His Rui

Chapter 485 Li Rong Is Not Allowed Inside Xi Manor

After Li Caihong left her courtyard, Li Rong immediately decided to go to Xi Manor. It was obvious that Li Caihong's threat of taking her own life had scared her very badly.

At the same time, she knew that if her husband came back from the Imperial Court then he would not let her go to Xi Manor.

So Li Rong thought that it was better to go to Xi Manor before Li Qiang would come back.

It seemed that Li Qiang had gone somewhere after the Imperial Assembly finished because even after Li Rong took almost half a shichen to make the preparation to go to Xi Manor, he still had not come back.

It was almost evening now and Li Rong still decided to go to Xi Manor. She checked all the things once more that she was going to take with herself to Xi Manor and then without informing anyone where she was going, she left for Xi Manor.

Inside her heart, Li Rong wished that all those things that followed her in a carriage would appease Li Rui a little bit and she would give her the ointment for Li Caihong.

Li Rong continued to think about all this during this small journey.

In the end, she concluded that Li Rui should give her the ointment for Li Caihong even without having any need of appeasing her.

After all, Li Caihong was Li Rui's sister and it was because of Xi Ying who was also Li Rui's husband that Li Caihong had such a hideous scar on her face.

While giving all these unreasonable reasons to her conscience that was also mocking her, Li Rong never remembered what kind of bad words her own daughter Li Caihong had spoken about Li Rui that made Xi Ying use his whip and shut Li Caihong's mouth.

Li Rong reached Xi Manor in another half a shichen.

She stepped out of the carriage with the help of her maidservant and looked at the huge entrance of Xi Manor.

However, just when she was about to step inside Xi Manor with her maid, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of Li Rong and blocked her way.

"Greetings to First Madam Li."

Li Rong stepped back with a frown on her forehead as she looked at the tall man who had just greeted her that too in a very cold voice. She wanted to say that it was better if he would not have greeted her at all.

However, before she could say that, the tall shadow guard spoke his next words angering Li Rong even more.

"If First Madam Li wishes to go inside Xi Manor, then this servant would like to inform First Madam Li that she is not allowed to go inside."

Li Rong's eyes widened with shock and anger and she looked at the tall shadow guard with an exasperated expression on her face.

"You…who are you to stop me?"

An Shing's face didn't have any expression as he looked at Li Ring and said coldly.

"This servant is Lord Xi's shadow guard and has the responsibility to guard the Manor from the people who can harm Madam Xi and Young Master Xi."

Li Rong's eyes couldn't help but had more anger after hearing these words.

Harm Madam Xi …

Was the shadow guard trying to imply that she would harm Li Rui…

Before she had been more surprised by the fact that Xi Ying had his shadow guards to protect the Manor. Even Li Manor didn't have any shadow guard as far as she knew.

However, her surprise soon vanished and was replaced with anger when the shadow guard said that she could be a harm to Li Rui and hence she couldn't enter Xi Manor.

With clenched fists, she glared at the shadow guard who didn't seem to be affected by her glare at all.

Instead, it was she who was left frustrated and looked away from his cold eyes.

Li Rong really wished to leave from there.

However, whenever she remembered her purpose of visiting Xi Manor and Li Caihong's threats, her feet would not move at all.

Swallowing down the humiliation she was feeling because of still standing at such a place where she was not welcomed at all, Li Rong said to the shadow guard in a quite cold and harsh tone.

"Does Your Lady know that I am here? I am sure that Rui won't appreciate your actions if she would come to know that you sent her Elder Aunt away from Xi Manor's gates just like this."

Am Shing's face was emotionless but he frowned in displeasure. He was actually thinking over whatever Li Rong said just now.

Would Lady Li actually be angry if he sent Li Rong away?

However, his master had especially asked him last time that anyone from the first household of the Li family should not be allowed to enter Xi Manor.

But now Lady Li was also equal in command in Xi Manor.

He didn't want to anger Li Rui because An Shing knew that that would be making his master angry.

With a pair of cold and emotionless eyes, he looked at Li Rong and then walked to the Manor's gates.

There he called for the servant whoever he saw and asked her to inform Li Rui about Li Rong's visit.

He especially asked the servant that he should ask Lady Li whether Li Rong should be allowed to step inside Xi Manor or not.

The servant left from there while An Shing still stood there.

Li Rong again felt humiliated seeing him standing there as if he was afraid that she would enter Xi Manor in his absence.

However, the naive her didn't know that Xi Ying's shadow guards didn't fear anyone except Xi Ying.

Even if An Shing would not have been there and would have tried to enter Xi Manor, she still would not have been able to meet Li Rui that easily.

After all, Xi Ying had made sure to make Xi Manor secure enough for Li Rui and her son.

The servant came back soon.

"Madam invited First Madam Li to Plum Courtyard."

When the servant announced Li Rui's decision, An Shing couldn't help frown while Li Rong looked smug.

Fortunately, Li Rui still knew what she should do or what she should not.

With this thought, she stepped inside Xi Manor with her maid and An Shing didn't stop her at all this time.
