Gu Jiao and Second Master Jing returned from picking fruit, with Second Master Jing lifting the curtain to enter, only to be forced back after just one step.
"Such a strong murderous aura!"
He said gravely, holding the fruit next to Gu Jiao.
"Whose murderous aura?" Gu Jiao asked.
"My elder brother's!" Second Master Jing said, "All these years I've known my brother, this is the first time I've felt his murderous aura so intense!"
That's an exaggeration.
However, it was obvious that Duke An had sent her and Second Master Jing away because he had something private to discuss with Xiao Hen.
Could it be that Duke An has recognized Xiao Hen isn't Shangguan Qing?
Gu Jiao hurried onto the carriage.
Xiao Hen turned his head to look at her, intending to communicate with Gu Jiao through eye contact.
Regrettably, just as he adopted an expression that said 'your father is bullying me, I am so aggrieved,' Duke An's murderous aura dissipated.
