Chapter 110: He has evil intentions and wants to monopolize her
Xu Yanqing saw the eye-catching jade chess piece at a glance. He picked up a black chess piece and placed it in his palm, confirming that it was made of ink jade. Looking at the white piece, it was clear and moist, without any impurities.
The quality of this jade chess set is rare in the world, and it can be made into a whole chess piece. How rich must such a family be?
"Brother Zhou's other family members are not in the capital?" Xu Yanqing was curious about Zhou Mu's family background.
Zhou Mu replied quietly: "They are in the capital."
"So, does it count as a family separation when Brother Zhou moves out? As far as I know, Brother Zhou hasn't gotten married yet?" Xu Yanqing really couldn't figure out what kind of family would allow the eldest son to come out and live alone.
Zhou Mu mentioned younger brothers and sisters before, so he is the eldest son?
Zhou Mu didn't like discussing his family issues, so he changed the subject: "Will you play a game with me?"
Xu Yanqing suddenly became interested: "It's disrespectful!"
He thought his chess skills were pretty good, but when he saw this jade chess piece he was ready to move.
Xu Yanqing guessed that Zhou Mu was very good at chess, but after the official game, he was secretly frightened.
Zhou Mu's chess skills are more than amazing? This man's chess style looks very familiar, as if he has known him before.
He soon remembered that Gu Xiyan's chess style was very similar to Zhou Mu's.
Coupled with the fact that Gu Xiyan's own body fragrance can also be smelled by Zhou Mu, it is easy for him to think of other things.
What is the connection between Gu Xiyan and Zhou Mu? They still live next door. When it comes to being close to each other, Zhou Mu is the best person to get close to Gu Xiyan.
He wanted to ask what the relationship between Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan was, but he was afraid that Zhou Mu would be disgusted. After all, he wanted to use Zhou Mu to get close to Gu Xiyan, and he didn't want to alert the enemy.
Xu Yanqing lost two games in a row, so he readily admitted defeat: "Brother Zhou is very good at chess. I am convinced that I lost."
Zhou Mu felt that Xu Yanqing's chess skills were indeed average and far inferior to Gu Xiyan's, but he did not say this.
After leaving the tea room, Xu Yanqing looked at the Zhou family's mansion and found that although the house was much smaller than the Marquis's mansion, everything looked noble and elegant, and a lot of thought was put into the building.
Apart from the three people he knew, there were no other servants in this huge mansion.
"Since Brother Zhou is from the capital, why have we never seen Brother Zhou show his face before?" Xu Yanqing expressed the doubt in his mind.
Zhou Mu's eyes were fixed on the branches leaning over the wall next door, and he replied absently: "I don't like to deal with people."
Xu Yanqing followed Zhou Mu's gaze and saw, wasn't that Wanqinghou Mansion?
The girl he loved lived there, but he had no chance to even get close to her.
There is also this mysterious Mr. Zhou, whose identity is a mystery, his origins are a mystery, and his relationship with Gu Xiyan is also a mystery.
"Brother Zhou, do you have any contact with Wanqinghou Mansion?" Xu Yanqing still couldn't hold back and made insinuations.
Zhou Mu withdrew his gaze from the house next door and looked at Xu Yanqing quietly.
Xu Yanqing was secretly frightened, wondering if Zhou Mu had seen through his true thoughts?
He was panicking, but the expression on his face was still calm.
"Occasionally." Zhou Mu curled his lips indifferently: "It's getting late, Master Xu, please come back."
Xu Yanqing couldn't stand it this time, so he said goodbye: "I'll treat Brother Zhou to a drink next time!"
Zhou Mu looked calm as he watched Xu Yanqing walk away.
It wasn't until Xu Yanqing left the Zhou Mansion that Zhou Mu asked Qi Zhiyuan: "Why do you think Xu Yanqing is approaching me?"
"Didn't Mr. Xu say that he wanted to deal with Miss Xu?" Qi Zhiyuan was a little confused.
Could there be other reasons?
"Could it be because of Miss Gu?" Zhou Mu seemed to be saying to himself.
Qi Zhiyuan said in astonishment: "No way? Even if he is close to the young master, Mr. Xu will not be able to get close to Miss Gu."
The young master himself has to come up with many excuses if he wants to see Miss Gu.
"I hope I'm overthinking it." Zhou Mu looked towards the next door again.
He knew Gu Xiyan was there, but there was a wall between him. He obviously wanted to see her, but he still had to endure it.
Qi Zhiyuan and Zhou Mu frequently looked at the next door, and realized that their master was thinking about Miss Gu again.
"If the young master likes Miss Gu very much, why not marry Miss Gu home as soon as possible?" After Qi Zhiyuan made this suggestion, he immediately stayed away from Zhou Mu.
Zhou Mu glanced over at him, Qi Zhiyuan looked away and mustered up his courage: "Young Master obviously likes Miss Gu, otherwise why would he always find reasons to see Miss Gu? Young Master likes to be quiet and never interacts with others, let alone...
Women? The young man can't resist Miss Gu, what does this mean if he doesn't like her?"
For the first time, Zhou Mu felt that Qi Zhiyuan was eloquent and not stupid, and could actually see through his mind.
Little did he know that not only Qi Zhiyuan could see it, but also Aunt Yin, Cai Yu and Min'er.
He thought he had concealed it well, but in fact, several people serving around him saw through his love for Gu Xiyan.
Qi Zhiyuan quietly observed his master's expression and felt relieved when he saw that he was not angry.
"Young Master has concerns, and my subordinates know it, but there is another important matter that Young Master may not have thought about." Qi Zhiyuan said again.
Zhou Mu looked at Qi Zhiyuan: "What's the big deal?"
"The young master likes Miss Gu, but Miss Gu may not necessarily like the young master." Qi Zhiyuan decisively stated this important matter.
When Zhou Mu heard this, his eyebrows furrowed into the character "Chuan". He really didn't expect this.
"Young master, don't worry too much. He treats Miss Gu so well, and Miss Gu treats him so well. She must also like him." Qi Zhiyuan duly stuffed Zhou Mu with a sweet date.
Zhou Mu listened.
Gu Xiyan was respectful every time she saw him, and she didn't seem to admire him at all.
It is not that no women have thrown themselves into his arms over the years. He knows that liking someone is not as calm and self-possessed as Gu Xiyan.
There is no doubt that Gu Xiyan has no thoughts about him. She doesn't even know what excessive things he did on the Mid-Autumn Festival.
She trusted him wholeheartedly.
He arranged a blind date for her, and she went obediently, meeting several young talents.
If he told her later that he had evil intentions towards her and wanted to monopolize her, would she dislike him?
Thinking of that possibility, Zhou Mu felt that for the first time in his life he lacked confidence.
Qi Zhiyuan saw the change in Zhou Mu's expression from the side and said hurriedly: "With such a character, such an identity, and such a peerless appearance, no woman would not be tempted by the young master. It's just that Miss Gu hasn't figured it out yet. After some time, she will
Miss Gu understands the young master’s intentions and will definitely like him the same way he likes girls.”
Zhou Mu couldn't sit still: "Go and ask Miss Gu to come over."
He wanted to observe carefully to see if Gu Xiyan would be a little shy when she saw him.
If you like someone, you should feel nervous, uneasy, and shy, right?
"Okay!" Qi Zhiyuan immediately went to do this.
After he sent the message to the next door, he came back and saw Zhou Mu fussing around in the bedroom. All the clothes in the closet had been dug out, and there were many pieces of clothes placed on the bed.
"Master, what are you doing?" Qi Zhiyuan stepped forward and asked.
