Chapter 424: The Good Times Don't Last Long
Hurriedly returning to the Gu Mansion, Cheng Sujin looked as if he had just fled from the palace, and the whole person looked very flustered. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
For her, this visit she carefully designed not only gained nothing, but also slapped Princess Yuanxi in vain.
It's simply stealing chickens and rice, and the gains outweigh the losses.
And Cheng Sujin could also see that although Gao Heng did not question her like pointing at Princess Yuanxi, every time he came into contact with his eyes looking at him, he was always filled with a kind of indifferent hostility like ice, and he had obviously doubted himself for a long time.
In Gao Heng's opinion, her behavior today is probably not much different from "weasel giving New Year's greetings to chickens".
At this time, Cheng Sujin could only be glad that he was able to return home safely without alarming Gu Hanqing, otherwise if he knew that Cheng Jinzhi was almost poisoned and murdered, it would be difficult to guarantee that he would not have a bad heart.
"Alas, Miss, we missed the opportunity today, and His Royal Highness King Yan has noticed it, if you want to do it again in the future, I'm afraid there will be no chance. ”
Seeing that Cheng Sujin's eyebrows were always reflecting a faint look of disappointment and displeasure, the color screen of the personal maid she brought from her mother's house saw that there was no one around, and she couldn't help frowning and sighing.
"Forget it, just her dying appearance, I'm afraid she won't wake up again. But speaking of which, this Cheng Jinzhi is really hard-hitting, he is already a half-dead person, and he even scared me by the devil and saved his life. ”
Cheng Sujin sneered, and the unwilling color hidden in the depths of his eyes suddenly filled his eyes, and he tightened the lines of his lips.
"But the most annoying thing is that the arrogant princess of Chu State dares to beat you, I really don't know the height of the sky, and I don't look at whose territory I am on, I am destined to be a deep resentful woman who is not favored by her husband. ”
"A deep resentful woman who is not favored by her husband?"
Although the words of the color screen were only aimed at Princess Yuanxi, they inadvertently touched Cheng Sujin's heartstrings.
Even if she knew that she was not talking about herself, it was still difficult to persuade herself to ignore it like this.
I saw that her already cloudy eyes suddenly sank, and then her pupils tightened, and her eyes stared at the color screen faintly.
was so frightened that Caiping's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, while crying and pleading.
"The slave deserves to die, the slave and the maid don't have a heart, and I ask the young lady to forgive me. ”
"What are you doing so scared, I won't eat you, get up, be careful when you talk in the future. ”
Seeing Caiping's panicked and embarrassed state, Cheng Sujin's heart was slightly relieved, and then he pretended to be disapproving, raised his chin and raised his hand towards her.
"Hmph, of course I will settle this account with this woman, otherwise as soon as Cheng Jinzhi dies, she will have to be powerful in the palace. However, I once heard my father say that the reason why His Majesty treats Nanchu so politely now is just a delaying tactic, and when the time is ripe, His Majesty will definitely not give Nanchu good fruits to eat. This Princess Yuanxi couldn't be arrogant for long. ”
"I heard that you went to the Yanwang Mansion just now?"
However, just as Cheng Sujin slowly stretched his eyebrows and was in a better mood, Gu Han's indifferent, but somewhat questioning voice suddenly came from behind him.
Suddenly hearing Gu Hanqing's voice, Cheng Sujin couldn't help but tense up, and could only quickly restrain his expression, calm down the tumbling apprehension in his heart, and turned around to show a calm smile.
"Hanqing, are you back? I haven't seen you often in the past two days, and I miss you a little. ”
Cheng Sujin said and subconsciously glanced at the color screen behind him, and then walked to Gu Hanqing's side, smiling even more on his lips.
"You haven't answered my question yet. ”
Facing Cheng Sujin's slightly shy sweet smile, Gu Hanqing could only turn a blind eye, and the whole person was not as indifferent as when he saw her before.
Putting aside the issue of feelings and Cheng Jinzhi for the time being, in the past two eventful years, Cheng Sujin, as the hostess of the Gu family, has indeed helped him a lot in various family matters.
The care and concern for him is also meticulous.
"Yes, it's been a few days since Jin Zhi's accident, I heard that she is still unconscious, how can I say that she is also her eldest sister, it is not good to ignore it like this after all, it just so happens that my father and mother are also concerned about him, so I have to take time to take a look. ”
Cheng Sujin replied very naturally and fluently, his eyebrows were undisguised, and he didn't look like a person who had just done something wrong.
"Really? How's it going?"
Gu Hanqing bowed slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, he finally couldn't help but ask this sentence.
Even if he had met Gao Heng before, he didn't take the initiative to ask, not once.
Whether it was the inexplicable stubbornness in his heart, or the guilt of Cheng Jinzhi, Gu Hanqing just didn't want to know anything about Cheng Jinzhi's current situation through Gao Heng's mouth.
In his opinion, when Gao Heng mentioned Cheng Jinzhi, it always made him feel that Gao Heng was telling everything in the tone of a husband, which made Gu Hanqing very uncomfortable to hear.
In the face of Gu Hanqing's questioning, although Cheng Sujin was deeply angry in his heart, he showed emotion on the surface, and gently put his hand on his arm and said seriously.
"Hanqing, in fact, I know, you have always wanted to see her, rather than knowing the current situation of Jin Zhi, why don't you go yourself? ”
"You're really... Think so?"
Looking at Cheng Sujin's warm and sincere eyes, Gu Hanqing twisted the corners of his eyebrows in surprise, but he couldn't help but hope in his heart that Cheng Sujin's words were sincere.
"Of course it's true, in fact, as long as you feel happy, I'll be satisfied, even if you ...... in your heart"
Cheng Sujin pretended to be sad when he said this, turned his back and stopped talking, his eyes were already full of tears, and Gu Hanqing couldn't help but feel vivid.
"It's not too early, let's have dinner together. ”
Gu Han smiled lightly, walked to Cheng Sujin's side with a look of comfort, raised his hand and stroked her shoulder, which made Cheng Sujin's heart bloom, and his eyes were also full of heavy joy.
All the efforts she has made in the past two years have finally made her see a glimmer of hope.
However, just as she was immersed in happiness and smiling, she felt that the top of her head was like a thunderbolt exploding, and a sharp pain suddenly hit her.
The pain was unexpected, menacing, piercing like a knife, tearing at every nerve in her.
Cheng Sujin gritted his teeth, holding his forehead with one hand and grabbing Gu Hanqing's sleeve with the other, the whole person finally found it difficult to gain a foothold and fell towards his embrace.
