The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story - Chapter 216

216 As You Wish

Gu Yuan had been working in the palace last night and had just rushed back from the palace this morning. As soon as he returned to the residence, he learned from the servant, Wu Tong, that Gu Yanfei had been punished by Madam Gu to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Although his sister was smart and didn’t suffer any losses, in the past two months, Madam had targeted his sister time and time again. She had simply gone too far.

Gu Yuan looked at Madam Gu with a gaze as cold as ice and as determined as a sword.

The entire front hall was silent. The others all looked at the grandfather and granddaughter in silence.

!!
Gu Jian frowned and said in the tone of an elder, “Yuan’er, today is a big day to worship our ancestors. Don’t throw a tantrum and cause trouble!”

“The elders do everything for your own good!”

He looked sincere and earnest.

Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes distant. He said coldly, “Is it good for you to tamper with the bowstring?”

What did he mean?! Most of the other Gu family members present didn’t know about this and couldn’t help but look at each other.

“…” Gu Jian’s face turned green and he was speechless.

He wanted to say that Gu Yuan had misunderstood and wanted to brush this matter off, but Gu Yuan greeted him with a faint smile, “Marquis, has your arm recovered?”

As he spoke, Gu Yuan looked meaningfully at Gu Jian’s injured arm, attracting the attention of the others.

Someone immediately remembered that the reason why Gu Jian’s right arm seemed to be injured was because the rhinoceros horn bow had broken its string. However, from the meaning in Gu Yuan’s words, could it be that this was not an “accident”?

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Gu Jian meaningfully with their own guesses.

“…” Gu Jian felt as if their gazes were piercing. His expression darkened even more, and he felt a dull pain from his right shoulder to his right arm.

Of course it had yet to recover!

Now that his injured arm was in a cast and his right forearm was hanging from his chest in a bandage, his appearance was tantamount to writing the words “I’m an injured person” on him. Anyone could tell that he hadn’t recovered.

Gu Yuan was asking the obvious!

The more Gu Jian thought about it, the more displeased he became. He couldn’t help but think more and more. He repeatedly thought about Gu Yuan’s words and felt that there was a needle hidden in the cotton wool. Gu Yuan was clearly mocking him for deserving it.

In the past, Gu Yuan wouldn’t have dared to be so rude to his uncle. This kid was just smug because he was now on guard duty!

Gu Jian gritted his teeth and assumed the posture of the Dingyuan Marquis. He raised his voice and reprimanded, “Yuan’er, you’re so unruly and disobeyed your elders. Do you believe that I’ll teach you a lesson…”

As he spoke, Gu Jian flew into a rage out of humiliation. He really felt embarrassed to be ridiculed by his nephew in front of his two brothers and a group of juniors.

However, before he could finish, Madam Gu interrupted him coldly.

“Enough.”

Madam Gu’s voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was powerful. At the same time, she gave Gu Jian a look, indicating for him to stop talking nonsense.

Gu Jian could only shut his mouth in embarrassment, though he was still unconvinced.

Gu Yuan didn’t care about the argument between the mother and son. He casually brushed the non-existent dust off his shoulder and smiled mockingly.

“Madam, Marquis, you’re really arrogant. One wants to send her granddaughter to the nunnery, and the other wants to harm his nephew…”

“Sister, are you scared?” Gu Yuan turned to look at Gu Yanfei seriously and even took out a new handkerchief for her. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

Gu Yanfei cooperated and took the handkerchief from Gu Yuan. She pretended to wipe the corners of her eyes and nodded with sparkling eyes. “With Brother around, I’m not afraid.”

Her voice was clear, and she looked as obedient as possible.

Gu Yuan enjoyed this very much and rubbed the top of her soft head.

The corners of Madam Gu’s mouth twitched as she glanced back and forth between Gu Yanfei and Gu Yunzhen.

She was so far away, but she could already smell the alcohol on these two girls. They must have drunk a lot that night. Gu Yanfei was almost lawless, and she still had the cheek to say that she was “not afraid”!

This pair of siblings was clearly making use of the situation!

Gu Yanfei had no intention of bothering to hide the smell of alcohol. She continued to wipe the unnecessary tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, as if she was just wearing a perfume bag with a special smell.

The front room fell into a dead silence, the undercurrents surging.

Looking at the siblings, Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei, Madam Gu’s eyes darkened bit by bit. She gripped the prayer beads tightly with one hand.
