What a Coincidence

it's clear.

Chang'an, who was playing by the lake, caught a glimpse of Duanmu Chen coming out of Yuanming Pavilion from the corner of his eye. He immediately threw the stones in his hand and ran over, "Master, are you going back so soon?"

Duanmu Chen looked back at Yuanming Pavilion and hummed, "Crazy, really crazy."

Chang An was confused, "Who is crazy?"

"Who else can it be? Su Liang!" Duanmu Chen walked out.

Chang An felt like a cat scratching his head and chased Duanmu Chen to ask what happened to Su Liang and why he said she was crazy.

"She was fascinated by Gu Ling." Duanmu Chen said in a faint tone.

Chang'an was stunned for a moment, and then blurted out, "The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. They are both beauties, and they are both lonely. What a perfect match!"

Duanmu Chen paused and looked at Chang'an with a frown, "Do you really think they are a good match?"

Chang'an blinked, "Is this allowed to be said..."

Duanmu Chen hummed, "If Gu Ling doesn't like Su Liang, but Su Liang wants to pursue him, do you think this is appropriate? Is this still Su Liang?"

Chang'an thought for a while and said, "We just met. If Gu Hou doesn't like Miss Su today, he might like her tomorrow, so why not? Miss Su has always been a straightforward and open-minded person. If you like her, you like her, and if you don't like her, you don't like her."

Duanmu Chen looked confused, "Does she have such a temperament that she will fall for one person?"

Chang'an said seriously, "Miss Su is really good-natured. Master is surprised. Actually, it's because Miss Su didn't meet the right person before. Now that she has, she naturally shows a side that Master has never seen before."

Duanmu Chen asked, "What's peace then?"

Chang An shook his head, "I think Mr. Ning and Miss Su are just close friends. Although they have a tacit understanding, there is something missing..."

"What's missing?" Duanmu Chen asked.

Chang'an thought for a long time, and when he walked out of Su's house, he slapped his forehead and said, "It's impulsive! If you really like someone, you will become uncool. When Miss Su and Mr. Ning are together, one is calmer than the other. Now, If Miss Su wants to pursue Gu Hou, she won't give up even if she is rejected. This is impulsive! If the master doesn't think it's like her, then that means Miss Su is really tempted!"

"Where did you hear so much nonsense?" Duanmu Chen was speechless.

Changan bowed his head weakly, "That's what it says in the script..."

Duanmu Chen:......

…

Su Liang simply packed the luggage she brought back. Since no one in the palace came to tell her about it, she didn't take the initiative to go.

"Sister Su! Sister Su!"

Lin Xueqing's voice sounded, followed by footsteps going upstairs.

Xing Yusheng didn't go up, but sat on the first floor, muttering, "Su Liang really fell in love with Gu Ling? I'm such a prophet!" He smiled as he said, "The CP I knocked on turned out to be a destiny." Satisfied, very satisfied.

When Lin Xueqing saw Su Liang, she took her hand and sat down. Looking at her expression, she asked eagerly, "I heard that you fell in love at first sight with the beauty Chang Xinhou Gu?"

Su Liang nodded.

"Really? I thought Ajun was exaggerating! Do you like Gu Meiren? Really like him? Want to be with him?" Lin Xueqing asked several questions in succession.

Su Liang nodded again.

Lin Xueqing was happy, "Sister Su, you don't even know that my husband and I originally wanted to wait for you to come back to create an opportunity to bring you and Marquis Changxin together. Unexpectedly, we didn't do anything, and you two met. What a fate." !”

Su Liang: ...Yes, we discussed it early. The "love at first sight" that Gu Ling waited for every day at Wanjia Restaurant was indeed fate, the fate of acting together.

Lin Xueqing was particularly happy, "It's great! Gu Hou is so beautiful, like a fairy, and Sister Su has such good eyesight! No one else is worthy of him, and no one else is worthy of you. How well you two match!"

Su Liang sighed slightly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just arrived and said that Marquis Changxin complained to the Emperor that I touched him. He thought I was very bold and asked me to stay away from him in the future."

Lin Xueqing was dumbfounded, "What?" After a while, she realized what she was doing and started to snap, "Is there something wrong with his eyes? Isn't there something wrong with his eyes? It's totally unreasonable for me to not like Sister Su who is so pretty and cute!"

Xing Yusheng downstairs frowned slightly:...Gu Ling doesn't like Su Liang? So what is he looking for? Is it possible that Gu Ling's heart belongs to someone else? That shouldn't be the case. He looks like he won't get close to strangers. He was a wanted anti-thief before. How can any good girl follow him?

Su Liang pulled Lin Xueqing to sit down, "Don't get excited. It's just a misunderstanding. I won't give up."

Lin Xueqing was even more surprised when she heard this, "Sister Su, are you going to pursue Marquis Changxin?"

Su Liang smiled, "No?"

