Chapter 189: 122 Adventures in the Empty Sky (First Update)_2

Gu Jiao nodded with a smile: “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Just a few words later, they arrived at the mansion. Gu Jiao was more than satisfied with it.

As the two were about to enter, a carriage came from the other end of the alley and stopped in front of their house.

The coachman tightened the reins and jumped off the horse, asking the duo, “Excuse me, is this Xiao Jieyuan’s home?”

Xiao Liulang took a look at the emblem on the carriage; his eyes slightly chilled.

Gu Jiao asked: “What happened? Is there something wrong?”

The coachman cordially explained, “It’s like this, our manager heard that Xiao Jieyuan was in the Capital City and had me bring some items over. The winters come early here, so next month we should start burning coal. The carriage is full of top-quality silver coal. There are also some materials and cotton stuffing, all very warm. Should I bring these items directly into your house?”

Gu Jiao glanced at Xiao Liulang.

Xiao Liulang’s expression was as cold as a knife.

Gu Jiao told the coachman, “No need, we have enough silver coal, and we don’t need any cotton-padded bedding. Please take them back to your manager.”

The coachman hesitated, “But Manager Liu said…”

“There are no buts. If we ask you to take them back, you take them back.” Gu Jiao responded indifferently, then she and Xiao Liulang entered the house and closed the gate.

Eventually, the coachman left.

Gu Jiao looked toward Xiao Liulang and said, “We just moved here yesterday. Only the coachman from the Marquis’s Residence and Zhang Bao knew our address. Manager Liu is very well-informed.”

Xiao Liulang responded indifferently, “We don’t need to pay him any mind.”

With that, he turned around and went to organize the books in the study room.

Gu Jiao touched her chin.

Could it be that someone was keeping an eye on them?

Who would dare to stare at her people?

The coachman drove his carriage out of the alley and arrived at another corner where Manager Liu waited.

“How did it go?” Manager Liu asked.

The coachman responded, “The young master didn’t accept it.”

Manager Liu laughed, “This young master is more stubborn than I imagined.”
