Strange, why did she feel like the temperature suddenly dropped a few degrees?
Ye Qinglan looked towards the door, her smile still hanging in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. The relaxed smile that radiated from the inside out was completely different from the usual polite smile, instantly lighting up her already beautiful face.
Gu Xinian looked at her smile, but felt strangely depressed. It must be because of seeing Shen Changan, it must be!
Gu Xinian walked into the main hall and even his usual smile disappeared: "Shen Chang'an, what are you doing here?"
Shen Changan smiled cheekily and said, "I came to visit you yesterday, but you weren't here. So I came again today."
The corners of Gu Xinian's lips curved into a mocking arc, and his words were very cold and sharp: "Oh? When did the two of us start to have this friendship? Why didn't I know?"
If one were to rank the sharpness of a person's language, Gu Xinian, who had thrown away his mask of gentleness, would definitely be at the highest level. His verbal aggression also had at least three plus signs.
Ye Qinglan glanced at the sullen-looking Shen Chang'an with sympathy. With his little talk, it was strange that he could win against Gu Xinian. No wonder he couldn't marry Gu Xiyu in his previous life!
Unexpectedly, her glance fell into Gu Xinian's eyes, and suddenly there were many subtle meanings.
Gu Xinian didn't know where the anger in his heart came from. In short, he was in a very bad mood now. He wanted to get rid of the outside world before settling down inside. He wanted to get rid of the eyesore Shen Changan, and it would not be too late to torture Ye Qinglan again.
"Mr. Shen, if you have nothing to do, please help yourself." Gu Xinian said expressionlessly: "I have something to do and I don't have time to chat with you."
The words were overwhelming. Shen Changan wanted to pretend that he couldn't hear it, so he had to smile and said: "That's fine, then I'll wait for you to visit again when you are free."
When are you free? Gu Xinian twitched the corners of his lips, a sarcastic smile flashed in his eyes. He is not free any day!
Seeing that Gu Xinian had no intention of giving him a ride, Shen Changan had no choice but to say goodbye and leave. Before leaving, he suddenly remembered that he had not thanked Ye Qinglan yet, so he smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Miss Ten, for talking to me." Future brother-in-law, hurry up and see how polite I am!
Strange, why did the future brother-in-law’s eyes become even colder? Shen Changan left with a lot of confusion.
Gu Xinian was left staring at Ye Qinglan coldly.
Ye Qinglan was too lazy to think about Gu Xinian's thoughts. She turned around and left without even looking at him.
"Stop!" The displeasure in Gu Xinian's voice was obvious: "I have something to ask you." What was she doing in such a hurry? Was she feeling guilty?
Ye Qinglan turned around and responded calmly: "I wonder if cousin Gu has anything to ask me again? I haven't done anything wrong this time, right!" The sarcasm in his words was clearly visible.
Gu Xinian was choked, and the suppressed anger suddenly emerged: "Why is Shen Changan here? Where has my mother gone? Why are you here talking to him?" No matter what, it's not your turn. A cousin comes out to greet the guests!
Ye Qinglan raised his eyebrows and asked with a half-smile: "Didn't he make it very clear just now? He came to visit you specially. Because you were not here, he waited here all afternoon. My aunt accompanied him and told him After a while, I left temporarily because of 'something'."
As for her talking to Shen Changan...does it have anything to do with him?
Gu Xinian's eyes narrowed slightly: "He's sitting in his seat, why are you joining in the fun?" Before Ye Qinglan could defend himself, he said to himself: "I have advised you a long time ago that Shen Changan is not a good person. Stay away from him. point!"
What kind of tone is this?
Ye Qinglan was also a little annoyed, and her smile disappeared from the corner of her eyes: "What does cousin Gu mean by saying this?"
"Cousin Lan is so smart. She naturally understands what I mean." Gu Xinian didn't even have the slightest hint of a smile in his eyes: "If you want to find a good marriage, Cui Yu is a good choice. He is much better than this vulgar warrior."
…
Ye Qinglan's anger burst out, her eyes were extremely bright, and her fair cheeks were stained with an angry blush: "Don't go too far! I just said a few words to Shen Chang'an, how come I have ulterior motives in your eyes?" Really? To take a step back, even if I mean this, what does it have to do with you? Why do you meddle in things? "
Gu Xinian's tone was a little harsh: "Just because you live in our house now, of course I am qualified to ask about your affairs. If you do something that violates the etiquette of the boudoir, how will I explain it to my cousin Qingning and my aunt!"
Pooh!
Ye Qinglan could no longer maintain her usual calmness, and her eyes were full of anger: "Gu Xinian! If you hadn't invited me, would you have thought that I wanted to come here? What do you mean by saying this now? Don't use your dirty words Try to guess my thoughts!"
Gu Xinian sneered and responded unceremoniously: "Is it because I have a dirty mind or you have too many thoughts? You know better than me."
