1460 Gu Zhenkang’s Idea
Hearing what Gu Chaoyan said, De Fu looked very serious and stood by her, listening. Lady Chaoyan was the Phoenix Girl whom even the King could not offend, let alone him who was just a servant.
Gu Chaoyan nodded in satisfaction, saying and walking. “Chief De Fu, you are aware that I was driven out of the Gu Mansion, and I am just a weak girl who is moving back. I am actually quite worried that I will be bullied again when I am back, even though I am the Phoenix Girl. So I can’t promise that I won’t be bullied when I return.”
“…”
“The Phoenix Girl should not be bullied. If I am not feeling comfortable living there, I would rather go back to my own mansion. So, please, Chief De Fu, please take care of when we are at the Gu Mansion.”
!!
“…”
“I would be so grateful to you if you help sort things out,” Gu Chaoyan said pitifully, and stuffed so stuff into De Fu’s arms.
De Fu’s face twitched.
What was that?
He thought that there was sothing important, but Lady Chaoyan was just worried that she would be bullied… but he did not think that she looked like soone who would be bullied… she was so tricky!
De Fu was just about to express his emotions when he received the presents.
It was an open secret from the court. He was totally okay to receive the stuff, because the master had given it to him.
De Fu threw a look at the present, but wasn’t it sothing Lady Chaoyan just fetched from the storage house?
Well…
De Fu did not know what to say, but he accepted it anyway.
Having received the present, he said seriously, “Lady Chaoyan, don’t worry.”
“…”
“The King has asked to escort you back to Gu Mansion because he wants to support you, so no one from the Gu Mansion will dare to bully you. If anyone dares to, he or she is going against the King’s order, and I will deal with that.” De Fu answered with a smile.
That was exactly what he would do even if Lady Chaoyan did not say anything.
And now that she ntioned it, he would pay even more attention to it.
De Fu led her out.
Gu Zhenkang was waiting for them outside the gate.
De Fu greeted him politely. “Officer Gu, sorry for keeping you waiting.”
Gu Chaoyan stood with her back straight. She did not seem to have the intention of greeting him. She was Lord Huai’s future Princess Consort, and the Phoenix Girl. She did not have to greet a minor officer like Gu Zhenkang. Also, she had never accepted Gu Zhenkang as her father. Ms. Lin’s death was a conspiracy by him and Mrs. Gu, so he was not innocent at all. Mrs. Gu was just the culprit who ca up with the idea.
Gu Zhenkang waited for a while and yet failed to see Gu Chaoyan’s greetings towards him. He pursed his lips and dropped it, saying with a smile. “The luggage is already in the wagon. Let’s hurry before it turns dark.”
Gu Chaoyan nodded coldly.
Together with Sword One, they went into the wagon given by the court.
Gu Zhenkang was so embarrassed, but had no choice, but to go into the wagon from the Gu Mansion and ordered the coachman to hurry up.
He let out a sigh of relief, but the day was getting darker and darker.
