Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 141 Deliberate

Young Master Gu?

Isn’t she someone close to Young Master Gu?

The people in the General's Mansion didn't expect Gu Qingyuan to come back at night. They stepped forward and said to her politely, "Young Master is back. I will go and inform the General right away."

"Need not."

Gu Qingyuan didn’t know if her mother had rested at this time, and she didn’t want to disturb her.

When the servants of the general's mansion heard Gu Qingyuan say that it was not necessary, they stopped.

"Just do what you need to do, don't worry about me."

The servant returned to his post, looking at Gu Qingyuan and the man beside her whom he seemed to have never seen before, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

When Gu Qingyuan turned around to look at Lin Xinghe again, he involuntarily took a step back.

So, the one who came out to save me tonight, walked with me, and talked to me about Young Master Gu was actually her.

Lin Xinghe didn't know how to face her now. His heart was originally full of joy and anticipation, but when he thought about how he would look in front of her, he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

He stammered, "So... So... You are Young Master Gu."

Gu Qingyuan had an apologetic look on her face. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you. I just haven't figured out how to tell you yet."

It turned out to be the case.

Lin Xinghe believed her words easily. It turned out that she was not lying to him on purpose.

"fine."

After knowing her identity, Lin Xinghe became nervous when facing her.

"I don't know how to eat people."

Seeing that he looked a little nervous, Gu Qingyuan teased him.

"Didn't you say you wanted to see me? Why are you acting like this now?"

Lin Xinghe hugged the wooden eagle in his arms tightly and said, "How can they be the same?"

"Okay, I apologize. It's my fault. I shouldn't have lied to you. But I didn't tell you my identity directly because I wanted to understand why you were looking for me."

Of course she did it on purpose, wanting to see what expression he would have after he knew her identity.

However, seeing how he is now, I definitely can’t say it directly.

"Are you tired? You've been walking for so long."

The two men walked to a place some distance away from the general's mansion and stood against the wall.

"A little."

Lin Xinghe leaned against the wall to rest. After knowing her identity, he couldn't help but want to look at her a few more times.

"By the way, you haven't told me your name yet."

Gu Qingyuan suddenly realized that she had not yet asked him who he was. When did she provoke this young master? She had no recollection of him at all!

"...Don't you know me?"

Lin Xinghe looked at her with his dark eyes, his eyes full of seriousness.

Gu Qingyuan shook her head honestly. She felt that he looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him.

"My name is Lin Xinghe."

Lin Xinghe said his name very seriously, and every word seemed to hit her heart.

After hearing this name, Gu Qingyuan's pupils dilated. Isn't this Lin Weiwei's son?

When she entered the palace, she met Lin Weiwei, who later wanted to introduce his son to her, saying that it would strengthen the relationship between the two families.

Looking at her expression, Lin Xinghe was a little disappointed. She really didn't remember it.

There were so many people around her, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time, so it was normal that she couldn't remember. Lin Xinghe comforted himself.

"Lin Xinghe..."

Gu Qingyuan called out his name, and her voice scratched Lin Xinghe's heart like a feather, making him feel numb all over.

"Yeah." He responded to Gu Qingyuan.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and handed the wooden eagle to her.

"This, this is a gift for you."

He finished speaking quickly and stuffed the thing into Gu Qingyuan's hands.

After Gu Qingyuan got it, she saw that he had left his back to her.

"I'm going back!"

He walked quickly, as if he was afraid that Gu Qingyuan would refuse and then return the things to him.

Gu Qingyuan did not follow him immediately, but walked to the general's mansion and asked someone to escort him back.

Lin Xinghe thought she would catch up with him and say something to him, but he had already walked a long way and didn't hear her calling him.

When he turned around, she was nowhere to be found.

Feeling wronged, Lin Xinghe felt his eyes moisten and kicked a small stone on the side of the road.

After escorting Lin Xinghe all the way back to the Lin family, the servants of the general's mansion went back to report.

After Lin Xinghe returned, he tiptoed around, not even daring to turn on the light, and almost tripped.

Anyway, I did see her today. She talked to me so much and even accepted my gift.

Lin Xinghe cheered up again. She didn't seem to hate him, which meant he still had a chance.

After confirming that he arrived home safely, Gu Qingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

I was feeling a bit depressed tonight, but now I feel better.

Afterwards, the woman who was sent to the authorities matched the description of the person who had recently reported the case.

She lost her home and her face in a fire, so she set out for revenge.

They would wait for lone men on the road, brutally kill them, and do some excessive things to the corpses.

Later, the government immediately decided to execute the woman. After her death, more and more people went out at night.

……

Ye Wu returned home.

When Ye's mother saw him, she said coldly, "The rich businessman will marry you in a few days. Don't go out during these days."

"But, mother, that person is so old. Besides, I heard that she is almost dying..."

Mother Ye scolded him: "That's why you want to marry her. When she dies, her family business will belong to our Ye family."

Ye Wu gave a bitter smile and wanted to go back to rest.

But at this time, his sisters all jumped out and said to him, "Brother, sacrificing you will benefit our whole family. Our mother can only get a small salary every month, and our family expenses are so high."

"Yes, yes, after you marry us, we can get the five hundred taels."

And there will definitely be a lot of betrothal gifts at that time. Thinking of this, they couldn't help but be excited.

Ye Wu lowered his head and said nothing.

He didn't know whether Gu Qingyuan would come, and he had already made the worst-case scenario plan in his mind.

If he really had to marry the woman who had one foot in the earth, he would rather commit suicide.

"By the way, is there any problem at the academy?"

Ye Li asked him.

"After all, I'm going to go to the academy after school starts."

"No problem." Ye Wu said lightly.

He originally lived outside, and no one in the academy except Gu Qingyuan discovered that he was a man.

"That's good."

Afterwards, a group of people tried to persuade him earnestly, as if it was for his own good.

Ye Wu felt annoyed, but he had to listen to them one by one. They were all thinking about themselves, but no one cared about his feelings.

He gave a sarcastic smile.

This is his family.
