling well, you can’t interact with strangers.”
“Go away! I like to play with other people; don’t bother me!” Abby, who had taken a liking to Jiang Yining, pushed the nanny away and wanted to play with her.
However, the nanny refused to let her go.
As they argued, Abby suddenly began to breathe rapidly, clutching her throat.
The nanny was alarmed.
Jiang Yining noticed the situation and hurriedly approached, providing medical treatment.
“What are you doing?” the nanny exclaimed.
“Shut up! She’s having an episode, and I’m helping her,” Jiang Yining replied..
