Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 705 - 707 Good Opportunity

After waiting for a few days, Zhuge Mingshan finally found a chance to go to Zhuge Zhi’s house, but upon arrival, she discovered there was absolutely no way to see Zhuge Zhi.

Looking at Cai Xingjuan, who was blocking her, Zhuge Mingshan really had no fondness. If it weren’t for these people whispering this and that into Third Grandfather’s ears, how could he be estranged from them?

As long as Third Grandfather wasn’t heartbroken with them, they still had a chance to make amends.

Cai Xingjuan, uninterested in Zhuge Mingshan’s distressed expression, figured that these bothersome folks would leave if they didn’t know what was going on.

Zhuge Mingshan talked for a long time but still couldn’t get Cai Xingjuan to relent, and she got angry, "I’m here to discuss something important with my Third Grandfather."

"If it’s not something important, would you come?" Cai Xingjuan didn’t want to drag it on with Zhuge Mingshan either; she too was a very busy person.

Since Zhuge Mingshan was unwilling to say more, then there was no need to speak. Perhaps after hearing it, her own master would suffer a big loss.

"Then you should leave." Cai Xingjuan started to send her away, "No matter how big the matter, you can tell me."

Blood boiling, Zhuge Mingshan felt hatred. She had never been treated like this before, but now she was feeling it. Someday all this would surely be returned.

Cai Xingjuan didn’t care about Zhuge Mingshan’s displeased expression, just kept looking at her like that.

Zhuge Mingshan was secretly hateful, wanting to leave, feeling so bullied, turning around wishing to threaten back, but she dared not, what if things went too far?

Could Zhuge Mingshan leave? "I’ll go find Ni Zi and them. I haven’t seen them for a while."

Find Ni Zi? Cai Xingjuan looked surprised. Were their relations ever that good? Calling Ni Zi straight by name?

Cai Xingjuan certainly wouldn’t let Zhuge Mingshan truly know about Gong Ruini, because this girl didn’t have good intentions, best not let her see anything and then stir up trouble.

Cai Xingjuan wanted to block Zhuge Mingshan, but she’s aged, how could she outrun a young girl?

Zhuge Mingshan wasn’t stupid. Since this visit yielded no meaningful result, she couldn’t leave with nothing. Better to look around, maybe there would be a huge surprise, who knows.

With this thought in mind, Zhuge Mingshan wandered around Zhuge Zhi’s house. Since she had no clear objective, Cai Xingjuan naturally didn’t notice her immediately.

Cai Xingjuan felt really helpless. The house was big with few residents. If Zhuge Mingshan was determined to stay here, finding her would be hard.

Impossible, Gong Ruini knew Zhuge Mingshan couldn’t just give up. But she also couldn’t hide for long, at least she had no food.

Zhuge Mingshan never intended to hide here. She just wanted to find Zhuge Zhi, talk with him, and hopefully have him rescue her.

As for the others, Zhuge Mingshan didn’t care; she had no way to manage them, managing herself was enough.

Gong Tao was surprised to find a strange girl moving around. Initially thought it was Gong Ruini or Gong Jiaxin, but then realized that was impossible since in a few days they’d be going to the Northeast, and the kids were buying gifts for their friends there.

So who was this girl? Gong Tao was amazed. Typically, nobody would wander around the house unless they were acquaintances.

Gong Tao couldn’t figure out who she was. Even if a guest, it’s impolite to roam such places freely.

"Who are you?" Gong Tao gave chase and asked. Whoever it was, he needed to ask. If it was indeed Zhuge Zhi’s guest, he should accompany them.

Even though valuable things should’ve been put away, it was dangerous to let someone roam freely like that.

Zhuge Mingshan didn’t expect to walk all this way without encountering anyone, she was dumbfounded.

She wondered if she could find anything valuable. If she could, then no need to live under Zhuge Zhi’s glare. She wasn’t stupid, no matter what little secrets she had, keeping geese wouldn’t really threaten anyone.

Moreover, it might offend family. While she looked down on them, at least they’d give her a meal. As long as she had money or valuable antiques, once she got her ID card, she could find a chance to leave this suffocating home.

Unexpectedly, she didn’t find anything valuable, but got discovered, making Zhuge Mingshan anxious, accelerating her departure.

Accelerating her departure, it was obvious she wasn’t an upright person. Gong Tao put down his task and sped up his chase.

Zhuge Mingshan was so anxious, she almost swore. Clearly, the house shouldn’t have anyone, why were there people unexpectedly? What was going on? She was truly confused.

Gong Tao, being a man, caught Zhuge Mingshan in no time, as she was just a child.

"You?" Gong Tao was stunned seeing Zhuge Mingshan. Although he hadn’t seen this girl much, she hadn’t changed much since before, so he recognized her easily.

Knowing it was Zhuge Mingshan, Gong Tao’s expression turned sour, "How did you come here?"

The relations between the two families were quite strained, under normal circumstances, Zhuge Mingshan wouldn’t be invited over.

"What do you mean?" Zhuge Mingshan felt irritated seeing Gong Tao, an uncultured bumpkin, actually being here, outrageous.

Clearly, this was the Zhuge family’s house, yet the Zhuge family couldn’t live here. Only this obvious outsider could stay.

"This is my Third Grandfather’s home." Zhuge Mingshan said haughtily. "Can’t I stroll around my Third Grandfather’s house?"

"Do you really consider yourself the master of this place?"

Wasn’t this girl from a wealthy family? How could she have no manners at all, "Then did you get the master’s permission to wander around here?"

Gong Tao wouldn’t let Zhuge Mingshan off easily, "I’m not the master, and neither are you. Besides, Uncle Zhuge and your relations..."

There’s no need for unnecessary words, just mentioned it and stop.

Zhuge Mingshan bit her lip tightly.

"How can you run around without permission?" Cai Xingjuan hurried over hearing the commotion, relieved seeing Zhuge Mingshan caught by Gong Tao.

Although the old man’s room was important, not many people came to the house. Additionally, everyone understood the rules and wouldn’t randomly visit his study. But today, Zhuge Mingshan wandering the estate like this really worried them about what she might discover.

Cai Xingjuan knew the old master’s brothers’ households were quite chaotic. Although things were stable for now, that was due to selling previous belongings to barely maintain.

Cai Xingjuan wondered how much they still had left, but even if there were some, it wouldn’t be much. What if they got ideas about this place?

Luckily Gong Tao discovered her, otherwise she’d cry to death not knowing how to explain things.

With Gong Tao, Zhuge Mingshan could be willful, but towards Cai Xingjuan, she didn’t dare, eventually having no choice but to obediently follow Cai Xingjuan out.

Before leaving, Zhuge Mingshan gave a fierce glare at Gong Tao, wanting him to remember her.

Unfortunately, Gong Tao had already turned away to handle matters. He was a busy man, and soon this girl would be kicked out. Why bother arguing with a kid over such things?
