231 Chapter 231 Holding The Fort

“Go on ahead. Prepare a meal for 30 people; we’ll go there directly after making a decision. You won’t have to run back and forth then.” Gu Chengrui nodded and replied.

After sending Zhou Ying off, Gu Chengrui looked at the people in the courtyard and felt that he had to prepare some drinks for them.

At this time, he remembered that there was still a servant girl supposedly here, Xi ‘er, whom he hadn’t seen. He quickly turned around, looked around the courtyard, and finally found her unconscious in one of the rooms.

He went up and pinched her philtrum to wake her up.

When Xi ‘er woke up and saw a man in front of her, she was so frightened that she immediately screamed.

Seeing this, Gu Chengrui knew that she had been badly frightened. He took a few steps back and said, “Those attackers are already under control. You’d better go and boil some water and greet the guests.”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left the room.

Just as he went out, he ran into Gu Chengzhi. Gu Chengzhi glanced inside and asked, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine. It was just sister’s maidservant, Xi ‘er, who fainted from fright. I pinched her awake.”

“Pinched her awake…” Gu Chengzhi looked like he wanted to say something but stopped himself. He thought to himself that Gu Chengrui sure didn’t hesitate to act efficiently, albeit slightly rough.





At that moment, Xi ‘er, who had just regained her senses, walked out. After seeing the apparent pinch marks on her philtrum, she knew she had misunderstood and quickly stepped aside to make way.

After Xi ‘er left, Gu Chengzhi asked, “Do you know who the bastard is? He dared break into sister’s house and rob her in broad daylight. What a piece of shit.”

“I don’t know. I tied them up and left them to Uncle to handle the rest. We’ll just hold the fort.” Gu Chengrui shook his head.

This wasn’t good for Gu Ziyi’s reputation, so the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Gu Chengzhi didn’t ask any more questions and sat with him as they waited for the patriarch’s answer.
