Chapter 747
In the meantime, Ober sniffed lightly.
He held out his hand and took the letter.
Yusra Lin was sitting not far from him, so with a slight craning of her neck, she could see the name on the envelope.
Three very large words were written very clearly – Gu Siqian himself.
Kuskan?
So that’s his name?
Yusra Lin felt vaguely familiar with the name, as if she had seen it somewhere before when she was in China, but couldn’t recall it at the moment.
Just after seeing Ober receive the letter, he waved his hand at that guard and told him to go down before turning to Yusra Lin and saying, “I have to go out for a while, Miss Lin is at her own convenience.”
Yusra Lin nodded, and Ober turned around and went out.
After he left, only then did Yusra Lin quietly take out the mobile phone that Ober had had prepared in the room, temporarily given to her, and entered Gu Siqian’s name in the search bar of her browser.
As soon as the name was entered, there was an overwhelming amount of information coming in.
It was all news about the identity of Gu Si Qian.
As the illegitimate son of the Gu family, the third son of Gu Changhai, Gu Siqian has been talked about abroad.
The fight between him and his two brothers is even seen as the best watch like a big drama of a big family fight, so naturally there is a lot of news about him on the Internet.
Of course, it’s a matter of opinion how much of that information is true and how much of it is false.
But none of this mattered to Yusra Lin.
Most importantly, Gu Si Qian, the third son of the Gu family – she knew him!
No wonder, why did I say I heard this name so familiar before, it was him!
To say that this Yusra Lin is actually a little famous in China.
Her father, Lin Guodong, was a building materials merchant who, with speculation and some connections, had grown all the way to Kyoto, where he had established a firm foothold and was considered an example of a successful businessman.
There were many giants of the Kyoto family, and even if the Lin family was developed enough, it wasn’t much of a giants to speak of in such an imperial city’s roots.
But they couldn’t talk, but they heard many of the heroic secrets because they were so close.
The identity of Gu Siqian’s illegitimate son was widely spread in Kyoto, and the Lin family was naturally aware of it.
Yusra Lin had never thought that the rumored fierce and ugly-looking Third Young Master Gu would turn out to be so handsome!
It was the Gu family, and although he was only a bastard, I heard that his mother was also from a famous family.
Of course it was because of Gu Changhai’s deception that he fell in love and gave birth to him, so in this way, he wasn’t considered to have become a bastard of his own accord.
And, as everyone knows, the Gu family’s first and second sons have never been competitive.
Otherwise, Gu Changhai wouldn’t have called his third son, who had always been disliked and ostracized by the family, back from abroad at the crisis moment when the Gu and Lu families were fighting for power.
It’s still not because, the ability of Young Master Gu and Second Young Master Gu can’t hold up the Gu family’s big boat.
Only this third son is clever and ruthless, and his style of action and personal abilities are not comparable to those of his two half-brothers, not to mention his own father.
People in Kyoto were speculating about who the key to the Gu family, the head of the family, would be in the hands of in the future.
The most vociferous, of course, belonged to Gu Siqian.
After all, everyone wasn’t stupid, although the Gu family’s eldest young master and second young master came from a more orthodox background, but what era is this, they say that heroes don’t care where they come from, everything still depends on strength.
Only someone with more strength can lead the Gu to higher and further places.
Only someone with more strength could withstand a **attack sent by other families outside.
Some time ago, Lu and Gu Si fought fiercely, and everyone knew it, but if it wasn’t for the temporary return of Third Young Master Gu to the country to stand in for him, with those two straw men of the Gu family, Gu would have been struck by Lu to the point where he would have fallen out of the ranks of the four great families.
In this way, Gu Siqian not only passed away a lot among other people in Kyoto, but also had a higher prestige in the hearts of the company’s insiders.
That’s a lot of hate for the two older brothers.
But those people were telling the truth, they really didn’t have that ability, so they couldn’t say anything even if they hated it in their hearts.
That’s where Gu Si Qian’s brilliance comes in.
Thinking of this, Yusra Lin only felt her heart burn.
She suddenly had a bold idea.
Although it was just an idea, the success of which was still unknown, it made her heart beat as hard as a drumstick.
She swallowed and looked at the array of exquisite food in front of her, and suddenly her mind brightened.
She put the phone away and picked up her chopsticks again.
After putting some of the delicate dishes together in an empty bowl and ladling out some more soup, they got the maid to bring a tray and carried it out together.
The castle was huge, and the building she lived in wasn’t connected to Kuskan.
It took a while to walk to where he lived.
