She followed Li Lian back to the Li Mansion, and after washing her face clean, Li Lian recognized her. Jiang Youyao summoned her courage, and in front of Li Lian, recounted the injustices she had suffered at the Jiang Family these past days. She had been forced to leave home and still hoped that Li Lian wouldn't reveal her situation at the Li Family to anyone else; if the Jiang Family found out, they would certainly take her back.
Li Lian was a man of compassion and seemed to take pity on her. Indeed, he didn't relay the matter to Li Zhongnan. He allocated a space for Jiang Youyao in his own courtyard to live in. She couldn't go outside for fear of being seen, so Jiang Youyao could only walk around the courtyard, always careful not to be seen by other members of the Li Family. Over time, she naturally grew bored and listless.
The only people she could see every day were these servants and Li Lian.
