Chapter 454: Mrs. Gu’s Displeasure

Zhou Huaijin never showed any emotion on his face when facing other people, as if he were out to kill people at any time, but seeing his brother not so happy today, he knew that he was displeased by his appearance, so he became even happier.

He showed a bright smile and said cheerfully, “King Father is asking for Chaoyan, so I am coming to pick her up for the visit to the court.”

Zhou Huailing showed an even worse expression on his face.

King Father was asking for her? Were they getting married?

Zhou Huailing clenched his fists, looking very unconvinced.

He was the best man in the whole land, and Lady Chaoyan should be his. Why was she marrying his brother?!

“Are you leaving? Alright then, have a nice trip.” Zhou Huaijin showed a bright smile, adjusted his blouse and started to head towards the Gu Mansion.

Zhou Huailing clenched his teeth, saying nothing more.

Now that Lord Huai was at the doorstep, Gu Zhenkang was out there receiving him too.

He gave a push to Gu Yunhe, suggesting that he should stabilize Lord Ling whilst he himself was out there receiving Lord Huai.

He had just taken a few more steps, when Zhou Huaijin threw a look at Gu Zhenkang. “Don’t worry, Officer Gu, I will do it myself.”

Then he hurried off directly.

As Gu Zhenkang came to Lord Ling, Zhou Huailing was showing a very terrible expression on his face too – did this old man choose to help his brother instead of himself, because he thought that he was worse than his brother?

Furious though he was, he just could not utter a word at the moment.

Zhou Huailing left directly with the wagon instead of sparing one more look at the Gu Family.

Dust covered the sky.

Gu Zhenkang coughed and waved the dust away. Then he walked in to see if Lord Huai needed anything.

Zhou Huaijin was walking out with Gu Chaoyan.

With no expression on his face, Zhou Huaijin said, “Officer, King Father doesn’t like waiting, so I am taking Chaoyan away.”

Then he helped Gu Chaoyan up into the wagon and asked Fu Bao to leave directly.

The wagon took off, causing dust that covered the sky.

Gu Zhenkang waved his hands and coughed, mumbling, “What is going on?”

He did have two son-in-laws who were lords now, and they were both lords with backgrounds, but neither of them had the intention of staying for lunch. What a minor father-in-law he was!

Gu Zhenkang mumbled as Mrs. Gu glanced at him. “Serve you right!”

“What are you talking about?” Gu Zhenkang was displeased. He had worked so hard these days just for the sake of the Gu Mansion! How could Mrs. Gu speak like this?

Gu Zhenkang was displeased.

“Of course it serves you right! Lord Ling was still here and you already sucked up to Lord Huai! Lord Ling of course would get mad! If not for Ruxue Lord Ling would have snapped at you!” Mrs. Gu was displeased too. Ruxue had not yet stabilized her position at Lord Ling’s Mansion and now her father was messing things up!

She saw what Lord Ling looked like a while ago.

Now Lord Ling did not snap at Gu Zhenkang, but he might push the blame to Gu Ruxue!

She was very annoyed.

Gu Zhenkang said with back straight, “So what? Lord Huai is here, and someone needs to receive him! You and Yunhe can receive Lord Ling! Lord Huai needs attention too.”

“Also…”
