Chapter 122: Fudged
Song Mingzhi had a bit of wit.
Facing Shen Munan, all the previous plans failed, so I just improvised.
When he was at the villa before, he got into trouble with Gu Yunyao. When he was "interrogated" by Mr. Gu, he usually responded with wit.
Shen Munan's face was expressionless, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry.
Song Mingzhi's throat rolled slightly: "Your Majesty, actually I...I opened my heavenly eyes."
He observed Shen Munan, who didn't even move his eyebrows.
Helpless, he had no choice but to continue: "After the sunset that day, I narrowly escaped death and felt something different while in coma.
The feeling is very descriptive, but after I woke up, I couldn’t remember some things. For example, you wanted the Owl Bone Agarwood that night, and I couldn’t remember where you put it.”
"I don't remember some things, it seems like they are lost, but there seems to be something extra."
Song Mingzhi glanced at Shen Munan again, his palms sweating nervously.
"I found out that it was Miss Gu Er who saved me, so I wanted to thank her in person.
That day in the palace, although we met, we had no chance to talk.
This time when we were outside the city, I told her about this feeling. I felt it was incredible myself, and I was afraid that I might be sick, so I just wanted to ask her for help. I had no other intention."
"The second lady said that she had fallen into the water and had that feeling, and she seemed to have had the same dream.
Actually, there is not only the Calabash Baby, but also a Jade Ruyi, and the others... I don't know, the dream is very fragmented and incomplete."
True and false, false and true, the highest state of lying is to mix half the truth with the false and twist them together.
Song Mingzhi raised his throat in one breath and gave it all, unable to think of any other better explanation.
"Continue." Shen Munan finally spoke.
"No, that's all. It's true, Your Majesty," Song Mingzhi stood up, "I swear to God, first of all, what I said is true and I have nothing to hide;
Secondly, I don’t have any feelings towards Miss Gu Er at all."
The corners of Shen Munan's mouth curled up slightly, and there was a hint of joking in his smile: "Rookie."
Song Mingzhi: "??"
…
Gu Yunyao lay uncomfortably on the bed. After much thought, she couldn't figure out how to explain Calabash Baby.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, he quickly closed his eyes again.
After losing her vision, her other senses became particularly clear. She felt... something was sweeping her face.
All kinds of speculations flooded my mind for a while, and I couldn't close my eyelids.
Opening his eyes, he saw a big fluffy tail.
"woke up?"
Gu Yunyao touched her forehead with her hand: "I'm still a little dizzy..."
"Meimei, you came to see me? You are so kind, I am so pitiful."
She held Meimei in her arms, covering her face with her tail.
"Is Aunt Gu here?"
"No, when I went back to report the news, this ugly... little thing insisted on following me."
silence.
Gu Yunyao gritted her teeth: "Your Majesty, thank you for saving me. I dreamed of Calabash Baby. It was just a dream. I also..."
"And Yu Ruyi?"
Cold sweat broke out on Gu Yunyao's forehead.
Shen Munan asked again: "Have you also opened your heavenly eyes?"
Gu Yunyao's brain was at a loss.
In Shen Munan's opinion, her appearance was tantamount to acquiescence.
"No wonder, you are many different from before, not all of them are clumsy.
I have heard about the opening of the celestial eye, but I have never seen it. What can you see?"
Gu Yunyao's head was buzzing.
Why are these problems making her more and more overwhelmed?
"Come in."
Shen Munan gave an order, and a man stood in the outer room, separated by a curtain. Looking at his figure... it was Song Mingzhi.
Gu Yunyao couldn't help but tighten her fingers.
Song Mingzhi said in the outer room: "Second Miss, the prince and I told the truth about the opening of the celestial eye, as well as the incomplete dream about Calabash Baby.
You are already engaged to the prince, so it is indeed inappropriate to meet with me alone. I don’t want to cause any misunderstanding between you and the prince... Please forgive me."
Gu Yunyao's mind raced rapidly, and he quickly guessed what was going on, and he said angrily: "You are really... what did I tell you before?
Although we have the same experience of falling into the water, we are still not sure whether it opened our eyes.
I originally wanted to wait until it was confirmed and tell the prince in person. If you say this, wouldn't I have no surprise for the prince?
There is still a misunderstanding. Who is the prince? How could he misunderstand you and me?"
She was so angry that she turned her head to look inside and stopped talking.
Song Mingzhi secretly said: Wonderful! Ayao is still smart, and she can tell the truth at a glance.
"It was my fault, just now..."
"Well, Mr. Song has not returned home all night, so his family must be worried. I will send someone to take you back to your home."
Song Mingzhi let out a breath and barely passed this level.
He quickly glanced at Gu Yunyao, but he still felt sad. Ayao was in this other world and was going through life and death, but he couldn't be by his side to take care of her and comfort her.
For the sake of long-term planning, I had no choice but to say in a low voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty. The second lady is resting well. I'll take my leave."
Gu Yunyao closed her eyes gently and suppressed the moisture in her eyes.
How can I not feel aggrieved? Since arriving here, there have been ups and downs one after another, and I have had several brushes with death.
This time I finally met Uncle Erde, but I was forced to lie and pretend not to be familiar with him.
Shen Munan sat by the bed for a while and saw that she was looking inside and refused to turn around to speak, so he didn't force it.
After a long time, Gu Yunyao heard that he went out again.
With a flat mouth, Gu Yunyao hugged Meimei: "Meimei, why do you think I am so unlucky? Why do some people insist on killing me? Who did I provoke?"
Meimei narrowed her eyes and pressed her paws on her hands.
"What for? Transfer energy to me?" Gu Yunyao burst into laughter.
"Gu~"
Gu Yunyao's stomach was growling. He hadn't eaten last night, and he was injured again. His body was exhausted. He was nervous and uncomfortable just now, but now he was very hungry.
Just as he was about to sneak out some food from the Chaos Ring, Shen Munan came again.
She quickly rushed in and lay down again.
Shen Munan entered the room, put the things in his hands on the small table, and looked at her.
He stepped forward and poked the back of her round head with his finger.
"Okay, don't be angry. I don't have any misunderstandings. I don't know him in the same way. How can I care about his noob?"
Gu Yunyao rolled her eyes silently and looked back at him, her mouth slightly pursed, feeling aggrieved and pitiful.
Shen Munan swallowed the reproachful words on his lips: "Get up and eat."
"I don't……"
"Gu~"
Gu Yunyao got up obediently.
Shen Munan brought the small couple over and placed them in front of her.
There is a beautiful bowl of noodle soup on the small table. There are a few golden butter flowers floating on the milky white and fragrant soup. The vegetable shreds from Lu Yingbao are like jade. The noodles are of moderate thickness. They are plated in the bowl and all are neat. Watch for obsessive-compulsive disorder. Everything is comfortable.
The aroma and color of several pieces of meat are alluring, and a snow-white poached egg is round and plump.
"It smells so good," Gu Yunyao reached out to pick up the chopsticks, forgetting her injury for a moment, and couldn't help but scream in pain.
Shen Munan frowned: "How stupid."
He picked up the chopsticks, picked some noodles, and brought it to Gu Yunyao's lips: "Eat quickly, my hands are sore."
Hunger overcame everything, Gu Yunyao lowered her head to eat the noodles. The wonderful taste slowly flowed in her mouth, wrapped in warmth, and went straight into her stomach.
She took a few bites before letting out a long sigh: "It's so delicious, Your Majesty, what kind of noodles is this?"
“Chicken noodles.”
