Chapter Forty-Seven: Unconscious Misconception and Empty Melancholy

"Who?"

Gu Wanyan turned over on the couch, and heard a knock outside the door, so she slowly sat up and asked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There was no reply from outside the door, only two more knocks on the door. Gu Wanyan was helpless, so she had to say, "Come in." After saying that, she looked down and sorted out her clothes.

Gu Mo silently pushed the door in and walked in step by step. At the moment when his gaze and Gu Wanyan's gaze met, the world between the two of them seemed to stand still for a moment.

Gu Wanyan was stunned. She didn't expect that it would be Gu Mo who would come at this time, and her face showed irrepressible surprise and a trace of deliberate joy.

After a while, she smiled slightly and said, "You're back." ”

Gu Mo nodded silently, then raised his steps and walked to Gu Wanyan and sat down.

The distance between the two of them suddenly shortened a lot, and Gu Wanyan knew that she looked sick and lifeless, and she was embarrassed for a while.

Gu Mo lazily raised his eyes and looked at her, smiling: "What are you nervous about." ”

Gu Wanyan couldn't help blushing slightly when she heard this, and pretended to cover it up meaninglessly: "No, how can there be." ”

Gu Mo could see through the careful thoughts in her heart at a glance. He glanced at Gu Wanyan faintly, and his voice seemed to be much softer: "We are husband and wife, and there is no need to mind anything between husband and wife." Gu Wanyan immediately froze unconsciously. Facing the rare gushing tenderness in Gu Mo's eyes, she was a little overwhelmed by what to do.

Gu Mo's seemingly casual words...... Is it affirming their relationship?

Thinking of this, Gu Wanyan really wanted to pat her head violently.

Gu Mo had already affirmed their relationship a long time ago. He has changed so much for her, and he has not shy away from expressing his heart - it has always been her, and it was she who was stunned in place and did not react, so that Gu Mo couldn't help but retreat to her previous position step by step with her silent coldness.

"What do you think?" Gu Mo asked when he saw Gu Wanyan caught up in his thoughts.

Gu Wanyan smiled bitterly and shook her head gently.

Then the two of them stopped talking, and just when Gu Wanyan thought that their conversation had stopped there, Gu Mo's gaze swept to Gu Wanyan's injury: "Does it still hurt?"

Gu Wanyan was stunned for a moment, and after reacting to Gu Mo, he asked about the injury on his chest and replied, "It doesn't hurt anymore." ”

Gu Mo said: "I feel very guilty......

Before he finished speaking, Gu Wanyan interrupted him with an order, and said in a slightly helpless tone: "Hey...... Stop, I'm afraid you'll feel guilty about it. Gu Mo, you don't need to feel guilty. ”

Gu Mo pursed his lips and was silent.

The sentence "I am willing to block the knife for you" Gu Wanyan still didn't say it. Maybe in the face of love, she is a person who is not good at words.

She looked at Gu Mo, who was silent, and a shallow smile gradually appeared in her eyes-Gu Mo, when did you start to enter my heart?

"That's right. While thinking about it, she suddenly remembered something and said, "You are ...... Luoshui."

Gu Mo didn't seem to want to mention this topic, so he gently brushed his eyes away: "Everything is fine in Luoshui." ”

Gu Wanyan was in a fog, Gu Mo had encountered a tricky matter in Luoshuiming, but why was he reluctant to share it with her?

"Everything's alright? You're in trouble over there. ”

Gu Mo was a little surprised, and squinted his eyes slightly at her: "You know, how do you know?"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Wanyan felt a little lost in her heart. Did Gu Mo want to hide it from himself? Her voice lowered a little: "I heard what the people in the house said. ”

Gu Mo secretly screamed in his heart to be damned.

Obviously, he only asked Liao Daming to report the matter to the master, why did Gu Wanyan still know about it in Yunjitang?

Gu Mo knew that Gu Wanyan would cultivate in Yunji Hall, and in order to make her feel at ease, he had planned to prevent her from knowing about the troubles she had encountered when she was in Luoshui. So he could have asked Liao Daming to go to Gu Wanyan to take the brocade bag token given to him by the Venerable King, so as to take a shortcut to find the Venerable King for help, but Gu Mo was afraid that Gu Wanyan would be worried about him if he knew about this matter and affect his treatment, so he didn't let Liao Daming do it-so everything in Luoshui was done with great painstaking efforts.

Butβ€”thinking about it, he looked at Gu Wanyan's smiling face. It's good that she's fine, it's better than anything else.

Gu Mo deliberately brushed this matter aside, turned his face slightly and said casually: "It's a bit troublesome, but it's all solved." -- The trip went smoothly, nothing serious. ”

It turned out that the facts were no better than the rumors she had heard-Gu Mo said it so easily, Gu Wanyan naturally believed it.

But he didn't know that the simple sentence "nothing serious" hit the question she had been thinking about for days.

She wanted to ask, Gu Mo, what is my position in your heart? Why can you still wave your sleeves away when my life and death are uncertain?

Although thinking like this is contrary to the entire position of the Gu Mansion, after all, Luo Shui and his party are related to the interests of the Gu family - but Gu Wanyan clearly knows that he is aggrieved and dazed about this, and he feels aggrieved and dazed about the fact that he can't see Gu Mo when he wakes up and learns that Gu Mo is not in Dongcheng.

Gu Mo has always acted rationally, of course she knows. But......

"It's not a big deal...... So if you don't have Luoshui this time, will the matter be resolved?"

Gu Mo only wanted to let Gu Wanyan not worry about him, he didn't want Gu Wanyan to know how he survived the few days in Luoshui, so he pretended to be relaxed and said, "Yes." ”

Gu Wanyan's face darkened suddenly, and she didn't know what Gu Mo really thought in her heart.

