Chapter 345: Confession from the Iceberg (Part 2)
Mrs. Cui's face was very ugly, and she coldly walked towards the outside of the house with the maidservant, Zheng Yuan followed quickly after a while, but she didn't open her mouth to stay, but she just whispered with red eyes: "Tomorrow I will go to Lizhuang to greet the eldest lady, if the lady has anything to want, or want to go out for a walk, just order someone to come here, and I will go over." ”
Mrs. Cui looked at Zheng Yuan's aggrieved appearance, and she was also a little reluctant in her heart, she never thought that Cui Lin would be so cold and ruthless to Zheng Yuan, Fang Cai's words were really hurtful, she sighed, and said softly: "When I ask and understand, I will definitely let him make good compensation with you." ”
It's just that she can see it clearly in her heart, but I'm afraid that her own Wulang really has no thoughts about Zheng Yuan, but in addition to Zheng Yuan, where is there anyone who matches Wulang, Zheng Yuan is already the most agreeable among the ladies of the family.
While thinking about it, she couldn't help but glance back at Cui Lin and Gu Mingzhu, who were walking behind, only a few steps away from each other, frowned again, and walked out with a blushing face.
If it was Cui Yi in front of her, she was afraid that she would have already forced him to go back with her, and she was not allowed to entangle with Gu Mingzhu again, but this was Cui Lin.
She remembers clearly that since he was a child, this son has been precocious, witty and decisive, far above ordinary people, but at the age of five, he has been favored by the elders of the clan and designated as the son of the clan, and he handed over the power of the clan to him at the age of ten, and he also took care of it very well, and did not live up to the expectations of the clan at all.
It's just that he is cold by nature, and he is tenacious and resolute, once he decides, no one can change it, not even her, a mother, and he knows that he can't force it, so he has to use gentle tactics.
Zheng Yuan also saw the two people, and her heart felt like she was being twisted by a knife, but Mrs. Cui didn't speak, she could only hold back her tears and walk behind Mrs. Cui.
Cui Lin didn't pay attention to the thoughts of the two women in front of him, his posture was straight, and his dusty white robe was as elegant as a cloud, but he deliberately slowed down his pace, just two steps in front of Gu Mingzhu, no more, no less, as if he had been paying attention to Gu Mingzhu's stride and walking with her.
"Today's matter is mine or not, the lord of the sect has been wronged." While walking, Cui Lin frowned slightly and spoke solemnly.
Gu Mingzhu didn't know what to say for a while, and felt that her heartbeat was a little chaotic, and she lowered her head with a complicated face.
"I should have explained to A-Niang earlier, she wouldn't be like this." Cui Lin said, but he turned his face and looked at Gu Mingzhu intently, "It's just that I haven't explained some things to the county lord yet, so it's delayed." ”
Gu Mingzhu noticed his focused gaze, and the face he was looking at slowly warmed up, and his expression became unnatural, looking at the rose stand on the side: "Lang Jun, please say something." ”
Cui Lin's cold face rarely showed a suspicious crimson, but his expression was still serious, he stopped his steps and looked at Gu Mingzhu: "I don't know what the county lord thinks of me?" ”
This, what is this word?
Gu Mingzhu was stunned for a while, stared at him with wide eyes, and quickly understood, the heat rushed from his neck to the top of his head, and his delicate face was red, like a budding rose, his eyes were full of waves, and he turned his face and his voice was so low that it was almost inaudible: "I don't understand what Lang Jun means." ”
Recklessly asked like this, how did the county lord of the family answer.
Xiao Yuan, who followed not far behind him, smashed his mouth, shook his little head, and looked old-fashioned, although his own Langjun was good at strategizing and scheming on weekdays, but this cold temperament was really ...... Awkward.
He thought about the words he read, those who were rushing to take the exam didn't talk like this when they met the little lady, they were obviously nice and moving, where was there such a straight talk.
He couldn't help but shake his head again, and said that he usually had to read more books, but Lang Jun never read them, so now it depends on what he wants to say.
Cui Lin didn't see Xiao Yuan's shaking head and tail, he just looked at Gu Mingzhu who was too ashamed to look at him.
"Before the county lord entered the palace, the queen of heaven had intended to marry the county lord to King Xian, but the sage planned to give the county lord to King Chen Liu, and the two were glued down before it was delayed, and then King Xian wanted to marry Princess Xichang, His Royal Highness King Chen Liuwang also changed his mind and asked the lady of the Cen family to be the princess, and the county lord stayed in the palace safely."
"However, the county lord has not yet come out of the cabinet, the status is noble, after all, it is difficult to be like this for a long time, although the Xian King, Chen Liuwang has already had a marriage, but there is also King Xian, there are other county kings in the clan, if there is a day when the saint and the queen of heaven have thoughts, to take the marriage of the county lord as the handle, give marriage to others, what about the county lord? Is there any other way to avoid it? ”
He rarely speaks on weekdays, but at this time, he didn't stop saying a word, and said it calmly without hurry, but he kept looking at Gu Mingzhu's eyes, refusing to move away at all, as if he wanted to see Gu Mingzhu's expression clearly and know her sincerity.
"If Lin is not mistaken, the county lord does not want to marry into the royal family, so he asked to enter the palace to accompany the princess, but I am afraid that it will not be delayed for a long time, and it will not be long before it will be mentioned again." His eyes were as bright as stars, and he stood there looking at Gu Mingzhu, "So I want to ask the county lord how he thinks of me?" ”
Gu Mingzhu didn't expect him to say so much, and when he said this sentence again, he blushed and didn't know how to answer.
Cui Lin was not in a hurry, he stood there and looked at Gu Mingzhu, his eyes were as gentle as water, waiting for her to speak.
After a long time, Gu Mingzhu regained some composure from the panic, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Lang Jun, how do you tell me to answer, you are ......?"
Cui Lin looked at the unconcealable shyness and joy in her cramped and evasive gaze, and chuckled: "If the county lord is willing, he is willing to do his best to protect the county lord, if the county lord is unwilling, if the county lord is unwilling, ......"
His tone suddenly changed from relaxed to solemn, and there was a faint sigh when he paused, so that Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but look up at him, if she didn't want to, what would he do? What happens if such a proud and outstanding person is rejected?
Cui Lin answered unhurriedly: "If the county lord is unwilling, then I will think about it." ”
Poof! Xiao Yuan, who was not far behind him, didn't hold back, laughed out loud, and even Abi, who had always been serious, couldn't help laughing, looked at Gu Mingzhu and Cui Lin, and hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief, holding back and not daring to make another sound.
Gu Mingzhu couldn't cry or laugh for a while, her heart was sweet and funny, she hurriedly turned her face away and stopped looking at him, and said softly: "I am serious on weekdays, but I didn't expect it to be like this." ”
Cui Lin didn't feel that he was any different, and his face was still indifferent: "I'll let the county lord go back to the house for a while, and wait for the county lord's reply." ”
He was not in a hurry to ask for his own answer, which made Gu Mingzhu secretly relieved, she really didn't know how to choose at this time, and she didn't know how to answer him, although she was clearly aware of the special affection in her heart these days, but she never had the courage and didn't want to think about it.
After all, this reincarnation has taught her how to struggle, how to fight, how to live hard, but she has never been so gentle.
What's more, there are still too many barriers between them, which are really insurmountable, and she doesn't have the courage to try.
