Mrs. Gu is a squeamish

Before dawn, Gu Yanjing set off from Gu's house.

Qiao Yuxian didn't go to see him off, she just stood in front of the window and watched him leave the yard.

Looking outside the courtyard wall in the distance, the headlights of several cars slowly walked away until they disappeared.

Gu's courtyard was clearly filled with lanterns.

But after the lights in the distance disappeared, she felt that it was dark outside.

She looked at the direction he left and stood in front of the window for a long time. It wasn't until she felt very tired that she returned to the bedroom, lay on the bed, and fell asleep.

In the morning, Astragalus came again to draw blood and feel the pulse.

Gu Yanjing was not here, so Aunt Mei brought him in.

Maybe it was because Qiao Yuxian wasn't used to Gu Yanjing's absence.

As soon as the astragalus came, she woke up.

When Huang Qi left, she didn't fall asleep either. Just get up, wash up, and go downstairs to have breakfast.

Mr. Gu pays attention to Qiao Yuxian every day.

Qiao Yuxian went downstairs to have breakfast today.

As soon as he finished eating, he arrived at the east courtyard.

He didn't stay long, chatted for a few minutes, and then left.

After Mr. Gu left, Qiao Yuxian returned to the room.

She felt tired and sleepy. But I was in a daze on the bed, as if I had slept and yet I seemed not to have slept.

After more than two hours of this, she got up again, leaned against the bed, and scrolled through her phone.

A lot of news every day is reported from various places.

Qiao Yuxian watched the messages one by one.

Suddenly I saw a message about Qiao Shuning. It was sent by the person monitoring Qiao Shuning.

Same as yesterday.

They were all saying that Qiao Shuning wanted to come to Gu Zhai, but they stopped her from going back.

Qiao Shuning made a big circle yesterday.

The person watching her followed her around for four or five hours, not knowing where she wanted to go. Finally, she thought she had gotten rid of the person watching her, so she headed in the direction of Gu Zhai.

But he was quickly blocked back.

She came out again last night.

This morning, before dawn, I wandered around again.

The intentions are all towards Gu Zhai.

Qiao Yuxian looked at the message, thought about it, and replied: "Let her come over." ]
After replying the message, she leaned on the bed and squinted for a while.

When it was time to have lunch, she went downstairs and found Lu Muyao sitting in the living room.

Hearing the footsteps, Lu Muyao looked up, and when he saw it was her, he stood up immediately.

Qiao Yuxian came down from upstairs and walked to the sofa. She didn't hear Lu Muyao speak and just kept looking at her. Qiao Yuxian also looked at him for a while, and then asked cautiously: "Is there something wrong with your vocal cords?"

Lu Muyao: "."

Qiao Yuxian smiled and said, "Sister Lu asked you to stay?"

"Yes." Lu Muyao responded, "No. Young Master Gu told me to stay in Kyoto."

Qiao Yuxian's expression paused for a moment, and he soon understood.

Gu Yanjing asked him to stay in Kyoto to protect her.

"I'm fine." Qiao Yuxian said, "No one will do anything to me. Sister Lu is not in Kyoto. You should pay more attention to the Lu family. At this time, someone may have different intentions and cause something secretly."

"I know." Lu Muyao said, "I know it in my heart. I won't let them cause trouble at this juncture."

Qiao Yuxian nodded: "Sit down."

"No." Lu Muyao said, "I'll just come over and take a look. If nothing happens, I'll go back first."

"Don't you want to have lunch?" Qiao Yuxian asked.

"No"

Before he finished speaking, the housekeeper came in from outside and said, "Madam, the people in the front yard came over and said that Qiao Shuning wants to see you."

Lu Muyao frowned and his expression suddenly turned cold: "What is she here for?" "Bring her here." Qiao Yuxian said to the housekeeper.

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment and did not move.

Qiao Yuxian said: "It's okay, I know what's going on."

"Okay." The butler left.

"Let's meet, maybe we won't see each other again." Qiao Yuxian's voice sounded casual.

But Lu Muyao's heart suddenly tightened, and his face turned uglier.

Qiao Yuxian didn't sleep well for a long time in the morning, and now he looked tired. She sat on the sofa, pressed her temples and said, "Let's have lunch before leaving. Let me tell you about the Nine Emperors Palace."

"Nine Emperors Palace?" Lu Muyao asked.

"Yeah." Qiao Yuxian said, "Didn't Yuheng take you to see it? What do you think?"

"Very good." Lu Muyao said.

"What do you mean "very good"? Qiao Yuxian pressed her temples again and again.

Lu Muyao looked at her and said, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Shall I call Huang Qi?"

"No." Qiao Yuxian said, "Gu Yanjing is not here, so I didn't sleep well."

Lu Muyao's nervous expression froze, and a few seconds later, a burst of speechlessness whizzed past his face.

Looking at his expression, Qiao Yuxian smiled: "To be honest."

"I know." Lu Muyao said in a stiff tone, with a bit of gritted teeth, "I know you two have a good relationship, so there's no need to say it out loud."

"It's not particularly intentional." Qiao Yuxian said, "It's just normal intention."

Lu Muyao didn't want to talk anymore.

Qiao Yuxian laughed twice and said, "Go to the Nine Emperors Palace and see Tianji?"

Lu Muyao raised his eyes and glanced at her fiercely, and then said: "Yes."

Qiao Yuxian nodded and said nothing.

Lu Muyao waited for her next words. After waiting for a while, he found that she had no intention of saying anything else: "What next?"

"What then?" Qiao Yuxian asked.

"What happens after meeting Tianji?" Lu Muyao asked.

"It's okay." Qiao Yuxian said, "I suddenly remembered her, so I asked."

Lu Muyao's confused look became fierce again.

Qiao Yuxian pretended that nothing happened and looked down at her phone, unable to hold back her laughter.

Lu Muyao became even more angry. He understood clearly that she just wanted to tease him.

"That." Qiao Yuxian finished laughing and spoke again.

Before he finished speaking, Lu Muyao hurriedly said: "Stop, stop talking. It's not suitable for us to communicate. That's it, it's fine. No one is disturbing anyone."

"Well but"

"I won't listen." Lu Muyao said firmly.

"But..." Qiao Yuxian looked like she really wanted to say something, and what she wanted to say was very important.

"I won't listen." Lu Muyao interrupted her again.

"That's okay." Qiao Yuxian sighed, leaned on the sofa and stopped talking.

The living room fell silent.

Only the occasional footsteps of the servants were left.

After two minutes of silence, Lu Muyao's ears were filled with the sound of Qiao Yuxian's very regretful sigh just now.

He endured and endured, and endured and endured, as if his heart was scratched by something, but finally he couldn't hold back and asked: "What did you want to say just now?"

Qiao Yuxian lowered his eyes and looked at the messages on his phone without speaking.

Lu Muyao looked at her, paused for two seconds, and then asked, "I thought about it and thought it would be better to listen."

Qiao Yuxian looked at the phone, and then laughed again, from silent laughter to loud laughter, her shoulders were shaking with laughter, and she was completely speechless.

When Lu Muyao saw her smiling like this, he knew he was being "played" by her again. She had nothing to say to him at all. She did it on purpose!

He was fooled again! ! ! (End of chapter)
