155 If One Wanted to Court Death, Even the Gods Can’t Stop Them
Lan Wen saw that the onlookers had indeed misunderstood it. She was so angry that he rushed forward to argue with them.
Seeing this, Gu Qingxue raised her hand to block in front of Lan Wen, “Why are you so angry over such a small matter?”
Lan Wen felt wronged for Gu Qingxue, “But Miss, they have gone too far!”
The carriage of the imperial duke’s manor was clearly here to pick up her Young Miss, yet these people insisted on sticking gold on their faces. They were truly shameless!
Gu Qingxue smiled disapprovingly. “Silly girl, do you really think that anyone can sit on the carriage from the imperial duke’s manor just because they want to?”
Although she did not have any internal energy, she had extraordinary acuity. She could clearly sense that there was a person with an extremely powerful aura in the carriage from the imperial duke’s manor.
This person’s cold aura made her feel a little cautious.
If she guessed correctly, the person sitting in this carriage was most likely the imperial duke.
The imperial duke must have come personally to see her.
Lan Wen calmed down after hearing this and then looked in the direction of the carriage expectantly.
Gu Chengbin had a smile on his face as he strode toward the carriage.
He did not have Gu Qingxue’s alertness, so he did not notice that there was someone else in the carriage.
He walked to the coachman with a smile and said in a voice that only he and the coachman could hear, “I’m the Third Young Master of the Gu family. I accompanied my eldest sister to treat the Madam’s illness.”
The coachman frowned when he heard this, and subconsciously wanted to stop Gu Chengbin’s suicidal move.
However, Gu Chengbin was afraid that he would be exposed, so he quickly grabbed the carriage, climbed up, and successfully got on the carriage. Then, he pulled open the curtain and got in.
When Gu Qingxue saw this scene, she almost could not hold back her laughter.
As expected, if a person wanted to commit suicide, even a god would not be able to stop him.
Gu Lingyue looked at Gu Qingxue proudly.
So what if Gu Qingxue was the one that the imperial duke’s manor wanted to receive? The limelight was stolen by her younger brother!
In this way, even if Gu Qingxue got on the carriage again, everyone would think that she was Gu Chengbin’s little sidekick.
Just as everyone thought as Gu Lingyue did, Gu Chengbin’s begging voice suddenly came from the carriage.
“No, you’ve misunderstood. I’m only here to help my sister. I, I’ll get off now!”
When the crowd heard this, they were puzzled when they saw Gu Chengbin being kicked out of the carriage with a pale face.
Gu Chengbin fell into the puddle beside the carriage. The black and cold snow water soaked his coat and clothes, making him look like a stray dog. He looked extremely miserable.
Gu Chengbin screamed and jumped out of the puddle. The cold wind blew, making his whole body tremble.
When the onlookers saw this scene, they were all surprised.
What was going on? Could it be that the carriage from the imperial duke’s manor was not here to pick up Gu Chengbin?
At this moment, Gu Qingxue walked out of the Gu family’s gate and got into the carriage under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
The carriage left, leaving behind the stunned crowd.
In the carriage, Gu Qingxue and Imperial Duke Zhan sat on the cushions on both sides of the carriage.
Gu Qingxue lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside. She said calmly, “This doesn’t seem to be the way to the imperial duke’s manor. I wonder where the imperial duke is taking me?”
“I have something to ask Eldest Miss Gu. Yesterday, I happened to see you entering and leaving the prince regent’s manor I wonder how Miss Gu got to know the prince regent?” Imperial Duke Zhan asked directly.
Gu Qingxue raised her eyebrows in surprise.
She did not realize that Imperial Duke Zhan was following behind her yesterday.
However, Imperial Duke Zhan was a little too straightforward, right? He actually did not plan to hide anything at all and asked her directly.
