Qi Yu raised her eyebrows, "Why?"
Zhou Lanting somewhat embarrassingly lowered his head, no longer sporting the unruly demeanor from before, abjectly humble to the extreme: "I have known Gu Jingping since childhood. When we met a few days ago, Brother Gu was drunk and spoke of many incidents concerning the Princess. I figured the Princess, being so kind-hearted, would surely help me."
Qi Yu nodded understandingly.
It was indeed Gu Jingping, that loudspeaker.
Seeing her expression soften, Zhou Lanting seized the opportunity and pursued further, "Princess, that young Miss from the Su Family is my cousin. I am well aware of her personality; she would certainly not be the type to run away from marriage. Thus, I believe she might have been hidden away by someone or might have met with harm."
Qi Yu knit her brows slightly, not expecting that this marriage elopement indeed involved other hidden affairs.
