Chapter 139 - 139: What Is Your Relationship With Gu Qingyou?
Seeing Ji Wanwan’s beaming face, the First Elder’s mouth twitched. “Well, Great Steward Gu said that he wanted to apologize to us…”
“That’s good. We can use this opportunity to get in touch with him!” Ji Wanwan said happily.
The First Elder couldn’t help but sweat. He wiped the sweat from his forehead. “I said that you don’t like to be disturbed by others, so I…1 rejected.”
Ji Wanwan looked as if she had just eaten a fly. “I’m really impressed by you. 1 don’t care so much. Since you don’t want to let Great Steward Gu to approach us, then you can go and get in touch with him instead. Anyway, you have to think of a way!”
The First Elder nodded bitterly and obediently agreed before retreating.
“Wait a minute.” Ji Wanwan’s expression was very serious. “1 think you know the severity of the situation. There are many people waiting for my uncle to die. Don’t leak the news.”
“Of course. Don’t worry, Eldest Miss.” The First Elder bowed and quickly left the room.
At the same time, Su Qian and Lady Wen chatted and laughed as they helped Lady Zhou out of the auction house.
“Let’s go home quickly. I have to tell Master and Mu Feng the good news!” Lady Zhou was ecstatic. She seemed to be more energetic than before. It was obvious that she was happy from the bottom of her heart.
“Then let aunt bring grandmother back first. 1 will send the prince off.” Su Qian took the initiative to say.
“Qian’er? Are you sure?” Lady Zhou looked at Su Qian worriedly.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry, Grandmother.” Su Qian insisted.
“Mother, Qian’er is a grown-up girl and has her own ideas.” Lady Wen could tell just now that the current Qian’er was no longer the Qian’er from six years ago. She definitely could not be underestimated.
“Alright then.” Lady Zhou turned her head to look at Xiao Yan, “Then I’ll have to trouble Your Highness.”
“Take care, Old Madam and Young Madam.” After Xiao Yan finished speaking, Dong Yan went forward to serve them. Xiao Yan and Su Qian boarded the carriage one after the other.
The carriage moved very slowly, and only Xiao Yan and Su Qian were in the luxuriously decorated carriage.
“You did well.” Xiao Yan poured a cup of tea for himself and Su Qian respectively, then pushed Su Qian’s cup of tea in front of her. “No wonder you didn’t want me to interfere. It turns out that when you opened Qian Yao Pavilion, you had already thought of how to take down the Su family.”
“After all, it’s a plan that had been prepared for six years. If it fails right away, wouldn’t 1 be ashamed?” Su Qian looked at Xiao Yan. “I’m very curious. How did Your Highness know what I wanted to do?”
“Qianqian, I understand you, that’s all.” Xiao Yan replied indifferently.
“Your Highness, you really know how to joke.” Su Qian didn’t think much of it. She didn’t have much of a relationship with Xiao Yan, so there was nothing he didn’t understand. It was just that Xiao Yan could tell that she despised the Su family. It didn’t matter to her whether the Su family knelt and apologized or not.
However, this matter was extremely important to the Nangong family. The reason why she agreed was to get rid of the Nangong family’s worries.
She admitted that Xiao Yan had seen through her thoughts, which was why he had invited her grandmother downstairs in advance.
However, to say that Xiao Yan understood her, he is not quite there yet.
Xiao Yan didn’t retort and just smiled. “Qianqian, 1 have something I’m curious about.”
“What, is there something that the Ninth Prince can’t figure out?” Su Qian said as she picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.
“What’s your relationship with Gu Qingyou?” Xiao Yan’s tone was lazy and seemed to be calm, but the words he asked made Su Qian’s heart tighten..
