In the end, Gong Lingyu accidentally tripped over something. Her hands were unstable, and she spilled all the snacks on Gu Qingxue.

Gong Lingyu jumped in shock and hurriedly said, “I’m sorry, Sister Gu. I didn’t mean to.”

Gu Qingxue looked at Gong Lingyu. She was very sure that this little girl was doing this on purpose.

She had been walking on flat ground just now, and there were no obstacles under her feet. How could her left foot trip her right foot?

Moreover, she could have thrown the pastry on the ground, but she had thrown it on her. If it was a coincidence, it would be too farfetched.

On the other side, the empress dowager also frowned. She blamed Gong Lingyu and said, “You little girl, why are you still so rash? You even dirtied Xue’er’s clothes. Bi Zhu, quickly go and find some clean clothes for Xue’er to change into.”

Nanny Bi Zhu quickly walked up and bowed to Gu Qingxue. “Doctor Gu, please come with me. We’ll go to the back hall.”

Gu Qingxue stood up and bowed to the empress dowager. “Then this subject will take my leave.”

After Gu Qingxue left, the empress dowager rebuked, “Yu’er, you can’t be so reckless in the future.”

“Gandmother, am I doing this for myself?” Gong Lingyu cried out. “I only dirtied Sister Gu’s clothes to remind you.”

The empress dowager blinked her eyes and asked in confusion, “What does this matter have to do with me?”

“You still have the nerve to ask? What did I tell you last night? I told you not to ask Sister Gu so many questions. She just got together with my cousin, and she doesn’t want to make it public. They must have their reasons, but you still keep asking. Are you afraid that Sister Gu won’t notice?” Gong Lingyu looked at the empress dowager helplessly and asked.

The empress dowager smiled in embarra.s.sment, “I can’t help it, can I? You also know what kind of person your cousin is. He has never been close to women and is silent. I’m worried that he can’t coax Xue’er, so this time I’m going to ask Xue’ er what she thinks of him.”

Gong Lingyu heaved a sigh of relief and continued, “I know that grandmother is concerned about this matter, but with Sister Gu’s status, if news of their relations.h.i.+p were to spread, it would definitely be criticized. What we have to do is to protect them. In the end, you’re still here asking non-stop questions. What if Sister Gu overthinks?”

After the empress dowager heard this, she nodded her head with a serious expression. “That’s reasonable. It seems that you understand a woman’s heart. Today’s matter was indeed this widow’s recklessness.”

Gong Lingyu hugged the empress dowager’s arm. “Grandmother, you must remember the words ‘the future is long’. We will pretend that we do not know anything and just wait and see.”

The empress dowager made a sound of acknowledgment, and her gaze swept across the room and landed on Gong Lingyu. “Look at what you’re saying, but I don’t see you bringing back a good husband. Your Sister Gu already has three children. What about you?”

Gong Lingyu’s face turned red from the empress dowager’s question. “No, I don’t want to get married. What’s so fun about getting married? I want to stay by my grandmother’s side and be with you forever.”

The empress dowager’s heart burst with joy, and she looked at Gong Lingyu with eyes full of love.

On the other side, Gu Qingxue was brought away by Nanny Bi Zhu and helped to change her clothes by the maids.

“Many thanks,” Gu Qingxue said.

Nanny Bi Zhu was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor and hurriedly said, “Please don’t say that, Doctor Gu. It is this old servant’s fortune to be able to serve you.”
