Renault came out of the prison. The housekeeper was waiting at the door. When he saw him, he said, ”young master, the Duke and Duchess have just called to invite you to their wedding anniversary dinner tomorrow evening.”
”Wedding anniversary dinner?” Renault said, ”push it for me, and say I'm not available.”
”But I have agreed for you.”
The housekeeper's reply made Renault pause and turned to look at him. Although Renault did not speak, his eyes were very clear. He was asking when the housekeeper had learned to make his own decisions.
The housekeeper said, ”tomorrow's dinner is really important. It's the 30th anniversary of the Duke and the Duchess, and the royal family will also send someone to attend it. So I'll make a pretext and promise for you. If you really don't have time to go, I --”
”forget it.” Renault waved. ”No more.”
”Yes, thank you very much. The second young master -” the housekeeper hesitated for a moment, and then said, ”you have locked him in the bottom for some time, or you can release him.”
”No, don't mind him. Let him continue to reflect in it.” Renault went straight ahead.
The housekeeper looked at Renault's tall and straight back, with complicated eyes, both comfort and disappointment, and more determination.
Gu Jinxi also racked his brains and thought for Gu Huaiyu's affairs, and even went to cook in person.
Dolly, the maid, followed her and looked at her behavior. She was very frightened and said, ”Miss, I'll come.”
”No, I'll do it myself. Don't get in my way.”
The guard reported the incident to Renault, and Renault just chuckled. After three years, it can be said that she did not take the initiative to do anything except for the first few times of taking the initiative to escape. Now she takes the initiative to do this to please Gu Huaiyu. She is really trying her best.
Gu Jinxi was in a hurry, but at the moment when he smelled the chicken soup, he was still extremely satisfied. He quickly put salt and monosodium glutamate, and then took the whole pot to find Renault.
The kitchen and his office are a little far away. Gu Jinxi walks very fast, but when he is near his office, he is stopped by the housekeeper.
Gu Jinxi quickly stopped his steps and said to the housekeeper, ”steward, please let me in. I've cooked chicken soup for Renault, and I want to drink it while it's hot.”
Seeing this, the housekeeper stretched out his hand and said to her, ”Miss Gu, the young master is busy. Now is not the time to drink chicken soup. Please give me the chicken soup and I will send it to you later.”
”But --” Gu Jinxi looked at the pot in his hand, then looked at the housekeeper, and immediately compromised, ”that's troubling you.”
She gave the pot to the housekeeper and turned to leave. But the housekeeper gave the pot to the servant behind her and stopped her: ”Miss Gu, wait a moment.”
”What else can I do for you?” Gu Jinxi was very polite to the housekeeper, because he was the one who was more kind to her in this castle. She could feel it. But unexpectedly, the housekeeper said to her today, ”Miss Gu, I hope I can explain some things to you. The relationship between you and the young master is very popular now.”
Gu Jinxi's face was embarrassed, and she was at a loss: ”I'm sorry.”
”You don't have to tell me I'm sorry, and you're not sorry for me, but I'd like to remind you that it's not easy to be the mistress of the Shawn family.”
”You misunderstand me. I'm not interested in it at all.” Gu Jinxi knew that he had misunderstood him and immediately clarified, ”it's not what you think. I just want to save my brother. I don't want to be the mistress of the Shawn family.”
The housekeeper's face finally eased a little, looked at Gu Jinxi and nodded: ”Miss Gu, you are an understanding person.”
”I understand that you want to say that you are worthy of Renault and Catherine,” she looked at the housekeeper sincerely and sincerely, ”housekeeper, I know you are a good man, so I beg you, what can I do to save my brother, how can I get rid of this situation?”
The housekeeper didn't mean to target Gu Jinxi. He just didn't want anything to affect Renault. He was right. A woman worthy of Renault and a director of the Shawn family should not be as weak as Gu Jinxi.
As to whether it was Catherine - not for the moment.
