It was not that Niao Feng could not see this, but Chen Yue would give him a potion every three days. That thing could make Mao Feng loyal to her, but it would also corrode Mao Fengs nerves and slow his reactions.
Such a powerful medicinal effect naturally had a price to be paid by the person who used the potion. However, Chen Yue did not notice this. In her opinion, Mao Feng was already loyal to her, so there was no need to focus on him. She could just treat it as an additional obedient slave.
However, she did not want to die in Rong Fengs hands. She had to find a solution. After thinking for a while, she said, “Bring everything you need to bring on the day of the banquet. Then, let Rong Feng arrange for you to go in.
I’ll naturally have a way.”
“Anything you say is fine.” Mao Feng smiled.
Chen Yue had really had enough of such days. She subconsciously wanted to frown, but it implicated the scar on half of her face.
Seeing that Chen Yue’s expression was not good, Mao Feng quickly crawled over to relieve her. She kicked him away and said, “You can’t even compare to a strand of Xiao Jings hair like this.”
At this moment, Xiao Jing was tying up his wife’s gown. Gu Teng chose a gown with straps on the back. It needed to be tightened and fastened bit by bit. Yunbao handed this task to her father.
It was not a problem for Xiao Jing to fight with others, but tying the ribbons was really a little difficult for him.
Gu Teng could also feel his helplessness and could not help but laugh.
“Stop laughing. It’ll be even more difficult for me to fix it,” Xiao Jing said.
Gu Teng smiled and said, “Fortunately, I let you get used to it in advance. If I had asked you to tie ribbon the day of the banquet. I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to leave after the banquet ended.”
Xiao Jing realized that Gu Teng had been especially relaxed recently. She no longer looked as worried as before and seemed to have suddenly let go.
As he worked on the tape, he asked, “l think you’re getting happier. Can you tell me why?”
Gu Teng thought about it carefully and said, “Probably because I know that
Mao Feng won’t disturb my life for the time being.”
At first, she was skeptical of her second brother’s deduction, but as time passed, Mao Feng really did not appear again. Moreover, she could vaguely sense that the threat that lingered around her had suddenly disappeared, so her mood had been getting better and better recently.
Xiao Jing hugged Gu Teng and said, “Looks like the two of us are free. If only
Chen Yue could be with Mao Feng forever.”
Gu Teng almost laughed out loud when she thought about this scene. Chen Yue was crazy about Xiao Jing. If she and Mao Feng were together, they might be in a tizzy. It was just that she needed Mao Feng to tolerate it now.
On the day of the banquet, Yunbao walked out with an exquisite box. Gu Teng asked curiously, “Yunbao, what is this?”
Yunbao raised it and said, “This is my gift to Brother Xuanxuan.”
Gu Lin sighed. “The two children are really close.”
Only Xiao Jing snorted and said, “l don’t think there’s a need to give gifts alone.’
Then, he was stepped on by Gu Teng. Such words could not be said in front of the child.
Lily asked, “Who’s Brother Xuanxuan?”
Yunbao immediately pulled her enthusiastically to tell her about the past, causing Xiao Jings expression to become darker and darker.
Gu Teng hurriedly asked everyone to get into the car. It would be bad if they were late.
The banquet was not held in the Rong family’s mansion, but in the most expensive banquet hall in the capital. The Rong family would never hold a banquet in their own family. This was a century-old tradition.
The appearance of the brothers from the Gu family brought a scenery to the banquet hall. Many Madams stared at them. The Gu family’s children were all so handsome that people could not take their eyes off them.
After seeing the handsome man, their gazes immediately shifted to the children. They were amazed that the Gu family’s children were so cute. The Gu family’s appearance was really beautiful. If only they could have such children.
Old Master Rong brought Rong Feng over to welcome them and said, “The last time I saw you brothers gathered was at Gu Teng’s birthday banquet. Today, you’re all wearing suits. It’s really hard to look away. Old Gu is really lucky to have you children.”
Gu Lin hurriedly said, “You’re also a lucky person. You’re an elder, so how can you come out to welcome us? We should go in and greet you.”
“You’re guests, so of course we have to welcome you.” Old Master Rong smiled.
“It’s time for my old arms and legs to move around. You don’t have to stand on ceremony here..”