The two maids were frightened by the tense argument between the two. They looked at each other and then quietly retreated with oil on their soles.
The cousin has always been gentle and kind, and the eldest young master is even more gentle and polite. How could these two people suddenly have a quarrel? It's simply terrible! Hurry up and bring in the reinforcements!
Ye Qinglan, who was in a rage, didn't pay attention to the movements of the two maids at all, her pretty face was extremely cold: "You said I have too many thoughts, I think you have too many thoughts! Just saying a few words can do the trick. It makes you have so many associations, it’s really admirable.”
Gu Xinian secretly gritted his teeth at the strong sarcasm in her words, and blurted out a series of words without thinking: "If you are not guilty, why are you so angry? It's simply because I hit your mark!"
I can't bear it anymore, no need to bear it anymore!
Ye Qinglan said coldly: "I'm just a guest in your house, and I'm not living under someone else's control. Why do you accuse me and I have to apologize solemnly? Gu Xinian, let me tell you, I'm not rude to you. It's here. I'm going to pack my bags and go home now. Don't stop me, and don't be shameless enough to invite me again in the future. I will never set foot in Duke Dingguo's mansion again."
Gu Xinian was so angry that he responded reflexively: "Don't think that Yu'er can't live without you, just use this to threaten me. I'll have someone prepare a carriage to take you back."
Ye Qinglan replied with a smile on his face: "Thank you very much, Cousin Gu, for your noble hand and letting me go back home."
Mrs. Zheng and Gu Xiyu, who had hurried over, stood dumbfounded at the door, looking at the two people in the main hall who were noisy and ugly.
What, what's going on? Why did the two of them start to quarrel in just this moment?
Gu Xinian's true temper is not as good as he appears, and his close family members naturally know it. But even when Gu Xinian was the most angry, he had never quarreled with anyone with such a livid face. And Ye Qinglan was even more shocking. It's unexpected. She has always been gentle and kind, and she is smart and good at reading people's faces. I have lived in Dingguo Palace for so long, and I have never seen her with a straight face. But look at her now, her eyes are wide open, full of expressions. Anger, it's like he has changed into a different person.
Mrs. Zheng coughed heavily.
The two people who were in a rage looked over together, their eyes were very cold, and they were clearly annoyed that someone had interrupted their quarrel.
…
Mrs. Zheng suddenly felt that she had come at the wrong time. Both of them were angry. How should they break up the fight? She could neither hurt her son's face nor make Sister Lan feel cold... It was really a dilemma!
Gu Xiyu couldn't think about it so much. She reflexively ran to Ye Qinglan's side, held Ye Qinglan's arm tightly, and then looked at Gu Xinian accusingly: "Brother, you bullied cousin Lan again!"
This sentence was like a bucket of cold water poured on Gu Xinian's head. It extinguished the flames of his anger.
Yes, what is he doing?
Not to mention that Ye Qinglan's intentions are still unclear. Even if she has thoughts that she shouldn't have, he has many ways to dispel her thoughts. Such childish quarrels simply intensify conflicts. How could he do such a stupid thing on impulse?
Already?
What's more, he has lived for thirty years in his previous life plus this life. How could he be so graceless and quarrel with a girl?
As soon as his heated mind calmed down, Gu Xinian finally felt a rare regret. But he had never been in the habit of apologizing, and he didn't know how to break the deadlock, so he fell silent.
Ye Qinglan was not in the mood to observe his expression. She only looked at Gu Xiyu lightly: "Cousin Xiyu, I'm going back."
What?
Gu Xiyu was startled and held Ye Qinglan's arm tightly and refused to let go: "No, I won't let you go."
Ye Qinglan forced out a smile: "I promised to come and stay with you for a while, and it has been more than a month. I can't keep disturbing you at home."
Gu Xiyu bit her lip, her eyes filled with aggrieved water.
Ye Qinglan was cruel and did not look at Gu Xiyu's eyes. She said apologetically to Mrs. Zheng: "Aunt, I'm so sorry for causing you trouble again. I'll go back and pack my luggage now. I can get back before dark."
Mrs. Zheng coughed and smoothed things over with a smile: "Even if you want to leave, there is no need to be in such a hurry. At least wait until tonight..."
"No need." Ye Qinglan showed such a stubborn side for the first time: "There is not much luggage, and a few maids can pack it quickly. Please ask my aunt to take the trouble to prepare a carriage for me."
Mrs. Zheng glanced at Ye Qinglan, who had a cold face, sighed secretly, and nodded in agreement.
Since she insisted on leaving, she had no choice but to keep him. She had no choice but to wait until Sister Lan's anger subsided in a few days before going to pick her up.
Gu Xinian stared at Ye Qinglan's cold and stubborn pretty face, and suddenly said: "Are you really going to leave now?" For him, such words were rare tenderness.
There was a hint of sarcasm in Ye Qinglan's smile: "What? Does Cousin Gu want to keep me?"
