Gu Qianying felt this was a huge breakthrough.
This was beneficial and harmless, whether for the Bai family or for Bai Tianguo himself.
Thus, she volunteered and went to the Bai family.
The guards at the gate simply blocked her, speaking with ice-cold words, unsparingly saying, "Our master is not home recently. If you have any business, please come back in a few days."
Gu Qianying showed surprise.
To ensure she wouldn't be turned away today.
She had waited outside for a long time, and only after seeing Bai Hong enter the mansion did she approach the gate to offer her services.
Seeing Gu Qianying's dazed expression, the guard quickly urged, "Are you leaving or not? Don't make us force you out."
Gu Qianying tilted her head slightly, lowering her voice as much as possible, "I am a female physician and can treat your young lady's illness. I have no other intentions. Please inform your master, and do not delay."
Upon hearing this, the guard became extremely uneasy.
After all, their young lady's condition was not public knowledge. This person looked unfamiliar; how could she know?
Gu Qianying anxiously urged, and further pressured with her words, "Do you truly wish for your young lady's illness to persist for years? If your master knew, he would never let you off easily."
Hearing these words, the group no longer dared to be negligent.
They had no choice but to return to report.
When Bai Hong heard that someone could treat the illness, and moreover, a female physician, he immediately ordered her to be invited in.
Gu Qianying was delighted.
Being able to enter the mansion was a step forward.
However, as Gu Qianying walked in.
Bai Hong's expression showed a hint of displeasure. His initial joy turned into a darkening of his eyes.
He saw the person coldly glaring at Gu Qianying.
"What are you doing here? Who asked you to come? Don't you know this is my home, and you have to come and join the fun?"
Bai Hong's wife, Madam Bai, was not as cold and unfeeling as Bai Hong, but she only offered Gu Qianying a sliver of courtesy.
"Miss, I am truly sorry. My family already has a female physician, and we do not need you to come over. We apologize for wasting your time. Please leave quickly."
With these two speaking in unison, Gu Qianying's expression became bewildered.
She felt it was inexplicable. Logically, she should not have been driven away.
So she asked again, "Does Master Bai have any objections to me? I can truly cure your eldest young lady's illness."
While Gu Qianying was confused, Bai Hong above slammed the table, angrily saying.
"You are someone by Bai Yufeng's side. Are there any good people by his side? You come here disguised without reporting your name. To me, you are not trustworthy."
Gu Qianying was surprised.
She truly hadn't expected.
Her identity had already been investigated by Bai Hong. If that were the case, wouldn't the subsequent matters be difficult?
Before she could recover, Bai Hong had already issued an order. He coldly waved his sleeve, informing the people in the room.
"Drag this person out. If she dares to come again, we will show no mercy."
Gu Qianying still wanted to argue, anxiously saying.
"Your eldest daughter's illness is by no means simple. Do not act carelessly, or great trouble will ensue."
Bai Hong's tone remained cold.
"You don't need to worry about it. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."
After saying this, he took his wife and left the main hall directly.
Gu Qianying was also unceremoniously dragged out and thrown forcefully at the entrance.
She could not resist, after all, it was in someone else's home.
Moreover, she still needed Bai Hong's help later. If they fell out now, it would be very bad.
After she finally managed to steady herself.
Gu Qianying suddenly heard a scoffing sound nearby. The voice was very familiar, making Gu Qianying's scalp tingle.
She immediately turned her head.
Then she saw Bai Yufeng with a playful smile, sitting in a carriage, staring directly at Gu Qianying.
Gu Qianying felt a chill down her spine and glared at Bai Yufeng with annoyance.
She directly got into the carriage.
Bai Yufeng, unable to conceal his mockery, said leisurely, "What! Today the first battle was won? Old man Bai Hong, have you handled it?"
Gu Qianying became angry thinking about it.
If it weren't for Bai Yufeng, she would have been able to contact Bai Yuguo long ago. Why would she be in such a sorry state, pushed out by others? It was truly a joke.
She said coldly, "If it weren't for your great reputation, would Bai Hong have targeted me? And don't forget, I am helping you now. If Bai Hong isn't dealt with, your position as clan leader might be difficult to obtain."
Bai Yufeng's face did not show fear, only a relaxed shrug.
"Even if I don't get the clan leader position, it seems like nothing. But what you need is my blood. Are you sure you won't help me? Hmm?"
Gu Qianying gritted her teeth, wishing she could tear Bai Yufeng's face apart.
She withdrew her gaze, "I will find another way for this matter. As long as Bai Yuguo is still ill, there will be a solution for Bai Hong."
Bai Yufeng said nothing, merely casting his gaze outward.
Outside, it was still lively, with bustling traffic and constant calls of vendors. Houses lined the streets, sitting unmoving on the ground.
He suddenly said, "Do you want to drink? I see a look of distress on your face, as if you are troubled daily. If it continues like this, I fear you won't be able to help me."
When someone invited her for a drink, Gu Qianying was naturally happy to be at ease, especially with Bai Yufeng.
If he didn't poison the wine, Gu Qianying could drink it heartily. She quickly agreed.
"Okay, today I must feast on our young master. What do you say?"
Bai Yufeng's phoenix eyes curved slightly.
"It would be my pleasure."
In the wine shop, the two were not drunk, but simply had a few casual conversations.
Gu Qianying realized.
Bai Yufeng was not someone who inspired deep hatred, but his words were sometimes exasperating.
If he were to recover.
He would indeed be a decent person.
Just then, Gu Qianying suddenly thought of a plan and quickly told Bai Yufeng, "Bai Hong won't let me in, but that doesn't mean we can't go in ourselves."
"What do you say?"
Bai Yufeng's eyes narrowed, "What do you mean by that?"
Gu Qianying suddenly smiled and revealed her plan.
Bai Yufeng's body stiffened, "Do you really intend to do this?"
Gu Qianying blinked innocently, "But if we don't do this now, we won't be able to get Bai Hong's support."
Gu Qianying's plan was that late at night, when the Bai family's guards were weak, they could take the opportunity to sneak into Bai Yuguo's boudoir and secretly check on her condition.
Under Bai Hong's coercion, they had no choice but to do so.
Gu Qianying nodded heavily, speaking without hesitation, happily saying, "This is our only chance, we must not miss it."
Bai Yufeng's fingers trembled, and he slowly closed his eyes.
Thinking of Gu Qianying's sincere gaze, he found he could not refuse. But thinking of that matter, he still refused.
"No, I can only send people to protect you from the outside. I, the young master, will absolutely not go."
