“I’ll write a letter to the young master to ensure he protects the Young madam. The rest of you investigate where this so-called master came from. Anyone who plots against our mistress should face the consequences.”
“Understood.”
After writing the letter, Wan Feng called the messenger hawk and placed the letter on it. “Send this letter to the young master.”
The messenger hawk rubbed against Wan Feng’s hand and then soared away.
A few days later, Su Yu received the letter that Wanfeng sent. The more he read, the darker his expression became, and in the end, he clenched the letter in his hand.
“Gu Xiruo… has quite the audacity.”
Holding the letter, Su Yu went to find Wang Jinhe, who was in the strawberry field. “Xiao He, come over; I need to talk to you.”
“That’s the idea,” Su Yu nodded. “The specific reasons are still under investigation by Wanfeng. For now, we only know that Gu Xiruo suddenly vomited blood and fainted. The head of the Gu family found a so-called master, who claimed to need heartblood. At the same time, he divined that you and Gu Xiruo share the same birthday. They came together, intending to use money to buy you from your parents and use your heartblood to save Gu Xiruo.”
Wang Jinhe’s hands clenched into fists, her eyes filled with anger. “If Gu Xiruo wants an excuse, she should find a better one. Anyone with a brain can see through this kind of excuse.”
Such an excuse, such methods, only that foolish couple from the Gu family would believe in them, right?
Mother-daughter love indeed.
Seeing Wang Jinhe angry, Su Yu felt a bit heartbroken. “Xiao He…”
“I’m fine, Su Yu. I’m just thinking about how they’ll react when they know everything.” It would be quite interesting by then.
Su Yu didn’t know if Wang Jinhe was sincere or just trying to comfort her, but regardless of the reason, he felt a deep concern.
Wang Jinhe naturally knew that Su Yu was serious, but now wasn’t the time.
“Let’s discuss it after everyone arrives. I remember you mentioned that my mother is the aunt of the main branch of the Gu family, right?” Wang Jinhe suddenly asked without any context.
“Yes.”
“That’s right. Let’s go find my parents.” Wang Jinhe pulled Su Yu along to look for Gu Jiuning.
Gu Jiuning and the old lady were playing with Hong Yi. When they saw the two approaching, they waved at them. “Xiao He, you’re here. Come and sit.”
“Mom, where’s my dad?” When she saw Gu Jiuning, Wang Jinhe suddenly remembered that Gu Jiuning was pregnant. She couldn’t afford to make her angry.
Su Yu sensed Wang Jinhe’s hesitation and whispered, “Not telling your mother now won’t change anything. Your mother will know as soon as the others arrive, and she will only be angrier then.”
Wang Jinhe furrowed her brow, unsure of what decision to make at the moment.
“What are you two whispering about? Is there something you want to tell me?” Gu Jiuning overheard them talking about wanting to speak with her. Seeing them reluctant to speak, she whispered to each other on the side.
Wang Jinhe cleared her throat and, after considering for a moment, showed Gu Jiuning Wanfeng’s letter. “Mom, take a look at this letter first.”
Gu Jiuning took the letter and read it. After finishing, she slammed it onto the table with a heavy thud. “The Gu family is truly imposing. Since when did the Gu family start doing such heartless things? Their daughter’s life is important, but aren’t others’ lives important too?”
“Don’t be angry, Mom. Take care of yourself.” Seeing Gu Jiuning so angry, Wang Jinhe hurriedly tried to calm her down.
Gu Jiuning took a deep breath, suppressing her anger. “Xiao He, you don’t need to worry about this matter. You are the daughter of Qingfeng and me. If anyone wants to harm you, they have to ask for our opinions first.”
Just a fake who dares to lay hands on Xiao He. It’s truly ridiculous.
Wang Jinhe nodded continuously, “Mom is right. I have someone backing me up.”
“I’ll talk to your father about this when he returns. I want to see if they dare to say such things after seeing me.” Gu Jiuning snorted.
She had only been away from the Gu family for over twenty years, and these people really thought she was dead.
“Mom, they…”
“Xiao He, don’t bother with them. With your father and me here, no one dares to harm you.” Gu Jiuning interrupted Wang Jinhe, not letting her worry about this matter.
Wang Jinhe stood up, walked to Gu Jiuning, and sat down, leaning affectionately against her. “Mom, you’re always the best to me.”
Gu Jiuning reached out and rubbed her daughter’s head, her eyes filled with affection. “You were raised by me, your father, and your grandparents. They need to think twice before doing anything.”
Wang Jinhe suddenly laughed. Yes, she wasn’t someone the Gu family could just take heartblood from.
The old lady, who had been silent on the side, squinted and said, “The Gu family seems to be regressing more and more.”
“With that person as the head of the Gu family, how could the Gu family be any good?” Gu Jiuning snorted.
Before they left, they were well aware of the character of the current head of the Gu family. What he would become after becoming the head was also clear. As for the so-called Madam Gu, she was excessively self-righteous.
She truly believed that becoming the Madam Gu made her the second in command of the heavens, thinking she could take anyone’s life.
The old lady nodded in agreement, “Back then, I didn’t have much hope for him. How he became the head of the Gu family is enough proof.”