Yusra Lin tried to suppress her freckling mood and walked in with the food.
It was only when she arrived over here that she discovered that the place where Gu Si Qian lived was much more luxurious and bigger than the place she lived.
It could literally be described as silver and gold.
How rich do you have to be to put a house like this up like this?
Yusra Lin was excited, but still barely restrained herself as she found a maid with a tray and inquired, “Hello, where is Mr. Gu now?”
The fact that Yusra Lin was bought was known only to Ober.
The other servants in the castle didn’t know about it, so they all still treated her as Gu Si Qian’s woman.
Seeing her, she even respectfully stopped what she was doing, stood to one side, and replied, “In the study upstairs.”
Yusra Lin nodded.
She was very pleased with the way the servants treated her.
There’s a huge sense of vanity satisfaction in my heart.
Although in China, the Lin family is also considered affluent and has nannies and maids, but the quality is not comparable to the ones here.
Yusra Lin increasingly felt that this time she might be able to change her life in one fell swoop due to misfortune.
With that in mind, she took her food, straightened her back, and headed upstairs to her study.
The maid watched her back and opened her mouth, subconsciously trying to stop it.
But thinking about who she was, and having some difficulty keeping her mouth shut.
Forget it, she is after all the first time the young master brought back the woman, the young master previously just said that they are not allowed to enter the study, but did not command that this lady is not allowed to go.
Maybe the young master sent her here!
Thinking this, the maid did not open her mouth to stop her, but turned to her own business.
But just because she doesn’t stop it, doesn’t mean no one does.
Ober had just delivered the mail to Gu Siqian, and as soon as he came out, he saw Yusra Lin standing around in the corridor with a tray in her hand.
Chapter 748
He was stunned, a little surprised.
After all, when he left just now, Yusra Lin was still eating at the side of the building, so why did he come over here so quickly?
Thinking that Gu Siqian was still in the study, his face changed and he walked over in a hurry.
On the other hand, Yusra Lin was filled with confusion.
The maid just now, only said that Gu Siqian was in the upstairs study, but didn’t specify which room was the study.
She came up here and realized that there were so many rooms upstairs, each door closed, that she had no idea which one was the study.
In desperation, she had to search one room at a time.
And not daring to make too much noise and appear as if I was being rude, so I had to quietly push open the door of one room at a time to take a look.
This makes it natural to fall into the eyes of others and become a sneaky wanderer.
She was setting the tray on the floor when Ober walked over, her whole body pressed against a door panel, wrenching the handle against the door to peer in.
Finding that it was just an unfurnished guest room, and not the study she was looking for, she withdrew with some disappointment.
Close the door, bend over the food on the floor, get up, and turn back.
Unexpectedly, I turned and ran into a shadow.
She was so shocked that she subconsciously screamed out in shock, but the sound was only out of her throat when Ober covered her mouth.
Ober covered her mouth and dragged her aside before releasing her and questioning, “Miss Lin, what are you doing over here?”
Yusra Lin was very unhappy with the fact that Ober covered her mouth and dragged herself away.
But thinking that he was still the steward of the castle now, and that he was merely a guest, this only served to push down his frustration.
Instead of giving him a small credit in his heart, later on, when he has become the owner of the castle, when Mrs. Gu, he will definitely get it back even with the money.
Thinking this way, her face eased up a bit and she said in a very soft and polite voice, “Ober, I’m here to see Mr. Gu.”
Ober frowned at the news.
“What do you want?”
Yusra Lin smiled and sent the tray in her hand forward and said, “It’s like this, I was eating just now and suddenly thought that Mr. Gu might not have eaten yet, so I specially picked out some exquisite food and sent it over, Uncle Ou, is Mr. Gu in the study?”
Ober sank to his knees and said, “I’ve already told you that the gentleman is eating in the dining room on the other side of the room, so take these things back, he doesn’t need them.”
It was thought that such an outburst would scare off Yusra Lin.
Unexpectedly, Yusra Lin acted as if she hadn’t heard.
She served the food and smiled to herself, “Ober, you’re not him, how do you know he doesn’t want it?Mr. Gu is still busy at this late hour, so he must not have eaten yet, and it just so happens that I’m fine, so sending it over to him is just the right way to express my gratitude.”
After saying that, he was going to go over regardless.
Ober saw the change in his face.
Even stopping her again.
“Miss Lin, no outsiders are allowed in the young master’s study, so you should go back.”
Yusra Lin gave him a look.
The eyes are a little cold.
