Chapter 1492 - 1492 Pear Yard 2

1492 Pear Yard

“No!” Gu Zhenkang denied this directly. “You can pick any other yard you want here at the mansion. It would look so bad if you lived in Pear Yard!”

“…”

“Pear Yard was for Madame Gu, and after she passed away, your mother has been living there.”

“…”

!!

“You are the Phoenix Girl, but you are the junior member of the family. That will look terrible for our mansion!”

“…”

“If you don’t like Begonia Yard, we can fix Qiong Pavilion, everyone from Gu Mansion, or anyone from the Ministry of Architecture would work on that. And the yard would be better than Pear Yard in every way. Why do you want to get Pear Yard anyway!?” Gu Zhenkang was trying to persuade Chaoyan to forget this idea.

Well…

For one thing, Mrs. Gu had a bad temper, and she would make a fuss about it. For another, Gu Chaoyan was the Phoenix Girl and everyone was trying to give her the best things, but Gu Zhenkang was still the master. So he did not want Gu Chaoyan to ride over him, otherwise the Gu Mansion would be totally out of control.

Pear Yard and Begonia Yard were different.

It was a symbol. If Gu Chaoyan moved there, his authority would be challenged, and he would not allow that.

Gu Zhenkang spoke to Gu Chaoyan with a quivering voice, but Gu Chaoyan almost ignored his speech.

She stood up and said, “I am not allowed to live there?”

Gu Zhenkang did not answer her.

Seeing that, Gu Chaoyan took a few steps forward and said, “In that case, Sword One, get prepared and let’s move into Xinlin Mansion tonight and I will talk with the King tomorrow.”

Having said that, she raised her leg and was about to leave.

Gu Zhenkang was startled.

He had not expected that Gu Chaoyan would ignore everything he said and turn to the King directly.

That would not work.

Gu Chaoyan was the Gu Mansion’s bargaining chip, so if she was gone, the King and the Crown Prince would not want to pay attention to the Gu Mansion again.

Also, many things happened today.

The Crown Prince and Ruxue were having trouble, and he knew that the Crown Prince was in a bad mood. Also, if the Crown Prince didn’t want to take Ruxue back, the Phoenix Girl might need to try to persuade the Crown Prince to do that.

If she left because of this small thing, the Gu Mansion and Gu Ruxue would meet horrible damages.

So he needed to take a step backwards.

Gu Zhenkang stopped her. “Chaoyan, we are a family, we can talk about the arrangement. Why are you taking your leave now? I was just saying that we could talk about this, because the thing doesn’t seem reasonable. I can give Pear Yard to you, and you can live there. I can work on the rumors if there are any.”

Gu Zhenkang sounded sincere, and Gu Chaoyan stopped.

Gu Zhenkang let out a sigh of relief and said, “That is the deal. I will make the arrangements tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow?” Gu Chaoyan sounded confused. “Today will do. I hate to wait.”
