She hugged Brother Yu and waited quietly for him to calm down, her eyes fixed on Gu Xijue without blinking.

This made Gu Xijue, who had originally thought he could take this opportunity to do something to save the situation, feel a little flustered.

He, he felt a little regretful.

Maybe I shouldn't anger Gu Yu.

He tried to speak, pursing his lips. "It's really not me. I didn't kill..."

"It was you, you said, Xiaobai, it was you who killed him, he killed Xiaobai, Xiaobai..."

Brother Yu, whose emotions had originally eased somewhat, lost control of his emotions again after hearing Gu Xijue's words.

"noob?"

Pei frowned, looking at Brother Yu who was out of control and sad, and then at Gu Xijue who was obviously avoiding her gaze and feeling guilty, and she already understood something in her heart.

"Tell me, did you do what happened to Xiao Bai?"

She yelled at Gu Xijue.

Gu Xijue shook his head, "I'm not that stupid."

Gu Yu was extremely excited. He struggled in Pei's arms, trying to break free. "That's right, that's right, he admitted..."

"Brother Yu, Mother will figure it out. Believe me." She hugged Brother Yu tightly, walked a few steps to Gu Xijue, handed Brother Yu to Caifeng, and glared at Gu Xijue condescendingly.

"You're not that stupid, but you lied to Brother Yu and made him lose control. You thought that I would change my mind after you played this trick. Gu Xijue, do you know that this will make me hate you even more..."

"no no…"

Gu Xijue was a little scared. He knew that he was nothing now. He was not the adopted son listed in the family tree of the Marquis' Mansion, nor was he Pei Jiuniang's beloved adopted son. Even his grandmother Liu was very dissatisfied with him.

If Pei Jiuniang was determined to kick him out, or do something...

He was powerless to change.

At this moment, he realized he was wrong.

He made a wrong bet.

He forgot that Pei Jiuniang was no longer the person who was partial to him in the past.

"I was wrong, don't..."

His heart was getting more and more panicked, his legs went weak and he knelt down.

"Get out of here, Gu Xijue. For the last time, don't force me..."

Pei Jiuniang didn't say the rest of the words, but Gu Xijue still felt the threat and hatred in her words.

All along, the reason why he chose to ignore it even though he knew she was reborn and knew everything he had done was because he knew Pei Jiuniang was soft-hearted and that although she hated him, she had never thought of revenge.

But he suddenly realized that he was wrong.

When he touched Gu Yu, he was wrong.

"No, it's not me, it should be Yuzhi..."

He was scared and had to give Gu Yuzhi away in order to protect himself.

Although he was just guessing, it was not completely without basis.

In his previous life, he discovered that Gu Yuzhi liked to abuse small animals. She would often bring home kittens and puppies and prick them with needles. When she was in a bad mood, she would even step on their heads with her feet or lift them up high and throw them to the ground.

In the previous life, the white cat raised by my grandmother Liu was thrown to death by Gu Yuzhi.

In order to escape punishment, he had to help her identify Gu Yu.

He knew that even if he didn't say it, Pei Jiuniang, who had returned from rebirth, would think of it sooner or later, so it would be better to let him do a favor.

Anyway, in this life, this sister is useless.

"Brother Yu, let me take you to seek justice for Xiao Bai."

Pei Jiuniang glanced at Gu Xijue lightly, then took Gu Yu into her arms and gently wiped away his tears with a handkerchief.

There were still traces of tears on Brother Yu's palm-sized face, but his emotions were obviously much more stable than before, and he became dependent on her again. He just held her hand tightly, expectant but also afraid, "Xiaobai?"

"Xiaobai, it's going to be fine."

Pei Jiuniang knew how important Xiaobai was to Brother Yu. No matter how busy Brother Yu was, he would always take time out every day to play with Xiaobai. Especially since Xiaobai was injured by Chu Xingzhou last time, Xiaobai's health was already in poor condition.

Brother Yu has always felt guilty for not protecting his only friend.

She secretly swore in her heart that if Xiaobai really had an accident, she would not let Gu Yuzhi off easily.

"Ah."

Brother Yu nodded gently in her arms, rested his head on Pei Jiuniang's shoulder, and when he saw Gu Xijue, he buried his head in her arms again.

Pei Jiuniang glanced at Gu Xijue and said, "You follow along."

