Chapter 106: Dispute
When Gu Jingxing heard this, he didn't speak, just stared at Gu Qinghuan for a while before saying, "Go back and let someone clean up." ”
Gu Qinghuan didn't ignore the remaining suspicion in Gu Jingxing's eyes, and her expression remained unchanged: "Got it." ”
At this time, Gu Yixian coughed lightly and said lightly: "Eat." ”
I was finally able to have a meal with my daughter, but what if there was a quarrel and we broke up unhappily?
Gu Yixian thought of the last time Yan Zhao came to the door, and he mistakenly thought that his daughter was interested in Yan Zhao and made his daughter angry.
You can't afford to do the same thing.
"Okay, don't talk about irrelevant things."
Gu He couldn't smell any strange smell on his body, but when her grandson was too sensitive, she changed the topic: "It's hard to get together and eat." ”
Such a scene may not necessarily occur during the New Year's Festival.
Gu He was very relieved and motioned for everyone to eat.
Naturally, others would not refute her face, and they moved their chopsticks one after another.
The dinner table is very quiet, and everyone concentrates on eating, but they don't feel embarrassed.
After the meal, it was a little dark outside.
Gu Qinghuan put down his chopsticks and said, "Grandmother, I'll go back first." ”
"Stay a little longer?"
Gu He was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, her granddaughter didn't want to see Gu Yixian and Gu Jingxing all these years, and now she is willing to eat at the same table, which is already a great progress, and she can't ask too much, so she said: "It's okay, you're tired outside today, go back and rest early." ”
"Hmm." Gu Qinghuan left.
"That son also ...... first" Gu Yixian did not forget about official business.
"Wait a minute."
Gu He also had something to say, "There is something to talk about." ”
Gu Yixian saw that his mother's face was serious, and he understood that it was not a trivial matter, so he said, "What's the matter?" ”
It's just that without waiting for Gu He to speak, Gu Jingxing suddenly stood up and said, "Grandmother, father, I still have some official business to do, so I'll go back first." ”
"Okay, there you go." Gu He's didn't force him to stay, just tell Gu Yixian in advance, and it's no problem for Gu Jingxing to find out later.
Seeing Gu Jingxing leave, Gu He Shi looked back at Yixian, and said in a deep voice: "In the past few years, you and me, for the sake of Qinghuan, you have tolerated some people, but now you don't have to endure it anymore......"
……
"Wait a minute."
Gu Qinghuan hadn't arrived at Xihuan Courtyard yet, he was stopped halfway, that familiar cold voice, no need to turn around to look, Gu Qinghuan also knew that it was his brother, Gu Jingxing.
"You go back first." Gu Qinghuan knew what Gu Jingxing was going to say, so he branched out to know the autumn and the moon.
After the two of them walked away, Gu Qinghuan turned around and saw Gu Jingxing approaching and standing two meters away from her.
"What's the matter?" Gu Qinghuan asked.
Gu Jingxing's eyes flashed, still maintaining his usual indifferent expression, and asked, "The smell on your body is not the musty smell of the basement." ”
His sense of smell is very sensitive, and the smell on Gu Qinghuan's body is too special, he can't ignore it if he wants to pretend to be stupid.
"So what?" Gu Qinghuan asked rhetorically.
Gu Jingxing furrowed his brows: "These days, I thought you were a little smarter, but now it seems ......"
After a pause, Gu Jingxing realized that he was almost speechless, and said words to reprimand Gu Qinghuan.
"Now it seems, what?" Gu Qinghuan stared at him.
Gu Jingxing's brows tightened even tighter, and he asked in a deep voice, "You have a bloody smell on your body, plus that special musty smell...... Did you go to a dungeon or something? What do you do in that kind of place? ”
Last time, when Gu Qinghuan had just returned from Guining Temple and had blood on his body, Gu Jingxing was very worried, and after knowing afterwards that Gu Qinghuan actually killed people with his own hands to protect himself, he was even more shocked.
If he could, he didn't want his sister, a delicate boudoir lady, to come into contact with these things.
Unexpectedly, how long has it been since Gu Qinghuan actually went to the dungeon, a place where prisoners are held?
Being stared at by Gu Jingxing with scrutinizing eyes, Gu Qinghuan did not flinch, but instead looked at Gu Jingxing, her eyes calm: "Do you think I have done anything bad?" ”
"Naturally not!"
Gu Jingxing seemed to have thought of something, and immediately denied Gu Qinghuan's suspicions, and answered the phone so quickly, and even with a hint of urgency, as if he was afraid of being slow, so Gu Qinghuan misunderstood something and was sad.
He said coldly, "I'm just worried that someone will take you badly." ”
"Not what you think." Gu Qinghuan lowered his eyes, "You can rest assured." ”
Gu Jingxing said: "People's hearts are unpredictable. ”
"So...... You don't believe me? Gu Qinghuan asked rhetorically, staring at Gu Jingxing again.
Gu Jingxing choked and said, "Why do you think so?" I'm just worried about you......"
"Is it a little too late to worry about me now?" Gu Qinghuan said lightly, "Why did you go earlier?" ”
Read between the lines.
Gu Jingxing understood what she was talking about, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, he was silent for a while, and his voice was not as cold as before: "Qinghuan, don't be so sharp...... Seven years ago, I explained to you why, if you don't do that, it will only damage your reputation even more......"
"So, let me bear the charges and swallow those grievances?"
Gu Qinghuan's tone sank: "Brother, if I do it all over again, I would rather be pointed at than be innocent for myself!" Tell the self-righteous Lord of the Yamen that I have never hurt that beggar! It was the beggar who slandered me! ”
"Qinghuan!"
Gu Jingxing stiffened his face and interrupted Gu Qinghuan's words: "You were only eight years old at the time, how could we let you be surrounded by the people in a place like Yamen, and show your face?" Taking you away immediately is the best choice! ”
"So, regardless of my feelings, you confessed to the crime for me?"
Gu Qinghuan's eyes showed disappointment: "I thought that after seven years, such a long time, you would have at least a few days to reflect on the mistakes you had made...... Now it seems that I expected too much from you. ”
After a pause, Gu Qinghuan smiled bitterly: "No, from the beginning, I shouldn't have had hope for you. ”
After that, Gu Qinghuan turned around and left.
Behind her, Gu Jingxing saw that she was leaving, and subconsciously took a step, his eyes flashing with pain and struggle.
By the time he came back to his senses, Gu Qinghuan had already disappeared from his sight.
Gu Jingxing's cold face showed a trace of confusion and self-blame, he looked at the direction where Gu Qinghuan was going, lost his mind for a long time, and muttered to himself: "I'm sorry......"
However, the timing was not right.
People are not there, they can't be heard.
Gu Jingxing's eyes were gloomy.
Eventually, he turned and walked in the opposite direction.
……
Xihuan Temple.
Gu Qinghuan stepped into the courtyard.
Zhiqiu Zhiyue was waiting for her, and immediately greeted her, and the two quietly looked at Gu Qinghuan's face, and when they saw that she looked as usual, they breathed a sigh of relief-
They also thought that the young lady and the eldest prince would quarrel when they were alone, but now looking at the young lady's expression, they are probably fine.
