"I know!" Liu Changqing interrupted Gu Man, "But don't you understand that you can't force emotional matters?"
Gu Man was stunned for a moment, yes, didn't she just force a relationship that didn't belong to her, and that's why she ended up like that? That's why Gu Man stopped Ting Li from asking the emperor to grant a marriage, just because she
I don’t want to see Ting Li and Gu Liao fail to have a happy marriage.
Liu Changqing saw where Gu Man was standing in a daze after being asked by him, and knew that he had aroused her sadness. He felt guilty and said hurriedly: "I'm sorry... I didn't mean it like that!"
He didn't mean to hurt anyone, but when he saw Gu Man so sincerely trying to bring him and Tingli together, he felt so panicked that he blurted out such hurtful words. He felt so guilty that he felt that all the books he had written over the years were
Reading in vain!
Everyone in the capital knew about her affair with the Marquis Cheng Mo. Before he met Gu Qinghe, he also scorned such a woman who would do anything to destroy her reputation. Later, after getting along with Gu Qinghe,
, he found that Gu Qinghe had a cheerful personality, was very considerate and meticulous in his dealings with others, and was a good and honest official. Therefore, he was willing to be friends with him. And the prime minister was also a good official who dedicated himself to the people.
, the prime minister’s wife is also gentle and generous.
How could such a family raise such a daughter?
Later, when "Jidilou" met, despite the bright sunshine and the shabby determination, Qiu Zining not only showed no sign of disgust, but instead gave him kind words and encouraged him to study hard. Sure enough, as she said, Qiu Zining
Live up to expectations and come out on top.
When Liu Changqing saw that smile during the parade, Liu Changqing's view of Gu Liao completely changed!
Gu Man came back to her senses and smiled faintly, "You are right. Just because I know it, I won't force you, and neither will Ting Li. But I hope you can give Ting Li a chance.
Start being friends with her first. If you still feel inappropriate after getting along, I promise that Tingli will never get entangled with you!"
Liu Changqing's face darkened a bit, but he still refused: "No!"
Gu Man pursed her lips and suddenly thought of something. She looked at Liu Changqing and said, "Don't forget, you promised me that no matter what I ask you to do, you can't refuse! You said you were willing to admit defeat!
"
Liu Changqing was stunned for a moment, and actually forgot about this incident. But, could his promise be used on others so easily?
Liu Changqing frowned slightly, "Okay, but you also said you can never force me!"
"Don't worry, it won't happen!"
Gu Man felt relieved when he received Liu Changqing's personal response.
No matter what the outcome is, at least let Tingli give it a try. Tingli is not a pushy person. If the other person really doesn't like her, she won't rush to warm up to someone else's cold butt.
This is also the reason why Ting Li finally agreed to divorce Liu Changqing in the book. If it weren't for the sake of face, he would have taken the initiative to cancel the engagement when he first learned that Liu Changqing was unwilling. Unfortunately, the emperor issued a decree to grant the marriage at that time.
The news has long been spread throughout the capital, and it hurts the royal family's reputation, so they can only make one mistake and continue to make mistakes.
In order to travel conveniently and not attract attention, Gu Man and Tingli never bring maids with them when they go out. The same goes for Gu Qing and Liu Changqing.
Therefore, Gu Man and Liu Changqing had to support each other and send the two people home.
The waiter had already found two carriages and parked them at the door of the restaurant.
The royal palace and the Prime Minister's Office were not on their way.
It was already past dinner time, and there were only a few guests outside the restaurant. The rest of the people in the box were expected to drink until the evening. The noise and banter came from the inside of the box in a chaotic manner. People passing by the box where Qiu Zining was sitting
When they reached the door, Gu Man quickened his pace.
After half dragging and half dragging Tingli to the carriage, Gu Man looked at Liu Changqing and said with a smile: "Brother Changqing, remember our agreement, we will make another date!"
