A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Chapter 89 What kind of man does the girl like?
For another person, if you encounter this matter, you have to deny it.

Worst of all—

Immediately find an excuse to shirk and explain.

But, this Gu Shizi, he didn't have one!

It's such an understatement to admit it.

If it weren't for the certainty that there would be no bond of interest between him and this person, and that she would not have any use value in the eyes of this noble Gu Shizi, Qi Huan would even suspect that his attitude was only because of the two There is a huge difference in status, and people think they know her well, so they don't even bother to hide anything from her.

No matter how calm she was, she still frowned vaguely, and continued to wait for Gu Zhan to give her an explanation and explanation.

The two stood face to face.

There were countless moments when Gu Zhan wanted to tell her the truth.

but--

She really didn't remember anything that happened that night.

How important is a woman's innocence?Although he really wanted to "take advantage of the fire" and take this responsibility...

However, no matter what, she couldn't use her innocent reputation as an excuse to kidnap and force her to submit.

The more you really love and like someone, the more you don't want to expose any clumsiness and embarrassment of yourself in front of her.

Worry comes from love, fear comes from love!
He was almost demanding, forcing himself not to carry any purpose or flaw in his skills in every word and every action in front of Qi Huan.

"Wei Feng, I won't withdraw. I will keep him outside the Marquis Mansion to take care of him. If the eldest lady needs it, you can order him." In the end, he just expressed his further plans and decisions.

This is obviously a very domineering and unreasonable way of doing things.

But it is also possible that this person gave her a good impression from the beginning to the end, Qi Huan unexpectedly did not feel much displeasure at being offended.

On the contrary, Gu Zhan refused to take the initiative to explain the reason, but her thoughts were racing, and she suddenly remembered a sentence he had said, and confirmed again: "You said before that there is a suspicion between you and Qin Xiaohou of Wuchenghou's mansion. , sent someone to monitor the movement of my house, could it be... because of him?"

There was a reason for what happened that day, but Qi Huan didn't believe it at all.

She thought that this Gu Shizi was just talking nonsense in order to perfuse her, so that she would not have to have a psychological burden.

But with his status and status, a mere Changning Hou's Mansion can't compete with him, let alone be seen by him. If it is only aimed at this Qi family, he really has no reason to send his henchmen to follow and monitor.

Mainly also——

Even if he sent someone out to watch secretly, at least so far, Qi Huan has not noticed that he has any malice towards his family.

So after thinking about it——

Maybe you can really only find the reason from your own interpersonal relationship.

"There is a reason for this." Gu Zhan looked into her eyes without avoiding it.

He felt that this was not a lie, so he felt at ease: "I know that you, and even the mansion, have some involvement with Wuchenghou's mansion, both openly and secretly. I did this matter, but Qin Songzhi and I The time is just a personal grievance. For the time being, it has nothing to do with the government affairs of the court, and it has no intention of dragging the family. Therefore, you don't need to bear any burden in your heart. If you need it, you call Wei Feng, and I will come forward to discuss the rest with Qin Song Solve it directly. If there is nothing wrong with each other... that would be even better, you just pretend that you don't know about it. My people will not take the initiative to show up to cause trouble for the eldest lady."

Qi Huan: ...

When she questioned her just now, she still felt that she was standing on the commanding heights of morality and theory, so she was a little bit relaxed.

But this Gu Shizi's remarks can be summed up as——

Qin Song and I have some personal grievances, we are not involved in government affairs, and we will not implicate your family. Although we use the gate of your house to keep an eye on it, it has nothing to do with your family. If something happens, I will immediately drag him outside to fight.Moreover, not only will I not enter your house to bring trouble, but I can even help you if something happens to your house.

Qi Huan didn't even feel that he was making excuses.

because--

As long as he didn't really cross the line and bring trouble into his own house, then the Qi family didn't care whether he let his personal guards walk on the street, or just squatted at the gate of Changning Hou's mansion and waited to beat Qin Song.

not to mention--

Gu Shizi really didn't rely on his status, which showed that Yuan's attitude was quite polite and good.

Qi Huan was at a loss for words for a moment, but he didn't know how to continue.

