Gu An followed the three riders to a beautiful two-story western-style building. Although it only had two floors, the western-style building covered a large area of ​​five to six hundred square meters, and there was a large garden courtyard right at the entrance.

This is the second luxurious building that Gu An has seen that is not red bricks and white tiles, and the first one is the large villa of Fulson, the speaker of the Sigelan family.

After Gu An followed the three of them to the yard, several servants immediately came to lead the horse. The short rider asked Gu An to dismount, and they led Gu An through a path with flowers and plants planted on both sides and paved with bluestones.

Before they even reached the gate of the foreign-style building, two maids supported a middle-aged woman in luxurious clothes and came out. The woman's face was full of fear and distress.

"Griffin, my child, thank God you are finally back safely. I was really worried about you."

The middle-aged woman stretched out her hand to help the thin rider pat the snowflakes on his head, while letting the two maids beside her help the thin rider, Griffin, take off his coat.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine now, right? But it's thanks to the help of this sharpshooter that I've brought the medicine back. Where is Dr. Kiske? Where is he?"

After taking off his hat and coat, Gu An really saw Griffin's appearance. He looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, with a childish look on his face, but there was a touch of determination between Griffin's eyebrows.

He took out something wrapped in white cloth from the lining pocket of his coat, and hurriedly asked the middle-aged woman, with an expression on his face that was both uneasy and expectant.

Gu An, who was standing aside, also started to deal with the snowflakes on his body. He saw the middle-aged woman looking at Griffin with a very painful expression. Tears were streaming down her already red and swollen eyes. She opened her mouth.

But he couldn't say a word.

"..."

Seeing the middle-aged woman's appearance, Griffin's face instantly turned pale, and the original expectation and anxiety in his eyes disappeared, becoming gloomy.

Griffin, whose eyes were red, was obviously suppressing the emotions in his heart. When the middle-aged woman saw Griffin's appearance, she was obviously very distressed. She stretched out her hands as if she wanted to hug Griffin into her arms.

middle.

But before the middle-aged woman could reach out to touch Griffin, Griffin moved, and he viciously dropped the cloth bag that had been hidden in his arms on the ground.

Then, Griffin looked at the middle-aged woman with his red and tearful eyes and said: "Is this the result that the man wants? Is this the honor he wants?"

"Griffin!" Upon hearing Griffin's words that contained resentment and anger, the middle-aged woman's face changed drastically. She looked around in a panic. Only when she saw that there was no one else around did she dare to whisper:

"What about that man? He is your father. You can't say that about him. Moreover, he is also for our family. You must know your father..."

"Stop talking!" Griffin's voice suddenly rose, and he seemed a little excited, but this must be the first time he talked to his mother like this.

"I'm sorry, mother, I didn't mean to yell at you."

Griffin calmed down a little, but he looked at his mother and asked seriously:

"Mother, tell me, is that man really qualified to be a father? Does he have family affection in his heart? Don't say it's me and my brother, it's you. Does he regard you as his wife?"

"..."

Griffin's words silenced the middle-aged woman. She lowered her head and grabbed the corners of her clothes with both hands. There was no sound of crying, only tears silently dripping down her cheeks.

What's happening here?

Looking at the scene in front of him, Gu An didn't know how to react for a moment. After all, this was someone else's family matter and he was just a passerby.

Griffin seemed to have noticed Gu An's embarrassment, and adjusted his expression. He ordered the two maids who were supporting the middle-aged woman to help the emotionally out-of-control middle-aged woman return to his room first.

Go to the room.

Then Griffin wiped his eyes with his hands and walked up to Gu An with an apologetic look on his childish face. He bowed slightly to Gu An and said:

"I'm sorry, things about our family made you laugh."

"Ah...it's okay."

Gu An waved his hand, looked at Griffin's face, and couldn't help but ask: "Although this is a bit rude, I still want to ask, has something happened to your brother?"

"..."

As if he didn't expect Gu An to ask him such a question directly, Griffin was obviously stunned for a moment. After looking at Gu An for a while, he nodded and said:

"Yes, this is an accident that is both ridiculous and sad. If you really want to hear it, I can tell you. I just hope you will not spread this matter."

Hearing Griffin's words, Gu An nodded and replied seriously: "That's for sure. You can rest assured. Although I am curious about what happened, I am definitely not a person who likes to talk about other people's private affairs."

Griffin looked at Gu An's sincere eyes, nodded to Gu An, and then led Gu An into the gate on the first floor of the foreign-style building and into the lobby.

There are marble pillars at the four corners of this lobby, and the surrounding walls are all made of white stone bricks. Roses carved from gold bloom beautifully among the white stones, and bright red gauze curtains ripple in the wind.

Gu An looked at the lobby, and two words came to his mind: rich.

Floors paved with black marble, ceramic tiles as bright as mirrors, gorgeous crystal diamond chandeliers, pure black fragrant wood tables with glass, leather cushion chairs, and exquisitely carved bookcases, the interior layout fully shows off the financial resources of the owner.

Gu An was like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden and seeing such a style of building in person for the first time.

What you see at first glance is an extremely luxurious hall, with complicated lighting emitting cold light, and the high walls on all sides casting dark shadows on the soft carpet.

Walking through the long, spacious but deserted corridor, the eyes of celebrities in the famous paintings on both sides seem to be able to capture people's hearts.

Although all the furniture and decorations are extremely gorgeous, it goes without saying that those expensive decorations cannot cover up the deserted and inexplicable sense of oppression in this room.

Griffin took Gu An and sat on the leather armchair. Immediately, a servant came over with a teacup and teapot, and then Griffin poured Gu An a cup of black tea.

Gu An thanked him and took the black tea handed over by Griffin, but he didn't like drinking tea, so he couldn't tell whether this cup of black tea was very high-end.

Griffin himself did not pour himself tea. He sat on the chair and looked at the sterling silver teapot and several tea cups. However, before Gu An could say anything, Griffin came back to his senses.
