The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story - Chapter 189

189 Breaking the Happiness

As the girl slowly walked over, her skirt swayed gently. She was elegant and dignified, as quiet as water.

“Big Sister.”

Gu Yanfei smiled when she saw Gu Yunzhen, but Gu Yunzhen frowned and raised her hand to cover her forehead. At the same time, she asked, “Juan Bi, when did your lady wake up? Has she eaten?”

When she faced Gu Yunzhen, Juan Bi straightened her back and felt a sense of respect. She answered truthfully.

!!
Gu Yunzhen was relieved to hear that Gu Yanfei had already eaten the porridge and noodles.

If she had a good appetite, it meant that she was fine.

Gu Yunzhen turned to face Gu Yanfei and reached out an index finger to gently tap the tip of her nose. She scolded softly, “Did you not rest well tonight because you wanted to look at the painting book?”

“Even Qing Guang knows to sleep more when tired. You’re already an adult, why can’t you be as obedient as a cat!”

When Gu Yunzhen heard yesterday that Gu Yanfei had tired herself out, her heart ached, and she felt a little helpless.

Qing Guang, who was eating chicken shreds, heard its name and subconsciously meowed. It wanted to look up, but Gu Yanfei pressed it back into the cat bowl.

Gu Yanfei giggled and hugged Gu Yunzhen’s slender waist. She giggled and rubbed against her shoulder like a cat.

Blood had returned to her pale skin and her laughter was crisp again.

Being hugged by Gu Yanfei like this, Gu Yunzhen could not continue scolding her. She raised her hand and hugged her slender shoulder intimately.

Qing Guang glanced at the annoying sisters in disdain and leaped out of the window to play outside.

The snow had stopped a long time ago. Outside, the roof and treetops were piled high with snow. The white snow reflected the morning sun, making it a dazzling crystal, and even the house was much brighter.

Gu Yanfei’s eyes darted around, and she said coquettishly, “Big Sister, why are you back so early?”

She had originally heard that Gu Yunzhen and Madam Yan would only return before the new year.

“It’s getting late.” Gu Yunzhen’s expression was a little indescribable. She reached out and tapped the tip of Gu Yanfei’s nose again. “It’s already the 27th of December today.”

She sighed faintly, as if to say, ‘You’ve really slept for the past three days.’

Gu Yanfei could only pretend to be obedient. She smiled and continued to change the topic. “Big Sister, why are you dressed so plainly?”

She sized Gu Yunzhen up. Not only was Gu Yunzhen dressed plainly today, but her accessories were also plain. Her bun was the simplest, and there was only a jade hairpin in her hair. There was no color on her body.

Gu Yunzhen pursed her lips with a fleeting gaze and hesitated for a moment.

Thinking that there were no outsiders here, she said, “I’m going to the Murong family with Madam later. The Old Madam of the Murong family is seriously ill.”

Gu Yanfei obediently handed her tea.

Gu Yunzhen did not stand on ceremony with Gu Yanfei. She took the teacup and took a sip before saying in a low voice, “…My marriage might be brought forward.”

Marriage brought forward?! Gu Yanfei was stunned. The pink teacup in her hand stopped in midair, and her fingers subconsciously turned the cup slightly.

Faced with her sister, Gu Yunzhen did not beat around the bush. She pursed her lips and said bluntly, “The Old Madam is seriously ill. The Murong family said that they want to bring forward the marriage to bring joy to the Old Madam.”

Her voice dropped to a whisper.

She lowered her eyelashes, and her small chin was slightly lowered in a delicate manner.

Gu Yanfei frowned and asked, “Big Sister, what did Third Aunt say?”

Gu Yunzhen’s half-lowered eyelashes fluttered slightly. The watery light of the tea was reflected in her autumn eyes as she said slowly, “Grandma said that it’s good that the marriage is brought forward. Otherwise, the Murong family might have to observe three years of filial piety, and I’ll be too old by that time.”

“Mother thought so too.”

Gu Yanfei put down the teacup in her hand and tried her best to recall what had happened in her previous life. Her eyes narrowed.

Was there such a thing in her previous life?!

In her previous life, Gu Yanfei knew too little about the Murong family.

She only knew that because her eldest sister had injured her face, her marriage with Murong Yong had been delayed for half a year and was set to take place in August of the following year. After that, the marriage was held as scheduled without any delay because of “filial piety”. In other words, the Old Madam of the Murong family had not died of illness in her previous life?

Why had she changed so much in this life?

Gu Yanfei’s eyes darted around slightly. After thinking for a moment, she asked tactfully, “Did Big Brother tell you about Murong Yong?”

Ever since he returned from Tianyin Pavilion that day, Gu Yuan had asked his friends to investigate Murong Yong. Murong Yong indeed had two mistresses. One was an actress, and the other was a courtesan. He had set up two residences outside and did not bring her back to the residence.

“Big Brother told me.” Gu Yunzhen nodded slightly. There was an almost invisible hoarseness in her neutral voice.

Her face was half-lowered, revealing a fair and delicate neck with beautiful lines.

Yesterday, as soon as Gu Yunzhen returned to the Marquis Mansion, Gu Yuan told her that Murong Yong was raising a mistress outside.

It was not just these two mistresses. Murong Yong still had a concubine with an open face.

That concubine was his personal maidservant and had served him for seven to eight years. Last year, she was pregnant. After being drugged by Madam Murong, she lost a lot of blood and was eventually carried out dead on a straw mat…

Gu Yunzhen turned her face to the window and stared blankly at the cat outside. Her long eyelashes cast faint shadows on her fair cheeks.

The calico cat was frolicking in the sunny courtyard, carefree and meowing non-stop.

The atmosphere in the room was unusually quiet and lonely.

Gu Yunzhen sighed slightly, and her eyes dimmed for a moment, as if something was slowly sinking into a deep pool of water.
