Reborn as an abandoned daughter, she became a stunning genius

After Ling Chuge finished speaking, he almost raised his head to the sky.

An expression of "I'm awesome, don't you envy me?"

Seeing this, Jiang Ning shook his head helplessly.Sure enough, his personality hasn't changed at all.

The two of them reached an agreement and went back.

Just one night before the expedition, the head of the Gu family suddenly summoned Gu Qingyu.

At the same time, Yun Xiang Yun Qing was also called over.

At midnight, the living room was brightly lit.

The head of the Gu family sat in a high position with a serious expression.

"I wonder why my father called me now?" Gu Qingyu bowed slightly.

"Pah!" The head of the Gu family smashed the teacup on the ground, his brows filled with anger.

"They are all good servants taught by you. If Qingyi hadn't told me about this, would you have been planning to keep it secret from me?"

Facing the Gu family leader's anger, Gu Qingyu's face was calm and unaffected, "I wonder what my father said?"

"Father, my sister definitely doesn't know about this. She will go on an expedition tomorrow. You'd better finish the matter as soon as possible and let her go back to rest." Gu Qingyi suddenly jumped out to plead.

"How could she not know? If it weren't for her instructions, how could a mere servant have the opportunity to contact Young Master Xia Mansion! Mr. Xia Mansion, you don't want to receive him yourself, but you let a maid..." The head of the Gu family said angrily.

At this point, Jiang Ning finally understood that what happened tonight was because of her.

The purpose was to implicate Gu Qingyu by convicting her.

"Father, if you have something to say, you can say it directly. There is no need to beat around the bush." ​​Gu Qingyu said directly.

"Ask your maid yourself what she did." The head of the Gu family pointed at Yun Xiang.

Everyone turned their attention to Jiang Ning. Jiang Ning stood up and walked in front of everyone.

"The head of the family must have misunderstood. Apart from conveying a message to Mr. Xia once, I have not made any overstep." Jiang Ning said, his voice neither humble nor arrogant.

"Yun Xiang, please stop making excuses. I saw clearly the contact between you and Mr. Xia that day." Gu Qingyi deliberately spoke unclearly, leading to speculation.

"I wonder what the second young lady saw that day? Why don't you tell me about it?" Jiang Ning asked bluntly.

"Yun Xiang, I took your reputation as a woman into consideration, so I didn't say it in public. After all, it's not my face that would be shamed by saying it." Gu Qingyi once again avoided the important matter and said lightly.

Jiang Ning laughed angrily, how could there be such a hypocritical person.

Gu Qingyi's behavior directly established the personal relationship between her and Ling Chuge, so that no matter what she explained next, it would be regarded as a cover-up.

"Gu Qingyu, you are not strict with me and let her do whatever you want. If you offend Mr. Xia, our entire Gu family will suffer!" The head of the Gu family slammed his hand on the table, "Since you are going to go on an expedition tomorrow, I won't I’ll punish you too much, so hand over all the shops you’re holding and I’ll let Qingyi run it.”

"No!" Yun Qing said anxiously.

Jiang Ning has stayed at Gu's house for more than a month, so she naturally knows what Gu Qingyu's store means to her.Those shops were Gu Qingyu's mother's dowry.After Gu Qingyu's mother died, Gu Qingyu has been taking care of the store.

"It's not your turn as a servant to speak here!" The head of the Gu family angrily scolded Yun Qing.

"Hey, why is it so busy in the middle of the night?" A frivolous voice came from outside the hall.

The head of the Gu family immediately put away the anger on his face and showed a flattering smile to the visitor.

"It's so late, why isn't Mr. Xia asleep yet?"

"The sound of Master Gu's tantrum almost lifted the roof off the house. I could hear it clearly in the yard, so I couldn't sleep." Ling Chuge said, naturally sitting on the main seat and crossing his legs.

"I want to come and see what's so important that the head of the Gu family stayed up so late at night and lost his temper here."

"It's my fault for disturbing Mr. Xia's rest. Now that the matter here is over, I don't want to bother Mr. Xia anymore." The head of the Gu family said.

"It's over? How can that be okay? I came here specifically to see the show. I thought I heard you mention me just now? Come on, tell me what happened." Ling Chuge was reluctant.

"A few days ago, I was ordered to deliver a message to Mr. Xia, but the second lady saw it. The second lady said that Mr. Xia had an affair with my servant. For this reason, I was going to punish the eldest lady for being lax in his duties." Jiang Ning said directly.

Ling Chuge could barely hold back his laughter after listening to it.

After calming down, Ling Chuge said seriously.

"I'm a little curious. What did Miss Gu Er see that day? Why didn't I know about these things?" Ling Chuge's words made Gu Qingyi's face turn pale instantly.

"Second Miss, you won't tell me? Then let me tell you." Ling Chuge stood up, raised his voice and spoke, "A few days ago, Yun Xiang was ordered to send me a message. When I saw Yun Xiang, I felt that she was an old friend of mine. It was similar, so I asked a few more questions. Other than that, there was nothing else."

Ling Chuge personally came forward to clarify that whether it was true or false, the head of the Gu family had to give him this face.

"I see, there is such an inside story about this matter. If Mr. Xia hadn't clarified it, I would have misunderstood Qing Yu today." The head of the Gu family said immediately.

"It's just a small effort, but it's obvious that someone is stirring up trouble in this matter. The head of the Gu family should not be lenient on the person who deserves to be punished." Ling Chuge left these words and went straight back to his yard.

After Ling Chuge left, the head of the Gu family's face darkened, "Pass my order, Gu Qingyi will be grounded from today on, and he will face the wall and think about it for a year."

"Dad!" Gu Qingyi was shocked and looked at the head of the Gu family in disbelief.

"Take him down." The head of the Gu family turned his head, looked at Gu Qingyu, and said, "Qingyu, I have wronged you for this. We will go on an expedition tomorrow, so go back and rest early."

Gu Qingyu didn't have any hope for the head of the Gu family. He nodded slightly and took Yun Xiang Yunqing back to the courtyard.

Early the next morning, the army assembled. As the deputy commander of the army, Gu Qingyu, wearing silver armor, set off with the army.

On this trip, besides Yun Xiang and Yun Qing, there was also Ling Chuge who was accompanying me.

Seeing that Mr. Xia was quite talented and might be able to help when he arrived on the battlefield, Gu Qingyu did not refuse Ling Chuge's request to accompany him.

In addition, Jiang Ning also saw a familiar face in the team.

Wearing the armor of an ordinary soldier, he followed Gu Qingyu closely, his eyes always chasing her.That was the boy Gu Qingyu brought back from the battlefield a month ago.

This month Jiang Ning learned that this boy's name was Lu Qi, and he was an orphan without a father or a mother.

In order to thank Gu Qingyu for saving his life, Lu Qi asked himself to stay with her and serve her.

On this expedition, it was only after Lu Qi requested in every possible way that Gu Qingyu agreed to take him along.
