1461 Over Affection 1
Soon, night would come.
The wagon of the Gu Mansion led the way and he even made it so the coachman could slow down and come to the mansion when it had turned dark.
So that Gu Chaoyan’s move into Begonia Yard could be delayed.
If only she did not have to move in today.
She could spend the night at the old yard, and he could go to Begonia Yard to have a good conversation with Ruxue so that she could be prepared to give in for further benefits.
During these days… He had seen through many things after going through different experiences.
Ruxue had been the Crown Prince Consort for a long while, and she had been through a lot in both the Crown Prince’s Mansion and in the court. She should be more reasonable now.
Gu Zhenkang felt much more relaxed.
He still believed that there was a chance to turn over the table.
It was not snowing any more. The day was getting better and the snow on the ground became thinner. It was not a bumpy road like before.
They were very slow as they moved forward.
Finally, they arrived at the Gu Mansion directly.
Gu Zhenkang got out of the wagon and went to greet Gu Chaoyan.
De Fu and the eunuch from the court also got off the wagon to make arrangements. Lady Chaoyan had picked many things from the storage house and those should be carried into the Gu Mansion first.
De Fu had imperial soldiers to carry the stuff whilst he stayed by Gu Chaoyan’s side.
Seeing that De Fu was here, Gu Zhenkang mentioned that it was getting dark outside. “Chief De Fu, I have found that the King has given her too many things and they should be arranged right now, but it may be dark soon so I hope that the Phoenix Girl can live in another yard for tonight and the settlement should be done by tomorrow, so that the Phoenix Girl can move in.”
Hearing that, De Fu turned to Gu Chaoyan.
He had received Lady Chaoyan’s presents and he was going to follow Lady Chaoyan’s order.
“What do you think, Lady Chaoyan? Is that proper?” De Fu asked.
“No need to make trouble. I don’t want to live in any other yard. I can watch the move from the helpers in the court. It doesn’t matter how long it is going to take for the settlement, as long as it can be done tonight.” Gu Chaoyan countered Gu Zhenkang directly.
She understood exactly what Gu Zhenkang’s purpose was.
Honestly… She did feel jealous about Gu Ruxue for being taken care of by her birth mother, even though she was not the Phoenix Girl. And this father of theirs, who only cared about interests, still cared about her at this moment.
If Ms. Lin had not been killed by them, Gu Chaoyan would have dropped it, but they were too cruel and for their own benefits they almost killed two people. There was some revenge she needed to take on them.
With a cold face, Gu Chaoyan walked into the Gu Mansion directly.
She was not walking fast and she did not head towards Begonia Yard directly. She was just watching the presents she picked move in little by little.

At Begonia Yard.
Gu Ruxue, who had been eating snacks in the room, walked out upon hearing the chaos outside.
She was very happy at the sight of this.
The imperial soldiers were carrying so many boxes into her yard.
