The two shadow guards were left speechless.
Is it a Golden House or a silver house that he’s so excited? Even fearing someone might drag him out, look at his determination!
Has he forgotten that he has a congenital heart disease?
Has he forgotten that his own firewood room is much larger and more luxurious than this peasant courtyard?
I don’t know who’s been complaining day after day about the poor living conditions of the villa, it’s insufficiently high-end and classy!
Humph!
Double standard!
Although the two shadow guards were silently mocking, they couldn’t actually pull out their young master from there and take him away. He might not care when messing around, but they couldn’t disregard the consequences.
Couldn’t strike, couldn’t touch, couldn’t anger. That is their delicate household’s little darling!
Shadow Guard A: “What should we do?”
Shadow Guard B: “What can we do? Just guard!”
Shadow Guard A: “I mean about the villa. We can’t just not go back, they will send people to look for us.”
If they come looking, they’ll disrupt the young master’s interaction with the young lady, then he will get upset, and when he is upset, he gets sick…
The two let out a synchronised sigh!
How did they end up with such a pampered young master?
After some discussion, they decided that one would stay here while the other would go back to the villa to give a report.
At the villa, the distinguished master Gu was instructing people to refurbish Gu Yan’s courtyard, mainly preparing a clean and tidy room for Gu Jiao, setting up a small flower shed, and replacing her furniture with new and expensive ones.
Accepting that girl back was a fact he could not resist.
He wanted to establish the image of being a good father.
…show it to the Yao family.
“Make the shed a bit wider!” the distinguished Lord Gu sternly said.
A servant objected, “Master, if it is wider, it will oppress the young master’s pear tree.”
Lord Gu sneered, “You can chop it down, he won’t say a thing!”
As long as it is for that girl, even if Gu Yan’s own house is demolished, Gu Yan won’t utter a word!
Remembering how he accidentally chopped off a pear tree branch while practicing his swordsmanship, as a result, that boy sulked with him for a whole month, Lord Gu felt a little aggrieved.
Huang Zhong pondered, “Master, isn’t it a bit early to do the renovation now? Will the young lady really come to live here? What if she doesn’t come, wouldn’t you have tampered with the young master’s pear tree for nothing?”
Lord Gu chuckled, “Rest assured, she won’t refuse! Their sibling relationship is so good, she can’t possibly refuse Yanyan.”
Huang Zhong was still a bit confused, so he asked: “What if the young master doesn’t ask?”
Lord Gu gave him a stern look, “How can he not ask? Haven’t you seen how much he likes that girl? He didn’t know that she was his sister before, now that he knows, can he not take her back home?”
While they were talking, the Shadow Guard B came in front of Lord Gu.
Huang Zhong swiftly unsheathed his sword.
Shadow Guard B held out the token, “I am the young master’s shadow guard, I am here to deliver a message to the master.”
The shadow guards by Gu Yan’s side were arranged by the old master Gu. When the old master Gu was young, he had trained his own army. Later, this army was incorporated into the court, and the incapacitated military officers were left by the old master Gu to serve by his side.
These shadow guards are their successors, outstanding in martial arts, mysterious in their movements, but not many in number, there’s not a single one by Lord Gu’s side.
This is actually the first time Lord Gu has seen the old master’s shadow guards. Squinting his eyes, he said, “Did Yanyan send you to deliver this message? What? Do I, as the master, need to prepare a grand ceremony to welcome this girl’s return?”
Shadow Guard B replied, “Master, you misunderstood. It’s not the young master who sent me. The young master had no time to mind me. I came to tell you, the young master isn’t coming back.”
“What, what? Who’s not coming back?” Lord Gu doubted he had misheard.
Shadow Guard B wondered if his hearing was impaired. After contemplating it seriously, he clarified in a slow and deliberate manner, “Your son, Gu Yan.”
Lord Gu was dumbfounded, “Why isn’t he coming back?”
Shadow Guard B replied calmly, “He’s staying at the young lady’s house”. After a pause, afraid he hadn’t heard clearly, emphasized again, “Your daughter, Gu Jiao.”
Lord Gu bristled, “I don’t need you to tell me! I know it’s that girl!”
Shadow Guard B looked at him with an odd face, “That’s weird. When I said young master, you didn’t react that he was your son. When I said young lady, you immediately recognized it’s that girl. Are you excessively partial?”
Lord Gu: This is my disbelief, do you understand disbelief?!
Shadow Guard B didn’t understand.
It wasn’t taught in assassins’ training.
Lord Gu was so mad that his chest hurt. I told you to kidnap that girl back, who asked you to get kidnapped by her?!
