Lu Yuan didn't speak out yet because she feared her master would not agree. She thought to first let her master Shi Mengyan marry into the family and then discuss the matter further; by that time, her master would also agree to stand by her side in battle.
Han Li smiled. He had indeed noticed Shi Mengyan earlier and had deliberately allowed her to see that.
What Lu Yuan was planning, Han Li understood all too well, and this was exactly what he wanted.
Shi Mengyan, dressed in a light purple palace gown, was flawless in both beauty and posture, like a celestial maiden, her aura distinctly different from Lu Yuan's, yet complementary in some ways.
Despite being pulled by the gentle Lu Yuan, Shi Mengyan took the time to size up Han Li, her gaze calm, showing no timidity despite Han Li's status.
This was the first time she had met Han Li in person.
