Chapter 149 Xiaoxiao, give daddy another chance, okay?
"I didn't," Yu Yuexi's mind went blank the moment she saw Gu Shi appear. No matter how hard she tried, she could only repeat "Uncle Gu, I really didn't"...
"I could hear it all clearly on the other end."
Seeing is believing, and coupled with the fact that he had previously witnessed Yu Yuexi beating and scolding the maid, Gu Shi no longer had the unconditional trust in Yu Yuexi as before.
He looked at Yu Yuexi coldly, still shaking her head in grievance to defend herself, with a sneer on his lips.
"Why, until now, you still think I'm blind?"
A hint of panic flashed across Yu Yuexi's eyes, but was quickly replaced by grievance.
"Uncle Gu, Yueyue doesn't know what you're talking about? It was clearly Xiaoxiao who provoked me first. If you don't believe me, go ask..."
"Who should you ask? Ask your personal maid so that your people can continue to wrongly accuse Xiaoxiao?"
As Gu Shi spoke, he walked over to Gu Xiaoxiao, squatted down and comforted her.
He couldn't imagine how aggrieved his Xiaoxiao would be if he had really believed Yu Yuexi's words based on the illusion.
When had Yu Yuexi ever been treated so coldly by Gu Shi in front of Gu Xiaoxiao?
After all, she is only an eight-year-old child, and her emotions are easily aroused.
Without Mrs. Xin by his side, he could no longer control his emotions and glared at Gu Xiaoxiao fiercely.
"You did it on purpose."
Gu Xiaoxiao immediately shrank in fear in Gu Shi's arms.
"Sister, don't hit me..."
"Weren't you very arrogant just now? Why are you pretending now?" Yu Yuexi screamed and was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Chen Shiliu.
"Miss Yue, please stop messing around."
"Let me go."
Gu Xiaoxiao and Gu Shi moved closer.
"Daddy... just now my sister said that she is the legitimate daughter of the royal family, and Xiaoxiao is just a bastard without a proper status. She told Xiaoxiao and mother to pack up and leave immediately. Do you really not want Xiaoxiao and mother anymore?"
The little girl had a pair of eyes that looked very similar to Shen Muxi's. Her red eyes were filled with mist, and tears hung stubbornly in her eye sockets, reluctant to fall.
Looks aggrieved and broken.
Gu Shi's heart was about to break. His tone was extremely gentle, "Xiaoxiao, don't be afraid. With Daddy here, no one can bully you. From now on, Xiaoxiao and Mommy will always live with Daddy, okay?"
Gu Xiaoxiao tilted her head, as if considering the credibility of Gu Shi's words.
After a while, he nodded gently.
"Xiao Xiaoxin Daddy."
A feeling of ecstasy of regaining what he had lost spread from Gu Shi's heart. Without any hesitation, he picked up Gu Xiaoxiao and strode towards Bishuiyuan.
When passing by Yu Yuexi, Gu Shi stopped and said in a cold voice, "You have been becoming more and more lawless in the mansion these days. Kneel here and reflect on your mistakes today. Return to Luoxia Garden after dark."
It is only the end of Chen hour and the beginning of Si hour.
There are still at least four hours until dark.
Uncle Gu wants her to kneel down and break her legs.
Her wolf had bitten many people before, and Uncle Gu just picked it up high and put it down gently.
Now she was just provoked by Gu Xiaoxiao and said a few unpleasant words. Why should Uncle Gu punish her?
A feeling of unwillingness quickly grew in her heart. She wanted to say something else, but when she looked up, she found that Gu Shi and the others had already gone far away, leaving only an unfamiliar guard holding a long whip watching her and Xiaohong beside her kneeling as punishment.
The guards were extremely strict. If she relaxed her kneeling posture even a little, a whip would mercilessly sweep past her ear and land on the hard stone bricks beside her.
She trembled, gritted her teeth and whispered angrily, "Gu Xiaoxiao, you little bitch, just wait. If you dare to hurt me, I will make you live a life worse than death."
...