It's hard to say, as long as Gu Zhan's people don't enter the Qi family, he doesn't even need to explain to her.But now people have a good attitude and come to explain to her. If she wants to be "unhuman" and has to drive Wei Feng away, that is to directly start a war and protect the Qin family in disguise, and with this Gu Shizi Can't make it through.

Of course, Qi Huan didn't get to the bottom of it, what kind of grudges did he have with Qin Song, because the relationship and position were not in place, and she didn't want to mix with other gods to fight.

Between the two, the scene suddenly became awkward.

Qi Huan's eyes flickered, and he was about to look away slightly to cover up.

On the other side, Gu Zhan had been thinking about it for a long time, and finally took a deep breath, and said with a more cautious attitude: "Excuse me for being rude, but I want to ask the girl, what kind of man do you... like?"

Qi Huan is already very old, and he is also an older single in modern times. When asked this kind of question, he is too old to be shy and blush.

It's just that this topic has been diverted all of a sudden.

Qi Huan didn't keep up, he couldn't help but look puzzled, and gave him a questioning look.

With Gu Zhan's hand behind his back, his fingers clenched even harder.

But what Qi Huan saw was still the serious and sincere expression on his gentle face.

He looked into her eyes, and said every word clearly and steadily: "If I say that I adore the girl and want someone to come to propose marriage, I wonder...is it okay?"

Qi Huan: ...

What kind of mood and reaction should the old aunt have known on the street for only a month and the young man who had never met a few times confessed her love?

Qi Huan privately thought that this should be a small theater of blood and thunder, and he had to run away on the spot.

but--

Perhaps it was because the eyes of the young man in front of her were too serious and pure, so that she could not feel the slightest sign that the other party was joking or acting impulsively. This expression and attitude, on the contrary, created great pressure on her heart virtually.

Her expression froze, and she subconsciously began to reflect inexplicably.

Gu Zhan met her eyes, seeing her reaction without changing expression or heartbeat...

Although it is in line with her usual style of being indifferent before the mountain collapses, and even if it is only the first time he expresses his love to a girl without any experience, Gu Zhan also realizes instantly——

She didn't think half of that about him.

It was not without discouragement and frustration in his heart, but he still looked calm, sincere and peaceful, and continued to wait, waiting for her next words and reactions.

As expected, Qi Huan pursed his lips, thought for a while, and then asked apologetically, "But Gu Shizi misunderstood what I did before? That day..."

She naturally remembered what happened in the Butterfly Pavilion that day.

In her opinion, it was just a harmless joke, but she seemed to have overlooked that this was a feudal era when people's thinking was relatively closed and pure.

No matter how young and mature Gu Zhan looks, he is only nineteen years old.

If it weren't for the prodigal son who lingered in the flowers, her words and actions would be very misleading.

Qi Huan felt extremely sorry.

Gu Zhan finally saw her real reaction, and his heart suddenly turned cold.

But his expression remained unchanged, maintaining his gentle and jade-like manner, and directly cut off Qi Huan's words: "It's not because of what happened that day, I said it then, and I didn't mind what happened that day."

Qi Huan was not the type to be emotionally insensitive.

Looking back on the situation that day, she suddenly understood that there was something in Gu Zhan's words that day——

He said he didn't mind, so it wasn't just a polite remark, the reason why he didn't mind was because he had already had some ambiguous thoughts about her at that time, so it wasn't just that he didn't mind, on the contrary, he was happy Used by her.

In this way——

This situation is far more difficult than she thought.

Neither of the two had a tacit understanding about the marriage contract that Qi Huan was bound to now, because they both knew that that paper marriage contract was not a problem, and it would soon be annulled.

Qi Huan was still a little confused.

She lowered her eyes and thought seriously for a moment, then raised her head to meet Gu Zhan's gaze again, and reconfirmed: "So, there is a reason for Gu Shizi to take good care of me many times?"

She has such a straightforward temper, the entourage next to her was about to grab the ground with her head, but Gu Zhan was not surprised at all.

"Hmm." He still didn't evade.

But words are only such a short word.

It's not that he is so clumsy, it's just because he knows very well first of all, the two of them have known each other for a short time after all, and Qi Huan is not the kind of little girl who makes a fuss, she is too rational and sober, just for now As far as this situation is concerned, even if he talks about his admiration, not only will he not please her at all, it may even be the opposite, making her feel rash and unreliable.

