d return to the village with these ten yamen officers first.They rushed back to the village.There was no sign of movement at the old Zong family house. Zong Pingkang was terrified, and he couldn't sle...Gu Liu Sheng narrowed his eyes, not immediately agreeing.

Fang Jinshu stared straight at him. From Gu Liusheng's current expression, she saw a hint of distrust towards her.

"No." He uttered those two words.

Fang Jinshi wasn't very angry or disappointed, she just had a feeling that this was to be expected.

"Since you have entered my Pear Garden, you are guests of Gu Liu Sheng. When you can leave is entirely up to me."

Fu Ming was stunned. In his entire life, he had never met a commoner who spoke with such arrogance.

"Surname Gu, who do you think you are"

"What a big mouth!"

“You say we are your guests, but you keep us locked in a dungeon, bound with ropes, and restrict our freedom. Is this how you treat your guests”

Gu Liu Sheng smiled and nodded, "Yes, if Young Master Fu is unhappy, he can go back and complain to King Jing'an. See if your family will stand up for you."

Fu Mingqi's face flushed.

This insidious scoundrel, Gu Liusheng, actually treats me like a child! I wouldn't go back to Uncle Wang and tattle on him anyway!

Although I did have that thought just now.

"Alright, since Mr. Gu is willing to keep us for a visit, we'll stay."

"But I have one request," Fang Jinshu's lips curled into a smirk, her eyes flashing with a hint of coldness.

"Let's live in a different yard."

She was referring to the courtyard behind the secret passage.

Outside Bai Cui Garden's courtyard, they might still have a chance to escape. But if they were to enter that wooden house inside the garden, they would truly be held firmly in Gu Liu Sheng's grasp, with no way out.

It's impossible to fly even with wings.

She thought she'd have to argue with Gu Liusheng for a while, he wouldn't let her go, probably because Gu Feng was still unconscious.

Once Gu Feng woke up and confirmed that he was truly alright, then would Gu Liu Sheng allow them to leave.

To everyone's surprise, Gu Liu Sheng simply nodded without much thought.

"Yes."

Then, a sly, mischievous smirk played at the corner of his lips.

"Well, I didn't expect Miss Zong to be so daring, to live in the same courtyard with five men at the same time."

"Tsk tsk!"

Fang Jinshi's face darkened immediately. This damned Gu Liusheng! What was he rambling about!

She immediately turned her head to look at Zong Yu, eager to explain.

Unexpectedly, despite Zong Yu's grim expression, he remained unfazed by Gu Liu Sheng's provocations at this moment.

"I believe in my lady's arrangements."

Zong Yu remained calm and composed, even appearing understanding. This instantly extinguished Gu Liu Sheng's desire to tease them.

He twitched the corner of his mouth, “Forget it, just don’t make any more trouble, letting you guys live together isn’t a problem either.”

"Bring them to the guest house."

A servant from the Gu family came out to lead Fang Jinshu and the others. Gu Liusheng got up directly and walked away.

Fu Mingqi's voice was filled with rage as he shouted, "What kind of people are these!"

"No manners, no upbringing! Blind to others!"

Even with the title of prince in the capital, he wouldn't dare be this arrogant.

As an ordinary citizen, what right does he have!

Fu Ming was furious.

Fang Jinshi was also pretty upset with Liu Sheng for coming at her like that and stirring up trouble, but seeing people around her even angrier than she was, well, she inexplicably wasn't angry anymore.

She even had the heart to comfort Fu Ming in turn.

"Alright, alright, Young Master Fu, let's not stoop to his level."

Gu Liu Sheng is just a nouveau riche, utterly devoid of class. He reeks of money and nothing else.

Fu Ming heard this, his expression complicated as he looked at her, "Are you praising him or cursing him"

"Of course, I was scolding him," Fang Jinshi exclaimed.

"Young Master Fu came to save me despite the difficulties and dangers, so I naturally stand on your side."

A group of idle, spoiled rich young masters, if she told the truth, they would tear her to shreds.

"Let's go to the guest house and talk later."

Fang Jinshi led Zong Yu, following behind the servant from the Gu family, out of the living room and onto a winding path.

Fu Ming directly beckoned Shen Li to follow him.

Zhao Xingzhou and Su Yusheng's expressions were rather complicated, they exchanged a glance, and Su Yusheng patted Zhao Xingzhou on the shoulder with a hint of consolation.

"Let's go, it's good that she's fine, isn't it"

From the first moment he saw Zhao Xingzhou, Su Yusheng knew that the man had extraordinary intentions for becoming a divine doctor. After his observation just now, Su Yusheng had completely confirmed his suspicions.

However, she was already a married woman. Zhao Gongzi's love for such a woman was destined to be bumpy and would likely not have a result.

There is fragrant grass everywhere under heaven, so why bother really something Fang Jinxiu hadn't expected.Not only was Zong Bai dumbfounded, but even the few people in the old house were temporarily stunned.Mu walked to Old Madam Wu's face, "Mother-in-law, my...
