Gu Chaoyan did not ask Feng Yue to come to the mansion, because it was Gu Chaoyan’s repayment to Feng Yue.

She was not a very narrow-minded person who cared about mistakes that were already punished for, yet she was still a somewhat stingy person.

Feng Yue did not want her to visit Shadow Door, then she would not want her to step into Xinlin Mansion either.

Gu Chaoyan would rather walk for a few more steps than let Feng Yue come inside.

Sword One was already very happy that Elder Miss was willing to meet Feng Yue. She didn’t care if the meeting took place inside or outside the mansion.

Feng Yue was waiting outside the mansion for Gu Chaoyan’s reply.

When Gu Chaoyan walked out, she was still standing there without showing any expression.

Gu Chaoyan took a few steps forward and carefully sized up Feng Yue. She looked pale and gave out a slight smell of blood.

Gu Chaoyan instantly knew that she must have received punishment somewhere else. Shadow Door had strict rules and gave out heavy punishments. Feng Yue must have been seriously punished for her to look so pale, otherwise a hidden guard should not have looked so weak even when she or he was seriously injured.

Seeing Gu Chaoyan coming towards her, Feng Yue looked up at Sword One and said with a hoarse voice. “I have a few words to exchange with Lady Chaoyan, please leave, Sword One.”

Sword One hesitated. She was the Elder Miss’ maid so she should not leave her side outside the mansion – that would make her look unprofessional. Sword One did not obey Feng Yue, but stood there motionlessly.

Feng Yue was the senior sister to Sword One at Shadow Door, and she usually gave the orders, but now, she was the Elder Miss’ maid and only obeyed her orders.

Feng Yue frowned, seeing that Sword One did not even want to obey her order.

Gu Chaoyan said indifferently when she saw Feng Yue showing a terrible look on her face, “Sword One, just leave us alone.”

Sword One was still hesitating, but she bit her lips and walked into the mansion obediently.

Gu Chaoyan smiled briefly.

Feng Yue was a very arrogant person. She had not noticed that on the way to the Feather Mulberry Land, but one visit to Shadow Door exposed her personality completely.

Gu Chaoyan did not think that she was here to pass on any good message to her.

When Sword One was gone, Gu Chaoyan asked indifferently, “What are you calling me for?”

Despite her displeasure, Feng Yue was going to say something important.

She had been punished these two days at Shadow Door, but the punishments were done in a very serious way, unlike in the past, when the Elder Men at Shadow Door only let her go through a little suffering.

This time the Elder Men did punish her.

Feng Yue could tell that! But why?

The Elder Men watched them grow up and they never gave her serious punishment, but this time, it was different – it must have been because of what the Head told them!

Feng Yue had not intended to come to this stage, but she had to.

The Head had changed. Just because there was a woman like this in front of him!
