Chapter 6: Who Gave You The Guts?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the quiet bedroom, the atmosphere in the entire room became extremely depressing with Gu Tingyuan’s mood.

Meanwhile, three maids stood in a row, all keeping their composure and not daring to make a sound.

Gu Tingyuan sat on the sofa, his face as cold as a glacier. His gaze swept past the three maids in front of him before landing on the pale face beside the bed.

In less than half a month, she had become so haggard. Her face was like a piece of paper without any color.

“Who gave you the guts?”

These few words came out of his mouth calmly, but it frightened the maid, Xiao Bi, so much that she fell to her knees and prostrated herself on the ground. “Mr. Gu, it’s not that we’re slacking off on Miss Mu. She was clearly fine before she left this afternoon!”

Everyone in the entire Imperial View Manor knew that Mr. Gu was decisive and would never show mercy to servants who had done something wrong.

It had only been half a month since Mr Gu left and Miss Mu was already in such a miserable state. Mr Gu must have thought that they had slacked off on Miss Mu for the past half a month.

However, that was not the case.

Upon hearing this, Gu Tingyuan’s cold eyes swept across Xiao Bi and he frowned slightly.

“In the afternoon? Where did she go?”

Xiao Bi raised her head and hesitated when faced with Gu Tingyuan’s question.

The person who took Miss Mu away in the afternoon was Old Master Gu’s men. Could it be that the Old Master had done something to Miss Mu?

However, this could not be. After all, Miss Mu was the granddaughter-in-law that Old Master Mu had personally chosen.

The maid’s hesitation made Gu Tingyuan’s face even colder and the dangerous glint in his eyes became more obvious.

The maid came back to her senses and was about to speak when Mu Wan suddenly woke up.

She had only lost consciousness for a short while, but she was quickly awakened by Gu Tingyuan and the maid’s voices.

She sat up and looked at the man whom she had not seen for half a month. There was surprise in her eyes.

“You’re back.”

On the sofa, Gu Tingyuan turned to look at her. His seemingly concerned gaze on her pale face was as cold as ever.

“Where did you go this afternoon?” It was an obvious question.

Mu Wan lowered her head. She had already realized that she must have fainted in the living room earlier. Hence, Gu Tingyuan’s question was just a reprimand for her “departure” in the afternoon.

Although they had gotten their marriage certificate, Gu Tingyuan had once told her, “Don’t think that you’re really the mistress of this house and can come and go as you please.”

To him, she was just a canary imprisoned by him. Even if she wanted to soar, she had to get his permission. This was because he was the master of this “cage.”

“I went to see my brother.”

Gu Tingyuan looked away. His deep voice was slightly sarcastic and there was a faint arc on his lips.

“What a close brother-sister relationship.”

Mu Wan felt as if her heart was being pricked by needles, but she appeared calm on the surface. “Of course. After all, you don’t have any siblings. You won’t be able to understand.”

Gu Tingyuan sneered. “The brother is in prison, but the sister married into a rich family in the blink of an eye. Is this the sibling love that you value so much?”

Mu Wan sat at the head of the bed and clenched her fists tightly. She didn’t say anything.

Faced with her silence, Gu Tingyuan also stood up instantly, as if he did not want to stay a second longer. “The doctor will come to check on you later.”

Then, he turned around and left.

Mu Wan lowered her head and did not look up. She only replied indifferently, “There’s no need for that.”
