The weather is slowly getting hotter, and I always feel bored after sitting in the house for a long time.

"Sister Qingwan. ”

Su Qingwan retracted her gaze to the window, turned to look at the girl sitting next to her, and asked softly.

"What's the matter, Yun Xi. ”

The girl shook her head and handed over half of the apple she had peeled in her hand, "Sister Qingwan, you must really want to go outside." ”

Su Qingwan took the apple, smiled and didn't answer, just looked at her and asked, "Yun Xi, don't you have to go to class today?"

Gu Yunxi lowered her head and continued to peel apples, smiling indifferently, "No, the second brother will always help me ask for leave......"

Su Qingwan looked at her and frowned slightly.

She's only fifteen.

Su Qingwan raised her eyes and looked at her quietly, and Gu Yunxi was still silently peeling the apple. She hung her head, half of her face was hidden in the shadows, and Su Qingwan couldn't see her expression clearly.

Zhang's mother once said that the third miss is the most sensible young lady in the Gu family.

Because her biological mother, the second aunt, has always been unfavored, and the second aunt is too gentle and introverted, not frivolous, arguing with others, and is used to tolerating, so several other aunts have never taken her seriously.

Su Qingwan glanced at Gu Yunxi silently. So since she was a child, she has seen the warmth and coldness of people, and she has survived in the cracks, she must have lived a very hard life.

"How is your relationship with your second brother?"

Su Qingwan asked softly. Gu Yun took a moment to pause, and then answered quietly. "Second brother, he...... It's been great since I was a child. ”

Gu Yunxi silently continued the movements in his hands, remembering that the Gu family seemed to have always been proud of the second brother.

"But the second brother is away all the year round, and he rarely sees each other. Gu Yunxi reluctantly tugged at the corners of her mouth, with a little imperceptible regret in her voice.

"Since I was a child, I haven't seen my second brother a few times. ”

Su Qingwan leaned over and held down her hand that was peeling apples, picked up the apples in her hand and put them on the table next to her, and then gently held her hand.

"Yun Xi, can you do me a favor?"

Gu Yunxi was slightly surprised, but still nodded for a while, "Sister Qingwan, you can say it." ”

Su Qingwan lowered her body slightly, her voice cautious, "Yun Xi, you help me inquire about someone, but this matter ......" She looked at Gu Yunxi's eyes fixedly, and cautiously instructed.

"I can't let your second brother know. ”

******

The sound of leaves and insects chirping outside the window came to my ears from time to time, adding a bit of life to the large but silent room.

Gu Yuan has been surrounded by low air pressure recently, and Zhou Yu stood motionless at the door of the study, his face a little dignified.

There was a sudden thud in the study, and after a while, Gu Shaoting walked out of it with a cold face.

"Second master. Zhou Yong turned around and lowered his head.

"In three days, the old man is coming, you get ready. ”

"Yes. Zhou Yong immediately replied, looking paused and hesitantly asked, "Is the place where you live in Gu Yuan......?"

Gu Shaoting snorted coldly, "Do you think he will live here?" ”

Zhou Yong was silent, and Gu Shaoting waved his hand, "As before, it will be arranged in peace." ”

"Yes. Zhou Yong nodded.

Gu Shaoting raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, "Has Yun Xi been here today?"

"The third lady didn't come, I guess she will come tomorrow. Zhou Yong replied.

Gu Shaoting answered, turned around and walked downstairs. Halfway down the stairs, he came up with Chunsheng walking up with a set of tea sets, and Chunsheng immediately lowered his head when he saw him, "... Second master. ”

Gu Shaoting glanced at her hand before looking at her, "Do you know how to make tea?"

Chunsheng hurriedly shook his head and blurted out, "It's my young lady's ......" said and quickly glanced at him and repeated gently, "My young lady likes to drink tea." ”

Gu Shaoting smiled, reached out and picked up a small teacup to look at it carefully, and muttered in his mouth, "At a young age, how can I like things that are always different from others." ”

Chunsheng didn't know why, and looked up at him. Gu Shaoting put down the teacup, glanced at Chunsheng, and went downstairs sideways without saying anything.