Lin Xueqing shook her head, "That's not it, it just feels like... Oh, I can't tell you. Please tell me quickly, how do you plan to chase him?"

"Lonicera." Su Liang suddenly shouted downstairs.

Lonicera, who was waiting outside, immediately rushed upstairs. Xing Yusheng only saw a shadow drifting from not far away.

"I'll give you a task." Su Liang said to Lonicera.

Lonicera nodded, "Master, please give me your instructions."

"Go to Wanjia Restaurant and book the room next to the private room reserved by Marquis Changxin for me. I will eat there from now on." Su Liang said.

"Yes!" Lonicera immediately turned around and went downstairs to do errands.

Lin Xueqing sighed, "Sister Su, you are so courageous!" In this world, it is not only very rare for a woman to pursue a man, but also rarely such a high-profile one.

Xing Yusheng's voice came from downstairs, "Su Liang, I support you, take down Gu Meiren quickly! When you two get married, I will block the door! If he doesn't call me brother, he can't even come in, haha!"

…

After leaving the Su Mansion, Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing went back to the Zhongxin Marquis Mansion to tell Old Lady Xing about Su Liang.

When Old Lady Xing heard that Su Liang liked Gu Ling and wanted to pursue her, she couldn't help but bend over with laughter, "Then wait for their wedding! That's great, the person Liang girl likes must be right!"

Lin Shuzhi and Old Master Qin, who had talked about Su Liang and Gu Ling before, felt that they were right after hearing about it, and the two of them were really destined to be together.

Later that day, the news that Su Liang had booked the private room next to Gu Ling spread in the capital, which made everyone's gossip hearts rise.

In the evening, when Gu Ling appeared at Wanjia Restaurant on time as usual, Su Liang had already arrived first, and even used his personal relationship with the owner of Wanjia Restaurant to go into the private room booked by Gu Ling and take a look.

But Su Liang didn't come alone, she was accompanied by Yan Yu. She brought a medicine box with her. This is normal. Su Liang carried it with her almost everywhere she went.

Gu Ling entered his private room, closed the doors and windows, and blocked the view from outside.

Soon, the waiter quietly served the dishes and left.

Gu Ling did not pick up his chopsticks immediately, but got up and looked for something in the room.

After a while, Gu Ling found an oil paper bag from the wide-mouthed vase in the room and took it out.

And this was the real purpose of Su Liang coming to Wanjia Restaurant for dinner, to give Gu Ling snacks...

Gu Ling heard others talking about Su Liang entering his private room, and guessed that she must have hidden something in.

Now Duanmu Yi sent people to watch day and night, and the two could not meet privately for the time being, and could only contact each other through Su Liang's "fanatical pursuit" behavior.

Open the oil paper bag, inside is Gu Ling's favorite pumpkin seeds, which Su Liang made the day before leaving Sujia Village, with five spices.

There is also a note inside, with a question on it: Can Xiaonian show up?

Gu Ling took out a piece of paper with words written on it from his bosom and quickly folded it into a thousand paper cranes. Then, he put the note given by Su Liang into his purse, rewrapped the oil paper bag and put it back into the vase, and put the thousand paper cranes in it.

Then, he sat back at the table and started eating.

"Aunt!"

Zheng'er's cheerful voice came from outside the door, and Gu Ling glanced in the direction of the door.

Wan Hui knew that Su Liang was here, so she brought Zheng'er to find her, and also wanted to ask about Su Liang and Gu Ling.

As a result, Zheng'er asked when Uncle Ning would come back.

Su Liang still said he didn't know, thinking that your uncle was next door, but it was a pity that he couldn't recognize you. But this is only temporary.

Gu Ling almost finished eating, and asked the waiter to make a soup, which he wanted to take back as a midnight snack.

Not long after, the waiter brought in an exquisite food box, and saw that Gu Ling was still drinking tea, so he put it down and left.

Gu Ling took out the oil paper bag from the vase again, put it in the food box, and left.

Ren Dong, who was guarding outside Su Liang's door, saw Gu Ling coming out and immediately knocked on the door to report to Su Liang, "Master, Marquis Changxin is leaving."

So, under the attention of all the diners in the restaurant, Su Liang rushed out of the room, met Gu Ling, and said to him with a sweet smile, "What a coincidence! We meet again!"

Onlookers:... It's really Qiao'er's mother who opened the door for Qiao'er, what a coincidence!

Gu Ling's eyes passed over Su Liang's smiling eyes, expressionless, and nodded slightly, "Miss Su."

"It's better to meet by chance than to invite each other, let's have a drink together?" Su Liang invited Gu Ling.

Gu Ling shook his head, "I don't want to drink today. Please let Miss Su go."

"What about tomorrow? Don't want to drink, let's go to Huguo Temple to watch the clouds together?" Su Liang suggested.

"I don't want to watch the clouds tomorrow." Gu Ling looked indifferent.

