Gu Huayan's eyes were filled with anger, but she maintained a faint smile on her face. Her actions and demeanor were completely different from her previous outburst. Upon seeing her enter, the maidservants all rushed forward to welcome her.

After so many years, everyone in the family treated her as their master. Although most people understood that she did not have the bloodline of the Gu family in her body, she was still the adopted daughter of Gu Yannan. Furthermore, compared to Gu Qingyi, who had been living in the underworld for more than ten years, no matter if it was her behavior, appearance, or even her personality, everyone was willing to believe that she was the Young Miss of the Gu palace.

That's right, one had grown up in the Gu King's Manor and had received a good upbringing. The other had been a rogue since he was a child. It was obvious that she was a wild girl. And among these two people, one of them looked warm and gentle while the other looked dignified and beautiful. The other was a person with an unremarkable appearance, so much so that … There were even some that were a bit ugly, and there was not a single trace of nobility on their bodies. With such a comparison, it was obvious that people who grew up to be good-looking were much more popular.

To put it bluntly, this was a world where one looked at one's face.

Whether it was in terms of birth or bloodline, Gu Qingyi was impeccable and firmly suppressed Gu Huaiyan. However … But the only failure was her appearance …

Even though she was the direct descendant of the Gu family, there was no doubt that she was the daughter of the King's Manor.

But... There were still many people in the estate who used a strange method of treating her too well. To put it bluntly, everyone saw that she really did not look like someone from the Gu Estate.

Even if the prince was in his middle years, he could still maintain his upright posture and his stiff facial features could make people lose their memory, not to mention that devastatingly beautiful Princess Anping.

Especially those who knew the two of them, upon seeing Gu Qingyi's appearance, they truly did not dare to believe in the slightest that she was the child of these two.

If they really counted, everyone would rather believe that Gu Huaiyan was the daughter of the prince and princess.

"Lady Huaiyan is here."

Seeing Gu Huaiyan, the servant girl stepped forward and bowed.

Originally, before Gu Qingyi came back, there was only one girl in the entire Gu Clan, Gu Qingyi. Everyone called her 'Miss'.

However, ever since Gu Qingyi had returned, Prince Gu had directly said that she was the first-rate daughter of the Gu palace. Since this was the case, it was naturally not good for everyone to continue calling her Miss Gu Huaiyan, so they could only call her Miss Huaiyan.

Although it was just a very slight change, it still made Gu Huayan feel extremely uncomfortable. In her heart, she hated Gu Qingyi even more, but on the surface, she still had to maintain a faint expression, "En, that's right, after so many days, Royal Father has some thoughts, so I came over to take a look."

Indeed, ever since Gu Qingyi had come back, she hadn't seen Gu Yinian for a very long time.

Actually, before Gu Qingyi came back, she didn't see Gu Yannan very often. It should be said that while Princess Anping was still alive, she spent most of her time at home. However, ever since Princess Anping had left, his time at home had decreased. Moreover, at that time, she was the only girl in the mansion, so it was only natural that she would meet Gu Yinian. Although Gu Yinian would also say something to her, he would at least act like a father and care for her for her.

However, ever since Gu Qingyi had returned …

Yes, in Gu Huayan's opinion, everything had changed after Gu Qingyi had returned. If Gu Qingyi hadn't returned, the incident that would have caused this would have gone without a hitch. And this was all Gu Qingyi's fault. It was all the fault of that little slut Ang. Her appearance had messed everything up.

"Is that so? Your highness has …"

The servant girl also felt some sympathy for Gu Huaiyan, especially after seeing her lower her head so obediently.

He really was a pitiful guy. No matter what, he wasn't his biological son. Thinking about that legitimate eldest daughter, she would swagger in even if she came. Then wait outside with that mask you used.

Thinking of this, the servant girl began to sympathize with Gu Huaiyan.

But... After all, this wasn't something that they could solve …

However, what they didn't know was that Gu Qingyi actually hadn't stopped them from informing him, but rather, Gu Yinian had sent someone to call her over.

Gu Yinian had called her over for a purpose. Naturally, it was different from Gu Huayan's uninvited appearance. However, these maidservants only saw what they saw and didn't know what else was inside. Naturally, they leaned towards Gu Huayan.

"This... I haven't seen my father for a long time, I just want to see him. royal father has been out all year round and it is rare for me to have the chance to return. "

As she spoke, Gu Huayan lowered her head slightly. She looked like she was about to cry. As she fiddled with her fingers, her white fingers quickly blushed, causing one's heart to ache for her.

