The Lucky Star is Sweet and Wild

Chapter 282

Gu Nian paused slightly, but still nodded, "I have some things to arrange, please wait for me."

Qingyue glanced at Qingyun inadvertently, seeing her nod, the two then said in unison, "Yes!"

In their eyes, Gu Nian was just a child, even if a bit clever, how thoughtful could she be?

So, they inevitably acted carelessly.

Who would have thought that within this young body resided an adult soul!

Their seemingly secret communication was completely noticed by the deliberately observant Gu Nian.

Gu Nian pretended not to see, cheerfully hopping over to Cuihua.

Cuihua, unusually alert, held onto Gu Nian, looking worriedly at Qingyun and Qingyue.

Gu Nian patted Cuihua’s hand reassuringly and instructed, "Cuihua, they won’t harm us, but you must not tell anyone at home about why we came here today, understood?"

Cuihua nodded, her expression noticeably relaxed, "I understand, I won’t tell anyone."

Gu Nian smiled contentedly and said, "I have some things to do in town for a while, you head back first. If the family asks, just say I went to the mountain, got it?"

Cuihua hesitated a little, because Gu Nian was still young, and when Gu Ming came home, she wouldn’t be there, facing unknown strangers by herself here made her uneasy.

But in the end, she still listened to Gu Nian and left.

Once Cuihua was far away, Gu Nian adjusted her smile, turning to walk happily towards Qingyun and Qingyue.

"Sister Qingyun, Sister Qingyue, my brother said you would follow me from now on. Does that mean... you’ll listen to whatever I say?" Gu Nian asked innocently.

Qingyue slightly furrowed her delicate brows, but fortunately, Qingyun reacted first, smiling and saying, "Of course, since the young master entrusted us to you, we are now your people. Whatever needs you have, feel free to command us."

"That’s good." Gu Nian’s eyes flickered with a clever gleam, feigning a pitiful look, "I want to ask you to find out about two people for me..."

Lin Sanshui had gone out after those siblings last night and had not returned when she went out today. Since he wasn’t making any effort to hide anything, she didn’t have to adhere to the practice of not airing family dirty laundry.

Gu Nian wanted them to investigate those two people, who were actually Jing’er and Cheng.

Gu Nian didn’t know, just as she was finding out their true identities, Gu Bei had already received the report.

When Gu Nian returned home, Lin Sanshui had already come back.

Mrs. Jiang sat angrily to one side, Lin Sanshui stood to the side, looking somewhat irritable.

Gu Nian stepped forward and directly asked, "Father, are you really determined to let that pair of siblings come to our home?"

Facing Gu Nian, especially when thinking that the family’s current prosperity was all brought by her, Lin Sanshui was somewhat more amiable, "Niannian, I also hope you all can understand me a bit, if you are thinking of persuading, then don’t mention it anymore."

"Ha!" At this point, what more could Gu Nian say?

If there was anything, it was just disappointment in Lin Sanshui.

"I originally intended to persuade you, Father, but since you said this, there’s no need for me to say anything. Just hope... you won’t regret it later!"

Lin Sanshui didn’t notice the profound look in Gu Nian’s eyes, otherwise, he wouldn’t have spent his later years regretting his initial choice.
