Chapter 272 Not for Food
Chapter 272 Not for Food
Xu Fan was dreaming of being in charge of the Gu family in the future. He turned over in bed and continued to sleep, drooling from the corners of his mouth.
But at this moment, his door was suddenly opened.
Xu Fan suddenly woke up from his sleep and was shocked.
He looked towards the door and saw Gu Qingyuan.
"Hey cousin, why are you in my room so early in the morning?"
Gu Qingyuan said coldly: "Pack your things today, and you don't need to come to my place anymore."
Xu Fan, who hadn't fully reacted yet, looked confused. So, she came here early in the morning just to tell him this?
Seeing that he didn't move, Gu Qingyuan repeated that he would send him back.
Xu Fan finally understood now, and crawled to her side and knelt at her feet.
"Cousin! My dear cousin, I have no other relatives. Are you going to drive me away too? Is there any justice in this world?"
Gu Qingyuan took a step back and freed her legs from his grasp. "Your misery was not caused by me, so why should I bear the consequences?"
"But considering that you and I are cousins, I will take back your old house for you, and you can live there."
When Xu Fan heard her say that she wanted to take the house back, his eyes dodged for a moment and he wiped his tears and pretended to be pitiful.
"Cousin, is that so intolerant of me? I'm going to go find my aunt. She won't be as heartless as you."
Gu Qingyuan sneered, "If I remember correctly, my mother came to the capital alone. Her so-called family didn't provide her with any financial support. Before my mother became General Gu, where were you, her so-called relatives?"
She knew something about her mother's situation.
"Before my mother came to the capital, the other members of the Gu family said that she had all the strength but couldn't even find a husband, and that our family was extremely poor. Even our original land was divided up."
"But now, we don't care. If you don't want to make things too awkward, I advise you to pack your things quickly so we can part ways amicably."
Xu Fan wiped his tears and tried to make Gu Qingyuan change her mind.
"Cousin, you can't chase me away! Then people will say that you can't even tolerate your own cousin. You don't want to ruin the Gu family's reputation because of this, right?"
Gu Qingyuan continued indifferently, "You also said that he's just a cousin. My house is small and can't accommodate a big Buddha like you. Also, before you leave, remember to leave other people's things behind. Otherwise, I'll report it to the police and say there's a thief in the house."
Xu Fan's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect that his cousin knew about him secretly taking other people's things after only being back for one day.
He laughed dryly: "I don't understand what my cousin is talking about."
Gu Qingyuan stretched out a finger and said, "I'll give you one hour. If you don't leave when the time is up, I'll have someone take you away."
Xu Fan quickly got up from the ground, complaining in his heart.
After Xu Fan's problem was resolved, Gu Qingyuan left his house.
An hour later, Xu Fan returned with a package that was bigger than his body.
Gu Qingyuan couldn't help but frown.
"You have so many things?"
Xu Fan nodded and said, "Yes, and my cousin also prepared some for me."
Forget it, the Gu family can afford this little money, so Gu Qingyuan waved his hand and let him leave.
……
"By the way, has the young master Ling, who the young master brought back, not prepared clothes yet?"
Ji Mingzhao asked Xiaohan.
If he saw correctly, the clothes that person was wearing did not seem to be his, but Wen Shubai's.
Xiaohan replied: "It seems so. I heard that he stayed in the house the whole time and never came out."
"Maybe he just arrived at the Gu family and is a little scared."
Ji Mingzhao asked Xiaohan to pack two pieces of clothes that he had not worn yet, as well as some other things he needed, and planned to go over to see Lingyu.
The two of them brought the things to the door of Lingyu's room.
Ling Yu didn't dare to open the door directly. She leaned over and looked through the crack of the door, and saw two completely unfamiliar men.
He became even more frightened and asked, "Who...who are you? What are you doing here?"
Ji Mingzhao said gently, "Master Ling, don't be afraid. We have no ill intentions. We are here to bring you something."
Ling Yu then slowly opened the door and saw the clothes in Ji Mingzhao's hand, as well as some things he had never seen before.
"This is?"
He pointed to a box of lip balm and asked curiously.
"This is applied on the lips to make the complexion look better."
As they spoke, Ji Mingzhao and Xiaohan came into the house with the things.
"You don't have to be afraid of us, we won't hurt you." Ji Mingzhao said to Ling Yu in a more gentle tone.
Lingyu: "Oh, I'm not scared."
Ji Mingzhao was helpless, "Then there's no need for you to crawl under the table, right?"
As soon as they entered the room, this Young Master Ling crawled directly under the table and covered himself with the tablecloth, as if he was afraid that someone would see him.
Lingyu carefully came out from under the table and accidentally hit his head while coming out.
It hurt a little, but he didn't dare say it. There was a red spot on his forehead.
He stood there with his hands clasped together, looking very stiff and awkward.
"Yes, did your benefactor ask you to come here?"
Ji Mingzhao didn't understand who he was talking about at first, but then he thought he was referring to Gu Qingyuan.
He shook his head and said, "No."
He came here to give Lingyu some gifts as a gesture of goodwill, and also to see what was going on.
"Mr. Ling, why don't you sit down and talk?"
Ling Yu walked over obediently and sat next to Ji Mingzhao.
"These clothes are newly made and I haven't worn them yet. And these cosmetics are new too."
Ling Yu saw the box of lip balm and remembered that Ji Mingzhao said it was for application on the lips. He assumed that anything that can touch the mouth can be eaten.
So he opened his lip balm and put a little on it with his index finger.
Ji Mingzhao thought he wanted to try the color, but he didn't expect that Lingyu would directly put the finger stained with red lip balm into his mouth and then spit it violently on the ground.
“It’s so bitter!”
Ji Mingzhao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Master Ling, that's not edible."
"Oh."
It can’t be eaten, Lingyu sighed in disappointment again.
Xiaohan looked at the Lingyu and thought to himself, is there really a man who doesn't know what this thing is?
Ji Mingzhao said to him with concern: "Take a look and see if you need anything. If you encounter any problems, you can come to me. If you don't understand something, you can ask me."
Lingyu responded: "Okay."
Then he stopped talking again.
Ji Mingzhao couldn't help but look at him again. This man, with white hair and blue eyes, looked very different from them.
He had also heard that some people's hair would turn white when they were sick, and he suddenly felt a little sympathy for Lingyu.

Thank you all for your support. I will publish three chapters every day starting this month.
I've seen all the gifts everyone has sent, and I'm very grateful! I'd also like to ask for a five-star review so that the rating can be raised as soon as possible.