As expected, his cautious attitude of cherishing words like gold once again choked Qi Huan severely.

She didn't think Gu Zhan was bad, and the secularism of this era simply couldn't tolerate a woman living alone, so although she tried her best to persuade Yang to give up the idea of ​​finding a new home for her, she knew in her heart that sooner or later she would have to Find a reliable person to marry.

only--

This part of the plan, at least not in the current plan list.

At home, Mrs. Yang is sick, and Qi Yuanchen is too small to take care of herself. The others are ghosts and snakes, and they can beat her to the ground with a big move anytime, anywhere.

In particular, she was very clear about Gu Zhan's private confession to her in this environment where marriages between men and women are especially important about family status -

No amount of sincerity.

Even, there may be endless troubles.

She didn't want to be distracted from such things for the time being, so she didn't need to consider the motives and reasons of the other party's initial heartbeat, so she just pinched the protruding branch decisively: "Gu Shizi must be aware of everything in my family. To tell you the truth, I don't think about marriage for the time being. Besides, you and I seem to know very little about each other. It's true that we don't know each other well. Qi Huan appreciates Gu Shizi's love, but I'm sorry...you and I should be inappropriate."

She was always decisive in her actions, and after she finished speaking, she lowered her head and took out Gu Zhan's jade pendant from her purse and returned it to him.

Between the two of them, since the window paper was pierced, this thing is too sensitive, and it is really not suitable to stay with her.

but--

Gu Zhan refused.

He raised his hand, touched her fingertips with his palm, and pushed the thing back directly.

Qi Huan frowned, carefully observing his every subtle expression, trying to infer this person's true intentions and thoughts.

but--

The gentle and elegant mask on this Gu Shizi's face seemed to be welded to his incomparably handsome face. Whether it was confession or rejection, there was no sign of damage or tear.

Even his eyes were always as calm as water.

Qi Huan couldn't detect any real thoughts in his heart. This kind of situation where she had no control at all made her feel a little confused and flustered.

The feeling of the unknown, too bad.

Gu Zhan's tone was also calm, he said: "Take the jade pendant, and it won't be too late to return it to me before the girl gets married."

In other words-

He didn't intend to just give up and stop.

Qi Huan was not surprised by this.

After all, it is a relationship, even if it is just a short-lived spring heart, from the flowering to the flowering, there is always a process of acceptance and adaptation.

But what he said was restrained, not suspected of being a stalker, but implying that once she got a woman, he would voluntarily withdraw.

Holding the jade pendant in his hand, Qi Huan hesitated for a moment.

Seeing this, Gu Zhan finally did it himself, first took the jade pendant away from her fingertips, then took half a step forward, bowed his head and stuffed it back into her purse.

When he did this, his attitude was unusually domineering, and he didn't give Qi Huan any room to refuse.

Only--

After the work is done, he immediately retreats to the original distance, maintaining the original posture and expression of standing tall, without any entanglement or transgression.

With just such a person, Qi Huan felt that if he really got into trouble, he would no longer be his opponent at all. He is restraining himself now, and it is only because of his good demeanor that he doesn't want to embarrass everyone.

And she herself—

It's not easy to find trouble for nothing, and take the initiative to make a big fuss and make things ugly.

After hesitating again and again, she decided to act decisively, and tried to maintain a polite and polite attitude, and sent him off: "Then... the son has other business, so please go ahead."

Since you are not prepared to hook up with others, it is not appropriate to continue to get involved.

This is the principle!

"Gu has something to say first, since he promised that Lingtang will escort the girl to the tribute courtyard, he still has to do it." Gu Zhan didn't look sideways, and this time his eyes didn't fall on her face, so he just told her slowly Reason: "Since you rejected me clearly today, Miss Qi is sincere, and I, Gu Zhan, am not a person who doesn't know how to measure. It's just that you and I have met once, even if Miss Qi has no intention of meeting me, we will inevitably meet again in the future. It's not like we won't be in touch with each other forever, right?"

Qi Huan: ...

Okay, okay, you have a good attitude, you are well-bred, and everything you say is reasonable, so let's do whatever you want!
　Miss Qi: If there is no comparison, there will be no harm. I really want to have a hearty fight with Lord Qin Xiaohou...

　　Lord Qin Xiaohou: ...
