Chapter 231: Father’s Love Is Like a Mountain, She’s a Gu Lady
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was impossible for Master Xiao Wu to take the initiative to tell the Gu Master that Xiao Zhenting’s son was not his biological son. It was obvious that this Gu Master had come prepared since he could easily reveal Yan Jiuchao’s identity. Yan Jiuchao was the hardest stone in the Capital, but he was also the fattest lamb. The benefits he could squeeze out of him were comparable to heaven’s wealth.

A hundred thousand taels of gold. Yu Wan’s heart ached. This money clearly didn’t belong to her, so why did her heart ache so much when they spent it?

The Gu Master had a determined expression, as if he was certain that Xiao Zhenting would buy it.

This was not difficult to guess. No matter how cold the relationship between the father and son was on the surface, Xiao Zhenting did not hesitate to let his subordinates infiltrate Southern Xinjiang for Yan Jiuchao and bring the Gu Master back to the Capital at all costs. Just this thought alone was definitely not fake.

“I’m not in a hurry. Grand Marshal Xiao, take your time to consider.” The Gu Master did not mention anything about Yan Jiuchao’s illness.

Yu Wan sighed inwardly. This Gu Master’s medical skills were still unknown, but he was definitely an expert in negotiation. He knew how to guess the other party’s mentality and use his advantage fully. When necessary, he would stop when he had to. He understood that Xiao Zhenting was far more anxious than him about Yan Jiuchao’s illness. The more he didn’t speak, the more uncertain Xiao Zhenting was. If he spoke, it might backfire.

Yu Wan looked at Xiao Zhenting. A hundred thousand taels of gold was not a small sum. The Xiao Manor was not the descendant of a traitor, so how could they have so much money to squander? They were going bankrupt.

“Why should I believe that you can treat my son?” Xiao Zhenting said.

The Gu Master seemed to have expected him to have such doubts. He sneered and said, “It’s late tonight. I won’t cause trouble anymore. I’ll prove it to you tomorrow morning!”

That night, Yu Wan rested in the Xiao Manor. She was placed in the Wutong Hall. This was a courtyard built for Yan Jiuchao, but Yan Jiuchao had never stayed here.

Yu Wan woke up before dawn the next day. She had no problem sleeping in an unfamiliar bed, but she missed the three little fellows.

The Gu Master slept until late in the morning. Considering that he was tired from the journey, this was normal. Breakfast was still spent under the curses of the Gu Master. After that, the group sat in the carriage of the Xiao Manor and swayed to Lotus Flower Village.

When the three little fellows saw Yu Wan, they all threw themselves into Yu Wan’s arms. After not seeing her for a night, they also missed Yu Wan very much.

“Triplets?” The Gu Master raised his eyebrows and revealed a look of curiosity.

The two disciples of the Gu Master also stared at the three little fellows with indescribable curiosity and surprise.

Triplets were too rare, let alone such a beautiful child. The young man could not help but look at the children again and again. It was only when the female disciple beside him nudged him with her elbow and glared at him that he looked away resentfully.

Yu Wan brought the children out.

The Gu Master began to treat Yan Jiuchao. He did not allow anyone to watch the process of his treatment. Other than his two disciples, even his biological mother, Shangguan Yan, was invited out. About fifteen minutes later, the door opened.
