After hearing Sun Rong's affirmative answer, Gu Nanyuan's anxiety and restlessness were finally calmed down, as if a heavy stone had quietly fallen from his heart, making him feel more relaxed than ever before.
At this moment, Lin Ruoxi had returned to her room, quietly waiting for the news that Caiping would bring back.
She sat by the window, looking into the distance, her heart full of anticipation and anxiety. She was eager to know what changes Gu Nanyuan and Song Zhennan's visit would bring to the mansion, and she wanted to know how Madam Sun would deal with these two distinguished guests.
Lin Ruoxi waited for a long time before she finally saw Caiping. Caiping ran back panting with a hint of embarrassment on her face.
"Miss, I'm sorry." Cai Ping said breathlessly, "When I went to get the news, I encountered some troubles."
Lin Ruoxi frowned slightly when she heard this, and couldn't help feeling a little dissatisfied.
Caiping continued, "Originally, I wanted to go to the kitchen to find Luqiao to get the news, but she ignored me. Later, I went to the front yard and learned that Master Gu and Master Song had come to the mansion and were now in the main hall, being personally entertained by Madam Sun."
Lin Ruoxi couldn't help but feel disappointed after listening to Caiping's report. She originally thought that Caiping could find out more about Gu Nanyuan and Song Zhennan, but now it seems that the situation is not what she expected.
"Well, I heard that the Eighth Miss took the Seventh Miss out of the mansion today and got beaten up in East Street for causing trouble. This matter should be handled by the young master."
"No wonder Young Master Gu came to our house now. He must have come to care about Sister Xuan!"
Lin Ruoxi stood up slowly and turned around the room twice, as if she was thinking about something. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, as if she had thought of a feasible solution.
"Cai Ping, go ask around." Lin Ruoxi said to Cai Ping, "This time, in addition to the mansion, you should also go to East Street to have a look. No matter what, you must find out everything clearly and not miss anything."
As she spoke, Lin Ruoxi took out a piece of silver from her pocket and handed it to Caiping.
"Cai Ping, take this money and make sure you find out everything clearly." Lin Ruoxi warned, "This matter is very important and we can't be careless at all."
Caiping took the change, a determined light flashed in her eyes, and she nodded, indicating that she would do her best to complete the task.
Lin Ruoxi, wearing the colorful ring, walked towards the old lady's yard. Her steps were firm and powerful, as if she had a plan and determination to deal with all this.
Lin Ruoxi hurried along the way, constantly urging Caihuan to speed up. Her heart was filled with resentment and determination towards Lin Ruoxuan, and she vowed to bring this person who acted recklessly in the Lin family to ruin.
She thought to herself that it would be such an exciting thing if she could successfully get Gu Nanyuan to cancel his engagement with Lin Ruoxuan.
In the main hall, Song Zhennan had already told Sun Rong everything that had happened.
As Lotus Sun listened to Song Zhennan's narration, her expression became increasingly grim, and her anger and anxiety continued to rise.
As Lin Ruoxuan's mother, she naturally knew her daughter's temperament well.
"Young Master, I know that what Xuan Jie did today was not a big mistake, but she showed up in public, got drunk, and even hit someone. This really damaged the reputation of the Lin family."
Sun Rong said with a sullen face, her tone carrying a hint of helplessness and disappointment, "This child is really getting more and more outrageous."
Sun Rong thought for a moment and said tactfully, "Young Master, you must protect Sister Xuan's identity. If rumors spread, it won't be so easy to deal with. Not only will Sister Xuan's reputation be ruined, but she will also..."
Sun Rong paused and continued, "Young Master, you and Sister Xuan have already been engaged, so please protect Sister Xuan."
Gu Nanyuan heard this and knew what Sun Rong meant. He immediately stood up and said, "Madam Sun is right. This is not only about Sister Xuan, but also about the entire Lin family."
In fact, Gu Nanyuan himself didn’t care about the rumors about his identity, but the person at the center of the rumors now was his beloved fiancée Lin Ruoxuan, and he absolutely could not let this happen.
So he solemnly promised: "It is indeed my negligence. For the rest of the matter, I will do my best to ensure that it is properly resolved."
Gu Nanyuan quickly turned around and had a brief conversation with Qingxiang, wanting to deploy countermeasures as soon as possible.
However, Song Zhennan teased indifferently, "It's probably too late to think about it now. After all, it only took a cup of tea to get here from Tingyunxuan. This rumor spreads as fast as the wind."
Song Zhennan's sarcasm was not without reason. Caiping had already inquired from outside and found out the whole story. She described in detail when Lin Ruoxuan entered Tingyunxuan and how she beat people, even describing the details to the level of every hair.
Seeing that things were almost done, Gu Nanyuan prepared to get up and say goodbye to Sun Rong. What they didn't know was that the backyard was still uneasy at this moment.
Lin Ruoxi hurried to the old lady's yard. Before she even entered the house, she shouted from a distance, "Grandma, it's bad. Something's happened to my seventh and eighth sisters!"
Her voice revealed deep anxiety and worry, as if she had encountered something extremely difficult.
Aunt Zhao, who was guarding outside the door, heard Lin Ruoxi's cry and hurried out to greet her. She frowned and said, "Third Miss, what happened? You are shouting like this, what if you disturb the old lady?"
Lin Ruoxi hurried into the room, only to see the old lady sitting at the desk, reading a book intently.
However, her brows were furrowed, and it was obvious that something was on her mind.
In fact, the old lady was worried about the monthly salary of the mansion.
Seeing Lin Ruoxi coming in, the old lady put down the book in her hand, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "What's wrong? You are shouting and startled like this, how can you act like a lady from a noble family? Is there anything that can't be said in a proper way?"
There was a hint of blame and dissatisfaction in her tone, and she was obviously made even more upset by Lin Ruoxi's noise.
Lin Ruoxi walked to the door and said, "Eighth sister went to Tingyunxuan and saved someone. But, Eighth sister beat the person so hard that his head was bleeding."
Lin Ruoxi exaggerated and assigned Lin Ruoxuan to the worst courtyard, otherwise it would have become more and more ridiculous.
"Grandmother, look at the state of Eighth Sister. Sooner or later, the Lin family will be ruined!"
The old lady became more and more furious as she listened, and ordered Nanny Zhao beside her to do it.
"Go, go call Qiaojie and Xuanjie over here."
