She had more than enough ways to deal with Hui Niang. But after all, it was not part of her mission objectives to abuse and defeat the original heroine, so unless the heroine crossed her bottom line, Gu MingYue would not resort to her methods as such conspiring plots were not yet worth her time and effort.

Meanwhile, the method she picked now was much more simpler and straightforward. For example, an emotional performance in front of Xie MingLang was an indispensable part of it.

And as expected, this successfully caused Xie MingLang’s disgust towards Hui Niang to deepen significantly. He could not tolerate anyone who tried to separate his little daughter from him, and whatnot, anyone who tried to make Gu MingYue upset.

To Xie MingLang, Gu MingYue belonged to him, he was the only person that was allowed to make her cry… Though as someone who had kept her within his heart preciously for years, how could he bear to do so? Even if he did make her cry, it would only ever be due to their midnight activities.

Hui Niang exchanged a few words with her handmaiden before walking up to Xie MingLang with a timid and ladylike curtsy, “Brother Xie, thank you so much for saving my life, I will never forget your kindness.” Hui Niang started softly, “It’ll be my honor to invite Brother Xie and Miss Xie to my humble house in Ji Jiang City, so that I have a chance to repay your kind deeds.”

Xie MingLang’s first response was to reject Hui Niang’s invitation, but he felt a light tug on his sleeves and he quickly swallowed his unspoken rejection and instead, nodded with an indifferent facial expression which was naturally taken as a ‘yes’ by Hui Niang.

The curvature of the corners of Hui Niang’s lips deepened as she stepped closer to Gu MingYue and held the young lady’s hands with a gentle expression, before mouthing the words: We shall wait and see.

In which, Gu MingYue returned with a pure and sweet smile, which was much livelier and cuter, as her acting skills were much more trained and sophisticated than Hui Niang’s.

“Have a safe trip, aunty~”

Hui Niang’s hands tightened into a clench at Gu MingYue’s words as her fingernails sank deeply into the young lady’s pale and tender flesh, wishing nothing more than to tear out the young lady’s flesh and blood so that she’ll end up ugly and scarred…

However, for the sake of her brilliant plan, Hui Niang swiftly retracted her hands and thanked them with a final bright smile, before leaving the place surrounded by servants.

Xie MingLang will definitely be mine one day, all I need to do is wait. Hui Niang knew she had a web to weave, and she had all the patience she needed for it.

Furthermore, the only two things in the world that would never betray her were wealth and power. No matter which era you’re in, you should always use the resources you have efficiently so that you can easily achieve your goals.

Hui Niang decided that the first thing she would do once she returned home was to investigate Xie MingLang’s seemingly complicated background and then decide how to deal with the troublesome Gu MingYue. However, her initial plan to matchmake Gu MingYue with that person’s youngest son was still a much more favorable and desirable choice, because if Xie MingLang was indeed an ordinary person, he would definitely not be able to go against this at all.

At this moment, all Hui Niang wanted was to return home as quickly as possible so she can get her plans moving, however, little did she know that Gu MingYue’s responses were much swifter than she could ever imagine.

As previously mentioned, if it was not necessary, Gu MingYue never like to have too much contact with the original heroine and would usually actively avoid conflicts with them. In fact, from the start, she had always taken the measure to avoid the original heroine as much as possible, and if there was a way to avoid meeting or interacting with the original heroine, Gu MingYue was more than willing to do so.

This was not cowardice, but an extremely time-saving and wise move, as it would save a lot of time and effort, plus many unnecessary but possible misunderstandings between herself and the mission targets.

Hence, as soon as Hui Niang was out of their range, Gu MingYue spun around and hugged Xie MingLang tightly around his waist, before mumbling softly, “Daddy, let’s leave this place and move to somewhere else…”

Although it was peaceful and comfortable living in seclusion here, it was not a viable long-term solution, and Gu MingYue had long since planned this.

Enjoy~
