Chapter 4 Surprisingly
In the morning, people from the Li family had breakfast at the dinner table.
"Yuntong, it's good that you'll be back safely. You go to see Mrs. Yuan with Yuqing at noon. She got sick some time ago, and now she's just recovering from a serious illness. Bring some gifts." Mr. Li told his two daughters.
"Okay, dad." Li Yuntong responded with a smile, thinking about who Mrs. Yuan was.
After breakfast, Li Yuntong took her personal maid Caidie back to her room to rest.
"Caidie, who is Mrs. Yuan?" Li Yuntong asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"Mrs. Yuan's husband, Mr. Yuan, is an old acquaintance of the master. He has known each other for more than 20 years and has been in contact. More than 20 years ago, the master first came to Chang'an and made a fortune in business by borrowing money from Mr. Yuan, so the master has always been grateful to Mr. Yuan." Caidie introduced the relationship between Mrs. Yuan and the Li family.
"So there is such a story." Li Yuntong sighed with some understanding.
At noon, Li Yuntong, the eldest lady of the Li family, and Li Yuqing, came to Yuan Mansion with their own personal maids Caidie and Huan Pei, as well as the gifts they prepared.
The big pink lotus flowers in the lotus pond in the Yuan Mansion were blooming beautifully. The slender willow branches beside the lotus pond hung softly to the ground, swaying in the wind, graceful. Li Yuntong and Li Yuqing walked through this beautiful corner under the guidance of the servants of the Yuan Mansion, and then they came to Mrs. Yuan's room.
"Mrs. Yuan, are you getting better? We sisters come to see you. I hope you can recover soon." Li Yuntong said to Mrs. Yuan lying on the bed.
"My health is much better. I must keep you at my house for dinner. But I can't have a good time playing with you sisters this afternoon. It just so happens that my nephew is at my house now, so I let my son and nephew play with you. You young people must be able to play together." Mrs. Yuan said with a smile in a sick and weak voice.
"We must stay for dinner, so you can rest for a lifetime." Li Yuqing responded with a smile.
Li Yuntong and Li Yuqing left Mrs. Yuan's room and were taken to the pavilion next to the lotus pond by the servants of the Yuan family to rest.
"Two ladies, I'll call Mr. Yuan and Mrs. Yuan's nephew to come and play with you." After saying that, the servant of the Yuan family left.
"Sister, I don't know who this Mrs. Yuan's nephew is. I heard from my mother that he is a talent who is both literary and martial. As for Mr. Yuan, we have seen him several times. He looks pretty good and treats people enthusiastically." Li Yuqing said enthusiastically, with an expectant look on his face.
"When they come, let's see how good they are." Li Yuntong said calmly.
Not long after, Li Yuntong saw two tall, handsome and elegant young men walking towards them. Li Yuntong found a familiar face and blurted out happily: "You are Gu Changyu, Gu Young Master. It turns out that Mrs. Yuan is your aunt."
"You are Li Yuntong, Miss Li." Gu Changyu also recognized Li Yuntong.
"Cousin, you know each other." Yuan Zhiyuan, who was standing beside him, responded.
"Yeah." Gu Changyu said with a smile.
"Sister, you know each other." Li Yuqing said in confusion.
"The last time I was robbed by a robber, I was rescued by this young master Gu." Li Yuntong introduced the two of them.
"So it's him." Li Yuqing suddenly realized.
Then the four of them sat on the stone stool in the pavilion, began to chat and laugh, drink tea and eat fruits.
"The two ladies of the Li family have become more graceful in the past two years." Yuan Zhiyuan praised.
"You two brothers are also a handsome guy now." Li Yuntong also praised each other.
"Let's stop praising each other. It's great to go out on the street. The street is so lively." Yuan Zhiyuan suggested excitedly.
"Okay, I want to go out for a walk, too." Li Yuntong agreed.
Everyone agreed with the idea, so the four of them came to the bustling street.
There were people coming and going on the street, and the hawking sounds of hawkers buying things flowed in the air. Suddenly, several galloping horses drove past Li Yuntong, and the streets were already in chaos, and the crowds dispersed to give way to the running horses.
Li Yuntong was dragged to the horse by a masked man on a horse and drove forward with a whip. Gu Changyu saw Li Yuntong being taken away by a group of mysterious figures riding on horses, leaving behind horses flying smoke and dust. Gu Changyu followed closely, and he successfully jumped to one of the horses, pulled down the horse, and drove the horse, always following the group of people who didn't know where to take Li Yuntong to.
When he arrived at a deserted place, the masked man holding Li Yuntong stopped the galloping horse and dragged Li Yuntong off the horse. Gu Changyu also stopped the horse and shouted sternly: "Who are you? In broad daylight, he dared to force the girl."
