621 The Lord’s Temperamen (2/2)

To her surprise, she had spent such a long time in the house talking with The Lord alone. It was unbelievable to her for the fact that they had spent such an enthusiastic time together.

If Gu Canmo had requested to see The Lord, there must be something that he wished to report, maybe it was about the mysterious person. She was contemplating if she should tag along and listen to it.

In the midst of her hesitation, The Lord said, ”You may now go back. Remember to fix my bed drape as well.”

She suddenly thought of the incident and was momentarily speechless.

The Lord did not sleep. Instead, he held her up all night and talked to her for the whole time.Was it because he could not sleep without the bed curtain?

She answered him briefly and was ready to leave when The Lord suddenly said, ”Also, do not forget the ten rounds of punishment.” He hesitated a little. Gu Xijiu looked at him hopefully, as The Lord had been so good-tempered for the entire time. He would probably dismiss her punishment as a reward for her to have solved the case.

However, he continued, ”Not one round less.”

As expected, it was impossible for The Lord to be so good-tempered.

She answered drily and turned to open the door.

While she was out of the door, she came across Messenger Jiangshan face to face. Seeing her coming out of The Lord’s room early in the morning had caused him to be intensely curious, but he had to suppress his eager concerns and greet her calmly.

Messenger Jiangshan could not help watching Gu Xijiu from behind as she left.

She walked gracefully. There was nothing odd with her legs. He could not help to wonder if they had done anything with each other.

”What do you think about her?”

”Great, she’s beautiful, fit and capable,” answered Messenger Jiangshan, thoughtlessly. He suddenly realized his situation and took a look at The Lord who was standing next to him. A cold shiver ran down his spine. He quickly bowed and saluted, ”My Lord!”

”Do you like her?” asked The Lord, casually.
