Seeing Zhao Mei fawning over Xiao Yun, Fang Qing concluded that she had no status in this family.
With that, the scattered servants in the hall let out soft puffing sounds. After all, they were the people around Xiao Yun. The servants in the house usually had to be respectful to this missy who was not justified in her name.
However, it did not mean that they could continue to watch this missy continue to act arrogantly.
When Zhao Mei saw that the servants around her were laughing at her, she stomped her foot and ran out.
Xiao Yun had no choice but to follow her to comfort his good friend's daughter.
At this moment, Fang Qing looked for the maid closest to her and asked, "May I know where my room is?"
The maid walked up carefully. "Madam has already arranged it for you." Then, she led Fang Qing upstairs.
However, because she was following the maid, Fang Qing did not see the abnormal expression on the maid's face.
After entering the room, the maid handed over a glass of water, closed the door, and left. Fang Qing sized up the room carefully. It was designed in an industrial style, and the decorations in the room were simple and simple. There were signs of sexual coldness everywhere.
Three seconds later, Fang Qing confirmed that this was a man's room, and it should be the room of a relative of the owner of the house.
Fang Qing shook her head secretly. Was this so-called wealthy Lin family only capable of using such tricks to embarrass others?
The night slowly passed. Fang Qing took a hot bath and went to bed after drinking the water.
What she did not know was that Gu Cheng, who was far away in the CBD high-rise office building in the center of City A, was having an international video conference when the funny scene played out in the hall.
When Gu Cheng was walking upstairs to his office, Cheng Zheng, the special assistant beside him, came over and whispered to him, "Young master, miss Lin will be home tonight."
Hearing this name, Gu Cheng was stunned for two seconds to confirm that he did not know there was such a person. Then, he asked, "Who?"
Cheng Zheng felt uncomfortable all over. He wanted to tell his young master, but he was too embarrassed to say it. He hesitated for a long time before he said, "It is the young lady whom you betted a doll to kiss when you were young."
"What?" Even Gu Cheng, who was known for his calm self, was shocked by the news. "Who made a doll for a wedding? The one that has a fiancée?"
At this moment, the sweat on Cheng Zheng's forehead almost fell to the tip of his eyes. "This... of course it's yours..."
For 28 years, Gu Cheng had always received an orthodox English aristocratic education. After graduation, he had thrown himself into work early. His attitude towards relationships had always been very cautious and self-controlled.
But now, a child marriage that he had never heard of before suddenly appeared. It was undoubtedly beyond Gu Cheng's understanding.
Gu Cheng sat on the swivel chair and closed his eyes. His brows were tightly furrowed. For some reason, a face suddenly appeared in his mind, awakening his long-lasting memories.
On the way back, Gu Cheng had been thinking about this face in his memory. He had completely forgotten what special assistant Cheng Zheng had said to him.
When he got home and saw that there was no one in the inner hall, Gu Cheng let out a sigh of relief and walked back to his room.
When he got to his room, Gu Cheng first took a bath in the outer room. He wrapped himself in a towel and even had water dripping down his body as he walked into the inner bedroom.
However, Gu Cheng only noticed that the table lamp in the inner bedroom was still turned on. There seemed to be something curled up on the bed. Gu Cheng carefully approached it and saw a peaceful sleeping face under the dim yellow table lamp.
Time seemed to stop at this moment. After a long time, a deep and magnetic voice gently floated across the room.
"So it's you."
The yellowed memories flooded into Gu Cheng's mind like a flood. Thirteen years had passed, and it was still as vivid as yesterday.
She still did not seem to have changed at all.
At the thought of this, Gu Cheng's furrowed brows that had been locked tightly for a day finally relaxed, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a comfortable arc.
His well-defined right hand unconsciously stroked the strands of hair on Fang Qing's forehead. "Fang Qing, is it?" He seemed to be mumbling to himself, but at the same time, he seemed to be extremely certain.
The person under his palm seemed to have sensed this touch, and his head moved slightly, letting out a soft moaning sound. It was completely different from the sharp edge he had shown in the hall.
Gu Cheng remembered that special assistant Cheng had reported to him about the situation at home that night, and he could not help but burst out laughing. "You're quite capable, little thing."
After that, Gu Cheng covered Fang Qing with the quilt. He slowly ran to the right side of the bed and found a safe distance to sleep.
Gu Cheng himself was a person who slept quietly and did not move. However, he was tall. Coupled with the fact that he had been working out all year round, he was very tense that night, so he did not sleep at all.
The next morning.
The system of the mansion started working as soon as the sun rose. Some people were in the kitchen preparing the exquisite snacks that the masters would eat soon, while others were hurriedly sorting out the clothes and luggage of the masters.
However, the premise was that they must not disturb the masters' sweet dreams.
However, the quietness of this morning was broken by a woman's hysterical scream.
Zhao Mei stood at the door of Gu Cheng's room in a daze. The blush on her face seemed to add color to her scream just now.
Last night, after Zhao Mei had been humiliated by Fang Qing, she ran to the back garden and pulled Xiao Yun, who had come to comfort her, to cry for a long time. She kept saying that she was not justified in the Gu family and that she had suffered a great injustice.
After all, Xiao Yun was Gu Cheng's stepmother. They did not have a deep relationship. When he was young, he used his looks to coax Gu Cheng's father into submission. But now, it was different from the past. He did not have any sons or daughters, so he could only place his hopes on Gu Cheng.
