Chapter 553: Chapter 563: A Chance Encounter with a Scumbag

Originally, I didn’t want to climb the wall, but in the end, because the front gate had been locked by two old maids, I fulfilled Lin Qianqing’s dream of climbing walls.

Looking up at the wall about two or three meters high, it was easy to climb up, but not so easy to come down.

That girl, Lin Qianqing, simply jumped down from the base of the wall, but for someone like Gu Youyou who had never climbed a wall before, the height was indeed intimidating, and it made her tremble with fear in her hands and feet.

Do we really have to do it this way? I can’t happily play anymore.

"Hey, hey, cousin, I’m too scared to jump."

"Seeing you like this, no wonder you can’t jump. Stop your legs from shaking, hey."

Dammit, I don’t want to shake, alright?

This is two meters high, two meters high, and I’m a frail young lady who almost kicked the bucket last night.

"How about you catch me?" Gu Youyou suggested, "You know, I’m not heavy."

Lin Qianqing couldn’t help but roll her eyes, greatly disappointed in Gu Youyou, "Cousin, you came from the village, how can you not even match me?"

"I’m a patient." Gu Youyou reminded her.

Oh right, she forgot that her cousin had been sick all this time and had never done any farm work.

"Fine, jump then, I’ll catch you," Lin Qianqing gritted her teeth and said.

She spread her arms wide, ready to face whatever comes.

At worst, she would just be flattened by her cousin, who wasn’t heavy since she was so skinny.

"Then make sure you catch me well, here I come."

Gu Youyou figured, since she already screwed up once, doing it one more time wouldn’t matter.

After preparing herself, she took a deep breath, aimed, and closed her eyes as she jumped.

Only to hear Lin Qianqing scream, and before Gu Youyou could think any further, she had already landed in the sturdy arms of someone else.

Uh, this doesn’t feel right?

Gu Youyou quickly opened her eyes only to find herself in the arms of a strange man, not her cousin Lin Qianqing.

F*ck me, this is so awkward, Gu Youyou thought at that moment.

She had thought that only the four of them would know about today’s ordeal and that a fifth person wouldn’t find out, but as soon as she got over the wall, she was caught red-handed by the fifth person.

"Miss Lin, shouldn’t you be in the front hall attending the ceremony? Why are you here? What’s going on?"

"Jie... Jie Er-ge?" Lin Qianqing was extremely embarrassed, pulling Gu Youyou back as they retreated, laughing awkwardly, "We were wandering in the garden and got lost, so this is a misunderstanding."

Hearing Lin Qianqing’s address, Gu Youyou realized this man was that scumbag, and she couldn’t help but lift her head to seriously look at the man.

The man was lean and tall. Dressed in dark green clothes, his handsome face was as refined as jade.

What a classic beauty; no wonder Miss Du had once loved him so deeply.

Indeed, if there was no love, why would one care about a parent’s dying wish if both parties were unwilling? They would have escaped early on.

"Lost? A misunderstanding?" Then how do you explain climbing walls?

Jie Er Young Master’s gaze moved back and forth between Gu Youyou and Lin Qianqing, finally resting on Gu Youyou.

He recognized Miss Lin, but he didn’t recognize this young lady.

Since he was focusing on her, Gu Youyou had no choice but to brace herself and explain.

This man had a sharp gaze, and if she told an outright lie, he would certainly not believe it.

After a moment’s thought, she curtsied slightly, and said calmly, "Wandering in the garden is true, you can ask the third young lady. We indeed wandered into this yard inadvertently and couldn’t find our way back."

Gu Youyou looked behind at the neglected and dilapidated yard, and added, "Luckily, we saw a maid come out of this yard, so we approached her to ask for directions. But without saying a word, she knelt down before us and said her master had been ill for many days, and without a doctor, feared she might lose her life. She begged us to save her master."
