Chapter 167 Pretentious

Gu Huaizhi's eyebrows beat a beat, Su Wan was angry.

This is nothing more than a disaster from heaven.

Gu Huaizhi turned back to his carriage helplessly, caught up with Su Wan's carriage, and followed leisurely.

"Master, we've caught up." Mo Yuan warned, and saw Gu Jingyun's head sticking out of the car window and looking towards him. He was quickly grabbed by the back of his neck and pulled in: "..."

"Ouch -" Gu Jingyun fell to the floor without any pain from the fall. He straightened up like a carp and brushed against Su Wan: "Sister-in-law, brother is chasing me."

Su Wan didn't answer and scolded him sternly: "Don't stick your head out of the car window. If someone rides a fast horse or a carriage gallops past, your head will be divided."

"Sister-in-law, I know I was wrong." Gu Jingyun was thinking about his elder brother and said aggrievedly: "The elder brother didn't pay attention to that woman because he was warning her not to ruin his innocence."

Gu Baozhu nodded at the side: "Yeah, yeah! My eldest brother also said that he is henpecked." She asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, what does henpecked mean?"

Gu Jingyun rushed to answer: "Stupid! This is because you are afraid of your wife!"

"..." Su Wan had a headache.

Cao Suxue and Gu Huaizhi had a blind date. Although it didn't work out, Cao Suxue was still determined to be evil.

Su Wan felt particularly eye-catching when she saw the two of them standing together.

She knew very well in her heart that Gu Huaizhi was innocent, so Cao Suxue approached him. Since Mr. Cao always had to be polite, there seemed to be an unknown fire burning in her heart. She couldn't stay rational, couldn't help being angry, and didn't want to talk to him.

Su Wan took out a pot of water from the closet and took two sips before she could barely suppress the sour water in her heart.

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry. If you don't want to talk to eldest brother, we will ignore him today." Gu Baozhu easily defected to Su Wan's side and took out a small paper bag from his sleeve. She opened the paper bag and found a piece of paper inside. She stuffed some of the melted candy into Su Wan's mouth and said softly: "When I was young, my family was poor and it was difficult to eat candy. When I was injured or missed my father, my mother would take out a piece of candy and hit it with the back of a knife. Break it into pieces and give it to my second brother and me. She said that when she is unhappy, eating a little sugar will make her feel sweet and forget the unhappy things."

Su Wan held the candy in her mouth, and the sweet taste went straight to her heart. She hugged Gu Baozhu and rested her head on her shoulder.

When days are too bitter, even eating sweets can't hide the bitter taste, and the bitter taste will only multiply.

This statement is just to explain yourself.

"Sister-in-law, are you in a good mood?" Gu Baozhu touched Su Wan's head.

Su Wan smiled: "Okay." I just feel sorry for you.

I'm afraid Gu Huaizhi's mood will be even worse.

Obviously he has the ability to improve the conditions of his family and prevent his younger brothers and sisters from suffering, but due to Gu Jingyun's status, he does not dare to keep a high profile. If you are not careful, it will be a disaster.

"This candy is very sweet." Su Wan raised her head and rubbed her fingers across Gu Baozhu's forehead, where there was a scar from the original owner and a faint pink mark.

During this period of time, Gu Baozhu has grown flesh on her body and her skin is slowly turning white.

Gu Baozhu smiled happily and said, "I still have a lot of candies." She put the rest in the car closet, her eyes shining: "Sister-in-law, you can eat one if you want."

"Okay." Su Wan was in a brighter mood.

I rubbed my cheeks and felt that I was getting more alive, and I was actually being coaxed by a child.

He was planning in his mind to develop an ointment to remove the scar on Gu Baozhu's forehead.

Except for greeting Gu Baozhu and Gu Jingyun at the beginning, Xiao Tao had been sitting in the corner. She was very happy to see the brother and sister getting close to Su Wan.

Gu Jingyun was lying on the window, paying attention to the movement of the carriage behind him, and suddenly realized that he was falling behind.

His eyes widened, and he wanted to stick his head out to see what was going on. Remembering Su Wan's instructions, he could only worry secretly, hoping that his eldest brother would go home as soon as possible to resolve the misunderstanding.

While Gu Jingyun was praying, the carriage stopped at the door of Gu's house.

Xiaotao got off the carriage first and was about to move the wooden ladder.

Su Wan jumped out of the carriage and took Gu Baozhu down.

Gu Jingyun stood on the carriage shaft and looked towards the entrance of the long alley. He couldn't see his eldest brother's carriage. His heart felt cold. Could it be that his eldest brother was also angry?

He looked at Su Wan with a grimace.

Su Wan didn't seem to notice his disappointment, and opened her hand to Gu Jingyun: "Hurry up."

Gu Jingyun blushed and said timidly: "I'll get down by myself." He slipped to the other side and climbed out of the car.

Su Wan laughed: "He's not that big, but he has a lot of thoughts."

Gu Jingyun turned red and ran into the house.

Gu Baozhu quickly chased after Gu Jingyun.

"Miss, my uncle has just returned to the capital and may be busy with other things." Xiao Tao picked up the baggage and said a few words to Gu Huaizhi. I don't know what came to mind, I bit my lip and couldn't help but rub Su Wan's bad luck: "My uncle will become an official in the future, and today's situation is just the beginning. Many successful and famous men will have two beautiful concubines."

"If I am asked to serve the same husband with other women, it would be better for me to live alone." Su Wan glanced at the entrance of the alley, frowned, and walked to the main courtyard.

She had thought about this question before, but she didn't know if Gu Huaizhi would be willing to stay with her alone for the rest of his life.

If Gu Huaizhi cannot guarantee it, Su Wan can make an agreement with him. He later had another woman, and he confessed to her in time so that the two of them could get together easily.

After all, no one can predict what will happen next.

The important thing is to live in the moment.

Xiao Tao didn't dare to say anything and silently followed Su Wan back to the backyard.

Su Wan pointed to the rooms in the south, the one in the middle, and said, "This is vacant, there are some furniture inside, you live here."

"Okay, I'll go and arrange it first." Xiao Tao went to her side room.

Su Wan went to the main room, opened the door, and the light behind her filled the room.

Gu Huaizhi was sitting upright in a rosewood chair.

Su Wan raised her eyebrows.

Gu Huaizhi stood up, poured a glass of water for Su Wan, and said softly, "I'll take a shortcut and come in through the back door."

"Are you afraid that I won't let you in?"

"..."

Gu Huaizhi put the teacup on the table, took a few steps towards Su Wan, and said in a cool and mellow voice, "Wanwan, even if you are convicted, you should be given a chance to appeal."

"You are not guilty." It's just that she couldn't control her emotions and was hypocritical. She said, "I didn't stop you from coming in."

Gu Huaizhi saw that her face was calm and she didn't look angry, so he didn't feel relieved.

"You sleep next door tonight, and Xiaotao will clean it up for you later." Su Wan took a sip of tea, walked to the desk and sat down leisurely, and wrote a letter to Cao Wanqing.

Today, no matter whether she would tell Cao Wanqing or not, Cao Suxue would think that she had told her. In this case, she had nothing to hide. She might as well find something for Cao Suxue to do, so that she would not be idle and focus on stealing the girl.

"Okay." Gu Huaizhi agreed readily.
