1456 Back to Gu Mansion 3
Seeing her indifferent look, Gu Zhenkang and the King had thought that it was not going to be easy to convince her to move back.
They were just planning another speech, which they decided to deliver after Gu Chaoyan said anything… so when they heard her saying yes, they were startled for a long while.
They looked really happy.
“Any condition. Anything will work!” the King said excitedly.
As long as she was willing to move back to her old home… everything else would not matter.
Even if it meant a lot of money. He could say yes at the moment.
Gu Zhenkang nodded next to them.
Nothing else mattered more than her willingness to move back.
Gu Chaoyan sipped the tea, thought for a while about the condition. “The yard you arranged for me has a terrible name. I don’t want to get misfortune whilst living there.”
“Where do you want to live? I will make that happen directly.” Gu Zhenkang let out a sigh of relief. Accommodation was a small thing. She could live anywhere she wanted at Gu Mansion, including his own place.
Gu Chaoyan tapped the table, trying to force an idea out, and then said. “Begonia Yard will do. And I hate those flowers, too shining. Replace them with peonies, which I like.”
“…”
“Nothing else. And the maids you arrange, they can live with me at Begonia Yard, the original maids should be replaced.”
“…”
“When can you have that sorted out? I don’t like the atmosphere here in the court,” Gu Chaoyan said indifferently.
Gu Zhenkang hesitated.
Begonia Yard was where Ruxue lived.
If she was asked to move, he was not sure if she would agree, but…
There was no other solution but to make Ruxue step away. Gu Chaoyan was the Phoenix Girl, and Gu Ruxue might need her help in the future too. Anyway, it was just a small yard.
Ruxue would be the Queen, who would live at Weiyang Palace, so she did not have to care about Begonia Yard.
Gu Zhenkang thought that was reasonable, so he said directly, “Okay, okay. Begonia Yard will do. I will have Begonia Yard cleaned and the flowers removed. I will pick you up from here tomorrow. What do you think?”
Gu Zhenkang made the arrangement.
For one thing, he needed time for cleaning. For another, he needed to speak with Ruxue first so that she could accept it first.
Hearing his arrangement…
Gu Chaoyan frowned.
Tomorrow?
Gu Zhenkang had some plans, didn’t he?
Gu Zhenkang could marry Ms. Lin for her money, and he could even bow to her for her identity as the Phoenix Girl, but for some reason, he did care about Gu Ruxue.
No wonder he would set up Ms. Lin for Mrs. Gu and her children.
Gu Chaoyan sneered.
“Why tomorrow? Today will do. It is not late today. You can have the yards cleaned while I am there, and I can even make sure that the decoration is done according to my taste, saving a lot of trouble tomorrow,” Gu Chaoyan said straightforwardly.
“Today will do. De Fu can walk you out and supervise the cleaning for me,” the King said directly, without knowing what Gu Zhenkang was thinking.
“Well…” Gu Zhenkang started to sweat.
