And that was exactly what Lin Feng did.
After breakfast, he set his cup down and rose to his feet without much explanation.
His gaze swept across the courtyard before settling on Ling Lan.
"Come with me," he said simply.
There was no room for misunderstanding.
Ling Lan's heart skipped a beat.
She immediately stood up, her movements almost instinctive, and followed after him without the slightest hesitation like a devoted wife answering her husband's call.
As the two disappeared toward the inner chambers, the atmosphere at the table visibly shifted.
The remaining women exchanged glances. Curiosity flickered in their eyes.
"What do you think he's planning?" Chen Nuo whispered, unable to hide her curiosity.
Yun Wanqing didn't answer right away, though her gaze lingered thoughtfully in the direction Lin Feng had gone.
"Whatever it is… it's not something ordinary," she said quietly.
Li Zhiyan narrowed her eyes slightly, her thoughts moving faster than the others.
