Chapter 158: An Accident
Nevertheless, she just could not let the Huo Mansion know that she spent 5,000 upon such a dress because of her irrational anger.
She might be the lady of the Huo Mansion, but there were other ladies at the Huo Mansion... what if she fell into disgrace because of this incident!
Huo Wei just could not imagine that consequence.
She said with a shivering voice, “Okay... okay... you, go to the mansion and ask my mom for some money.”
The maid left, shivering from head to feet.
Since Huo Wei was willing to pay for the dress, Jinxiu Pavilion spared a seat for her so she could wait.
Lady Lian asked the salesboy, “Who was the lady that just left?”
“Well... I never met her before, but I heard that she is from the Gu Family.” The salesboy said based on his memory.
“Okay.” Lady Lian answered, saying nothing more.

Outside Jinxiu Pavilion.
Qing and Fu Bao were laughing so hard. The whole thing was so funny. Sword One was still holding her laughter.
Zhou Huaijin was showing a faint smile on his face the entire time. Yan was so much fun.
“Lady Chaoyan, how did you know that Miss. Huo would bid against you, what if she had not?” Fu Bao asked with confusion.
“She definitely would.”
“Why?” Fu Bao did not understand why Lady Chaoyan was so certain about this.
“Because she thinks that she is better than me. So of course she will bid against me. But most importantly...”
“What?” Fu Bao asked with a curious expression on the face.
“She is not smart enough to understand her own abilities. Which smart people would do that?” Gu Chaoyan said with a serious expression on her face.
Fu Bao thumbed up at Gu Chaoyan.
After the incident at Jinxiu Pavilion they realized that evening was approaching.
Gu Chaoyan was thinking about the fruit trees in the space, so she said, “Let’s just go home now, we can do the shopping again when we all have time. Oh by the way...”
“...”
“When the stores are ready, I would like to take a trip to the mountains.”
She was telling Zhou Huaijin about that.
Zhou Huaijin nodded. “I will give you a lift home. The staff will be ready tomorrow for you to use. Tell them what they are supposed to do.”
“Do you have other staff like Fu Bao?” Gu Chaoyan asked.
“I have many.” Zhou Huaijin answered.
“Then get several ready, let Sword One guide them. And no more arguing, just toss the original staff out of the stores.” Gu Chaoyan said seriously.
Fu Bao was dumbfounded... She was more resolute than the Lord! But... He liked that!
As they were talking, they already arrived at the gate of the Gu Mansion.
Zhou Huaijin did not enter the mansion, so Gu Chaoyan left the wagon and returned home with Qing and Sword One.
The moment they entered the room Chen Fu said with an anxious expression on his face, “Miss, go to the front yard, Madame Gu is asking for you.”
Gu Chaoyan nodded. She already knew what the matter was, so she was not anxious at all.
As they came to the front yard, Madame Gu said with a face of disappointment at the sight of Gu Chaoyan. “Chaoyan, the son of the officer of the Ministry of Revenue is gone. Your marriage arrangement is gone too, I am so sorry...”
