The sound of horse's hooves came from far away, and he quickly caught up with him.
Gu Xinian looked back. When he saw the figure on the horse clearly, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and there was a cold look between his brows. How could this haunting guy appear here?
As everyone knows, when the visitor saw his figure, he felt even more unhappy. Hadn't he already gone back to Dingguogong's mansion? Why are he here again?
Seeing that Gu Xinian looked unhappy, Ye Qinglan was secretly surprised. She naturally looked around. Then she was stunned. It was Meng Zijun who was here!
…
This is really enough to give her a headache! These two people are not easy to use, and they are inevitably quarreling every time they get together. Today, they came here specifically to see her off, but they got together again. It would be strange if nothing happened!
As expected, as soon as Meng Zijun's horse caught up, Gu Xinian said with a smile: "Didn't Cousin Meng go to work as an errand at the Ministry of Punishments? Why did he suddenly come here? What if he was arrested by the supervisor?
The boss of the company knows that you are running around while on duty, I’m afraid it won’t be good!”
How could Meng Zijun not hear the underlying threat in his words?
Meng Zijun responded with a smile as if nothing had happened: "Don't worry, Cousin Gu, I was ordered by the boss to familiarize myself with the road conditions in the capital as soon as possible. That's why I went around specially. I didn't expect to meet Lan by such a coincidence.
Cousin’s carriage. It seems that Cousin Lan and I are really destined!"
Destined? Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows and said with a faint smile: "Cousin Meng, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. Cousin Lan already has a sweetheart, if you keep pestering Cousin Lan like this, you will only do nothing.
It's just causing trouble to Cousin Lan. If it were me in your place, you should go about your business obediently now, so as not to make Cousin Lan feel uncomfortable."
...It’s really sharp and vicious! In just two sentences, it hit the most vulnerable point in Meng Zijun’s heart.
Meng Zijun couldn't laugh anymore, and unconsciously tightened the reins in his hands. Yes, Ye Qinglan's heart was pretending to be this hateful man in front of her, not him anymore...
Doesn't he know that his current behavior is almost rogue. But he is really unwilling to let him give up Ye Qinglan like this. He is even more unconvinced when he loses to this insidious and cunning man. He is obviously the one who knows the most, is the most familiar, and is the most suitable.
Why should Ye Qinglan's people watch Ye Qinglan being snatched away by another man? Therefore, even if he uses Ye Qinglan's guilt to continue to approach her, he will not let go!
Ye Qinglan couldn't stand listening anymore and gave Gu Xinian an angry look, suggesting that he should restrain himself. Then he greeted Meng Zijun with a smile: "Cousin Meng, what a coincidence, I didn't expect you to come to this street.
Come up." This can be regarded as resolving the situation for Meng Zijun.
Meng Zijun looked at Ye Qinglan, who was smiling coquettishly. His expression suddenly softened: "Yeah, it's really a coincidence." In fact, he had already planned the route and timed it to catch up, and he wanted to use this move to offend Ye Qinglan.
Huanxin, I never thought that anyone would be one step ahead of him!
Ye Qinglan joked: "It's such a coincidence that I meet you, so I'm going to be shameless. Please ask Cousin Meng to take me home."
Meng Zijun laughed loudly: "I dare not ask for my ear even if I wish!"
Meng Zijun was in a good mood, but Gu Xinian's face was not very good-looking. He was riding on the horse with a cold face, looking coldly at Meng Zijun and Ye Qinglan talking happily, not to mention the depression in his heart.
His girlfriend was coveted by someone else, and that person showed his intentions openly, lest the world would not know about it. This situation is enough to make any man upset. What's more, Gu Xinian is also a very possessive man. More
The important thing is that every time he and Meng Zijun face each other, Ye Qinglan not only doesn't turn towards him, but instead turns towards Meng Zijun... If he could swallow this breath, he wouldn't be called Gu Xinian anymore!
If he had followed his temperament, he would have fallen out with Meng Zijun by now. But somehow, he was able to endure this sour and bitter sigh of relief today!
This Meng Zijun had an unusual background, and Ye Qinglan obviously had a special affection for him. If he argued with Meng Zijun in front of her, he would be asking for trouble...
A man is a real man, capable of bending and stretching! Let this boy jump with pride now. When God's will for marriage comes down in a few days, Ye Qinglan's person and heart will be his own. Let's see what kind of face this boy has when he appears again!
Gu Xinian kept comforting himself in his heart, and finally managed to suppress the burning anger in his heart.
It was rare for Gu Xinian to be so quiet and cooperative, but Ye Qinglan was not used to it. She couldn't help but glance at him quietly, and saw that his eyes were deep but his face was calm, and suddenly there was a subtle throbbing in his heart.
With Gu Xinian's temperament, it was simply impossible to endure such a tone. But he endured it today... In the end, he did this because he didn't want to embarrass her. For Gu Xinian, this was probably
She has never been wronged before! But he still did it. Does this mean that he actually cares about their feelings more than she thought?
