Could this girl really steeled her heart and let me borrow her grandmother to threaten Gu Xu?

"Isn't that also your bargaining chip?" Gu Mingyan laughed and retorted, but seeing the change in their expressions, he continued: "I have never held any feelings for anyone with Shengan, I have advised you up to this point, I hope that you can remember my mother from Serene Ancestral Temple by spring, her hands and feet have been frozen, and that she should be properly taken care of during the spring."

Madam Liu's expression changed again and again, he only nodded his head, "I will send someone to deliver medicine for your mother."

On the contrary, the expression on Gu Mingyan's face was one of relief.

But at this moment, Madam Liu grabbed her arm and coldly questioned, "If you really can let your grandmother go, then why did you seek someone to take care of you for the Seven Stars Academy?"

His arm was being pulled so hard that it hurt.

Gu Mingyan's face was cold as he said coldly: "I had thought that in such a huge mansion, only Grandmother would still care about me. However, I realized that all she wanted was for me to take care of her biological grandson. "

Madam Liu's face changed, but he retracted a bit of the power in his hand.

Taking this opportunity to pull back his arm, Gu Mingyan looked at her silently: "If Aunt is not willing to do anything, I am naturally willing to take good care of Gu Xu for Grandmother. He doesn't taste anything sweet everyday, it seems that I only need to care for a little bit, and he will be of use to me."

"That's your brother." As a mother, Madam Liu was a little unable to bear it even at this moment.

"I just want to spoil him. He will only be happy for a few months. In the future, he will have nothing to do for the rest of his life." Gu Mingyan smiled lightly: "The best way to destroy a person, isn't that just spoiling him?"

He was simply a madman!

But she was crazy and reasonable to go from that place with nothing to another place with nothing.

It was normal for him to lose all hope.

Madam Liu brought Gu Qingzhou and indifferently left, but in his heart, he felt that he had more or less understood what Gu Mingyan was thinking.

She only cared about a mother.

Gu Qingzhou who was walking at the side with an umbrella couldn't help but say: "She's a madman. That's her biological father and brother."

"The people closest to you are often the ones who hurt you the most." Madam Liu looked at Gu Qingzhou with disappointment, "Do you know that the more unfriendly she is with your father, the more I can rope her in without worry?"

Gu Qingzhou still looked as if he was at a loss. Madam Liu only let out a heavy sigh, telling him to properly ask his sister about this sort of thing before leaving in anger.

In the Han Mansion, Gu Mingyan looked at the heavy rain in shock.

As usual, Gu Xu jumped down from the wall and rolled on the ground. He crawled up from the muddy ground, but refused to take a step towards Gu Mingyan.

"I heard it all."

Gu Mingyan heard his angry voice and saw hatred on that young and tender face.

Gu Mingyan never thought that he would come over during a heavy rain.

His heart buzzing and roaring in his chest, Gu Mingyan nervously took a step forward: "I am only deceiving Madam Liu."

"You lied to me!"

Gu Xu shouted angrily, his body covered in mud as he took a step back into the rain.

He tightly clenched his teeth, even the pain and discomfort from the rain piercing his eyes were forgotten.

"I've never lied to you!"

Gu Mingyan shouted out as well as she stepped into the heavy rain.

But when she got close to Gu Xu, a small knife stopped her in her tracks.

Countless droplets of rain fell down from the silver white blade, but even more droplets soaked Gu Mingyan's chest.

The feeling of the knife tearing through his clothes and resting on his skin was familiar.

Astonishment flashed across Gu Xu's eyes as well, she wanted to retract her hand while trembling, but Gu Mingyan raised her hand and grabbed onto his wrist before she could do anything, maintaining this distance, the rain droplets that were as big as beans slid through her long and dense eyelashes and into her eyes, but Gu Mingyan was still able to keep her eyes open.

"Only then will you listen to me calmly."

She paid no attention to the knife in front of her chest.

If he didn't explain, he would leave.

Gu Mingyan tried to find a way to wake up from the chaos in his mind. Countless words spun around in his mind, and finally formed a few sentences: "If I want to raise a cripple, how can I ask the Seventh Prince Palace to come down and teach you martial arts?"

"You can even act in front of your aunt and dad, how do I know that you're not lying to me?"

Gu Xu opened his eyes wide in alarm from beginning to end, but even more so, he was careful to not push the dagger any further.

When he was in the Palace, he knew of the changes that the aunt and father had made to Gu Mingyan, as well as how much they had protected him from the very beginning.

However, he had no power or influence as her little brother. He couldn't even be known when he went to meet her.

How could he not doubt his sister's intentions?

Maybe her elder sister just wanted to cripple him and get more benefits from the aunt to protect her mother!

Sister's biological mother!

"We are half-siblings. You can do anything for your mother, and I will do the same." Gu Xu found a firm reason to doubt himself, and the perplexity in his eyes was also washed away by the rain: "Of course you can use me for your mother, and you think Grandmother …"

"I didn't."

Gu Mingyan's voice was calm and dull, yet it easily interrupted Gu Xu's words.

Gu Xu clearly felt the strength of his wrist increase by a few notches, and the expression in Gu Mingyan's eyes was suddenly hidden for an instant. The knife in his hand fell into the mud, and Gu Mingyan's ice-cold fingertip had already tightly gripped onto his two wrists.

"Don't go."

She squeezed out the word almost from her throat with difficulty.

"I don't care that we are half-brother and half-sister. I only know that you and Grandmother are the only ones in this house who care for me unreservedly. Even if I die, I won't betray you. "

Gu Mingyan's voice had a hint of a sobbing tone, she firmly grabbed onto Gu Xu's wrist and pulled him towards the roof.

"I can't believe you …" Gu Xu struggled.

"Why?" Gu Mingyan also stood still on the spot, her eyelashes slightly trembling.

"You're too good at acting." Gu Xu clenched his teeth as he shook her hand off and staggered a few steps back. He bent down to pick up the dagger, and with his back facing Gu Mingyan, he said, "Moreover, you also said that if you wanted to use me, your honesty was possible. I heard everything outside the wall, including the matter of you meeting Qiu Fu alone."

Gu Mingyan did not know how much he had heard from the outside.

Then he must have heard what he said to Qiu Fu after his expression changed.

"Then you should have heard it. I hope that Qiu Fu mentions you more in front of Father …"

"I can't hear you talking to Qiu Fu." Gu Xu trembled as she turned her head, only to see Gu Mingyan tightly biting her lip as her rationality returned to her brain. "But I can see that you have two faces."

"You are very irrational now."

Gu Mingyan's voice transmitted through the heavy rain curtain.

When Gu Xu finally reacted, he was already standing in front of him.

"I can't let you go."

"Once you walk out of here, I won't have a chance to explain."

What followed was a darkness even darker than the rainy night.
