"Nian Nian, forget it, I'm not seriously hurt."
Taotao didn't want to cause trouble and tried to pull Xia Yinian back.
Continuing this argument would surely alarm the people outside.
Xia Yinian was not from the Gu Family, she was just an outsider, but Gu Ziqi was different; she was truly Lady Gu.
If they kept fighting, the one who would suffer would be Xia Yinian.
Before Xia Yinian could say anything, Gu Ziqi, who was just smiling pleasantly, suddenly turned grim.
"I won't just not apologize, I'll continue to whip her. Can you do anything about it?"
She raised the whip, about to strike.
Xia Yinian got a fright and hurriedly shielded Taotao in her arms.
Unexpectedly, Gu Ziqi didn't whip Taotao but lashed the horse next to them.
The horse neighed painfully and dashed off in panic.
Xia Yinian quickly tried to get out of the stable, pulling Taotao along.
But, just as they tried to escape, Gu Ziqi's whip swiftly followed.
