Gu Xiyan was the first to react and realized that she was still kissing the man's perfectly shaped jaw. Feeling guilty, she hurriedly pushed open the wooden cabinet door.
She wanted to get out of the wooden cabinet, but she found that her and Zhou Mu's bodies were completely together, and their posture was so ambiguous that it was impossible to look directly at them.
If she is going to die, does this mean that she has completely destroyed Zhou Mu's innocence for two lifetimes?
Not only was Gu Xiyan embarrassed and at a loss, Zhou Mu's situation was not much better either.
He has no experience in dealing with women in his life, let alone such intimacy?
The girl's soft palms were still "touching" him. He recited the Heart-Cleaning Mantra silently again, took a deep breath, calmed down, and tried to make his tone gentler: "Girl, go out first, don't be in a hurry, take your time."
Only then did Gu Xiyan realize that her hands were touching Zhou Mu's chest erratically. She quickly retracted her hands and responded softly. After a little more effort, she carefully got out of the wooden cabinet.
It was obviously autumn, but she was dripping with sweat, and her clothes were stuck to her back with sweat, making her feel uncomfortable.
It's so hot this autumn.
She didn't dare to look back at Zhou Mu and walked out of the cabin quickly.
When she breathed in the fresh air outside, her racing heart was still racing. She pinched her fingers hard and told herself not to have evil thoughts about Zhou Mu.
That man is like snow on a high mountain. He has been single all his life in his previous life and has never married. He is a celibate. No matter how good or charming such a man is, you can only look up to him.
If you have evil thoughts about Zhou Mu, it is blasphemy against this person!!
After she had mentally prepared herself, Zhou Mu also walked out of the wooden house.
Gu Xiyan glanced at Zhou Mu quietly, and saw him standing with his backlight, looking pure and upright. He was clearly standing in the shadow of the eaves, but he seemed to be standing under the scorching sun, bright and warm.
Yes, this man is so noble, he is a flower on the high mountain. How can a woman like her reach such a high level?
"The person just now is His Highness the King of Qin, and I was engaged to him before. Because I didn't want to cause trouble to the young master, I just wronged the young master and hid here in desperation. Please don't blame me." Gu Xiyan took two steps back and handed the responsibility to the young master.
Take it on yourself.
In fact, she knew that it was not appropriate for Zhou Mu to meet Zhou Xing for the time being, so she took the initiative to help him hide.
If it hadn't been for those little accidents that happened later, she wouldn't have been so guilty.
She was afraid that he would think she didn't respect herself and that she was deliberately throwing herself into his arms.
"The girl is Liu Shuzheng's eldest daughter?" Zhou Mu had returned to normal at this time, but he also unconsciously avoided Gu Xiyan's eyes.
He had heard about Zhou Xing's divorce.
Rumors said that Gu Xiyan was cowardly, timid, and gloomy, but the girl he saw today was smart and cautious, and was not as bad as the rumors.
Moreover, the incense on her body is exactly the same as the incense he usually uses...
"I have nothing to do with Mr. Liu for a long time." Gu Xiyan stepped into the sunshine, heard Zhou Mu's footsteps, and looked back.
I saw that his whole body was bathed in the warm sun. Under the half-bright light and shadow, his features were clear and elegant, and his whole body was smeared with a thin halo, as if he had accidentally fallen into the world of mortals.
Zhou Mu slowly approached Gu Xiyan and smelled the familiar sandalwood again: "Girl, are you sure you didn't use incense?"
Gu Xiyan subconsciously wanted to answer no, but she felt it was inappropriate.
This was the second time Zhou Mu asked the same question. Zhou Mu was sure that there was incense on her body, but for a moment she was not sure.
"The incense on the girl is exactly the same as the incense on me!" Zhou Mu raised her thin lips slightly.
The incense he dyed was unique in the world and was a gift from his master. As a marginalized figure in Wanqinghou's mansion, where did Gu Xiyan get this extinct incense?
Gu Xiyan hesitated for a moment, then raised her sleeves and brought them to her nose to smell. It turned out that there was a very unique scent of sandalwood on her sleeves, which was different from ordinary sandalwood.
In her previous life, she became a soul after her death. I wonder if Zhou Mu also had the same incense on her body.
"I have never been in the habit of using incense, and my clothes have never been scented."
Gu Xiyan suddenly had an idea and put her palm between her nose and smelled it. She was stunned when she smelled it.
Zhou Mu saw a strange expression on her face, "Does the girl have sandalwood on her body?"
"Let me clean my hands first and smell it again."
Gu Xiyan quickly found the ancient well, fetched water and purified her hands. Then she smelled it again and found that the aroma was still there.
Zhou Mu saw Gu Xiyan's stunned expression and knew that the sandalwood on Gu Xiyan's body was emanating from her body.
This is strange.
There is someone in this world who has his own fragrance, and the fragrance on her body is exactly the same as the fragrance he usually smells.
"For all these years, has no one told girls that they have their own fragrance?" Zhou Mu questioned.
"It didn't happen before, but a maid next to me mentioned it yesterday. I didn't take it to heart at the time." Gu Xiyan answered truthfully.
Suddenly she had an idea, it must be that after she was reborn, she had the smell of sandalwood on her body.
"Miss, do you know when this strange fragrance first appeared?" Zhou Mu asked again.
"I don't know." Gu Xiyan's eyes were blank and her expression was confused. This expression was somewhat deceptive.
Zhou Mu pondered for a long time and said that things in the world are unpredictable. This may be a coincidence.
He was afraid that someone would come to the back garden again and be seen alone with Gu Xiyan. It was not advisable to stay here for a long time.
"Miss Gu, what happened just now..." Zhou Mu found it difficult to say.
He had indeed taken advantage of Gu Xiyan before. In this case, he should be responsible for her. However, he had no intention of loving his children and had no plans to marry in this life.
"Sir, what happened just now?" Gu Xiyan asked with gentle eyebrows.
She has icy skin and jade skin, and she can conquer frost and snow, but because of the oppression she has had in Wanqing Houfu these years, she always has a lifeless aura about her body.
The moment when the corners of her lips raised, it was like a breeze blowing on her face. No matter how thick the makeup was, it could not cover up her stunning beauty.
Zhou Mu looked at Gu Xiyan intently for a while, and was speechless for a moment.
There is no woman in the world who does not pay attention to honor and integrity, let alone Gu Xiyan, who has just been divorced.
She could have entangled him, but she took the initiative to help him out at this moment, just to make him feel at ease.
"My daughter wants to go to her grandmother to congratulate her on her birthday, so go ahead and stop disturbing the young master." Gu Xiyan turned and left.
She was satisfied in her heart.
In her previous life, she had been with him for so many years, but could not really touch him. After her rebirth, she actually made him frivolous. In these two lives, she was the only one who could get close to such a beautiful woman.
Thinking of Zhou Mu's helpless look in the wooden cabinet just now, the corners of her lips could not help but rise.
In the final analysis, Zhou Mu still suffered.
She sighed to herself and walked away with light steps.
