Chapter 54: Shame
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Qinâer grabbed Gu Siâer, who was cursing loudly, and said, âEven Father and the Grand Madam canât do anything. If you keep making a fuss, youâll only suffer.â
...
Gu Siâer shivered in an instant.
She had forgotten.
Now that Gu Qingluan was acting all high and mighty, there was nothing she could do to stop her.
Gu Qinâer tried to approach Gu Qingluan but was blocked by someone.
She could only speak from a distance, âEldest Sister, no matter what, you are still our sister. Please come back to the Gu Residence often. Qinâer will always think of you.â
Gu Qingluanâs tone was cold as she replied, âLeave now, no need for a farewell.â
Regardless of Gu Qinâerâs intentions, it was best not to provoke her. If provoked, Gu Qingluan wouldnât hesitate to be ruthless.
Gu Siâer was enraged by Gu Qingluanâs words and wanted to argue back.
Gu Qinâer immediately covered her mouth and dragged her away.
Gu Qingluan continued to hold Feng Yuanxiâs hand and headed towards the kitchen.
Meanwhile, the entrance of the Jun Residence was bustling with activity.
Bags and packages were thrown outside the main gate.
The entire Gu family looked disheveled and defeated.
More and more onlookers gathered, pointing and gossiping about them.
Gu Zhicheng felt utterly humiliated and resented Gu Qingluan deeply.
If only he had known how heartless she would become, he would have dealt with her years ago!
Seated inside the carriage, Gu Zhicheng shouted angrily, âLetâs leave now!â He couldnât bear to stay there for another minute.
The coachman quickly grabbed the reins and urged the carriage to move.
The Gu family members were all expelled from the residence. While the master had a carriage to ride in, the servants had no choice but to continue on foot.
The servants, who usually flaunted their power, lowered their heads and hurriedly followed the carriage away.
The Gu familyâs second branch was not far away.
The news here spread to the second branch.
The Second Master of the Gu family furrowed his brow and expressed his dissatisfaction, âBig Brother is being too weak. He was actually driven out of our home by a little girl. The Gu familyâs reputation has been completely tarnished by the actions of the First Branch family!â
Ever since their acquaintance with Mr. Liu, the Second Branch family gained newfound confidence and stopped groveling before the First Branch family.
Instead, they held them in disdain.
âSend someone to investigate.â
âYes, sir.â
âAnd what about Mr. Liu?â
âThe Crown Prince and his entourage have just left Mr. Liuâs residence. Mr. Liu mentioned feeling tired and wanting to rest, so everyone in his residence refrained from disturbing him.â
âTake great care of him. We must ensure that Mr. Liu remains content and untroubled.â
âUnderstood, sir.â
The Second Master of the Gu family inquired further, âDid the Crown Prince and Mr. Liu engage in such a lengthy discussion?â
The butler didnât know how to respond, and the Second Master of the Gu family didnât expect to receive an answer from him either.
Outside the residence,
Feng Tianlan and Qi Tianyou noticed a crowd of people rushing in a particular direction.
Curious, Qi Tianyou asked a nearby guard, âWhat is happening over there?â The guard provided a brief account of the situation.
Qi Tianyou clicked his tongue disapprovingly and commented, âMiss Gu certainly isn ât holding back. â
Recalling the events of that night, Feng Tianlanâs voice dripped with sarcasm as he uttered, âWhat an audacious woman!â
Qi Tianyou looked at him in astonishment, surprised by his sudden use of derogatory language.
Feng Tianlan remained stoic, his gaze focused, as he caught sight of a small figure pushing through the crowd.
His eyes narrowed, and he swiftly strode towards the Jun Residence. Puzzled, Qi Tianyou questioned, âHey, Mr. Lan, what are you doing?â
In a matter of seconds, Feng Tianlan had already distanced himself several yards away.
Qi Tianyou hurriedly followed suit, trying to keep up with him.
Meanwhile, amidst the crowd, Gu Xiaonan held a small fox in his arms, while a green parrot perched on his shoulder. Upon hearing from the passersby that this was his motherâs home, he eagerly made his way through the throng of people.
Suddenly, he felt a firm tug on the back of his collar, lifting him off the ground.
Startled, the parrot named Xiao Mei flapped its wings and screeched, âYou ugly monster! Let go!â
The parrot fiercely pecked at the manâs hand, which held onto Gu Xiaonan.
Angrily, Feng Tianlanâs icy gaze zeroed in on the green parrot..