Chunsheng couldn't think of anything, so he couldn't help pouting and walked to the room.

Su Qingwan was reading a book, and when she saw Chunsheng coming in with a tea set, she was interested, she carefully filtered the water twice before slowly brewing tea.

The fragrance of tea overflowed the entire room after a while, and Su Qingwan's heart was quiet without a trace of distractions, and slowly drank tea from the book. I don't know how long it took, the light gradually dimmed, Su Qingwan closed the book, raised his hand and pressed the slightly sour eyebrows, and called lightly.

"Spring ......"

"Chunsheng is out. ”

This voice is not unfamiliar.

Su Qingwan immediately opened his eyes, and then he saw the person sitting on the sofa not far away.

Su Qingwan stabilized his mind and spoke calmly.

"When did the second master come......?"

Gu Shaoting raised his chin lightly to indicate that the teapot was empty.

"She went to change the water, I just came. ”

Su Qingwan didn't speak again, and fell into deep thought.

He had been coming to her room every day for a while these days, even though he was busy with military affairs. This move gave her a sense of crisis in her heart.

And she suddenly remembered something recently.

Gu Erye.

Su Qingwan unconsciously wanted to sigh.

In his letter to her, the second brother mentioned that he was managing the Chamber of Commerce for his father, and that he had encountered some resistance during his tenure at the Chamber of Commerce.

Su Qingwan looked at Gu Shaoting and frowned, but he didn't know if the chief surnamed Gu was him.

If it was him, then he and the second brother would naturally know each other, but the tone in the second brother's letter was not very kind, I was afraid that they had some festivals, and even if this was the case, she would not be able to act rashly.

"What, there's something on my face?"

Gu Shaoting raised his eyebrows and asked her.

Su Qingwan came back to her senses and slowly shook her head, lowered her eyes and took a sip of warm tea, and when she raised her eyes again, her eyes were moist and bright.

"It's a cloud and a ......"

Gu Shaoting was inexplicable, "Yun Xi, what's wrong with her?"

Su Qingwan looked at him quietly.

"She's still young, so she should focus on her studies. ”

Gu Shaoting said softly, "She is very good at school. ”

Su Qingwan smiled, "So you know." ”

Gu Shaoting showed a rare trace of helplessness on his face.

"It seems that Yun Xi complained to you, my brother is incompetent?"

He seemed to be relaxed, and even had a slight smile on his face. Su Qingwan clutched the teacup in his hand.

"Yun Xi didn't complain anything to me, she has always admired you, you ......"

Chunsheng pushed the door in and interrupted Su Qingjuan's next words, Gu Shaoting glanced at Su Qingjuan quietly, and did not ask any more questions.

"Miss......" Chunsheng said weakly, as if sensing that the atmosphere was a little abnormal.

Su Qingwan smiled at her, "Why did it take so long to change the water?" ”

Chunsheng also smiled, beckoning to the door while laughing, signaling the people outside the door to come in, she smiled and turned her head to Su Qingwan and said. "It's the third lady here. ”

Su Qingwan was stunned for a moment, "Yun Xi is here?"

Gu Yunxi walked in slowly, and shouted at the person on the sofa in a restrained manner, "Second brother." ”

Gu Shaoting nodded, "You're here." Saying that, he got up and walked out the door, "It's not early today, I'll let Mama Zhang cook a few dishes you like later, and dinner will be eaten here." ”

Gu Yunxi nodded happily, "Yes." ”

After Gu Shaoting left, Chunsheng pulled Gu Yunxi to sit on the side of the bed, and asked in a hurry, "Miss Yunxi, how is it?"

Su Qingwan also looked at her nervously on the side. Gu Yunxi looked at Su Qingjuan, "Sister Qingjuan, the person you asked me to inquire about, I inquired." ”

Su Qingwan's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Gu Yunxi nodded vigorously, "Yes, you can't be wrong." Su Jinqiu, it's the name, it's just ......"

"Just what?"

Su Qingwan hurriedly asked.

Gu Yunxi was suddenly a little deflated.

"Sister Qingwan, Su Jinqiu went to study abroad a month ago, and I'm afraid she won't be able to come back in a short time. ”
