Chapter 448: Back to Mother’s Home 2

She was keeping her head lowered rather than looking up.

Gu Ruxue, who had been smiling brightly, got annoyed as she saw how Lord Ling was staring at Gu Chaoyan. Her face turned twisted and fists totally clenched.

This b**ch…

Gu Ruxue kept calling her by that name inside her head. It must have been her who seduced Lord Ling on the sly!

“Lord, let’s go in.” Gu Ruxue was angry, but she had to look very sweet in front of Lord Ling.

Zhou Huailing got back to himself and looked at Gu Ruxue with a sober mind. Then he nodded and they started to walk into the lobby.

Normally, it was Gu Zhenkang and Mrs. Gu who were seated in the upper seats in the lobby of the front yard, but with Lord Ling present, they had to take the lower seats, sparing the upper seats for Lord Ling and Gu Ruxue.

Gu Ruxue was very glad to be seated in that place. She was in a good mood watching over the whole mansion. That was how being a Princess Consort felt like.

She was supreme over everyone else. If only she was the only Princess Consort… Gu Ruxue said inwardly.

Zhou Huailing was already used to being on the upper seat, so he had no such feelings at all. Instead, he started to search for Gu Chaoyan among the crowd again.

For some reason, this lineal daughter of the mansion really liked being in the crowd of concubine’s children.

She was sitting there quietly, with eyes looking straight forward. She looked very calm. Zhou Huailing felt that she was better-behaved and had better manners than the Princess Consort. And she had a better appearance than the Princess Concubine. And she had an even more amazing air than the Phoenix Girl…

How could there be someone so perfect? Zhou Huailing got distracted. He had made a mistake.

Even if Gu Ruxue was the Phoenix Girl, he should have married her too. He should not have given Zhou Huaijin the chance. Zhou Huailing was feeling very regretful inside his heart.

Gu Chaoyan had sensed that look. She was frowning, feeling rather disgusted. She should not have been here today, but Chen Fu looked too pitiful. Chen Fu was injured, and he could not take any days off. He had to work for the Gu Mansion and if she was not present, Chen Fu might get blamed again.

She was not a very kind-hearted person, but she just could not be totally cold-blooded. That was why she showed up.

She felt like leaving at any moment. Gu Chaoyan tried to come up with a way of getting rid of this place.

Then Mrs. Gu’s voice arose. “Lord Ling, can I speak with Ruxue in the room? I can barely see her in the future.”

Zhou Huailing nodded with approval.

Mrs. Gu was very happy, then she headed to the Yard with Gu Ruxue.

She said proudly as she walked past the concubine’s children. “You can join us as well, you better speak with her since you are in a good relationship with Ruxue.”

Gu Chaoyan got up directly. She really hoped to leave, but Gu Xiuying was unwilling to do that.

She had been well-dressed, because her aunt told her that Lord Ling still had a position for Princess Concubine. If she could take the opportunity and become the Princess Concubine, then she was going to have a wonderful life. So she was not willing to do that at all.

However, Mrs. Gu grabbed her and said, “Xiuying, you have always been Ruxue’s best friend, you must be dying to speak with her, aren’t you?”
