Chapter 54: Unable to Become the Mistress
Hearing this, Su Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
I hope it’s not for this reason, otherwise, she doesn’t know how to make it up to Cheng Lang.
"I will pass on my brother's words to Consort De, but whether they listen or not is not up to me to decide.
"Brother, I came here today to ask for a favor. I'm going to Linzhou, and I hope you can send me some guards when I get there." Su Yuan thought of the business he wanted to talk about.
She could sense that this trip to Linzhou would not go smoothly.
Li Chong is loyal to the Li family, but Li Chong's brothers and children are not easy to deal with.
Over the years, they have done a lot of dirty things without Li Chong's knowledge. This time they are going to meet Li Chong and help him solve some hidden dangers.
Cheng Lang readily agreed, "Okay! I'll arrange it."
"Thank you, brother." Su Yuan said with a smile.
The two of them had almost finished their conversation, and Gu Yu had almost finished showing Zhou Tao around.
Zhou Tao took the opportunity to build a good relationship with Gu Yu, "Young Master, how did you meet the Duke?"
It is said that Gu Yu is the son of Cheng Lang's subordinate, and it is unknown what Gu Yu's status in the mansion is.
Cheng Lang has not yet married, and there is only one young man in this house, Gu Yu.
If Cheng Lang had never been able to have his own children, the position of the Crown Prince of Li would have really gone to Gu Yu.
Gu Yu explained, "My adoptive father saved my life."
In this life, in addition to repaying his mother, he also wants to repay his adoptive father.
Without his adoptive father, he would have probably been beaten to death or crippled by those beggars.
He knew that his adoptive father was so good to him entirely because of his mother.
If it weren't for his mother, his adoptive father wouldn't care about him at all.
"Is the Duke good to you? It must be uncomfortable to live under someone else's roof, right?" Zhou Tao pretended to be distressed and concerned about Gu Yu.
Gu Yu: ...
He didn't know whether it felt good to live under someone else's roof or not, because his adoptive father had never let him feel that way.
What's more, he now spends most of his time in the academy and doesn't spend much time at home.
However, his adoptive father treated him very well, and he never felt that he was living under someone else's roof in Duke Li's mansion.
If possible, he didn't even want to go back to the Marquis of Zhennan's Mansion.
He is willing to stay with his adoptive father for the rest of his life and be his adoptive father's child.
but……
His mother is trying hard to take back everything that belongs to him, so how could he let her down?
No matter how good his adoptive father's place is, he still wants to go back to his mother.
"My adoptive father is very good to me, and the people in the mansion are also very good to me. Thank you for your concern, Miss Zhou." Gu Yu explained.
Zhou Tao pursed her lips. This child is even harder to coax than Gu Huan!
However, Zhou Tao was not discouraged. She smiled and said, "The young master is so well-behaved and sensible, no wonder the Duke dotes on him.
Young master, the Duke is so good to you, have you ever thought about repaying him?
The Duke has a successful career, but he hasn't started a family yet. Does the young master want a foster mother? "
Gu Yu looked up at Zhou Tao, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
This is why Zhou Tao coaxed him!
Zhou Tao wants to be his stepmother?
She is not qualified enough!
My adoptive father is a rare talent, and there are few women in the world who are worthy of him.
Especially Zhou Tao in front of him.
Where did Gu Qingqing get the confidence to think that her adoptive father would be interested in Zhou Tao? What a foolish dream.
"What do you mean, Miss Zhou?" Gu Yu asked knowingly.
Zhou Tao squatted down and asked with a smile, "Young Master, do you know what kind of women the Duke likes?"
Gu Yu pondered for a moment. What kind of woman does his adoptive father like?
There is not even a maid in this house, only servants and nannies. Maybe my godfather doesn’t like women!
Or maybe...
In short, Zhou Tao could not become the mistress of Duke Li's mansion.