Sometimes, she really just wanted to know what Gu Mo was thinking in her heart.

This kind of detachment and looming is not the kind of emotion she wants that can be firmly held in her hands.

I can't guess it, I can't understand it, it's such a contradictory and uncomfortable feeling.

Gu Wanyan took a deep breath in her heart, and there were still a series of questions about Gu Mo in her stomach, but she somehow didn't ask them, instead she said such a sentence in a cold tone: "I'm tired, you go back." After saying that, she hung her head to herself, and didn't even look at him.

Gu Mo was stunned, he didn't know why her emotions suddenly became wrong. But Gu Wanyan said that she was tired, and Gu Mo naturally thought that letting her rest well was the most important thing. He didn't want to affect the recovery of her wounds.

Gu Mo paused and then got up, put his hands behind his back, looked down at her and said, "Then you..... Rest well, I'll come back tomorrow to see you. ”

Gu Wanyan still hung her head and was silent.

Gu Mo looked at Gu Wanyan a little inexplicably, and sensed that something was wrong with her. However, in this atmosphere, he did not say more, so he had to take a step and leave.

Only Gu Wanyan was left in the room. She reluctantly raised her head to look straight ahead, her pupils unfocused and dilated.

"Ahh

This sigh is for himself.

=====================

Gu Mo walked out of the door of Yunji Hall, and then slowly took out the hairpin he wanted to give to Gu Wanyan just now but didn't have time to give her.

He carefully held this hairpin in his hand, and rubbed his fingers lightly - this was a wooden hairpin, although it was not as valuable as an ordinary golden jade and gemstone hairpin, but this was carved by Gu Mo himself little by little. The hairpin has delicate and fine carved patterns, which looks dignified and elegant.

If you look closely, you will find that at the bottom of the hairpin, there are four small words - Yan Rumeiyu.

After watching it for a long time, Gu Mo carefully put away the hairpin with an expressionless face. Well, let's give it to her next time.

On the first day of the conflict between Luoshui and the local government, Gu Mo, as the person in charge of Gu's jewelry, was brutally detained by the Luoshui Yamen for "obstructing official business".

Gu Mo knew that those black-hearted officials wanted to wait for the limelight of this matter to pass before returning him to freedom. To put it bluntly, these bureaucrats with ghosts are bitches and want to set up archways and strive to protect themselves.

But of course Gu Mo couldn't sit still.

He didn't know Gu Wanyan's situation at all, he didn't even know if she was out of danger and woke up. Gu Mo gritted his teeth and ordered that he must solve this matter as quickly as possible, and then rush back to Dongcheng.

So, he silently endured the next few days that made him live the most embarrassing and painful days.

Since he is only in detention, there is still a chance to get in touch with the outside world on a daily basis.

Helpless, Gu Mo, who has always been high and arrogant, didn't expect that he would also have a day of deliberately currying favor with some insignificant servants and jailers.

Gu Mo had no freedom at that time, and in order to be able to have more contact with his subordinates outside, he forced himself to lower his posture every day, smirk, and bribe and beg the people who cared for him to let his subordinates come to visit as many as possible.

Gu Mo couldn't ask Loulan Zhen for help directly, he never asked for help, he could only carefully and secretly ask his subordinates to ask for help from friends or business partners who he had some friendships in Luoshui.

He speculated that the government must have done a lot of unsightly things, others were under house arrest in the yamen, and they had difficulty moving, so they cooperated with people outside, and finally spent several days to collect some evidence of corruption and bribery in the Luoshui government, and then sued it to a higher level of governor in one fell swoop.

Fortunately, the evidence is sufficient, all the Luoshui official mansions have been seized, and the matter of Luoshui Store has been resolved. After Gu Mo was under house arrest for a few days, he finally stepped out of the small space on that side.

In just a few days, he felt tormented - as if he had walked through purgatory on earth.

What made him uncomfortable was not the hardships of the conditions, Gu Mo had always been a person who could endure hardships.

Rather, he had never let down his dignity to anyone, and he had never had a pretentious smile on his face.

For the first time, Gu Mo understood how realistic the world they lived in was.

Withdrawing from his thoughts, Gu Mo got into the Gu Mansion carriage waiting for him at the door of Yunji Hall.

He sat alone in the carriage and took a deep breath - no matter what, it was over.

Now, he's going to go back to the house and get his own.

The reason why Gu Mo would leave Gu Wanyan when she was seriously injured and go to Luoshui was because the old man promised him an attractive condition.

The Luoshui store can be said to be one of the most important branches in the country, and it is absolutely impossible to make a little mistake. The old man understood Gu Mo's worries about Gu Wanyan, but he also understood that there was no more suitable candidate than Gu Mo to deal with Luoshui's troubles.

So, the old man did not force Gu Mo, but promised him to return to Dongcheng after going to Luoshui, and transferred Gu Ran's current position to him.

Gu Ran's power has always been the eldest of the four brothers of their Gu family, and it is also because of the tradition passed down from generation to generation - the eldest son is in charge of the accounts. Therefore, if the master's promise is true, then he has broken the traditional rules of Gu's jewelry.

As soon as the old man's words came out, Gu Mo was moved without hesitation.

One, he can finally stay in Dongcheng safely, and he no longer has to run around.

Again, if he holds real power in Gu's Jewelry, then he will have enough capital to give Gu Wanyan a safe protection and truly ensure that she is carefree.

After weighing and thinking, Gu Mo gritted his teeth and set off to Luoshui - to make long-term plans.
