Chapter 586: Go Back and Find Her

“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t know. Just follow our instructions,” the tall, thin man said expressionlessly.
The scar-faced man continued, “It’s simple. We’ll lure Gu Qingluan’s son to the backyard, and the rest we’ll handle ourselves.”
Since they were unwilling to divulge more information, Gu Qin’er didn’t press further.
In the end, it was just a feud between her and Gu Qingluan.
Although she wanted to curry favor with Gu Qingluan, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction at seeing Gu Qingluan in trouble.
“Very well, you wait here. I’ll bring him over as soon as possible.”
The two groups parted ways.
Gu Qin’er didn’t immediately go to find Gu Xiaonan. Instead, she had one of the maids in the mansion take her to change her clothes.
Apart from the mistress’ clothes, there were only maids’ clothes in the mansion.
Gu Qin’er asked, “Where is the elder sister? I need to borrow an outfit from her.”
The maid hesitated, showing a troubled expression.
“I’m her sister, can’t 1 even see her?”
The maid was new at the Feng residence and was not very familiar with the relationship between Gu Qingluan and Gu Qin’er. She thought about how her own master held high regard for First Lady Gu. If she accidentally offended the Gu family, it would indirectly offend the new mistress of the residence.
After much hesitation, she finally nodded and said, “Fifth Lady, please come with me.”
They led Gu Qin’er outside the courtyard of her new room, and someone went to inform Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan was just about to lie down and rest when she heard the message from the servant. Her eyebrows lifted slightly.
She had not spoken yet, but Qianxi, who was by her side, frowned unhappily. “Why is she so troublesome? Is she deliberately disturbing the mistress?”
Qianxi didn’t have a good impression of anyone from the Gu family. When Gu Qin’er and Gu Si’er came to cause trouble before, even though Gu Si’er was the one who started it, Qianxi always felt that Gu Qin’er was a strange person, and being in the same room with her made her uncomfortable.
Now, she caused trouble again and came to disturb the bride. It was really infuriating.
Gu Qingluan glanced at her and spoke calmly, “My clothes aren’t suitable for her. If she doesn’t mind, she can wear a maid’s outfit.”
The servant who had delivered the message responded with a “yes” and left.
Gu Qingluan cast a glance at Qianxi and the others. “You don’t need to all stay here. If anyone wants to go out and have a look, you can go. Just leave someone outside to keep watch.”
The front yard was bustling with activity right now.
Bo He smiled and said, “Qian Huan, Qianxi, if you want to go, go ahead. I’ll stay with the mistress.”
Qian Huan and Qianxi knew that Bo He had a close relationship with Gu Qingluan, so they glanced at Gu Qingluan and saw that she didn’t object, so they excused themselves.
Once they were outside, they passed through the courtyard and saw Gu Qin’er’s frozen face at the courtyard entrance.
Qianxi nudged Qian Huan and gestured for her to take a look.
Qian Huan didn’t make much of a fuss about it. “Let’s go ahead and take a look. We can also find Xiaonan and Young Master Yuanxi while we’re at it.”
Qianxi, who received no response, seemed a bit disinterested. “Xiaonan and Young Master Yuanxi should be with Senior Han, right? Why do we need to find them?”
Qian Huan replied, “Let’s go there first and then decide.”
After a few more words, Gu Qin’er had already left.
Qianxi walked over and asked the maid who had just entered. Seeing that her hands were empty, she inquired, “Did the Fifth Lady take the clothes?”
The maid nodded and said, “Yes, her dress was soaked in front and had a sweet soup smell. It looks all sticky. She couldn’t continue wearing it.”
“Ha! She dressed up so meticulously, and now it’s all in vain, right?”
Qianxi took pleasure in her misfortune.
She knew the Fifth Lady had deliberately made the effort to dress up carefully to seduce someone from her mistress’ wedding. She probably purposely got herself wet to attract attention.
Mocked by Qianxi, Gu Qin’er was led to a guest room. She discarded her dirty dress and changed into a maid’s attire.
After changing, she didn’t immediately go to find Gu Xiaonan. Instead, she turned back and went to find Gu Qingluan..
