The assistant waited in the driver's seat for a long time. When the partition was finally lowered, Gu Minghuai ordered, "Let's go home first."
After that, the car was silent. The assistant quickly drove to the main house of the Gu family. As the butler came forward and saw Ning Shan, he couldn't even maintain his professionalism. He was greatly surprised and asked, "This young lady is..."
"Ning Shan," Gu Minghuai briefly introduced, "Find her a guest room. From today onwards, she may have to stay here for a period of time."
Ning Shan nodded at the butler timidly and received a smile.
After Gu Minghuai left her with the butler, he went straight into the study. The butler took her to the second floor and pushed open a door to a room. He introduced, "This is the room next to the fourth master. Can you stay here for the time being?"
The interior of the room was magnificently decorated, and there was even an oversized bathroom. Ning Shan was overjoyed, exclaiming in surprise.
The butler said, "Miss Ning, you're the first woman the fourth master brought home. If there's anything you feel that hasn't been taken good care of, feel free to mention it to me."
Ning Shan was slightly uneasy. In actual fact, she and Gu Minghuai could only be considered as "Kidnapper and hostage", but these details could not be told to outsiders. She nodded and said softly, "These are already very good."
The butler saw that she looked tired and said sensibly, "Then you should rest for a while. If there's anything, I'll come and inform you."
Seeing that the person had left, Ning Shan immediately sat on the two-and-a-half-meter bed. Her body tilted and she fell asleep unknowingly.
Dinner was enjoyed by Ning Shan alone. Gu Minghuai didn't come downstairs, and no one told her where the man went. She turned her irritation into appetite and ate two big bowls of rice. In the end, she was so full that she felt overwhelmed.
Just as she was hesitating about whether she should have left the leftovers, a sharp female voice sounded from the side, "Is this the woman that fourth brother brought back?"
Ning Shan looked to the side and saw a man and woman holding each other in their arms. The man's facial features were somewhat similar to Gu Minghuai's, but they were far inferior. The woman's chest and bottoms were voluptuous, and her clothes were so tight that they looked like they were about to explode. Her heels were so high that they made her seem even taller than the man.
After they walked closer, they sized up Ning Shan. Their eyes were filled with malice and disdain. The woman said, "It seems that fourth brother's preference is not that good."
Ning Shan stood up and looked at the butler beside her. The butler immediately introduced, "These two are the fourth master's eldest brother and sister-in-law."
"Eldest brother, sister-in-law, hello," Ning Shan greeted politely and then introduced herself.
The two of them had obviously investigated Ning Shan before they came, but the investigation was not thorough. Thus, the eldest son of the Gu family frowned and asked, "Ning Shan? Wasn't her name Ning Yun?"
The Gu family's eldest sister-in-law sighed and said, "Fourth brother really is too much. Why didn't he just say that he liked her? He even had to wait for mother to reject the marriage before bringing her home. Wouldn't that be a slap to our mother's face?"
Then, she turned her head and asked Ning Shan with a serious expression, "Gu Minghuai asked you to follow him without a name or status. Are you really willing?"
Faced with such a question, Ning Shan took a deep breath and answered, "Ning Yun is my twin sister."
The husband and wife looked at each other. Sister-in-law burst out laughing, "If that's the case, you're even worse than Ning Yun!"
She leaned over and tugged at Ning Shan's clothes. She looked at the face of the person in front of her repeatedly and said, "It's true that she's good-looking, but there are many other beautiful girls out there. What kind of seductive tricks did you use?"
Before she finished her sentence, she saw the hickey on Ning Shan's neck and could not help but clicked her tongue, she turned to look at brother Gu. "Hubby, no wonder fourth brother didn't like the ladies from the noble families that I introduced. It turns out that his preference is like this..."
"You don't have to worry about my preference, sister-in-law." Gu Minghuai's ice-cold voice sounded from upstairs.
