Chapter 141 Shen Lerong Cries Her Heart Out

What on earth happened?

She was just running out the door excitedly a moment ago, and now, not long after, she's back crying so sadly?

Could it be that I've been bullied? Who on earth dares to bully my people, Su Yue's people!

At this moment, Su Yue couldn't care less about watering the fruit trees with spiritual spring water.

He ran to Shen Lerong's door and heard heart-wrenching cries coming from inside.

She was extremely anxious, wishing she could immediately tear down the door and rush in to see what was going on.

"Le Rong, what's wrong with you? No matter what happened, please open the door first, okay? Don't cry yourself sick!"

Su Yue pounded on the door while shouting loudly.

However, Shen Lerong inside the house still didn't come to open the door; instead, she cried even louder.

Not only that, but Qiaoxiang, Qiaoxia and Qiaoyun, who were standing to the side, were also pacing around anxiously outside the door like ants on a hot pan, looking at each other helplessly.

But they couldn't actually tear down the door, so they had no choice but to wait outside.

Su Yue also squatted at the door the whole time, listening to Shen Lerong's wailing and watching the ants on the ground carrying food.

I don't know how much time passed, but the crying inside the house suddenly stopped.

Su Yue was initially watching with great interest as the ants carried away the crumbs of pastry she had just placed down.

She was startled when the crying stopped, then kicked the door open and rushed inside.

It turned out she had just cried herself to sleep. Su Yue had thought she was having a breakdown inside the house.

Shen Lerong suddenly sat up in bed, and when her eyes fell on Su Yue, tears instantly streamed down her face, and she cried out in heart-wrenching sobs.

Seeing this, Su Yue quickly walked over and gently patted Shen Lerong's head, trying to soothe her emotions.

However, when she saw Shen Lerong crying so hard, her heart tightened.

Tears streamed down her face like broken beads, turning her once delicate features into a pitiful sight.

"Alright, alright, stop crying, or your eyes will get all swollen! Tell me what happened, and we'll think of a solution together," Su Yue said softly, gently wiping away Shen Lerong's tears with a handkerchief.

Hearing Su Yue's words, Shen Lerong stopped crying slightly, but still sobbed, her voice choked with sobs as she cried out, "Waaah... Waaah... I have no home anymore... My mother is gone... Waaah... My father actually married another concubine... Waaah... Yue, I really have no home anymore..."

She would pause after each sentence, as if even breathing had become difficult.

This scene would move anyone who witnessed it. The loss of a loved one is a great tragedy in life, let alone the fact that the father remarried at this time.

For Shen Lerong, who had just learned of her mother's passing, this was undoubtedly adding insult to injury. No wonder she cried so heartbrokenly and devastated.

Su Yue held the sobbing girl tightly in her arms and gently patted her back.

He continued to comfort her, saying, "Le Rong, don't say that. Your mother in heaven certainly wouldn't want to see you so sad and upset."

And you still have us. This will always be your home, and no matter what happens, we'll always be by your side.

Perhaps it was Su Yue's warm embrace and comforting words that worked, and Shen Lerong gradually stopped crying, but due to the prolonged sobbing...

Her eyes were swollen like walnuts and she could barely open them.

Finally, she was so tired that she fell into a deep sleep in Su Yue's arms, with tears still clinging to the corners of her eyes.

Su Yue carefully placed the person on the bed and then gently pulled up the blanket, carefully tucking the corners of the blanket around the person.

After doing all this, he left the room with a few maids.

However, the door was damaged and could not be closed properly.

Su Yue gestured to the others, signaling them to move further away so as not to make any noise that might disturb Shen Lerong's sleep.

In reality, there are some things that even if others want to help, they are often powerless to do so.

Often, people can only rely on their own strength to break free from predicaments.

Take Shen Lerong's father for example. If he only wanted to vent his anger for Shen Lerong, he would have to teach him a lesson.

It might provide temporary relief, but if the father and daughter suddenly reconcile one day, Su Yue would end up in an awkward situation where she is disliked by both sides and doesn't please anyone.

Therefore, Su Yue wisely chose to remain a bystander in this matter.

Affected by Shen Lerong's heartbroken cries, Su Yue's originally fairly good mood turned sour.

To change her mood, she picked up a hat and put it on, deciding to go check out the shops on Gongchen Street.

When she stepped onto the street, she found that the children who used to beg everywhere were gone.

The streets looked much cleaner and tidier than they had been a few days ago as I walked along them.

Occasionally, you could hear people around you talking excitedly about the upcoming arrival of the Xiongnu princess.

"Huh?" Su Yue couldn't help but feel quite surprised, thinking to herself, "It's really unexpected that the Xiongnu tribe quelled their internal strife so quickly!"

Out of sheer curiosity, she ran and quickened her pace toward the shops on Gongchen Street.

When Su Yue arrived at the shop, she was greeted by a bustling and lively scene.

Inside the shop, everyone was extremely busy, each person working wholeheartedly.

In just a few days, the shop's renovation was nearing completion, a progress that surprised even Su Yue.

During this period, Lu Liang has been shuttling between the shop and the orphanage.

Just as Su Yue arrived, Lu Liang happened to be busy at the orphanage, and the two missed each other.

Upon entering the shop, Su Yue found it filled with a thick layer of dust, the air thick with dust particles, making it difficult to breathe.

She was choked by the fumes as soon as she entered and coughed incessantly. Without lingering, Su Yue quickly left.

However, just as she stepped out of the store, an accident occurred—Su Yue was suddenly knocked down by someone rushing towards her. Due to the force of the impact, her hat nearly fell off.

Fortunately, Su Yue reacted quickly and only took two steps back before regaining her balance.

In contrast, the guy who hit the person was much more unlucky.

In the instant he collided with Su Yue, he felt as if he had hit an indestructible wall.

A tremendous force struck him, sending him flying and crashing heavily three meters away from his original position.

The man, clutching his sore backside, was about to stand up and apologize.
