"If I die, there will be no one to treat your face. Besides, maybe I can treat your leg injury."
"Where is that gentleman now?" Duan Yu picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip. He was willing to go to Wanhua Tower mainly because of its location. It was in the urban area of Jiangcheng, and he felt that this place would hold the answers he sought. He wanted to know who he really was, and who was trying to kill him.
"The master usually doesn't come to the village in person. He will appear in a place called Wanhua Tower on the first and fifteenth day of every month." The twin sister flattered.
Wanhua Tower is the largest entertainment venue in Jiangcheng. Many dignitaries like to hang out here. Unlike ordinary flower markets, the women here are beautiful and skilled in art. They usually only sell their art and not their bodies.
After Gu Yunting changed his fate of tragic death, the plot of the story has changed. Gu Yufei was poisoned, which is a plot that does not exist in the novel.
"You are more familiar with the situation in Wanhua Tower, so you will lead the way. Before you set off, take this first." Duan Yu took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, which contained the poison he had taken with him when he was escaping.
"I am the only one who has the antidote to this medicine." Duan Yu's eyes swept across their faces coldly.
The two sisters looked at each other, took one out of the bottle and ate it.
Duan Yu didn't look strong, and even looked a bit gentle and weak like a scholar, but his eyes made them feel very scared, like a gentle knife, every blow was deadly.
Hearing Duan Yu's words, Gu Yufei felt a little relieved. She wasn't stupid enough to think that Duan Yu went to Wanhua Tower for her, but at least he wouldn't abandon her in this village. As long as she got to the city, she would have a chance to go home.
To show their loyalty, the twin sisters prepared their luggage early. The next day at dawn, the four of them set off quietly.
There happened to be two horses in the village.
Duan Yu preferred riding with Gu Yufei to riding with the sisters. They rode on the same horse, and Duan Yu rode so fast that Gu Yufei had to cling to his waist tightly.
The two sisters followed behind, and Gu Yufei could feel their envious gazes.
Gu Yufei looked helpless and just wanted to say to them: Can this blessing be given to you?
Duan Yu didn't think much about it and just treated Gu Yufei as a pendant.

Du Shuting was sulking here.
Fu Xiuqi hasn't seen her for many days.
He sent people to send her some precious jewelry and trinkets from time to time to comfort her, but her heart was still empty. She couldn't help but wonder if Fu Xiuqi had fallen in love with someone else? Or was he thinking about Gu Yufei's disappearance?
"Qingci, go to the Fu Mansion and ask where Xiuqi has been recently?" Du Shuting sat in front of the dressing table, absentmindedly comparing her hair with the pearl hairpins on the table.
"Yes, Miss, but doesn't Master Fu dislike us asking about him like this?" Qingci looked at the dark circles under the young lady's eyes, feeling distressed. She had followed Du Shuting since she was a child, and the two of them came from foreign countries together, and they had a deep relationship.
"But he hasn't seen me for many days. I want to know what he's been doing. Qingci, be careful and don't let him find out."
"Yes, Miss." Seeing that she insisted, Qingci said nothing more.

Fu Xiuqi was worried about Duan Yu's affairs.
