Yes, I’m indeed charming and peerless!
Yes, how could anyone in this world not like me!
The cat jumped lightly and returned to the table again. It slowly licked its front paws and washed its face. Occasionally, it would glance at Xia Houqing from the corner of its eye.
Xia Houqing slowly tidied his sleeves.
After confirming that it was safe and sound, the cat began to push its luck again. It circled half a circle on the table, scrabbled with its claws, and pulled away the red fan. Then, it lowered its head and picked up the talisman in its mouth, shaking its long tail that was like a feather duster.
It brought the talisman to Xia Houqing and meowed.
Its voice was soft and sweet, as if it was asking for credit.
One end of the talisman was wet and stained with the cat’s saliva.
This cat is too picky! Xia Houqing looked at the cat and pursed his lips in disdain.
However, he still reached out and pinched the half-wet talisman. He shook it and shook it again.
“Meow-” Qing Guang meowed happily and rubbed its fluffy head against Xia Houqing’s cold hand.
The long-haired cat was fluffy and warm, like a warm hand stove.
The talisman between his fingers was also warm.
No matter if it was spring, summer, autumn, or winter, his fingertips were always cold. Now, his body was gradually warming up, as if it was starting to warm up from his limbs to his heart…
“How warm.”
Xia Houqing said almost silently. It was unknown if he was talking about the cat or the talisman.
His eyes were unbelievably gentle for a moment, but it was only for a moment. Then, his phoenix eyes became as deep as the night.
The cat felt that he was talking about it, of course. It meowed a few times in a row, proud and confident.
Soon, hurried footsteps came. People came in and out of the private room. Dried fish, goat milk, chicken jerky, stove, cat nest, and so on were carried in.
Outside the window, the sun was setting bit by bit. The sky was getting darker, and night had fallen.
When Gu Yanfei woke up, it was already the next day. The sky was bright, and she slept very well.
Without the sound of the cat running in the morning and meowing at dawn, she slept soundly until late in the morning.
Gu Yanfei was full of energy after sleeping, but Juan Bi looked anxious.
She had actually been waiting for a long time. Seeing that Gu Yanfei had finally woken up, she hurriedly reported, “Miss, someone is causing trouble outside.”
Juan Bi quickly soaked the white scarf and dried it before handing it to Gu Yanfei to wipe her face.
“Trouble?” Gu Yanfei asked casually as she washed her face.
“That’s right,” Juan Bi said. “An hour ago, someone came to the entrance of the manor and made a fuss. He threw away fruits and vegetables and kept saying that the late Marquis had betrayed the country and asked the Gu family to get out of the capital.”
“The doorkeeper said that the door to the residence has been closed for the time being, but there are still people surrounding the door and making a fuss.”
“Master isn’t here, so the doorkeeper reported it to Miss.”
Ever since the Marquis Mansion split up, the servants in the manor began to address Gu Yuan as “Master”.
Gu Yanfei casually threw the white scarf into the copper basin. She tidied her hair and stroked her dress.
It had been nine years since her father’s death. Now, someone was still making a fuss. It was obvious that someone was fanning the flames.
“Miss, what should we do?” Juan Bi asked helplessly.
“Don’t worry about it.” Gu Yanfei sat down by the window and planned to start eating breakfast.
She only had one mouth. It was the most unwise thing to try to talk back to tens of millions of people.
“Yes,” Juan Bi replied hesitantly.
Just as she was about to serve Gu Yanfei breakfast, she saw Gu Yanfei, who had just sat down, suddenly get up and walk out without saying a word.
Gu Yanfei strode out of the house. Her footsteps were valiant but light, and her pupils were like a pool of still water.
Although it was irrational, nothing could be judged rationally.
She felt uncomfortable and didn’t want to hold it in.
Juan Bi was a beat slower. Looking at Gu Yanfei’s tall figure, she vaguely guessed something and quickly followed her.
The master and servant walked all the way to the door. From afar, they could hear the noisy scolding outside the residence.
“Gu Ce betrayed the country and defected to the enemy. He’s simply despicable and shameless!”
“Shameless traitors should be cut into pieces, burned to ashes, and never reincarnated!”
“Gu Ce is an eternal sinner. He has let down the Great Jin, his parents, and the people of Yangzhou!”
The curses outside rose and fell like waves. From the sounds, there were at least dozens of people surrounding outside..
