"Gu Yuanyuan. As a person, you must keep your word. Even if we don't sign a contract, we still have to have basic trustworthiness."
"Going back on one's word is not something a proud girl from the Zhenguo Palace would do. What do you think?"
Gu Qingyuan was shocked. The tip of her nose seemed to be burned when she was teased, and her face was also burning.
It seems that this person has been here a long time ago and heard the conversation between her and Ruan.
The Pei family and the Gu family are separated by a square. How did this person come here after bathing and changing clothes in a short period of time?
"I won't go back on my promise." Gu Qingyuan denied it and turned her back, only to hear her own heartbeat suddenly speeding up.
Embarrassment, trouble.
She was the first to bring up the matter of changing the groom, but now she seems to be the one riding the tiger, and things are getting weirder and weirder.
Pei Jinting was sitting on the side of the bed railing, lazily spreading his long legs, staring at the girl's profile, his eyes locked on her thin shoulders.
He looked at it for a while and said slowly,
"There is no turning back when you open your bow. Don't wait until I am ready, but you shrink back. Maybe I have a way to keep you from shrinking..."
His deep black eyes stared at Gu Qingyuan, his tone was calm,
"Why don't we just cook the cooked rice today?"
This libertine!
When Gu Qingyuan heard this, she turned around suddenly, blushed, and met his eyes. She was so shameless that she couldn't even avoid his dangerous and revealing eyes.
She was panicked for a moment, but when she realized what she was doing, she said with a tigerish face, "Pei Jinting, if you keep talking nonsense, I'm really going to break the contract."
Pei Jinting stared at her, his eyes becoming more and more knowledgeable, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, his eyes narrowed, and he said solemnly,
"It's late at night, so I won't disturb the gentle and respectful Miss Gu any more."
He placed the porcelain bottle he had been playing with on the low cabinet in front of the bed.
Gu Qingyuan recognized the porcelain vase from Gongzhong Tai Hospital at a glance.
She pursed her lips and looked at the man's chiseled profile, saying softly, "Thank you."
The corners of Pei Jinting's lips curled up, and he caught a glimpse of the girl's faint eyes from the corner of his eye. He raised his eyebrows.
"Gu Yuanyuan, do you think I lied when I said I came to deliver medicine?"
"You look down on me too much."
Gu Qingyuan shook her head and quickly said, "No, I, I am..."
Speechless.
Her mood was so ups and downs that it was impossible to put it into words.
"This is the structural diagram of my yard. Take a look at it and circle it if you don't like it. I'll have someone change it as soon as possible."
After putting away the medicine bottles, he put down a scroll and walked out.
After walking a few steps, he stopped again and looked back at Gu Qingyuan.
Gu Qingyuan looked at the scroll and felt an overwhelming feeling in her heart.
He knew how important this was to her.
And take full responsibility.
It was as if there was a trickle of warm water pouring into my heart, washing away the grievance I had just suffered from Ruan and the embarrassment of being discovered by him.
The warmth is rising, and an indescribable feeling of debt and guilt slowly overflows...
"Pei... um..." The man in front of the screen strode back, his warm hands roughly pinched Gu Qingyuan's chin, and raised her face.
He leaned over and bit her lips hard.
Gu Qingyuan was caught off guard by the bite, and everything she wanted to say was swallowed back.
She shook her head to avoid him, covered her lips, and said angrily,
"Pei Jinting, you..."
To hell with all the debt and guilt!
Pei Jinting curled his lips and smiled lightly,
"Gu Yuanyuan, I am just exercising my husband's rights in advance."
After Pei Jinting left, Gu Qingyuan lay on the couch. She thought she would be unable to sleep, but she didn't expect that she fell into a deep sleep not long after.
In the dream, the lazy and dissolute man put away his wanton smile, and his dark and narrow eyes were full of tenderness, which made her indulge.
The next day, when Gu Qingyuan woke up, the maid came to report that Lu Wenze was here.
After Gu Qingyuan said "hmm", she took her time to wash up, and then went to the front to see Lu Wenze.
Lu Wenze has been waiting for a long time, but fortunately he is not waiting for nothing. Gu Yunniang is with him.
"Ayuan, are your feet feeling better? I brought some ointment from Taiyuan Hospital..."
Lawrence Lu stood up out of habit and handed her a porcelain bottle.
Gu Qingyuan did not accept the familiar porcelain vase, but said absently, "Thank you, Lord Marquis."
Lu Wenze knew that she was still blaming him, even the title had changed,
"Ayuan, you don't need to carry a gun or a stick when talking to me."
Gu Qingyuan smiled,
"Master Marquis, we are about to get married. It is not always good to come to Gu's house frequently at this time."
Lu Wenze's body stiffened, and his brows widened as he thought about his wedding and the rest of his life where he could eliminate the misunderstandings caused by the earthquake.
Gu Yunniang's eyes were red and she was biting her lower lip, "Sister, it's all my fault. It was my fault last night. My mother went to the Marquis Mansion to report the news early in the morning, so the Marquis came in a hurry..."
Facing Gu Yunniang who was about to cry, and Lu Wenze who was coughing lightly at the side.
Gu Qingyuan raised her eyebrows,
"Well. You are self-aware and know that you are wrong. After all, he is just your future brother-in-law, not your husband..."
