Gu Qianqian was quite frightened, and even though Lu Zhanbei comforted her, she still developed a fever in the middle of the night.
Worried about her condition, the old lady stayed in her room late into the night. It wasn't until the Gu Family's private doctor arrived and checked her pulse, saying she would be fine after a few days of rest, that the old lady returned to her own quarters assured.
However, when the news reached Ji Tinglan and Gu Sitian, their reactions were quite the opposite. One burst into laughter and the other scoffed gleefully, "Have you heard? That girl got really scared!"
"Serves her right!"
With a vicious tone, Gu Sitian covered her mouth and laughed again, "Trying to take over such a big house, let's see if she has the destiny for it."
Gu Sitian was never inclined to wish Gu Qianqian well, so the news of her falling ill from fright was something she couldn't be happier about.
However, gloating was one thing, and concern was another.
