Chapter 378 Why Lie
Chapter 378 Why Lie
He had finally come out to see her, so he didn't want to go back!
Gu Qingyuan couldn't help but frown and asked him, "So what are you going to do?"
If someone were to find the peacock in her room tomorrow, news would probably spread soon that she had stolen the peacock.
The peacock boy said shyly, "Do you think I'm pretty?"
In order to get rid of this plague god as quickly as possible, Gu Qingyuan had no choice but to agree with him and said, "It looks good."
However, at this moment, he rushed towards her excitedly and said in an excited tone: "I knew you would like it!"
Gu Qingyuan was embarrassed. She just said "it looks good" and didn't say she liked it, right?
But he didn't realize it and continued, "You obviously like me, why are you chasing me away?"
Gu Qingyuan couldn't stand it anymore and threw him out.
By the way, she also locked the window and ignored him no matter how he shouted.
Well, it’s much quieter now. Gu Qingyuan clapped her hands and she could go back to sleep.
The peacock boy who was thrown out by Gu Qingyuan was very depressed, and he still looked unhappy when he returned to the nest.
Even when the palace maid came to see it during the day the next day, it stayed in its nest and refused to come out.
"Strange, could he be sick?" the maid said worriedly.
The peacock lay in his nest, cursing, "You are the one who is sick!"
But because he looked like a peacock, the words he spoke turned into the sound of a peacock when they reached his lips.
"Wow...Ahhh."
At this time in the capital of Daning Kingdom.
When Jing Qianfan went out to take on the mission, he took Qingluan with him.
The woman they wanted to kill had taken away her mother's life-saving money. She had taken away her mother's life-saving money secretly when she was unable to make ends meet at home.
The family had no choice but to come to Tianji Pavilion and asked them to help find someone. Jing Qianfan felt sorry for them and decided not to charge any commission. Instead, he promised to recover the money.
Qingluan followed Jing Qianfan, wearing a veil on her face to cover the scars on his face.
"Go faster."
Jing Qianfan looked back at him and said impatiently.
Qingluan quickened her pace and caught up with him.
The two men found the woman who had run away with the family's money in a restaurant.
At that time, she had just finished her meal and came out of the restaurant.
The woman had been spoiled by her family since she was a child and could not endure any hardship. The money was raised by her family members who borrowed from relatives and friends.
But after she took the money, she forgot about her sick mother at home and used the money to eat, drink and have fun.
Jing Qianfan raised his hand to knock her unconscious and let Qingluan drag her away.
"What should we do next?" Qingluan looked up and asked.
Jing Qianfan threw a dagger to him and said leisurely while standing aside: "Since the master asked you to join the Tianji Pavilion, and you have followed us for so long, I will let you take action today."
"I?"
His hand holding the dagger trembled slightly.
"Hurry up and do it! This man has abandoned his family and deserves death."
Qingluan gritted her teeth and killed the woman with the extremely sharp dagger.
Afterwards, they took out the remaining money from her body, and Jing Qianfan added some of his own money to return it to the people who came to Tianji Pavilion and asked them to help find someone.
As for the body, just throw it away.
When the family received the recovered money, they first thanked them and then asked, "Where is Yuan'er now and how is she doing?"
Yuan'er was the woman who absconded with the money and was killed by Jing Qianfan and Qingluan.
Qingluan said to them, "She has found a job outside and asked us to give the money to you."
"Really? Did she really say that?"
Looking at their expectant eyes, Qingluan really couldn't bear to continue lying to them.
But Jing Qianfan pushed him away, stepped forward and said naturally: "This can't be false, so you guys go back quickly."
After the family left, Qingluan asked in confusion, "Why did you lie?"
Jing Qianfan sneered: "Are you going to tell them that you killed that woman?"
If they knew about this, it would probably cause even more trouble.
Qingluan quickly figured it out. He looked at his hands. This was his first time killing someone.
However, since Young Master Gu saved me, I should work honestly for them here.
When Qingluan took on the task later, she became more familiar with it.
He can even take on some small orders without anyone accompanying him.
Gu family.
When Wen Shubai received the letter sent back by Gu Qingyuan, he suddenly stood up from his chair.
Even the rain was startled by him and asked in confusion, "Master, what did the young master say?"
Wen Shubai's eyes were filled with smiles. He showed the letter to Yu Shui and said, "My wife said she will be back soon."
He would see her again soon.
During the more than one month that Gu Qingyuan had been away, he felt like the days were passing by like years.
Yu Shui said happily, "Really? That's great."
The master keeps asking when the young master will come back, and his ears are almost callused.
When the young master comes back, I won’t have to listen to his nagging anymore.
Wen Shubai put away the letter and said to Yu Shui, "Come with me to see Master Lin."
In order to show the queen's magnanimity, he planned to go and see that person.
And now almost everyone in the mansion knows that it is not easy for Lin Xinghe to hold on until the child is born.
Yu Shui responded and followed Wen Shubai.
When he arrived at Lin Xinghe's room, Wen Shubai saw him leaning against the bed with a blank look in his eyes. He didn't know what he was thinking, or maybe he was counting down to his life.
This made him feel a little pity. After walking in, Lin Xinghe saw him and wanted to come down to pay his respects, but was rejected by Wen Shubai.
"No need to come down. You're in this state now. You should have a good rest."
He looked at Lin Xinghe's bulging belly under the quilt and recalled the time when he had Xixi.
"I heard you're pregnant with a girl, right?"
When Lin Xinghe heard Wen Shubai ask him, he clenched the corner of the quilt, nodded, and said, "Yes. The doctor came to check my pulse and said there is a 70% to 80% chance that it is a girl."
Wen Shubai smiled and said, "It's just right. After the baby is born, it can be a companion for Xixi."
Lin Xinghe knew that if he was gone in the future, this child would most likely be raised by Wen Shubai.
He lowered his head and said, "Yes."
It's a pity that he couldn't watch his daughter grow up.
Xiaofeng brought in the medicine from outside. It was the medicine the doctor prescribed last time. As soon as he came in, Wen Shubai and Yu Shui smelled the strong smell of medicine.
Lin Xinghe seemed to have gotten used to it. After the medicine cooled down a little, he drank it all in one gulp.
After he finished drinking the medicine, Wen Shubai slowly said, "By the way, my wife will be back soon."
Lin Xinghe turned his head to look at him, and it was not difficult to see anticipation on his face.
He thought about her in his dreams.
