Chapter 502 - Back to the Gu House (2/2)
Gu Bailu got into the carriage and decided to regard the separation as a short holiday.
But after the carriage reached the back gate, a tear suddenly rolled down her face. She didn’t know that parting would be so difficult.
She lifted the curtain and looked back. Of course, the buildings blocked everything, but with her Heavenly Eye, she saw that Feng Qingtian was still standing where she had left him.
His fists were clenched, and his eyes were red.
She was crying when she didn’t love him as much as he loved her.
So, he had to be even more miserable in his heart at seeing her off.
Leaning back in the carriage, Gu Bailu knew that she had to leave so that those who wanted to kill her couldn’t find her, which would be one less weight on his mind.
Back in her house, Gu Bailu found a lot of strangers.
Had Feng Qingtian sent them over to serve her?
But why would she need the services of so many people?
Or were they the secret troop? But shouldn’t they be hiding?
“My lady, they’re the people with skills that you asked to hire. They couldn’t stay at Prince Zi’s house, so they were sent here,” the butler explained to her.
Gu Bailu smiled bitterly. “Just let them stay. Prince Zi kicked me back here, anyway.”
The butler kept his head bowed and didn’t dare say anything.
“How was the house when I was away? Anyone disobedient?” Gu Bailu calmed down and asked.
The butler replied respectfully, “They’re all very dutiful. You should get some rest, my lady.”
The butler could tell that Gu Bailu wasn’t in a good mood.
But that was understandable for a woman who had been kicked out when she was pregnant.
Gu Bailu nodded. She wasn’t in the best mood.
