Chapter 18: Night Talk
"Clues?"
Gu Qinghuan's tone aroused everyone's curiosity.
Just when everyone was expecting her to say somethingβ
"Nope." Gu Qinghuan's answer caught people off guard.
Gu Lingxian was also stunned: "No, no?" β
"Well, no."
Gu Qinghuan's eyes had a deeper meaning, "Cousin asked me like this, do you know something?" β
Gu Lingxian's eyes flickered, and he quickly covered it up again, and said, "How could I know about that kind of thing?" β
"Really? When I looked at my cousin, I thought that my cousin knew who the murderer was and wanted to tell me. Gu Qinghuan looked very disappointed.
Gu Lingxian couldn't hold back her smile: "Qinghuan, you can't talk nonsense, I don't know, I think my cousin has any bad intentions for you." β
Gu Qinghuan smiled: "How come?" Who is my cousin, I don't know yet? β
This is an ambiguous statement.
Gu Lingxian's heart jumped when she heard this, how did she feel that Gu Qinghuan had something to say?
"It's not too early."
Gu Qinghuan's voice sounded, interrupting Gu Lingxian's train of thought, "I'll go back first." β
"You have a good rest." Gu Lingxian couldn't wait for Gu Qinghuan to leave quickly.
Gu Qinghuan smiled faintly, turned around and was about to walk out, but before he took two steps, he paused again, turned his head to Gu Lingxian and said, "By the way, cousin, if you really know anything, you can come to my yard at any time to find me and tell me who the murderer is." β
Qing Huan laughed. Gu Lingxian laughed dryly, "If I really know the murderer, didn't I say it earlier?" How can someone wronged you? β
Gu Qinghuan raised his eyebrows lightly, just smiled, without an interface, turned his head and left.
Gu Lingxian stared at her back, her eyes were dark.
The others left one after another, and soon Gu Yiwen, Gu Lingxian, Gu Yun, and Cai Yuping were left in the house.
Gu Yun was just about to leave, Cai Yuping suddenly said: "Mother, you go back first, I remember one thing, I have to find my cousin." β
"It's so late, can't it be tomorrow?" Gu Yun was a little impatient, and Cai Yuping's performance today made her very dissatisfied.
The daughter who used to be clever is especially unpleasant today!
It's not as good as that Gu Qinghuan who can't make it!
"I just made such a fuss, and I can't sleep anyway, I happen to be free today, so I might as well stop by and say it." Cai Yuping insisted.
Gu Yun frowned, her eyes stared at Cai Yuping, the lump of meat that fell from her body, could she still understand?
There is obviously something wrong with my daughter's appearance!
Cai Yuping's scalp was numb when Gu Yun saw it, and her heart was very empty.
Fortunately, at this time, Gu Lingxian relieved her: "Auntie, I probably know what's going on, cousin, do you want to talk about the flower viewing banquet held by Miss Nanling Hou Jiatong seven days later?" β
Cai Yuping reacted immediately and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, that's it!" Hey, I haven't received an invitation to the banquet yet! β
"There's no need to rush this."
Gu Lingxian smiled softly, "Two days ago, during the Qinghuan and Xuan banquet, Miss Jiang Yue mentioned it to me, and she said that she had made an appointment with Miss Tong and would post to the two of us." β
"That's good......"
Cai Yuping breathed a sigh of relief, "I heard that this flower viewing banquet ......"
"I still have some official business to deal with, Lingxian you are done, go back early to rest."
On the side, Gu Yiwen interrupted Cai Yuping's words impatiently, he was too lazy to listen to these boring things, not to mention that Gu Qinghuan was making a fuss just now, he was in a bad mood now, and he left in a hurry.
Gu Yun also chatted with the two girls about these trivial matters, and said, "Yuping, don't drag your cousin to talk for too long, delaying the rest time, it's not good for your skin." β
Saying that, Gu Yun looked at Cai Yuping's freckled face, looked away with some regret, and turned to look at Gu Lingxian's soft little face, feeling unhappy.
