Even though Gu Ruanruan had already guessed that Gu Baiyu would not let her leave easily, she still didn't expect that Gu Baiyu would tell her what she had done so straightforwardly, which almost made her unable to hold back the expression on her face.
The two sisters looked at each other, with unwillingness and anger in their eyes.
In the end, it was Gu Baiyu who withdrew his gaze first.
She had more important things to do than chatting with Gu Ruanruan here.
No matter what the reason was for Xiao Yanlin to lie to her, she must go back immediately and ask clearly!
Gu Ruanruan was almost done, and he thought that Licorice wouldn't last long, so he wanted to leave.
However, as soon as she opened the door, she bumped into the old housekeeper outside.
Lingyu did not completely obey Gu Baiyu's arrangements this time. After Gu Baiyu asked her to go out, she asked the secret guards to guard Gu Baiyu's side, and she immediately went downstairs to find the old housekeeper.
The old housekeeper went down and discovered something was wrong.
The girl who sold her body to bury her father was not a girl from a poor family at all. Those people were a theater troupe that someone paid money to hire to act in a play!
The old housekeeper saw countless people and soon realized something was wrong. When he walked back, he ran into Lingyu who was rushing over.
When the two of them combined, okay, it must be Gu Ruanruan's fault again!
When they hurried back together, they happened to bump into Gu Ruanruan who was about to leave.
Gu Ruanruan looked very indifferent, nodded and wanted to leave.
Unexpectedly, Gu Baiyu's voice came from behind: "Hold her."
Gu Ruanruan suddenly turned around: "What are you doing?!"
Gu Baiyu ignored her anger: "What you are talking about is related to the prince. Although you have moved out, you are still the concubine of the prince's house in name. As the head of the house, I want to keep you for questioning. Do I need a reason?"
After saying that, without waiting for Gu Baiyu's second order, the secret guard immediately controlled Gu Baiyu!
Gu Baiyu didn't expect things to develop like this, and struggled: "What are you doing?! I told you this secret with good intentions, but you bite back like this?"
Gu Baiyu was completely fed up with her, "Stop her mouth!"
She was too polite to Gu Ruanruan in the past, which made Gu Ruanruan think that she was a good-tempered person!
The secret guard immediately blocked Gu Ruanruan's mouth. His movements were far from gentle. He hated this woman so much. If anything happened today, all of them would be punished because of this woman!
Seeing this, the old housekeeper quickly said: "Madam, those people who caused trouble are all members of the theater troupe. They said that someone gave them money. I guess they are trying to lure the people around you down because of Madam's soft heart!"
The old housekeeper's guess was good.
Gu Ruanruan guessed that he must know that Gu Baiyu was pregnant, and he would definitely swear to Xiao Yanlin to keep the secret, so he came up with this strategy. The ultimate goal was to sow discord between Gu Baiyu and Xiao Yanlin. It would be better if there was something good about it... ...
It's a pity that the old housekeeper is not a fool, and this time, Gu Baiyu did not give Gu Ruanruan a chance to escape unscathed.
"Come here, take Aunt Gu back to the Marquis Mansion, and also invite the Second Master over!"
Hearing this, Gu Ruanruan struggled even more fiercely!
She had finally changed Xiao Ruoyun's view of herself, how could she let Xiao Ruoyun know that she had caused trouble again!
Seeing her struggling fiercely, Gu Baiyu sneered.
"Now you know you're afraid?"
She slowly approached Gu Baiyu and touched the scar on her cheek with one hand: "I have made such a big sacrifice, but I took the risk this time just to tell me the news..."
Hearing Gu Baiyu's words, a flash of panic flashed in Gu Ruanruan's eyes.
But Gu Baiyu had already calmed down and guessed the ins and outs of this matter.
"Let me guess... Things are not going well with the Second Prince, right? The pressure is so great that you need to come here to sow discord between me and the Marquis?"
Gu Ruanruan opened his eyes wide.
Seeing her reaction, Gu Baiyu knew that he had guessed correctly.
"Hmph, the second prince is really desperate. Do you really think you can reverse things in the court by sowing discord between me and the Marquis?"
Gu Baiyu lifted Gu Ruanruan's chin, stared at her glasses, and said word by word: "Do you think I am like you, selfish in everything and only consider my own feelings? Even if Mr. Hou really lied to me, I will It’s impossible for this kind of thing to affect his important affairs in court!”
She shook off Gu Ruanruan's chin: "Remember, I am different from you! My relationship with Mr. Hou is also different from your false love where everything has a purpose!"
Gu Ruanruan struggled even harder, but Gu Baiyu never wanted to look at her again.
"Let's go back home!"
Gu Baiyu said this on his lips, but how could he not care at all in his heart?
Gu Baiyu walked out, his hands tightly protecting his lower abdomen.
Xiao Yanlin, you better have a reasonable reason, otherwise...
Her arrogance was pampered by Xiao Yanlin himself, so don't blame her for causing such a big mess this time!
The atmosphere was not right, and several servants did not dare to speak.
The old housekeeper followed behind but hesitated, wanting to say a few good words to Xiao Yanlin. Lingyu shook her head at him.
She knows her young lady’s temper best.
Regardless of Gu Baiyu's usually good-tempered appearance, she was really angry and had a very bad temper. The more others tried to persuade her, the more she would become suspicious of Xiao Yanlin.
It's better to let these two people solve it themselves.
This time the old housekeeper chose to believe Lingyu.
On the way back, the old housekeeper was afraid that the battle would be too big, so he temporarily called a carriage and let Gu Ruanruan sit in it.
Gu Baiyu touched his belly and remained silent since he got on the carriage.
Lingyu didn't dare to say a word and huddled silently in the corner, reducing her sense of presence.
It's not too far to go back to the Hou Mansion from the teahouse. You need to pass through two streets on the way.
It was getting late now, and there were not many pedestrians on the road.
The coachman was driving the carriage and muttered in a low voice: "It's not dark yet, why is there no one there..."
Before he finished speaking, the carriage suddenly became violent!
The horse was frightened and let out a long neigh!
The coachman quickly turned around, only to see that the carriage that had been called over temporarily to pull Gu Ruanruan suddenly bumped into their carriage for some unknown reason!
In the carriage, Lingyu tightly protected Gu Baiyu: "Madam, don't be afraid that I will go down and see what's going on..."
Before Lingyu finished speaking, the old housekeeper's old voice outside sounded anxious: "Lingyu! Protect my wife! Don't come out!"
Outside the carriage, it had been deserted for some time. Eight men with black veils on their faces surrounded Gu Baiyu's carriage from all directions. They all had knives in their hands. It seemed like they were coming with bad intentions!
