Gu Qingxin looked up to see Aunt Zhou nervously walking in. Gu Qingxin put down her chopsticks and asked, “Aunt Zhou, what’s wrong?”
“Miss Gu, the old master has brought some guests over,” Aunt Zhou answered anxiously.
Could it be Beiming Han’s father!
“Miss, maybe you should hide for a while.”
Gu Qingxin nodded, she too had no desire to meet the Beiming Family members, fearing she might unintentionally stir up trouble.
Unfortunately, as Gu Qingxin was about to leave, she was halted by Long Xuxu.
“Miss Gu, so you’re here!” Long Xuxu conveniently walked into the living room, smiling at Gu Qingxin.
“Miss Long, hello,” Gu Qingxin felt that Long Xuxu seemed a bit strange today, not quite the same as before.
“Xuxu, who is this? Someone you know?” Long’s father glanced at the girl coming out of the dining room, looking at his daughter.
“Oh, she’s the girl I mentioned before who d blood to Grandpa Beiming. She’s currently a maid in the Han family.” Long Xuxu explained with a smile.
Although her words seemed innocuous, they made Long’s father and Beiming Wuji frown.
The words immediately flashed through their minds – scheming!
This girl was too cunning!
Beiming Wuji’s gaze fell on Gu Qingxin’s face. Wasn’t this the girl who blocked a cue stick for his son in his office last time?
“If you are a servant, then you should at least look like one! What are you wearing! Go change your clothes immediately!” Beiming Wuji commanded.
“Yes, I will take her… to change immediately,” Aunt Zhou hastily held Gu Qingxin’s hand.
“How come I haven’t seen Luode after such a long time, where did he go?” Beiming Wuji’s frown deepened. He had not been to the North Garden for a short period of time, and it has turned so unruly.
“Master, I’ll have someone fetch Butler Luode immediately,” Aunt Zhou said while pulling Gu Qingxin away.
“Aunt Zhou, you seem very afraid of him,” Gu Qingxin asked in a low voice.
“Miss Gu, there’s much you don’t know. Currently, our old master is the one in charge of the Beiming family… Remember, no matter what happens, don’t defy the old Master, understand?” Aunt Zhou seriously warned her.
Gu Qingxin could feel Aunt Zhou’s real fear of the man outside. She recognized Beiming Wuji as the one who had slapped Beiming Han in his office last time. Was he really Beiming Han’s biological father?
Aunt Zhou made Gu Qingxin change into a maid’s uniform then led her back to the hall. Before they returned, she kept reminding her not to say or do anything and just stand there.
“Dad, Uncle, you guys talk. I haven’t been to North Garden in a long time and want someone to show me around.” Long Xuxu stood up, walked over to Gu Qingxin, and said, “Miss Gu, would you mind showing me around?”
“Your cousin should be home soon. Don’t go too far , today we’re here to discuss your marriage,” Beiming Wuji reminded, clearly pleased with his future daughter-in-law.
Gu Qingxin felt her mind go blank. Marriage? Beiming Han and Long Xuxu were to be engaged!
Long Xuxu gave a sweet smile, “I understand, Uncle.”
“Thankyou, Miss Gu.” LongXuxu pulled Gu Qingxin away.
“Why call her Miss Gu? She’s just a servant.” Beiming Wuji obviously looked down on this girl. Remembering how she had previously stopped him from disciplining his son, his dislike for her intensified.
