The couple slept in each other’s arms as the sky gradually brightened.
Ye Erruo snuggled into his embrace, her entire body resting on top of his. She would be guarding this man from now on.
When Old Master Lin received the Lin Family’s seal and the bracelet he had given Ye Erruo back from Mo Jiangye, he was so upset that he was bedridden for days.
On the other hand, Gu Feirou was finally able to get out of bed after recuperating for a month and a half.
She went straight to the Lin Family’s residence after leaving the hospital. However, the doors of the residence were locked shut, and the house no longer had the vitality it used to formerly.
It was winter, so it had begun to snow heavily in several cities near City T.
The empty Lin Family’s residence was covered by brilliant white snow that made it look even more desolate.
She used a lot of money and all the connections she had to finally confirm that Lin Jingxuan was no longer alive and that he had indeed been kicked out of the Lin Family.
She was now akin to a living zombie!
“Princess, it is snowing heavily outside. Please get in the car. Young Master Yu has brought all the people who will be serving you today. Let’s head back so you can have a look at them, shall we?”
Gu Feirou took a deep breath. Ye Erruo, I am going to make sure you pay me back a hundredfold!
“Let’s go.”
The vehicle drove into Bo Jinyan’s manor.
Both sides of the road were filled with maids that were clearing out the snow.
“Oh! Little sister is back.” Yu Lingfeng raised his brows and spoke languidly with a lollipop sent by Mo Jiangye in his mouth.
Bo Jinyan was wearing a sweater vest as he walked over after pouring a cup of tea elegantly.
“Brother.” Gu Feirou greeted him softly.
“You were finally discharged. There aren’t any more issues with your body, right?”
“Thank you for your concern. I am alright now.”
The initially arrogant and despotic Gu Feirou seemed to have changed into a completely different person after losing Lin Jingxuan.
“They will be here in a moment. Why don’t you go get dressed?”
“Okay.”
The maids stepped forward to take her upstairs.
“All the plastic surgeries have been completed?”
“All done. She will definitely like them once she sees them,” Yu Lingfeng said with a dubious smile.
Very soon, one vehicle after another drove into the manor and different types of men alighted from the cars. The only similarity between them was that they all looked like Lin Jingxuan.
There were two batches of people in total. One batch had gone through plastic surgery, while the other had not.
“Young Master, there’s another person called Orffa. Something happened, so I am afraid he won’t be able to come after all.”
“What happened?”
There were supposed to be exactly 20 of them.
“Orffa has been crippled by someone. He will remain bedridden for the rest of his life.”
“Who the hell was it? Who dared to touch someone from Blue Tower?”
“I am not sure, Young Master. It happened in the sparring arena he opened himself. He was crippled in the arena.”
“Trash. I told them repeatedly not to cause trouble when they came here, yet this hiccup had to occur during the most critical period. Toss him here and do not allow him to return to Blue Tower.”
“Yes.”
“Where is the gift he gave to the princess?”
Every person had come forward with a rare treasure. That present was unique and unmatched.
“He lost it to someone else.”
“…”
“You can leave now.”
“Okay.”
A while later, Gu Feirou came down the stairs in her rose-gold princess dress and crown.
Behind her were two rows of maids carrying the train of her dress as she walked down slowly and elegantly.
In the middle of the huge hall was an empress’ chair. The cushions were bright red and as soft as cotton when one sat on them.
The 19 people split into two rows before walking in.
“Your Highness.” They bowed before her.
“Lin Jingxuan?” Gu Feirou stood up in total disbelief.
That wasn’t right. They all looked just like Lin Jingxuan.
