Instigator

As Gu Yundong walked back, she could not help but think carefully.
Indeed, Shen Sitian was younger and more capable than her mother, and she did not have the temperament of a child like her mother.
However, Madam Yang was actually very good-looking. Her appearance could crush a large number of people. Coupled with the Gu familyâs current wealth, it was not strange for them to target her.
She recalled how Jiang Yongkang had helped Shen Sitian twice. Madam Yang⦠was also there.
Moreover, after his so-called scheme of saving the damsel in distress was exposed, he directly admitted that he had taken a fancy to Shen Sitian and agreed not to meet her.
However, although he could not see Shen Sitian, he did not say that he could not get close to Madam Yang.
Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes slightly. The moment she stepped through the door, she recalled Chen Jincaiâs expression.
Why didnât Chen Jincai say who instigated it?
Firstly, he did not dare to say it.
Secondly, he could not say it. He was defending the other party.
Who was worthy of his protection?
Gu Yundong suddenly thought of Madam Fang and her daughter. Yes, wasnât Jiang Yongkang living in Madam Fang and her daughterâs house now?
Chen Yulan married into the town, and Jiang Yongkang happened to be from the town.
Chen Jincai wanted to say something but hesitated. He refused to say who had designs on her family, and Madam Fang happened to be his second aunt.
Everything seemed to be right.
âYundong, where did you go so early in the morning?â
Gu Yundong was stunned. When she came back to her senses, she saw Aunt Ke standing in front of her.
She thought for a while and told her what happened just now. In the end, she asked, âWhen I wasnât around, did Jiang Yongkang meet my mother?â
Aunt Ke looked surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it made sense.
Her expression instantly became a little ugly. She had promised Yundong to take good care of her mother and younger siblings while she was away. In the end, people with ulterior motives kept approaching her, but she did not discover it in time.
No, she had discovered it, but she had gone in the wrong direction. She thought that Jiang Yongkangâs target was Shen Sitian.
âA few times, yes.â
Gu Yundong saw Aunt Keâs expression and knew that she was blaming herself. She hurriedly said, âActually, this is just my guess. Perhaps itâs not the case. Aunt, donât think too much. Itâs been hard on you these few days when I wasnât around.â
Aunt Ke glared at her and snorted before turning to leave.
Gu Yundong was helpless. She was still so proud.
She shook her head and walked towards her parentsâ room.
It was already so late. The two of them should be up, right?
They had indeed got up. The door was half open. Gu Yundong tilted her head slightly and looked inside.
She saw her mother sitting in front of the dressing table with a smile on her face. Her father stood behind her mother and combed her motherâs hair, his eyes doting and gentle.
Her mother held an eyebrow pencil in her hand and said happily, âYundong bought this for me, but I donât know how to draw. Itâs always very ugly. Aunt Ke helped me draw it and said that I look good.â
Gu Dajiang took the eyebrow pencil. âIâll draw it for you in the future.â He had never used an eyebrow pencil before. In the past, the Gu family wouldnât have afforded such a thing.
However, he was a scholar after all. It shouldnât be difficult for him to draw a few more timesâ¦
âAnd this rouge, it smells good too.â
Gu Dajiang leaned over. âYes, this color is good. It suits you. Apply it for me later.â
âOkay.â
Gu Yundong was speechless. Damn it, she was fed dog food so early in the morning.
âFather, let me tell you. Youâre making me think of my Brother Shao. Donât regret it.â
However, Gu Yundong was happy to see Gu Dajiang and Madam Yang like this.
Hmm?
An idea suddenly popped up in her mind. Perhaps it could confirm her guess.
