Nearby, on an Osmanthus tree, the concealed figure of Feng Yuanxi glared at Wang Shi with an inflated sense of anger.
“You old hag, how dare you threaten my beautiful sister!’
Watch me teach you a lesson!
He plucked a green Osmanthus fruit from the tree and hurled it towards Wang Shi.
While she was scanning her surroundings, searching for the assailant, she suddenly felt a sharp pain on her face. Startled, she cried out and hurriedly took cover behind Gu Zhicheng, her eyes shimmering with shock and fury.
Catching sight of the rolling green fruit on the ground, she immediately exclaimed with excitement, “It’s on the Osmanthus tree! Capture the scoundrel who dared to attack this lady!”
Gu Qingluan turned her head to look.
She caught a glimpse of a fleeting blue figure. Several attendants moved to surround the tree.
“Lady, there’s no one on the tree.”
“How is that possible? Search thoroughly!” Wang Shi’s expression twisted with rage.
Gu Qingluan sneered, “Stop diverting attention. If you don’t leave now, I’ll have to throw you out.”
Gu Zhicheng grabbed Wang Shi’s arm. “Enough! Is it not humiliating enough for you? Go pack your things, we’re leaving! ‘
“Old Master, do you really intend to listen to her and leave this place?” Wang Shi, upon hearing his words, no longer cared about the person who had attacked her.
Gu Zhicheng’s face turned grim as he retorted, “Or should we wait to be thrown out? Even Li Tianhao couldn’t defeat Gu Qingluan. What can we do?’
He turned to Gu Qingluan. “Can we leave in the evening?”
In broad daylight, with people coming and going outside, who knows how many would be entertained by the spectacle.
Gu Qingluan looked at him with a smile. “No, you can’t.”
Gu Zhicheng, infuriated, turned around and left.
Wang Shi glanced at him, then at Gu Qingluan, stomped her foot, and chased after him. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Gu Qingluan instructed Su Lie, “Keep an eye on them. They can’t take anything from the Jun Residence that they’re not supposed to.”
“Yes, Master!” Su Lie nodded solemnly.
The Osmanthus tree stood next to a long wall, and on the other side of the wall, a small figure crouched in the corner, with eyes rolling and ears perked up.
Footsteps grew closer.
The figure instantly tensed up, attentively looking over.
Ah! It’s my beautiful sister!
Feng Yuanxi saw her face and his whole face lit up, standing up joyfully.
“Son, when did you sneak in?”
Gu Qingluan suspected that the person who attacked Wang Shi might be hiding there, so she came over out of curiosity. She didn’t expect to see her own son!
Son?
Feng Yuanxi looked confused.
Gu Qingluan didn’t notice his confusion.
‘Why did you come here? Didn’t I tell you to stay at the Building of No Return and wait for me to clean up this place before I pick you up?”
Gu Qingluan pinched his little nose, exerting just a slight force, showing affection.
Feng Yuanxi blinked his big eyes. It was only now that he realized he was in a hurry and forgot to put on his mask.
Could it be that the beautiful sister mistook him for her own son?
She smiled so gently!
If the beautiful sister were his mother, how wonderful would that be! “Xiaonan, why aren’t you speaking?” Gu Qingluan touched his little face, feeling a bit puzzled.
Could it be that he was frightened when she found out that he had snuck over?
Feng Yuanxi was envious of the boy called Xiao Nan as he felt the soft hand caressing her cheek.
Do they look alike? Then could he call her…
“Moth…er?”
“Hmm?”
Gu Qingluan gently pinched his small face and said, “Silly child, if you don’t call me ‘Mother,’ then what should you call me?”
“Mother! ” Feng Yuanxi’s eyes sparkled with excitement as he eagerly rushed into her embrace.
A familiar and comforting aroma surrounded him.
It was the scent of his mother!
He remembered it!
He had found his mother!
