279 Why Do You Think Sister Gu Wants To Be Alone With My Cousin?
“She was frightened and fell into the icy cold stream. She will definitely get ill.” Gu Lin let out a long breath. His eyes were filled with unconcealable joy.
“She deserved it. Who asked her to bully the fairy? Great, when she’s seriously ill, she won’t have the energy to trouble the fairy!” Rong Han said, he turned his head to look at Nine, who had already changed his clothes. “Uncle Nine, thank you for helping us.”
“You’re welcome. It’s just that what happened tonight was too risky. It’s better not to do it in the future,” Nine looked at the children and reminded them with a serious expression.
Hearing Nine’s words, the five children nodded obediently.
“It’s getting late. You guys go to bed first. I’ll go check on Miss Gu.” Nine recalled Gu Qingxue saying that he would be alone with Rong Zhan tonight, so he was a little concerned.
He did not know what they were doing, but they actually wanted to be alone.
He also did not know if they were done being alone at this hour.
The more curious he was, the more he wanted to go and take a look.
“Uncle Nine, don’t forget what you promised us. What happened just now is a little secret between us. You can’t tell mother.” Lingbao was afraid that Nine would spill the beans, so she reminded him worriedly.
A gentle look appeared in Nine’s eyes. After nodding, he turned around and left the room.
Nine quietly left the house. Just as he was about to return to the courtyard house, he suddenly felt a murderous aura coming from behind him.
Alarmed, Nine subconsciously dodged it. He watched as a pitch-black sleeve arrow shot out, brushing past his side and hitting the courtyard house’s door with a thud.
The sleeve arrow pierced through the wooden gate. If Nine had not dodged in time, the arrow would have pierced through his chest!
Nine turned his head to look behind him.
Under the moonlight, he could vaguely see a figure flash past in the opposite alley.
At this moment, Gu Qingxue, who was in the room, was alarmed. She thought someone had come. “Who is it?”
Nine’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly pulled out the black arrow on the door and chased after the figure in the alley.
By the time Gu Qingxue walked to the door and opened the gate of the courtyard house, it was already empty outside. Not even a ghost could be seen.
Gu Qingxue stood at the door in bewilderment. She tilted her head in disbelief. “That’s strange. Did I mishear it?”
She had prepared the medicine in the room just now, so she clearly heard a muffled thud coming from the direction of the door.
As she was thinking, Gu Qingxue suddenly saw a small hole in the door from the corner of her eye.
She clearly remembered that there was not such a small hole in the door during the day. Gu Qingxue reached out to touch the mark, feeling that the wooden thorns on the edge of the small hole were still a little prickly. It was obvious that the mark had not been left for long.
However, nothing was left at the scene. Even though she was curious, she could not figure out what had happened.
“Someone came at this time?” Rong Zhan heard the noise and walked out of the hall. He looked at Gu Qingxue through the courtyard.
Gu Qingxue shook her head. “It’s nothing, Your Royal Highness. The medicine is ready. Let’s go to the hall first.”
Rong Zhan nodded. After Gu Qingxue walked past him into the hall, he followed her into the hall and closed the door.
As soon as Rong Zhan closed the door, the door of the south wing opened with a creak.
The pale Gong Lingyu peeked her head out sneakily and looked curiously in the direction of the hall where the lights were still on.
“Miao Yin, why do you think Sister Gu wants to be alone with my cousin?” Gong Lingyu looked curiously at the closed door of the hall and guessed what the two of them were doing in the room.
