Chapter 545 - 545: Hand over the Antidote!
Upon hearing Gu Qingluans distant tone, Gu Qiners expression stiffened briefly, but she quickly adjusted and put on an affectionate smile, saying, Big sister, I heard youre getting married. I specially picked out a set of headpieces for you from Nirvana Pavilion. Shall we go inside and take a look?
Behind her stood a maid holding a large box.
Gu Qingluan responded with a faint expression, Its not necessary. Hasnt Grandfather told you that we should have less interaction between our two households?
This statement was quite impolite.
In the past, Gu Qiner might have lost her temper, but now there was no trace of anger on her face. She continued to smile gently, saying, Indeed, Grandfather didnt tell me, but no matter what, we are still sisters. Youre about to get married, and as your younger sister, I should do something. If big sister really doesnt want me to enter the mansion, I wont, but Ive carefully selected this set of headpieces. I hope big sister will accept it.
Gu Qingluan squinted her peach-blossom eyes as she scrutinized her.
Under Gu Qingluans scrutiny, Gu Qiner smiled openly, showing no signs of guilt.
It had to be said that Gu Qiner had a stable temperament.
Among the younger generation of the Gu family, perhaps no one could match Gu Qiners qualities except for Gu Lingxue.
Gu Qingluan signaled for a servant to accept the gift from the other party.
Gu Qiner wore a happy smile and said, Thank you for accepting it, big sister. I wont disturb you any longer. If big sister ever needs help, please send a message to the Gu Residence, and Ill come as soon as 1 can.
After saying this, she left with her maidt in a nearby carriage.
Gu Qingluan didnt pay much attention to this small incident.
Gu Qiner was just a concubine-born young lady in the Gu family. For the sake of survival, she would always find someone to rely on. In the past, she sought shelter with Gu Lingxue, but now it seemed she had shifted her target.
Holding her sons hand, Gu Qingluan entered the mansion.
All of a sudden, the sound of galloping horse hooves and the noisy approach of a carriage came from behind.
Miss Gu, please wait!
A familiar voice followed closely.
Gu Qingluan and her group turned around and saw a somewhat familiar carriage rushing towards them.
Seeing the newcomer, Feng Yuanxi instinctively stepped in front of Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan smiled and patted his head, saying, Dont be nervous.
Feng Yuanxi pursed his lips. Im not nervous.
He said so, but as he looked at the approaching carriage, there was a hidden coldness in his dark eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the carriage arrived at the gate.
Before the carriage came to a complete stop, the curtains were lifted by someone.
Yu Huarong emerged from the carriage and looked at Gu Qingluan on the steps. Her voice contained a hint of anger, Miss Gu, why did you try to harm my younger cousin?
Gu Xiaonan immediately jumped out of the carriage and wrinkled his nose in annoyance. Accusations didnt work the first time, and now you want to make the same accusation again? Old lady, even if you want to accuse someone, could you at least come up with a different story?
Yu Huarong cast a cold glance at him.
Gu Xiaonan was not someone who could be easily intimidated. He stared right back at her with wide-open eyes.
At this moment, Yu Huarong had no intention of arguing with a child. Her gaze shifted back to Gu Qingluan as she demanded, Hand over the antidote!
Gu Qingluan chuckled, 1 dont know what Miss Yu is talking about. Did your cousin faint again? Twice in such a short time? Either hes pretending, or theres something wrong with his health. In my opinion, you should take him to see a doctor instead of coming here to interrogate me about an antidote.
Seeing that Gu Qingluan refused to admit anything, Yu Huarongs eyes darkened slightly, and she spoke with a deep voice, 1 know youre behind this! Gu Qingluan, lets not beat around the bush.. What will it take for you to spare my cousin?bender
