Chapter 241 Mr. Xu

Gu Fei fell to the ground and watched Butler Wu being surrounded by several boys and entering through a small door in the backyard of Prince Qi's Mansion.

She got up from the ground and looked at the palm of her left hand. The skin was scratched and covered with sand and dust. It was black and red.

She walked back with a sullen face. She really didn't expect that Butler Wu would be so difficult to deal with.

 Listen to what he means, if you don’t close the door this morning, he will take action in the afternoon?

What is he going to do?

Gu Fei quickened his pace and walked for almost half an hour before returning to the inn.

As I walked to the door, a carriage stopped.

A handsome young man came out of the car. Gu Fei was slightly startled. It was Su Chen!

Su Chen also saw Gu Fei, his eyes were filled with surprise that could not be concealed, "Little - Miss Gu -"

Gu Fei smiled slightly and said to him, "Mr. Su."

 At this time, another young man got out of the car.

The man's eyes lit up when he looked at Gu Fei, "It turns out the girl's surname is Gu."

Gu Fei glanced at this man, he looked familiar. He thought about it carefully, wasn't this the young man who picked up Lanzhi's handkerchief on the night of the Lantern Festival?

Mr. Su pointed to the man and said, "This is my classmate in the academy, Mr. Xu."

 “Have you ever seen it?”

Mr. Xu held a folding fan in his hand, patted it gently, and said with a smile: "I was lucky enough to meet Miss Gu on the street during the Lantern Festival."

As he was talking, Lian'er came out and was shocked when she saw Gu Fei, "Miss, where did you fall?"

 As she spoke, she patted the dust on Gu Fei's skirt.

He patted Lian'er and whispered, "Ah, miss, your hands are broken!"

Su Chen then saw that Gu Fei's left hand was covered with dust and mixed with blood. His heart couldn't help but twitched, and he hurriedly called Lian'er, "Hurry and help your lady in."

Lian'er really stretched out her hand to help her. Gu Fei smiled and said, "No need to help. Just go get a basin of water and I'll wash my hands." After saying that, she walked into the house, and Lian'er ran to fetch water.

Lanzhi was craning her neck behind the counter and looking out the door. When she heard that Gu Fei had hurt her hand, she quickly put down her embroidered quilt, ran out, grabbed Gu Fei's hand and pulled her to sit down, "Ah, why did you fall like this?" Oh, where have you been this early in the morning?"

Mr. Xu saw Lanzhi at the side, and a surprised smile suddenly appeared on his face, "It turns out that the girl is here too."

Langhi looked at him inexplicably.

Seeing that Lanzhi looked like she didn't recognize him at all, Mr. Xu threw away the folding fan in his hand and said, "Don't you remember, girl? I picked up the girl's handkerchief on the Lantern Festival."

Lanzhi then remembered and turned her back slightly to Mr. Xu and stopped talking.

Lian'er fetched water, Gu Fei washed her hands, and Lanzhi took a needle from her lapel and picked out the sand embedded in her skin.

Su Chen watched from the side, and his heart trembled every time Lanzhi picked the needle in his hand.

 When he finished picking up the sand, he let out a long breath involuntarily.

Lian'er brought ointment and clean cloth strips, and Lanzhi carefully wrapped them for Gu Fei.

Mr. Xu seemed to be crazy, his eyes were fixed on Lanzhi's face for a moment.

Lanzhi wrapped Gu Fei's hand, raised her head, and suddenly caught Mr. Xu's gaze. Her face turned slightly red, she thought of something, and looked a little annoyed. She got up and went to the counter to embroider a handkerchief.

Mr. Xu made no secret of it, and his eyes still followed Lanzhi.

Gu Fei could not even pretend not to see it. Mr. Xu’s gaze was too revealing. She frowned slightly and coughed lightly: "Mr. Xu!"