After saying that, he carried Brother Yu out without caring whether Gu Xijue heard it or not.

At the gate of the courtyard, he met Gu Tingzhi, who had been waiting for a long time and came in a hurry to look for him.

Gu Tingzhi saw Brother Yu with red eyes in Pei Jiuniang's arms at a glance, and Pei Jiuniang's condition was not right either.

I looked down and saw that Gu Xijue also had red eyes.

He was a little dazed and asked subconsciously, "What's going on?"

Pei Jiuniang was angry, but she ignored him and carried Yu Ge forward.

Caifeng behind him saluted Gu Tingzhi and briefly told him what had happened. Gu Tingzhi frowned, glanced at Gu Xijue, quickened his pace and caught up with Pei Jiuniang and her son.

Seeing that she didn't stop, he took a few steps forward to stop her.

"Could it be that he got lost because he was playing around?"

"What do you mean? Do you think Brother Yu and I have wronged someone?"

Hearing this, Pei Jiuniang suddenly couldn't help herself and questioned him with a dark face.

"That's not what I meant, it's just..."

"That's what I mean. I think it's just a dog, insignificant. Gu Tingzhi, what if it was your mother Liu's dog? Would you really think so?"

She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but when Pei Jiuniang said this, she suddenly felt that there were two more gazes on her, one was Gu Xijue, and the other was Gu Yu.

She also suddenly remembered that in her previous life, Gu Xijue and Gu Yuzhi accused Gu Yu of torturing and killing Liu's white cat. They also dug up the corpses of many small animals in the yard where he lived, confirming Gu Yu's reputation as a madman.

In her previous life, she never doubted it, she just thought she had given birth to a monster?!

Now that she thought about it, her brother Yu must have taken the blame for someone else.

His brother Yu is so innocent.

How despicable are those who framed him.

The most hateful ones are her and Gu Tingzhi.

As a father and mother, not trusting him is the greatest cruelty to Brother Yu.

Apparently, Gu Xijue just remembered it, which is why he suddenly became so alert.

Ke Yu brother?

Pei Jiuniang suddenly remembered that Brother Yu discovered that Xiaobai was missing, so she came to question Gu Xijue?

And Brother Yu often dreams, and he always repeats in his dreams...

A bold idea emerged in her mind.

Seeing that Gu Tingzhi didn't speak for a long time, her face darkened a little, and she walked past him and walked forward.

After a while, Gu Tingzhi came to his senses and hurriedly chased after her. Seeing that she seemed to be having some difficulty holding Yu Ge, he wanted to lend a hand, but as soon as he offered his hand, Yu Ge hugged Pei Jiuniang's neck tightly.

He seemed to be frozen for a moment.

When I came to my senses again, the mother and son had already walked far away.

Vaguely aware of something tugging at him, he lowered his head and saw Gu Xijue with red eyes and a pair of small hands gently pulling at his robe.

"what are you doing?"

His tone was naturally a little bad.

But Gu Xijue seemed not to hear it, her eyes were red, and tears as big as beans rolled down her cheeks, "No, don't chase me out."

He didn't say anything, just gently pulled his hand.

Gu Xijue breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Tingzhi didn't think there was anything wrong with him, but when Pei Jiuniang, who was holding Yu Ge in her arms, looked at him disappointedly, he suddenly let go of her hand in panic and quickly chased after them.

Gu Xijue looked at Gu Tingzhi who had abandoned him, his childish face full of resentment.

Pei Jiuniang could have ignored it herself, but seeing the disappointment in Brother Yu's eyes, she couldn't help but get angry at Gu Tingzhi.

"I know what you want to say, he didn't do it, it was Brother Yu who misunderstood him, right?

But have you ever thought about it, if he didn't provoke Brother Yu, why would Brother Yu attack him?

Yes, I have no evidence and cannot easily believe Brother Yu’s one-sided statement, but isn’t it also one-sided?

Gu Tingzhi, we have been very good without you for the past five years, so if you can’t show partiality, don’t appear in front of us mother and son.”

Having said that, Pei Jiuniang ignored Gu Tingzhi's already ugly expression and continued.

"I'm already choosing a new academy for Brother Yu, and I think Baima Academy is a good one!"

"White Horse Academy? Not in Kyoto?"

Gu Tingzhi reacted, grabbed Pei Jiuniang's hand, moved closer, and asked in a grim tone, "What do you mean?"
