Hence, Madam Dai quickly asked the maidservant to look for Dai Wenhuo. âWhat a coincidence. Wenhuo happened to be at home today.â
Today was the day that the bandits were going to be executed. There was indeed news that there might be accomplices coming to rescue the prisons, so Dai Wenhuo secretly deployed people to keep an eye on the few people who were to be executed.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Unexpectedly, there was nothing unusual. The bandits did not come. Dai Wenhuo waited for the bandits to be beheaded before returning home.
Just as he finished eating and changed his clothes, he heard his mother call him over.
Dai Wenhuo quickly packed up and went to pay his respects to his mother. Then, he saw Gu Yundong standing there.
He was stunned for a while before Madam Dai said, âCome quickly. Yundong is looking for you. She has something important to discuss.â
As she spoke, Madam Dai left, leaving Dai Wenhuo and Dai Zhong behind.
Dai Zhong nodded. âMiss Gu.â
Gu Yundong nodded at him and walked to Dai Wenhuo. âI want to ask you for a favor.â
Dai Wenhuo dug his ears. âWho did you say you were asking for help?â
This guyâ¦
He must have hated her for not sharing the porridge with him when they were deep in the mountains. What a petty man.
âPlease, Dai Wenhuo.â
Forget it, she was a magnanimous person. She would let him be smug for two days.
Dai Wenhuo finally knew that this was a private matter. Since it was not serious, he was not in a hurry. He raised his eyebrows and asked again, âI didnât hear you clearly. Say it again.â
Dai Zhong, who was standing behind him, shouted in his heart. âYoung Master, whereâs your grace? Do you not want that brother of yours, Young Master Shao? Why are you making things difficult for Miss Gu like this? Moreover, Miss Gu will definitely take revenge in the future. It wonât do you any good to act rashly.â
Gu Yundong secretly took a deep breath and put on a fake smile. âItâs fine if you didnât hear me clearly. If your house wasnât close, I wouldnât have come to look for you. But it seems that I found the wrong person. After all, youâre deaf. Iâm afraid you canât help much. Goodbye.â
Her first choice was the steward of the Nie residence, alright? Zhou Dafu wanted to cozy up to the Nie residence, and it was said that he had treated the steward to several meals. However, the Nie residence was far away. Furthermore, she was not as familiar with the steward as she was with Dai Wenhuo.
Unexpectedly, Dai Wenhuo was nothing.
She turned around and was about to leave when Dai Wenhuo suddenly stood up from his chair. âWait.â
He took two steps forward and stood in front of Gu Yundong. âForget it. For Shao Qingyuanâs sake, just tell me what it is. Iâll help you. I donât want him to fight me to the death if you run to him and cry.â
He didnât say that he wouldnât help. This woman really didnât have any patience.
He wasnât such an ungrateful person. Last time, it was her and Shao Qingyuan who brought him into the mountains and gave him such a big clue.
Gu Yundong snorted coldly. She wanted to put on airs and let him know that there was a price to pay for his foul mouth.
However, she couldnât wait any longer. Who knew if Gu Qiuyue would find out about her eldest auntâs absence and settle the score with her eldest uncle?
Thus, Gu Yundong did not delay any further and briefly explained the matter.
Dai Wenhuo frowned when he heard that. After a while, he nodded and said, âAlright, letâs go to the Zhou residence.â
âFind me a set of servantâs clothes. Iâll go with you. Zhou Dafu knows me. Iâll dress up.â
Dai Wenhuo nodded and got someone to bring her a new set of clothes. Then, he got Dai Zhong to prepare the carriage.
