pt over Xiao Yu, and he said in a cold voice, "I know, go down."Xiao Yu immediately turned around and walked toward the stairs. Hearing the door slam shut behind her, she let out a long sigh of relief...Lin Jinran was under house arrest. She couldn't leave unless she agreed to Mu Shaocheng's demands and accepted his arrangement for her future life.

Lin Jinran clearly agreed to Mu Shaochen's words, she could gain her freedom and didn't have to stay only in the room.

Such freedom comes at the cost of losing other freedoms.

She doesn't want such freedom.

Although it was house arrest, it was merely a restriction on her freedom. Her food and drink were carefully prepared to ensure she received adequate nutrition.

Even one day, Lin Jinran was led by bodyguards to a private clinic for a check-up to ensure the safety of the fetus.

At that time, she wanted to seek help from a doctor or nurse and run away. However, after observing, she found that the doctors and nurses at the private clinic were very familiar with the bodyguard, so it was definitely impossible for them to help her.

Dismissing the thought, and accepting the examination, Lin Jinfan was once again confined back to the ancient castle.

For three days, Lin Jinyan remained alone. Knowing that leaving for the time being was impossible, her restless emotions gradually subsided. She comforted herself by treating this place as a sanctuary for childbirth.

It's been almost four months, and her belly has started to show. Compared to other pregnant women, it's still a little small. The doctor checked her out and said the baby is healthy, so there's nothing to worry about.

Her only worry was that Su Yunjin and Lu Fengshi would suddenly discover she was gone, and whether they would be worried or even report her missing

What if Lu Fengshi's customers, who are waiting for her, get angry and cancel their orders

Not only would she lose her wages, but she might also cause trouble for Lu Fengshi if she canceled the order.

But now she is under house arrest, there's nothing she can do about it, all she can hope for is that they will call the police. Will the police come and rescue her

In the morning, Lin Jinran woke up earlier than usual. She would generally stand on the balcony basking in the sunlight until it became too intense, then return indoors to read some books.

Breakfast was delivered on time, as usual, with both Western and Chinese options for her to choose from.

After eating some random things, Lin Jinran walked around the table in circles and disappeared, unable to leave the room. Walking in circles was her only viable option.

After walking for what felt like countless circles, a faint cracking sound, "click," reached my ear.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be a bodyguard opening the door at this time. Is something wrong

Lin Jinran glanced at the door. The door creaked open slowly, and a woman in professional attire with exquisite features and short, neat hair appeared at the doorway.

"Sang Lan" Lin Jinran blurted out.

Sang Lan Mian stared at Lin Jinran expressionlessly, walked into the room, and said coldly, "I've withdrawn the bodyguards, you go."

Lin Jinran opened her mouth in astonishment, her face full of disbelief as she questioned, "You're going to let me go"

"Don't you want to leave" Sanglan raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Think!" the reply was firm.

She definitely wanted to leave, but she couldn't before. Hearing that it was possible now, she was eager to get out of there immediately.

However, Lin Jinran still carefully asked, "If I leave, will Mu Shaocheng cause you trouble"

"This is between me and Shaochen, you don't need to interfere." Sanglan clearly had much displeasure with Lin Jinyan's words, seemingly unwilling to say another word.

Lin Jinran clearly sensed Sang Lan's hostility towards her. Ignoring the confrontation in Sang Lan's tone, she sincerely said, "Thank you."

He walked to the bedside, picked up the bag, and strode out of the door without looking back.as Xu Ronghua or Lin ZhigangIt's easy to investigate her father's life with Xu Ronghua, but it's difficult to investigate the truth about her mother's death.Lin Jin's brow furrowed with worry. After...
