Marquis Gu was furious that the veins on his resolute and handsome face were throbbing. Just when he was going to have the girl arrested to be punished, a guard of the Marquis Estate came on horseback, saying, "Reporting to Lord Marquis, something happened to the young master!"

At this moment, Marquis Gu couldn't be bothered to find trouble for Gu Jiao. He quickly let the guard lead the way and went to the place where his son had an accident without stopping.

Gu Yan's carriage had overturned on the way. Although the dark guard managed to stabilize the carriage in time and didn't let it flip sideways completely, it still tilted badly and Gu Yan fell out.

Gu Yan's body was weaker than a child's. People in the estate never dared to touch him in fear of knocking him down. Marquis Gu was half nervous all the way, but when he saw Gu Yan, he found that Gu Yan was completely fine.

Gu Yan was sitting on a small stool, stretching his pair of long legs and basking in the sun.

"Little brother!" Gu Jinyu got out of the carriage holding up her skirt, walked up to Gu Yan and crouched down. She held his hand and asked, "Are you all right?"

Marquis Gu stepped forward feeling strange, and gave his son a steady look, "Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"

Gu Yan responded faintly, "I won't die."

Marquis Gu learned from the letter that his son’s condition was much better nowadays. He had some doubts before, but seeing him in person now, he found it was indeed true.

If it was in the past, it was impossible for him to still be fine after his carriage had overturned.

Marquis Gu put down his hanging heart for now and had his son sit in his carriage.

The relationship between father and son wasn’t so good. After getting in the carriage, neither of them spoke. Only Gu Jinyu spoke a few words from time to time to break the awkward atmosphere inside the carriage.

Marquis Gu's forehead was covered with a big bump from being smashed by the silver ingot, and Gu Yan was looking straight at this big bump right now.

Gu Jinyu thought that his younger brother was worried about their father, so she explained, "Little brother, you don't know who we met just now. It’s the little medicine girl who took your jade thumb ring... Dad gave her silver, but she didn't want it. Instead, look, she smashed it back on Dad."

"She smashed it back?" Gu Yan’s phoenix eyes opened wide.

"En." Gu Jinyu nodded.

Gu Yan suddenly felt cheerful.

He didn’t even try to conceal his expression of schadenfreude.

Marquis Gu was enraged that he wanted to beat someone up. If this one wasn't his own son, he would have put him to death long ago!

He was already angered half to death by some wild girl outside, and when he came back, he was once again angered half to death by his own son. He was perplexed, why was that? Had they discussed this over beforehand or something?

The carriage quickly arrived at the Hot Spring Villa.

Everyone in the countryside estate knew that the Marquis was coming. Their faces instantly beamed with delight, as if they were about to celebrate the New Year once again.

They couldn’t be blamed for being so excited. It was because the Marquis worked in the capital and rarely came to the Hot Spring Villa. Only the Marchioness lived here with the young master all year round. As for the young miss, she ran at both ends, staying at the villa for a period of time, and then living in the capital for a period of time.

A table of sumptuous dishes was prepared by the kitchen staff to welcome Marquis Gu, and the four members of the family rarely got together for a meal.

After the meal, Gu Jinyu took his younger brother back to his room, leaving only Marquis Gu in the room of the Marchioness, Yao shi.

When the children were present, they were as affectionate as ever, but as soon as the two children left their sight, Yao shi's smile faded a bit, saying, "It's getting late, Lord Marquis should take a rest now. I'll send someone to prepare your room."

Marquis Gu took her hand and whispered softly, "Are you still angry with me?"

Yao shi cast her face sideways, "How dare I be angry with Lord Marquis? Asking Lord Marquis to not joke around."

Marquis Gu looked at her indulgently and said with shame, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have taken so long to see you, but I really couldn’t leave the capital. You also know the situation in the capital, the princes are all grown up now, and His Majesty is in his prime... "

Yao shi interrupted him, "Lord Marquis shouldn’t talk about court matters with this humble wife, because I know nothing about it. But for Lord Marquis to suddenly come to the villa this time, is there anything?"

Marquis Gu wanted to say something but felt hesitant.

Of course there was something.

However, he wasn’t sure if he should tell her about it this early.

Marquis Gu remained calm and collected as he said, "I found a famous physician in the capital and brought him here to treat Yan'er."

Yao shi said, "Yan'er's condition is much better now. "

Marquis Gu replied, "I know, Jinyu has already told me that the physician of the Rejuvenation Hall is very skilled in medicine, and Yan'er's health has greatly improved with his treatment. But they still aren’t sure that they can cure Yan'er, are they? There is always more hope if we let more physicians check his condition."

Yao shi agreed with Marquis Gu on this point.

Marquis Gu hugged his wife from behind and whispered in her ear, "I'll come back later, leave the door open for me."

Yao shi let out a sound of assent with her eyes lowered, then she drew open the curtain and went into the inner room.

Marquis Gu looked at his wife's estranged back and sighed helplessly.

Marquis Gu went to the study and summoned Physician Zhuge, who had been waiting for a long time, then they went to Gu Yan's room together.

Gu Yan was already asleep. Marquis Gu didn't wake him up, and had everyone else in the room withdraw, leaving only Physician Zhuge and himself.

The reason why Marquis Gu was so cautious was mainly because Physician Zhuge's identity was somewhat special. They couldn’t let anyone find out that he had left the capital, let alone the fact that he had some contacts with the Marquis Ding'an Estate.

Marquis Gu looked at Physician Zhuge coldly and said, "Your disciple treated this Marquis’ son, and afterwards said some outrageous things to this Marquis. You must understand that this Marquis is not stupid! Don’t even try to fool this Marquis!"

"This humble one doesn’t dare." Physician Zhuge said, with a manner unmoved by honour or disgrace.

Marquis Gu cast him a deep look before making way so he could come to the bedside. Physician Zhuge then took a drop of blood from Gu Yan's fingertip with a silver needle.

After that, they went to Gu Jinyu's room.

Marquis Gu said, "Jinyu, the physician wants to take a drop of blood from your finger."

"Oh, supplement for my little brother’s medicine again?" As early as a few months ago, a physician came to the villa to take a drop of blood from her finger, saying that it could be used as a supplement for her little brother’s medicine.

"That’s right, it’s for supplement purposes again." Marquis Gu answered with a straight face.

Gu Jinyu was afraid of pain, but she put up with it for her younger brother. She closed her eyes and held out her hand, "Take it, physician!"

Physician Zhuge took a drop of blood from her finger.

Gu Jinyu was in tears with pain, and Marquis Gu pampered her daughter for a while before heading back to the study to wait for news.

About a quarter of an hour later, Physician Zhuge came over with a complicated look.

"How is it?" Marquis Gu asked nervously.

Physician Zhuge looked Marquis Gu in the eye and said, "Your esteemed son and precious daughter’s blood really don’t mix together. They are not real siblings."

Even though Marquis Gu already prepared himself mentally, when he really heard these words from Physician Zhuge's mouth, he still felt like being struck by lightning, splitting his whole person in two and rendering him stupefied in place.

Needless to say, Gu Yan must be his own. That boy was simply like him everywhere, even his bad temper was the same as his. The only difference was his pair of eyes that he inherited from his mother.

On the contrary, Gu Jinyu didn’t resemble either him or Yao shi since childhood, and the more she grew up, the less she looked like them!

It wasn’t that Marquis Gu didn’t have questions about this. If the two children were born one after the other, Marquis Gu would definitely be suspicious. But they were twins. How could it be possible that one was biological while the other was a fake?

The possibility of a mixed-up had never crossed his mind at all.
