Chapter 152: Missing Me?
“Lord Huai’s Mansion.” Gu Chaoyan said calmly, as if she could visit such a place whenever she wanted.
Madam Gu’s bellowing words got stuck in her throat. She swallowed the whole thing.
Soon she showed an expression of respect. “So Lord Huai is asking for you? Just go, don’t be late. His errand has the highest priority.”
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
Seeing Madam Gu’s cheerful face, she thought that if Madam Gu knew what she was going to do with Lord Huai, she would totally stop smiling.
Nevertheless, Gu Chaoyan did not delay a minute. She had no intention of wasting any more time with Madam Gu. She left directly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing her leaving figure, Madame Gu had her hands crossed, mumbling. “Thanks, God, the Gu Family and Lord Huai’s Mansion are friends now!”
As she left the mansion Gu Chaoyan inhaled some air, feeling that it was totally fresh outside the mansion.
On the way to Lord Huai’s Mansion, Qing kept looking at Gu Chaoyan.
Gu Chaoyan could not help but ask, “Qing, what is the matter?”
Qing cringed. “Miss, are you still angry with Uncle Old Master? Uncle Old Master and Young Master went to the Government Office directly the other day, when they heard that something happened to you.”
In Qing’s heart they were nice people.
“I know.” Gu Chaoyan nodded.
It could not be denied that her uncle and cousin were truly people with kindness. Otherwise she would not have told her uncle about her plan. However, she knew a little bit more about the Lin Family.
They were kind people, and her mother’s family. So she was definitely going to help them when necessary, but the favor they asked from her today was against her principles.
Also she was going to treat the Lin Family as an ordinary family of relatives.
Uncle was kind, but slightly stupid. If he was smart enough, he would not have come begging her for help. If she had helped him and given him more responsibilities in the future, she would probably bring him trouble.
Gu Chaoyan was even wondering if her grandfather gave up the position as the business family, because he knew that his son was not suitable to manage the imperial business.
Nevertheless, she had no way to find out.
With her eyes upon Qing, she said, “Qing, don’t worry. I won’t be mad at them, as long as they don’t hurt me for benefits.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmQing let out a sigh of relief and smiled.
Gu Chaoyan did not dwell upon that matter for too long. She wondered if it was because Qing, who was a few years older than her, had some past experience with the Lin Family, so she knew them better.
As she was talking they arrived at Lord Huai’s Mansion.
Sword One got off the wagon first. By the time Chaoyan got off the wagon, the gate of the Lord Huai’s Mansion was already wide open.
Uncle Zhou showed an affable smile. “Welcome, Miss. Gu. Lord is at the mansion, you are free to visit him now.”
Gu Chaoyan smiled. She was not yet fully used to facing Uncle Zhou, but Uncle Zhou did not tag along, so she went forward alone.
She had a deep memory of Lord Huai’s Mansion after spending a few days here. Sword One was a qualified guide too.
She was just thinking uneasily when Zhou Huaijin’s voice arose from a short distance away. “Yan, are you missing me?”
