"Gu Xiao? Are you talking about that wast... young lord of the Gu Family?" Chu Ying stopped mid-sentence, almost forgetting that the inscrutable person in front of him was a friend of Gu Xiao.
"Yes, it's him," Zhang Menglong didn't mind, "tomorrow is the day he's marrying the Third Princess, but you should know he has practically no status in his family. If he goes to pick up his bride like this, he's likely to be ridiculed by the whole nation.
"Sir, forgive me for being nosy, but your relationship with Young Lord Gu Xiao..."
In Chu Ying's mind, how could Gu Xiao possibly have friends? Even the lowest servants in his family looked down on him; he was merely a lowly servant with the title of young lord.
Although Gu Xiao's father loved him dearly, as the Guardian, he rarely had the chance to return home and couldn't take care of everything for him. Moreover, Gu Xiao was very timid; when bullied, he would never tell his father, which only made those people more rampant.
