Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 181 What Are You Trying To Cover Up?

Hearing Gu Wan mention Huo Xizhou, Zhang Xingliang felt a little lost for some reason.But he still answered truthfully: "It was arranged by the young marshal."

"Young Marshal thought it was strange that the Marshal's car broke down on the road, so he asked Adjutant Zhang to stay in the open and let me protect the young lady and Mr. James in the dark. When I saw that the young master was going to take the young lady and Mr. James away , I felt that something was wrong, so I went to the garden ahead of time, and then found that the young master was hiding in the dark, so I knocked one out first, and changed into his clothes."

"Ah Liang, you did a great job." Gu Wan gave Zhang Xingliang affirmation without hesitation.

I don't know if it's because the person who praised him was Gu Wan, but Zhang Xingliang felt very satisfied and a little embarrassed.

"Young Madam is awsome, this is the job of my subordinates."

"Then... young lady, what should we do now?" Zhang Xingliang asked Gu Wan.

"Today's matter should be the idea of ​​the second wife and the third wife to Huo Mingkun. The second lady is very thoughtful and cautious enough. If she makes a fuss about her, she may break the situation in advance, then... three Ma'am!" Gu Wan stood up, looked back at James who was still lying on the bed, and said coldly: "Since Huo Mingkun wants to use this kind of nonsense to deal with me and Xizhou, then, We might as well treat him with his own way!"

Zhang Xingliang was stunned for a moment: "What does Young Madam mean?"

"What I mean is this..." Gu Wan lowered her voice, told Zhang Xingliang all her plans, and then asked Zhang Xingliang to prepare.

After half an hour.

Huo Mingkun walked towards the garden guest room with the students from the study abroad group, Huo Xizhou and Huo Ting who had just rushed back.

"I've already sent someone to ask. Mr. James has sobered up. Father, you can go to see him. It's just that many people in the study abroad group are going back, so we come here together to say goodbye." While walking, Huo Mingkun While talking to Huo Ting like this.

"Okay, Mr. James is a distinguished guest from the ocean. He is staying at home during this time. You have to help your fourth brother entertain him well." Huo Ting said.

Today, his car broke down on the road, and he encountered some troublesome things, so he had to go back to his home to call for help.

He thought that the person who came to help was Huo Mingkun's. After all, he didn't specify who to go, and he already knew about James' visit to Jiangcheng, and he also knew that Huo Xizhou was holding a banquet at home and couldn't leave.

Unexpectedly, the person who came to help was Huo Xizhou, and Huo Xizhou changed his habit of seldom explaining before, and directly said that he had received his order to come here, but the person who reported the letter was Huo Mingkun people.

After Huo Xizhou inspected the car, he said that half of the brake line of the car was neatly connected, and it was deliberately tightened. It was obvious that someone did it on purpose. Huo Xizhou felt that someone deliberately made such a thing, and he must be transferred. , and then there is some conspiracy against Gu Wan and James, and this person, Huo Xizhou must be Huo Mingkun.

But whether it's Huo Xizhou or Huo Mingkun, they are all his sons after all.It's not good for him to express his opinion right away, he just said to go back home sullenly.

Unexpectedly, Huo Mingkun came over as soon as he arrived at the door of the house. After some preparations, he took everyone to the garden room. Caring about things related to Horsey State is itself the biggest loophole.

—— Huo Ting was once again disappointed with the eldest son, but he still wanted to see with his own eyes what he was doing.I just hope that he didn't do anything unforgivable.

At this time, everyone had already walked outside the garden guest room. A soldier hurried forward and said anxiously, "Master, Young Master, Young Marshal, Mr. James and Mrs. Young Marshal..."

Huo Xizhou's eyes narrowed slightly: "What's wrong with Wanwan?" He turned his head and asked Huo Mingkun: "Brother, didn't you say that Wanwan has gone back to rest?"

"...Well, yes," Huo Mingkun said, "I asked someone to send the fourth sibling back, but I don't know what happened after that. If the fourth brother is in a hurry, why don't you go back to your yard first? "

The implication is that he doesn't know what happened after he sent someone to "send Gu Wan back".

"I'm afraid Gu Wan is not in his yard at all!" A familiar female voice remembered.

Everyone looked over in search of sound, and saw Gu Yuting, who was dressed thickly, turned out from behind the camellia tree next to him with Wei Chunxiang and Tian Huahua.

"Gu... Aunt Meng Qi, why are you here?" Huo Xizhou frowned: "If I remember correctly, my father has banned people from the Meng family from entering Huo's house, even if Meng Shuheng came here today It is also in the name of the students of the study abroad group, how did you three people from the inner house of the Meng Mansion get in?"

"Is my Huo's house a place where any cat or dog can come in if they want?"

"Xizhou, look what you're talking about," another person stood up, it was the second lady.

There was a gentle smile on her face: "Second Mrs. Meng Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Third and Mrs. Seven, I met when I was out shopping. They also missed their husband in the Huo Mansion, so they wanted to pick him up. , they are all women, and Mrs. Xiaoqi is still pregnant with Young Master Meng's child. I can't let them wait outside, so I let them rest in the backyard. But I didn't expect that when they arrived in the garden, they see……"

In the middle of speaking, the second lady stopped on purpose, with a look of panic that just made people suspicious, and then changed the subject: "However, I did decide this matter without authorization. Fortunately, Young Master Meng is here too, Commander-in-Chief Why don't I send them out of the mansion again?"

"Also, if you are here to find Mr. James, I think Mr. James has already fallen asleep, so you don't have to go in and disturb him."

Listen, what she said was so natural, faint, and meant to help cover up something.

But at this time, some strange voices suddenly came from the garden guest room.

It was a man speaking intermittently in a foreign language, and a woman shouted: "...help...help!"

With just one sound, Huo Xizhou's heart was put back into his stomach. How good his hearing is, even Huo Ting may not be clear enough, but James knows it. As long as he calms down and listens, he can distinguish the slightest sound. Whose voice is it clear - this is not the voice of James and Gu Wan.

So, the corner of his mouth curled up, and an inexplicable arc landed on the second lady with a sense of scrutiny and cool questioning: "Second lady, what is this voice?"
