Chapter 174: Turning the Eye

Gu Xinian's expression was very indifferent, his eyes were unusually calm, but there was an inexplicable chill.

Shen Qiuyu's heart sank.

I haven't seen him for four years, and this once familiar man seems to have changed a lot. The attitude is cold and unfathomable, and no matter how much she says, she can't say a word......

There was a suffocating silence in the side hall. Then, an unexpected voice rang out.

"Big brother," Gu Xiyu said suddenly, "I'll go out with Cousin Lan." He stood up as he spoke.

Ye Qinglan was stunned at first, and then quickly came to her senses. Gu Xiyu wants to avoid this and give Gu Xinian and Shen Qiuyu a chance to talk alone! Although Gu Xiyu hated Shen Qiuyu, she felt sorry for her brother after all. thought that Gu Xinian at this time must have wanted to be alone with Shen Qiuyu.

Silly girl, don't you see that your eldest brother doesn't want to deal with his old lover at all?

Ye Qinglan muttered secretly in her heart, but she stood up very cooperatively. It's really embarrassing that you can't watch such a wonderful show!

Gu Xinian was also rarely stunned, and when he saw Gu Xiyu and Ye Qinglan walking out together, he got up without thinking and wanted to chase out.

"Cousin Xi," Shen Qiuyu's voice was resentful, as if sighing softly: "Don't we even have the affection to say a few words?" ”

This voice is still so pleasant, exactly the same as he remembers. But it can no longer stir up the ripples in his heart, but instead arouses the hatred and anger that have been suppressed and hidden in his heart for a long time.

Gu Xinian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Shen Qiuyu coldly.

It was the first time since he was born again that he looked at her closely. She is still so delicate, beautiful and elegant, and her posture is so moving, like a white lotus plant. The delicate and flawless face and the pitiful expression will make all men soften.

That's the face. Fascinated so many men, including himself.

Gu Xinian tugged at the corners of his lips, and his eyes were full of sarcastic sneers: "I don't know, what else do the two of us have in love." If I'm not mistaken, you're already the Prince's woman! ”

Shen Qiuyu bit her lip gently, her watery eyes were full of grievances: "I...... I can't help it...... At that time, you were busy preparing to participate in the scientific expedition, and the government hid from you to prepare for family affairs. The old lady forced me to marry the crown prince, an orphan girl under the fence. What can be done......" he said, lowering his head slightly, tears slowly sliding down the corners of his eyes.

Gu Xinian looked coldly at her performance. I suddenly began to rejoice. If he hadn't experienced this qiē before, he was only afraid that he would be coaxed into believing it at this moment, just like in his previous life.

Now, knowing that he was a qiē, he just looked at her indifferently and cried. The words that came out of his mouth were extremely cold: "Is everything you say true?" Is it really your grandmother who forced you to marry the crown prince? Are you reluctant at all yourself? ”

Shen Qiuyu's long eyelashes moved, and he had a pitiful expression: "Cousin Xi, there has always been only one person in my heart. As he spoke, he tilted his face slightly and looked at him pitifully.

She knew him all too well, and knew what kind of expression was enough to impress him.

Back then, she inadvertently got into trouble. scared Gu Xiyu into the pool. Seeing Gu Xiyu struggling in the water, she was frightened and wanted to call for help. But the dark thoughts that flashed in her mind made her change her mind and fled in a panic. Later, when she heard that Gu Xiyu was rescued, she was scared and desperate.

If Gu Xiyu tells the truth. Her life is over. Neither the Sun family nor Mrs. Zheng would allow her to live in the mansion, let alone let her marry Gu Xinian. So. She cried in front of Gu Xinian, and finally his heart softened when he cried, and promised to go to Gu Xiyu. Later, Gu Xiyu really didn't say anything. She was able to continue to stay in the Dingguo Mansion safely.

From that day on, she knew that a woman's beauty and tears were the world's greatest weapons. When she was only thirteen years old, she was able to fascinate Gu Xinian, not to mention that she is now more mature and charming?

Therefore, she looked at him quietly with the same eyes as back then, convinced that he would be moved.

Sure enough, his expression became a little subtle, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything, just looked at her with that deep and unfathomable look. It's just that there was no pity in that gaze, only sarcastic mockery and cold laughter.

Shen Qiuyu's expression was a little stiff. What is wrong? Why was Gu Xinian's reaction completely different from what she imagined?

Gu Xinian looked at her coldly, and after a while, he slowly opened his mouth: "Shen Qiuyu, you have been lying to me." ”

Shen Qiuyu's heart skipped a few beats, and reflexively opened his mouth to justify: "I didn't lie to you, I only had ......you in my heart from beginning to end."

"You see that I am too proud, and it is impossible for me to confront the prince and ask him why he insisted on marrying you that day." Gu Xinian's sharp eyes stared at Shen Qiuyu tightly.

