Xia Chengnu looked shocked, and the guests looked at each other in bewilderment.
Didn't they say Xia Zhining was kicked out by Mr. Gu? It turns out the cooperation just didn't go through.
Everyone's eyes fell on the wolfhound that had always stuck close to Xia Zhining, and they suddenly realized what was going on.
Although Xia Zhining did not reach an agreement with Mr. Gu, she had Mr. Gu's life-saving wolfhound in her control.
Xia Zhining looked at Gu Huaiye in surprise. Did this guy take the wrong medicine today?
He actually took the initiative to help her out.
What puzzled her even more was that Gu Huaiye's attitude towards his grandfather was extremely distant, almost as if he were treating a stranger.
The service staff in the entire banquet hall immediately became respectful to Xia Zhining.
The thoughtful and meticulous service made her meal particularly enjoyable, and no one dared to disturb her.
After eating and drinking, Xia Zhining didn't want to stay in Songjian Manor any longer.
To express his apology, Shen Jiaer offered to send her back personally.
Xia Zhining quickly shook her head to decline his offer.
With Shen Jiaer's racing skills, she was afraid that she would vomit out the delicacies she had just eaten.
At the gate of Songjian Manor.
Xia Zhining tilted her head and asked Shen Jiaer: "Just now, Mr. Gu was unhappy and Gu Huaiye helped me out. Did you ask him to do that? Thank you."
But Shen Jiaer shook his head: “I was also surprised that Brother Gu showed up.”
"But then I understood why."
Xia Zhining was surprised: "So why did he help me?"
"So why is that?" Xia Zhining came closer curiously.
Shen Jiaer put away his usual playful smile and whispered, "Maybe it's because... he sees his own shadow in you."
Xia Zhining: "Ah?"
"Brother Gu has two younger half-brothers who are just like Xia Qingqing. They are very good at pretending and trying to please the old man and Brother Gu's mother."
Shen Jiaer said this and sighed: “And they are more cruel than Xia Qingqing.”
"During the two years that Brother Gu was a field doctor, they directly paid foreign mercenaries to kill him."
Xia Zhining was horrified when she heard this and couldn't imagine how Gu Huaiye survived.
“But Brother Gu has survived.” Shen Jiaer pulled the corner of his mouth, “Now, who dares to mess with him?”
After hearing this, Xia Zhining felt something in her heart. Gu Huaiye... didn't seem that bad?
Just as the two were talking, the car arranged by the housekeeper arrived.
A very spacious luxury nanny car.
Xia Zhining got in the car and it drove steadily down the mountain.
But the driver didn't drive for long.
Suddenly, "click——"
A pool of dark-colored bird droppings fell onto the front windshield of the car.
"Oh, this bird urinates and defecates everywhere, how disgusting!" The driver held his forehead with his hand.
The windshield was dirty and blocked his view, making it unsafe, so he had no choice but to stop the car.
The driver said to Xia Zhining with an apologetic look, "Miss Xia, could you please wait in the car for a while?"
"I'll go clean the windshield."
Xia Zhining nodded in understanding: "No, I'm not in a hurry, you go ahead."
Xia Zhining rolled down the car window and breathed in the fresh air in the mountains and forests.
However, at this moment, two little sparrows flapped their wings and landed on the side of the road.
They chirped and sounded anxious.
[Chirp! The wings are heavy, as if they were wet!]
[A heavy rainstorm is coming soon, find a place to hide quickly.]
Birds are very sensitive to changes in humidity and air pressure.
So they can know weather changes in advance.
What should I do? The soil at the bottom of the mountain is loose. What if heavy rain causes a landslide?
So where should we go? I wonder where Mommy flew to?
The voices of these two little sparrows are very tender and small, like young birds that have just learned to fly.
"Little sparrows, do you want to come over and hide from the rain?"
Xia Zhining leaned against the car window and waved to the two little birds.
The two little birds were so frightened that they forgot to run away.
