Chapter 1581: Heavy Ink

The Gu family's old house was built by imitating the classical garden and combining the old man's personal preferences with the living habits of modern people.

They first passed the main gate of the mansion, then walked through the pavilions, waterside pavilions, and the front yard with a small bridge and flowing water, and finally walked up the winding corridor and headed towards the main hall.

From a distance, Su Jiuyao saw a woman in cheongsam sitting on a chair in the corridor, staring at the lotus pond in a trance.

Behind the woman stood a man in a black suit, wearing a wireless headset, with his hands behind his back and a grim expression, looking like a bodyguard.

After walking a little further and taking a closer look, I realized it was Chen Xiaofeng.

Chen Xiaofeng had her hair styled and makeup on today. Her neat, slender eyebrows made her look like a sentimental Jiangnan woman, and the crimson lipstick on her thin lips added a strange, seductive quality.

Despite being middle-aged, Chen Xiaofeng maintains a remarkably good figure, even wearing a figure-flattering cheongsam with grace. The combination of green and crimson doesn't seem overly rustic, and against the backdrop of this simple and elegant garden, her outfit appears even more vibrant and colorful.

But her outfit and the way she stared blankly at the lotus pond were very different from her usual state.

Su Jiuyao and Gu Hanye exchanged glances. Needless to say, they both felt that something had happened and it was related to Chen Xiaofeng.

The two continued to walk forward. At this time, Gu Tianqi came from the main hall. After seeing Su Jiuyao and Gu Hanye, he nodded lightly, then shifted his gaze and walked towards his mother.

Gu Tianqi was wearing a light blue casual shirt with his cuffs rolled up. There was sweat on his forehead, as if he was busy doing something, and the expression on his face was obviously melancholy.

I don’t know what happened.

Gu Tianqi walked fast. When he came in front of Chen Xiaofeng, Su Jiuyao and Gu Hanye also strolled near Chen Xiaofeng.

Su Jiuyao could hear the conversation clearly.

Gu Tianqi said, "Mom, do you still want that chest of drawers in your study?"

Chen Xiaofeng didn't even look at him, and said lightly: "Anyway, I'm no longer a member of the Gu family, so what's the point of having a broken cabinet?"

Gu Tianqi pursed her lips and said, "The truck can't hold it anymore. If you still want it, I'll move it to my room first."

"It's up to you." She said calmly.

Gu Tianqi sighed, said nothing more, turned and walked into the house.

Su Jiuyao and Gu Hanye had already arrived at Chen Xiaofeng's location, and the bodyguard greeted them respectfully: "Hello, Young Master, Hello, Young Madam."

Gu Hanye nodded.

At the same time, Chen Xiaofeng turned around and his eyes fell on Su Jiuyao.

"Jiuyao is here."

Chen Xiaofeng's tone and eyes were very similar to the day when Jiuyao first came to the Gu family's old house, very gentle.

At that time, Chen Xiaofeng had a good impression on Su Jiuyao. She thought she was a wealthy lady who lived a secluded life, was cautious in her words and actions, and was respectful to her father-in-law and husband.

But a series of things she did later made Su Jiuyao change her initial impression of her.

Today, Chen Xiaofeng's eyes were sharper, like a she-wolf at the end of her rope.

Su Jiuyao subconsciously wanted to call her "Auntie", but she just pursed her lips and didn't even nod.

What Chen Xiaofeng had done to her and Gu Hanye had made Su Jiuyao no longer want to maintain any superficial courtesy.

Chen Xiaofeng spoke again, "When I was on the cruise ship, I knew you had fallen into the sea. I was afraid Shaobin would be implicated, so I didn't send anyone to rescue you. I'm so sorry."

"The person you should apologize to is Han Ye." Su Jiuyao said coldly.
