Chapter 260 - Planning To Accompany (1/2)

Upon hearing Gu Fangzi bring that up, Wang Shi couldn’t help but feel disgusted. She waved her hand and said, “He won’t. I’m in charge of this. Go back and pack your luggage, and be ready to set off! Since he has already gotten rid of Lan Xiang, would he still be angry? If he’s still angry, then he has quite a temper!”

Gu Fangzi was silently happy to hear that. She quickly got up and agreed respectfully. So what if her cousin didn’t like her? Since she could make him commit to her in the past, she believed that as long as she had a chance to be by his side, she would still have a way to make him fall for her! Feelings could either change for the better or for the worse, and it would depend on whether she was diligent enough to come up with a plan to win him over!

She had lost once and learnt from her mistakes this time!

“What’s this servant’s name? Is she useful to you?’ Wang Shi nodded and asked.

Gu Fangzi took this chance and said with a smile, “She is sensible and obedient. I would like to request for another servant to go to Hangzhou together so that I can take care of Big Cousin more carefully! When I come back, I’ll return the servant to you!”

This was what Wang Shi wanted. With another servant by her side, her son would naturally be better taken care of.

“Sure!” Wang Shi replied with a smile, “I’ll let Xiu Chun go with you then! If you like her, she can serve you in the future!”

Wang Shi treated the servants by her side very well. How could she simply give them away after being used to them for so many years? She could not bear to give her servants even to her son, let alone others. Gu Fangzi understood she was not sincere and only blurted it out. She would be a fool if she agreed to that!

She hurriedly refused her, “I wouldn’t dare want a servant who serves you! You have taught them to be so outstanding; I will seem inferior if I take them, so I won’t dare to have them!”

“How dare you dislike my servants!” Wang Shi started laughing and felt relieved. In fact, she regretted her words as soon as she blurted it out.

“You haven’t told me your servant’s name yet!” Wang Shi raised the question again.

Gu Fangzi was slightly embarrassed and said with a reluctant smile, “She is called… called Lan Xiang…”

“Lan Xiang?” Wang Shi’s expression sank and she asked, “Who gave her this name?” Without needing to ask, Wang Shi could roughly guess who it was.

“It was Big Cousin.” Gu Fangzi was still somewhat embarrassed but said with a smile, “But it doesn’t matter what her name is. Any name is fine!”

Wang Shi sighed. “Since you think so, then I’m relieved! My dear child, you’re sensible to be able to see the whole picture!”

“As long as it’s Big Cousin’s decision, I will not go against it,” Gu Fangzi said softly.

Wang Shi sighed softly and nodded before waving her hand to dismiss her.

“Fengju is already old enough, but why does he not do things properly!” After Gu Fangzi left, Wang Shi couldn’t help but complain to Nanny Jiang.

Lan Xiang had been sent away but here came another one. What nerve he had to do that! Wasn’t he clearly punishing her on purpose!

It was not proper for Nanny Jiang to answer that, so she forced a smile and stuttered. Wang Shi didn’t need an answer from her, but felt more and more angry. She instructed Nanny Jiang to tell Shi Fengju to see her after he came back.

Shi Fengju returned only when it was very late. Once he heard that his mother was looking for him, he went over without even changing his clothes.

“You just returned home? Why are you back so late?” Wang Shi stared at him before saying sadly, “Your wife isn’t home. Is that why you don’t want to come back?”

Shi Fengju was caught in between tears and laughter. What was wrong with his mother recently? Why did she suddenly drag Sang Wan into this?

“Aren’t I going to Hangzhou in two days? I have to hand over everything here clearly and properly, so I came back late!” Then, he said to Wang Shi, “Mother, what’s wrong with you lately? In the past, you wouldn’t say such things!”

Wang Shi was startled to hear that, and thought: Great, you’ve changed! Weren’t her words something she would often say when her son returned late? When did he start to talk back to her!

“What are you talking about? Your mother is doing fine. I think there’s something wrong with you instead! Have you decided on a date to set off?” Wang Shi asked as she stared at him.

Shi Fengju answered with a smile, “Probably two days time!” He then added, “Mother, do you have anything you want? I’ll bring it back for you on my way home!”

“I don’t have anything I want!” Wang Shi replied with a smile, “I want you to bring two people with you, and you cannot decline.”
