"Aunt Fifth is looking for me?"

Gu Jinhe looked at Ye Pingting and asked.

Ye Pingting saw Gu Jinhe, stood up and said, "Jinhe, I came here because I heard that you brought Miss Liu to live with you at Gu's house?"

Gu Jinhe narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Aunt Fifth is well-informed. Shuya and I hit it off right away, and I wanted to spend more time with her, so I begged the old lady to agree to let Shuya live in the Rose Courtyard to keep me company."

Because of Liu Shuya's matter, Gu Jinhe openly disobeyed Gu Chenxiang's order and left the Gu family. Although he came back after only one day and one night, he left without his consent after all.

Therefore, Gu Jinhe's house arrest was extended to after the New Year's Eve.

Gu Jinhe had no objection to this. Anyway, there was nothing she needed to do outside recently, and Liu Shuya was going to live in Gu's house, so she had to accompany her.

Gu Jinhe looked at Ye Pingting and said calmly, "Why? Is there any grudge between Aunt Wu and the Liu family?"

Otherwise, why would he come to her at this time to ask about this matter specifically?

Ye Pingting's eyes flickered, and she smiled, "We are both from aristocratic families, so how could I have any grudge against the Liu family?"

"I just heard that the eldest daughter of the Liu family was suddenly hospitalized for some unknown reason, and I also heard that you brought the young lady of the Liu family to the Gu family, so I came here to ask out of curiosity."

"You also know that for this matter, I can't go to Qinglan Courtyard to ask the old lady and housekeeper Gu."

Gu Jinhe raised an eyebrow and said, "So Fifth Aunt didn't want to disturb the old lady and Butler Gu, so she came to ask me specifically?"

Ye Pingting frowned silently. Gu Jinhe's words were too direct, as if they contained thorns, making it difficult for her to maintain her facial expression.

Because of Gu Feiwan’s incident before, Ye Pingting really wanted to cut Gu Jinhe into pieces, but the matter was handled by the old lady, and she didn’t even have the power to intervene.

After Gu Chenliang's warning, Ye Pingting finally suppressed the resentful look on her face, but now Gu Jinhe's words made her feel hateful again.

It was all because of Gu Jinhe that her precious daughter went to prison, and she still doesn’t know what the situation is.

Ye Pingting asked Gu Chenliang to find out about the situation, but Gu Chenliang said that the matter was handled by the old lady, so he didn't ask too much. He just said that he had taken care of everything and would never let Gu Feiwan suffer any grievances.

Hearing this, Ye Bingting was disappointed. No matter how luxurious the room was, it could not compare to her own home!

Gu Feiwan was raised in luxury since childhood, how could he have ever suffered such injustice?

Whenever she thought that Gu Jinhe was the cause of all this, Ye Pingting had planned more than once how to get rid of Gu Jinhe as soon as possible.

But no matter how carefully she planned, Gu Jinhe still escaped in the end.

When Ye Pingting received the news that Gu Jinhe was going out, she was prepared to receive the good news that she would never come back.

But unexpectedly, after a night, the Gu family was peaceful and quiet, and no news about Gu Jinhe came from the outside world.

The most discussed topic outside right now is the sudden injury and hospitalization of the eldest daughter of the Liu family.

What she finally waited for was that Gu Jinhe took the still alive Liu Shuya to the Gu family to recuperate.

This was something Ye Pingting had never expected. She originally thought it would be a plan that would kill two birds with one stone.

Unexpectedly, Liu Shuya was injured and hospitalized, and almost couldn't wake up, but Gu Jinhe was not hurt at all.

Ye Pingting lowered her eyes slightly, and said with a sad tone: "In the Gu family, I have little contact with the sisters-in-law. I used to be able to talk to Fei Wan about my true feelings, but now..."

Ye Pingting paused as if wanting to say something but didn't continue.

Gu Jinhe seemed not to understand what she meant and asked, "So, Aunt Wu came here to talk to me?"

Ye Pingting choked, then smiled calmly and said, "I was indeed a little angry with you because of Fei Wan's matter before, but now that I think about it, it was all because Fei Wan hired someone to kidnap you that led to this result."

"Your fifth uncle has advised me that it is none of your business. I shouldn't be angry at you. It is Aunt Fifth who is wrong. Aunt Fifth apologizes to you. I hope you won't blame me, Jinhe."

Gu Jinhe narrowed his eyes. Is this a weasel paying a New Year's greeting to the chicken with ulterior motives?

Gu Feiwan was just not cautious enough and was a little impatient, so he left her with something to hold on to. However, Ye Pingting had been careful to maintain her outward weakness in the Gu family for many years, and rarely aroused anyone's vigilance or disgust.

But Gu Feiwan's eagerness almost destroyed Ye Pingting's years of caution, because people often think about what kind of person their children are, and most of the time, that's what their parents are like.

When Gu Feiwan hired someone to kidnap Gu Jinhe and the Gu family found out, how could no one think of Ye Pingting?

You will feel that her previous weakness was all pretended and that she has a hypocritical two-face.

Gu Jinhe did not comment: "You are the elder, and Sister Feiwan is your daughter. It is understandable that you are angry with me because of this. How can I blame you?"

Gu Jinhe guessed that Ye Pingting came here not because of Liu Shuya, but because she wanted to see if she had encountered any accidents during her outing.

But seeing that she was doing fine now, Ye Pingting knew that the plan had failed.

Ye Pingting lowered her eyes to hide the murderous intent in them. In her heart, she really hated Gu Jinhe's current cold and bright face.

This reminded her of Gu Chenjun and what he had said to her. When she woke up in the middle of the night, she gloated more than once. It was a good thing that he died!

Gu Jinhe looks very much like Gu Chenjun and Lu Yuan, so whenever she sees her appearance, she will subconsciously think of them.

Ye Pingting smiled and said, "I feel relieved when I hear what you said. As long as you don't blame me, your fifth uncle won't be angry with me. You don't know that because of the stupid things that Fei Wan did, your fifth uncle got very angry in Yikun Courtyard and ignored me for several days."

Gu Jinhe curved her lips and said, "Uncle Wu is just worried that Fei Wan will really do something irreversible, that's why he is so angry. Now Sister Fei Wan is no longer in the Gu family, Aunt Wu, if you have anything to say, you can come to me."

After all, she had to stay at Gu's house until after the New Year before she could go out. Since she couldn't go out, watching Ye Pingting's expression change was also a fun way to pass the time.

Ye Pingting would probably never think in her lifetime that she was just a fun way to pass the time in front of Gu Jinhe.

If he knew, he would probably want to raze the Rose Court to the ground.

When Ye Pingting heard Gu Jinhe's words, she smiled as if she was very happy and said, "Jinhe is such a considerate and good child."

Then she asked hesitantly, "I heard a piece of news, but I don't know if it's true."

Gu Jinhe: "You say."

Ye Pingting: "I heard that the biological father of the eldest daughter of the Liu family is dead?"

Gu Jinhe suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Ye Pingting with a somewhat subtle expression.
