Chapter 17
Uneasy and kind-hearted
Gu Sheng was wearing a dark blue robe and a maroon belt today. Her hair was neatly tied on top of her head. She was much more solemn than her usual attire.
If he were walking on the road, people would probably only think that he was a noble son of some family, rather than a servant of the Earl's Mansion.
Zhong Ning naturally noticed it at this time. She looked Gu Sheng up and down with a doubtful tone in her tone.
"Huh? Have you just gone out?"
Zhong Ning knew that Gu Sheng was very concerned about his lost memory and was still investigating his life experience. Unfortunately, after more than three years, there was still no clue at all.
Thinking of this, Zhong Ning asked again.
"Have you found any clues this time?"
Gu Sheng didn't seem to want to discuss this topic with her, so he just shook his head and said "no", then looked straight at Zhong Ning and said in a deep tone.
"Didn't you say you didn't want the Shen family's things before? Why do you suddenly want to take them back?"
Zhong Ning looked a little embarrassed and hesitated.
"Does that require a lot of money? I don't have it yet. I'll wait..."
"No need, I have made acquaintance with a group of brothers in the capital in the past few years, just ask them for help."
Zhong Ning nodded and was about to say something when he was suddenly pulled into the room by Ming Yue, who was filled with indignation.
"It's getting late, I'll go back first."
Zhong Ning looked up at Gu Sheng. After a moment of confusion, she realized that he should be talking about Shen Li, and she agreed.
"It's not Li'er, she said, and..."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Gu Sheng with her eyes widened, as if waiting for him to give an explanation.
"Okay, I'll go find the person you need outside the house, so you don't have to worry about it."
Mingyue came rushing over from a distance and suddenly interrupted what Zhong Ning was about to say.
"Maybe I heard wrong."
Gu Sheng ignored Mingyue's tense look and only spoke to Zhong Ning.
After Ming Yue came closer, she looked at Zhong Ning and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was nothing unusual about her.
Having said this, Zhong Ning looked around guiltily. After confirming that no one was around, he approached Gu Sheng and said cautiously.
Zhong Ning was a little surprised: "Oh, then..."
"Well, Li'er is quite smart."
After Zhong Ning finished speaking, he was still a little embarrassed. After all, the idea of abandoning his family and career was really a bit deviant, so he added.
"But I haven't thought about it yet."
"What's going on? I'm so angry."
As soon as he heard that he was going to find someone outside the house, Zhong Ning had other worries.
Gu Sheng looked back at her calmly and said in a calm voice.
"Li'er said he wanted to sell the property and leave the capital."
"Madam, madam!"
After the words fell, the air was silent for a while, and then Gu Sheng's slightly meaningful words rang out.
"It's nothing, because the housekeeper said he didn't even look for me."
"I didn't expect that not only would her voice improve, but her mind would also be bright."
Mingyue: "You!"
Zhong Ning saw her walking in a hurry and thought she had something important to do.
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng's complexion improved inexplicably, and he stopped going around in circles with Zhong Ning.
Mingyue muttered as she walked inside.
"It's time to go back a long time ago. He runs to Madam's yard every day. Who knows what he is worried about."
She said this so straightforwardly that Zhong Ning frowned. Gu Sheng was a good person and was kind to the Earl's Mansion. Zhong Ning secretly couldn't bear to see others misunderstanding him, so he hurriedly explained.
"I invited him here just now, and he was always asking for help. Gu Sheng is a good person, don't say that to him."