If only her daughter had been so beautiful!
It is estimated that the children of the high family will break the threshold of her family!
Sighing in her heart, Gu Yun turned around and left.
Cai Yuping touched her face, her face was gloomy, she didn't notice her mother's eyes.
She has freckles on her face, and you can't blame her!
It's all to blame for the father who came from a poor family, he couldn't let her wear gold and silver to live a good life like Gu Qinghuan, and he also passed on some of the ugliness of the lower riba people to her!
"Aren't you leaving?"
At this moment, Gu Lingxian's impatient voice sounded from the side, how could there be the gentleness of the others present before?
"Huh? Oh......" Cai Yuping reacted and hurriedly followed Gu Lingxian.
The two of them walked on the path of the house, and only spoke again when there was no one around.
"Are you sure you left any evidence?" Gu Lingxian stood still, staring at Cai Yuping.
Cai Yuping was originally full of confidence, but when she stared at her like this, she felt empty-hearted: "There shouldn't be, Qingyao said, she has burned her clothes." β
"That's good." Gu Lingxian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Cousin."
Cai Yuping suddenly spoke: "You shouldn't tell Gu Qinghuan about this, right?" β
Gu Lingxian was stunned for a moment, and looked at Cai Yuping in surprise: "Why do you think so?" β
After a pause, Gu Lingxian immediately remembered that before Gu Qinghuan left, she repeatedly told her those who had and didn't, and couldn't help but feel chills in her heart-
She was thinking!
Gu Qinghuan has nothing to do with repeating those words?
The relationship is in the separation between her and Cai Yuping!
Thinking of this, Gu Lingxian's heart jumped, but Gu Qinghuan didn't know who did this, how could he think of separation?
Could it be just a coincidence?
Still is......
"Cousin, you really won't say it, will you?" Cai Yuping saw that she didn't speak for a long time, and suddenly became anxious.
"Don't think about it."
Gu Lingxian came back to his senses and hurriedly comforted Cai Yuping: "How could I say this?" You're my cousin. β
"Isn't Gu Qinghuan also your cousin?" Cai Yuping pouted.
Gu Lingxian's expression froze, and she quickly covered it up, pretending to be gentle: "She is different from us. β
"Yes, she is a concubine, ours is a concubine, of course it's different......" Cai Yuping showed jealousy.
Hearing this, Gu Lingxian's face was not very natural, her father was a concubine, and she often couldn't raise her head in front of others, she hated it the most when someone was in front of her!
It's just that it's not good to say these things in front of Cai Yuping, so it's not good to save Cai Yuping from falling out with her.
"Anyway, cousin, don't tell me about it."
Cai Yuping said again: "If you confess me, you won't end well!" At that time, although Chu Xuan stepped on me when he left the table, he was also unintentional, if you didn't say anything to teach Chu Xuan a lesson, and let Gu Qinghuan carry the black pot by the way, I wouldn't have thought of doing that-"
"Jade Screen!"
Gu Lingxian interrupted Cai Yuping's words, her face was not very good-looking, and she laughed dryly: "What are you talking about?" Why can't I understand? β
After speaking, Gu Lingxian pulled Cai Yuping closer and lowered his voice: "Don't forget where this is!" Watch what you say and do! β
At this moment, Gu Lingxian no longer had the gentleness she had before, and in the dim night, the white moonlight sprinkled on her gloomy face, which looked terrifying.
Cai Yuping shook, cousin is so scary!
For a moment, Cai Yuping had the illusion that Gu Lingxian would kill her in order to seal the secret!
Thinking of this, Cai Yuping's hands and feet were cold, and he no longer had the previous arrogance, so he nodded obediently: "I know." β
"Okay, it's not too early, my aunt should be in a hurry."
Only then did Gu Lingxian let go of Cai Yuping, returned to his usual gentle appearance, and helped Cai Yuping straighten the folds on his sleeves, "You should go back early." β
