The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 346

Chapter 346: 186 Happiness Pulse (Second Watch)_2

Gu Jinyu was always patient and caring towards those who could never surpass him.

However, Lady Ling had always been a threat to Gu Jinyu.

After the death of the Yao family, Lady Ling strived to legitimize herself. She worked diligently in the mansion for over a decade, pleasing Madam Gu and the Gu brothers to the point where they would do her bidding, and she was indeed just a step away from achieving her goal.

Nevertheless, Gu Jinyu was not eager to see this happen.

The two engaged in a fierce contest that turned their world upside down, and as a result, the person of his dream became the scapegoat in their battle.

Now, with the presence of the Yao family and himself, they were faced with a more worrying enemy, and ceased fighting against each other.

...

“Hmm.” Gu Jiao murmured.

The Yao family was concerned that her daughter was distressed by Lady Ling’s issues, and cast a resentful glance at the housemaid before telling Gu Jiao, “Learn from past mistakes. I won’t be deceived again. I’ll handle it, you don’t have to worry.”

Lady Ling had been managing in the Capital City for over a decade and with the mighty Ling family backing her up, it would be difficult for the Yao family to defeat her in a short time.

“Alright, I won’t worry.” Gu Jiao replied. She took two bottles of medicine from the first aid kit, removed the packaging, and placed them in a porcelain bottle, “This is a new batch of medicine. Use them as you did previously.”

The medicine seemed slightly different from the previous batch, but since Gu Jiao had changed the medicine once before, Yao didn’t harbor any suspicions.

Gu Jiao paused for a moment, as if remembering something, and said to the Yao family, “Oh, right, my aunt asked me to pass you something.”

“What?” Yao asked.

Gu Jiao opened the small box and took out a packet of medicine powder: “My aunt said you would understand.”

Upon receiving the packet, Yao’s heart began to pound.

Had the old lady given her a new strategy?

She hadn’t had a chance to ask her for advice yesterday, yet the old lady seemed to have already seen through her dilemma.

A glint in Yao’s eyes, she cleared her throat and said, “Ah, I… My yard is infested with rats. I asked my aunt for some rat poison.”

Gu Jiao: “Oh.”

Gu Jiao got up and excused herself.
