Chapter 304: Not at Home
Chapter 304: Not at Home
Lang Yue cleared his throat and said with a flattering smile, "Brothers, can you bring me along as well?"
Lang Yue had heard Lin Ruyi praising in front of him more than once how amazing the book Bai Jiwazi was talking about. Even An He and King Rui would often go to listen.
He was really curious about what kind of story could attract such knowledgeable princesses and princes.
The two looked at each other and burst out laughing.
"Walk."
Here, Huaichuan brought the food box to Yaojia's courtyard, and heard Qingzhu say that Yaojia was catching up on her sleep in her room.
Huaichuan handed the food box to Qingzhu, lifted the heavy door curtain and looked inside. As expected, he saw Yaojia lying on the couch and sleeping soundly.
After gently lowering the door curtain, he reminded Qingzhu to remember to warm up the food, then disappeared into the yard.
Qingzhu: …………
Why didn’t you go in and hang out with the girl this time?
Not long after the meal was warmed on the stove, the pale-haired personal servant brought over the sleeping arrangement.
After Qingzhu sent the people away, he looked at the order on the sleeping list and immediately understood why Huaichuan reacted that way.
"This arrangement is really quite harmonious. There is no need to fight or compete for favor. All you have to do is wait in the courtyard for the girl to favor you."
He packed up the clothes that Yao Jia would wear the next day and asked someone to deliver them to Gu Xiyan's courtyard.
When I finished everything and returned to the house, Yao Jia had already woken up.
"Miss, Master Huaichuan has delivered the dinner."
Yao Jia’s head was as thick as a paste due to her sleep, and she responded blankly.
Qingzhu moved the food that was warming on the stove and the low table to the couch.
Yaojia had a simple meal in the evening: a bowl of soft red bean porridge with a few glutinous dumplings and a few refreshing side dishes.
After a while, he finished eating.
Qingzhu asked the servants to take away the dishes and chopsticks, and asked, "Miss, do you want to go to Gu Pingjun's place to bathe, or bathe in the courtyard first and then go there?"
This question confused Yao Jia, "Why should I go to his yard to take a bath?"
Let Qingzhu prepare bath water for you and take a comfortable bath.
After bathing, Qingzhu helped her put on her pajamas. Yaojia turned around to go back to the room, but was stopped by Qingzhu.
"Girl, you'll catch a cold if you go out wearing so little."
"Why am I going out?"
"Don't you have to stay at Gu Pingjun's place tonight?"
"Who said I was going?"
Qingzhu took out the sleeping table from his bosom and handed it to Yaojia, "Miss, this is the sleeping table sent today. You should go to Gu Pingjun tonight."
Yao Jia took the sleeping table and looked at it, frowned slightly, and felt helpless.
"I know, you go down first."
After staying in the house for a long time, he put on the fox fur coat and went out.
Qingzhu wanted to follow her with a lantern in hand, but she refused. He took the lantern from her hand and said with a smile, "I know the way. Hongying has been away for the past few days, and you must be tired. Go back and rest."
Snowflakes were falling outside again. Qingzhu put a hat on Yaojia, sent her to the gate of the courtyard, and watched her leave.
Yao Jia kept walking forward until she heard the sound of the courtyard gate closing. She turned around and walked towards Nangong Xiu Lan's courtyard.
Qingxin Courtyard was very deserted; Nangong Xiulan and Lin Jiang were not there.
"Where's Masaru-kun?"
All the servants shook their heads.
It's really useless to ask them.
He asked everyone to go down and sat in the room waiting for Nangong Xiu Lan to come back.
The charcoal fire exploded with a "bang".
Gu Yi was suddenly awakened, yawned, sat up from the chair, and glanced at Gu Xiyan who was still reading a military book at the desk.
Sighing, "Sir, it's late, do you want to rest?"
Gu Xiyan turned his eyes away from the military book and looked at him. Seeing that he looked sleepy, he smiled and said, "If you are sleepy, go to sleep. Don't worry about me."
"What if the Pavilion Master comes over later..."
Looking at the snow outside the house that was gradually getting heavier, Gu Xiyan smiled bitterly, "It's snowing so hard, I don't think she will come over, so I won't wait any longer. Tell them to bolt the door."
Gu nodded and left the house.
Gu Xiyan took the military book that Yao Jia had written for him, got up and walked to the bedroom, sat on the bed for a long time, and finally turned off the lamp at the bedside...
