Before Gu Qianluo's slap could land, Lin Ruoyan was startled and quickly lifted her skirt, delicately bumping into Chen Jinheng's chest.
Chen Jinheng was taken aback, his gaze fixed on Gu Qianluo not far away. He saw her eyes narrow slightly, and she coldly turned her head away from him.
Chen Jinheng frowned, grabbed Lin Ruoyan's arm with both hands and pushed her away from him, then gave Gu Qianlu a cold smile.
Gu Qianlu met his smile, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch, a hint of doubt rising in her heart.
What does this man mean?
Seeing that Chen Jinheng wasn't looking at her, Lin Ruoyan was unwilling. While wiping away her tears, she swayed her body, tugged at the man's clothes, and softly pleaded,
"Jinheng, please stop punishing Brother An. It hurts me to see him being punished and his knees injured."
Chen Jinheng's eyes turned cold, and he asked in a deep voice, "Ruoyan, has your old injury flared up again?"
Lin Ruoyan said softly, "Jinheng, I don't know, my heart just hurts so much!"
After saying this, Chen Jinheng sighed deeply, shook his head helplessly, and said slowly,
"Alright! Alright! Ange'er has been punished. I will order Hanying to bring him back right away!"
Furthermore, punishing An Ge was not Qianluo's intention, but mine.
Lin Ruoyan was startled, and a sense of disappointment arose in her heart.
She never expected that this woman, whom Chen Jinheng had only known for two days, would make him take the initiative to explain for her.
Hmph! But the fact that Chen Jinheng was able to soften his heart and release Brother An for her sake proves that she holds an extremely important place in this man's heart.
Thinking of this, she deliberately glared at Gu Qianluo and revealed a smug smile.
Gu Qianlu followed behind Zhang Shi and slowly approached the two.
Seeing her approach, Chen Jinheng's eyes darkened slightly, and he asked Gu Qianluo seriously.
"Madam! What exactly is going on?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qianlu raised an eyebrow, glanced at Lin Ruoyan beside Chen Jinheng, and coldly replied,
"My husband should ask your Miss Lin about this matter."
Otherwise, I'll be branded a villain.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jinheng's eyes suddenly darkened, and he turned to look at Lin Ruoyan.
"Ruoyan, tell me, who just said that my wife is not worthy to be the mistress of the house?"
Lin Ruoyan knew Chen Jinheng's habits; after all his questioning, he was determined to get to the bottom of things today.
Suddenly, her eyes sparkled, a sly smile playing on her lips. She hooked her wrist around Gu Qianluo's arm, feigning sadness, and said...
"Qianluo, it's all my fault."
Sister Qianluo?!
Why did this woman's style suddenly change?
Just a moment ago, he was glaring at her, but now he's forcing a smile at her!
Haha, she's such a good actress!
Gu Qianlu raised her ears slightly, listening carefully to what Lin Ruoyan was about to say.
"I misunderstood you! Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me, okay?"
Seeing that Gu Qianluo didn't speak, Zhang Shi suddenly spoke up to persuade her as well.
"Yes, second sister-in-law, Miss Lin has already apologized to you, so please don't take it too seriously!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qianluo clenched her fists tightly, her mind filled with a myriad of thoughts.
If she were to back down today, people would think she is weak and easily bullied.
In the future, these two will definitely take advantage of her and bully her even more.
Seeing that Gu Qianluo still refused to forgive her, Lin Ruoyan actually knelt down.
“Sister Qianluo, if you still refuse to forgive me, I will kneel until you get up.”
Chen Jinheng, standing to the side, showed a hint of anger in his eyes, but his voice remained cold as he spoke.
"Madam, since Ruoyan has already admitted her mistake, please forgive her!"
"Since my husband has said so, if I don't forgive Miss Lin, wouldn't I become a wicked woman in her eyes?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Qianluo narrowed her eyes and quickly pulled Lin Ruoyan to her feet.
"Miss Lin, you are a mother of two children."
Your words and actions serve as a role model for our child, and as his legal mother, I have a responsibility to educate him.
Upon hearing this, Chen Jinheng couldn't help but smile slightly and said,
"Yes! Ruoyan, you can't be so spoiled anymore! The children are all learning from you!"
Don't you often tell me that your two children are very naughty and make you very tired?
Now that Qianluo has married into the family, please bring them to Luoying Palace starting tomorrow!
Lin Ruoyan was naturally unwilling; the two children were her gamble!
"Jinheng, the child is still too young and has a lot of playfulness."
Sister Qianluo has just entered the manor and there are still many things she needs to learn.
I think it would be better to wait until Qianluo is more familiar with the Marquis's residence before bringing the children over!
Gu Qianluo had just married into the Marquis's mansion, so she naturally didn't want to be the children's nanny. However, she could let the two children come over to play often to strengthen their bond with her.
With her thoughts settled, Gu Qianluo flicked the jade fan in her hand, a faint smile appearing on her face, and made a suggestion to the three of them.
"How about this, on the first and fifteenth of each month, let the children come and fast and bathe with me!"
The first and fifteenth of the lunar month?
That was a day Chen Jinheng had promised to take the children out to play!
Lin Ruoyan's heart sank. She glanced at Gu Qianluo and suddenly realized that she had been tricked by her.
He closed his eyes, his body went limp, and he suddenly fainted.
Gu Qianluo narrowed her eyes slightly, and Zhang Shi exclaimed in surprise.
"Good heavens! Miss Lin has suddenly fainted! Someone come quick! Someone come quick!"
Chen Jinheng reacted quickly, catching the person in his arms, and gave instructions to the steward, Uncle Yin.
"Quickly! Take the invitation from the Marquis's residence to the Imperial Hospital and ask a doctor to come and examine Miss Lin."
