Gu Ningning suddenly felt her wrist loosen, and then she saw that Gu Changlin's face was almost completely white, as white as Japanese paper, as if he had seen something scarier than a ghost.
Her heart trembled.
What just happened?
Gu Ningning looked back unconsciously and saw Gu Yuan standing under a tree not far away. There were fallen leaves floating on his shoulders. It seemed that he had been standing there for a long time.
Did dad hear their conversation just now?
She turned to look at Gu Changlin.
My brother suddenly became like this after hearing what his father said.
Is it possible that he is like this because of his father?
Gu Yuan brushed off the fallen leaves on his shoulders unhurriedly, and then walked over in one step or two, with a gentle smile on his lips. Today, he did not have the anger of yesterday, but was extremely kind and kind.
He put his hand on Gu Changlin's shoulder and said, "Changlin, where were you yesterday? You didn't come back all night. My father is really worried about you."
My hands are ice cold.
This was Gu Changlin's first reaction when Gu Yuan came closer.
It seemed to freeze him to the bone. When he heard Gu Yuan say he was worried about himself, he couldn't help but tremble slightly all over his body, and his stomach began to churn violently.
Gu Ningning was still standing by and said, "Yeah, dad, I'm also curious about what he did! Look, he's injured all over his body!"
"Really? He's injured. Let me take a look." Like a loving father, Gu Yuan looked around to check on Gu Changlin's condition with great concern.
But Gu Changlin only felt that Gu Yuan's eyes made his hair stand on end.
He said stiffly: "I'm fine. I was just slightly injured. It's okay."
"Really? That's not possible, you have to take a good rest." Gu Yuan shook his head, his eyes swept over Gu Changlin's face, and he said with a smile, "Why don't you just stay at home to recuperate during this period, and don't run out all the time.
"
"Why?" Gu Changlin's eyes widened, "I don't want to stay at home all the time!"
Gu Yuan glanced at Gu Changlin coldly, "Then if you don't want to be at the Gu family, where do you want to go?"
Gu Changlin was speechless.
He had nothing to say.
Just seeing the way Gu Yuan looked at him, he felt a bit of fear coming from his bones. Although he would be scared when Gu Yuan made this expression in the past, he didn't feel as scared as he does today.
"Okay, good boy, just stay at home during this period. When your injuries come, my father will ask the doctor at home to take a look." Gu Yuan patted his shoulder and said gently.
This kind of gentleness is now like a ghost urging death, and no warmth can be heard.
Gu Changlin shuddered, but didn't know how to refute Gu Yuan.
How dare he refute Gu Yuan?
Thinking of the words of the leader of the men in black, he couldn't help but feel sick to his stomach.
The disgusting feeling swept over him instantly, "Uh... uh... vomit..."
Gu Changlin fell to the ground and retched uncontrollably. He had worked hard all night yesterday and there was nothing in his stomach. All he could vomit out was acidic water.
"Brother, what's wrong with you!"
Gu Ningning's horrified voice sounded in her ears.
But Gu Changlin felt that the voice was getting farther and farther away from him, and green bile was still spitting out uncontrollably from his mouth. The sour and astringent taste spread in his mouth, like a hammer hitting his head hard.
.
He couldn't bear it and fell to the side.
"Brother!" Gu Ningning rushed forward and said in panic, "What the hell is going on, dad, brother, what is going on..."
Gu Yuan looked at all this indifferently and said indifferently: "You go find the doctor and come over and take a look, and he will leave it to you to take care of."
After that, he left without looking back.
Gu Ningning hugged Gu Changlin and looked at everything at a loss.
No matter how stupid she was, she still noticed something was wrong with Gu Yuan at this moment. How could her father, who used to be very worried when he saw them injured or sick, act like a stranger and have such a cold attitude?
He actually didn't care about Gu Changlin?
After getting rid of Gu Ningning and Gu Changlin, Gu Yuan couldn't suppress his anger. Even the flower pots on the roadside could not escape his vicious hands. He kicked them all over and was still cursing:
"Why, why, you're not dead yet!"
"How long is she going to torture me?"
"Su Qin, this is your good daughter. She was born just like you to defeat me!"
"Damn, damn, damn, damn..."
Gu Yuan muttered these two words repeatedly.
Emotions were like an evil dragon that was about to swallow Gu Yuan.
I don’t know how long I vented my anger, but the flowerpot in front of me was almost broken into rubbish, and the flowers that were originally growing happily turned into dead flowers and willows on the ground.
Gu Yuan was still angry and stomped on the flowers and plants.
"Gu Changan, since you must go against me, then don't blame me for being cruel."
"I originally wanted to give you a happy one."
After saying that, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The servant came over tremblingly at this moment and said cautiously: "Master Marquis, His Highness Prince Xiao would like to ask you to come to the palace to have a talk. The carriage is outside. Do you want us to refuse?"
Hearing this, Gu Yuan sneered and said, "You really know how to make things happen. You chose this time specifically to come here."
I thought Prince Xiao also knew that Gu Changan was safe and sound, so he hurriedly asked him to go to Prince Xiao's Mansion.
"Forget it, no need to refuse, let's go."
Gu Yuan waved his hand indifferently.
He already had an idea in his mind.
Since Gu Changan's fate is so tough, he can only resort to roundabout ways. Although Liu Weiqing is useless, that dialect is not a smart person, so maybe he can win over him in the future.
Then be a favor and help Fang Yan.
He set off for Prince Xiao's Mansion.
After he left, a pigeon flew out of the house.
The pigeon flew over the city gate, across the suburbs, across the road, and finally stopped at a temple.
In the temple, the man in black stepped out, saw the pigeon and stepped forward, opened the mailbox at its feet, took out the note and read it quickly, then turned and walked into the incense room.
A man sitting with his back in the room asked: "What news has come again?"
The man in black whispered: "Gu Yuan's assassination failed, and now he has been called to the palace by King Xiao to hold him accountable."
"Yeah……"
The man smiled, then clasped the teacup in his hand and asked, "How is Gu Changan?"
"In the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, our people can't enter and don't know the situation." The man in black replied.
The man asked: "You think she is a weak woman, how on earth did she escape two assassinations?"
"This subordinate doesn't know... none of the people sent at that time came back alive. I really don't know how she survived. Maybe the national master saved her?" said the man in black.
The man shrugged, "With Yun Heng protecting her, there is really nothing we can do against her."
"It seems that this marriage must continue, but we cannot let others get there first."
"That is to..."
He smiled and said, "Is Liu Weiqing's injury almost healed? It's time for him to come in handy."