“Did your young master say that too?”
Ober said quietly, “Naturally.”
“But I didn’t hear it, I must not have been there when he said it, then it shouldn’t have been directed at me, what business is it of mine if you just keep the rules he gave you?”
She spoke softly and feasted on her words, but every word in her words carried a forceful edge.
Ober didn’t expect her to have such an attitude.
All of a sudden it was choked up.
Yusra Lin took another look behind him.
Eyeing the door he had just come out of, he smiled and said, “That’s the study over there, isn’t it?Ober, you don’t have to worry, I’ll come out after delivering the food, Mr. Gu hasn’t used his food for so long, it’s not good if he’s hungry, I’ll go over first.”
Afterwards, not caring about his reaction, he lifted his foot and left.
Ober was in a hurry to see the situation.
Trying to stop her, but Yusra Lin was already prepared and dodged as she was deflected.
She was, after all, young and nimble, and Ober had never encountered such rudeness before, so where would she be defensive?
A unpreparedness, actually let her dodge, and when he came back to his senses to try to stop again, the person has already run out, seeing all to the door of the study, his face changed dramatically, his heart secretly called bad, only to hurry to catch up.
“Miss Lin!Miss Lin stayed!”
He kept shouting after him, but Yusra Lin wouldn’t listen to him.
With a lift of his hand, he pushed open the study door, which was originally just ajar.
In the study, Gu Siqian was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his back to the door of the room on the phone.
Hearing a voice from behind, he turned around and immediately saw Yusra Lin standing in the doorway.
Yusra Lin wore a beige dress today that she had carefully selected from her wardrobe when she was resting in the guest room before dinner.
After all, her previous family wasn’t bad, the family had good food and clothing, and there was never a shortage of luxuries.
All this time, she’s been bullied and displaced, and she’s long missed her old life.
If she hadn’t wanted to marry a bad old man who was over a hundred years old, she would have gone back.
But she didn’t want to give up her life over it, so she was still holding on, but nonetheless, she certainly wasn’t going to not use the goodies that were now in front of her.
And she now has what she thinks is a brilliant plan.
One must know that Gu Siqian was a member of one of the four great families of Kyoto, or the most vociferous successor of the Gu family, and it was likely that the entire Gu group would be his in the future.
In front of him, the company that his own father ran was simply incomparable to floating against a tree.
If he could climb him and go back together when the time came, he might not only be able to not marry that old man who was over half a hundred years old, but he could also impress his father.
In the past, Yusra Lin only believed in love.
Thinking that a girl can ignore everything else if she has love.
But after this calamity, she realized that love is nothing in real life, away from that rich environment of clothing and food.
The man she once truly trusted and loved, ended up selling her out.
She’s angry and she wants revenge back.
But with her current situation, she doesn’t have that ability to retaliate back.
Don’t say retaliation, as long as she dared to appear in the country, she might be arrested back immediately by her father, who might not necessarily listen to her then, thinking that all her experiences were just a lie and that she didn’t want to get married.
And there was actually another discovery hidden within her.
Chapter 749
That is, at home, her father was far too lenient with her compared to her younger brother, who was always under his father’s strict tutelage.
Tolerant to the point that even if she was arrogant and domineering, even if she was uneducated and only knew how to buy luxury goods and star-struck beauty treatments, her father was completely fine with it.
She used to think it was because her father doted on her.
But until coming out and going through all of this, I had no ability to fight back or even deal with these situations when they happened.
She just realized that perhaps her father never did it because he loved himself.
Rather, he didn’t see himself as a person who needed to be nurtured at all.
She was his daughter, but she was also a pawn of the Lin family.
A pawn with an empty beauty and no need to have its own strength.
This pawn, which normally only costs a little money to keep, will be of great use to the family when the time comes.
Like now, when the Lin family’s business is in crisis, her father forces her to marry a man old enough to be like her father.
This knowledge made Yusra Lin’s heart feel very sad.
But she had no choice.
All she had to do now was try to seize any opportunity that presented itself, and then show her father properly that she was not useless.
If she was given a chance, she could hold on to it and then impress her father.
Thinking of this, Yusra Lin adjusted the muscles on her face and showed a smile.
“Mr. Gu…”
“Who put you up to this?”
Before the words could be spoken, they were interrupted by Gu Si Qian.
Yusra Lin’s face stiffened, and the rest of her words choked down her throat at once.
Only Gu Si Qian’s face was extremely cold, a pair of sharp eyes were like quenched ice, and his tone was even more mixed with a frightening anger.
