<h4>Chapter 486: Elder Miss, a Thief</h4>


    Mrs. Gu was speaking to Gu Chaoyan and Gu Xiuying.


    Gu Chaoyan did not even frown, but Gu Xiuying next to her showed a ttering smile as she nodded constantly. “Don’t worry, Madame Gu, I will keep everything in order.”


    Mrs. Gu red at Gu Chaoyan. She stopped being displeased, showed a long face and said, “Let’s go.”


    Then they went onto their own wagon.


    Gu Chaoyan and Gu Xiuying were receiving the same treatment at the Gu Mansion. They both were arranged to take the most shabby wagon that held them tightly together. No one had everined that it was against any tradition. After all in their heart, Gu Ruxue was the real lineal daughter who had the right to have her own wagon.


    Gu Chaoyan did not care at all. She went into the wagon, and then she had her eyes closed for rest in the wagon.


    Gu Xiuying was the same – she constantly threw a look at Gu Chaoyan.


    Well, she expected to be the assistant of Gu Chaoyan’s Adulthood Ceremony, but she was too proud to ask. She expected Gu Chaoyan to beg her instead. So she felt rather restless on the way.


    Gu Chaoyan, however, behaved as if she had forgotten about her Adulthood Ceremony, and went off the wagon directly as they arrived. She had no intention of sucking up to Gu Xiuying.


    Gu Xiuying stomped her feet, looking very unconvinced. She had made up her mind. Since Gu Chaoyan refused to ask her personally, she would humiliate herself once and ask her instead. She was going to do that when they went home.


    Gu Chaoyan was definitely not going to turn her down, once she asked.


    She did that just because she found Gu Chaoyan extremely stupid – how could she have no idea of inviting the guests? It must be because her mother passed away too early, so no one was reminding her of anything. How pathetic.


    When Gu Xiuying managed to console herself, a smile hovered over her face again. She walked into the Min Mansion following Mrs. Gu.


    The Min Mansion was indeed a noble family in the Saint Divine Land.


    The family was extremely huge and pleasant. Their banquets did not normally receive many guests. For example, the Gu Mansion had no qualification of doing so in the past, but now they did.


    However, Mrs. Gu did not care about them. She went to meet Gu Ruxue instead.


    So Gu Chaoyan and Gu Xiuying had nowhere else to go, but to linger about in the garden of the Min Mansion. It was not until the servants of the Min Mansion came to them that they got their own seats.


    Gu Chaoyan had just taken the seats when some eyes were staring at her.


    Elder Miss was said to be chubby, easy to be recognized – the fattest girl must be her! However, as the Elder Miss became thinner, she became prettier and more easily recognized too – she had a red birthmark on the corner of her left eye.


    That must be the rumored Elder Miss. Therefore, the moment Gu Chaoyan took her seat, many people started to stare at her.


    Someone said directly, “The Min Family are now getting less particr about who to invite. It is said that the Elder Miss of the Gu Family has the habit of stealing servants’ stuff, so the Min Family have to watch out for what they have now, in case they lose something. The Min Family have more treasure than any of those servants she used to steal from, what are we supposed to do when something goes missing.”


    It was Madame Deng, the wife of the Officer of the Board of Rites and Ceremonies. She was a straightforwarddy who justined since she did not like sharing a table with Gu Chaoyan.
