Gu Qingyuan did not expect Pei Jinting to appear suddenly.
She saw him walking leisurely, with a smile, and slowly stretched out his slender palm. His voice was slightly raised, and his tone was gentle that she had never heard before.
"I asked you not to come out, but you came out anyway. How about it? Have you agreed?"
Facing the pleasure in Pei Jinting's eyes, Gu Qingyuan smiled helplessly.
Is this man asking for his husband’s rights?
As her eyes moved, Gu Qingyuan's eyelashes trembled slightly, she sighed in her heart, and then held the hand that the man extended.
The palm of her hand was warm, and the man's thinly callused fingertips seemed to be licking her palm.
A burst of itching.
Gu Qingyuan glared at him slightly.
Pei Jinting didn't take it seriously, pulled her behind him, and looked at Lu Wenze with a smile.
This action is full of demonstration, as if a beast is marking its territory.
Lu Wenze stared at the hands held by the two of them, his eyes were red, his jawline was tightened, and his dark pupils were filled with intense emotions.
He didn't believe that Gu Qingyuan did it voluntarily.
Gu Qingyuan, who has always been dignified and self-possessed, has always treated Pei Jinting with a bad face.
But since she doesn't come back to her, she must be trying to please Pei Jinting.
I hope he can give me a title.
Thinking of this, his anger just because Gu Qingyuan refused to go with him dissipated without a trace.
He transferred all his anger to Pei Jinting.
"Pei San, what are you doing?"
Lu Wenze's voice was as cold as a cold blade.
"Master Lu, are you driving so fast that you are making people stupid? Can't you tell?" Pei Jinting chuckled lightly, raised his eyebrows in a carefree manner, and said,
"Of course I will take my bride back to the bridal chamber."
His words of "bridal chamber" spoke of deep affection.
The two people's eyes met, and in an instant, murderous intent was everywhere.
"Pei San, you act like this and take away someone's wife, aren't you afraid of retribution?"
Pei Jinting chuckled, "What is there to be afraid of, young master? Not to mention that I haven't married you yet, even if I am your wife, isn't there still peace and separation?"
"Whether this young master will suffer retribution or not, that is my business, you don't have to worry about it. Speaking of which, I should thank you."
"Thank you for taking care of Gu Yuanyuan these years. I will take good care of her in the future."
The veins in Lu Wenze's neck were stretched out. He stared at Pei Jinting and cursed every word,
"Pei Jinting, if you do evil, you will be killed. You will not end well in the future."
Two men. One is in charge of the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army and the other is in charge of the Infantry Division. They are both well-known figures in Kyoto.
But now, the two of them looked at each other coldly, neither of them willing to give in.
The night wind passed between the two of them, and there seemed to be the sound of sword fights between them.
"Ayuan, he won't give you good results. Come here."
Lu Wenze was so angry that his liver and gallbladder split apart, and he shouted again, "Ayuan, this person has done all kinds of evil in Kyoto, and this is not the first time he has robbed a good woman."
"You will not end well if you follow him."
Gu Qingyuan didn't want to listen to Lu Wenze's words anymore and quietly shook Pei Jinting's hand.
Pei Jinting felt her movements and seemed unhappy. He snorted coldly,
"You go back first and let Shuangzhi wash you up. When you come back, we will have a wedding..."
Under the gaze of the two of them, Gu Qingyuan turned around and walked slowly towards the new house with red lanterns hung on it.
Lu Wenze was stunned, his eyes slightly frightened, staring at Gu Qingyuan's back, the emotions he had forcibly suppressed were on the verge of collapse.
"Ayuan..." He raised his foot to chase after her.
But he saw that Pei Jinting still had a smile that he didn't like on his lips and stood sideways in front of him.
"Master Lu, please wait."
Lu Wenze watched Gu Qingyuan enter the door of the new house with his own eyes. He looked at Pei Jinting with a sneer as if he had no strength.
"Pei San, did you threaten A Yuan? What are you going to do to let A Yuan go?"
The sun had already set, and the darkness was descending layer by layer, making the yard gloomy at the moment.
Pei Jinting stood in front of him and said casually,
"This young master will not be as stupid as you."
"On the eve of the wedding, what is the difference between leaving the city for a woman and running away from the wedding?"
"If you don't do this, I won't have the chance to snatch the bride. Thank you very much, Lord Lu."
Lu Wenze clenched his fists, his joints crackling,
"It's you. It's all your plan to leave the city...isn't it?"
Although the distance between Tongzhou and Kyoto is not far, Gu Yunniang's letter could not reach his hands so quickly due to their mother and daughter's abilities.
Moreover, when he went to Tongzhou, Yun Niang was not as terminally ill as the letter said.
Pei Jinting smiled at this,
"A dignified marquis is in charge of the infantry department, and he is so straight that he is willing to bite the hook. Who can blame him?"
This sentence hit Lu Wenze's pain so much that he was left speechless. That's right. Who can blame him?
After all, it was because I felt sorry for Gu Qingyuan first that Pei Jinting took advantage of her.
He has always been ruthless and arrogant, believing that he can control everything.
Now his wife who has not worshiped has been snatched away.
Not only that, the unmarried wife would rather follow a libertine than go back with him.
One can imagine how much of a blow it had to Lu Wenze's heart.
Lu Wenze's heart ached. He didn't want to lose his rank in front of Pei Jinting, so he sneered coldly and said,
"Although I neglected her, I married her in a proper manner. And what about you? How will she behave after you robbed her?"
"You have a lot of beauties in your backyard, do you want her to help you manage them?"
"Ben is my concubine. You are not running away, you are robbing me. Pei Jinting, Ayuan is just angry with me for a moment, that's why she doesn't leave."
Pei Jinting had been watching the show calmly and with a slight smile. However, Lu Wenze's words made his smile dim for a moment.
He took a step forward and punched Lu Wenze in the face without any warning, causing cold sweat to break out on Lu Wenze's forehead and eyes flashing like gold.
There was no smile in his eyes as he stared at Lu Wenze and said,
"I forgot to tell you. I have already gone to the government office to register my marriage to Yuanyuan."
As if he was afraid that Lu Wenze wouldn't believe it, he waved his hand and slowly took out something from his sleeve pocket, his eyes seemed a bit frivolous.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, to disappoint you. Although I don't have three matchmakers or six betrothals, my marriage is recognized by the government."
It was a marriage certificate issued by the government. With this marriage certificate, no one could say that Gu Qingyuan was not Pei Jinting's wife.
Lu Wenze suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at the seemingly light piece of paper in Pei Jinting's hand in disbelief, but his heart seemed to be weighed down by a thousand pounds.
Pei Jinting folded the marriage certificate slowly, with a sarcastic tone and chuckled,
"Master Lu, I am anxious to be the groom, so I will send you off not far away."
"By the way, someone will send back your betrothal gift tomorrow, oh, and this jade..."
On his slender fingers, he saw a carp pendant, which was given to Gu Qingyuan by the Lu family when they proposed marriage.
I don’t know why it got into Pei Jinting’s hands.
With a "pop" sound, the jade pendant fell on the bluestone, making a crisp sound, falling apart, and sinking into the grass on the roadside.
