The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 260

Chapter 260 -150: Defending in a Domineering Way (Part 1)

Gu Jiao didn’t know, she was only guessing.

The token was picked up by Xue Ningxiang from the spot where Xiao Liulang had fainted. Both the handsome monk and the princess claimed it to be the token of the Marquis Residency of Xuanping, they mustn’t have been mistaken.

This man was also referred to as young master Xiao Liulang.

All the pieces of information together led to the question she had posed to steward Liu earlier.

Steward Liu had come to her this time with the intention of using her to coax their young master back to their mansion, he had no intention to hide his own identity, so he confirmed,” That’s correct, the young master is from the Marquis Residence of Xuanping.”

Gu Jiao took a moment to digest this information: “Oh.”

Oh?

Steward Liu was a bit confused, this wasn’t her first time hearing it, was it? Her reaction was awfully nonchalant!

Gu Jiao was not someone who cared about status. Whether Xiao Liulang was the master or a servant of the Marquis’ Residence held no difference to her.

However, there was one thing she did not understand.

“If he is the young master of the Marquis Residence of Xuanping, why is he unwilling to return with you?” _{ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com}

This was not her trying to pry into each other’s secrets, but the other party had approached her, she couldn’t just blindly give up her husband, could she?

Steward Liu sighed: “It’s a long story to tell at this time, if young madam has time, may we have a seat in the tea house.”

There was a tea house nearby. Gu Jiao didn’t refuse and went with steward Liu.

Steward Liu muttered to himself, the young madam isn’t too sensible, is she? She simply follows a stranger without even checking his token or anything?

If steward Liu knew about Gu Jiao’s abilities, he would be the one who needed to worry.

Steward Liu felt indifferent to Gu Jiao, harboring not a hint of ill-intent, nor had he considered coming between the young couple.

He believed the Marquis wouldn’t either.

The Marquis was already powerful enough on his own, he didn’t need to rely on a son to secure the relationship between the Marquis Residence of Xuanping and various significant families through marriage alliances.

As for whether their statuses were equal…

Although brought up in the countryside, she was a legitimate daughter from the Marquis household after all, matched to the young master… it was probably just barely acceptable!

Steward Liu reserved a private room on the second floor.
