C62 (1/2)

Gu Yun came home late today, and had a lot of things to do these past few days. He couldn't come back to eat with her often, but in truth, there was no time where he didn't want to come back quickly and eat with others.

The moment he entered, he saw Xie Jingxi reading on the bed, she went to wash her hands, then took down the book from her hands without saying a word, and directly carried her onto the bed.

”Does it still hurt?”

Although Xie Jingxi knew that he would usually stay in the outer room for a while, and take the cold air off her body before coming in, it was as if he could not hold her hands warm at all. It was as if she had brought the whole winter home with him.

”Have you eaten? If you don't eat properly, I'll ask Ming Yu to make you a bowl of noodles. ”

Gu Yun obviously didn't want to eat it, he just hugged it, ”It's okay, I'm not hungry, let me hug you for a while.”

Xie Jingxi held his hand, but was instead held back by him, ”Have you always had a stomach ache?”

”Yeah, it has always been, but I've been treating it for the past few years. It's much better now, so you don't have to worry.”

Gu Yun rested his chin on her shoulder, and unconsciously held her hand on her lower abdomen, ”I'll ask the old man to show you later.”

Xie Jingxi giggled, ”It's no big deal, it's fine as long as you recuperate for a while, but you don't have to be greedy, I might be a little shy around words normally, I will take note of it in the future, but your second brother gave me a prescription today, I don't know if I can use it, so I'll show it to grandfather later.”

”He has a lot of connections outside, even his family also has a few Medicine Hall. He must have asked them in detail, so it shouldn't be wrong.”

Gu Yun played with her fingers while listening to his casual tone. Suddenly, Xie Jingxi remembered the last time she met his in Aunt Zhao, when she helped her along the way, and estimated that at that time, Gu Yun would already know what was going on. It was just that he had never mentioned it, and her worries never hung on her face, which made Xie Jingxi a little nervous.

It wasn't because she was afraid of anything, but because she was afraid that he would think too much into it. There were some things that were unclear, so it was more accurate to say, ”Did your second brother ever look for you?”

”Hmm?” Gu Yun was startled, ”You said last time? ”You guessed it.”

Xie Jingxi nodded her head. The last time Zhao Zhang rushed here so quickly, he must have followed Gu Heng all the way here, since he wasn't the one who specially sent people to follow him out of boredom. He must have been looking for Gu Yun first, and had even said something that he shouldn't have said.

”Actually, it's nothing. If you don't like it, then I'll find someone else to settle the score with in the future.”

When her words reached the tip of her tongue, Xie Jingxi felt a little regretful that she had mentioned this matter, because she realized that there was no way to explain her thoughts at all. She could not say what really happened, and it was just a sentence of nonsense.

But it made Gu Yun laugh, ”So that's why you kept this matter to yourself, when we, Xi, attract others to like us, it is my fortune, and if it is mine, I will keep it.” Most likely, it was not his, he had to snatch it, furthermore, Gu Heng was not the only one who was thinking about his family's Xi.

Xie Jingxi thought that it would be better to avoid Gu Yun and his preconditions from now on.

”Have you been in trouble recently?”

”It's not bad, but today is the first month for Lord Feng of Ministry of Justice, Lu Kun insisted on bringing me to join in the fun, so it wasn't easy to refuse, so I went to ask for a favor.”

Gu Yun did not like to socialize with others, and there was nothing he could do about it. Looking at his spirit and vitality today, Xie Jingxi knew that it definitely would not be just that, but since he did not tell her, she did not ask. He only followed his instructions and asked: ”Master Feng? However, the previous son of the Zou Clan's young mistress mentioned it to me. Since she mentioned it, my mother told me that it was a joyous occasion and that we should send something over. I then considered giving his a gift in the name of Marquis Mansion.