He didn’t even bother to look at Yusra Lin and just shouted, “Ober!”
Uncle Ou, all dressed up in old arms and legs, couldn’t stop Yusra Lin, couldn’t catch up, and only came running after a long time.
Looking at the situation in front of you, you knew something bad was happening, and your face changed, and you were busy explaining, “Young Master, I’m sorry, I didn’t stop it…”
“Throw her out!”
Gu Si Qian did not listen to his explanation, but gave his orders directly.
Ober’s eyes narrowed, knowing that he was truly angry, and he agreed, “Yes.”
Saying that, he turned to Yusra Lin and said, “Miss Lin, as you can see, please follow me out.”
It wasn’t just Gu Siqian who was angry, Ober was also very angry in his heart.
It was simply speechless to Yusra Lin’s rude behavior like this.
But he was, after all, an excellent steward, used to doing nothing at all times, so his face was quite calm.
Unexpectedly, Yusra Lin didn’t move at all.
She was still standing there, not even listening to what he said, just looking straight at Gu Si Qian.
“I’m not going out, Ober, you go down, I have something to say to Mr. Gu.”
Ober frowned at the news.
At this point, even a good quality of upbringing like his was a bit too much to bear.
Looking up, impatiently looked at her and said, “Miss Lin, if you have anything to say, you can say it to me and I’ll help you convey it to the young master, instead of running into someone’s study like this without manners, so please follow me out!Otherwise, if security is used, it’s just not going to look good on anyone’s face.”
That’s a very heavy statement, peremptorily enough.
After all, to outsiders, Yusra Lin was the first woman Gu Siqian brought back to the castle and was considered an important guest.
Although Gu Siqian didn’t order anything, everyone, because they had never seen him bring a woman back before, subconsciously thought that she was different for Gu Siqian.
Although, this one was different, as Kusken had explained to Ober long before.
But this was only something that Ober knew about.
Without Gu Siqian’s authorization, it was impossible for Ober to really open his big mouth to tell everyone about Yusra Lin’s history, so this way, if he didn’t explain, everyone would just take it as their default.
The attitude towards Yusra Lin became more and more respectful and careful.
That was why, Yusra Lin had managed to break in here.
Yusra Lin’s face finally changed when she heard his words.
She knew that this was Ober’s way of giving himself one last face, and if he still insisted, he would only really tear it up.
But at the same time, she also knew that her actions now had caused Gu Siqian’s disgust.
If you don’t take the chance now, there’s really no chance at all that he won’t see you again later.
Thinking of this, Yusra Lin put her heart in the right place, and did not leave, but directly to the point: “Mr. Gu why do you have to be so reluctant?Is this the way the Gu family, one of the four great families of Kyoto, treats their guests?You don’t even let people finish their sentences and then kick them out?”
As soon as this was said, Ober and Gu Siqian were stunned together.
Gu Si Qian narrowed his eyes, the depths of his eyes overflowing with a dangerous light, coldly surveying her.
There was silence all around, and a strange and tense atmosphere crept into the room.
Half a dozen times before hearing him speak coldly, “Do you know who I am?”
Yusra Lin’s feet were tingling at that icy voice, and the kind of icy coldness that came over the man’s body made her feel the urge to pull her feet out and leave.
But she held back in the end.
Straightening his neck slightly, he looked up at him and said, “Yes.”
“Heh!”
A low laugh, like a sword spilling out of a throat.
The anger on his face dissipated, replaced by a playful smirk.
Like a cruel hunter seeing a playful and interested prey, he strode slowly to the couch and sat down, lifting one long leg and overlapping it with the other, watching her with good grace.
“Perversely interesting.”
He said, his fingers unconsciously playing with a ring between his fingers, “Ober, you go down first.”
Ober saw him and gave him a look, then looked at Yusra Lin.
In the meantime, when looking at Yusra Lin, her eyebrows were clearly unhappy, but in the end, she didn’t say anything, said yes, and retired respectfully.
In this way, only Yusra Lin and Gu Siqian were left in the study.
When Yusra Lin saw him tell Ober to leave, she knew that her desperate gamble was the right one.
The road behind is unpredictable, but as long as you hold onto that point, you shouldn’t go wrong.
Thinking so, she let out a soft breath and stepped forward.
“Mr. Gu, you haven’t eaten dinner yet, this is a meal I’ve carefully selected for you, I don’t know if it’s to your taste if you don’t like it, I can make it for you alone, my cooking skills are also excellent, you can try it if you don’t believe me.”