Gu Shi carried Gu Xiaoxiao all the way back to Bishuiyuan.
He had just put Gu Xiaoxiao down and was about to turn around. Gu Xiaoxiao did not try to stop him. She only said, "Goodbye, Daddy," as Gu Shi turned around.
Gu Shi reached out and scratched her nose, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "You heartless little thing, do you really want Daddy to leave? You don't need Daddy to accompany you anymore?"
Gu Xiaoxiao nodded, then quickly shook her head.
"Mother said that Daddy is already very busy and tired from handling official duties on weekdays, and Xiaoxiao can't bring trouble to Daddy."
Can't cause him any trouble?
The familiar words made Gu Shi's heart inexplicably tighten.
The dead memories suddenly came back to life, catching him off guard.
At that time, Shen Muxi and her daughter had just returned to Beijing from Danyang.
Several times, when Gu Xiaoxiao wanted to see him, he was accompanying Yu Yuexi and her daughter.
In order to prevent Shen Muxi and her daughter from thinking too much, he made up an excuse that he was busy with official business, in order to prevent them from bothering him...
The gushing feeling of guilt was like a big hand tightly wrapping around Gu Shi, squeezing his heart so hard that it hurt.
He couldn't help but return to Gu Xiaoxiao again, hugging her tightly in his arms, murmuring, "Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry. Daddy was confused before, and his heart was blinded by greed. Daddy will never hurt Xiaoxiao again. Xiaoxiao, give Daddy another chance, okay?"
Gu Xiaoxiao seemed not to understand what he was saying. She happily hugged Gu Shi's neck and kissed him on the cheek.
"Xiaoxiao loves daddy the most."
After the little girl cried, her mood obviously improved. The innocent smile on her face seemed to be extremely contagious, making Gu Shi's mouth corners couldn't help but rise.
A long-lost feeling of happiness spread from the bottom of my heart.
Gu Shi secretly rejoiced.
Fortunately, children have short memories and Mu Mu loves him, so the previous hurt can be healed.
After Mu Mu gets married, he will definitely teach Yu Yuexi and her daughter a lesson and not let them do anything to hurt Xiao Xiao and Mu Mu.
Just when Gu Shi was considering whether to come over to have lunch with Gu Xiaoxiao at noon today, Chen San came with a serious expression.
"Your Majesty, there's something going on at Ronghui Hall."
...
Half an hour ago.
Shen Muxi took advantage of the slight dawn and took advantage of the guards' shift change to return to the servants' room in Ronghui Hall.
Unexpectedly, just as she entered the room with her bag on her back, she was taken out of the main house by Su Pozi, without even putting the things in the bag on her shoulder away.
"Mammy, the old princess hasn't gotten up yet. Why did you bring me here?"
Mrs. Su glanced at Shen Muxi in embarrassment, but her tone remained unchanged as she said, "Kneel down."
Meeting Mrs. Su's suggestive gaze, Shen Muxi obediently knelt outside the main house.
Mrs. Su walked quickly to one of the maids, stayed there for a moment, and then left.
Soon, the place where the little maid had originally stood became empty.
Shen Muxi knelt outside the main house until the sun rose from the rising sun in the east to the high sun at noon.
I don't know if it was intentional delay or he actually didn't get up, but until the beginning of the Si hour, Kang was still in the main house. No one came in to help her wash and dress, and even the small kitchen was silent.
The first thing Gu Shi saw when he stepped into Ronghui Hall was Shen Muxi kneeling in front of the main house, his face pale and shaky.
His heart tightened and he blurted out, "Mumu."
His voice startled Kang who was in the room.
The door opens from inside.
Mrs. Su came out of the house, greeted Gu Shi from a distance, and then went back into the house.
Ronghui Hall, which had been lifeless, seemed to come alive in an instant when Su Pozi greeted Gu Shi.
The servants began to enter the house in an orderly manner, carrying various toiletries.
Shen Muxi stopped Gu Shi from pulling her up.
"Webpage, don't hurt the relationship between you and your son because of me."