After hearing this, Shen Qiuyu's expression was really a little unnatural, but he forced himself to defend calmly: "Cousin Xi, I don't know what you're talking about. ”

Gu Xinian tugged at the corners of his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes: "Do you really want me to make it so clear?" Shen Qiuyu, you are greedy for vanity, and even the position of the granddaughter-in-law of the head of the Dingguo Mansion can't satisfy your appetite. What you want is to stand by the side of the most honorable man. The prince does have a good impression of you, but he cares about brotherhood and will not have much to do with you. It was you who took the initiative to seduce him, and then maneuvered between me and him. It's ridiculous I always thought you were forced to marry him, but in fact, this is the result you want! ”

Shen Qiuyu's complexion finally changed. How could he possibly know about this qiē......

"Do you think that I have been celibate and not married for your sake?" Gu Xinian's perceptive eyes seemed to be able to see the deepest part of her heart: "Actually, there is some truth in your thoughts. After seeing a woman like you, I don't want to be involved with any woman again in my life. ”

Shen Qiuyu was already in chaos, and looked at Gu Xinian with a cold face.

This qiē is completely different from what she imagined. It's rare to have a chance to meet and be alone, shouldn't he have a heartfelt relationship with her? Why did it become the way it is? How the hell did he learn about this secret?

Gu Xinian looked at Shen Qiuyu, who was no longer able to maintain elegance and calmness, and felt a strange joy in his heart.

In order to maintain a delicate balance with the crown prince, even if he hates the woman in front of him, he can't touch a single hair of her for the time being. However, one day, he will personally end her and avenge the revenge of his previous life. He has never been a magnanimous person, and he will not be soft on those who have deceived and betrayed him.

For now, it's better to advance some interest first.

Gu Xinian looked at Shen Qiuyu coldly, and his tone was full of mockery: "I don't know if Concubine Shen has any advice?" ”

Shen Qiuyu has always been a smart woman, and in order to stabilize her identity and status, she does not hesitate to use everyone. There is naturally a reason why I seized this opportunity to be alone with myself today.

If you remember correctly, in this year, Mo specially accepted two beautiful and enchanting concubines for the prince. Although it didn't pose much of a threat to Shen Qiuyu, the most important thing was that one of them was pregnant. This made Shen Qiuyu, who had never come out, feel the crisis.

The prince is twenty years old, but he has only two daughters and no sons. If this concubine fights for belly and gives birth to a baby boy, the son will be expensive by the mother in the future, and it will be just around the corner. She couldn't tolerate that happening right under her nose.

If it was in the prince's mansion, she would have more ways to deal with this concubine. But Mo sent this concubine to a secret place to raise a fetus. No matter how powerful Shen Qiuyu is, she is an inner house woman after all. The subordinates who were bought with silver money were limited to the prince's mansion. Out of the Prince's Mansion, she was at a loss.

At this time in his previous life, he and her would secretly meet every once in a while. She cried with tears in her eyes that she had been wronged in the prince's mansion, and after he asked the reason, he quietly sent someone to find the whereabouts of the little concubine. Then he gave a colorless and tasteless poison to let the little concubine return to heaven and get rid of the trouble in her heart.

In this life, Shen Qiuyu probably wants to repeat his old skills. It's a pity that she is destined to be disappointed. Not only will he not help her, but he will also send his secret guard to protect the concubine until she gives birth to a child safely. It is best to give birth to a baby boy in one fell swoop, Shen Qiuyu's future life in the prince's mansion is only afraid that it will not be as beautiful as before......

Although Shen Qiuyu didn't know that the man in front of her had already known all her secrets, what else could she say when it came to this point?

Shen Qiuyu's mind was in turmoil, and he barely spit out a few words: "No." ”

Gu Xinian smiled faintly: "Since I don't have anything to say, please forgive me for not having time to accompany me." As he spoke, he brushed his sleeves and left. The former lover finally officially turned against him today.

At this moment, his heart passed through an almost cruel pleasure.

Shen Qiuyu watched the familiar slender figure drift away, and suddenly felt an inexplicable confusion and fear in her heart. This feeling made her even more panicked than when she got married.

Does he love her anymore? Did he just walk out of her life?

Shen Qiuyu only felt that it was difficult to breathe, as if an invisible big hand was tightly holding her neck, making her unable to breathe......

She sat alone in the side hall, surrounded by a suffocating silence.

I don't know how long it took, a familiar figure came in.

Seeing the unbearable appearance of a wolf with tears in the corners of her eyes, the visitor was stunned at first, and then frowned: "Yu'er, what's wrong with you?" ”

The voice was familiar and warm, but it was no longer the gentle whisper of the affectionate teenager she remembered.

Shen Qiuyu blinked, came back to his senses, and naturally squeezed out a pitiful smile: "It's nothing." It's just that I feel very uncomfortable at the thought that my mother doesn't like me......" As he spoke, two tears slipped from the corners of his eyes.

The prince sighed lovingly, took her into his arms, and whispered a few words of comfort.

Shen Qiuyu fell into the prince's arms and sobbed softly.
