Chapter Thirty-Five: This Situation Is Like Thunder on a Sunny Day
Since the conflict with Gu Mo that night, Gu Wanyan changed the lock of the room. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info When she goes out, she locks the door tightly, and the important things in her room are also locked dead.
The note that Chu Lanyi wrote to her ran to Gu Mo inexplicably, if it wasn't for Gu Mo turning over her things herself, then it could only be someone else turning over her things and then handing the note to Gu Mo.
As for who had sneaked into her room and rummaged through her things, Gu Wanyan had no way of knowing. Therefore, it is indispensable to guard against others.
This time, she went to the old temple on the outskirts of the city to see Chu Lanyi, and did not call Xu Dong.
But...... Xu Dong didn't want to trouble her, nor could he rest assured that she and Chu Lanyi were alone.
When Gu Wanyan went to the stable in the dark and led a horse to the back door, Gu Mo's figure suddenly appeared in her sight. When she saw Gu Mo's face clearly by the moonlight, she was suddenly stunned in place, and the hand holding the reins of the horse couldn't help but squeeze it vigorously.
Gu Mo glanced at her lightly, and his words were without tone: "I came from the store, I'll accompany you." β
Gu Wanyan was confused, and said stupidly: "Huh?"
Gu Mo walked over, took the reins of the horse in her hand, and said coldly, "Xu Dong told me what he did with you last time. β
Gu Wanyan was taken aback when she heard this, Xu Dong told him?!How much did Xu Dong tell him??Did Gu Mo already know everything?
She frowned at herself, complaining about Xu Dong in her heart.
Gu Mo walked side by side with her, and the two walked out the back door together.
Gu Wanyan opened and closed her mouth, wanting to speak and stopping.
Gu Mo stepped onto the horse and whispered as if he had seen through her thoughts: "I know you have a lot of doubts, I will talk about everything after I have accompanied you to the outskirts of the city." β
After speaking, he stretched out his hand to Gu Wanyan.
Gu Wanyan's thoughts were said by Gu Mo, she bit her lip, and after hesitating for a moment, she still handed her hand to him. When he touched his cold fingertips, Gu Mo exerted force, and Gu Wanyan was dragged onto the horse and sat in front of Gu Mo. Even at such a close distance, she felt that Gu Mo did not have a trace of warmth on his body.
She hugged the small package on her chest, and her heart was in a trance, and for the first time she had such a consciousness - this person, he is my husband.
Gu Mo rode his horse and galloped through the empty streets and alleys to the outskirts of the city, and the two were speechless all the way.
Sure enough, Chu Lanyi had already taken a step ahead, and he leaned against the pillar at the entrance of the temple and sat on the steps with his arms crossed.
Gu Wanyan jumped off the horse with a brisk step, and Chu Lanyi got up and walked over leisurely.
He looked at Gu Mo, raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Yo, this time the flower messenger has been changed." β
Gu Mo pursed his brows.
Chu Lanyi stopped, still maintaining a safe distance, and there was a little more vigilance in his tone: "Gu Gongzi, it should only be that he will come to accompany his beloved wife, right?
Chu Lanyi's light skills are very good, and there is almost no one in the rivers and lakes who can compare with him. Therefore, if there is any emergency, under normal circumstances, Chu Lanyi can escape. Therefore, if he found out that there was anything wrong with Gu Mo at this moment, he would leave immediately.
Gu Mo also jumped down from the horse and shook the dust off his body: "No." β
Gu Wanyan didn't say much nonsense, so she walked over and gave the things in her hand to Chu Lanyi: "The things you want are all here." β
Chu Lanyi took it, opened the package and looked at it, then nodded: "Sister Wanyan's efficiency is really speechless." β
Gu Mo couldn't help but frown, and there was an expression on his face that he was going to kill Chu Lanyi.
Gu Wanyan coughed unnaturally, and then said, "I hope you can keep your promise." β
Chu Lanyi smiled: "Don't worry about this, if my plan can be realized, you will have most of the credit - don't forget, I hate people who cross the river and tear down bridges, and I will definitely not be that kind of person." β
Gu Wanyan looked back at Gu Mo, and then lowered her voice: "How can I find you?" I wait for you to come to me every time, it's too passive." β
Chu Lanyi put away the things and said, "If you want to accomplish great things, you can't be in a hurryβwhat's the hurry? Just wait for me to come to you." β
Gu Wanyan looked at Chu Lanyi helplessly. She really didn't know who was behind Cheng Yong? What was Cheng Yong's plan? What was the use of Chu Lanyi for these things she gave Chu Lanyi?
