Qing Guang

After the carriage entered the Gu residence, the vermilion door closed heavily.

The entire Gu residence was in an uproar with the arrival of Madam Gu. The servants in the residence had been guarding Danyang City for many years, but they had never seen this old matriarch of the Marquis Mansion. They were more or less in fear and respect.

Surrounded by everyone, Madam Gu sat down in the main hall. The maidservant quickly served her tea and snacks.

Madam Gu slowly drank her tea. When she was halfway through the pot of tea, a slender figure appeared outside the hall and walked over.

Gu Yanfei was wearing a casual sky-blue dress. Her waist was slender, and her black hair was casually tied into a bun. Other than the ribbon that tied her hair, there was no jewelry on her body.

When the beautiful girl walked over leisurely, her every move carried a leisurely and valiant elegance.

Madam Gu nodded secretly. She thought to herself, ‘Granny Xu has been teaching her for three months and has some results. Although this girl is an idiot on the inside, her manners are not as unbearable as I imagined.’

“Second Lady Gu” was going to marry into the British Monarchy. If her behavior was too vulgar, the British Monarchy would probably not be willing to have such a daughter-in-law. Then, the two families would become enemies.

However, this girl was too wild. He had to teach her a lesson.

Gu Yanfei lifted her skirt and stepped into the main hall.

After 200 years, Gu Yanfei was very calm to see her biological grandmother again.

In the past, she had looked forward to this biological grandmother of hers. After repeated disappointments, she finally understood a cruel truth. In Madam Gu’s heart, she would never be able to compare to Gu Yunrong.

It was Madam Gu who personally added fuel to the fire, making her a stepping stone for Gu Yunrong, helping her rise step by step.

In the end, Gu Yunrong became the mother of the world, and she, Gu Yanfei, died tragically when she was young.

The pain from back then seemed to still be engraved in her bones. Gu Yanfei looked at Madam Gu deeply, and a mocking glint flashed across her calm eyes.

Look, for the sake of her precious granddaughter’s future, no matter how unwilling she was, she still came to Danyang City to lower herself to pick up this granddaughter she didn’t want.

Gu Yanfei stopped a few steps away. Before she could speak, the other party ordered in an unquestionable tone, “Quickly pack up. We’ll return to the capital immediately.”

Madam Gu’s expression was cold and distant, with a superior attitude.

Gu Yanfei did not care about the other party’s coldness and stood there leisurely.

She would return to the capital, of course, but not now.

She couldn’t leave yet.

Gu Yanfei said indifferently, “Madam must be tired from the long journey. There’s no hurry to return to the capital today. Why don’t we talk about it tomorrow?”

Instead of calling her grandmother, she called her “Madam”.

Madam Gu raised her eyebrows without revealing anything. She felt that this girl was quite tactful. Before she acknowledged her ancestors, she did not shamelessly act close with her.

Madam Gu hesitated and glanced at the pot at the side.

It was almost midnight, and it was neither early nor late. Even if they set off within the time it took for an incense stick to burn, they might not be able to reach the courier station before nightfall.

Moreover, after traveling for a few days, Madam Gu was indeed tired.

The girl in blue below could see Madam Gu’s fatigue and hesitation. She advised gently, “Grandma, my Second Sister is right. Why don’t we rest for a night before leaving? We’re not in a hurry.”

The girl was wearing a light blue silk long-sleeved coat with a bamboo-green Mamianqun. Her thick black hair was tied into a droopy bun. She had long eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, a fine nose, and pink lips. Her appearance was beautiful and gentle.

Gu Yanfei gave her a kind smile and her eyes curved like a moon.

Her eldest cousin, Gu Yunzhen, should have been like this, bright-eyed and charming, not that thin and pale appearance in her memory.

Madam Gu wanted to give Gu Yanfei the cold shoulder, so she followed Gu Yunzhen’s steps and said, “Zhen’er, we still have to travel tomorrow. Rest early tonight.”

What she meant was that she agreed to stay here for another night.

An old granny with a round face hurriedly said, “Madam, I’ve already asked someone to tidy up the room. Why don’t you go to the room and rest first?”

Madam Gu rubbed her eyebrows tiredly and let the old granny lead the way.

Gu Yanfei was the only one left in the empty hall. It was as if she had been forgotten.

A thin cat purr outside the window slipped into her ear.

“Meow…”

The meow was faintly discernible and seemed to be from outside the window. There was no wind in the courtyard, and the trees were motionless.

“I think I heard a cat meowing…” Gu Yanfei raised her eyebrows.

“A cat?” Juan Bi craned her neck to look out the window, too.

As soon as she finished speaking, a fluffy, soft ball leapt through the window and landed steadily on the sill.

It was a small kitten no more than two months old.

The tip of its nose was pink and fluffy. Its long black, orange, and white fur was perfectly matched. Embedded in its small round face were round green eyes that resembled a pair of top-grade emeralds, sparkling in the sunlight.

Gu Yanfei and the kitten looked into each other’s eyes. Its green pupils were bright and clear, giving Gu Yanfei an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

“Meow!”

The little hairball let out a happy cry. It was soft and gentle, and its green eyes were filled with surprise, as if to say, ‘I’ve found you!’

It suddenly kicked its legs and leapt in Gu Yanfei’s direction, looking like a swallow returning to its nest.

The little guy was very fast, but if Gu Yanfei really wanted to dodge, it would be easy.

She didn’t move, however. For some reason, the emerald-green cat’s eyes looked familiar. The way it lunged at her gave her the same sense of familiarity.

“Kitty!”

Amidst Juan Bi’s exclamation, the kitten threw itself into Gu Yanfei’s arms enthusiastically. Gu Yanfei held its soft abdomen with one hand and touched its chin with the other, but it accidentally bit the tip of her index finger.

Bright red blood seeped out of her fingertips and formed a drop the size of a rice grain.

The kitten hurriedly licked away the drop of blood with its small, rough tongue, its fluffy tail swishing happily behind it.

Gu Yanfei narrowed her eyes and felt as if invisible heartstrings were connecting her to the little kitten in her arms.

She held the kitten higher, so that its green eyes met hers. “Qing Guang?” she asked, raising her eyebrows. “Why are you here?”

“Why have you… turned into a cat?”
