After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 94

"Yes, our lady is also worried about Second Miss's health. She has been saying that she wants to come see the young lady," Zhou Mama said as well.

The two mamas spoke politely, but their words were chilling.

They were all worried about her health, so why didn't anyone come see her except Gu Jia who came to kick her when she was down?

Gu Ying laughed silently and coldly.

After taking medicine for three days, her health was more or less better. After all, the current her was young and healthy, more than ten times better than her previous life's decrepit body. Now she only had some flushed complexion and slight coughs.

She sat up in bed and feebly let Rouge make a seat for the two mamas, "Mamas, my health is not well, I'm afraid... cough cough... I will pass the sickness to Grandmother and Eldest Aunt. That would be my unfilial act."

Li Mama glanced at Ying disbelievingly that Gu Ying was really sick.

She reached out and felt her forehead. Her face blossomed into a smile.

"Oh, Young Miss is not hot anymore. I'm afraid the illness is mostly cured. The Old Madam finally got to prepare a few tables at home today. She wanted Second Miss to meet Young Master Liu. If Second Miss still declines, wouldn't it be like asking this old servant to tell the Old Madam to come invite Second Miss herself?"

Gu Ying laughed drily. The coldness on her face receded. "I wouldn't dare... Li Mama wait outside for now. I will call two maidservants to wash up and dress."

Only then was Li Mama satisfied. She put on her hood and went out, accompanying Zhou Mama to report back.

Yin Lan came in to do Gu Ying's hair while Rouge went to fetch clothes and dresses.

"Young Miss don't worry too much. With so many people around, that Young Master Liu wouldn't dare do anything to you."

"The Liu family wouldn't dare make trouble in front of the Old Madam."

"Young Miss just go. This servant will stick by your side every step. We won't give them any opportunity."

Gu Ying looked at herself in the bronze mirror with a calm expression, seemingly not hearing Yin Lan's words.

She kept glancing outside and then dejectedly lowered her long lashes from time to time.

After Yin Lan finished her hair and chose some simple hairpins, she noticed something off and asked, "Young Miss, what's wrong?"

Gu Ying's fine brows slightly furrowed. She mumbled, "Three days..."

Yin Lan was puzzled. "Three days?"

Gu Ying quickly snapped back and smiled. "It's nothing."

She was just thinking about what the Prince had said that night. He said he would come to the Earl Manor with people to propose marriage in three days.

Today was the third day. Early in the morning... she was thinking he probably wouldn't come anymore.

Sure enough, it was almost noon now and there was still no news outside. He was probably thoroughly provoked by her words that night and took offense.

Gu Ying clenched her cold, sweaty palms and smiled indifferently. "We'll just go with the flow later and deal with things as they come. Yin Lan, don't worry too much either."

That room full of jackals, tigers and leopards in Yongshou Hall, she still had the ability to handle them.

After all, no matter what, she was the only legitimate daughter of the Second Madam in Dongping Earl Manor.

After washing up and dressing, Gu Ying took a deep breath and stood at the door looking at the clear winds and white snow of the manor for a while.

After confirming there was still no news from the front yard, she headed to Yongshou Hall with an expression as usual, thick cloak and hood on.

...

As soon as she entered the side room of Yongshou Hall, Gu Ying immediately spotted Jiang Yin sitting amongst the crowd, as clear as the moon in the sky.

He wore a warm white robe. Thick grey squirrel fur lined the collar, making his handsome face nested in the collar appear somewhat like a graceful young master.

It formed a stark contrast with the pot-bellied Liu Jianren with cloudy eyes sitting beside him.

The seating arrangement was also probably intentional. In any case, although Gu Jia on Jiang Yin's other side looked somewhat pale, she was brimming with pride.

After all, compared to Liu Jianren, her fiance could be said to be heaven and earth apart. Such a disparity made one extremely annoyed.

Gu Ying glanced indifferently at Jiang Yin. He was naturally outstanding, otherwise she wouldn't have noticed him with one look in the past.

It was just that her younger self couldn't see the raging ambition in his eyes. She wholeheartedly wanted his love, but it ended fruitlessly in the end, even costing her life.

She smiled helplessly and pulled up the corners of her mouth. Lifting her skirt, she walked into the side room and bowed in greeting to everyone.

Gu Old Madam didn't let her get up immediately and just had her bent over, asking about her illness.

Gu Ying stood for a while. Her waist felt sore but she still respectfully answered, "Replying Grandmother, Ying's health is much better. Thank you for Grandmother's concern."

Gu Old Madam still didn't look at her and just had her standing awkwardly to one side. She turned and talked to Liu Jianren's mother, Lady Zhang.

Teaching her granddaughter rules in front of outsiders.

Lady Zhang smiled stiffly and occasionally responded with a couple sentences, sizing up Gu Ying from time to time.

Only Liu Jianren's infatuated gaze remained fixed on Gu Ying.

After receiving a letter from his aunt telling him to go to Bianjing, he had specifically sent people to investigate this Second Miss Gu of the Gu family beforehand. Her reputation and such weren't important. The key was how she looked.

He had heard early on that this Second Miss Gu was peerlessly beautiful, beautiful beyond compare!

Although not yet 20 years old, she was already gracefully mature. Her figure was extremely good, with all the right curves in all the right places, slim in some places and voluptuous in others. Every ounce of flesh on her body was in the place it should be!

The only downside was she was a bit slow-witted and her reputation wasn't great.

But these were basically negligible to Liu Jianren!

The woman he wanted had to be curvy and buxom, graceful and alluring, best if she was a charming little fox spirit who could satisfy him thoroughly in bed!

So when he saw Gu Ying's face as white as snow, he was completely dumbfounded.

This woman was simply the sexiest he had seen in his life!

If he married her and took her home, he was afraid his body wouldn't be able to handle her!

Liu Jianren's mind was filled with filth as he ogled Gu Ying. He said to Gu Old Madam, "Old Madam, Sister Ying's health is weak. Don't make her stand. Let her sit quickly!"

Only then did Gu Old Madam glance sideways at Gu Ying. "Since Young Master Liu pleaded for you, you may sit. Be sure to thank Young Master Liu properly."

The corners of Gu Ying's mouth twitched. She obediently took this from Gu Old Madam. At least Gu Old Madam's expression improved a lot.

Gu Ying was already extremely disappointed with this blatantly biased grandmother. She didn't say anything, got up and walked to the only empty seat at the table and sat down.

Liu Jianren sat to her right, his naked gaze clinging to her the entire time.

As soon as she sat down, she smelled the stench of a man's body odor coming from beside her.

She frowned in disgust, wanting to vomit.

The men in her past life all had this kind of unbearable smell on them.

Gu Ying felt awful. Her brows were tightly knitted and her face was stiff.
