After my luck was stolen, I led my whole family to defy fate and change our destiny.

It was completely dark. Diamond-like stars dotted the inky night sky.

When Wang Fugui returned, he saw Gu Yu'an in Gu Linglong's room, holding a book and reading something.

He was a little curious. When he flew over, Gu Yu'an had just closed his book. He gently poked Gu Linglong's face, tucked the blanket around her, and then went out.

A flash of light appeared on Gu Linglong's body. Wang Fugui rubbed his eyes. Was he seeing things?

It seems to see its host glowing, oh, my eyes are playing tricks on me!

Wang Fugui suddenly exclaimed "Ah!"

"Oh dear, I almost forgot the important matter! Lord White Tiger, wake up! Your aunt has been imprisoned by Cui Sheng!"

Wang Fugui gently shook Gu Linglong's arm, and Gu Linglong, still asleep, shifted her body restlessly.

Don't steal my chicken leg!

Wang Fugui: "I didn't steal your chicken leg! Get up! Your aunt is injured, and I don't know if that scumbag will even call a doctor for her."

What? You're trying to steal my chicken leg? Well then, you're going to die, you dog!

"Bang" sound.

Gu Linglong slapped Wang Fugui against the wall.

"Lord White Tiger, you..."

Wang Fugui's vision blurred and he fainted in less than five seconds.

early morning.

When Gu Linglong woke up, she saw Wang Fugui looking at her with a resentful expression.

Oh my god...you're crazy! You scared me!

Wang Fugui, hands on his hips, though angry, didn't forget the important matter: "Lord White Tiger, yesterday Cui Sheng pushed your aunt, and her head bled a lot."

What? Why didn't you tell me yesterday?

It would have been better if he hadn't said anything, because once he did, he got angry. Wang Fugui put his hands on his hips, spun around several times, and pointed at the big bump on his head: "I told you, you were asleep last night, and you even knocked me unconscious in your sleep!"

【hey-hey……】

She was wondering why Wang Fugui was staring at her with a resentful look so early in the morning, and she smiled sheepishly.

Hehe, I'm asleep, aren't I? Next time you need something, just wake me up, and I promise I won't hit you.

"Hmph," Wang Fugui whispered in Gu Linglong's ear to rest.

At this moment, the maid had already dressed Gu Linglong and carried her to Su Xiuran's courtyard.

[That scumbag Choi Seung actually dared to push my aunt? And my aunt got hurt?]

What to do, what to do?

[This is infuriating!]

After hearing the news Wang Fugui sent back, Gu Linglong kept muttering to herself the whole way, her little hands clenched into fists and waving in the air in a hurry.

Her little mouth opened and closed as if trying to speak to remind her mother, but instead, her pink lips spat out saliva with a "plop plop" sound.

Ugh, I'm so angry! I'm so angry!

Su Xiuran paused in her tea-drinking sip. Her sister-in-law had actually been beaten?

She put down her teacup and rushed out, saying, "Chunhe and Douzhu, take what Miss needs; we're going to the Cui residence."

Chunhe asked in confusion, "Madam, didn't we just return from the Cui residence yesterday?"

Su Xiuran didn't know how to explain, so she only said, "If the son-in-law finds out that his sister-in-law has discovered the truth about her ability to have children, he might be in danger."

"Oh no, we're too late! Hurry, hurry!"

[Mother, you're like a mind reader, you know everything...]

Su Xiuran: "..."

Seeing how anxious the lady was, Chunhe also became anxious and hurriedly packed her things.

Douzhu chimed in, "Madam, if Madam Cui is in danger, we women might not be able to get her out."

Su Xiuran paused, yes, she was so anxious she was confused.

[Bring along your eldest and second eldest brothers]

Douzhu: "Let the eldest and second young masters go too."

Su Xiuran nodded: "Yes, yes, let's go to the eldest young master's room first."

Su Xiuran hurried towards Gu Yu'an's room with swift steps.

Gu Yu'an was reading a book.

"dong dong dong"

A rapid knocking sounded on the door.

"Enter"

As soon as Su Xiuran entered, she went straight to the point: "An'er, your aunt was beaten by Cui Sheng. She's bruised and swollen, and can't even get out of bed. Go and bring your aunt back quickly."

Gu Yu'an stood up in shock: "Cui Sheng hit my aunt?"

"Yeah, they were beaten so badly, they can't even walk. What are we going to do?"

Douzhu and Chunhe exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock. The lady's imagination was too rich.

Gu Yu'an walked around the desk and calmed his mother down to sit: "Mother, don't panic. Aunt is still Cui Sheng's wife. We can't take her away by forcing our way in like this."

Su Xiuran: "Then what should we do? Are we just going to abandon it?"

Gu Yu'an walked to the window, putting his hands behind his back: "No, we must intervene, but there's only one way."

Su Xiuran: "You child, tell me what's the solution? Are you trying to drive your mother crazy?"

Gu Yu'an: "Mother, don't worry. Only after they divorce can we take Aunt away."

Su Xiuran calmed down and thought for a moment: "I'm afraid it's not that easy."

"He has no choice but to get a divorce."

Su Xiuran frowned: "I'm afraid Cui Sheng will use the one of the seven grounds for divorce—childlessness—to divorce your aunt. That would definitely damage her reputation."

Gu Yu'an scoffed, "Does he think there are no men in the Gu family just because my father isn't here? My aunt can only get a divorce, and if anyone is to divorce, it can only be my aunt who divorces him, not him."

Su Xiuran's mouth gaped slightly. How come her eldest son is so unconventional, just like her daughter?

Since ancient times, it has always been the husband who divorces the wife; how could a woman divorce her husband?

However, she didn't find anything wrong with it. There was no reason for her daughter, a member of the Gu family, not to fight back after being bullied to this extent.

Gu Yu'an sat back down at his desk, took out some paper, and wrote: "Mother, I'm writing to the Sixth Prince to borrow two people. He's from a sect and has many capable and extraordinary people around him. One of them can accompany you to the Cui residence to demand the person, ensuring your safety. That way, I can feel more at ease."

Su Xiuran nodded: "And the last one?"

Gu Yu'an put down his brush and gently blew away the ink: "I'll take the other one to see my dear uncle."

Su Xiuran gently placed her arm on her eldest son's, somewhat worried: "Be careful not to cause any deaths; after all, he is a government official."

Gu Yu'an gently patted Su Xiuran's hand: "Don't worry, Mother, I know what I'm doing. I'll go with Li Yao."

Gu Yu'an thought for a moment: "You'd better not bring your little sister. What if a conflict breaks out?"

Gu Linglong panicked upon hearing this and slapped her chubby little hands in protest.

No, I want to go! I want to go! I don't care! If Mom doesn't take me, then my older brother has to take me! I want to go see what's going on!

Su Xiuran was soft-hearted after all. She knew that her daughter loved excitement the most. Cui Sheng was a court official, and she herself was a first-rank imperial consort personally appointed by the emperor.

Even if he couldn't take his sister-in-law with him, Cui Sheng wouldn't dare do anything to a first-rank imperial consort unless he wanted to quit his official post.

"Take it with you. I don't feel comfortable leaving it at home. You go deliver the message first, and I'll breastfeed Linglong while I do."

[Oh dear, my goodness! You've finally realized your daughter hasn't had any milk yet! I'm starving!]

How could Su Xiuran forget? She just asked Douzhu and the others to pack the milk and feed the baby in the car to save time.

But when she looked into her daughter's big eyes, she still felt inexplicably guilty.
