The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story - Chapter 198

198 Decision

Gu Yanfei and Gu Yunzhen had already boarded their carriage. The carriage was still parked outside the gate, waiting for Madam Gu to leave with them.

In the carriage, the light was dim and the air was cold.

“Yanfei, warm your hands.” Gu Yunzhen handed Gu Yanfei a small and exquisite pumpkin-shaped hand stove.

The warm hand warmer was placed in Gu Yanfei’s hand and pressed against her heart through her skin.

!!
In the Gu family, only Big Sister would be so meticulous toward her.

As for Big Brother…

Big Brother wasn’t afraid of the cold and didn’t expect a girl to need a hand stove.

Gu Yanfei couldn’t help but smile.

She casually placed the stove on her knees and personally poured tea for Gu Yunzhen, then handed the cup of tea to her.

“Big Sister, the Murong family is not a good place,” she said without hiding her intentions.

“This marriage is not a good idea.”

As this crisp voice sounded, a faint fragrance of tea lingered in Gu Yunzhen’s nose. It was clear and mellow, nourishing Gu Yunzhen’s heart like spring rain.

Gu Yunzhen was already used to Gu Yanfei’s straightforward style. She was not surprised, and even felt that it was as she had expected. Even the haze buried in the depths of her heart was dispelled a little.

She gently held Gu Yanfei’s hand, her palm against hers, and her eyes were gentle.

Of course, she knew that Gu Yanfei had specially come to the Murong family today purely for her. She wanted to help her see Murong Yong’s character in the name of visiting Old Madam Murong.

She also knew that Gu Yanfei was right.

However…

The scene in the warm pavilion flashed through her mind. Gu Yunzhen could not help but purse her lips, and her chest heaved slightly, as if this was the only way she could suppress the surging emotions in her heart.

However, she had to consider her mother and her second sister.

If her grandmother knew that her second sister had instigated her to break off the engagement, she would definitely be even angrier.

All these years, the third branch had been in an awkward situation in the Marquis Household. The eldest branch was also in the same position.

The eldest branch’s eldest uncle and aunt were no longer around. This meant that Eldest Brother’s future and Second Sister’s marriage were in the hands of their grandmother and second uncle.

Eldest Brother did not rely on the grace of his father and had trained in the army for many years. It was not easy for him to be promoted to battalion commander in the Divine Arms Battalion. He was the only one who knew how hard he had worked. In the future, if Eldest Brother wanted to gain a foothold, he would also need his family’s help.

At the thought of this, a hint of helplessness and struggle slowly appeared in her dark eyes…

Soon, she suppressed the negative emotions in her heart and smiled gently. She gently stroked the top of Gu Yanfei’s head.

“Yanfei, I’ll consider it carefully.” She looked deeply into Gu Yanfei’s eyes and did not avoid them at all. She let her clear gaze strike her heart and said sincerely, “All I asked for is to respect each other.”

“But in this world, how many women have lived like this? I’m no different from them.”

Her voice was very rational and calm.

From the day her father died, she was no longer a delicate flower in the greenhouse. She wanted to protect herself and her mother.

“It’s different.” Gu Yanfei shook her head.

She casually lifted a corner of the curtain. A knife-like cold wind blew in through the gap, messing up the hair on Gu Yanfei’s cheek.

Gu Yanfei’s gaze was even sharper than the cold wind outside. She accurately looked to the northwest, at the courtyard where Old Madam Murong was.

This residence was different.

Old Madam Murong’s body was surrounded by a thick aura of death and a rotten smell.

Gu Yanfei was almost certain that she was dead.

And…

Gu Yanfei looked around again. The high walls around the mansion, the stone beasts squatting on the eaves, the dead pine trees, the dry small pond, and the talismans stuck to the windows…

The entire mansion was filled with a suffocating aura.

Among Taoist doctors, there was indeed a saying of “rushing good fortune”.

In her previous life, the Murong family did not mourn. In other words, Old Madam Murong had survived.

The reason why Old Madam Murong was sick had nothing to do with external causes. In her previous life, she should have been sick at this moment. Then why did she survive in her previous life?

The reason was obvious.

In her previous life, someone else must have rushed good fortune for Madam Murong.

Gu Yanfei raised her hand and tucked a few strands of messy hair behind her ear. She leaned lazily against the wall of the carriage, not hiding her displeasure. She snorted and said, “This mansion is really uncomfortable.”

She was about to put down the curtains when she saw Madam Gu walking over slowly.

Their eyes met in midair for a moment.