Most of the maidservants had watched Gu Huayan grow up. When she was still young, she had also been favored by Prince Gu for a long time. At that time, Gu Huaiyan had also been in his hands, and he had carried her to the princess every day …

At that time, many people had secretly suspected that this girl was the illegitimate daughter of the prince.

Otherwise... Otherwise, why would the prince like this little girl so much, but the princess would never like her …

If it was only this, of course, no one would dare to say it out loud. They would only discuss it in private. Afterwards, seeing that the princess just didn't like this little girl, the prince slowly gave up and rarely brought her down in front of the princess. Only then did the prince slowly regain his calm.

Afterwards, the princess was gone, and the king had sunk into depression. Gradually, he rarely came back, and all his doubts were slowly dispelled.

Especially in these past few years, the prince had never treated her differently. He only treated her as an ordinary person, so this suspicion was slowly forgotten.

However, when they saw Gu Ruoyun today, they couldn't help having this thought in their hearts.

That's right, what a pitiful person. Such a beautiful girl, if she really had parents outside, how could she bear not to have children like that?

With such looks, such a talented student, even an ordinary family would be able to find a good husband.

If there really were parents outside, how could they have not come to visit for so many years?

That was the reason why there were so many people suspecting that Gu Yan Nian was the daughter of Gu Yan Nian. Otherwise, even if she was brought back from outside, with her family outside, she would at least come to visit.

How could there be such heartless parents in this world?

Most of these maidservants had been in the Gu Royal Mansion for many years, and many of them had only grown up watching Gu Huaiyan. They were very clear about the relationship between her and her; no one had really come to see her.

So...

"Sigh, this …" "This servant just …"

A pitiful child might really be Prince Gu's blood and bones, but … But it was useless as his status was too low. Otherwise … That was the bottle cap from back then, you pig. If something really happened outside, with Princess Anping's identity, she wouldn't agree.

It was said that after having had such a young master for a year, Princess Anping had immediately fainted.

It was only after the prince had knelt outside the door for half a month that the princess finally stopped breathing.

But from then on, he would never see the prince again.

If this child was really a child of the prince outside, the prince definitely wouldn't dare to say it out loud.

The more everyone thought about it, the more they felt that it should be like this.

Why else would Prince find Gu Qingyi with so many children?

Furthermore, judging from Gu Qingyi's appearance, she had been the beloved of the ladies for the past few days. Even so, she still somewhat resembled a prince.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt as if she had seen something that no one else knew about.

No matter what, he was still the prince's child. Speaking of him, the prince was also very heartless. He actually dared not admit his child just like that. Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but sigh and feel endless sympathy for Gu Huayan.

"Miss, it's not that the servants won't let you in, but … "It's just that there are guests inside."

Deep sympathy filled his heart for Gu Huaiyan. At the same time, he felt that he might be right, so …

Everyone was very dissatisfied to see a weak girl receiving such unfair treatment.

However, such things were all decided by their master. As servants, they could not say that they could not do anything. The only thing they could do was to tell Gu Le the truth.

Yes, it was not that they were not allowed to enter, but that there were guests inside.

Furthermore, the identity of the guest inside was not simple.

They had been waiting outside the whole time, but they could still hear a lot of activity inside.

At the same time, he felt even more sympathetic towards Gu Huaiyan.

In terms of age, she was clearly older, but in terms of marriage, she was the first to arrive due to Gu Huaiyan.

But... No matter what, no matter how good-looking they were, it was useless. No matter how important the status was in a family like this, it was still their status that was the most important.

Gu Qingyi had her identity in his sights, and Gu Huayan, to be frank, was nothing more than an adopted daughter.

That's right, she was just an adopted daughter. Moreover, she was an adopted daughter that had never received Princess Anping's approval. To put it bluntly, her reputation didn't make sense.

"So it's like that. I wonder what kind of guests are inside?"

With a slight frown, Gu Huayan pretended that she didn't know anything as she looked at the maidservants with a puzzled expression.

Of course, in her heart, she was very clear on who the person was.

However, on the surface, he still pretended that he didn't know anything.

Hmph, it's not just Prince Lian's family. Don't think that she can't see the anger in these maidservants' gazes when they look at you with sympathy.

Did a bunch of ignorant fools really think that they were a rarity of Prince Lian's manor?

He was just an unfavoured person, what good could he get?