Liu Changqing smiled slightly bitterly and nodded. Then he didn't know what he saw, his eyes changed, and then he bowed his hands to Gu Man's side, "Greetings, Lord Marquis!"
Mr. Hou?
Gu Man frowned slightly and looked in the direction where Liu Changqing was paying his respects. She saw Cheng Mo wearing a moon-white gown, riding on a tall horse with his head held high, looking down at Liu Changqing with a solemn expression.
Cheng Mo ignored Liu Changqing and didn't let him get up. Instead, he turned to look at Gu Man coldly.
"Madam, you are so elegant! She goes out to drink with other men in broad daylight?!"
Cheng Mo's voice was neither high nor low, just reaching Liu Changqing's ears.
Gu Man looked at him with doubtful eyes, is this girl sick?
What nonsense are you talking about on the street? What do you mean by drinking with other men? It's like she's hanging out with other men alone?
Can't you see these two people in the carriage?
Liu Changqing also felt angry and his face turned red. It was the first time that someone had indiscriminately accused him of being an adulterer! He was a man and endured it, but he was still a woman! He knew that Cheng Mo didn't like Gu, but he didn't expect it.
You actually lost face like this in front of everyone!
Liu Changqing suppressed his anger and looked at Cheng Mo, "Master Hou, I didn't just go out together alone. On the carriage..."
"go home with me!"
Cheng Mo interrupted Liu Changqing's words and didn't take him seriously at all. He just stared at Gu Man coldly.
Gu Man frowned, seeing the humiliated expression on Liu Changqing's face, and her heart was full of anger. She was the one who asked Liu Changqing out today, but she let him suffer Cheng Mo's humiliation for no reason. She said angrily: "I don't! I want to go back.
You go back by yourself! Tingli is still in the car, I have to send her back first!"
After saying that, he turned back to look at Liu Changqing and said warmly: "Brother Changqing, don't pay attention to him. Just send my brother back properly. If I have a chance in the future, I will personally apologize to you!"
After saying that, Gu Man got into the carriage.
Suddenly, Gu Man felt her waist tighten and she exclaimed! In an instant, Gu Man felt like she was bumped into a hard embrace.
Pedestrians around him stopped to watch. Gu Man, who was sitting sideways on the horse in shock, saw the looks from passers-by and hurriedly shouted in a low voice: "What are you doing?! There are so many people watching!"
Cheng Mo sneered, "What are you afraid of? You are my wife! You are not afraid of being seen when you are with other men. Why do you feel embarrassed when you ride on the same horse with your husband?"
Gu Man couldn't help but cursed: "Cheng Mo, are you sick?!"
"What did you say?!" Cheng Mo's cold, knife-like voice came from above his head.
Gu Man could feel the cold air emanating from Cheng Mo's body without turning around.
When Liu Changqing saw this, he was very dissatisfied, "Master Hou, I have already said that I made peace..."
"It's you who called me?! She is my wife! Please be more respectful! Liu Tanhua!" Cheng Mo said in a deep voice.
"..." Liu Changqing was speechless for a moment.
Cheng Mo snorted coldly, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and ran forward. Hearing the roar of the horse, the pedestrians on the road hurriedly avoided. Gu Man ignored his fear and just said: "Tingli is still in the car."
Up there! Let me down!"
Cheng Mo said: "Tingli has his own bodyguards and Liu Changqing to see him off! You go home!"
On the "Zuichun Tower", Qiu Zining followed the window and had a panoramic view of the scene downstairs.
A young master from a certain servant's family said jokingly: "I have long heard that the Marquis and his wife are at odds with each other. I didn't expect that it was true! There was a quarrel in the street? They say that family scandals should not be made public. This is too disrespectful of the Marquis."
It’s a shame for my wife!”
Qiu Zining's hands clenched tightly unconsciously. Seeing the two people riding horses in the distance getting further and further away, a surge of anger arose!
These days, it's not like he hasn't heard about the affairs of the Hou Mansion, but he didn't expect that his benefactor's situation would be so difficult!
