"Sorry, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first!" Ren Yanran suddenly stood up and hurriedly left the Xiao family.
Before Mrs. Gu could react, Ren Yanran disappeared.
Coincidentally, not long after Ren Yanran left, Gu Yunxiao arrived at the Xiao family's house. Xiao Ling'er was in tears; Ren Yanran had thrown all her messes onto her.
When Gu Yunting arrived, the scene in the house was—
Gu Jingxuan sat obediently aside, looking at Xiao Ling'er with sparkling eyes.
Mu Xiya sat next to Xiao Ling'er and looked at Gu Jingxuan with sparkling eyes.
Gu Yunxiao and He Yunfan sat aside and drank tea leisurely, and their eyes would look at Xiao Ling'er from time to time.
Both of their eyes were filled with curiosity and exploration, and there was a hint of incomprehensible jealousy in He Yunfan's eyes.
As for Mrs. Gu, she secretly glanced at Gu Yunxiao and He Yunfan with a subtle look. It was they who delayed her communication with Miss Ling'er.
Originally, Mrs. Gu wanted to find out about Ren Yanran and Hanhan, and also wanted to find out about her youngest son Ting'er and Miss Ling'er.
She noticed it last time. Ting'er was different in front of Miss Ling'er. He became popular and no longer like before. Nothing could shake his mood.
In front of Miss Ling'er, he would be afraid and nervous, but he would also patiently explain things to Miss Ling'er, which had never happened to Ting'er before.
There is also the matter of Miss Yanran and Hanhan. For some reason, she felt extremely close to Hanhan as soon as she saw her, and couldn't help but want to get closer to her.
At this moment, Mrs. Gu looked at the way He Yunfan looked at Miss Ling'er and felt a little unhappy.
"Xiao'er, Young Master He, why did you two come to Misty Village?" Mrs. Gu asked, looking at the two of them.
"Mother, I heard that you and Xuanxuan came to Misty Village, so I came to pick you up." Gu Yunxiao explained gently.
"Yes, Aunt Gu, I am here with Brother Yunxiao to pick you and Xuanxuan up." He Yunfan also started to explain.
"I brought so many guards with me, there's no need for you to come and pick me up. Go back, you have your own things to do." Mrs. Gu called them away.
Gu Yunxiao noticed his mother's displeasure and stood up tactfully, "Okay, let's go back first."
"No, Brother Xiao, have you forgotten what happened in the county government office yesterday? Aunt Gu and Xuanxuan may not be safe even with the secret guards."
He Yunfan turned to Xiao Ling'er and asked, "Miss Ling'er, have you heard? Last night, over 200 prisoners were tortured to death in the county jail overnight.
Coincidentally, these two hundred people were all thieves who came to Misty Mountain to rob the night before. Tell me, who on earth had the ability to break into the prison at night and torture them to death?"
He Yunfan's words made Mrs. Gu and Gu Yunxiao frown. Anyone who was not stupid could hear that his words were too testing.
Xiao Ling'er is not stupid, but there is no change on her face, and she still has a faint smile on her face.
This Mr. He is not very tall, but he has a handsome appearance, fair and smooth skin, what a handsome young man.
What puzzled Xiao Ling'er was that since the moment he saw her, his eyes had always revealed hidden jealousy and hostility towards her, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
"Sir, do you think a country girl like me would know what happened in the county government office?"
Xiao Ling'er had a light smile on her face, but her eyes were so sharp that He Yunfan's heart trembled.
"Sorry, I was abrupt.
However, Miss Ling'er, you'd better be careful. If anything happens to you, Aunt Gu will be worried. After all, you are Xuanxuan's savior."
