Chapter 329 - Qing Niang
Chapter 329: Qing Niang
Gu Chaoyan did not like it, but she just could not show it on her face. Instead, she just said calmly, “Thanks, Lord Ling, but you don’t have to do that. We can go there ourselves. Bye.”
Having said these words, she took hold of Li Yuanxiang’s hand and hurried off.
Seeing her leaving figure, Lord Ling could not help but smile. What kind of woman was that, trying to avoid him and showing no fear in front of him at all?
Gu Ruxue, on the other hand, was not pleased. How dare this bitch throw a temper in front of the Lord! She just went away after talking with him for a short while! Gu Ruxue said seriously, “Lord, my sister is so rude! She always does that in the mansion, but how dare she show that temper in front of you! Please don’t mind it, Lord!”
Although Gu Ruxue sounded as if she was begging mercy for Gu Ruxue, Gu Ruxue was just indicating that Gu Chaoyan was a rude woman.
Lord Ling stopped smiling at the moment. He threw a searching glance at Gu Ruxue and said coldly in the end, “I don’t mind.”
“Now you are at Saint College, go and study. I have got other business to do and I need to be off now. If you need anything, just ask someone to tell me,” Lord Ling said. Yet he did not scold Gu Ruxue after all. He grew up in the imperial court and he knew what tricks she was playing.
Gu Ruxue was so bad at hiding what she was up to. She was just a lady from a small family, so she was trying to establish her own status by using his identity. However, since she might be a reincarnation of Phoenix Girl, he would not care about those small stuff. A man who intended to achieve something great, should not care about these trivialities.
Gu Ruxue was a little bit displeased by how Gu Chaoyan behaved. After all, she failed to teach this girl a lesson according to her own plan, but what Lord Ling said to her pleased her instantly. Lord Ling was truly treating her well. She might just be a concubine, yet he still offered her a great deal of care. In the future, he was going to care about every bit of her life affairs. With Lord Ling as a supporter, she would not be looked down upon, and she would not be bullied at all.
When she became an adult and officially moved into the mansion, she believed that she could even replace Princess Consort as long as she had enough time. After all, Lord Ling adored her so deeply!
When that time came… everything would be different.
As she thought about these, Gu Ruxue showed a bright smile on her face, bowing to Lord Ling gracefully. Then she saw Lord Ling off.

On the other side, Gu Chaoyan already found Qing Niang.
It was very easy to find Qing Niang. After all, she was in charge of the accommodation of everyone at the Saint College.
The moment she saw Qing Niang, Gu Chaoyan took out a deck of money. “Qing Niang, please arrange a great room for both of us.”
Qing Niang threw a look at Gu Chaoyan and accepted the money without hesitation and nodded.
Then she turned to several strong women who helped Gu Chaoyan to drive away Liu Hanxiang. “Bring them to the yard on the western side.”
The women nodded. Then they helped to carry Li Yuanxiang and Sword One’s luggage, and said, “Come with us.”
The girls followed them.
Li Yuanxiang looked anxious. “Chaoyan, do you think it is okay to bribe people?”
“It is okay,” Gu Chaoyan answered resolutely, “Anyway…”