Yao Jia stayed in Qingxin Courtyard for a full hour, but still no one came back.
I wanted to sleep on Nangong Xiu Lan’s bed, but I was angry inside.
He went out angrily and turned around the white courtyard, but the house was empty too.
I went to the yards of several other people, but they were not there.
I was so confused.
Could it be that Gu Xiyanren has also gone out?
With the attitude of giving it a try, he turned back to Gu Xiyan's courtyard gate.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk-"
It was late at night and the knock on the door was particularly clear in the empty courtyard. Yao Jia stood in front of Gu Xiyan's courtyard door with a hint of uncertainty in her heart.
After a while, there were light footsteps from inside the door, followed by the sound of the bolt being pulled open.
Gu Yi opened the door wearily. Seeing Yao Jia, he was slightly startled, then a big smile broke out on his face, "Pavilion Master, you are finally here!"
Yao Jia looked at the main room and saw that the lights in Gu Xiyan's bedroom were off, so she asked symbolically, "Where is your young master?"
"The young master is reading in the room... uh..." Gu Yi looked at the dark room, speechless for a while, turned around and walked into the room, "The young master should... should have just laid down, I will go wake him up and come out to greet you."
"No, no," Yao Jia hurriedly stopped him, "Let him rest, I...I'll go back first."
Gu Yi hurriedly closed the gate. If he let the Pavilion Master leave, his son would become the laughing stock of the entire Nangong Mansion tomorrow.
He pushed Yao Jia into the house.
Yao Jia stood in front of the door, feeling caught in a dilemma.
Gu Yi quickly lit the lights in the house, illuminating the room brightly.
While busying himself, he whispered, "Master, please go in and have a rest. The young master has been waiting for you for a long time."
Yao Jia felt a little embarrassed and had to go into the house.
The house was as warm as spring, in stark contrast to the cold outside.
Yao Jia asked Gu Yi to go back to bed quickly. Gu Yi nodded with a smile, added warm water to the stove, and walked out with a red face.
Yao Jia glanced at the closed door of the bedroom and simply lay down on the couch in the outer room.
With eyes open, he stared at the roof without blinking.
In his previous life, Gu Xiyan's transformation was the work of the Ghost Doctor. He was able to find the Ghost Doctor because the Ghost Doctor and Mrs. Gu were old acquaintances.
How did Xiao Fengli find the ghost doctor? Could it be related to Concubine De?
If Concubine De is related to the Five Poison Sect, then the cup of poisoned wine she drank before dying in her previous life...
Thinking along these lines, the person who helped Sanlang in his previous life was most likely Xiao Fengli.
The shotgun, the ghost doctor, the Five Poison Sect, Gu Family Castle, Xiao Fengli, and Concubine De, what is the relationship between these people?
Yao Jia turned her head and looked towards the bedroom, feeling mixed emotions.
He slowly stood up, walked to the desk, took out a piece of paper, picked up a pen and drew a formation on it.
He entered the bedroom quietly.
Since Gu Xiyan had fallen asleep, she was too embarrassed to wake him up, so she used 'Life is Like a Dream' to enter his dream and interrogate him.
He tiptoed to the bed, afraid of waking up the sleeping Gu Xiyan, gently lifted a corner of the quilt, and lay down carefully.
Stuff the formation diagram under his pillow.
Do all this, close your eyes, and wait to fall asleep.
As soon as she closed her eyes, Gu Xiyan beside her opened his eyes instantly. His eyes were clear and there was no sign of sleepiness at all. It was obvious that he had been dozing off.
In fact, he woke up the moment Yao Jia entered the courtyard.
I just didn't dare to confirm whether she would come in, so I pretended to be asleep.
He tilted his head slightly, gently stroked her hair on the pillow, and slowly moved his body closer to her.
I smelled her fragrance, which became stronger and stronger. My heartbeat became irregular and I just wanted to be closer to her.
As he moved, Yao Jia's breathing began to become rapid.
Although her eyes were closed, her senses were extremely sharp. She could feel Gu Xiyan's breath gently blowing beside her ears, and could feel his chest rising and falling slowly but powerfully.
It’s torture, it’s really torture!
I simply turned my head and met his eyes.
Gu Xiyan: …………
He took the risk and moved a little closer, close to her lips.
Yao Jia's heartbeat instantly accelerated, her cheeks began to heat up slightly, and she hurriedly turned her face away.
His lips fell on her cheek, the kiss was so hot that it was chilling.
