General Xu was happy that his daughter finally came to her senses, but he became worried again when she acted like this.

"Yier, did Gu Shaoyu do anything? Did he treat you badly?"

Xu Jinyi shook her head, not wanting her father to worry, and she would take care of Gu Shaoyu and Qiao Yunbai.

"It's just that as I look at the scenery along the way, the poor loving couples, and the wealthy families, I suddenly feel that what you said before is very true."

"If a man loves me, he will never let me suffer any injustice, let alone be criticized by others."

"If I elope with him this time, what will others say about me and our General's Mansion?"

"So I can't leave. If he really loves me, he'll think about me and be willing to wait for me. Otherwise, it's better not to have a man like that."

"As the daughter of General Xu, am I worried about not finding a good husband?"

General Xu nodded with satisfaction and was overjoyed. Only a daughter like this could embody the military spirit of their family.

Looking at his daughter, General Xu suddenly felt that the Xu family's daughter was beginning to grow up.

"Then Daddy will send someone to pick up Yun'er to accompany you in two days. It's thanks to her that you can figure it out."

General Xu thought that Xu Jinyi would suddenly come to his senses on the way, and it must be the result of Qiao Yunbai's counseling of Xu Jinyi.

So I was very grateful to Qiao Yunbai in my heart.

As soon as Xu Jinyi saw his father, she knew he was overthinking it. Qiao Yunbai was very good at acting, and a military commander like her father could easily be led by her.

So Xu Jinyi had to remind his father.

"Dad, my cousin is not young anymore. It's not right for her to always live in our house."

"If this delays my aunt from finding a partner, it will be our fault."

"Now that my daughter has grown up, she doesn't need a playmate anymore. I think we should return everything in her cousin's room."

General Xu, who always understood his daughter, frowned. "Yier, did Qiao Yunbai make you angry? Did she do something?"

His daughter knew him well. If Qiao Yunbai hadn't done anything excessive, given how much his daughter depended on her, she would never have asked to chase her away.

Although he is a military general, he is not a rough guy. He understands Qiao Yunbai's little thoughts.

It was just that she had made her daughter happy, so it was just a matter of having one more pair of chopsticks in the house.

He could afford it, but if Qiao Yunbai really did anything to his daughter, he would never forgive her.

A warm feeling passed through Xu Jinyi's heart. From her father's tone, she knew how much he doted on her.

He was calling her Yun'er one moment, and the next second he turned hostile and called her by her full name. It was all because of her.

"No, my cousin didn't make me angry. She even blessed me and Brother Shaoyu, saying that she was moved by our love and even covered for me."

When General Xu heard this, his face turned ashen and he was extremely angry.

Looking at his innocent daughter, he didn't want to let such a small matter pollute her, so he put on his clothes.

"Indeed, I was not thoughtful enough. Your cousin is indeed old enough to be married, and it is not appropriate for her to live in our house."

"Butler, arrange for someone to pack up all of Qiao Yunbai's belongings and send them back to the Qiao family."

"yes."

"Yier, then you should have a good rest. Your father will go and get busy first."

Turning around, General Xu looked very ugly. He didn't expect that he had been fooled by a little girl in his entire life.

Qiao Yunbai had promised him many times that she would persuade Xu Jinyi well, but he didn't expect that she would be so two-faced in front of others and behind their backs.

He actually instigated her daughter to elope. What was his intention?

Could it be that he has raised an ungrateful person over the years? Did she think that if his daughter eloped, she, Qiao Yunbai, could take his daughter's place?

He actually thought Qiao Yunbai was good, and as long as it would make his daughter happy, he would let her marry with the title of the second lady of the general's mansion.

He even thought about contributing to her dowry.

After the butler said that the things had been packed up, General Xu ordered the butler to send the things back with great fanfare.

All the wardrobes, beds, and tables used by Qiao Yunbai were sent over.

He let everyone in the capital know that he, General Xu, had only one daughter and no second daughter.

After Qiao Yunbai left, he did not go back to the Qiao family directly, but changed to an ordinary carriage to go to the place where he would meet Gu Shaoyu.

Gu Shaoyu sat in a small teahouse outside Beijing, staring at the fork in the road. Seeing that the agreed time had passed and the Xu family's carriage had not appeared for a long time, he looked a little anxious.

Worried that something might happen, he looked worried.

It wasn't until he saw Qiao Yunbai getting off an ordinary carriage with no trace of Xu Jinyi behind him that his eyes became solemn.

"Brother Shaoyu."

"Yun'er, why are you the only one here? Where is Xu Jinyi?" Gu Shaoyu glanced at the carriage.

Qiao Yunbai shook her head and told him about Xu Jinyi's change of mind.

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu looked at the person in his arms suspiciously: "You didn't reveal anything, did you?"

Qiao Yunbai shook her head affirmatively: "Of course not. Yun'er knows how much help Xu Jinyi has given to you, Brother Shaoyu. How could he possibly hold you back?"

"Of course, I don't want you to have any contact with her. Seeing you two standing together and talking makes me uncomfortable, but I know that Brother Shaoyu, you are doing this for the greater good, for our future."

"So how could I be so ignorant?"

Seeing this, Gu Shaoyu no longer doubted her and began to feel guilty towards Qiao Yunbai.

She was so considerate, so caring about him and taking the overall situation into consideration, but he still doubted her and misunderstood her.

He deserves to die.

Holding Qiao Yunbai, who was crying bitterly, Gu Shaoyu felt distressed.

"Don't cry, Yun'er, it's my fault. You love me so much, how could I doubt you?"

"Don't blame yourself. Since this method doesn't work, let's try another one."

The two were thinking of taking a break to avoid letting Xu Jinyi discover anything.

After returning to the capital, the two sat in the carriage, listening to what passers-by said, and expressions of surprise and doubt appeared on their faces.

"Didn't you say Xu Jinyi didn't notice anything wrong? Why did they send all your things back to the Qiao family?"

Qiao Yunbai stood there in shock, not knowing what was happening.

Everything was normal before leaving today, but Xu Jinyi suddenly changed her mind and is now chasing her away.

All this was telling her that perhaps Xu Jinyi knew something.

But how is this possible?

"Brother Shaoyu, don't worry. I'll go to the Xu family and see what's going on."

Xu Jinyi sat in front of the dressing mirror, staring at her stunningly beautiful self in a trance.

Now, she has avoided the beginning of the original owner's tragic fate in her previous life.

Next, the two can be said to be nothing to be feared.

After all, she is not as love-brained as the original owner.

But protecting oneself is not enough, the main purpose is to take revenge on the two people.
