"It was all my daughter's fault, it was all her carelessness …" "It's not my fault. It's my fault for not taking care of my younger sister and brother …"

It had to be said that there was a reason why Gu Huanyan could be doted on by the entire Gu family. As Gu Xi unwillingly apologized to Gu Qingyi, Gu Huayan unhesitatingly stood up. With a pale face, she looked pitifully at Gu Yannan and pretended that she was about to kneel …

"Joy …"

Although Gu Huaiyan was not his own flesh and blood, she had always been by his side ever since she was a child. In the years that he had not found his daughter, he had always treated her as his own daughter, making up for all the regrets he had felt for her. Seeing that she was about to kneel down, Gu Yan Nian was startled. He let go of Gu Xi's hand and prepared to support her.

However, there was someone who was faster than him.

This person was none other than Priest Xin Yao.

"Huaiyan, what are you doing? You're still wounded. Besides, it's not your fault. "

While supporting Gu Huaiyan, Mu Jiuyan's brows were tightly knitted. Her words were filled with worry and care. If this was a normal situation, then it wouldn't be a problem. Mu Ning Yao and the Gu family could be considered acquaintances. Having grown up together as children, it was understandable for them to be a little closer, but … However, the elders were present. Although the two of them were not very old, but … But no matter what, he was still just a boy …

When his gaze fell upon the hand that was holding onto Gu Ruoyun's arm, a trace of displeasure flashed across his eyes even though he didn't show it on his face. However, his gaze quickly fell upon Gu Ruoyun's blood-stained skirt. "What's going on?"

"I... "I …"

Being stared at by Gu Yinian, Gu Huaiyan's heart skipped a beat. She didn't know how to explain. She was also wondering when her dress had been stained with blood and if it hadn't been for Gu Xi mentioning it, she wouldn't have noticed. However, if he took this opportunity to make Gu Yinian hate that little slut, wouldn't that just be a setback? Thinking up to this point, although Gu Huayan didn't say anything, she glanced timidly at Gu Qingyi before quickly lowering her head …

Although she did not say a single word, those present were not fools. They naturally understood at a glance.

"Uncle Gu Wang, you can't just refuse to adopt a daughter after finding her. Although Huan Yan is an adopted daughter, she has been a filial daughter for so many years, and you have both merits and hardships. You can't just watch her get bullied." Since Brother Mu and I met each other today, if you don't take care of this matter, your nephew will not listen to you. " Seeing that they were talking back and forth, Xuanyuan Lian was frightened to the point that he didn't dare to open his mouth. He hurriedly listened to the loud and clear sound of Gu Yan Nian's words and pretended to be righteous and indignant.

Gu Yan Nian faintly smiled as he glanced at the two of them. Even the Left Premier and Prince Lian didn't dare to speak to him like that. He didn't expect these two little ones to be so interesting. As a great general, it was naturally impossible for him to bicker with two little brats that were still wet behind the ears. It was just that …

This Xuanyuan Lian was like his father, Prince Lian. He was honest and straightforward, his words never going through his head. However, this Mu Ning Yao …

The son of that sly old fox, the Minister of the Left, was too young to slip away. Why was it that today …

Glancing at Gu Ruoyun leaning on Yao Yao's shoulder, Gu Yinian felt a trace of displeasure in his heart. "Don't worry. I'll definitely give you an explanation today so that you'll be at ease!" Gu Yinian's words seemed to be directed towards Xuanyuan Lian and Mu Jinglei, but in reality, his gaze was fixated on Mu Qingwu and Yao Yao.
