Zhou Mu was staring intently at Gu Xiyanying's jade-white earlobes, but when he heard her warning, he could only return to his original position and lie down.
Just bear with it a little longer. When they get married in a month, she won't have to be a piece of meat on his chopping board. He can do whatever he wants?
Just lying there like this, unable to do anything, was very painful for him.
I don’t know if it’s because his self-control has deteriorated, or because Xi Yan is so attractive, just looking at her makes him want to move.
Gu Xiyan really wanted to sleep, but Zhou Mu's presence was too strong, and the man kept staring at her. If his eyes had any substance, she would have been stripped clean by him.
Two quarters of an hour later, she was still asleep and turned back to glare at him angrily.
Zhou Mu was looking at Gu Xiyan's back in a daze. When he saw Gu Xiyan looking back at him, he immediately smiled back at him: "Can't you sleep?"
Do you need him to hold her to sleep?
"I can't sleep with you here." Gu Xiyan replied honestly.
Zhou Mu's smile faded in an instant: "You want to drive me out of bed, no way! You just promised me, you can't break your promise."
Gu Xiyan glared at him again.
Forget it, she has nothing to do with this guy.
At that moment, she stopped looking at him, turned around and continued to stay up for a long time. As time passed, and the room was very quiet, she fell asleep unconsciously, and she didn't know when she fell asleep.
When she woke up and stood up in a daze, she was startled when she saw the man on the bed.
"You wake up and don't even recognize your husband?" Zhou Mu approached Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan had recovered by now, "I forgot about it for a moment."
When she opened her eyes just now, she saw him looking at her intently, "Master, won't you be awake all the time?"
"It's the first time I sleep with you today, and I can't bear to close my eyes." Zhou Mu felt that the time was almost up, "Get up, I will take you out of the Marquis Mansion for a walk."
Gu Xiyan saw snowflakes falling outside the window and didn't want to move: "It's so cold outside, why don't you walk?"
Zhou Mu directly carried the person over, so frightened that Gu Xiyan did not dare to move.
Zhou Mu held the person in his hands and realized how different women were from men. She smelled delicious and her body was as soft as a boneless person.
A wave of anger surged up, Zhou Mu took a deep breath, and finally decided to put the person down: "I'll help you tie your hair."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiyan quickly stopped: "No, let Qiushi come."
"I'll do it!" Zhou Mu didn't give Gu Xiyan a chance to refute.
Gu Xiyan deeply felt that Zhou Mu was actually very authoritarian. Whatever he decided, he would definitely do it, just like this.
Facts have proved that Zhou Mu may have talent in other areas, but he is not good at tying women's hair.
After finally pulling her hair into a loose girlish bun, Gu Xiyan said happily: "Is it finally possible?"
Zhou Mu looked at the smile on her face and said silently: "What do you think?"
Gu Xiyan's apricot eyes were clear and bright: "Very good."
As long as you don't torment her anymore, she feels fine.
Zhou Mu felt that he had wasted a lot of time, so he gritted his teeth and said: "I will do better next time, but this time you will just make do with it."
"I won't give in." Gu Xiyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Just like that, Zhou Mu took Gu Xiyan out of Wanqinghou Mansion.
Gu Xiyan didn't know where he was taking her, and she didn't ask any more questions until she went to the river and saw a painting boat.
"Follow me." Zhou Mu held Gu Xiyan's hand tightly and got on the boat.
The painting boat is hung with all kinds of complicated palace lanterns, which are as bright as day.
There were many beautiful girls on the boat, holding various musical instruments in their hands, and some girls were wearing flimsy dance clothes. The light snow was still falling, and Gu Xiyan felt cold just looking at it.<
/p>
"Did you prepare this in advance?" Gu Xiyan asked doubtfully.
Zhou Mu looked at her tenderly: "Zhiyuan prepared it. Today is New Year's Eve, the first New Year that you and I have spent. I hope to accompany you from this year to next."
He knew that this girl had never spent a complete New Year's Eve since she was a child. She had been isolated by the Liu family since she was a child. She spent big days like New Year's Eve alone in Xiyuan.<
/p>
And he hopes to stay with her every year for the rest of his life.
Gu Xiyan looked at Zhou Mu blankly, her eyes a little sore.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to be cared about.
She was used to celebrating the New Year alone, so of course the Marquis would not call her to celebrate the New Year. Her mother died young, and she and Liu Shuzheng were separated from their father-daughter relationship. Marquis Wanqing had several of his biological children, and the young Gu family only had
Liu Junyan, how can you care about her?
She has never been in the habit of staying up late on New Year's Eve. She usually goes to bed early after returning to Xiyuan to talk to Shen's mother and the others about personal matters.
"Where did you spend the New Year before?" Gu Xiyan let out a breath and suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart.
"I have spent the past twenty years in the Fallen Immortal Temple, but I will also keep the New Year's Eve." Unlike her, she has never had the habit of keeping the New Year's Eve, because she has long regarded herself as an orphan and does not need to pray for her elders.
Gu Xiyan was a little surprised: "Your Majesty, are you willing to let the young master celebrate the New Year alone in the Fallen Immortal Temple?"
Zhou Mu's lips curled up slightly: "I don't want to go to the palace to celebrate the New Year, so my father will accommodate me. Sometimes he secretly goes to the Fallen Immortal Temple to stay with me on New Year's Eve. Sometimes I can't get away, and there's nothing I can do. Today I'm going to the palace to stay with me.
He had a reunion dinner and he seemed very happy."
"That's for sure. Your Majesty likes the young master so much. Sometimes I'm quite envious that the young master has a good father." Gu Xiyan thought for a while: "To be precise, I'm a little jealous."
She has no family ties in her life, but she doesn't feel regret at all because she has the best and most loving mother-in-law, even though her mother-in-law passed away when she was still young.
"You don't need to be envious or jealous, because what's mine is yours. The person I like, my dad will also like very much." Zhou Mu looked at the snowflakes flying in the sky, and for the first time in his life, he felt that the Chinese New Year was a very meaningful event.
Festival.
After that, Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan sat together eating and drinking, enjoying dancing and singing.
There is not only their boat in the river, but also many other boats from the Qin Lou and Chu Pavilions. They are singing and dancing inside, but they are no less deserted than their boat.
Later, Zhou Mu felt that the songs and dances prepared by Qi Zhiyuan were boring and that the idle crowd was an eyesore, so he drove them all to the other end of the boat.
There was no extra person, so Zhou Mu took matters into his own hands and played a piece for Gu Xiyan. It was "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" that Gu Xiyan had heard him play earlier.
Xu Yanqing and Dong Yong were in a painting boat not far away. Not only them, but also some famous gentlemen who were usually close to each other were also among them.
Dong Yong had the sharpest ears and instantly captured the sound of the piano coming from not far away.
He immediately signaled the singer to stop and listened carefully, "It's wonderful, who played "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" with such high skill that I have never heard of it."
