Gu Yundong borrowed Madam Dai’s room and put on makeup for himself.
Madam Dai watched from the side. Although she did not know what Gu Yundong was doing dressed up like this, she saw that Gu Yundong had skillfully turned an exquisite and gentle girl into a slightly delicate but tough man in a short period of time. She exclaimed as if she was watching a show.
“As expected, I knew that the more I get to know you, the more capable you are. I really want to see what other abilities you have.” Madam Dai was really envious of her hands. She felt that they could turn something rotten into something magical.
Gu Yundong smiled. “I’ll teach Auntie when I’m free.”
“That’s a deal.”
“Okay.” Gu Yundong bade her farewell and hurried out.
As soon as she left, Madam Dai’s gaze landed on the makeup items on her dressing table. She picked them up eagerly and gestured at her face.
Gu Yundong had already walked out of the Dai residence. There were two carriages parked there. Dai Wenhuo stood beside one of them.
Gu Yundong walked towards Xue Rong. “Go back to the inn first.”
“…Yes, miss?”
Gu Yundong nodded and turned to walk towards Dai Wenhuo.
Dai Wenhuo did not recognize her at first. It was only when she was close that he widened his eyes and looked at the delicate servant.
Gu Yundong had already lifted the curtain and went up. “Hurry up. We’re in a hurry.”
Dai Wenhuo coughed lightly and tried his best to hide the surprise on his face.
She was indeed the best at drawing charcoal. He did not expect this skill to have such a magical effect on her face.
Gu Yundong looked straight ahead, but she knew that Dai Wenhuo would occasionally turn to look at her.
If she knew what Dai Wenhuo was thinking, she would probably vomit blood. How could everything be related to painting?
Gu Yundong had something on her mind and was not in the mood to chat, so she was very silent along the way.
In silence, the carriage arrived at the entrance of the Zhou Mansion.
Dai Wenhuo’s carriage had the symbol of the Dai family. The gatekeeper of the Zhou family had long been instructed by the master to remember all the famous families in the prefectural city.
At this moment, when he saw the prefecture magistrate Dai’s carriage, his eyes immediately widened. He hurriedly pushed another person beside him to the side. “Quickly, quickly report to the master that someone from the Dai residence is here.”
That person staggered and did not say anything else. He immediately got up and staggered inside.
“Old Master, Old Master…”
Gu Yundong alighted from the carriage and turned to wait respectfully for Dai Wenhuo to alight.
Dai Wenhuo jumped down and looked up at the Zhou residence in front of him. He said in a low voice, “This is Zhou Dafu’s house?”
“Yes.”
As he spoke, the gatekeeper had already greeted him with a flattering smile. “May I ask if the esteemed guest is Young Master Dai?”
“Yes, I’m looking for your master.”
The gatekeeper hurriedly said, “I’ve already sent someone to report. Young Master Dai, please wait a moment.”
In less than ten seconds, Zhou Dafu had already rushed out of the door. “Young Master Dai, please forgive me for not coming out to welcome you.”
Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes and lowered her head.
Dai Wenhuo glanced at her without batting an eyelid and walked up. “I hope Old Master Zhou won’t take offense at my unannounced visit.”
“You’re welcome. Please come in, Young Master Dai.”
Dai Wenhuo led Gu Yundong and Dai Zhong inside, led by Zhou Dafu.
