The words had just been spoken, when he rushed out directly and looked about in the yard. However, no one was seen.
People in the Gu Mansion would not dare to disturb him when he was living here, that was why he asked his guards to run some errands outside. He got frightened as he heard the noise from the yard a moment ago.
No one should know anything about the Phoenix Girl. Otherwise his plan would be ruined!
"Lord, it may be from a cat in the yard!" Xie Yan replied calmly. He was consoling Lord Ling for one thing, but he did not see anyone around either. So he was sure that it was from some cat.
He had talked with some people from the Gu Mansion. Gu Zhenkang was a coward and he would not dare to eavesdrop. The other servants would not dare to do that either, so he was very assured that nothing would go wrong, even if someone from the Gu Mansion heard anything.
