Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 254 What to do

Tang Jingchen, who was soaked all over but had a gloomy face, stood silently by the side, staring at a crying girl beside him, motionless.

The girl's hair was disheveled and water was dripping from the ends of her hair, but she had no time to tidy it up. She just covered her face and cried. Her clothes, which were also wet, were wrapped up in a dry cloak by her maid.

Not long after, a graceful middle-aged woman came over, said something unknown, and then hugged the crying girl and left the pond.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and Tang Jingchen was in a panic. He stood there, dazed, his mind in a mess, not knowing what to do.

How did the situation suddenly become like this?

At that time, Gu Huatong somehow fell into the water. Her maid immediately cried and asked him for help in a hurry, "Master Tang! Please save my young lady. My young lady can't swim!"

He had no time to think at that time, he was only concerned with saving people, so he jumped into the water and rescued Gu Huatong.

But what to do now?

In full view of everyone, Gu Huatong was rescued by him in his arms, with her clothes still wet and disheveled!

The more Tang Jingchen thought about it, the more frightened he became, and a bitter taste gradually spread between his lips and teeth.

He could almost foresee the outcome of the two of them.

In a trance, he suddenly seemed to realize something and looked up at the opposite side.

Looking across to the other side of the pond, Tang Jingchen saw a little face he didn't expect to appear here.

He was shocked!

The extremely familiar little face was now pale, and the big eyes that used to be bright and sharp like black grapes were also obscured by panic, which made people suddenly feel infinite pity.

The two of them looked at each other across the pond, and felt a sad mood.

Tang Jingchen wanted to hug Xiao Guoer and tell her that there must be a way to resolve the situation, but the next moment someone walked up to him.

"Mr. Tang, my old lady wants you to talk in the hall."

Tang Jingchen's heart sank again when he heard this. He suddenly remembered that the old lady of the Zhou family and Gu Huatong's grandmother, Princess Anhua, seemed to be an old friend. Today's incident happened again in the Zhou Mansion, and the old lady would certainly not sit idly by.

His eyes flashed as he looked at Xiao Guoer from afar. He paused slightly when he passed by the person beside her, opened his mouth, but said nothing in the end.

After Zhao Yunrong watched Tang Jingchen walk away with the servants without saying a word, he thought of his cold and hostile look just now, and a hint of sarcasm and disdain appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Who is he? A mere merchant, and he dares to compete with him!

Xiao Guoer's heart beat faster involuntarily. She was nervous and at a loss. She didn't know what to do.

She could almost foresee how this would end.

But, how can that be possible? !

Tang Jingchen was engaged to her! How could he marry Gu Huatong?

They had just signed the marriage certificate a few days ago... but the marriage certificate was lost in the chaos of the fire... they had agreed to choose a good day to sign the marriage certificate again, but they didn't have time...

Xiao Guo'er's body swayed, and she swallowed hard, feeling panic and anxious.

What should she do? What should Tang Jingchen do? What should they do to preserve Gu Huatong's reputation without marrying her?

Xiao Guo'er's mind was in a mess, and she didn't notice that Zhao Yunrong beside her didn't show any surprise on his face, but instead looked very confident.

It's a chaotic farce and I don't know how it ended.

Such a mess happened at the Zhou family's wedding, which made it even more lively. However, it was so lively that the Zhou family members did not know whether to laugh or cry. After all, no one wants to be disturbed like this when having a wedding.

Everyone's attention and focus of discussion shifted to Gu Huatong and Tang Jingchen. They were talking about how the two were going to get married after this incident. Fortunately, the two young people were still single, and they looked quite a good match.

Xiao Guoer listened to the discussions that sounded like watching a play, and she didn't know what to do, with worry in her eyes.
