Bab 136: Out of Mansion

Within a short period of time Madame Gu started to imagine how the Gu Mansion would have to receive numerous guests as they used to, and how Gu Zhenkang would get promoted very soon. She even thought about Princess Gu who had no progress during the past few years - maybe she was going to have a breakthrough point too.

At that time, the Gu Mansion would not be far from the Top Mansion of the capital city.

Madame Gu looked radiant, waiting patiently for Lord Huai to take the next step, but Lord Huai did not spare a look at Madame Gu.

Madame Gu's heart sank, as she noticed that something wasn't right. So she turned to Gu Chaoyan, suggesting with the look that Gu Chaoyan should invite the man in.

Gu Chaoyan got what Madame Gu meant, but she did not intend to follow Madame Gu's intention. Zhou Huaijin was here to help her, not to help the Gu Mansion. She was not going to allow the Gu Mansion to make use of Zhou Huaijin to get some benefits and interests.
