Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 364 A Matter of Life and Death

Bai Mo stood there looking a little awkward, so Gu Qingyuan introduced her to Wen Shubai, "This is the fifth princess of the Holy Land."

Wen Shubai glanced at Bai Mo and said calmly, "If my wife and the fifth princess still have something else to do, you can go ahead and do it."

"It's nothing, but the Fifth Princess is leaving soon, so I'll go see her off."

Afterwards, Gu Qingyuan sent Bai Mo to the door and then walked back.

......

Drunk in the Red Mansion.

Qingluan couldn't remember how long it had been since he had eaten. He was so hungry that he couldn't even stand. He could only hold his stomach and curl up in the corner.

Ever since the boss told people not to bring him food, he hasn't had even a drop of water.

Wuyan once came to persuade him, telling him to listen to the boss and not joke about his own body.

But Qingluan would rather starve than go out to entertain guests.

Just as he was about to pass out, there was a knock on the door.

Wu Yan stood outside and whispered, "The top pick is me."

Wuyan stood outside, looking around.

After making sure that there was no one around, he handed the food wrapped in cloth through the window, along with a bowl of water.

"How did you come?"

Qingluan looked at the person standing by the window with some surprise.

Wu Yan said helplessly, "The boss has been mad at you these past two days and even had someone watch me, preventing me from secretly sending you anything. Today I came over when he wasn't paying attention. Hurry up and eat, and I'll return the bowl after you're done."

Qingluan opened the cloth and found a hard steamed bun.

He soaked the steamed bun in water before he could swallow it.

After eating, Qingluan felt that her stomach didn’t hurt as much anymore.

Wuyan then secretly returned the bowl.

On the way back, the madam stopped him and asked, "Stop! It's past dinner time. What are you doing in the kitchen?"

Wuyan put the bowl behind him and stammered, "I...I was just passing by."

The madam glanced at him sharply and asked him to take out his hands from behind his back.

"I didn't take anything, really!"

However, the madam didn't believe him. Her face darkened and she asked Wuyan, "Did you just secretly go to bring food to Qingluan?"

"No...no!"

The madam sneered, snatched the bowl from his hand forcefully, and threw it hard to the ground.

The bowl immediately broke into pieces, and the sound of the bowl breaking made people passing by tremble.

"You still say no, Wuyan, you are so bold now that you dare not even listen to me."

Wuyan's face turned pale and he knelt on the ground.

"I've previously instructed that no one is allowed to bring food to Qingluan. When he can't stand it anymore, he'll come out and obey. You disobeyed my orders, and I don't think this building will tolerate you anymore."

Wu Yan raised his head and said, "Boss, I was wrong. Please, don't chase me away!"

The madam slapped him in the face, and as if she was not satisfied, she hit him several more times in a row.

"Aren't you very brave? Aren't you very capable? Get out of here today."

Wuyan kowtowed to the madam while crying, "No, I don't want to leave here. I will be very obedient in the future. Please don't drive me away."

However, the madam simply ordered the thugs in the building to throw Wuyan out.

Wuyan wiped her tears and tried to go back, but was thrown out again.

It suddenly occurred to him that perhaps there was another person who could save the top star and him.

Afterwards, he wiped away his tears and went to inquire where Gu Qingyuan lived.

After arriving at Gu's house, Wuyan knocked on the door.

The person who opened the door saw a thin man and asked, "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

Wu Yan quickly said, "I'm here to look for Young Master Gu."

"What do you want from our young master?"

"It's a matter of life and death," he said quickly, as if afraid of being rejected. "Please help me report it. I really have something very important to discuss with Young Master Gu."

When he opened the door and heard that it was a "matter of life and death", he hesitated for a moment, but still came to Gu Qingyuan and said that someone was looking for her outside.

"Let him in."

Gu Qingyuan was also very curious about who was coming.

However, when she saw that the person who came was Wuyan, she asked in surprise: "Is it you?"

She still had some impression of Wuyan, who was the person who stayed with Qingluan when they were in Zuihonglou before.

Wu Yan saw her and said anxiously, "Master Gu, please save the top performer. The boss said that if he doesn't receive guests, he won't be allowed to eat. I was kicked out today because I delivered food to the top performer."

"what?"

She didn't expect that the madam could be so cruel.

"If Young Master Gu doesn't save him, he's probably going to starve to death."

All Wuyan gave him was a bowl of cold water and a small piece of dry steamed bun.

Now that he has been kicked out and other people dislike Qingluan, no one will help him.

"Never mind. I'll go take a look."

Gu Qingyuan got on the carriage and followed Wuyan to Zuihonglou.

After seeing her, the madam asked flatteringly, "Young Master Gu, why are you here?"

"I came here for Qingluan."

Gu Qingyuan spoke straight to the point.

When the madam heard that she did it for Qingluan, she couldn't help but feel puzzled. According to Qingluan before, Young Master Gu didn't care about him at all, so why did he come to see him again today?

But since she said that, the madam rolled her eyes and said, "Qingluan is not feeling well. Why don't you come back tomorrow?"

After learning that Wuyan had brought food to Qingluan, he drove Wuyan out and brought people to give Qingluan a beating.

Now he is injured and cannot see anyone.

However, Gu Qing insisted on seeing him, and even pushed the madam away and walked inside.

She walked so fast that the madam couldn't stop her.

Arrived at the door of Qingluan’s room.

Qingluan had wounds on his body and a long scar on his face. Although the madam applied medicine to him immediately after seeing the injury on his face, fearing that it would affect his ability to receive customers in the future, the scar was still left.

Qingluan heard footsteps, but could only lie on the bed.

There was sadness and despair in his eyes.

Gu Qingyuan kicked the door open and walked in.

After Qingluan saw her, she sat up from the bed with difficulty and asked in disbelief, "Young Master Gu?"

"it's me."

Gu Qingyuan saw the scar on his face and asked, "What's going on?"

Qingluan smiled bitterly, tears welling up in her eyes.

The madam followed Gu Qingyuan in, feeling uneasy.

If Gu Qingyuan still cared about Qingluan, he would have beaten Qingluan like this.

Seeing Qingluan didn't say anything, Gu Qingyuan went to ask the madam, "Tell me, why did he become like this?"

"Hey, this is how I usually discipline those who don't listen..."

As he spoke, he felt a cold sweat starting to form on his forehead.

Qingluan felt a pain in her stomach and her face turned even paler.