"Our target is not this woman." The masked man shouted meaningfully.
"Then your target is me?" Gu Changyu asked slowly.
"Yes, it's you, Gu Changyu." The masked man said affirmatively.
"What? What's the relationship between me and you? Do you want to capture me alive or kill me?" Gu Changyu asked calmly.
"We are killers, so we will naturally take your life." The masked man explained.
"That means someone bribed you to take my life." Gu Changyu analyzed.
"Yes, you have brought you to this remote place. You are alone again, so you must not be our opponent." The masked man said confidently.
The group of killers rushed to Gu Changyu, surrounded Gu Changyu, and showed off his weapons to work together to deal with Gu Changyu. Although Gu Changyu fought alone, he was also very skilled. Although he was one-to-many, he also fought the enemy and fled in panic.
Although Gu Changyu won, he unfortunately got a knife from the enemy in his arm. Li Yuntong quickly bandaged Gu Changyu's wound with the cloth torn from his clothes, and then the two of them returned to the way they came together.
"Miss Li, this time I have implicated you." Gu Changyu said apologetically.
"Actually, you saved me. Mr. Gu, let's go to the tree next to you to rest for a while." After Li Yuntong finished speaking, he and Gu Changyu walked towards the big tree next to him.
They came to this big tree, then lay on the ground, resting against the big tree.
When Li Yuntong saw beads of sweat the size of beans appearing on Gu Changyu's forehead, she took out her handkerchief to wipe the sweat on Gu Changyu's forehead. Suddenly, Li Yuntong's eyes touched Gu Changyu's gaze. Li Yuntong blushed a little inexplicably, and her heartbeat was beating. She quickly explained: "Your forehead is full of sweat, I'll wipe it off for you."
"Thank you, Miss Li." Gu Changyu smiled softly.
"Let's continue on the road. Come on, I'll help you up." Li Yuntong said, gently supporting Gu Changyu.
The two began to walk forward again.
After a while, there were sounds of horses galloping from afar. Li Yuntong saw a group of people coming towards them.
"It's my own person." Gu Changyu said confidently at the person coming from the opposite side.
"Young Master, are you okay? Are you injured in your arm?" Wang Yuanfei, the leader of Gu Changyu's subordinates, asked with concern. It turned out that the pair of people who came from were Gu Changyu's subordinates.
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury." Gu Changyu responded.
"When we heard the news that you were chasing Miss Li's men, we hurried to find your whereabouts. Fortunately, you are fine." Wang Yuanfei said with confidence, and felt relieved when he saw that his master was fine.
"Let's go back, don't worry my aunt." Gu Changyu led everyone to set off.
After that, Li Yuntong and Gu Changyu returned to Mrs. Yuan's house safely.
"Changyu, are you okay? Oh, your arm is injured. Sit down quickly and you must rest well." As soon as Mrs. Yuan saw Gu Changyu coming back, she ran over and said.
"Auntie, I'm fine, don't worry, I'm in a strong state." Gu Changyu said with a smile.
"The supper is ready now, let's have supper." Yuan Zhiyuan announced to everyone.
So Li Yuntong and sister Li Yuqing, brother Gu Changyu and Yuan Zhiyuan, as well as Mr. Yuan and Mrs. Yuan and his wife gathered at the dinner table and started having supper.
"This time my cousin and Miss Li were really shocked and safe." Yuan Zhiyuan concluded.
"Fortunately, your cousin is good." Li Yuntong witnessed this battle with her own eyes and knew Gu Changyu's good skills.
"Sister, who are those who caught you?" Li Yuqing asked in confusion.
"Killer." Li Yuntong said these two words without hesitation. When he thought that the killer's target was Gu Changyu, he felt a little worried and panic in his heart.
"The original target of the killer is me, I don't know who bribed me and hired me to kill me." Gu Changyu said softly with a frown slightly.
"Changyu, you must be more careful when you go out and let your subordinates protect you secretly." Mrs. Yuan reminded worriedly.
"Yes, since someone wants to kill me, I will be more careful and be more careful." Gu Changyu said with a calm smile.
After dinner, Li Yuntong and Li Yuqing said goodbye and left Yuan’s mansion and returned to Li’s mansion.
"Miss, you are in danger this time. You are so lucky and lucky." Caidie sighed after Li Yuntong returned to her boudoir.
"It's just that Mr. Gu is injured. I hope he will get better as soon as possible." Li Yuntong couldn't help but say worriedly.
"Miss, Mr. Gu is just a minor injury and will heal soon. You have a good rest, it's getting late." Caidie finished speaking and served Li Yuntong to sleep.
