Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Qingluan returned to the Feng Residence, avoiding the guests in the front courtyard and landing directly in the back courtyard. Upon learning that Qi Tianyou and Gu Hongkang were still waiting for her, she asked Han Xiao to accompany Xiaonan and Yuanxi while she went to see them.
Qingluan, I heard you wanted to see . Is sothing wrong? Qi Tianyou imdiately inquired with concern.
If it werent for an unexpected situation, she wouldnt have initiated a eting with him today.
And to et him, she kept him waiting for over an hour.
During this ti, there must have been uncontrollable events.
Gu Qingluan shook her head. Its been resolved.
If you have any difficulties, dont hesitate to tell . You dont need to be polite with this prince, Qi Tianyou said.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Gu Qingluans mouth. Alright, thank you, Your Highness.
Qitian You nodded to her and left first.
Gu Qingluan then turned her gaze to Gu Hongkang, and the warmth in her eyes quickly faded.
While Gu Hongkang had been waiting here, he secretly used his divine sense to observe the entire mansion and found that not only was Gu Qingluan missing, but Feng Tianlan was also absent from the residence.
On their wedding day, the bride and groom mysteriously disappeared; sothing significant must have happened.
He suspected that Gu Qingluan had called him here because it was related to him.
He carefully scanned the entire mansion with his divine sense and finally realized that Gu Qiner, whom he brought with him, was also missing. A foreboding feeling welled up in his heart.
Seeing the indifferent look in Gu Qingluans eyes at this mont, the unease in his heart grew even stronger.
Luaner, why did you ask
Gu Qingluan interrupted his words, her red lips lightly opening, her voice cold and unfeeling. Old Master Gu, Ive told you before, that I and the Gu family should keep our distance from now on, right? It seems that the people from the Gu family havent taken my words to heart.
Being interrupted by a junior, Gu Hongkang felt displeased, but considering Gu Qingluans current status, he could only suppress his annoyance and asked thoughtfully, I dont know who has offended you. This old man will definitely not spare them!
Gu Qingluan chuckled, her tone as cool as a lake on an autumn day. Does Old Master Gu plan to send one person after another to co at in the future? With so many people in the Gu family, I should be on guard at all tis to avoid being targeted one day?
Gu Hongkang furrowed his brows, and his fierce eyes slightly darkened. I will emphasize to them once again and restrain them. Whoever provoked you this ti, you can punish them yourself. I wont interfere!
He suspected it was Gu Qiner.
He originally thought that the girl was cautious, but he didnt expect her to be so impulsive.
She was just a concubine-born daughter; with such audacity, she would not be shielded if she caused trouble now.
As for such an ignorant concubine-born daughter, if she was abandoned, then so be it, it wouldnt affect the Gu family in anyway.
What angered him was that the other party had co to provoke Gu Qingluan, causing him to endure Gu Qingluans reprimands here.
Having lived for several decades, he hadnt suffered humiliation many tis.
He was annoyed with Gu Qingluan, but he was also annoyed with Gu Qiner.
From his words, Gu Qingluan understood his aning and couldnt help but sneer inwardly.
The old man was as cold-blooded as ever, willing to abandon his own granddaughter at the drop of a hat.
In a sense, it made sense. He had already abandoned his own son; why would he care about a concubine-born granddaughter? Losing her wouldnt be a significant loss to him.
Xiaonan was already found, and Gu Qingluan didnt want to waste ti with Gu Hongkang in empty pleasantries. She went straight to the point, saying, As the saying goes, A childs actions reflect the upbringing and guidance provided by their parents. I heard that Gu Qiner has been by your side learning lately. If she makes a mistake, does Old Master Gu think its enough for her to bear the consequences alone?
Gu Hongkangs brows twitched. He had already agreed not to interfere with Gu Qingluans handling of Gu Qiner. What more did she want?
Gu Qingluan could read his thoughts from his expression and sneered.. I almost forgot to ntion, do you even know what mistake Gu Qiner made?
