After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 33

Very soon, cries for help from the master and servant could be heard from below, interspersed with Gu Jia's curses from time to time.

"Older sister, is the taste down there still good?"

"Gu Ying, why don't you pull me up quickly! Do you believe that when I get up, you won't get any good fruit to eat!"

Gu Ying's face was cold, "Why should I pull you up? To let you go and tattle? To let you go in front of the Empress and perform?"

Gu Jia fell below, her whole body aching, but her mouth was still unrelenting, "Gu Ying, you're crazy! Don't you know that the Empress summoning all the ladies from official families tonight is a big deal? If I don't go, let's see how you explain it to the Empress, my mother and grandmother!"

Gu Ying laughed lazily. Her exquisite and pretty little face was full of precocious maturity that did not match her age, "The night road is dark, sister didn't watch her step and accidentally fell into a trap, why should I explain?"

Gu Jia was almost driven mad.

As soon as she arrived at the hunting ground, she had deliberately prepared this trap, but she didn't expect that fate would play a trick, and Gu Ying would actually push her down!

In order for Gu Ying not to be able to climb up, she went through a lot of trouble.

Not only was this trap dug extremely deep, but she deliberately threw many sharp gravel inside.

It was for the purpose that when she fell down, she could peel off a layer of skin, and it would be best if she could poke holes in that charming little face that seduced men!

But now it had all backfired on her!

Gu Ying looked at the sky.

The time was really late.

In her previous life, she was cold and hungry in this dark trap. Gu Jia pushed her in and never thought of sending someone to save her.

She had stayed here for a whole night before being discovered by Bai Zhi ...

By the time she was fished out by the Gu Residence servants, she had missed the Empress's summons and almost missed the opening of the winter hunt.

Moreover, because she did not attend, she was criticized by countless noblewomen for being arrogant, and her reputation in Bianjing plummeted.

She would never forget the fleeting disgust and contempt in Jiang Yin's eyes at the winter hunt.

Perhaps in his eyes, she was already his fiancée, of one heart and mind with him, sharing glory and disgrace. But everywhere, this future Mrs. Jiang was embarrassing the new top scholar, causing him to lose face.

So later when they married, he must have disliked her so much.

Gu Ying patted the snowflakes off her hands and got up, shaking off the snowflakes on her cloak, preparing to leave.

"Sister, enjoy yourself down there. If you're lucky enough to meet a kind person, you can be saved and maybe still make it to the Empress's summons. If no one passes by here, then you can only blame yourself for your bad luck."

Gu Jia was on the verge of collapse. How could anyone pass by here?

She had deliberately chosen this remote location, not intending to leave Gu Ying a way out.

Upon thinking this, she was suddenly so scared that she ordered in a fluster, "Gu Ying! You can't leave! You have to go find someone to save me! Hurry up! Go! Don't force me! If you push me too hard, I will bite!"

Bite?

Hadn't she already harmed her enough?

Gu Ying smiled charmingly, avoiding the pit she had fallen into in her previous life. Her whole body and mind felt relaxed.

She ignored Gu Jia again and turned to leave the deep woods.

However, before she could leave, a large palm grasped her wrist.

The man's grip was extremely strong. Her wrists were slender and he almost broke her bones.

She frowned in pain, panicked for a moment, and quickly raised her eyes.

In the dim light, the snow was bright.

The man wore a black gold cloud brocade overcoat, with long eyebrows and deep eyes. There was occasional light reflected in his pitch-black pupils, as if it were a bright galaxy.

Only when she saw his distinct, miraculous appearance did she breathe a sigh of relief, smiling and bending the corners of her lips, "Young Marquis? How come it's you?"

This place was remote, there shouldn't have been anyone.

She had just been focused on dealing with Gu Jia and didn't notice Su Huanfeng's presence...

However, seeing him, she was still happy in her heart.

There was a flash of mockery in the man's eyes, "What's wrong? Afraid of being seen by others?"

Gu Ying clenched her fists. Her wrist was still in his large palm. She felt the undeniable pain and was stunned for a moment, "What does the Young Marquis mean by this?"

Zhao Changdu stared at her childish little face and had no intention of letting her go. He asked in a low voice, "At such a young age, with vicious thoughts and ruthless means, even able to frame your own sister, who taught you these things?"

Gu Ying slightly lifted her chin, her clear eyes dazedly looking at the tall man in front of her. For a moment, there was a twinge of pain in her heart. She felt that no one could understand her.

In their eyes, perhaps they could only see her pushing her older sister into the trap.

They must think she was not a good girl.

Vicious and cruel.

But so what?

She had died in the dilapidated temple at the age of 28 in her previous life, nearing 30 years old. Now reborn, adding up her age, she was older than the man in front of her by several years.

She had lived longer than him, seen more complicated human nature, experienced more hardships, and her mentality was no longer that of an inexperienced young girl.

Why make a fuss over it with a younger brother?

She soon convinced herself that there was no need to explain too much to him. After all, these were her family affairs, and it was not good to let an outsider see the joke.

She raised a faint smile, "Perhaps the Young Marquis doesn't know, some things don't need to be taught, they come naturally. I am indeed as the Young Marquis sees, with vicious thoughts and ruthless means, and perhaps in the future, I will be even more ruthless."

She had no intention of letting Su Huanfeng think she was a good person, and smiled again, "But don't worry, maybe in less than three months, I will voluntarily annul the engagement with the Young Marquis."

By then, they would have no relationship.

He wouldn't have to care whether she was kindhearted or cruel either.

Bianjing was so big that when they became strangers again, the filth of the Gu Family shouldn't taint the Young Marquis's nobility.

Zhao Changdu understood her implied meaning, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.

At first, he only felt that she was bolder than other young ladies in the capital, unrestrained, and when she came to beg him not to break off the engagement, her eyes were like a deer's, sincere and clean, making it hard for him to refuse.

Later, in front of Huo Qiyi, she was servile and fawning, completely without backbone, which disappointed him.

Now, she had harmed her own elder sister with her own hands.

Finally revealing her ruthless and merciless true face, making his disgust for her deepen another layer.

After thinking about it, he let go of her hand. Frost covered his handsome face, "Get lost."

Gu Ying felt inexplicable in her heart. She did want to leave, rubbing the wrist that he had turned red. It still hurt for a long time.

But seeing him walk towards the trap, she had no choice but to grab his black gold cloud brocade coat, "Young Marquis, you shouldn't interfere in my family affairs!"

Zhao Changdu glanced at her sideways, the coldness spreading in his eyes made her shudder all over, "What, you harm people, and I'm not allowed to save them?"
