”If I didn't hear Liu'er's news, I would have thought that you guys would have started a fight in the next moment.”
Duan Chengyu interjected while the two of them were silent, and he raised his hand to pull Gu Mingyan to his side.
He had seen the time and appearance Duan Chengxuan had when he hurt Gu Danyan.
There were already a lot of things between uncle and nephew, so Duan Chengxuan could only endure his rage and stand up. ”No matter what you do next time, tell me first.”
”Our honesty doesn't include details.” Gu Daiyan moved behind Duan Chengyu. ”Moreover, I'll naturally be able to make a trip to Jiang Yan if I'm sick like this.”
”No.” Duan Chengxuan walked up to her and pulled her out, ”Aren't you afraid that Gu Cheng will recognize you? Furthermore, with your appearance, how are you going to run? ”
”I still have ghosts. What's more, you promised me before.” Gu Danyan glared at him.
”Specific plan.” Duan Chengxuan would not watch helplessly as she died. If it was before, he would have thought that Gu Danyan was not that ruthless towards him, but now, it was a completely different matter.
Back then, Su Yu Wan had been ruthless in slandering her for poisoning him, and Gu Danyan had only done so because of the consequences. That day when she cooperated with Duan Cheng Xuan, they had discussed it on the table as a bargaining chip.
Gu Liuyan was someone who could do anything.
”Jiang Yan should've naturally been able to react at random when she went there, so how can there be any details?” Gu Danyan angrily shook him off: ”I already said that ghosts will be by my side …”
”I'll give you one month to settle this. If you can't do it in one month, I'll personally bring people to pick you up.” This time, Duan Chengxuan unquestionably pulled her over and pushed his into Duan Chengyu's hands. ”Watch over her properly. In these few days, I'll hand over all the military authority that belongs to you.”
Duan Chengyu was slightly surprised, this was the reason why he came back. Although there was some enmity between them, he nodded when he saw that Gu Pingyan did not seem to dislike him or find him weird: ”Then I'll leave it to Imperial Uncle.”
”These few days, let her stay in your mansion. I'll send all of her things and people there in a bag later.” After he finished speaking, Duan Chengxuan only returned the colourless and tasteless poison bottle into her hands. ”I accept your punishment.”
Gu Daiyan slightly opened his mouth, but he only watched Duan Chengxuan leave before stuffing the bottle of poison back into his pocket. His tone also became calmer as he said, ”Let's go.”
Duan Chengyu quickly signaled his with his eyes, and he trotted over. Only when he was happy with his teasing Gu Daiyan did the atmosphere turn for the better.
Since they were in cahoots with the emperor, it was only a matter of words before they left the palace without a sound.
Duan Chengyu arranged her room next to Qi Rou's and had his people break through the walls of the two small courtyards so that this group of people could have a good time. As for Qi Rou, he helped him grind the ink, saying, ”I thought she would not get involved with Duan Chengxuan anymore, not to mention her mother's side.”
”Feelings are naturally two people's business. As long as there are problems with the two of them, it would be good. However, as a friend, you should be more worried.” Duan Chengyu could only smile helplessly as he sized up the items within the estate, as he felt a sense of camaraderie from what happened. ”Back then, I even believed that Litchi Bay would eventually reconcile with me.”
”In the end, it was all for nothing.”
Qi Rou's hand trembled slightly. In the next moment, Duan Chengyu had already stood up and pulled her into his embrace, ”That day, I even more so did not expect you and I to be together.”
”The right way is the wrong way. People have come out of it.” Qi Rou also sighed.
The two of them didn't know that Gu Danyan, who was waiting by the door, had seen their movements clearly.
