Chapter 25: Cooking raw rice into cooked rice

Gu Xiyan didn't notice anything strange about Zhou Mu. The century-old apricot tree in the temple was in season for viewing, and she felt a little moved.

"Young master, you are interested. In fact, there is no need to rush about my marriage. As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Gu Xiyan looked in the direction of the old apricot tree.

It was rare for Zhou Mu to see the look of longing in Gu Xiyan's eyes. Seeing that it was still early, he took a step forward and said, "I will accompany the girl for a walk in the temple."

Without waiting for Gu Xiyan to speak, he took the lead and headed towards the old apricot tree.

Gu Xiyan followed Zhou Mu hesitantly.

Today, the temple was not as lively as usual. There was not a single pilgrim along the way. Isn't there usually a lot of incense? It's strange.

Little did she know that because she wanted to see each other, Zhou Mu specifically told the abbot that he would not receive outside pilgrims today.

Zhou Mu walked in front, and Gu Xiyan followed behind him. Looking at his slender and tall figure, she couldn't move her eyes away.

Some people are outstanding in this way. Even though they are wearing the most ordinary clothes, they are full of elegance, and their every move is noble and elegant.

The two of them walked forward in silence, and soon arrived at a century-old apricot tree.

It is autumn, and the apricot leaves are turning yellow. When the wind blows, the apricot leaves flutter and fall from the branches, as if it is raining.

There is a thick layer of apricot leaves on the ground, which makes a slight sound when stepped on.

"Which young master do you want to see next, girl?" Zhou Mu's voice awakened Gu Xiyan's thoughts.

Gu Xiyan pursed her pink lips lightly, thinking that everyone was the same. In her opinion, none of these noble gentlemen would necessarily fall in love with her. Her temper was too unpleasant.

She didn't answer, so Zhou Mu kept staring at her: "What's wrong?"

Gu Xiyan mustered up her courage and said, "Actually, I don't think there's a rush. Take your time..."

"We can't take it slow. If the King of Qin gets married and insists on taking you as his concubine, what will you do?" Zhou Mu's deep eyes like paint were locked on Gu Xiyan's face.

After all, Zhou Xing was also the current King of Qin, and he was a powerful man. If he really wanted to force Gu Xiyan into the Prince of Qin's palace, even he might not be able to keep an eye on her all the time.

The most important thing is that Zhou Xing is a thoughtful person. Even if Gu Xiyan doesn't want to, Zhou Xing can do whatever it takes to cook the rice.

"Then follow the young master's arrangements." Gu Xiyan knew that Zhou Mu's words were reasonable, so she no longer refused.

"Dong Yong is good, girl, don't worry, the next one will be better. There are many good men in the world, and there will always be one who can match the girl." Zhou Mu remembered what Dong Yong said, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.

Gu Xiyan had a vague feeling that Zhou Mu was not in a good mood, and she could get a clue from his tight jawline.

"Master, aren't you happy?" Gu Xiyan didn't take Dong Yong to heart, she only cared about Zhou Mu's mood.

Zhou Mu turned to look at Gu Xiyan, surprised that she could easily catch his emotional changes.

"Young master, there is no need to worry too much about my marriage. I think marriage should take its own course. If you can meet someone who knows your heart, that's lucky. If you can't, you can't force it." Gu Xiyan expressed her thoughts.

.

In fact, she is not that enthusiastic about getting married, and even thinks that being alone is quite good. If she can avoid Zhou Xing in time in this life, she may be able to get rid of the fate of her previous life.

Zhou Mu felt that Gu Xiyan's words were too decadent: "Girl is just unlucky to meet King Qin. Not every man is as turbulent as King Qin. As good as a girl is, she can always meet someone who understands her and truly loves her."

The girl’s lover.”

Gu Xiyan laughed dumbly, feeling that this person seemed to be determined to be the matchmaker.

"According to Young Master's auspicious words, if Xi Yan can find a lover in the future, she will definitely invite Young Master to have a wedding banquet." Gu Xiyan's lips raised slightly and she smiled brightly.

She rarely smiled, but this smile was like a hundred flowers in bloom, so beautiful that all the golden flowers were eclipsed in front of her.

Zhou Mu looked intently at Gu Xiyan's bright smile and thought that there was someone in the world who could smile so brightly and dazzlingly. Then Dong Yong thought he was blind and couldn't see the beauty of Miss Gu.

Chunhua and Qiushi, who were not far away, saw Gu Xiyan and Zhou Mu standing together from a distance, and secretly sighed that these two really were talented men and beautiful women. The scene of them standing under the apricot tree was just like the people in the painting, so beautiful.

A perfect match.

It's a pity that the girl said that Mr. Zhou is unmarried, otherwise he wouldn't be a matchmaker for the girl and is eager to marry her off.

"I heard Chunhua talk about charcoal today. I wonder if the person who spread the rumors has been found?" Gu Xiyan pretended to mention it casually.

Zhou Mu didn't know that Gu Xiyan was deliberately inquiring about the news, "The person who spread the rumors was the nurse in Qi Anbo's house. This person accidentally heard the rumors on the street, and then spread them to Qi Anbo's house, and then spread out from Qi Anbo's house.

Everyone knows that this nursing home has not benefited. Preliminary investigation results show that there are two groups of people involved in this matter. One group of people wanted to use rumors to resell charcoal, but for some reason this news was known in advance, so the real

Those who benefit are not those who deliberately spread rumors."

After he finished speaking, he saw Gu Xiyan looking straight ahead, her tense expression too serious.

Gu Xiyan like this made him feel a little strange.

Gu Xiyan later realized that her expression was inappropriate, and she returned to normal, "So that's it, is this the end of the matter?"

Rumors spread from the nursing home of Qi Anbo Mansion. According to her, this matter had something to do with Xu Yongqian.

Su Ho spread this rumor and knew that someone was secretly investigating the matter. In order to avoid being found out, Su Ho dragged Xu Yongqian into the water.

Relying on Xu Yongqian's deep love for her, Su Ho made Xu Yongqian willing to help her clear the suspicion.

What a good Su Ho, who had clearly lost her identity to Zhou Xing, but could still hold Xu Yongqian firmly in her hands and make him obey her words.

"This matter ends here. But one day, I will find out the real winner!"

Zhou Mu's voice was like a thunder, making Gu Xiyan's emotions tense instantly.

She didn't dig up Zhou Mu's ancestral grave, so why would he hold on to her? She really didn't want to be targeted by Zhou Mu from now on.

Her mouth was dry and she worded her words carefully: "Actually, it's not a big deal. Why don't you, sir, turn a big deal into a trivial matter?"
