Many daughters of noble families, such as the Prime Minister's daughter Zhou Ruyan, had never used Gu's face cream, but they had bought a few bottles. Now, after this incident, they had thrown these creams aside.
The women who had used it were terrified, fearing that one day they would become like that.
Gu Mansion
The head of the Gu family and several managers gathered together, and Gu Pianran sat in the first seat under the main seat.
"Now that this has happened, do you have any plan to deal with it?" the head of the family asked.
One of them spoke up, "This incident is so serious, there must be someone causing trouble. The government has already closed down all our workshops and shops. Our best strategy now is to distance ourselves from any involvement and find someone else to smooth things over."
Ever since this incident broke out, Gu Pianran couldn't sleep all day. No one knew what the cream was, but she knew it very well.
Now things broke out suddenly, without any warning, catching her off guard.
She had clearly experimented with it, and those people had no side effects after using it, so why did it turn out like this? The maids who had been used in the experiment were still fine.
The people below had already started talking, while Gu Pianran was completely lost in his own thoughts.
"Pianran, what do you think we should do?" Although the head of the Gu family is the head of the family, all the business is handed over to Gu Pianran.
If Gu Pianran were a man, I'm afraid the position of head of the family would have fallen on him long ago.
Seeing that she had no reaction at all, Patriarch Gu called out again, "Pianran."
Gu Pianran finally came to her senses and said, "I'll find a way to deal with it."
Gu Qing, who was in charge of the Great Zhou Dynasty's industries far away in the Great Zhou Dynasty, was arrested by the people in the yamen as soon as the incident happened.
When Gu Pianran received the news, she was thinking about how to deal with it. After seeing him being arrested, her heart sank.
This is the only thing we can do now.
A hint of cruelty flashed across Gu Pianran's eyes.
"Miss, the Fourth Prince is here..." Dongmei said.
"Tell him to go to the front hall. I'll be right there."
Fortunately, the person investigating this time is the Fourth Prince, so she still has room for maneuver and is not doomed.
Gu Pianran put a lot of white powder on her face and painted a light blue-black eyebrow powder under her eyes. She looked extremely haggard.
The Fourth Prince felt heartbroken when he saw Gu Pianran’s pale and haggard face.
"How are you?" Gu Fanzhi wanted to go forward to support her, but he noticed that there was someone else beside him, so he stopped.
"I'm fine." Gu Pianran smiled weakly at him.
"Fourth Prince, you came here this time for the face cream, right? I will tell you whatever you want to know. I just hope that the government will clear our name as soon as possible." Gu Pianran said tiredly but firmly.
Gu Fanzhi felt heartbroken when he saw her become like this.
"I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and clear your Gu company's name. Don't worry, I will never believe that you sell poisonous substances. You are not that kind of person." Gu Fanzhi said firmly.
Gu Pianran looked at him with red eyes, moved. "Fanzhi, thank you. At this time, there are still people willing to believe that we are innocent."
Gu Fanzhi's heart melted at the look in her eyes. He could no longer control himself and grasped his hand. "Even if everyone in the world misunderstands you, I will never misunderstand you."
"Fanzhi, I..." Gu Pianran looked at him with tears in her eyes. Her touching appearance was really lovable.
