Chapter 168: Rejected

Su Wan's words were a test, trying to judge his attitude towards her from his reaction.

He agreed so readily, she was not happy.

But the words had already been said, Su Wan was holding back a breath of anger.

When they had dinner together, both of them behaved normally.

After dinner, Su Wan returned to her room.

Xiao Tao came in with a visiting card: "Miss, this is from the Princess's Mansion."

A red visiting card sprinkled with gold powder, with Xie Wuya's name written on it.

Su Wan raised her eyebrows: "Xie Wuya?"

"Do you want to see him?" Xiao Tao asked carefully.

Su Wan had no intersection with Xie Wuya, and she called the Princess Aunt because she had an engagement with the Crown Prince. Now that she had no relationship with the royal family, Xie Wuya naturally had nothing else to ask her for.

Suddenly, Su Wan remembered the endgame that had been solved.

Did Xie Wuya know it was her?

Su Wan frowned, raised her hand and pressed her swollen temple: "See you."

"Do you want to rest early?" Xiao Tao stood behind Su Wan and massaged her forehead.

Su Wan closed her eyes and enjoyed it, whispering: "I won't sleep yet, I'll read a medical book later." Speaking of this, Su Wan ordered: "I'll give you two lists later, you go out to buy tomorrow."

She wants to develop in the capital, and plans to open a pharmacy in this mansion. When she is unemployed at home, it is convenient to study new medicines in the pharmacy.

"Okay. Is your hand strength okay?"

"You can have your hand strength. Have you learned massage?"

Xiao Tao's technique is good. Su Wan is very relaxed, her swollen head is relieved, and she is comfortable and drowsy.

"I learned from a doctor before that the old lady has old cold legs. She suffers a lot in the rainy and winter days. She can feel better if she is pressed when soaking her feet." Xiao Tao sighed in her heart. After she followed the eldest lady, she could no longer serve the old lady.

Su Wan thought about getting some medicine bags for the old lady to soak her feet.

"Okay, the headache is gone."

Su Wan took Xiao Tao's hand away and went to the desk.

Xiao Tao stood aside to grind ink.

Su Wan wrote down the things that needed to be purchased, wrote a prescription, dried the ink, and gave it to Xiao Tao: "You will prepare five sets of medicine for this prescription tomorrow and send it to grandma. Boil it for foot soaking."

Xiao Tao accepted it happily: "The old lady will be happy that you are so thoughtful."

Su Wan waved his hand, signaling Xiao Tao to leave, and took out a medical book to read it, looking at the insights on difficult and complicated diseases.

This reading was late at night.

Su Wan yawned, closed the medical book, sleepily carried his clothes to the clean room to take a bath, and fell on the bed, rolled up the thin quilt and fell asleep.

Su Wan was not used to having one less person around him. He was extremely sleepy, but he couldn't fall asleep. Unlike the last time he left the provincial examination, this time he had something on his mind.

Random thoughts, is Gu Huaizhi tired of her?

Too annoying.

Su Wan hugged the pillow and closed her eyes to try to fall asleep.

Steady footsteps came from the door, she opened her eyes and focused on the movement outside.

After a while, the door was gently pushed open and closed again.

The footsteps came from far away.

Su Wan heard Gu Huaizhi from the footsteps, her tense back relaxed, and she closed her eyes immediately.

The footsteps stopped by the bed, Su Wan controlled her breathing and calmed down.

The mattress collapsed slightly, the man lay down beside her, lifted the quilt and covered her.

Su Wan: "..."

The man moved, facing her sideways, and his low and hoarse voice sounded in her ears: "It's just past midnight, it's a new day, can I go back to sleep?"

"..."

"You just said you slept next door yesterday." Gu Huaizhi suddenly reached out, hugged her in his arms, and held her hand: "The quilt next door has not been dried, it is damp, and it is uncomfortable to sleep."

"..."

"Madam." Gu Huaizhi lowered his head slightly and kissed her on her smooth forehead: "In the future, I will avoid women like her more, okay?"

Su Wan couldn't help but freeze when he hugged her, and her thoughts followed.

In her memory, only that night when he was asleep, he hugged her unconsciously.

This was the first time he hugged her in a sober state.

That Madam, a kiss, Su Wan softened.

"You are so annoying, sleep if you want, don't make a fuss."

Su Wan struggled.

Gu Huaizhi laughed a few times and hugged her tighter.

"You sleep, I won't disturb you."

Su Wan's face was burning, she curled up in his arms, closed her eyes and went to sleep.

Gu Huaizhi breathed a sigh of relief. She proposed to sleep in separate rooms, and he was nervous, afraid that she would draw a line with him. She was angry, and Gu Huaizhi was worried that speaking would add fuel to the fire, so he obeyed her.

I don't know how long it took, and a mutter came in the silent night.

"I'm not angry with you." I just can't help but vent my anger!

Gu Huaizhi's eyebrows softened, and he said "hmm".

Su Wan's confused mind was in a mess, and she wanted to ask him what he meant now? Was he treating her as his wife, or did he have her in his heart. But she thought it was too hypocritical. Before she could figure it out, whether to ask or not, she fell asleep.

——

Early the next morning, Gu Huaizhi got up and dressed neatly.

Xiao Tao heard the noise and brought in hot water.

"Son-in-law, please wash your face." Xiao Tao put the bath bean water on the wooden rack and looked at the bed. Su Wan was still sleeping soundly. She was about to go over and wake her up.

Gu Huaizhi stopped her and said, "Let her sleep a little longer."

Xiao Tao said "Oh" and went to the kitchen to bring breakfast.

Su Wan sniffed and was awakened by the smell of food. She lifted the quilt and sat up.

Gu Huaizhi came in from the outer room, his eyes were gentle: "Are you awake?" He took out his clothes and put them next to the pillow: "The teacher was not in the mansion yesterday, and I need to visit him today. If you have nothing to do this morning, do you want to go with me?"

"Are you going to have dinner at the Jiang Mansion? Mr. Xie will come to visit you in the afternoon. If you leave the Jiang Mansion in the afternoon, I won't go." Su Wan shook out her clothes and put them on slowly.

"The teacher is going to the Imperial College in the afternoon, and he is only free in the morning." Gu Huaizhi walked in front of her and tied her belt for her: "Let's go together."

Su Wan was stunned for a moment, looked at the belt, pulled it awkwardly, and said "um" indifferently: "Then go." Rinse your mouth, wash your face, sit at the table and finish your breakfast.

The two went to the front hall together. Gu Baozhu was wearing a beautiful little skirt and Gu Jingyun was wearing a handsome little brocade robe. They had been waiting there for a long time. When they saw Gu Huaizhi and Su Wan, they ran over excitedly and shouted clearly: "Brother, sister-in-law!"

"Have you been waiting for a long time? Let's go out now." Su Wan held the hands of the two little guys and got on the carriage to Jiang Mansion. She suddenly remembered something: "Did you go to Lord Jiang's birthday?"

"He had something urgent to do and left Xihe Town earlier."

"You haven't seen him yet?" Su Wan tilted her head and asked in confusion: "Will he let you in?"

Gu Huaizhi smiled like a spring breeze: "With you here, he won't turn me away."

Su Wan: "???"

So she is a tool? !

The carriage stopped.

Su Wan looked at Gu Huaizhi with a sharp look: "Wait, I'll settle accounts with you when I get back."

She got off the carriage first.

The door of Jiang Mansion opened, and the housekeeper seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

He smiled at Su Wan, Gu Huaizhi and the two little guys, and said respectfully: "Young Master, the old man only saw Madam Gu, the second young master, and the third young lady."
