Chapter 117 Pleasing
Seeing Xu Feng's reluctant expression, Luo Yu turned around and glared at him. The chilling feeling made Xu Feng pause, and he dared not say another word.
When Gu Shuyan heard the housekeeper say that someone from the Li family had arrived, her face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Gu Shuyan undoubtedly harbored hatred for the Li family.
However, what she hated wasn't their mistreatment of her, but rather that they had climbed to their current position by stepping on the corpses of the Gu family members. Taking advantage of the Gu family while secretly plotting against them—for this alone, Gu Shuyan could never forgive them.
And so, the gloomy Gu Shuyan followed the butler to the front yard.
Just as she was about to reach the garden, a sudden chill swept over her. Gu Shuyan tightened her clothes and couldn't help but look back.
"Miss, what are you looking at?"
When Mingyu saw Gu Shuyan turn around, she also turned around and looked behind her, but there was nothing behind them except for a garden full of flowers.
Gu Shuyan glanced suspiciously behind her before shaking her head and saying, "It's nothing, let's go!"
Although she said she was fine, Gu Shuyan's doubts remained. If she wasn't mistaken, there were indeed people over there just now.
The master and servants hurried towards the guest courtyard. After they disappeared from sight, Xu Feng pushed Luo Yu out through the side gate.
Miss Gu is indeed very perceptive, but it's not entirely his fault; it's all because his young master's aura is too powerful.
With these thoughts in mind, Xu Feng pushed Luo Yu toward the front yard without delay.
Meanwhile, in the front yard, the two powerful owners remained silent.
The Li couple, who already harbored a deep fear of the Marquis's mansion, found their legs, which had finally stopped shaking, gradually began to tremble again.
Just as the two were about to give up and kneel down again, the butler and Gu Shuyan finally appeared in the distance.
Upon seeing Gu Shuyan's familiar face, Madam Li rushed to greet her, and Li Daniu did the same.
In their eyes, Gu Shuyan's unpleasant face was far more appealing than enduring pressure from two strangers, especially those in a superior position.
Over the years, neither of them had ever felt that Gu Shuyan was so likable.
"Qing'er, you've finally arrived."
As Madam Li spoke, she smiled and reached out to take Gu Shuyan's hand, but Mingyu slapped it away first.
"Shrink back, don't let just any Tom, Dick, or Harry meddle in front of my young lady."
No one knew better than Mingyu what the Li family had done, and that's why Mingyu disliked them even more.
Seeing the two women's awkward expressions, Mingyue glanced at them disdainfully, then turned and respectfully helped Gu Shuyan walk towards the living room.
Gu Shuyan, on the contrary, showed no dissatisfaction with Mingyu's behavior; in fact, she even had a smile on her face.
"Mr. Li, Madam Li, please!"
The butler gestured for the two to enter, but his tone clearly carried a hint of disdain.
The butler had clearly seen the young lady's attitude towards the couple. Since even the young lady disliked them, he naturally didn't need to worry about offending them.
Besides, having been a butler for so many years, the butler believes he understands his masters' thoughts.
If the Li family were truly valued by their master, they wouldn't have waited until now to come knocking on his door.
The Li couple were oblivious to the butler's disrespect. When they saw Gu Shuyan, who had already entered the hall, they both showed surprise.
