An hour later, after dinner, Wei Changtian took Yang Liushi and Gu Paner out.
The three of them drove all the way out of the city and headed straight for the Tengu Army camp in the night.
Until this moment, Yang Liushi and Gu Pan'er still didn't know what they were going to do, but the former had already vaguely guessed something, and asked Wei Changtian softly:
"Ms. sir, are you ready to send sister Pan'er back first?"
"yes."
Wei Changtian looked at Gu Pan'er, whose expression suddenly became extremely surprised, and said with a smile: "The day after tomorrow, we will go with the army to Daqian Capital. This trip is not a sightseeing trip after all. It will be inconvenient for Pan'er to follow her, so it's better to go early. It’s better to go back.”
"Well, that's it."
Yang Liushi had no doubts about this, nodded and stopped talking.
However, when Gu Paner heard that Wei Changtian was about to send her away, she hurriedly expressed her position:
"Sir, I don't care!"
"It's not a question of whether or not we should do it."
Wei Changtian shook his head unmoved: "Pan'er, you have never practiced cultivation, and this time you go to beat the stick again, there must be many people watching you overtly and covertly."
"And I may not be able to protect you all the time, so...you should understand what I mean."
"..."
The words were not finished, but the meaning was very clear.
Wei Changtian felt that taking Gu Pan'er with him would be a burden and could easily be threatened, so he prepared to send him away in advance.
Of course Gu Pan'er understood the stakes, so after being stunned for a moment, she couldn't say anything more and just bit her lip lightly.
She definitely didn't want to leave Wei Changtian.
But who knows how to do nothing? Staying will only drag Mr. Wei down...
"Okay, then I will listen to the young master..."
"now it's right."
Wei Changtian smiled: "I will send someone to send you to Xinfeng first, and then you will live there temporarily. When things here are over, we will return to Shu together."
"By the way, do you have any relatives in Linchuan?"
"If there are any, tell me now and I can have them picked up together."
"No more. My parents died a few years ago."
Gu Pan'er's voice was very low: "My brothers at home have all gotten married and have stopped interfering with my affairs..."
"That's okay."
Wei Changtian sighed softly: "Oh, I know you don't want to leave, but fighting is not a child's play, and there is nothing we can do about it."
"And it probably won't take too long. It could be as short as half a month or as long as more than a month. I should be done here."
"I asked Zhang San to leave a piece of mother-in-law jade for you. If you need anything, just send your guard to send a message to me."
"Well, I know..."
Gu Pan'er was not that ignorant little woman. Even though she was reluctant to let go, she knew that she should not cause trouble for Wei Changtian, so she nodded obediently.
"I can be anything I want. As long as the young master and his wife are safe, I will be satisfied."
"..."
...
Just like that, almost a quarter of an hour later, Gu Pan'er went straight to Xinfeng under the escort of a group of Tengu troops.
Perhaps it was because she had no "substantial" relationship with Wei Changtian, let alone any status, so she didn't say anything "intimate" until she left.
She just said goodbye quietly, and finally took a deep look at Wei Changtian, and then got into the carriage.
Wei Changtian stood there and watched the carriage disappear into the night, then turned to Yang Liushi and said:
"Let's go, we're back."
"Well... Mr. Sir, how can I see that you don't feel uncomfortable at all?"
Yang Liushi followed Wei Changtian into the carriage and joked with a smile: "When I was separated from Sister Qingwan and Sister Qin'er before, you had to give me instructions for a long time."
"What's there to say?"
Curling his lips, Wei Changtian said truthfully: "Besides, how can Gu Pan'er compare with Wan'er and the others? I've only known her for only five days, so we can't say we have a deep friendship."
"Huh?"
Her eyes widened slightly, and she could see that Yang Liushi was surprised by Wei Changtian's "straightforwardness".
In fact, she had long felt that Wei Changtian was not very interested in Gu Pan'er, but the former expressed his opinion personally when buying the house this morning, so she never asked in detail.
And now Yang Liushi can take this opportunity to ask for clarification.
"Then why did my husband say that this morning?"
Looking at Wei Changtian, she asked doubtfully: "Since my husband has no intention of Miss Gu, why did he say such misleading words?"
"I just said that she can open a happy business in Shuzhou. It's your own fault."
Wei Changtian rolled his eyes, first irresponsibly distanced himself from the relationship, and then continued to explain:
"She showed up last night. Guan Kong and Lin Zhi are determined to cause trouble for her in the future."
"Also, I can't hide the fact that I ransomed her body. I guess everyone will know about it sooner or later."
"So if she still stays in Linchuan, or even in Daqian, she will definitely die a violent death one day."
"Since she can sacrifice her life to save me, then I will try my best to save her life, that's all."
"...Then my husband didn't make it clear this morning."
Yang Liushi, who understood the reason, said angrily: "I made Miss Gu happy in vain."
"say clearly?"
Wei Changtian shook his head: "Will she still leave if we explain clearly?"
"That's true...it's just that Miss Gu will be sad when she knows the truth."
Yang Liushi sighed: "The Nu family is also from a brothel, and we know how difficult it is for a brothel girl to find a sweetheart who doesn't dislike her."
"Just be sad if you're sad."
Wei Changtian didn't feel guilty at all, he just sighed casually.
"Better sad than dead."
"..."
Glancing helplessly at Wei Changtian, Yang Liushi said nothing more.
Now she understood that Wei Changtian just wanted to return Gu Pan'er's favor, and there might be some sympathy and pity mixed in there, but there should be almost no love between men and women.
Although this way she lost a "love rival" to compete for favor, Yang Liushi didn't feel happy at all, and even felt a little sad for Gu Pan'er in her heart.
But Gu Pan'er's matter was only a trivial matter after all, not to mention that the person was gone now, so she quickly stopped thinking about it and quietly changed the topic.
"Ms. sir, you haven't told me yet why you have enmity with Na Guankong."
"This is the matter..."
Wei Changtian turned his head and looked at the night outside the window, and said with a wry smile: "I want to know too."
"But he can't cause trouble for us for no reason."
Yang Liushi frowned and analyzed: "And if you think about it carefully, he should have been planning for a long time, otherwise he would not have been able to steal the gold hairpin from the house in Shuzhou City."
"My lord, could this Guan Kong be the elder of someone you have offended before?"
"Probably not."
Shaking his head, Wei Changtian actually had a guess about the purpose of Guan Kong, but he did not tell Yang Liushi.
After all, it is better not to let too many people know about the Son of Heaven and the plunder of luck.
"Okay, leave him alone... By the way, I suddenly remembered something."
