Chapter 480: A Small Box
The scenery in front of him was completely different. The Xin family was indeed extremely extravagant. No wonder the Emperor wanted to destroy it.
As she admired the surrounding scenery, she spoke to Xue Rong. “Some people have black hearts. When they want me to help them, their attitude is so kind. They say that after everything is over, they will let me choose whatever I want. In the end, after using me, they turn around and pretend not to know me. They even say that I didn’t make a sound and they didn’t recognize me. It seems that the people I work with are blind and deaf…”
Xue Rong silently glanced at Fourth Brother, who was walking in front. The man’s back was tense.
However, he was secretly complaining in his heart. Why was Miss Gu’s gaze so sharp? Previously, she had only seen him once in the small courtyard. She had not even spoken to him. Not only did she recognize him at a glance, but she also knew his ranking. She was simply unbelievable.
Gu Yundong continued, “I’ve been thinking about it. I’m not familiar with certain people, and I don’t know their character. Will they renege on their debt? That’s why I came over early when I heard about what happened here. As expected, they actually pretended not to know me. Heh, that’s amazing. Xue Rong, don’t do this. You’ll be beaten up easily if you do.”
Fourth Brother finally could not stand it anymore. He quickly turned his head and smiled. “Miss Gu, I was wrong. I promise there won’t be a next time. Why don’t you hit me twice to vent your anger?”
“No need. Just tell me where the storeroom is. I’ll leave after taking what belongs to me.” Gu Yundong snorted.
Fourth Brother’s expression froze, and his footsteps finally quickened.
When he arrived at the door of the warehouse, he saw Mo Xulin standing outside and talking to a young man.
Mo Xulin was stunned for a moment when he saw Gu Yundong. The Fourth Brother quickly whispered into his ear.
Mo Xulin’s forehead darkened and he almost hit him. “How could you…” They did not intend to go back on their word. They just wanted to organize the stuff first and take what should be taken away. They would let Gu Yundong choose the rest.
However, Fourth Brother had been seen by others and deliberately turned a blind eye to her. Now, even if he didn’t have the intention, others would think that he had gone back on his word.
He glared at his fourth son, took a few steps forward and said to Gu Yundong, “Miss Gu is here.”
“Yes,” Gu Yundong replied coldly.
Mo Xulin said, “The storeroom is being tidied up. Miss Gu, please go in, but…” He paused and lowered his voice. “After this confiscation, all the properties belong to the imperial court. There are some things that the emperor has required, so…”
Gu Yundong snorted. She knew that there was a prerequisite for her privilege to choose.
“Alright, I know. I know what I’m doing.”
Mo Xulin heaved a sigh of relief and called out to Fourth Brother, “Prepare a box for Miss.”
Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows. After a while, she saw Fourth Brother carrying a box over. It was a small box that was 4.0 centimeters long, 20 centimeters wide, and 30 centimeters tall.
So, she could only take an entire small box of things, right?
Tsk, they had really underestimated her.
If you have the ability, come and carry an even smaller box.
Gu Yundong took the small box and led Xue Rong into the storeroom with her head held high.
The young man who was talking to Mo Xulin looked on in surprise. Where did this lady come from? Lord Mo was actually so polite to her. He even heard a hint of flattery.
He wanted to ask, “Lord Mo, may I know which family’s daughter she is?”
Mo Xulin said, “Her surname is Gu.” He was unwilling to say anything else.
On the other hand, when Fourth Brother saw him, he thought of Miss Duan at the door and immediately mentioned it.
Duan Qian had a headache. He apologized to Mo Xulin and hurried to the door.
