Gu Liyue looked at Nie Hengzhou and found her own reflection in his eyes. At this moment, her face was calm, but she felt that Nie Hengzhou's eyes were like an abyss.

She felt a surge of panic inside. She tried to ignore his gaze. Although his enchanting features were in line with her own aesthetic, she usually just saw him as a handsome man and didn't think anything else of him. She looked away again, gazing at the bright moon in the sky.

She really didn't know how to handle this situation, so she could only speak truthfully: "Brother Nie, the road ahead is so long. I feel like I'm still unsure of my feelings for you. At this stage, I feel comfortable being brothers and sisters, and friends."

Nie Hengzhou listened to her words. She didn't agree with him, but it seemed that she didn't reject him either.

He said with a scorching gaze, "I will work hard to make you accept me and agree to let me be your Taoist companion."

Gu Liyue's face flushed red as she said, "It's getting late, you should go back."

Nie Hengzhou had no choice but to look at her deeply and turned away.

The two little ones saw this scene in the space. Xiaoxuan felt a little sorry, but also felt that what Gu Liyue said made sense.

Xiao Bairui was a little confused and probably didn't understand what they said.

At night, Gu Liyue entered the space to practice as usual, and got along with the two little ones in the space.

She warned the two little ones not to go out when they were at Leng's house, especially little Bai Rui.

She took out the book about spiritual fruits and herbs she had gotten from the Treasure House and gave it to Xiao Bairui, who gladly accepted it.

It is still unclear whether the cultivator knew that it was Bai Ze who was born that day, and tried his best to prevent people from seeing Bai Rui to avoid further trouble.

Fortunately, Xiao Bairui is not making any noise now. He is just practicing in the space. He feels that he needs to become stronger quickly.

Today, watching Gu Liyue and the others being taken away, it hoped to become stronger so that it could protect Gu Liyue, allowing her to go wherever she wanted, and not have to leave if she didn't want to be taken away. It also didn't have to hide what it had.

They spent a peaceful day in the Leng Mansion. That day, apart from Leng Jiaojiao coming to have a meal with them, nothing else happened.

The next day, Gu Liyue had originally thought that she could go to Dongfeng's house after the day, but unexpectedly, at noon, she was disturbed by the noise and could not concentrate. She left the space and walked into the yard.

I saw Leng Yingying and a team of guards arguing with the maid at the door.

It turned out that the maid stopped her from entering Gu Liyue and the others' yard, and Leng Yingying started arguing with her at the gate.

"How dare you, a maid, stop me, a young lady? I don't care whose order it is."

"Sixth Miss said that we cannot disturb the guests' rest." The maid stood at the gate of the courtyard with her hands open, blocking Leng Yingying from entering the courtyard.

Leng Yingying walked forward and slapped the maid twice. With a loud and clear "slap", the maid fell to the ground, and both sides of her face quickly became red and swollen.

"Guards, take her away. I want to see who dares to stop me today. I'm here on the orders of the head of the family."

Leng Yingying raised a token in her hand. When the maid saw that it was indeed the master's token, she didn't dare to say anything. The two slaps she received were in vain.

She knew that the Fifth Miss just couldn't stand the Sixth Miss. If the Fifth Miss had taken out the token from the beginning, she wouldn't have stopped her! She just wanted to bully the Sixth Miss.

Looking at her attitude, I don’t know how she’s going to deal with Miss Six’s guests today!

When she saw that the Fifth Miss ignored her after hitting her, she quietly took a few steps back, turned around and ran away.

As soon as Gu Liyue walked out of the room, Yun Lizhi, Wen Qinnuan and Qingxiao opened the door and walked out one after another.

Qing Xiao said coldly: "What's going on? Is this how you treat guests in the Leng Mansion?"

Leng Yingying glanced at them and said arrogantly, "The head of the family suspects that the female cultivator who stole the opportunity is hiding in this courtyard. Take these four away from me."

Before Gu Liyue could say anything, she saw Nie Hengzhou and the others standing at the gate of the courtyard. They happened to hear Leng Yingying's words and were so angry that they wanted to fight with the guards.

Gu Liyue looked at Nie Hengzhou and shook her head.

Then she looked at Leng Yingying and asked, "Fifth Miss, may I ask what is the cultivation level of the female cultivator who took away the opportunity?"

Leng Yingying choked, her eyes rolling around a few times as she said, "Don't ask so many questions. Once we get to the interrogation room, I'll make you convinced!"

Gu Liyue thought: "We're going to take someone to the interrogation room without any evidence. Who will be held responsible if something happens to him?"

"We didn't steal anyone's opportunity, so don't smear us. If you don't produce evidence, we won't go with you."

Leng Yingying raised the token again and said, "Here is the token of the head of the family. Guards, listen to my orders and take them away."

The guards wanted to walk towards Gu Liyue and the others.

Nie Hengzhou stood at the gate and shouted, "Let's see who dares!"

Xiahou Jingrong said, "You have such a large Leng Mansion, and you invited someone to be your guest yesterday, and today you arrested him as if he were a criminal. Will anyone dare to come as your guest in the future?"

Xiao Ju said: "You Leng Mansion really set up a good trap!"

Gu Liyue glanced at Qingxiao and found that she was calm and composed. She thought that she had thought of a plan, so she felt relieved.

Leng Yingying watched the guards hesitate after hearing what Xiahou Jingrong and the others said. They only heard the head of the family say that he came to see the cultivation level of these people, but did not say that he wanted to arrest anyone.

He saw that the cultivation bases of these people were not very high! The one wearing green clothes had the highest cultivation base, but it was only the same as his own. There was no way he was the one who took away the opportunity.

But the fifth lady is holding the token of the head of the family, and you look at each other, not knowing what to do.

Leng Yingying raised the token again and said, "Here is the token of the Patriarch. Captain of the Guards, do you want to disobey?"

The captain of the guards thought: Since the master of the house is not here, they have to obey the orders of the person holding the token.

He waved his hand, and the guards stepped forward and surrounded Gu Liyue and the other three. Gu Liyue summoned [Wu Hua], sword in hand.

The friends watched her summon weapons and summoned their own weapons.

The whole yard was shrouded in a tense atmosphere.

Just as the two sides were confronting each other and were about to start fighting.

Leng Jiaojiao's voice rang out, and she shouted angrily: "Stop it. Let's see who dares to do it!"

The guards stepped aside as if relieved.

Leng Yingying had originally wanted to make a quick decision. As long as she could take Leng Jiaojiao's guest away, regardless of whether the interrogation revealed anything or not, it would be considered a favor to Leng Jiaojiao. If she spread the news of today's incident, how could Leng Jiaojiao have the face to invite guests to her house in the future?

I didn't expect her to arrive so timely. It must be that bitch who went to tip off the girl. I thought she would be obedient after slapping her twice, so I didn't send anyone to check on her and just let her get away.
