Chapter 23 Helpless Compromise
Some people are beautiful, some are smart, and some are rich, but they can't compare to one thing, that is luck. Gui Guan is a beautiful person and a smart person, but what he lacks in his life is luck, so he is always far from happiness, but like a grass pressed by a big stone, he never admits defeat, and has been relentlessly living towards the direction of the sun, hoping that one day he can bathe in the sun.
As long as there is a slight chance, he will not give up.
He is threatening Gu Xiyan.
If he is not let go, when someone comes, he will say that he has an affair with the second girl of the Gu family and will die together.
If Gu Xiyan was really a twelve-year-old girl, she would be scared. She smiled softly, her eyes as cold as the ice edge in the cold winter: "If you have been to help me for a hundred years, you should think of other ways!"
Yes, if you go to call someone for a hundred years, what will you say in front of others? Even a fool knows the answer, let alone a smart person like Gui Guan.
His whole body was stiff and his face turned gray.
Gu Xiyan is not much better than him.
I just felt that Gui Guan was too ruthless and was a little afraid that he would do something to hurt him. Now that he is like this, can he really strangled him to death? This is the first time I have fought with someone... What should I do? After a long time, people are really here. Wouldn't I and Gui Guan want to bite the dog and get the benefits of the hundred years in vain... How do I follow this? Two people who want to help others confront me here...
Gui Guan's forehead was sweating profusely, not only causing pain under his body, but also having an unknown fear drama about the coming.
I can't just make a mistake like this... I have been waiting for many years, expecting for so many years, enduring humiliation, but I wasted all my efforts because of my stupid self-confidence... No, no, no, I can't do this... He turned his mind quickly and blurted out: "I heard from my brothers who used to be a servant in Rongyuezhai that you had received personal guidance when you were a child..."
Gu Xiyan's face suddenly turned pale, and the belt she wrapped around her hand couldn't help but tighten, making Guiguan feel relieved. He couldn't help but raise his head, and he could clearly see Gu Xiyan sitting by the strings of the bed. A sense of hostility rose on her face as quiet as white pear blossoms, and the blue veins raised on her temples were clearly visible.
Damn Mr. Gu, he just guessed at first that he liked boys. Now it seems that he is a pedophile at all. No, he is even more dirty than a pedophile. Even his own daughter... Could this be the most fundamental reason why Gu Chaorong wants to send Gu Xiyan away? If so, then Gu Chaorong should know Mr. Gu... For a moment, Gu Xiyan was confused, and the belt around her hand was tighter.
Gu Xiyan's wrath and the pain in her neck made a white light flash in Guiguan's mind, illuminating his chaotic thinking. He gasped and said hoarsely: "Miss II, I, like you, are also a pitiful person... He bought it into the mansion by him when he was nine years old... No matter how he treats me, I am gentle and easy-going. As long as he is willing to tell me to recognize words and teach me about learning... He promised me that in another year, I will redeem myself for the money I saved, and I may use the money I saved to redeem myself, or take the imperial examination and find a background... Second girl, I really don't want to hurt you... I was confused just now. The girl said that she was kind, but I blamed me for being too scared, and I didn't hear it... Second girl, I know you don't want to come back or enter the palace, we are all the same..."
Gu Xiyan listened to Gui Guan's words and gradually calmed down.
This is a step. Now, only by working with Gui Guan and later can we deal with the enemy Kaidi for a hundred years.
That is the real crisis!
She gradually loosened the belt in her hand.
Gui Guan continued, as if she was afraid that she would go back on her word, "Miss Second, Deacon Ding is not a good person, don't listen to him..."
A cold light flashed in Gu Xiyan's eyes.
"I didn't lie to you." Gui Guan promised urgently, "He was brought by his wife's family, but he helped the master to train us specifically..."
Everyone has secrets that people don’t want to know. As long as it is not a way to prevent survival, Gu Xiyan usually treats her very tolerantly. Gui Guan’s words reminded her of what she said when she met with Xiao Gu Xiyan in Xiangzhanglin, “Derene Ding said he was disobedient and told me to sell them all”, and she had a new evaluation of this person’s character. She moved her heart and asked Gui Guan: “What else do you know?”
Gui Guan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had taken the right path, and tried his best to say in a calm tone: "I heard what the girl and Deacon Ding said in the woods that day, Deacon Ding did not tell the truth to the girl."
Gu Xiyan acted very coldly and said "Oh", but she thought of the waving feet that she saw in the woods that day.
Who was having an affair there?
Gui Guan, Huanling is still a hundred years old...
