Gu Yundongâs expression changed and she moved her elbow backward.
âItâs me.â A familiar voice came from behind her, conveniently blocking her elbow.
Gu Yundong was slightly stunned. She turned around and saw Shao Qingyuanâs expressionless face. She was surprised. âWhy are you here?â
Shao Qingyuan saw that she did not realize that she was still in his arms, so he pretended not to know anything. He only lowered his voice and said softly, â1 came with Young Master Liu.â
âYoung Master Liu? The one whoâs chatting with Peng Zhongfei? You know him?â
âIâm not very familiar with him. Heâs the rich young master who bought our wild boar last time. Heâs also Liu Wei, who said that he was classmates with the county magistrateâs young master yesterday. He wants me to bring him into the mountains for a hundred taels of silver.â After a pause, Shao Qingyuan continued, âI heard that you came to the Peng Residence to look for Peng Zhongfei. Young Master Liu happened to be here, so I came to take a look.â
Gu Yundong blinked. âAre you here to help me?â
Shao Qingyuan was silent for a while. âI went into the mountains this morning and caught two pheasants. I want to eat salt-baked chicken tonight.â
Gu Yundong was speechless.
âYouâve worked hard enough for food.â
Shao Qingyuan nodded. âIâve never eaten it before. Itâs said to be very delicious.â
Poor child. Although Gu Yundong was also an orphan, she had eaten good food from kind people when she was young in the orphanage.
âHow do you plan to take back your things?â Shao Qingyuan looked at her pitiful gaze and his heart skipped a beat. He had the desire to change his excuse. He was worried that if this continued, it would backfire, so he hurriedly changed the topic.
When Gu Yundong heard his question, she suddenly realized that she still had important things to do. Only then did she realize that the two of them were so close. She immediately retreated and said.
âWhat else can I do? Of course, Iâll beat that Peng Zhongfei up and make him return the thing to me.â
Shao Qingyuan:ââ¦â
Gu Yundong saw that he wanted to say something but did not know where to start. She was amused. âHaha, you really believe me? Iâm not a fool.â
Besides, her main goal was not to get the blueprints back. Without these two, she could draw a better one.
However, once the house was built, Peng Zhongfei could still find someone to smash it.
Hitting someone⦠was a bad idea.
âLetâs be serious. Do me a favor. Not only will I make salt-baked chicken for you tonight, but Iâll also cook spicy chicken for you. How about that?â
Gu Yundong had a seductive look on her face.
Shao Qingyuan felt that these words sounded a little familiar. After thinking for a moment, he remembered that he had seduced Liu Wei like this before.
âHow is it? Are you going to help me? Donât worry, itâs just a small favor.â Gu Yundong used his fingers to create a small distance between them.
Shao Qingyuanâs voice became exceptionally low. âOkay.â
He would do anything to help.
Gu Yundong smiled and lowered her head to tell him his plan. âWhen 1 go out later and see Peng Zhongfei, you⦠do this, do this. Do you understand?â
âOkay.â
Gu Yundong patted his shoulder. âBe careful. If thereâs any danger, retreat immediately.â
âYeah.â
âSee you then.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gu Yundong carefully left the room. After walking for a while, she saw the maidservant who had led her looking for her.
Gu Yundong coughed lightly.. The maidservant suddenly turned her head and scolded her, âWhatâs wrong with you? Who asked you to walk around? Do you know what this place is? Can you bear the responsibility if you offend Madam and Miss?â
