Qian Da and Qian Dajia quickly said, "No, no, it's all a misunderstanding."

Hongye also stepped forward and said a few kind words.

That was the end of that.

The two were about to leave.

Gu Jinghui said again, "Wait a minute."

Qin Yuan glanced at him, wondering what he was about to do next.

Qian Da asked, "Does Your Excellency have any further instructions? Please tell me now, otherwise I don't know when this old servant will be able to leave this room."

Gu Jinghui laughed and said, "Take the brambles with you."

Qian Da glanced at Lord Gu and stamped his foot, saying, "Lord Gu is still the same as when he was a child."

Despite saying that, she still took the brambles with her.

Gu Jinghui held Qin Yuan's hand and complained, "You've been making a scene so early in the morning. I'm starving. Let's set out the meal quickly."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Okay."

Gu Jinghui added, "The two of them have been standing here for a while, they must be hungry too. We'll eat by ourselves, we don't need them to serve us."

Qin Yuan agreed.

Gu Jinghui gave her face in front of the Qian couple, letting her make the decision and agreeing to whatever he said.

Cui Ming pursed her lips and carefully laid out the breakfast. Fortunately, it was summer, and the food hadn't gotten too cold even after the delay.

Gu Jinghui exclaimed, "I'm absolutely starving."

Qin Yuan was actually hungry too.

The two finished their breakfast in silence. After rinsing their mouths, Gu Jinghui said, "Today..."

Before he could finish speaking, a commotion broke out outside the courtyard again.

Gu Jinghui frowned and said angrily, "Why can't this go on any longer?"

This time he recognized the voice; it was Gu Baozhu, who was supposed to be in solitary confinement, who had come with Cheng Ge'er and Yu Jie'er.