Ye Qinglan felt sweet in her heart, but she forced herself to look away.
She has chosen to be with Gu Xinian, and she is destined to let down Meng Zijun. If she shows too closeness to Gu Xinian in front of Meng Zijun, it will hurt Meng Zijun's heart even more. Therefore, she has to let
Gu Xinian was aggrieved again...
Along the way, Ye Qinglan and Meng Zijun kept talking and laughing, but intentionally or unintentionally ignored Gu Xinian.
Fortunately, he arrived outside Uncle Changyuan's house very quickly, otherwise, Gu Xinian was really worried that he would become the first man in history to be angered to death!
"I'm already here. Thank you two cousins for sending me back." The carriage stopped, Ye Qinglan got out of the carriage and thanked her politely.
Meng Zijun smiled and said: "Why are you so polite to me? I will definitely come to see you when I have time in the future."
Gu Xinian glanced at him sideways, snorted lightly, but said nothing.
Ye Qinglan glanced at him quickly again and said softly: "Cousin, please tell cousin Xiyu for me that when there is a happy event in the family, I will definitely go to say congratulations."
...This is nothing more than a secret promise to "make it up" to him the next time we meet!
After hearing this, Gu Xinian's unhappiness finally dissipated. He pretended to be casual and hummed, then got on his horse.
Meng Zijun had no reason to stay. After saying goodbye, he got on his horse.
After Ye Qinglan entered the house, the two men rode forward. After walking a few steps, they heard Gu Xinian say leisurely: "I heard that cousin Meng is very good at riding. I wonder if I can give him a lesson today."
?”
Meng Zijun accepted the challenge without hesitation: "Okay, but there are many people here, so it is not suitable for riding horses. Why don't we find a secluded place. I know there is a road not far from here, and there are very few pedestrians on weekdays."
"
Gu Xinian responded calmly, and then said: "How about we increase the bet?"
Meng Zijun was extremely confident in his riding skills and was naturally not afraid of any bets. He even said provocatively: "Okay, the loser should stop pestering her in the future."
Gu Xinian would not suffer this loss, and his words were cold but sharp: "The only person who has been pestering her from the beginning to the end is you. She and I are in love, so why bother with her."
It doesn't matter if Meng Zijun loses, but it will be a big deal if he loses. No fool will agree to such an unfair bet.
Meng Zijun was choked, jealous, hateful and bitter, and counterattacked without thinking: "If she was really unwilling, how could she let me pester her."
...This time Gu Xinian was choked, and his face suddenly sank. He then sneered: "No matter what you say, she only has me in her heart now. Even if you are not convinced, you can't change this fact."
Meng Zijun was so angry that he stopped worrying about the bet and said succinctly: "Let's compete today." Without giving Gu Xinian a wink, it was hard to calm down.
Bad breath.
Coincidentally, Gu Xinian thought the same way: "It's a deal!" If Meng Zijun doesn't let Meng Zijun lose hard today, he won't be called Gu Xinian!
The two men looked at each other murderously, and then had no interest in saying another word. They rode their horses to a road not far away. After agreeing on the distance, they tightened the reins in unison and kicked the horse's belly hard.
The horse bolted out.
The horse Gu Xinian rode was a top-notch horse. Meng Zijun's horse was slightly better, but it was also very strong and powerful. In terms of horsemanship, the two were equally matched. For a while, they were evenly matched. But
As soon as the distance was far away, Gu Xinian's horse showed an advantage and was almost out of line.
Meng Zijun chased after him, kicked the horse violently in the belly, and unexpectedly chased him evenly.
Gu Xinian did not dare to show any signs of neglect and rode the horse with all his strength.
Just when the two men were fighting fiercely, a sudden change occurred. Meng Zijun was eager to win and kicked the horse's belly too hard. When the horse was in pain, it neighed and raised its hoofs high.
Meng Zijun was caught off guard and was almost thrown off the horse. He subconsciously pulled the horse's mane. Unexpectedly, this move aroused the horse's wild nature, and it actually started spinning on the spot.
Gu Xinian was startled, and without thinking, he tightened the reins to stop the horse, and then stretched out his hand to give Meng Zijun a hand. Meng Zijun used this force to jump off the horse neatly, and finally turned the corner.
Even so, Meng Zijun was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. If he really fell off the horse, it would be no joke. If he broke his leg, arm or something, the gain would not be worth the loss...
"Are you okay!" Gu Xinian's voice sounded.
Meng Zijun was saved by him, but he felt awkward and useless at the same time. He said angrily: "Don't worry, I'm very lucky, nothing will happen, I'm going to let you down."
Gu Xinian was not a doormat. Hearing this, he sneered and said, "Don't you know what's good? If I hadn't reached out and pulled you, it would be strange that you didn't break your leg today." (To be continued. If you like this,
