"Literal meaning, don't you understand?"
Gu Qianying, not to be outdone, tilted her chin and said softly, then coldly watched Song Yu'er, who was furious opposite her, with disdain.
She hadn't spoken to people like this in a long time. After saying a few words, she felt a bit helpless. After all, the other party was brainless, and she couldn't be brainless with her.
"You have a lot of nerve!"
Song Yu'er took two steps forward, raised her chin, and was about to slap her, but unexpectedly had her wrist grabbed.
"What are you doing?"
Song Yu'er looked at the man who had suddenly appeared before her like a ghost and tugged at her wrist, feeling even more angry. It was one thing for this man to be elusive in Baili Manor, but now he dared to treat her like this. Once her brother arrived today, she would definitely have her brother and the others deal with these two disrespectful men. She was so angry.
"And what are you going to do?"
The person who grabbed Song Yu'er's wrist was Duan Xifeng. Gu Qianying was his sister. As long as he was there, no one could touch her, not even this county princess from the Western Regions!
"You're insolent!"
Song Yu'er was very angry. She yanked her wrist away and looked at Ouyang Qinglin and Duan Xifeng in front of her. Then she looked at Gu Qianying, who was being well protected behind them, and felt even more furious.
"You, you all just wait and see. There's nothing I dare not do in this Western Regions City. When my brother and father arrive, I will definitely make you pay."
Song Yu'er grabbed her maid's hand, pointed at the three people standing in front of her, and trembled with anger.
She had been living in Baili Manor for so many days and hadn't even seen Baili Su. No matter how much she looked down on that sickly person, he had woken up, yet he hadn't come to pay his respects. This showed how poor the Baili family's conduct was.
"What's wrong?"
As if on cue, Song Yu'er's luck was good. After saying a few words about Gu Qianying, she turned around and saw Song Panyang and Song Wuji walking in, their faces showing a hint of anxiety.
"Brother..."
As soon as she saw familiar people entering, Song Yu'er completely lost her arrogant demeanor. Instead, she seemed to have changed into a different person and immediately threw herself into Song Panyang's arms.
"Brother, they're all bullying me, especially her!"
Song Yu'er pointed at Gu Qianying and incessantly complained to Song Panyang about the grievances she had suffered during this time.
Song Panyang had intended to reprimand the person, but when he turned around, he saw Gu Qianying looking at him with a cold face.
The harsh words instantly became unspeakable. He hadn't expected Gu Qianying to be here. Song Panyang's imposing manner instantly diminished.
"This... Sister, perhaps there's some misunderstanding. Why don't you talk to Miss Zhu properly?"
Song Panyang said it lightly and even threw a flirtatious glance at Gu Qianying, but he didn't expect Gu Qianying to even look at him.
He was used to being shameless and wasn't annoyed. He just scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly.
On the contrary, Song Yu'er, who had heard his words, widened her eyes. Was this still her brother? How could he say such things?
"Brother, are you going to help me or not?"
Song Yu'er looked speechless and even more annoyed, her eyes starting to well up with tears. Even if Song Panyang liked Gu Qianying, he had to take the seriousness of the matter into account.
"Alright, alright, I and Big Brother will uphold justice for you."
This meant they would stay in Baili Manor. Fortunately, as they relied on the two of them, one of them quickly went to notify Master Baili. These two were not easy to deal with, so it was more appropriate to find Master Baili.
In just a moment, Master Baili and Madam Baili came running over.
"Greetings to the two young masters. This commoner is late. I beg the two of you to forgive me."
Gu Qianying felt a pang of sadness seeing Master Baili, an old man, kneeling to two men, but in the end, she said nothing.
"Get up! I heard my sister isn't living well at your place?"
Song Panyang looked at him with disdain. This old fellow was still somewhat useful now. When he was no longer useful, he would just kill him. How could he be so obsequious to him now?
Song Panyang looked contemptuous and ignored Song Wuji. He directly sat on a chair, looking down from above.
On the other hand, Song Wuji was more respectful. He stood up to help Master Baili and Madam Baili up and gave them two chairs, with a smile on his lips the whole time.
"Master Baili, please rise quickly."
He helped the two of them up and said a sentence.
This sentence was extremely gentle, but if Gu Qianying hadn't known what kind of person he was, she would have thought he was a good person.
"Since the two of you plan to handle things, I see it's getting late. Why don't I urge the kitchen to serve some lunch for the two of you!"
Even though she disliked these two, it wasn't the time to fall out with them yet. She still had to placate them obediently and wait for her son to be detoxified before confronting them.
In less than fifteen minutes, a table of delicious dishes was served.
The second male lead then said, "Why don't Miss Zhu eat with us? I happen to have some medical questions I'd like to ask."
Gu Qianying raised an eyebrow and actually agreed.
"Hmph, you really have the nerve to agree just like that. You want to climb onto our Song family, don't you?"
Song Yu'er looked disdainful. This woman was with two men. Although they were both called brother, who knew if they were biological brothers or lovers?
"Yu'er, you mustn't be rude!"
Song Yu'er never expected these words to come from her second brother, who had always doted on her.
Song Panyang watched Gu Qianying holding her chopsticks, not having touched the food in front of her, while Song Yu'er beside her kept talking. He thought she was angry and then spoke to reprimand Song Yu'er.
"Miss Zhu, do you find this food unappetizing?"
He even asked thoughtfully.
This contrast surprised Song Wuji. Perhaps his younger brother had taken a liking to Gu Qianying. This was not a good thing!
As expected, Song Panyang sat next to Gu Qianying and inquired about Baili Su.
However, before he could say a few words, he was interrupted by Ouyang Qinglin. He was naturally annoyed, but hearing that this person was Gu Qianying's brother, he couldn't offend him easily. He could only suppress his anger and stay put, watching Gu Qianying eat bite by bite, feeling even more restless.
He had seen many beauties, but Gu Qianying's cold and aloof demeanor was rarely seen. He liked her immensely and couldn't wait to have her. But when he thought of Ouyang Qinglin and Duan Xifeng in front of him, he endured it again. Everything required careful planning. It wasn't the time to alert the beauty. If he startled the beauty, it wouldn't be a good thing.
Song Panyang had always considered himself a gentleman and naturally refused to admit that he wanted to possess Gu Qianying.
