He took a small sip, and the two of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Shuling smiled and said, "How is it? It's delicious, isn't it! I'll go to the kitchen and make you some snacks. You can chat with Lanlan for a while."
Without waiting for Gu Huanian's reply, he called out to Wang Ma, "Wang Ma, come with me to the kitchen and help out."
Wang Ma hurriedly replied, "Yes, Madam."
Chen Shuling had just reached the kitchen door when she suddenly added, "Oh right, we're out of sugar."
Wang Ma looked puzzled. She had just bought the candy a couple of days ago, and there was still half a jar left yesterday morning. How could it be gone?
Just as I was about to speak, I saw Chen Shuling smiling and pulling Wang Ma towards the outside.
"Come with me to buy some sugar, otherwise we can't make these pastries."
Wang Ma wanted to say that she could go by herself, but seeing the madam's aunt-like smile and glancing at Young Master Gu and Murong Lan inside, she guessed that she wanted to bring the two together.
So he followed Chen Shuling out.
Seeing Gu Huanian finish his cup of tea, Murong Lan was incredibly excited.
After today, Hua Nian will belong to her. When her father told her this yesterday, she still couldn't believe it.
Unexpectedly, Chen Shuling would drug her own son for her sake, but she agreed without thinking, since her lifelong dream was to marry Hua Nian.
As time went by, Murong Lan grew anxious. Why hadn't Brother Huanian fainted yet?
Gu Huanian also picked up a cup of tea from the table and handed it to Murong Lan, saying, "There's another cup of tea here. It would be a waste not to drink it. You should drink it!"
Murong Lan took the tea and drank it, a smile playing on her lips. This was the first time her brother Huanian had spoken to her so gently.
But she soon realized something was wrong. After drinking the tea, she uncontrollably collapsed to the ground. The feeling of powerlessness terrified her, and she eventually fainted.
Gu Huanian threw the person directly onto Gu Aiguo and Chen Shuling's bed, then left the courtyard and went to the next room.
Lu Yunfei, who lived next door, was somewhat surprised to see him. Although the two lived close by, Gu Huanian rarely visited his home.
So he joked, "What strong wind blew you here today?"
At this moment, Lu Yunfei's younger brother walked out excitedly, holding several wriggling insects in one hand.
"Brother, look! I caught this by the wall. Watch me do this!"
After Lu Yunfei saw what was in his hand, he suddenly dodged backward.
No one knew how afraid he was of insects, especially those that wriggle like that; "You should move them away from here."
"Brother, here you go, you throw it, I don't know where to throw it?"
As he spoke, he walked towards Lu Yunfei, who quickly waved his hand, saying, "No, don't come any closer. Throw the bug away yourself, don't give it to me."
Gu Huanian laughed and said, "Alright, Xiaolong, stop fooling around. Take the bug and come with me."
He then led him to his house, to his father's room, and said, "Throw the bugs on the bed."
Xiao Long glanced at the bed, somewhat embarrassed; "But there's an older sister in the bed."
Gu Huanian looked at Xiaolong and said, "Sister likes to play with bugs, hurry up and throw it up."
He never imagined in his life that one day he would be lying to a child.
He himself found it unbelievable that he could do such a thing, but it was good to make Murong Lan give up on him completely, and he could only disgust her.
"But if I throw the bug on the bed, it will run away, and then my sister won't be able to play," Xiaolong said worriedly.
It's okay, just release it.
Lu Yunfei, who was following behind them, was dumbfounded by what he saw.
Good heavens, the person lying on this bed is the leader's granddaughter. Won't they be punished for doing this?
After throwing it away, Gu Huanian dragged the three of them back to the next room.
Chen Shujin figured it was about time, so she took Wang Ma and her good friend Madam Chen, whom she had met on the way, and returned home together.
As soon as they arrived at their doorstep, they heard Murong Lan scream loudly.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!..." The noise was so loud that even Lu Yunfei next door could hear it.
He looked at the composed Gu Huanian and asked, "Are you sure you won't get into trouble doing this?"
Gu Huanian glanced at him indifferently without saying a word.
Hearing the voice, Chen Shuling thought things had gone well, and she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.
"Oh dear! What happened? When I left, only Huanian and Lanlan were home. Could it be that there are only two of them...?"
Speak only half the story, leaving room for others to imagine.
Mrs. Chen, who had returned with her, said cryptically, "Could it be that these two were doing *that* kind of thing at home?"
Chen Shuling said apologetically, "It's all my fault. Hua Nian was young and impetuous. I shouldn't have left them alone at home."
These words inadvertently confirmed the existence of their relationship.
When Murong Lan woke up, she saw insects wriggling all over her body, which terrified her and made her scream.
I tried to get out of bed, but found my legs were weak and I couldn't move them.
What kind of medicine did Chen Shuling prepare? How could this have happened?
"Help! So many bugs! Help!"
Chen Shuling arrived at the room door very quickly, completely ignoring what Murong Lan was shouting.
She knocked on the door directly; "Lanlan, I'm coming in."
Then she pushed open the door, but there was no scene as she had imagined; Gu Huanian was not there.
"Why are you the only one here? Where's Hua Nian?" Chen Shuling asked with a disappointed look.
"I don't know, Auntie, please help me! I can't move my legs and there are so many bugs on the bed."
Chen Shuling rushed over and helped the person off the bed.
What's wrong with you?
"I don't know either. Brother Hua Nian gave me a cup of tea. As a result, I fainted. When I woke up, I was lying in this bed, covered in those disgusting bugs."
"According to you, there must be something wrong with the tea he gave you, otherwise why would you have fainted?" Madam Chen immediately grasped the key point.
Chen Shuling said, "Lanlan, don't worry. Since it was our Huanian who was in the wrong and did such a thing, I will definitely make him marry you."
"I won't marry her," Gu Huanian and the other two had been listening outside the door for a while, and immediately said when they heard her say that.
"You gave me that tea, so if there was any poison, it was you who put it in."
"But didn't you drink the cup I gave you?"
Gu Huanian said coldly, "I changed the tea at the beginning. Do you think I'm stupid for using two teapots to pour water?"
Mrs. Chen: How exciting! Although she enjoys gossip, is this really something she should listen to?
One is the regimental commander's wife, and the other is the commander's granddaughter. This is the first time I've seen two women, one of whom is even the mother, conspiring to drug their own son. You probably won't find another mother like this in the world! She certainly wouldn't do something like drugging her son.
