"Xia Lian, go and get the key." Gu Yunchun whispered to the maid.

Xia Lian was startled, then Fu Shen accepted the order and turned around and entered the inner room.

After a while, she slowly came out with a copper key. When her eyes glanced at Gu Yanfei, there was a bit of resentment in her eyes.

"Girl." Xia Lian first presented the copper key to Gu Yunchuang. She hesitated to speak, and finally swallowed back the words she was about to say.

Gu Yunkuang then turned to hand the key to Gu Yanfei: "Second sister, this is the key."

Gu Yanfei accepted it without saying a word and planned to go over and take a look.

She had something on her mind and was about to leave, but she heard Gu Yunzhuang say before her: "Second sister, I know you had a hard time in Huaibei in the past. It's okay if you don't like me."

"But that incident back then...I was also innocent. I was just a newborn baby at that time. I didn't know anything, and I was even more powerless."

"Second sister, I have already returned everything I can to you."

Whether it's identity, brother, engagement... or this key.

Gu Yunkuang looked at Gu Yanfei steadily, with a solemn expression, and said word by word: "I don't owe you anymore."

Recalling the scenes in Cihe Hall, Gu Yunkuang's expression became more determined, and the dust settled in his heart: Gu Yanfei came back with hatred, even his grandmother couldn't tolerate him, so how could he possibly tolerate himself?

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind roared in through the half-open window, blowing out an octagonal palace lantern near Gu Yunkuang.

The room was half dark, except for another lamp on the other side that was still shining quietly.

Half of Gu Yunzhuang's face was dark and half was bright. His face, which was usually full of smiles, now looked solemn.

Xia Lian quickly lit the extinguished lantern again, and the room was as bright as day again.

When the lights were turned on, Gu Yunkuang returned to his normal appearance, and said in a gentle tone: "If you still can't get over the hurdle in your heart, then from now on, we will do whatever it takes."

She will not give in anymore, nor will she act out any drama of sisterly love.

Everything ends here.

Gu Yanfei tilted her head half-smilingly, pursed a pair of shallow smiles, and asked calmly: "You said you are innocent, but what about the person who swapped you and me?"

Gu Yanfei was naturally referring to Su Niang.

"..." Gu Yunkuang was speechless as if his throat was being strangled.

Su Niang has been by her side as a wet nurse since she was a child, taking care of her food, clothing, housing, and transportation, paying attention to her emotions, caring about her smiles, and caring for her in every possible way.

Su Niang may be sorry for Gu Yanfei, but she is very good to herself.

Gu Yanfei asked again: "Is she dead?"

"Have you been sent to the official?"

"Where are the people?"

Gu Yanfei asked three more questions in succession, concisely and to the point, but hitting the point every time.

Gu Yunkuang pursed her lips tightly, her face looked unnatural, and her eyes wandered for a moment.

Half a year ago, after the incident about the real and fake daughter broke out, Mrs. Gu was originally going to give Su Niang some medicine, but she stopped her, and then she spared Su Niang's life...

Gu Yan took a step forward, looked down at Gu Yunchuang who was sitting on the chair, and continued with a cold and firm voice: "Is she still in the house, living a life with little maids to take care of her?"

Gu Yunkuang pursed her lower lip, looked directly into Gu Yanfei's eyes, and said righteously: "Second sister, do you want her to die? That is a living life!"

In this era of supremacy of imperial power, human life is like a piece of grass and is the most despicable.

The master can kill his slaves with a stick at will, wrap the body in a straw mat and throw it into a mass grave without any responsibility. Even if the family of the deceased goes to the government to complain, it will be in vain, and they may even get a beating.

Gu Yanfei, who grew up in Huaibei since childhood, should understand this very well. She should know best the helplessness and humility of the people at the bottom.

Gu Yunzhuang looked at Gu Yanfei with an indescribable look, and sighed quietly in his heart: Sure enough, people are the most forgetful animals. Gu Yanfei just returned to the capital, and he completely left his past self behind and re-established himself as a human being.

The master's position overlooks all sentient beings.

"The mistake has been made. Even if we kill her, we can't turn back time." Gu Yunkuang first tried to persuade her with reason, and then with emotion, "Second sister, she took you and me out of that battlefield in Yangzhou back then.

, even if there is no credit, there is still hard work..."

"Su Niang is at fault. What she did was all for me... Although all this was not what I wanted, I have tried my best to make it up to you." Isn't this enough?!

These words were exactly the same as what Gu Yanfei heard from Mrs. Gu in her previous life.

She smiled, remembering the aloof benefactor Su Niang looked like when she faced her in her previous life.

Gu Yunkuang bit his lip slightly and curled his fingers to hold the handkerchief.

Gu Yanfei's eyes were clear and cold, and she said: "You said, you have already returned everything to me..."

"What about father? I was supposed to be in his lap for six years."

"There are still fourteen years of misplaced life. During these fourteen years, you will be in heaven and I will be in hell."

"The Gu family has shaped you into who you are now. You are still enjoying everything the Gu family has given you with peace of mind and refuse to let go... You can't pay it back!"

Every word and sentence she spoke left Gu Yunchuang speechless.

Gu Yanfei didn't want to listen to Gu Yunchun's sophistry anymore, so he dropped the last sentence in a gentle tone: "Gu Yunchun, please listen clearly to me. I am the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, and you..."

"It's just a family birth."

After saying that, she took the key and walked away regardless of Gu Yunchuang's reaction.

The door curtain lifted and fell, swinging back and forth, as if laughing mockingly.

Gu Yunchun was frozen in place, as if there was an invisible mountain pressing on her shoulders and back, so heavy that she could not move.

The three words Gu Yanfei said "having children at home" deeply hurt her, and the color gradually faded from Gu Yunchun's face.

Xia Lian did not go to see Gu Yanfei off. She looked at the swaying door curtain in front of her and said angrily: "Girl, the second girl is really ignorant. Thank you for treating her so well and saying so many good things to her in front of Prince Fang. Even Da

The lady’s dowry was also given to her..."

Xia Lian really felt aggrieved for her girl.

Gu Yunkuang opened the window again, and the cold wind came to his face. Looking out the window, he could see Gu Yanfei's back gradually disappearing into the night.

She retreated and retreated, gave in again and again, just because she felt that she was the winner in this matter, so she gave in repeatedly, but this did not mean that she was a loser.

It doesn't even mean that Gu Yanfei can rely on her concession to dominate her.
