Mu Ling 'er was pregnant!
The news from Northern Li was that Mu Ling 'er was pregnant.
Gu crawled up from the ground and asked in disbelief, "Whose seed is it?"
Didn't Mu Ling 'er revolve around him all the time? She even talked about Qi Brother and Qi Brother every day. How could she change her mind so quickly and get together with someone else?
Wasn't this too fast?
When Gu asked this, Han Yunxi, Long Fei Ye, Gu Beiyue and the rest all looked at him with strange expressions.
Gu looked at them in bewilderment. He didn't know what was going on, but he suddenly panicked.
"Why … Why are you all looking at me?" he asked timidly.
Everyone didn't say anything and just stared at him. The more silent everyone was, the more flustered Gu became. "Poison Girl, say something."
Han Yunxi didn't say anything, but she slowly narrowed her eyes and a murderous aura gradually appeared. Everyone else's expressions also changed. Long Fei Ye looked disdainful, Gu Beiyue frowned and looked serious. Tang Li was sneering, Xu Donglin's face was tense, and he kept shaking his head. Baili Mingxiang's brows were furrowed and she was very angry.
Gu instinctively took a step back and leaned against the wall. The uneasiness in his heart grew. He didn't ask any more questions and turned to leave.
At this moment, Han Yunxi finally spoke and asked angrily, "Gu, you … You … When did this happen? Tell me!"
"Me?" Gu still didn't understand.
"Gu, Ling 'er likes you very much, but you can't do this. You don't have a status, and you actually … How can you do this! "Baili Mingxiang, who had always been quiet, couldn't take it anymore and shouted angrily.
"Bastard!" Tang Li threw these two words over.
Long Fei Ye didn't say anything and just snorted softly.
Gu Qishao still didn't understand what these people meant. He couldn't figure it out. What did he do?
He looked at Han Yunxi and couldn't bear to be fierce to her. He vented his anger on Baili Mingxiang and Tang Li and asked angrily, "What do you two mean? Say it clearly! What did I do? What does her pregnancy have to do with me? How am I a bastard?
Tang Li rushed over and grabbed Gu Qishao by the collar. "You don't have the guts to admit what you did?" Gu, are you a man? The child in Mu Ling 'er's stomach is yours! They're threatening you with your child, and you still refuse to admit it? Are you a coward? Don't tell others we know each other! "
When he said this, he was Over Gu was completely. He allowed Tang Li to grab him by the collar without moving a muscle.
Although everyone had clearly scolded him just now, he really hadn't thought of it that way. He thought they had misunderstood how he'd caused Mu Ling 'er to be bullied and pregnant.
How could he … How could he have done such a thing?
"F * ck!"
Gu came back to his senses and pushed Tang Li away. He looked at everyone angrily. "What kind of person do you think I, Gu, am?"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Gu's reaction shouldn't be an act. Given his temper, he wouldn't dare to deny what he'd done.
However, the news from Northern Li was that Mu Ling 'er was pregnant with Gu's child and wanted to threaten Gu to hand over a large number of medicinal ingredients.
Jun Yi Xie didn't appear directly. The one who sent the letter to Pill Fiend Pharmacy was a rather famous pharmacy in Northern Li. The pharmacy was called Yangxin Pharmacy, and its owner was surnamed Yu, Yu Kebing.
Jun Yi Xie probably didn't know that Han Yunxi already knew about Mu Ling 'er and Ning Jing's whereabouts, so he went around in circles and asked Yu Kebing to come forward.
The threatening letter clearly stated that Mu Ling 'er was pregnant for almost five months. Mu Ling' er claimed that the child was Gu's. Yu Kebing asked Pill Fiend Pharmacy to send ten dan of each of eight medicinal ingredients to the border. He would send someone to pick them up. If they didn't arrive within ten days, whether Mu Ling 'er could keep the child in her stomach would depend on luck.
When Han Yunxi and the others saw the letter, they didn't believe it at first. However, when they thought about it carefully, there was no reason to not believe it!
No one in Northern Li knew about the relationship between Mu Ling 'er and Gu. Even if someone knew that Mu Ling' er liked Gu, they wouldn't use such a thing to threaten Gu!
Whether it was true or not, Gu knew best, didn't he?
In short, the matter of the pregnancy and whose child it was couldn't be faked!
Therefore, there was only one reason why Northern Li would send such a threatening letter: Mu Ling 'er was really pregnant and had admitted that the child was Gu's.
Ning Cheng's previous letter didn't mention Mu Ling 'er's pregnancy. Did Ning Cheng think that they knew about it or had forgotten?
"Mu Ling 'er said it herself, and you still want to go back on your word? Gu, I didn't expect you to be such a person! "Tang Li sneered.
Gu's anger rose to the doorway. When he was about to refute, Baili Mingxiang said, "Gu, would Ling 'er go back on her word? If it wasn't true, why would she go back on her word and ruin her reputation? "
"Mu Ling 'er wouldn't do such a thing, and there's no reason for her to do so! She's just looking for trouble for no reason! "Han Yunxi also spoke up, feeling sorry for her sister.
