The sisters split into two groups and surrounded Yin Yueli.
Princess He Nan walked directly to the exit leading to the Peng residence, worried that the man might run back.
Yin Yueli didn't move when she saw the aggressive Gu sisters; she remained seated in the pavilion.
She wasn't afraid. The people around her were all from the government offices, setting up for the Mid-Autumn Festival moon-viewing activities. What could the Gu sisters do to her?
Besides, she didn't do anything.
As soon as the Gu sisters arrived, they filled all the benches along both sides of the pavilion.
Yin Yueli's maid felt completely overwhelmed. The daughter of the prefect was really not someone to mess with. Their young lady hadn't provoked them recently, so why did she seem like she wanted to eat them alive?
Gu Xin didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "Yin Yueli, you've been staring at me and Sisi a lot lately, what do you mean by that?"
Yin Yueli's large eyes were filled with surprise: "What do you mean by that, Miss Gu? I was just enjoying the scenery."
Gu Xin frowned: "What tricks are you trying to pull? Find out where Sisi and I are, and then do something bad?"
Yin Yueli looked wronged and said self-deprecatingly, "What bad things could I possibly do to Miss Gu San and Miss Gu Wu? I'm powerless, while Miss Gu San and Miss Gu Wu are more skilled than the yamen runners. What bad things do you think I could do?"
Gu Nian observed Yin Yueli from the side. Her words didn't seem fake. Gu Nian couldn't quite understand Yin Yueli anymore.
Gu Xin: "That's true. But I don't like people staring at me, and don't tell me not to go out or anything like that. I don't like you, I hate you, and I feel uncomfortable when you stare at me. So, don't stare at me anymore, or I have plenty of ways to keep you from leaving the house!"
Yin Yueli smiled bitterly: "Since Miss Gu doesn't like me looking at you, then I won't look at you anymore. I'm not in good health and need to go out for walks every day to keep fit. Since Miss Gu is so domineering in forbidding me from going out, then I'll just stay in the mansion and not go out. Kuncheng is your Gu family's, and when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. I can't afford to offend them, so I'll just stay away."
Gu Xin laughed: "Yes, I'm domineering! You'd better not go out, okay!"
Yin Yueli stood up and bowed, saying, "Then Yueli will take her leave now. Please enjoy yourselves, ladies. Farewell!"
After saying that, she took her maid and went home.
Gu Xin felt like she had punched a cotton ball, yet a sense of unease welled up inside her.
"Miss!" Yin Yueli's maid suddenly exclaimed.
Gu Xin looked over and saw that it was Yin Yueli who had fallen, and she had fallen on flat ground.
Gu Nian was certain that this woman definitely wanted to harm Xin Xin. Usually, people who had malicious intentions towards Xin Xin would get hurt for no reason.
Whenever Li Shan dealt with the sisters, she mainly targeted Xin Xin, and she always ended up getting hurt.
Gu Nian recalled the various things Gu Xin had encountered. She realized that anyone who caused Gu Xin real harm would be hurt more severely. Anyone who had thoughts of their own would basically fall, hit a wall, or encounter something unpleasant.
In other words, Yin Yueli has ideas, but hasn't put them into action yet?
Gu Nian sat down next to Gu Xin and patted her: "Don't be upset. Be careful when you go out in the future, and take Bai Er with you too. You can't be too careful. People like her are the most troublesome."
Gu Xin nodded: "I know, sister. Ugh, so annoying! I can't just beat her up and throw her out of Kuncheng. It's so annoying. Being stared at by her makes me inexplicably irritable."
