That night, information about the femme fatale appeared in front of Li Xiaoran.
Li Xiaoran looked at the information one by one with amusement in her eyes.
“No wonder she asked me to ask around about her first. If it were anyone else, they would definitely be so frightened that they wouldn’t want to see her again!”
Luo Cheng had just finished dealing with the matter at hand. When he heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he recalled the information he had seen previously and raised his eyebrows.
“It seems that you still haven’t changed your mind?”
“Why should I change my mind? I like women like Meng Yan! This is what a person should be like, especially a woman!” Li Xiaoran tilted her head as she looked at Luo Cheng and said, “She’s self-reliant and doesn’t rely on her family. She can do whatever she wants. If others want to control her, they’ll be controlled by her instead. She doesn’t have to be a noble. She’s a noble herself.
Her fate is in her own hands! How good is that?!”
Luo Cheng nodded. He agreed with Li Xiaoran’s opinion.
“To be honest, with Meng Yan’s personality, she’s indeed an oddball in the capital. She’s out of place with the people around her! However, if you really want to become friends with her, she’s the most reliable person. It’s just that such a person won’t become friends with others that easily. She seems easygoing, but she’s actually very guarded. Only after you truly obtain her approval will you have a friend worthy of entrusting your life to!”
Li Xiaoran didn’t expect Luo Cheng to say such a thing, so she asked in surprise, “You have a very high opinion of Meng Yan! In that case, you don’t object to me becoming friends with Meng Yan? I wonder if I might cause you trouble.”
Luo Cheng shook his head with a smile. “Don’t worry about this. Do whatever you want! I told you, you don’t have to worry about me. I’ll support you no matter what you do!”
With Luo Cheng’s permission, Li Xiaoran was naturally relieved.
To be honest, she didn’t know much about Meng Yan. She just felt that she was a kind person worth befriending.
However, after reading about Meng Yan, she liked Meng Yan even more.
Mene Yan was carefree and caDable.
Befriending such a person was very beneficial to her!
The next day, when Meng Yan happened to walk out of a textile shop, she saw Li Xiaoran standing at the side.
Looking at Li Xiaoran, who was standing beside her with a smile, Meng Yan raised her eyebrows.
“What? You still dare to look for me?”
“Why wouldn’t I dare to? Do you eat people, or do you plan to take advantage of me?” Li Xiaoran raised her eyebrows and asked.
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll ruin your reputation as the Seventh Prince’s consort?” Meng Yan asked.
“Me? What reputation do I have?” When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately pointed at herself with a smile. “I’m a country bumpkin. I was lucky enough to marry the Seventh Prince and go from rags to riches overnight. My reputation has been ruined long ago!”
Meng Yan couldn’t help but laugh at Li Xiaoran’s self-deprecation. ‘You know your reputation very well!”
“That’s right! I know myself very well. I wonder if you’re willing to befriend a country girl with an interesting soul like me without regard for my family background?” Li Xiaoran asked with a smile.
When Meng Yan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she laughed.
“If you don’t despise my reputation, why would I despise your background?
Let’s go. I plan to try new dishes in a restaurant. Why don’t we go together?”
“Alright!” Li Xiaoran nodded in agreement.
“Then get into my carriage!” Meng Yan said.
Li Xiaoran froze for a moment before nodding and walking straight towards Meng Yan’s carriage.
After Zi Cheng, who had been following Li Xiaoran, heard this, he quickly got into the carriage and planned to follow Meng Yan’s carriage.
After all, he was Li Xiaoran’s guard now, so he naturally couldn’t be too far away from her.
After getting into the carriage, Li Xiaoran realized that there was actually something strange about this carriage.
It looked inconspicuous from the outside, but the inside was very comfy.
“This carriage feels comfy. Did you ask someone to modify it? I actually don’t feel any bumpiness at all!” Li Xiaoran sized it up as she said.
When Meng Yan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she said in surprise, “You don’t look like a girl from the countryside at all! No wonder the Seventh Prince married you. It seems that you have some unique qualities. It’s just that the others don’t realize your strengths! ”
“Why should others see my strengths? It’s fine as long as the people I care about see my strengths! I’m already at the center of attention, so it’s better to keep a low profile!” Li Xiaoran chuckled and said.
When Meng Yan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, her eyes widened and she had a new understanding of Li Xiaoran.
“You’re really wise! Many people don’t realize this! However, you’re quite impressive. You kicked out Prime Minister Yan’s beloved granddaughter, Yan Xiaoqiao, just like that!”
“This person has already bullied me right to my face, so why do I have to worry so much? At this moment, I can do whatever I want! Besides, this matter isn’t over yet! I have to make Yan Xiaoqiao give up on my man!” Li Xiaoran said fiercely.
When Meng Yan saw Li Xiaoran’s fierce expression and heard her words, her eyes lit up.
“Not bad. As a woman, you should be like this! So-called virtuosity is all bullsh*t!”
“No, no, no. We should be virtuous women, but the standards of virtuous women being promoted in this society have been secretly changed by men. Truly virtuous women are actually completely different from the current ones!” Li Xiaoran expressed her opinion.
“Please elaborate!” This was the first time Meng Yan had heard of such a novel concept, so she was immediately interested.
After Li Xiaoran thought about it for a moment, she said, “A virtuous woman doesn’t despise the man she chooses when he’s insignificant. Instead, she encourages him, helps him, and promotes his ambition. When her man becomes too arrogant, she humbles him and prevents him from being controlled by his greed. When her man is in danger, she helps him resolve the crisis. When her man is misunderstood, she trusts him and understands him! ”
“What if the Seventh Prince takes in a concubine in the future? Don’t tell me he’ll be faithful to you for the rest of his life. Do you even believe it yourself?” Meng Yan asked.
‘Why not? There are faithful people in this world, so I’m willing to believe him. But believing them is one thing, and reality is another! I’m already prepared for the worst.” Li Xiaoran smiled and said..
