C15 Palm-slap

Gu Xiaoxiao had already made up her mind. Since Gu An'an wanted to harm her, she might as well do as she wanted. However, this Gu An'an was really stupid. There was only one room in the guest courtyard, how could he hide the man from outside with his mother?

Just by thinking about it, one would know that it was impossible.

"Father, don't listen to my sister's nonsense. How could I do such a thing without proper sense? Little sister, why did you do this to me? "

Gu An An thought about whether she had guessed correctly or not. She had only wanted to scare Gu Xiaoxiao a little, but hadn't thought that she would have such a huge reaction.

"Is there not much unreasonable things that elder sister has done these days? "Before, you called me by my first name, but now, your attitude has clearly changed. It's obvious that I was right."

Gu An An and Gu Xiaoxiao argued for a good while, but Marquis Yuan stood aside without saying a word.

In his heart, he was deciding what to do.

If they found a man in the courtyard, Gu Xiaoxiao's reputation would be ruined. Although Marquis Zhen didn't care if Gu Xiaoxiao lived or died, he could still marry her if necessary with a daughter in his hands.

Moreover, this matter was really lost if word of it were to spread.

"Anthea, did you really hear that? I've seen that your sister isn't such a person, so let's go back today. "

When Gu An An saw that Marquis Zhen Yuan was about to give up, he immediately cried. "Father, do you not believe in your daughter?" "Elder sister said that I framed her. Do you also think that I framed her? The guards of the house of the Marquis are all here, father cannot let them see a joke."

Marquis Yuan Zhou was a little angry in his heart. Although this Gu An'an was obedient, he sometimes didn't pay attention to the overall situation.

"Enough, there is no need to speak of what happened today. "No matter what, Gu Xiaoxiao is still your sister. How can you treat your own sister like this?"

Gu An'an clearly hadn't expected that Marquis Zhen Yuan would suddenly stand by Gu Xiaoxiao's side. Her heart was filled with despair, and as she watched Marquis Yuan's retreating back, she was filled with determination. Gu An'an had already cried to the point of tears.

"Father, since I was young, you have taught me to be fair, honest, and honest. Today, I am only saying what I have seen and heard, yet you treat me like this. After so long, all the things that you have taught me before, what power do they have to believe in? "

With these words, Marquis Yuan stopped in his tracks.

When Gu Xiaoxiao saw him stop, she was naturally happy. In any case, they couldn't find a man in the courtyard, so it was good that they had a good look at him. Otherwise, Marquis Zhen really would have thought he was hiding a man in his heart.

The Marquis of Zhenyuan stood there for a long time, as if time itself had stopped. For a moment, the courtyard was frighteningly quiet, to the point that the sound of a needle hitting the ground could be heard.

After a long while, Marquis Zhenyuan spoke, "An An, father was in the wrong with today's matter."

Gu An An heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed Marquis Yuan was still standing on his side.

"If that's the case, then bring the guards to search this courtyard." "Father is tired. Let's go back to his room to rest."

Having received the order, Gu An An immediately jumped in joy. However, Marquis Yuan was not in the mood for this. He left the courtyard in quick steps, as if he was afraid of the result.

Gu Xiaoxiao was quiet for a long time before she finally spoke up. "You really want to search?"

Gu An'an snorted coldly. If Gu Xiaoxiao hadn't been so guilty, she wouldn't have been so sure of herself.

She was looking for an opportunity to punish Gu Xiaoxiao. She didn't know what kind of crime it would be to hide a man after he was discovered. Should she immerse herself in the pig cage?

"Father already gave the order, so of course I have to search. Gu Xiaoxiao, just wait for death."

At this moment, Gu An An had lost all signs of weakness, and his entire aura had undergone a change. The guards at the side were all dumbfounded. Was this still the normally gentle and refined second young miss?

Gu Xiaoxiao became forceful for a moment. "Alright. If you haven't found the man from outside, you'd better give me a slap."

Gu An An An was a little afraid, but recalling her incomparably guilty look from before, she felt like she was bluffing.

"Heh, you better think about how to explain it to father."

With that, Gu An led the guards around the courtyard.

Mrs Zhao and Xiaolian were awakened long ago. They watched through the crack in the door until Gu Xiaoxiao finished saying her last request. Only then did they know what Gu Xiaoxiao's plan was.

Originally, they had been worried that Gu Xiaoxiao had hidden some man from them.

"Madam, don't you see that Miss has changed quite quickly these past two days? It seems like she has become smarter."

Mrs Zhao nodded. Previously, her mother, Gu Xiaoxiao's grandmother, had always said that she had no shrewdness. If she went to her in-laws' home in the future, she would be easily bullied.

Mrs Zhao, on the other hand, felt that the Marquis of Zhenyuan loved her. She didn't expect reality to deal such a heavy blow to her in the end.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxiao now, Mrs Zhao felt more at ease. At least she wouldn't be bullied in the future.

Gu An'an led his guards and searched the courtyard, but couldn't even find a single complete object, let alone a single person. Even the guards felt that the guest house was an extremely dilapidated place, and the place they lived in was even better than this.

Finally, Gu An's group made their way to the entrance in a grandiose manner, but was stopped by Gu Xiao.

"What is it? Feeling guilty? "

Gu Xiaoxiao smiled. "Are you a pig? There's only one room in the courtyard. My mother and Xiaolian are inside. Is it appropriate for you to bring the guards in the middle of the night?" If I don't stop you, the one who will be punished tomorrow will be you. "

Gu An An shivered. She hadn't really thought of this. Although Marquis Yuan didn't like Madame Zhao anymore, he definitely wouldn't allow a guard to enter her room in the middle of the night.

"Alright, wait for me outside." With that, Gu An An walked into the house alone.

When Lady Zhao and Xiao Lian saw that they were both neatly dressed, she called the guards in. This was his last hope. Gu An'an searched through every nook and cranny, but still couldn't find anyone.

"Forget it, it seems like I heard wrong." It's getting late today. Hurry up and go back to rest, I'm also going to sleep. "

As soon as Gu An An An finished speaking, he ran out the door, as if he had forgotten his promise.

But Gu Xiaoxiao wasn't as stupid as she was. He wanted to fool her? Dream on!

Gu Xiaoxiao didn't say a word, but grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

For a moment, Gu An An was like a marionette in Gu Xiaoxiao's hands, unable to move at all.

Even the guards on the side were amazed at Gu Xiaoxiao's strength.

Gu Xiaoxiao wanted to be ruthless to someone like Gu An'an. She didn't even think as she slapped her fiercely.

It was unknown if it was an illusion, but it seemed as if the entire courtyard was reverberating with that crisp voice.
