When we went outside, it was starting to get dark.
Bai Yu'an stood at the door, glanced at Gu Haiqing who was sitting blankly by the door, lowered his eyes and walked out.
A Tao followed Bai Yuan and walked out of the alley before speaking softly behind Bai Yuan: "Do you really plan to help Gu Yiyi cheat?"
Bai Yu'an stopped at the entrance of the alley, turned around with his hands behind his hands and looked into the alley. The dilapidated gate not far away was as sparse as withered weeds in the cold winter.
She still remembered the look in Gu Yiyi's eyes, unyielding and unwilling to accept her fate.
She feels empathy and compassion.
If the two of them can talk calmly, as they said when they became close friends, they will live and die.
There may be a good way forward for everyone.
It's just that maybe I didn't understand the meaning back then, so I acted like an adult, as if I could already take charge of my own business.
Bai Yu'an sighed, feeling sad in his heart.
Gu Yiyi's eagerness for quick success and quick gains to get rid of the past forced both of them into a dead end.
Looking up at the deserted and dirty courtyard wall, the people walking around all looked tired, stepping onto puddles of sewage without caring.
Even the cleanest clothes are dirty.
Bai Yu'an stood for a long time and finally turned around.
Standing at the entrance of the alley and looking around again, Bai Yu'an was worried that Shen Jue's people were still here.
But what Bai Yu'an was sure of was that Shen Jue definitely didn't know about her affairs, otherwise he wouldn't have called Chang Song over.
After thinking carefully for a few times, Bai Yu'an lifted up his robe and got into the carriage.
After opening the curtain and looking outside, A Tao's voice rang in her ears again: "Young master, do you really want to let Gu Yiyi live in the newly rented house?"
Bai Yu'an did not look at A Tao, but whispered: "Now Shen Jue is staring at her, and it is not a good thing for me if she stays here and is taken away by Shen Jue's people."
As he spoke, Bai Yu placed the curtain and looked at A Tao: "Shen Shoufu knows that I have something to hide from him. He probably won't let it go just like that."
Bai Yu'an frowned slightly as he said this: "Although I reminded Gu Yiyi just now, if Gu Yiyi really falls into the hands of Shen Shoufu, I cannot guarantee that she can hold on."
A Tao was a little worried: "What should we do?"
Bai Yu'an lowered his head and looked at the ground, hitting his knees with his fingers: "This matter must be dealt with as soon as possible."
"The longer it goes on, the harder it will be to deal with."
A Tao looked at Bai Yu'an's lowered eyebrows, and was extremely silent in the dim carriage. She asked again: "Is the young master planning to help Gu Yiyi cheat?"
"But that's Chunwei's question. How can the young master get it?"
Bai Yu'an glanced at A Tao: "Of course I can't really help Gu Yiyi cheat."
"If I really do this, it will just be another lever in someone else's hands."
A Tao worriedly said: "Then what if Gu Yiyi finds something wrong during the scientific examination later?"
Bai Yu'an looked at A Tao and lowered her eyes slightly: "Gu Yiyi is too eager for quick success and quick success. When she went to take part in the scientific examination, she also put the handle into my hands."
A Tao covered her lips: "So the young master wants Gu Yiyi to take the scientific examination?"
Bai Yu'an nodded and whispered: "I'm just trying to stabilize her first. If she really has a high status, it's impossible for her to be in such a miserable state."
"The squire from my hometown must have sent a lot of things."
"So I suspect that Gu Yiyi's identity is fake. Maybe I can start from here."
A Tao nodded as if understanding, and then said: "Then why are we staying here? Master, why don't you go back and change your clothes first?"
Bai Yu'an lifted a corner of the car curtain and leaned against the carriage to look out: "Wait a minute."
Bai Yu'an was waiting here, firstly to see if Gu Yiyi would listen to her advice and change her residence, and secondly, to keep watch to see if Shen Jue's people were watching here.
Bai Yu'an's carriage was unremarkable. It looked similar to any other carriage on the street. It was parked under a tree on the side of the road. It looked inconspicuous in the dim light.
A Tao saw that Bai Yu'an didn't want to leave yet, so she didn't say anything more and stayed by her side silently.
Seeing the sunset gradually approaching, Bai Yu'an saw Gu Yiyi and Gu Haiqing coming out of the alley.
Bai Yuan's heart relaxed slightly.
After watching for a while, when no one was following them, Bai Yu'an said to A Tao: "Go to Ruyi's place tomorrow and ask her to ask Wang Chunping to watch Gu Yiyi."
"Wang Chunping is delivering goods at the dock, so you pay him double his wages. Don't let others feel that he is suffering a loss."
Although Ah Tao wanted to say where the money was, he thought about it and let it go. He nodded and asked, "Then the house won't be moved?"
Bai Yu'an glanced at A Tao: "It's not too late to move after Gu Yiyi's incident is over."
A Tao was speechless.
The carriage returned to the yard, and Bai Yu'an felt tired and stood in the yard in a daze.
Chang Jing saw Bai Yu'an from afar, and immediately rushed out of the small hall and hugged Bai Yu'an's lap for a hug.
Although Chang Jing was not too fat, he was still a little chubby. Bai Yu'an smiled and bent down to hug him. He almost didn't pick him up and took two steps back to stabilize himself.
Bai Yuanqing, who was following, saw this scene and quickly went to pull Chang Jing and said: "Come down quickly, your cousin is tired, let your cousin rest."
Bai Yu'an looked at Changjing in his arms, his mouth closed and about to cry, so he coaxed: "Uncle Tang is holding him. Has little Changjing listened to his father today?"
Chang Jing put his arms around Bai Yu'an's neck and said, "Chang Jing wrote a lot of words today. I'll show it to Uncle Immortal!"
Chang Jing said that he was about to go down and get the words to show to Bai Yu'an.
Bai Yu'an was a little unable to hold Chang Jing, so he let him go.
Seeing Chang Jing's small body running into the house, Bai Yu'an couldn't help but smile again.
A Tao said from the side: "You might as well go in and talk, standing still is tiring."
Bai Yu'an was indeed tired, so he asked Bai Yuanqing to go into the house together.
After just two steps, Bai Yu'an suddenly felt something strange and looked up.
In the attic separated by a wall, Shen Jue was standing on the fence, his black clothes swaying slightly in the wind, but his eyes were looking towards him.
The moment Bai Yu'an raised his head, the two looked at each other, and they both saw different emotions in each other's eyes.
Shen Jue looked at Bai Yu'an's dirty white clothes, which looked like white lotuses growing out of the mud. Her clear eyes showed a bit of stubbornness, and the way she looked at him was a bit angry.
Of course Shen Jue knew what Bai Yuan was angry about.
He was angry that he had clearly promised not to interfere, but then went to check on him behind his back.
How could you not check it out? Shen Jue was extremely interested in anything about Bai Yu'an.
The thin man in the alley seemed to have an unusual relationship with Bai Yuan. The more Bai Yuan kept it secret, the more Shen Jue wanted to know.
At this moment, Bai Yu'an looked at Shen Jue above.
She couldn't see his face clearly, she could only feel his gaze.
But Bai Yu'an didn't care, and looked away after a few glances.
She had planned to find a way to transfer outside Beijing after Gu Yiyi's matter was settled.
I am indeed tired.
