The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife Chapter 167.2

Chapter 167.2

Second Owner answered, "This is Miraculous Hands Hall. I'm the Second Owner of Miraculous Hands Hall. Next door is the women’s academy."
Miraculous Hands Hall had just been opened not long ago, hence its popularity was still not high. From time to time, Second Owner would bask under the fame of the women’s academy.
Fei Shuang was clear when it came to the women’s academy.
He pondered for a moment, then added, "Why am I here?"
If he remembered correctly, he was buried under the ruins of the music house.
He also heard the yamen officer and the servant girl talking about sacrificing the storeroom in order to save the Crown Princess.
Then he passed out.
He thought he would be dead for sure...
Second Owner replied proudly, "Of course, my Little Gu rescued you!"
Due to the deepening partnership between them, calling her Gu girl was already too estranged, but calling her little sister Gu seemed to be taking advantage of her. Struck by a brainwave, Second Owner started calling her Little Gu instead.
Fei Shuang frowned, "Little… Gu?"
Gu what?
Gu Jiao?
Right, he had heard from people in the estate that that girl was working as a medicine girl in the medical hall next to the women’s academy.
But wasn't she buried under the huge slab too? How did she save him?
Besides, why would she possibly save him?
"Why did he save me?" Fei Shuang asked.
"I want to know too!" Second Owner grabbed the bag on the table and weighed it in his hand. The bag, which was full of Fei Shuang's hidden weapons, produced a jingling sound. "With so many hidden weapons on your body, obviously, you’re not a good thing!"
Fei Shuang didn't deny it.
It was true he wasn’t a good person.
If he were, he wouldn't be the number one thief in the capital.
So why on earth did she save him?
Whether she knew his true identity or not, he still set her up today.
He led her to the basement of Qingfeng Music House and let her come across the secret meeting of the Crown Princess.
What he didn’t expect was the music house to suddenly collapse.
At that time, he was hiding in a secret space behind the wall of the storeroom, and was also crushed under the rubble.
What he didn’t expect even more was that she actually guessed that he hadn’t left the storeroom and even saved him in the end.
Was she not aware that he set her up?
That couldn’t be. She was able to guess that he didn’t leave the storeroom so how could she be that stupid?
Fei Shuang hesitantly spoke, "My injury... Did she also..."
Second Owner said, "You can forget about it, you are not qualified to let my Little Gu treat your injury! Physician Song treated you! He was also the one who stitched up your wound!"
Physician Song stitched someone up for the first time, thanks to Gu Jiao’s strong encouragement. Anyway, he was in a coma, so he could do whatever he liked to him.
As a result, Physician Song made a mistake at his first try, so he quickly took it apart and sewed it again.
His stitches were quite ugly to look at too.
Of course, Second Owner wouldn’t disclose such things to patients.
Second Owner waved his hand, went over to pick up the medicine and handed it to him, "All right, stop thinking about it. I have already asked Little Gu for you."
Fei Shuang blankly took the medicine in his hand and said, "Ask… What?"
Second Owner said, "Ask her why she saved you? Does she know you or did she take a fancy to you?"
Fei Shuang choked up, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Second Owner exhorted earnestly, "Good that you know I'm talking nonsense. I’m warning you, don't start having crazy ideas towards my family’s Little Gu now just because she saved you. She's beyond your reach!"
Fei Shuang thought mockingly: Start having crazy ideas towards her? Never in his life!
Fei Shuang looked coldly at Second Owner and said, "So why on earth did she save me?"
Second Owner recalled, "When I asked her why she saved you, she looked at you and uttered four words."
Fei Shuang: "What words?"
Second Owner: "To beat you up."
Fei Shuang：“…”
……
As the sky was getting dark, the lanterns in the Marquis Estate were lit up one by one.
Gu Chenglin sat on the porch, looking towards the courtyard door.
The servant boy on the side urged, "Third young master, it's windy outside, please head back into the room first!"
Gu Chenglin replied stubbornly, "No, I have to wait for second brother!"
The servant boy let out a sigh and responded, "This servant will wait here. Please go into the room first and sit there. When the second young master comes back, this servant will call you immediately!"
Gu Chenglin adamantly refused. He was the little bully of the Marquis Ding’an Estate. Apart from the Old Marquis and Gu Changqing, no one could really control him.
The servant boy could do nothing but get a cloak and put it on his young master.
"Go to the gate and see if my second brother has come back." Gu Chenglin ordered.
"Yes, yes, yes, this servant will go at once!" The servant boy shook his head. He had lost count of how many times he ran to the gates of the Marquis Estate today.
What else could he do?
He could only resign to his fate!
Fortunately, the servant boy wasn’t disappointed this time. As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, he saw his second young master Gu Chengfeng. He saluted him excitedly and said, "Second young master, you are back. The third young master has been waiting for you all afternoon!"
"I know." Gu Chengfeng responded and stepped into the courtyard.
The servant boy scratched his head. Was the second young master in a bad mood today? Why did his expression look so cold?
"Second brother!" Gu Chenglin finally met Gu Chengfeng and stood up happily from the wheelchair.
Although there were three brothers in the Marquis Ding’an Estate, Gu Chenglin and his second brother Gu Chengfeng were the closest. One reason was that they were almost of the same age, the other was that they had been living together in the same courtyard since they could remember. Moreover, Gu Changqing was so strict that Gu Chenglin was afraid of him.
"Why are you sitting here in the cold wind?" Gu Chengfeng asked with a frown.
"Isn't it because I’m waiting for you?" Gu Chenglin curled his lips, "Where have you been all day, anyway? You disappeared as soon as the vacation started. Did you sneak out of the estate to play by yourself? You didn’t take me with you!"
"I took care of a small matter." Gu Chengfeng said casually.
"What is it?" Gu Chenglin asked seriously.
Gu Chengfeng opened his mouth and tried to come up with some excuses when he heard Gu Chenglin cried out, "Second brother! Why is your head so dirty? Ah! And your clothes! Your collar is covered with dirt! What the hell did you do? Did you fight with someone?"
Gu Chengfeng's outer robe wasn’t dirty. After all, it had been changed, but his inner clothes and middle clothes were all at home, so he hadn’t had time to replace them.
Who would have thought that this younger brother, who couldn’t do anything well, would have sharp eyes.
"It’s nothing." Gu Chengfeng denied it, pushed the door open and went into his room.
Gu Chenglin was about to follow inside but Gu Chengfeng blocked the door, saying, "I'll change my clothes."
"Change it then!" Gu Chenglin replied.
Gu Chengfeng frowningly said, "Wait for me outside."
Gu Chenglin gave him an odd look. Why? He was just changing clothes, why was he forbidding him to come into the room?
Gu Chengfeng had always been very patient with this younger brother, but today he was utterly in disarray and injured; he really didn’t have the strength to talk to him.
He closed the door and bolted it.
Gu Chenglin was dumbfounded, "What the hell? You even bolted the door?"
After Gu Chengfeng entered the room, he couldn't endure the pain anymore. He held the table with one hand and covered his stomach with the other.
The numbness effect of the medicine had passed, and he felt a severe pain in his abdomen.
What kind of quack stitched up his wound for him? Why did it hurt so much?!
"Hiss——"
He gasped in pain.
"Second brother, how are you? Grandma is still waiting for us to have dinner over there!" Gu Chenglin urged outside the door.
Gu Chengfeng endured the sharp pain, took off his bloodstained inner clothes, and said in his usual tone, "I’m coming out shortly, don't rush me."
Just then, Gu Chenglin suddenly exclaimed, "Eh? Eldest brother!"
Gu Chengfeng's hand trembled.
