This hearty laugh spread across the Monarchâs Manor, reaching into the ears of all those who occupied it and those who hadnât quite left the estate yet.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
â¦â¦
Gu Ya tightly pinched her fists at that voice due to the stinging in the heart. Sheâs been with Heavenly for many years, never has she seen him be so happy before.
âMissâ¦â Senior Gu Lao sounded worried after noticing the drop of tear forming on the ladyâs eye, âYou in fact donât need to worry about that baby girl, the monarch wonât touch her for at least a decade. Sheâs not a threat to youâ¦â
Gu Ya didnât feel any better from those consoling attempt, instead she heavily bit her pale lip and stared behind at the courtyard where the laughter continued to echo out.
Angrier in the face than the last since the senior could tell how pained the lady was: âBut who couldâve guessed the baby would be so good at attracting the opposite sex despite being so young. It really begs to wonder the sort of parent she has to be able to teach her such trickery.â
âGu Lao!â Gu Yaâs expression got serious and stern, âDonât mention such things again, remember that. The girl is only two years old, how do you expect her to know what sheâs doing? The reason sheâs getting so much attention is because Heavenly dotes on children, thatâs all, nothing more.â
âSo what if sheâs only two years old? Miss, although a baby is a blank white sheet of paper but that doesnât mean their parents are as innocent. In this world, there are plenty of parents who would incite their child to go after people of high stature. Itâs not impossible that the girl back inside is here under her parentâs instruction.â
Senior Gu Lao huffs a grunt, Milady is too simple minded, this child is obviously getting close to the monarch under someoneâs instruction.
Gu Ya did not add to that and kept quiet from there.
Even if she does not believe in a two-year-old child being capable of seduction and foxy ways, but the monarchâs love for a child still stung greatly.
âMissâ¦â the senior suddenly made a neck slicing gesture, âdo you want me to solve the problem?â
Instead of being elated, Gu Yaâs complexion instantly changed for the worse and lashed out with a scold: âGu Lao, no matter what I am not going to kill a child just because I feel insecure! What if Heavenly finds out? He will sure be very sad afterwardsâ¦â
She just wants him to be with herself, never did it cross her mind to hurt a child for that. Besides, what can a baby do? Gu Ya doesnât even consider Di Ling Yan as a rival.
Senior Gu Laoâs frown only deepened, Milady is too soft inside. If it were me, I wouldâve removed them right from the start if they posed even the slightest threat. However, itâs also the ladyâs character that she could stay beside the Monarchâs side for so long. If it were anyone else, they wouldâve long been swept out the door.
âGu Lao!â Gu Ya saw the old man didnât recede his murderous thoughts so she got even harsher in the voice: âI said I do not want to move against a baby girl, do you not understand? She is not my opponent! If you move against her and is discovered, I wonât be able to save you from the monarchâs wrath!â
The woman here followed the monarch for many years and helped him regain his strength, but that doesnât mean she could do whatever she wants.
No one knows the monarchâs temper better than her, and if she annoys him, he wonât hold back just because of their old relationship! By then, no pleading would save Gu Lao.
Hanging his head low as he complied in respectful tone: âMiss, I understandâ¦â
