Chapter 290: Refusal to Meet
Su Chen stood in the yard, smiling at the closed window.
Xiao Fei looked so cute with her hair loose.
After combing her hair, Gu Fei came out of the house.
She bowed to Su Chen.
"Mr. Su, what are you doing——"
Su Chen said gently, "I received your letter last night and rushed here overnight."
"This is all my fault. I was not thoughtful enough and brought Mr. Xu to the store. Don't worry, I will solve this problem."
Gu Fei couldn't tell whether she was touched or something else for a while. She didn't expect Su Chen to come here overnight after receiving her letter.
She could only bow deeply to Su Chen, "Young Master, you must have traveled all night, why don't I get a room to rest for a while, I'll have someone send breakfast to your room later."
Su Chen waved his hand, "No need to rest, I'm really hungry, I'll go to Ning'an Houfu to find Young Master Xu after breakfast."
"Then Young Master, please sit down for a while, I'll go to the kitchen to take a look." Gu Fei hurried to the kitchen, and Lian'er led Su Chen into the hall.
Gu Erlang was lowering the door in front.
Since Sister Hua hadn't come yet, Gu Fei hurriedly cooked white rice porridge.
She also took some flour, kneaded the dough, and rolled the dough to make noodles.
After working for a while, Gu Fei scooped the chicken soup simmering on the stove and made a few bowls of chicken soup noodles. Lian'er took it out, and when the porridge was almost done, Gu Fei brought the porridge and a few side dishes into the hall.
Su Chen brought two servants with him this time, one named Liuguang and the other named Yueying, and they sat at another table to eat noodles.
Gu Fei put the porridge and side dishes on the table, and the two servants thanked him repeatedly.
Su Chen ate here elegantly. Seeing that he looked a little haggard and had two dark circles under his eyes, Gu Fei felt very sorry.
Silently, she made a cup of hot tea and put it on his table.
Not long after, Su Chen finished his breakfast and got up, "I will go to Ning'an Marquis's Mansion now. Miss Gu, don't worry, wait for my news."
Gu Fei nodded and watched Su Chen get on the carriage.
Half an hour later, Su Chen arrived at the side door of Ning'an Marquis's Mansion.
Su Chen waited in the carriage, and the servant went down to hand over the card, and the doorman went in to pass it on.
After waiting for almost a cup of tea, the doorman came out and bowed to Su Chen in the carriage, "Mr. Su, the maid in the second gate just passed on the message that my second son went out early in the morning and is not in the mansion now."
Su Chen's face was slightly cold, and he didn't talk to the doorman. He ordered Yueying, who was driving the carriage, "Let's go--"
Liuguang followed the carriage and couldn't help muttering, "Mr., I think Mr. Xu doesn't want to see you. What's going out is an excuse."
Su Chen sneered, "What a **-minded thing, go back to the inn, I want to see today, he really dares to rob people openly."
Not long after, the car returned to the inn, and Su Chen got off the car. Seeing that his face was not good, Gu Fei couldn't ask the words on his lips.
Su Chen's expression softened slightly to Gu Fei: "Mr. Xu is not in the mansion."
"Miss Gu, don't worry. I will stay in this inn today. I will tell him when he comes."
Gu Fei nodded, "Then Mr. Su should go and rest first. If he really comes, I will send someone to call you."
She asked Lian'er to take the key and open a room upstairs for Su Chen to rest.
Su Chen had been traveling all night and was very sleepy, so he went upstairs.
Gu Fei sat at the counter for a while, and then saw the head of the yamen runners coming with a dozen yamen runners.
