Chapter 251 - 251 Did You Bully My Xue"er?
251 Did You Bully My Xue’er?
There were only Rong Zhan, Rong Han, and Gong Lingyu in the hall. However, Gong Lingyu was like a mouse that had seen a cat. She sat on the seat furthest away from Rong Zhan. Her back was tense, and she looked very nervous.
“I just feel that this seat is more comfortable. Cousin, you don’t have to care about me. Just find a small room for me to live in. Once I’m cured, I’ll leave immediately,” Gong Lingyu said softly.
“Ji Yan, go and vacate the best courtyard for Yu’er,” Rong Zhan ordered.
Gong Lingyu looked at Rong Zhan with a flattering expression. She opened her mouth, but the words that she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
“What? You don’t like it? If you don’t like it, you can choose any room you like,” Rong Zhan asked.
Rong Zhan asked expressionlessly, scaring Gong Lingyu so much that she shrank her neck again.
‘I did not mean that! What should I do? Is my cousin angry again? Why does he keep a straight face?’
As expected, she should not have come!
Gong Lingyu shook her head crazily, quickly rejecting Rong Zhan’s kind offer. “No need, I think my cousin arranged it well, it’s very good…”
Seeing Gong Lingyu drinking tea nervously, Rong Zhan seemed to see through her. “Have you seen Gu Qingxue?”
At the mention of Gu Qingxue’s name, Gong Lingyu’s eyes immediately lit up. “I’ve seen her! Sister Gu is very gentle and very good.”
“I think so too, auntie. You like the fairy, don’t you?” Rong Han liked people praising Gu Qingxue the most. He immediately jumped down from his seat and ran to Gong Lingyu with his thick little legs.
“Fairy? This t.i.tle really suits Sister Gu.” Gong Lingyu smiled and picked up Rong Han, she touched his little face, “I knew Sister Gu was beautiful and kind-hearted, and her medical skills are also high. Look at our Han’er’s little face, it looks much ruddier than before.”
Seeing the two of them talking and laughing, Rong Zhan warned, “No one in the Gu family except Gu Qingxue knows our ident.i.ty, so you shouldn’t say too much.”
Hearing Rong Zhan’s words, Gong Lingyu immediately stopped smiling. Like a startled rabbit, she hummed softly.
Ji Yan stood at the side and watched silently, feeling very sympathetic toward Gong Lingyu.
Actually, it was not the sixth princess’ fault for being afraid. It was His Royal Highness’ fault for not even smiling when talking to people. The sixth princess was timid by nature, so it would be strange if she was not afraid!
However, Rong Zhan was not aware of this. Ji Yan and the others who were standing outside the door could only bow their heads in sympathy to Gong Lingyu.
He ordered his subordinates to arrange a place for Gong Lingyu. Rong Zhan saw that Rong Han was sticking to Gong Lingyu, so he let him go. He went to the next room alone and prepared to have lunch.
However, when Rong Zhan entered the hall, he was surprised to find that Nine was already cleaning up the dishes.
Nine glanced at Rong Zhan from the corner of his eyes and quickly retracted his gaze as if he did not see him.
On the other hand, Nanny Sheng looked surprised. “Why is Young Master here?”
“It’s time for lunch. I’m here for lunch,” Rong Zhan said as his gaze swept over the remaining half of the dishes on the table.
“Ah? Young Master hasn’t eaten yet? Just now when the Miss returned, she said that from this afternoon onwards, there was no need to prepare any more food for the Young Master, so we’ll eat first. If Young Master doesn’t mind, there is still some unfinished food here…” Nanny Sheng looked at Rong Zhan with some difficulty.
“Did you bully my Xue’er?” Madam Qi suddenly stood up and she stared at Rong Zhan as she asked.
Rong Zhan shook his head without even thinking twice.
