"This... can't be done. There are many ways to deal with the King of Qin. There is no need to dirty the hands of the young master. I think this matter can be discussed in the long run and not in a hurry." After Qi Zhiyuan said this, he immediately moved away from Zhou Mu.
He really felt that the young master had murderous intentions towards Zhou Xing, just because Zhou Xing said something that he shouldn't have said.
The whole world knew that the Crown Princess was the Young Master's counterpart, and Zhou Xing deliberately used this to anger the Young Master. He felt that either Zhou Xing didn't want to live, or that Zhou Xing was deliberately provoking and testing the Young Master.
"That's right, it's so easy to kill him, it's better to let him live in pain." Zhou Mu knew that his trip was not in vain.
There was indeed a secret between Zhou Xing and Gu Xiyan that he didn't know. This was the reason why Zhou Xing went out of his way and deliberately provoked him, and it was also the reason why Gu Xiyan suddenly wanted to make peace with him.
In short, it has something to do with Zhou Xing, a low-level worker.
Gu Xiyan didn't receive any news. When Zhou Mu took her to the waterside pavilion for dinner, she saw Zhou Xing and Liu Chaoyan. She suddenly turned to look at Zhou Mu, "Did Young Master invite them here?"
She said that she was not having dinner at Qishiyuan, so why did she come to Shuixie? It turned out that he had invited Zhou Xing and his wife to come over.
Zhou Mu gently nudged the tip of her nose, "The great joy of your pregnancy must be shared with someone. I thought of Prince Qin and his wife, so I specially came to visit them to share my excitement with them."
Gu Xiyan thought he was quite good at pretending. Before today, he would yell at their children to beat and kill them, and talk about happy events in the blink of an eye. There is no man more fickle than him.
Zhou Xing was standing in front of the waterside pavilion, looking at the night view of the lake. Perhaps he felt something. When he turned around, he saw that the woman who had been leaning on his arms and breathless in his dream yesterday was being held gently in Zhou Mu's arms.
A twisted jealousy welled up from deep in his heart. He could not forget the moment when Xi Yan died in his arms and his desire to destroy the world. At this moment, he wanted to kill Zhou Mu with a thousand swords.
Thousands of pieces.
If Zhou Mu hadn't interfered, he would have had a chance to make up for the mistakes of his previous life.
Although Gu Xiyan didn't look at Zhou Xing, she knew that Zhou Xing was staring at her.
Obviously her previous life had passed and she no longer needed to be afraid of Zhou Xing, but being stared at by Zhou Xing like this made her feel as if she was still living in her previous life and was still under Zhou Xing's control. This feeling was very bad.
As soon as Liu Chaoyan saw Gu Xiyan, he greeted her warmly: "I heard that sister...sister-in-law is happy. Congratulations to sister-in-law."
Gu Xiyan tugged at the corners of her lips, her expression stiff: "Same joy."
When Zhou Mu helped Gu Xiyan take a seat, the gauze was suddenly pulled up behind the seat where she was sitting, blocking the harsh autumn wind by the lake from the layers of gauze.
Liu Chaoyan was not so lucky. Her position happened to be staggered from Gu Xiyan's, and it happened to be at the wind outlet. She didn't feel it before she sat down. After sitting down, the cold wind blew towards her forehead, which made her feel uncomfortable.
Headache.
She felt very uncomfortable and subconsciously looked at Zhou Xing, but Zhou Xing's eyes were fixed on Gu Xiyan's face and he asked with concern: "Is sister-in-law cold?"
The way he cared about Gu Xiyan, people who didn't know it thought he was Gu Xiyan's husband.
Zhou Mu frowned slightly when he saw this scene.
During the day, he discovered that Zhou Xing was different from ever before.
Before today, it was impossible for Zhou Xing to express his concern for Gu Xiyan so boldly, let alone look at Gu Xiyan so directly in front of him and Liu Chaoyan.
As if overnight, Zhou Xing had nothing to worry about.
Gu Xiyan pretended not to hear Zhou Xing's question and ate her dinner absentmindedly.
She felt that she should reveal her identity as Mr. Yan to Zhou Mu as soon as possible, otherwise Zhou Mu would not be happy if she learned about it from Zhou Xing.
When Zhou Mu was about to prepare food for Gu Xiyan, Zhou Xing got ahead of him and brought food to Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan frowned slightly and looked at Zhou Xing coldly.
Zhou Xing seemed unable to see her cold gaze and said softly: "Sister-in-law is pregnant and should eat more."
Fortunately, Zhou Mu created the opportunity for him to see her again at such a close distance.
Zhou Mu originally wanted to test Zhou Xing, but he didn't expect Zhou Xing to cause trouble for him, and Zhou Xing dared to be courteous to Gu Xiyan in front of him.
"I only eat the vegetables that my husband brings to me." Gu Xiyan said, and simply ordered someone to move the small bowl full of vegetables away.
She held out her bowl to Zhou Mu and looked at him eagerly.
Zhou Mu finally felt more at ease, this girl knew how to comfort him, it wasn't too outrageous.
Only Liu Chaoyan was filled with hatred.
Next was Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan's home court. The two couples showed off their affection as if no one else was around. Zhou Xing had no chance to show it off. But his eyes were glued to Gu Xiyan, making no secret of his admiration for Gu Xiyan.
After a meal, Zhou Xing was finally defeated.
Seeing that Gu Xiyan wanted to leave with Zhou Mu, Zhou Xing followed him: "Xiyan, I have something important to tell you, about the person we talked about during the day..."
Gu Xiyan heard the naked threat in Zhou Xing's words. She turned back to look at Zhou Xing and opened her lips calmly: "If King Qin has anything to say, just say it now."
She will not be afraid of his threats.
She originally planned to confess to Zhou Mu that she was Mr. Yan, but it was ridiculous for Zhou Xing to think that he could use this to manipulate her!
Zhou Xing's original intention was not to make Gu Xiyan unhappy, he just wanted to stay with her for a while longer.
Seeing the undisguised disgust for her in her eyes at this moment, a dense tingling feeling surged into his heart, and he frowned: "You are pregnant for the first time, so you need to take care of yourself. If you encounter something that cannot be solved in the future,
, you can come to me..."
"If King Qin has nothing else to do, you can leave." Gu Xiyan interrupted Zhou Xing's self-righteousness impatiently.
Zhou Xing called her by her given name in front of Zhou Mu, where did that put Zhou Mu?
What she couldn't stand the most was Zhou Xing's affectionate look.
Liu Chaoyan had already become numb after the initial shock. She was afraid that Zhou Xing would do something out of line again, so she hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Brother A Xing and I will come visit my sister-in-law next time we have a chance."
Zhou Xing was stuck in place, so she had no choice but to hold his arm and drag him away.
It wasn't until Zhou Xing and Liu Chaoyan walked away that Gu Xiyan looked at Zhou Mu.
Under the darkness of night, Zhou Mu's expression could not be seen clearly, except for a pair of eyes that were extremely deep, like a bottomless black hole.
She cleared her throat and said softly: "Husband, let's go back to Qi Shiyuan?"
As soon as Zhou Mu heard the word "husband" from her, he knew that she was guilty.
It was obvious that he invited Zhou Xing here intentionally to test Zhou Xing, but in the end, he was made angry by Zhou Xing.
Zhou Mu left Gu Xiyan and walked forward. Gu Xiyan knew that he felt uncomfortable.
She was about to speed up her pace to catch up, but Zhou Mu turned back and gently raised his chin to her: "You go ahead."
Gu Xiyan didn't understand why he was doing this for a moment and was stuck in place.
