Chapter 172 Gods Online CP

The next day, Gu Xingzhao packed up a lot of things and went to He's house, preparing to nourish Lu Youtiao's body.

  What she didn't expect was that as soon as she arrived, she saw He Zhen at the gate of the courtyard, talking to a young man who was accompanied by a servant and carrying a lot of things in his hands.

  "Sir, Miss Lu said she won't see anyone, so you should go back."

  The man looked hesitant, "Madam He, please tell her that my old friend Jiang Shao is here to visit, and I'd like to invite her to see him."

  He Zhen was silent. In fact, Lu Youtiao was still asleep. It was the maid named Qiuyue beside her who said that Miss Lu had instructed last night that if anyone came to see her today, she should not see anyone.

  She had heard about the Lu family's affairs from her father before. The Jiang and Lu families had a good relationship in the early years, but they stopped communicating because the Lu family broke off the engagement.

  Who would have thought that Miss Lu had just divorced last night and today Jiang Shao came here without stopping.

  If she hadn't seen that he and the servant behind him were carrying a bunch of things in their hands, she would have suspected that the Jiang family was here to take advantage of her misfortune.

  He Zhen sighed and motioned the maid next to her to pass on the message, "Please wait a moment, Mr. Jiang."

  Hearing the name Jiang Shao, Gu Xingzhao immediately thought of who she was. Out of curiosity, she deliberately went around to He Zhen to take a look. She was immediately stunned. She was so beautiful.

  She seldom uses the word "beautiful" to describe a man, but this Jiang Shao really has a pretty face that is prettier than a woman's. If he were in the modern entertainment industry, he would definitely have a large number of fans.

  Gu Xingzhao recalled Yang Fang's appearance and suddenly realized that Lu Youtiao didn't like pretty boys, but preferred mature and stable men.

  After all, in terms of family background, the son of the Minister of Revenue is far superior to the Yang family.

  In terms of feelings, they are childhood sweethearts.

  Child, your problem is your looks. You are too delicate and tender.

  Jiang Shao carried the things and waited patiently. The servants behind him wanted to persuade their master to go back. If the master knew that the master had come secretly to look for Miss Lu, he would definitely be scolded.

  After waiting for a long time, the maid who delivered the message came back and led Jiang Shao to the courtyard where Lu Youtiao was temporarily staying.

  Gu Xingzhao followed closely behind, his gossipy heart burning with curiosity.

  When they saw Jiang Shao again, Qiuyue and Dongshuang had different expressions. Both of them were sold to the Lu family when they were young to follow the eldest girl, and they knew everything about Jiang Shao and the eldest girl.

  It is said that childhood sweethearts are too familiar with each other that they cannot develop romantic feelings for each other.

  Especially Qiuyue, who used to think that only the girl's feelings were the most important. Now that she sees Jiang Shao still coming, she can't help but think, if the girl had married Mr. Jiang... at least she wouldn't be hurt like she is now.

  Standing at the door, Jiang Shao hesitated, "Or, I'll just stand here."

  When they were young, there was no strict separation between men and women, and it was okay to fight and play around. Moreover, at that time, both families had a tacit attitude towards the marriage. He always thought that this was a foregone conclusion and never thought that there would be any accidents.

  At first, he also complained about the Lu family's breaking off the engagement. He didn't know why he lost to Yang Fang. Later, he realized that love cannot be forced.

  After Lu Youtiao got married, in order to avoid suspicion, they never spoke to each other when they met at banquets in the past few years.

  When she saw the complaint last night, she thought that the Lu family was now in exile and there might not be anyone in the capital who could help her, so she immediately ran to the Yang Mansion. However, she was a step too slow and heard from people nearby that Lu Youtiao got on the carriage with her dowry and finally went to the He Mansion.

  This morning, he brought a lot of good ginseng for nourishing the body from the warehouse, as well as her favorite food, jewelry, and her favorite rouge and powder. As long as it was something Lu Youtiao liked, he prepared a portion of it, thinking that she must be in a bad mood at the moment, and if she could see the things she liked before, maybe she would feel better.

  But now, things are different from before. She had just divorced and she walked into this room by herself. If others knew about it, there would probably be a lot of gossip, which would be detrimental to her reputation.  

  Gu Xingzhao couldn't help but sigh that Lu Youtiao was really blind.

  Qiuyue was a carefree person and didn't think it that deeply. Dongshuang, on the other hand, was thoughtful and immediately dismissed the servants who were sweeping the yard.

  "Master Jiang, the young lady is ill and cannot stay in bed. Please come in and talk."

  Jiang Shao was slightly stunned, "She is sick?"

  When he learned that Lu Youtiao was ill, he didn't bother to avoid suspicion. He immediately handed the things in his hand to the two of them and strode into the house.

  "A-tiao?"

  The moment he saw Lu Youtiao, Jiang Shao's heart ached terribly, as if there was a knife repeatedly cutting his heart and stabbing into his heart.

  The person in front of me was very thin and pale. There was no longer the smile in her eyes as before, as if a gust of wind could take her away.

  He still remembered that Lu Youtiao used to be lively and playful, always playing with him and climbing trees to steal bird eggs

  . This person who was once the apple of his eye, whom he was reluctant to even make cry, has now been tortured into this state by another person.

  Seeing her old friend again, Lu Youtiao had mixed feelings. But before she could think of what to say, she saw Jiang Shao walking out of the house with a gloomy face. She immediately became anxious, "Jiang Shao!"

  Because of anxiety, Lu Youtiao jumped off the couch and fell to the ground.

  There was a loud "thump" sound. The people outside hurried into the house, saw the scene inside, and then quietly left.

  Jiang Shao had already helped Lu Youtiao up. When he looked at her closely, he found that she was so weak that she even stumbled when getting off the bed. He felt even more upset.

  Lying back on the couch, Lu Youtiao grabbed his sleeve tightly and said, "Don't go."

  Jiang Shao pursed his lips tightly, stood beside the bed, stared at her, and said in an unhappy tone, "Where can I go?"

  Lu Youtiao's eyes were red.

  Jiang Shao was pretending at first, but now his heart softened. "Okay, okay, auntie, I won't go. I won't go anywhere."

  "I'll just stay right here and watch you!"

  He gritted his teeth and wanted to ask Lu Youtiao why she got himself into this state, but he was reluctant to open his mouth.

  Only then did Lu Youtiao let go of her hand.

  When he was young, he was teased and injured his leg. Jiang Shao said nothing at the time, and his face was gloomy just like he is now. As a result, the next day he beat the man so badly that his face was swollen and he couldn't get out of bed. Because of this incident, Lord Jiang was accused of not parenting his children well in the court and was fined one month's salary. Jiang Shao was also locked up at home for three whole months to reflect on himself.

  If Jiang Shao went to find Yang Fang at this time, someone would definitely die.

  Gu Xingzhao was a little worried.

  She had just truly felt the murderous intent from Jiang Shao. This kid really wanted to kill her. If Lu Youtiao hadn't fallen off the couch, she would have rushed to the Yang family by now.

  The key point is that Lu Youtiao knows Jiang Shao so well.

  Alas, Lu Youtiao, oh Lu Youtiao, learn more from your grandfather. At least your grandfather's vision of men is much better than yours.

  The sky is clear, the rain has stopped, and your author has started school