There were so many questions that she wanted to know the answers almost immediately.
But in the next moment, Chu Lanyi had already disappeared in front of her eyes.
Gu Wanyan sighed and turned to Gu Mo.
=====================
When they returned home, they were speechless all the way. Gu Mo went to the stable and tied the horse, and then went back to their room awkwardly with Gu Wanyan one after the other.
Gu Wanyan lit the candle and asked Gu Mo, "Tonight...... Do you sleep here?"
Gu Mo's eyebrows moved inexplicably, and a trace of weirdness flowed, but he quickly returned to normal.
Gu Mo didn't answer her question, but asked coldly, "Gu Wanyan, do you think I am your husband?"
Gu Wanyan was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't say anything.
He went on to say, "Even if I treat you with all my heart, you don't really have half of my place in your heart, do you?"
When she heard Gu Mo say this, she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart. How to say it - from Gu Mo treating her coldly at the beginning, to gradually becoming familiar with her, and then to Gu Mo's sudden confession. She saw the changes in Gu Mo's whole person little by little, and she knew all the strength that Gu Mo had used for her...... But she didn't know what kind of emotion she had for Gu Mo. She only knew that when Gu Mo kissed her, she wouldn't want to escape, Gu Mo hugged her, she wouldn't want to hide, and she would be unhappy when she saw Gu Mo laughing with other women.
But is this love? She asked herself, do you love Gu Mo?
Gu Wanyan really didn't know.
"Gu Mo ......" Gu Wanyan lowered her eyes, and her tone was helpless, "I'm sorry, I'm hiding so many things from you." β
Gu Mo looked at her coldly.
She said word by word: "I can't explain to you what I've been through at all-Gu Mo, you know, I can only tell you that I was almost dead, and my life was almost picked up." I can't afford to make a second mistake, I have to be careful to take it one step at a time, and I can't make any mistakes. At the moment, this secret about Chu Lanyi is a very important thing for me now, I don't want to be killed again, I want to live well...... So ......"
Although Gu Mo didn't understand the first half of what she said, he still raised his eyebrows and said, "So for people you don't believe, you won't deliver your sincerity?"
That's what it means, right?" Gu Wanyan thought. But she couldn't bear to nod her head, nodding, how hurt Gu Mo would be.
Facing Gu Wanyan's silence, Gu Mo was stunned, then his eyes swept towards the window, and he blinked and suddenly said lightly: "Gu Wanyan, you don't love me, you don't believe me, I don't force it." β
=======================
The next morning, Lord Xiao visited the Gu Mansion in person.
Gu Wanyan was busy in the backyard, and as soon as she heard that there was a guest, she immediately put down the things in her hand and went out.
When Gu Wanyan was imprisoned, Lord Xiao helped a lot, and she was also grateful to Lord Xiao in her heart, and when she saw him, she smiled and said, "I don't know that Lord Xiao came to the house, and I missed the welcome, so please forgive Lord Xiao." β
Lord Xiao smiled brightly, arched his hand and said: "The second wife doesn't know, the second son really helped the official a lot, today, I specially came to thank you." β
Gu Wanyan's smile froze, and there was a little more doubt in her words: "Oh?
At this time, Gu Mo walked from the corridor to the front hall, he stopped and nodded politely to Lord Xiao.
Lord Xiao was a little more excited when he saw Gu Mo, and he said brightly: "Second son, thanks to the information you provided last night, Chu Lanyi has been arrested by us on the outskirts of the city!"
Gu Wanyan's face turned white in an instant when she heard this-Chu Lanyi ...... Arrested? Stunned, her eyes widened with a thick question, and she suddenly looked at Gu Mo, only to see Gu Mo's face was light and light, the corners of his mouth were flat, and there was no wave on his face.
Lord Xiao didn't notice that something was wrong with Gu Wanyan, and politely thanked Gu Mo a few words, and asked Gu Mo to have a drink another day, and then left in high spirits.
