Since it was decided, Old Granny Zhang, not one to dawdle, immediately went inside to pack her luggage.
Wang Yongzhu, seeing Old Granny Zhang packing, hurried to help with Song Chongjin, when they heard someone from Song Hong outside say that Lord Duke wanted to speak with Song Chongjin.
The three exchanged glances, and Song Chongjin understood that Song Hong probably noticed Gu Zikai visiting several times today and grew suspicious, wanting to question him.
This made Wang Yongzhu's already hesitant feelings immediately vanish.
She gave a look, signaling Song Chongjin to follow Song Hong's people.
Seeing only the mother and daughter left in the room, Old Granny Zhang held Wang Yongzhu's hand and whispered, "I know you want me to stay with the Gu Family for my well-being. Staying here in this residence will only drag you down. While that easygoing stepfather of yours seems agreeable now, there's no telling what he'd do if truly threatened."