"I … I … She … She …"
Gu had a lot of words to refute, but when he heard their doubts, he couldn't say anything.
"Gu Qishao, tell me clearly. Just what's going on? You … When did you … How … "
Why was Ling 'er so muddle-headed? She clearly knew that Gu wasn't sincere to her, so why was she willing … Han Yunxi found it hard to speak.
Gu was at a loss for words. He looked at Han Yunxi seriously and asked, "Poison Girl, do you really think I'm that kind of person?"
"I just want to know what's going on. Would Mu Ling 'er slander you? If you really liked Ling 'er, why didn't you marry her first? You're ruining her reputation and bullying her! "Han Yunxi retorted.
Gu suddenly roared, "I'm not that kind of person! If I really liked her, even if I didn't marry her, even if I didn't have a proper status, I'd still want her and get her pregnant! "
When he said this, everyone fell silent. Han Yunxi was stunned. For a moment, she didn't understand what Gu Qishao meant.
Actually, not only Han Yunxi, but everyone else also didn't understand.
Gu said again, "I don't even like her, so why would I sleep with her!"
When he said this, the crowd suddenly fell silent.
Everyone was angry about the issue of reputation, but it turned out that this guy didn't care about a woman's reputation at all. His focus was on whether he liked her or not.
Han Yunxi was stunned. She looked at Gu blankly and couldn't say anything for a long time.
"At the end of the day, you're still an animal!" Tang Li scolded.
"That's too much!" Baili Mingxiang couldn't understand Gu's logic at all.
Gu Beiyue was already shaking his head, while Long Feiye was narrowing his eyes as he pondered over Gu Qishao's words. Without a sound, he pulled Han Yunxi behind him to protect her.
Everyone fell silent. Gu said angrily, "Where's the blackmail letter? Let me take a look."
Han Yunxi was about to hand it over when Long Fei Ye took it and threw it to Gu.
Gu skimmed through the blackmail letter, put it in his pocket, and was about to leave. Long Fei Ye finally said, "Where are you going?"
Gu was furious. "To look for the child's mother!"
"You're not allowed to go anywhere before this matter is cleared up!" Long Fei Ye said.
"You think I won't go just because you told me not to?" Gu asked in disdain.
"Go ahead and try!" Long Fei Ye threatened.
"If I don't go, then …"
Before Gu could finish speaking, he saw the threatening look in Long Fei Ye's eyes and suddenly stopped.
Tang Li was so impulsive earlier that even Long Fei Ye didn't let him go. How could Gu do the same?
"What are you going to do?" Long Fei Ye asked word by word.
Gu narrowed his eyes and met his gaze. The atmosphere between the two instantly became tense. However, Gu quickly turned his head away and snorted. "Nothing! I'm going to sleep. Remember to clear my name after you figure it out! "
It had to be said that Gu had a face that could topple cities and countries. He didn't feel out of place when he said the vulgar word "I" every day. Instead, he had an indescribable manly charm.
He leaped onto the roof and continued to lie on his back, basking in the sun as if the argument had never happened.
Everyone looked up at the roof, but they couldn't do anything about him.
"Xu Donglin, come with me to Myriad Merchant Hall. We have to get to the bottom of this immediately," Han Yunxi said seriously.
Whether this was true or not, they would know once they asked Ning Cheng.
Everyone dispersed, but Long Fei Ye was still looking at the roof. Gu basked in the warm winter sun, feeling warm and lazy. However, for some reason, he felt an inexplicable chill.
He sat down and looked down, only to see Long Feiye's face as cold as Millennium Xuan Ice.
"You, come down," Long Fei Ye said.
"You, come up." Gu was on guard.
"Are you coming down?" Long Fei Ye asked again.
"Are you coming up?" Gu didn't give Long Fei Ye time to answer. He hurriedly said, "If you're not coming up, I'll pull you down!"
He was about to leave when Long Fei Ye flew up and landed in front of him.
Gu hurriedly retreated. "I'll go down! I'll go down, okay? "
Gu immediately flew down and fled out the door. Unfortunately, just as he reached the door, Long Fei Ye landed at the door and stopped him.
"Stay away from Han Yunxi!" Long Fei Ye warned coldly.
So speaking, she brushed past Gu Qishao's shoulder, leaving him alone with a complicated expression.
Gu seemed to have just realized what he had said in his impulsiveness. He scratched his forehead and rubbed his nose, gradually feeling uneasy. How would Poison Girl look at him from now on?
In the following days, Gu was very depressed. When everyone saw him, they looked at him with disdain. He didn't care at all. However, every time he saw Han Yunxi, he didn't dare to look into her eyes.
Actually, what he said that day wasn't wrong. He was just like that.
However, his behavior, his temper, and his principles were all ineffective when it came to Han Yunxi.
Soon, Ning Cheng's reply came from Myriad Merchant Hall. The truth was revealed.
It turned out that Mu Ling 'er had pretended to be pregnant to cover for Ning Jing, and had found Gu to take the blame.
