Gu Yuan thought about it, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, then I will stay in your Gu family for a while. After all, my priority now is to find a stable environment to settle down and then practice well. I got so many spiritual medicines from the Mu family this time, which are enough for me to practice for a long time, and they are also enough for me to consume. I just want to take advantage of this opportunity to increase my strength and see if I can break through to the Spirit Master realm as soon as possible. That way, at least I can feel at ease. Anyway, I can live in a place outside or stay with you. It should be safer and freer here, so I will stay in your Gu family for the next few days."
Gu Ting smiled and said, "Why are you saying all this? I've noticed that you've always been so polite to me. I don't know what you're being polite about. You've helped me so much, and I've never been so polite to you. Instead, you've always been so polite to me, making me feel like you're always keeping a distance from me. What's the matter? Could it be that I, Gu Ting, won't be your friend? You've always been so polite to me. It's fine if friends are polite to each other, but you've actually been so polite to me all this time. Could it be that you don't consider me your friend, Gu Yuan, so you've always been so polite to me and kept a certain distance?"
Gu Ting looked at Gu Yuan with an unhappy expression and asked.
Gu Yuan hurriedly shook his head and said with a wry smile, "No, it's just a personal habit. I feel embarrassed myself, and I haven't helped you much. I just helped you kill the golden-eyed tiger in the oasis. Besides that, what else have I helped you with? But you are different. From the beginning until now, you have helped me many times, especially this time when you spoke on my side in the Mu family. After all, you are the daughter-in-law of the Mu family. But now you come with me to the Mu family and speak on my behalf. If they knew about it, it would have a bad impact on you, so I have always been more apologetic."
Gu Ting waved her hand and said nonchalantly, "Why are you saying all this? The engagement between the Mu and Gu families is a matter of engagement. You are my friend, and I only help the right side, not the relatives. What's more, I personally don't recognize that engagement. As for the daughter-in-law of the Mu family, it's the Gu family's business if the Gu family recognizes it. Let us find someone to send their daughter-in-law over. I am not their daughter-in-law. That is the Gu family's business, not mine, Gu Ting's."
Gu Yuan smiled helplessly and said, "Well, since you said so, I won't be polite to you in the future."
The two were talking when a servant ran over and said something in Gu Ting's ear. Then Gu Ting's face changed slightly and she waved her hand to let the servant leave.
Gu Yuan looked at Gu Ting and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen? You don't look too good."
Gu Ting shook her head, hiding the emotions on her face, and said to Gu Yuan, "Gu Yuan, please sit here for a while. I have something to see my father about now. I will settle you down after I come back from my father's place."
Gu Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead. Don't worry about me. I can sit here alone for a while. Or just observe the scenery here. Just go about your own business and don't worry about me."
Gu Ting nodded and said with a smile: "Then do you want me to find a maid to accompany you to wander around the Gu family?"
Gu Yuan hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I'm not used to having anyone accompany me. Just go ahead and don't worry about me. I'll just walk around your area casually."
Gu Ting nodded and said, "Then I'll go first. You can look around here at your leisure."
After saying that, Gu Ting left in a hurry.
Looking at Gu Ting's hurried figure, Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows. It seemed that something was about to happen. If it was not as he expected, the things happening at the Mu family must have been heard by the Gu family. So now Gu Ting's father, the patriarch of the Gu family, hurriedly summoned her, and it must be about this matter.
I have to say that Gu Yuan’s guess was completely correct.
In the main hall of the Gu family, a middle-aged man with full energy sat on the main seat with a face full of anger.
Below the main seat was Gu Ting who had just arrived.
"Father, is there anything I can help you with?"
The middle-aged man looked at Gu Ting in the audience and shouted, "Do you know what you are doing?"
Gu Ting pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What happened to Father that made him so angry? Did I do something to make you unhappy? You can tell me! I can change."
The middle-aged man's face became even angrier as he listened to Gu Ting's words.
"What did you do to make me unhappy? Don't you know it? You are the daughter of my Gu family, and you are engaged to Mu Tianxing of the Mu family. You will belong to the Mu family in the future. What on earth have you done for me? Huh? You actually brought a man to the door of the Mu family and made a scene, and even brought that man with you to hurt Mu Tianxing! What on earth do you want to do? Are you trying to piss me off to death? You have brought shame to my Gu family!"
Gu Ting lowered her head, curled her lips, and murmured, "I knew it was this matter!"
She raised her head and said, "What's the big deal? I'm a person who supports justice, not relatives! Besides, it was the engagement between you and the Mu family, not me. Why should I bear the consequences?"
"presumptuous."
The head of the Gu family was furious, his face flushed red with anger at Gu Ting. He walked down the stage and raised his hand to hit her. Gu Ting raised her head and looked up at the head of the Gu family, saying, "What? Are you going to hit me again? Do you dare to hit me now?"
The head of the Gu family was so angry that he swung his arms and refused to fight. Gu Tingting just said, "Do you know what you are doing? What you are doing will only worsen the relationship between our Gu family and the Mu family. The Mu family is no longer the Mu family of the past. The current Mu family has gradually become stronger and even wants to surpass the Gu family. I asked you to marry into the Mu family for your own good. Even if our Gu family declines in the future, you can still have a bright future by joining the Mu family. At least you can be guaranteed to be safe. According to the current development trend of the Mu family, they can be said to be in their heyday. Unlike our Gu family, our Gu family can now be said to be like an old man, slowly declining. Although our Gu family still looks strong on the outside, I know the real situation better than you!"
