Upon hearing her cousin mention these things, a hint of annoyance flashed in Gu Huarong’s eyes.
She had indeed considered making a move on Feng Yuanxi before, but that brat didn’t care about anything other than his toys and games. She hadn’t gained a single advantage from him.
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly widened her eyes and looked at the little boy who had just emerged from the carriage.
Although his face wasn’t the one she was familiar with, Gu Huarong had seen a portrait of Feng Yuanxi wearing a mask through her investigations.
She observed as he stretched out his little arms, letting Gu Qingluan put her hands under his armpits and lift him before gently setting him down on the ground.
The way he looked at Gu Qingluan was bright and joyful.
This was a treatment Gu Huarong had never experienced.
Not to mention her, even her aunt couldn’t enjoy such intimacy.
They said that Feng Yuanxi and the Royal Prince Lan not only looked alike but also had similar personalities. It was absolutely certain that they were blood-related.
Because of Feng Yuanxi’s cold att.i.tude towards everyone, Gu Huarong consoled herself after suffering setbacks.
But now, what did she see?
She saw this kid getting close and affectionate with the woman who had stolen her cousin! It was as if she were his real mother!
But how could that be?
Despite receiving the news that during the recent porridge distribution event at the Jun Residence, her cousin and Gu Qingluan openly acknowledged having a relationship five years ago and giving birth to Feng Yuanxi, she couldn’t bring herself to believe it, nor did she dare to.
If Gu Qingluan was indeed Feng Yuanxi’s biological mother, she might have lost any chance she had left!
“Huarong, are you okay? You don’t look too good,” Gu Zinan said with concern as he looked at her.
Gu Huarong pressed her red lips together and shook her head lightly, suppressing her panic.
Even if it were true that Gu Qingluan was Feng Yuanxi’s birth mother, so what?
She would make the other party see the difficulties and reconsider!
Watching as Gu Qingluan led the two boys into the auction house, a cold glint flashed in Gu Huarong’s eyes. She calmly put on her veil and said, “Let’s go.”
Gu Zinan jumped out of the carriage first, landed on the ground, and then turned to help her down.
The maids by her side came forward to a.s.sist her as well.
The group of them walked towards the entrance of the auction house.
The brother and sister had a dignified presence, attracting the attention of many people.
However, there were so many important and wealthy individuals who came here today that people just took a casual glance and didn’t pay too much attention. They casually commented, “The Guardian Princess has such great appeal. So many people have come because of her.”
Her companion laughed and said, “That’s right, the Guardian Princess is currently the most sought-after figure in Tianjing. Having the chance to make a connection with her might earn us her favor. Who would want to miss such an opportunity?”
Hearing these words, Gu Huarong’s face, hidden beneath her veil, changed instantly.
Yu Zinan was impatient and sneered contemptuously.
Both of them heard his disdainful laughter and their expressions changed slightly.
“What are you laughing at?” one of them immediately asked.
Yu Zinan raised an eyebrow defiantly and said, “All of you are like frogs in a well, how can you understand the vastness of the world?”
The two men’s faces darkened.
“Kid, where are you from? You seem like a complete stranger, not a native of Tianjing, right? Watch your tongue; you might stir up some trouble with your words!” Both of them were from prominent families in Tianjing, and they couldn’t tolerate such insults.
“This is just an Insignificant little place, yet you act like you’re so important.”
Yu Zinan sneered, his eyes filled with mockery nearly spilling over.
As natives of Tianjing, they had always carried a sense of superiority about their heritage. This was the first time someone had looked down on them so much, and their faces turned livid with anger.. “You brat, what did you say? Say it again if you dare!”
