He sized up Gu Jingchun.
This was the first time Gu Nansheng had met her.
He disliked his scheming younger sister very much, and thought that she would be timid and aggrieved when they met.
He even imagined her kneeling on the ground, begging for mercy in a crude manner.
Unexpectedly, she was so calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant, confronting him with every word without showing any weakness, which made him look at her with new respect.
He paused only for a moment, then continued:
"Don't try to argue your way out of this. Do you think Yun Jin would harm herself?"
It was at this moment that Gu Yunjin's weak voice came from inside the room.
“Brother Sheng, I fell down by accident. It has nothing to do with my sister. Please don’t blame her. If this damages our relationship, then it is Yun Jin’s fault.”
Hearing this, Gu Nansheng's tone relaxed.
"Yun Jin, don't worry, your second brother will definitely get justice for you."
"Brother Sheng!"
The person inside the room sounded a bit more urgent.
"Brother Sheng, please don't be impulsive. Just think of it as Yun Jin's sake... cough cough... cough... please... cough cough..."
Gu Nansheng looked nervous as she listened to Gu Yunjin's cough.
He glanced at Gu Jingchun.
"This time, Yun Jin is very generous and has let you off the hook. But if you have any more inappropriate thoughts in the future, I will not show you any mercy."
Gu Jingchun almost laughed.
If Gu Yunjin hadn't interrupted, Gu Nansheng would have discovered the truth very soon.
But Gu Nansheng seemed oblivious, and even muttered a couple of words under her breath after she finished speaking.
"As expected, people who grow up in the countryside have no manners. They even dared to call me by my given name."
Gu Jingchun looked at him as if he were an idiot.
"I am ill-mannered because my father and mother did not teach me. Are you questioning my father and mother now?"
"As for why I called you by your given name, it's because you're brainless."
Then, his tone shifted, and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes.
"Besides, this isn't something you can just let go of."
"You took my son away without cause first, and then you accused me of all sorts of baseless crimes. How do you intend to settle this?"
As she spoke, she directly ordered Lan Xin to arrest all the people around Gu Yunjin.
"Since you're unwilling to investigate, I'll help you find out the truth about this today."
Gu Nansheng was furious that Gu Jingchun dared to be so bold.
"Gu Jingchun, how dare you lay a hand on me? Guards!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several servants surrounded him, but Gu Jingchun glanced at them calmly.
Lan Xin grabbed one person with each hand, turned around, and delivered several flying kicks, leaving several servants lying on the ground unable to move.
Gu Nansheng was furious and wanted to take action herself, but Gu Jingchun spoke calmly.
"I advise you not to make a move. The people around me are not ordinary maids. It's better to wait until you find out the truth before you take action."
"What's the point of investigating things that are already set in stone?"
Gu Nansheng said this, but in the end he did not stop him. He coldly watched what tricks Gu Jingchun could still play.
Gu Yunjin, who was in the room, was not worried. After all, she had something on her servants, so she figured they wouldn't dare to say a word.
However, Lanxin has been by Gu Jingchun's side for many years and is no ordinary maid. Not only is she highly skilled in martial arts, but she also possesses unparalleled acupressure techniques.
Several servants fell into her hands, and at first they looked like they were ready to die.
But Lan Xin only touched them a few times, and they immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Their tongues flew out of their mouths, and they immediately told the whole story like beans spilling from a bamboo tube.
"The second young lady has been keeping an eye on what's happening in the eldest young lady's courtyard. Today, she heard that the young master went to play in the garden, so she went over there."
"I'm just a servant girl. I only followed the Second Miss's instructions to invite the Second Young Master to the garden. I don't know anything else!"
"I...I don't know either. I just followed orders and went to fetch the doctor before the Second Miss left."
...
Gu Yunjin, who was inside the room, was shocked!
What methods did this country girl use to get them to talk? I underestimated her!
Seeing that the situation was turning against her, she had to find a way to stop it.
Meanwhile, outside the door, Gu Nansheng's expression had changed.
After the servants finished speaking, only a thin little girl remained. She was one of Gu Yunjin's personal maids.
Seeing that her tongue was out of her control, and fearing she would say the wrong thing, she gritted her teeth and rammed herself into the pillar.
Blood splattered immediately, and he collapsed to the ground unconscious.
Gu Jingchun raised an eyebrow.
"He was a loyal and courageous man."
After speaking, he looked at Gu Nansheng again.
"Although this girl is tight-lipped, this is enough. Gu Yunjin deliberately got close to Xi'er, and she even asked you to witness her falling into the water. She also called a doctor in advance."
"What else could all of this be but a carefully planned scheme?"
Gu Nansheng was somewhat taken aback.
He glanced at the servant kneeling on the ground, then at Gu Jingchun, his shock barely concealed.
Just then, the tightly closed door opened a crack, revealing Gu Yunjin's pale and thin face.
She was dressed only in a white top, her long hair hanging down over her shoulders, the strands swaying gently with her movements, giving her the perfect image of a delicate, innocent flower.
Gu Jingchun clicked his tongue twice upon seeing this.
This little white flower is incredibly skilled; no wonder Gu Nansheng was bewitched by her.