Gu Wanyan sat down on the chair stupidly.
Gu Mo glanced at her indifferently and was silent.
After a while, she raised her head angrily and asked Gu Mo: "You use me?!"
Gu Mo disagreed: "What am I using you for?"
She clenched her fists, her eyes full of disappointment: "You use me to ask for merit from the king?"
Gu Mo looked left and right, his face was expressionless, and he said coldly: "Go back to the room and say." β
The two walked one after the other, and met the second lady halfway.
The second lady smiled kindly, but Gu Wanyan couldn't laugh at all, and only pulled the corners of her mouth ugly.
Walking to the room, Gu Wanyan's anger became heavier and heavier, and she slammed the door shut, as if she was about to explode in the next moment.
She questioned Gu Mo: "You used me to tell Lord Xiao about Chu Lanyi's situation on the outskirts of the city, and then Chu Lanyi was arrested, aren't you? You are not worried about my safety at all, but have other plans, right?"
Gu Mo didn't look at her, took a sip of the herbal tea in the cup, and said quietly: "Whatever you say." β
She took a deep breath of anger: "You know all about me, right? Why did I have a connection with Chu Lanyi, you obviously know, right?"
Gu was silent, which was counted as a default.
Gu Mo heard Xu Dong say that Gu Wanyan was almost ...... by Chu Lanyi I was shocked and couldn't believe it. Although Gu Wanyan was not in the house when the accident happened, but such a big thing, even after he came back, even if the matter had been separated for so long, no one in the mansion told him.
She walked up to Gu Mo in two or three steps and looked into his eyes: "Even if you want to assist Lord Xiao in catching Chu Lanyi, why don't you at least discuss it with me in advance?"
Gu Mo sneered: "Discuss, if I discuss with you, will you still watch Chu Lanyi be arrested?"
Gu Wanyan was in a trance, and sat down on the chair all of a sudden, her eyes were out of focus, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Gu Mo continued: "Gu Wanyan, do you know that you are very selfish like this? In the years when Chu Lanyi made waves, how many girls were brutally violated, and their lives were bleak from then on? For your own benefit, you let Chu Lanyi act recklessly on the rivers and lakes, have you ever thought about the consequences?"
Gu Wanyan was stunned by Gu Mo.
She slowly raised her head and looked at Gu Mo - she really didn't think about it that much, she really didn't, she didn't expect Chu Lanyi to harm the world again.
But...... Perhaps, Gu Mo is right, she is too selfish.
"Do you know that King Zun and the ministers of the court have been sleepless for several nights recently for this case - King Zun is working for the safety of Loulan Kingdom, since I know that Chu Lanyi is close at hand, how can I sit idly by?"
Gu Wanyan felt a trace of guilt in her heart, she felt that what Gu Mo said was reasonable. She lowered her eyes, nodded stunnedly, and said apologetically, "Yes, I know, I'm sorry, it's all my fault." β
However, Chu Lanyi's cooperation with her ended here, and all the clues and signs of that incident came to an abrupt end. Gu Wanyan felt that all her efforts and adventures were all blank.
Gu Mo silently looked at Gu Wanyan's distracted appearance, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"I can't explain to you what I've been through at all-Gu Mo, you know, I can only tell you that I was almost dead, and my life was almost picked up. β
The words that Gu Wanyan said to him last night jumped into his mind inexplicably.
He secretly thought in his heart, what did Gu Wanyan mean by this, how could she become so cautious and vigilant step by step.
Thinking about it, Gu Wanyan raised her head helplessly and sighed heavily. Then she cheered up and smiled bitterly at Gu Mo reluctantly: "There are still many things to be busy with, I'll go out first." β
Then Gu Mo himself was left.
He folded his arms and leaned lightly on the back of the chair, and couldn't help frowning at the door that was closed tightly by Gu Wanyan.
Anyway, he actually felt very sorry for her.
He didn't know what Gu Wanyan meant when he said that he had died once, he couldn't guess what had happened that made her tremble all day long, and made her so eager to live in peace.
It's just that Gu Mo said to himself in his heart, those things that he couldn't tell her no matter what.
Gu Wanyan, everything you are worried about, I will soon figure it out. In any case, I will be by your side and protect you. Gu Wanyan, you won't be hurt by anyone, you will live well, always.
