Xia Ming narrowed his eyes as a cold light flashed across his pupils. He smiled as he walked towards Gu Ruoyun, "Lady Gu, my daughter had been immature and had offended you. I've already taught her a lesson. Please don't be calculative with a child, Lady Gu."
Gu Ruoyun lowered her eyelids, concealing the cold smile in her eyes.
It's been six years!
He still hasn't changed at all!
Once upon a time, this fake face had not only fooled the world, it had also fooled me for so many years! Even though Xia Ming had never liked his mother, he had always treated her, his own daughter, with affection.
However, all of this had changed after her grandfather's death!
Gu Ruoyun suppressed the murderous intent in her eyes and raised her head as if nothing had happened. She stared at Xia Ming's handsome face and smiled calmly, "I have an appointment with Mo Shangfei. I'm here to see him. I wonder if Mo Shangfei is around?"
"Oh?" A sense of suspicion flashed in Xia Ming's eyes, "He has just returned. I'll send someone to inform him. Lady Gu, may I ask who your master is?"
There does not seem to be a powerful family in the entire East Peak Mainland with the surname Gu. Since that was the case, her family's power must not be very powerful. Hence, Xia Ming wanted to find out more about her master!
Gu Ruoyun laughed icily, "What? Does the Gu family have a habit of investigating the family's background? "
"Hehe," Xia Ming laughed awkwardly as a cold light flashed in his eyes, "I was only asking. After all, Mo Shangfei is now a member of the Gu family. I must make sure to know who his friends are. Don't worry, Lady Gu, I have no ill intentions."
Gu Ruoyun swept her gaze towards Xia Ming and replied calmly, "I don't belong to any faction, I'm all alone."
Hearing this, Xia Ming heaved a sigh of relief. Since this woman does not have any backers, the rest would be much easier.
However, just as he was about to speak, he saw Mo Shangfei being led towards them by a servant. He then swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
Some matters should be handled behind the scenes, there was no need for him to bring them out in the open. Otherwise, it would not be worth it to destroy the Xia family's long-established reputation just to deal with this woman.
"Lady."
Mo Shangfei's eyes lit up when he saw Gu Ruoyun. He hurriedly rushed towards her with an excited look on his face, "You've really come."
"Mm," Gu Ruoyun nodded, "I've calculated your distance and you should be arriving today. That's why I've come to the Xia family home to look for you. This is what I've promised you before."
Actually, Mo Shangfei had been worried that Gu Ruoyun would go back on her word. He never thought that she would actually show up. This was out of his expectations. Although this girl and her sister were old acquaintances, they didn't know each other. There was no need for her to help a stranger.
"Shangfei, are you acquainted with Lady Gu?" Xia Ming raised his brows and swept his gaze towards Mo Shangfei.
Mo Shangfei nodded, "Yes, this young lady is my cousin's old acquaintance. That's how we know each other."
Xia Ming was stunned and looked at Gu Ruoyun again.
This woman knew his disobedient and unfilial daughter?
Since that's the case, I can't let her live!
Xia Ming took a deep breath at the thought of this and his handsome face lit up with a smile, "I see. I didn't think that Lady Gu would be acquainted with my poor daughter. Sigh, my poor daughter had passed away at such a young age while her enemy, the Holy Doctor Bai Zhongtian, is still free and unfettered!"
As he spoke, he wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and sighed. His face was filled with sorrow and pain.
