“Who is that?”
A man called out in an icy tone from behind.
Chu He suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her back stiffened for a moment before she turned around.
A man stood behind her and sized her up suspiciously. He felt that this woman was too unfamiliar.
There weren’t many women in the Gu family itself. There were also not many women in this line of work to begin with. Those who were able to sneak their way into the house would be even fewer.
Hence, it was naturally easy to attract attention when an unfamiliar face should make an appearance on the property.
Chu He glanced at him and said casually, “What’s the matter?”

That person asked again, “Why have I never seen you in the house before?”
“Of course you haven’t seen me before! Because I’ve always been by my Master’s side. Naturally you don’t know me!”
“Is that so?” That person was still doubtful.
Recently, Gu Jinglian’s attitude towards women had been indifferent. It was probably because in the past few months, there had been too many family matters to worry about. He could not afford to be distracted and he had no intention to be distracted.
Could it be someone from the main family?
No way.
Even if he was not familiar with anyone from the main family, he should have seen them before!
But he had never seen this woman before.
Seeing how cautious he was, Chu He helplessly sighed, “It’s fine if you suspect me, but there are some things that I need you to hand over to him, is that alright?”
“What’s that?”
Chu He looked around vigilantly and sighed. “Come and get it. This thing is easily broken.”
The man was completely curious, he had no idea what it was.
It was not as if it had not crossed his mind that this fellow would pull a fast one. On the other hand, he thought that given this was the Gu family’s home, which outsider would be capable enough to cause trouble in their territory?
With this thought, the man was confident and approached her.
Chu He reached into her pocket. Just as the man straightened his neck and looked over, she unexpectedly drew out a dagger. Then in a flash, she turned her head and aimed the sharp end of the weapon at his chest, almost ferociously stabbing it.
Blood gushed out.
The man subconsciously opened his mouth, wanting to cry out. However, Chu He took a step forward and covered his mouth, ruthlessly dislocating his neck.

He would not be able to regain consciousness anytime soon.
Even if they took a while to discover him, he was not going to die from excessive blood loss.
Chu He set a time limit for herself and threw this man in a corner. If she was unable to locate her son by the time the man was discovered and a commotion broke out, she wouldn’t stay any longer and would quickly leave.
Chu He groped her way into Gu Jinglian’s house.
Gu Jinglian’s style was evident everywhere in this main courtyard of his residence.
The design of the courtyard was very clean and cold, just like Gu Jinglian. It was gloomy yet overbearing and arrogant.
The body of water complemented the moonlight and was lonely and bleak.
Bamboo and pine, these were all the green plants he liked. After all these years, there had been no change.
She came to the verandah platform and stepped onto it. Entering the house, she vaguely oriented herself and slowly groped her way towards Gu Jinglian’s bedroom.
She suspected that Baby Chu would probably be settled into the man’s bedroom to rest.
She glanced at the clock.
That man was probably still in the study at this hour.