Gui Guan secretly looked at Gu Xiyan's expression, seeing that she was not very careful listening to this matter, she couldn't help but feel anxious. Time is too precious now. If she didn't take out something that interests her, she would quickly let herself go. By the time a hundred years have passed, no matter what she said, his life would not be better... He said hurriedly: "The fifth son of the emperor has not gotten married, but he has been childhood sweethearts with Fang Shaoying since childhood. The two families have a covenant, and choosing a concubine is just a matter of destiny..."
"Oh!" Gu Xiyan said coldly, "How do you know?"
Gui Guan said anxiously: "Who doesn't know in Shengjing..." Before he could speak, he saw Gu Xiyan looking at him with a smile. He was secretly anxious: He said the wrong thing! If everyone in Shengjing knew, what is the use of his news...
Gu Xiyan also knew that time was tight and now was not the time to talk. She looked at Guan Gui carefully.
What should I do? I really don’t have the murderous heart and courage...
Gui Guan saw Gu Xiyan squinting his eyes and looking at him. A hesitant light flashed in his eyes. He felt a move in his heart. He suddenly took off a silver bracelet from his wrist and handed it to Gu Xiyan: "Miss Second, this is the only relic left by my mother to me. I will put it at this time..."
Of course, Gu Xiyan would not believe his words, but now that is the only one.
She took the bracelet and put the belt around Gui Guan's neck and tied it back to her pants.
Gui Guan gasped while touching her neck, but he peeked at Gu Xiyan. Seeing her wearing a belt in front of him carelessly, he couldn't help but feel cold.
This woman is really practical and can do anything.
Thinking of this in my mind, I felt a sense of sympathy and consciousness in my heart.
I am not such a person, I can do anything to survive...
Gu Xiyan tied up her trouser belt, saw Gui Guan still sitting on the couch, and kicked him gently: "Does it hurt so much there..."
It really hurts, but can Gui Guan say this in front of a girl who is about the same as him?
He blushed and said in a low voice: "No..."
"Then you don't leave!" Gu Xiyan urged him, "No matter what others say, we will pretend that nothing happened today. I'm sleeping. As for your part, you can find a way..."
The moonlight shone on Gu Xiyan's face, and she regained her quiet expression like white pear blossoms. The corners of her mouth, which were lightly raised when she spoke, seemed to be always smiling, giving people a sweet, warm and soft feeling.
Guan Gui shivered.
This woman is so...it's so...it's two-faced...
Gui Guan nodded and ran away as if he was chased by a ghost.
Gu Xiyan sighed and turned to clean up the wardrobe that had been messed up by Bainian.
Why are some people so stupid? They steal things but not gold and silver jewelry, but they steal some clothes...
This is completely a misunderstanding of Gu Xiyan.
Women who have seen in a century usually hide things under their wardrobe. Who would have liked Gu Xiyan, who carelessly put valuable jewelry on the mirror table...
The movements of a hundred years have been slow. After Gu Xiyan packed up her things, no one came. She lay on the bed and didn't dare to sleep. She felt that the inner courtyard was too unsafe, as if anyone could come in... She remembered the woman with a masked woman carrying a sword that day in Rongyuezhai... It was really troublesome. Time travel is like traveling. Why did she travel to such a complex environment? Can't she be a daughter? She used to sigh in the class, "What's the matter with my family? I'm just rich." At that time, I thought it was really hypocritical. Now it seems that everyone has their own worries. Like myself, I'm afraid of losing my life even if I sleep...
She was thinking about it for a long time before there was some movement outside.
Gu Xiyan tiptoed to open the window and peeped, but it turned out that she was the one who came back from the lantern festival! Gu Xiyan covered her quilt and laughed softly.
She and Gui Guan both overestimated their courage for a hundred years. After a long time of work, this guy just ran away!
Only then did Gu Xiyan have the opportunity to look at the bracelet left to her by Gui Guan.
The bracelet is silver, about one wide, with patterns carved in empty space, as if it was engraved with bats, things like Shouzi, etc., and it is not heavy in your hand, it should be made of silver. It is an ordinary silver bracelet.
Gu Xiyan put it on her wrist casually, the size was just the same.
She played with it for a while and then took it off her hand and stuffed it under the pillow. She fell asleep after falling back. She still remembered that she didn't know whether to go to Cui Baoyi to attend class tomorrow? If she performed poorly, would it arouse Duan's suspicion... Also, when she met Gui Guan again, she had to have a good talk. How did he see that she was unwilling to enter the palace?
Now that I am in this deep courtyard, the news is blocked. I am afraid that if Mr. Gu sells it, he will count the money for him...
There was a rustling sound of dress rubbing outside, and the occasional excited conversation between Hengyue and the others was interspersed. Gu Xiyan calmed down and slowly fell asleep.
