Chapter 141 - 141: Being Tricked
“Well, those two people from earlier were really bad. I didn’t know them, but everyone believed them. If it weren’t for Beautiful Sister’s intervention, I might have been taken away by them,” Feng Yuanxi said, his voice filled with gratitude.
Gu Qingluan touched his little face tenderly. “It’s alright now. The bad people have been taken away to see the authorities and will be locked up in prison. They won’t be able to cause harm to Xiao Yuanxi or other children anymore.” “Beautiful Sister, I’m scared… Can I hug you?” Feng Yuanxi took the opportunity to ask.
Gu Qingluan looked at his pale face and felt a pang of pain in her heart.
“Of course you can!”
She crouched down, opened her arms, and embraced Feng Yuanxi.
Feng Yuanxi trembled slightly as he sensed the fragrance emanating from her, his excitement causing his body to shake.
However, Gu Qingluan mistook his trembling for fear, feeling even more sympathetic towards him. She harbored an intense hatred for the two women in her heart and resolved to inform the people from Yunhai Tower to notify the authorities. Those two would definitely not be let off lightly.
“Miss Gu, thank you for your assistance earlier,” Jing Feng spoke up at the right moment.
If he hadn’t spoken up, who knew how long they would have remained in that position.
This time, the young master was safe and sound, thanks to Miss Gu.
However, they couldn’t continue holding him like this forever.
If the master were to find out…
Jing Feng shuddered at the thought.
Hearing Jing Feng’s voice, Gu Qingluan suddenly remembered the bastard.
She had promised not to seek out Xiao Yuanxi.
In the heat of the moment, she had gone against her promise, but she couldn’t continue getting involved with Xiao Yuanxi.
She let go and gently pulled Feng Yuanxi away from her embrace.
Feng Yuanxi felt a sense of disappointment, and from an angle where Gu Qingluan wasn’t paying attention, he glanced at Jing Feng.
Jing Feng forced a bitter smile.
He didn’t want to offend the young master either.
But he definitely couldn’t disobey the master.
He changed the subject, his gaze falling on Gu Xiaonan’s face. “And this is…”
“I’m Gu Xiaonan.” Gu Xiaonan blinked at Jing Feng. Although he had the same face as Feng Yuanxi, he was livelier and more mischievous.
A familiar feeling washed over Jing Feng.
He looked at his small face with uncertainty.
This face looked exactly the same as Feng Yuanxi’s disguised appearance.
Perhaps that was why he found it familiar?
With this thought in mind, Jing Feng no longer doubted and nodded at Gu Xiaonan. “Thank you, Young Master Gu, for your help.”
“No need to be polite!” Gu Xiaonan waved his hand, exuding confidence.
Jing Feng secretly admired Gu Xiaonan.
Young Master Gu was young, but he had extraordinary bearing. He didn’t pale in comparison to their own young master at all.
Meanwhile, Feng Yuanxi didn’t want to part with Gu Qingluan. He invited her, “Beautiful Sister, are you also coming to eat here? Can I join you?”
“Young Master, have you forgotten your promise to the master?” Jing Feng quickly lowered his head, reminding him of his commitment to Feng Tianlan.
Feng Yuanxi frowned. “I haven’t forgotten. Father only told me not to look for Beautiful Sister, but we just happened to meet. Besides, Beautiful Sister saved me earlier. Shouldn’t I invite her to have a meal and thank her?”
Jing Feng had no words to say in response.
Feng Yuanxi looked up at Gu Qingluan. “Beautiful Sister, can I treat you to a meal? Is that alright?”
Seeing his hopeful eyes, Gu Qingluan couldn’t bring herself to refuse.
“Alright!”
“That’s great!” Feng Yuanxi showed a happy smile and turned to Jing Feng. “Mr. Jing Feng, please arrange a private room for us.”
But weren’t they planning to eat in the main hall just now?
Why did they suddenly want a private room?
Jing Feng felt like he had been tricked.
However…
Forget it, the young master’s reasoning was sound.
Jing Feng looked at Feng Yuanxi’s joyful expression, gave up trying to stop him again, and agreed with a nod. He went to find the manager of Yunhai Tower to book a private room..
