As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Susu was glared at by her father and looked away, unconsciously moving her body away from him.
Prefect Wang nodded, smiling obsequiously.
"I have already sent people to make preparations."
Qiu Yan...who is hungry?
She glanced at Gu Qian and saw that he was smiling. Instead of refuting her, he took her hand in his.
Qiu Yan stopped talking and carefully examined Lord Wang in front of her.
He was of average build, not very tall, and not much older than Gu Qian.
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Juan also carried Gu Xiaoran off the carriage.
Prefect Wang thought to himself, "Indeed, he's dragging his family along."
Qin Susu looked at Gu Qian's tacit action, stuck out her tongue, and said to Gu Xiaoran:
"Little one, are you hungry too?"
Gu Xiaoran: "I'm not hungry at all. I just ate two roasted sweet potatoes this morning."
Qin Susu was annoyed and flicked Gu Xiaoran's forehead with her finger, but unfortunately, Gu Xiaoran pushed her away with her small hand.
"Hmph, not giving me any face at all."
Qin Susu forcibly pulled Gu Xiaoran's small hand and whispered in his ear, "Yu'er, your mother has a father. You should reluctantly come with me."
"No, I want to go with Aunt Zhu." Gu Xiaoran said, then looked at Zhu Juan and tried to pull her hand away, but she couldn't. Her little face was full of disgust.
Looking again, I saw that my mother and father had already entered the mansion with Prefect Wang.
He hurriedly chased after her, but one of her small hands was still tightly held by Qin Susu, and he couldn't shake it off no matter what he did.
Zhu Juan stood close to Gu Xiaoran and whispered a reminder, "Young mistress, once we arrive at Lord Wang's residence, we must behave ourselves and not wander off."
"Mmm." Gu Xiaoran nodded her little head up and down. "Don't worry, Aunt Zhu, Xiaoran will be good."
"Little one, is your name Xiao Ran or Xiao Yu?" This question has been bothering Qin Susu for many days.
Gu Xiaoran turned her head away without answering, but Qin Susu grabbed her ear and demanded, "Are you going to tell me or not?"
Gu Xiaoran tugged at her ear in annoyance, but it hurt even more.
"Qin Susu, you bad woman, all you do is bully me!" Gu Xiaoran said fiercely, biting Qin Susu's wrist.
Qin Susu cried out in pain, and when she looked again, Gu Xiaoran was already far away from her.
She quickly gave chase.
"stop!"
Behind her, Zhu Juan looked utterly helpless.
Soon, Qiu Yan and Gu Qian were led by Prefect Wang to a superior guest room.
Inside the room, Qiu Yan asked Gu Qian:
"How much longer until we get home?"
"If you don't stay overnight, you can get home by tomorrow evening."
Qiu Yan estimated the marching distance, "We're almost there."
Soon, Prefect Wang brought in the food.
"General, Madam, please." After saying this, he didn't forget to look around.
"General, where are your children?"
Gu Qian, "He," he asked Qiu Yan again, "Yan Yan, where did Xiao Ran go?"
"Where are you going?" Qiu Yan hurriedly looked around. "He should be with Zhu Juan."
Suddenly, with a whoosh, the door was pushed open, revealing Qin Susu's embarrassed face with an awkward smile.
Upon looking inside, she shook her head.
"General, Xiaoyan, please continue eating."
"Stop!" Qiu Yan called out to her, "Where's Xiao Ran?"
"Uh..." Qin Susu didn't reply, she had already rushed far away.
Qiu Yan... She turned to look at Gu Qian: "Xiao Ran has Xuan Ming and Xuan Ying with her, she'll be fine."
That little brat, he's always causing her trouble.
