Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 358 Desperate Cry

She knew that the three siblings might have something to say to each other, so she went out with General Gu, leaving them some space.

When going out, Gu Qingyuan also closed the door.

When Lu Rui heard the sound of the door closing, his heart trembled.

But when he looked again, Gu Qingyuan was no longer in the house.

Bai Xuan said to Lu Rui, "Royal brother, it was the Empress who sent you away, but now she has been imprisoned by our father."

Lu Rui replied absentmindedly, "Yeah."

He is now worried that Gu Qingyuan will abandon him.

Bai Xuan and Bai Shao surrounded him and talked to him, but Lu Rui's eyes were always looking towards the door intentionally or unintentionally.

"Brother, are you looking at the Empress Dowager?" Bai Xuan asked him with a smile.

After being exposed, Lu Rui blushed and nodded.

"In fact, we were able to find you today thanks to the Emperor's sister-in-law!"

"Yes, we went shopping, but forgot to bring money, so the Empress Dowager paid for us."

Lu Rui murmured, "My wife has always been a very good person."

Otherwise, she wouldn't have spent money to bring herself back to the Gu family when so many people disliked him and were unwilling to buy him back.

After arriving at Gu's house, she hired a doctor to treat her leg.

The door opened, and Gu Qingyuan and General Gu were standing in the yard. Seeing them come out, Gu Qingyuan asked, "Are you done talking?"

"We're done talking, we have to go back to find our fifth sister."

Bai Xuan said as she looked at Lu Rui.

It seemed as if she was asking him if he wanted to go back with them first.

"Then I'll send the two princesses back to Sifang Pavilion." Gu Qingyuan suggested.

"it is good."

Bai Xuan nodded. Since she now knew the whereabouts of her royal brother, it wouldn't be too late to bring her fifth sister over tomorrow.

Gu Qingyuan sent them back to Sifang Pavilion, and on the way back, she also gave them a lot of snacks from home.

After they returned, Bai Mo was already waiting for them in Sifang Pavilion.

Her face was very dark. She didn't expect that these two girls would sneak out while she was just out.

What if something happens to them in this foreign place?

Bai Xuan and Bai Shao returned to Sifang Pavilion with food, and saw Bai Mo as soon as they got back.

"Fifth sister, fifth sister!"

However, Bai Mo gave them a glare, and the two of them just stood there.

"Where have you two been today?"

Bai Mo's oppressive voice came.

Bai Xuan and Bai Shao looked at each other and said, "We went out for a walk today."

Seeing Bai Mo was about to lose her temper, the two of them said before she could do so: "Fifth sister, don't be angry first. Let me tell you, we met the emperor brother we were looking for today!"

Bai Mo wanted to scold them but swallowed it back. She asked doubtfully, "Are you two lying to me?"

"We definitely didn't lie to you! The person who just sent us back is our sister-in-law."

Bai Mo was silent for a moment, then asked them, "Are you two really not lying to me?"

Bai Xuan became anxious and called the guards who came out with them over to testify.

"Tell me, did we meet our royal brother today?"

The guard looked at Bai Mo and said carefully, "The Eighth Princess and the Ninth Princess did see someone who looked like a prince today."

He chose words carefully and did not dare to say yes directly, so he could only use "like".

After all, he couldn't be completely sure that the man was the prince.

This matter is of great importance and still requires confirmation from the Fifth Princess herself.

"Then tomorrow, I'll go over there with you guys to take a look."

......

Drunk in the Red Mansion.

The madam saw Qingluan coming back in the Gu family's carriage and looked back again and again.

"You came back by yourself?" he asked with a gloomy face.

"……Yes."

The madam was furious at her lack of fighting spirit and said, "Young Master Gu brought you back yesterday, didn't you know how to fight for it?"

Qingluan defended herself: "I fainted last night, and Young Master Gu's husband was present, so I couldn't do anything."

The madam snorted coldly and said, "I think you're useless. Now that you're back, it proves that Young Master Gu doesn't care about you. You can start accepting customers from today."

Qingluan's face turned pale immediately, and she shook her head desperately, "I don't want it!"

"That's not up to you."

The madam practically dragged him inside.

"Wu Yan, go clean him up."

Then, the man who took care of Qingluan came out and took Qingluan inside.

Returning to his room, Qingluan tightly grasped Wuyan's arm and said, "Can you help me ask the boss for help?"

He felt like the sky was falling when he thought about having to entertain customers.

If his body was really touched by other people, then there would be no possibility for him and Young Master Gu.

Wu Yan was a little embarrassed. "Top Brand, I am just someone who follows the boss's orders. Please don't make things difficult for me."

Qingluan felt dead silent.

He looked at the person in the mirror. It was still the same beautiful face, but the light in her eyes was gone.

He touched his face with trembling hands, then pulled out the hairpin on his head.

The head of the hairpin was very sharp. Qingluan scratched her face in the mirror without mercy.

Suddenly, bright red blood flowed down his face.

Wu Yan exclaimed: "Top star, what are you doing?"

How many people wanted to see the face under the veil of the top performer, but he actually cut his face with a hairpin, and the wound was as long as a finger.

Qingluan smiled sadly, "Wuyan, I have no way out."

He seemed to feel no pain and let the wound continue to bleed.

Seeing that he was about to raise the hairpin to scratch his face again, Wuyan quickly snatched the hairpin from his hand and ran out to find the boss.

When the madam heard that Qingluan had cut her face, she was so angry that she walked in and slapped him.

"I've raised you for so long, what are you doing?"

Qingluan tilted her head to one side with a sad smile.

"I don't want to accept customers. If that happens, I would rather die."

"Good! You're quite courageous!"

The madam was almost laughing with anger. "I want to see how tough you are. Wuyan, you come out with me. From today on, you are not allowed to bring him any food."

After saying that, he took Wuyan out and locked the doors and windows.

Qingluan sat in front of the mirror, looking at her injured face coldly.

It was this face that caused him to be called a vixen at home, and his father was even worried that he would seduce his mother.

Others looked down on him even more, thinking that he must have slept with countless women just because of his face.

But the most intimate thing he had ever done with a woman was that Gu Qingyuan carried him back.

His hands were shaking and he covered his face with his hands and sobbed softly.

That voice was filled with despair.
