Well… She was actually lying.
Wasn't it a perfect idea to get Madame Gu to hate Mrs. Gu and her whole family? That would be a very fantastic show to watch.
Madame Gu was still mumbling something when Gu Chaoyan stopped listening to her. Before she left, she said, "I am not going to beg for Princess Gu, but I will ask the King to spare the Gu Family."
As she finished saying the words, she left without saying anything more.
Madame Gu did not utter any more sound. She might have been moved by what this girl had said, but Gu Chaoyan was not feeling very satisfied with what she had promised. If she begged for mercy for the Gu Family, both Mrs. Gu and Gu Ruxue would be spared as well.
After she walked out of the room, Gu Chaoyan did not see where Mrs. Gu and Gu Ruxue were. They must have hidden themselves somewhere else.
Then she noticed someone coming towards her. It was Zhou Huaijin.