Yan Yu came out to pull Su Liang back, and Su Liang smiled at Gu Ling, "See you tomorrow."

Ren Dong closed Su Liang's door from the outside, and Gu Ling went downstairs with a lunch box.

The onlookers were sighing, Su Zhuangyuan is indeed a heroine, she is really brave to pursue Gu Meiren! However, it seems that Gu Meiren is unmoved, but many people think they are a good match. It's easy for a woman to pursue a man, and Gu Meiren will definitely not last for a few days!

Before Su Liang left the restaurant, he entered Gu Ling's private room with an exquisite and precious vase, and changed to another vase when he came out.

Regarding this matter, it was said that Su Liang specially changed a very beautiful vase to Gu Ling's room to please him.

But Yan Yu knew that everything was fake. However, Su Liang had asked Yan Yu to help her get a batch of beautiful vases. She would change vases for him every day when she wanted to send a message to Gu Ling in the future.

Yan Yu just wanted to say that compared with Su Liang and Gu Ling, her love with Nian Jincheng was really ordinary...

On the carriage back to the mansion, Su Liang took out the thousand paper cranes left by Gu Ling from his purse, gently pulled the tail of the paper crane, and the wings began to flap.

"So clever!" Yan Yu took it and looked at it, and then gave it back to Su Liang.

When he returned home, Su Liang went back to his room and opened the thousand paper cranes. On it was a letter written by Gu Ling with his left hand, which was about Nian Jincheng, which coincided with Su Liang's story.

Yan Yu sighed, "The tacit understanding between you two is also invincible. He had already guessed what you wanted to ask and prepared the answer." There were no four treasures of the study in the private room of the restaurant. This must have been prepared by Gu Ling before he went there.

Gu Ling wrote in the letter that Yan Shiba was controlled by Yan Shiqi, so he didn't need to worry about them for the time being. He asked Nian Jincheng to "return" to the capital within three days to meet Duanmu Yi, saying that he was rescued by Yan Shiba, and Yan Shiba forced him to tell the whereabouts of Gu Ling, but he didn't say it because he really didn't know. Later, there was a civil strife in Yanyun Tower, and Yan Shiba was usurped by Yan Shiqi. Nian Jincheng took advantage of the chaos to escape and hid in a mountain in the north. He didn't come back until he went down the mountain to buy food and heard that he and Gu Ling were pardoned.

After reading it, Su Liang handed it to Yan Yu, who breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great." Then he took the paper to find Nian Jincheng.

It was late at night.

After taking a bath, Su Liang was ready to rest, and told Ren Dong, "I'm fine here, you should go and rest too."

"Yes, master." Ren Dong responded.

After Su Liang's room was dark, another quarter of an hour later, Ren Dong secretly left the Su Mansion and went to the direction of the palace.

…

Ren Dong reported in detail what she had seen around Su Liang during this period, including how Su Liang got along well with the people in Sujia Village, what she did every day, the assassination she encountered on the way, and Su Liang's heartbeat for Gu Ling after returning to Beijing.

Duanmu Yi's face darkened when he heard the last part, "Does she really like Gu Ling?"

Ren Dong nodded, "To reply to the emperor, yes, Miss Su really wants to pursue Marquis Changxin."

Duanmu Yi's eyes condensed and he remained silent for a long time.

Ren Dong knelt on the ground, her legs were stiff, and then she heard Duanmu Yi asking her to get up, "Go back and keep watching, don't let her find out you left."

Ren Dong bowed and left the palace.

After returning to the Su Mansion, she went to the door of Su Liang's room again and knocked twice gently.

"How is it?" Su Liang's voice came from the room.

"The emperor asked if the master really liked Marquis Changxin, and the subordinate said yes, and the emperor looked uneasy." Ren Dong reported.

Su Liang snorted lightly, which was not surprising, because she had long guessed that Duanmu Yi had feelings for her. It was just right to use Gu Ling to see what Duanmu Yi would do.

After Ren Dong left, Su Liang closed his eyes and went to sleep.

…

Changxin Marquis Mansion.

It was past midnight, and the light was still on in Gu Ling's room. The dark guard who was hiding in the tree waiting for his "colleague" to come to take over the shift wrapped his clothes tightly, rubbed his eyes, and was almost unable to hold on.

In the room, Gu Ling finally completely repaired the medical book that was torn in half in Sujia Village, sandwiched between the two books, and pressed a wooden box on top.

Then, Gu Ling took out the illustrations that Su Liang had drawn when he told him stories every day before going to bed. He had bound them into a picture book. While he was looking at it, he used pumpkin seeds to spell Su Liang's name on the table.

If Su Liang was here at this moment, he would definitely complain: What a psychopath!

Then, Gu Ling slowly ate the spelled "Su Liang" bit by bit.

Su Liang suddenly appeared in front of him today, smiling like a flower, and Gu Ling muttered to himself inaudibly, "What a coincidence, you came here and appeared in front of me."
