The three of them stopped, Gu Liwu turned to look at Cheng Yuan, who was still smiling on his face, and said straight to the point: "Miss Cheng San, I have told you many times, you don't have to think about me, it's useless." ”

Cheng Yuan put her hands behind her back, and her body shook slightly, so that people couldn't see that she was sincere: "You said it, but it's my business to hear it or not." ”

Gu Li's worried expression was not half joking: "What do you want to do?" ”

"I want to ...... Get you. Cheng Yuan smiled even more on her face, without the slightest twist of her daughter's family.

On the contrary, Bai Yi behind Gu Liwu was dumbfounded, this person was too violent.

"I already have a sweetheart."

Gu Liwu said.

His eyes were deep and his face was angular, and even the darkness of the night did not diminish the seriousness in his expression.

His expression was serious and serious, and his tone sounded calm, but with the courage that people did not dare to refuse and question.

Cheng Yuan stared at him stunned, the smile on his face froze, and then said casually: "I don't care, you ...... anyway"

"But I care." Gu Liwu didn't give her a chance, and said seriously: "My sweetheart also cares." ”

Bai Yi was even more dumbfounded, keenly aware that this place was not suitable for a long time, so he silently retreated to the side.

Cheng Yuan didn't want to listen to Gu Liwu anymore, and squeezed out a smile, "It's not early, I'll go back first, General Gu, you should rest early, we'll see you tomorrow." ”

Cheng Yuan was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Gu Li.

"I think it's better to make some things clear." Gu Liwu looked at Cheng Yuan's stopped back and said, "Since Miss Cheng San doesn't understand it very well, then I'll be more straightforward." ”

He took two steps forward and walked around to Cheng Yuan, with a cold expression: "Miss Cheng San, I have never belonged to Lianyuan County, let alone you. ”

Cheng Yuan looked up at him with some puzzlement in his eyes.

"If you think you can control me with these tricks, then you and Hou Ye have miscalculated."

"What do you mean?" Cheng Kite asked, "Do you suspect that my care for you these days is my father's instructions?" ”

"Isn't it?" Gu Liwu's tone was cold, and his eyes did not have the slightest warmth, "My matter with Cheng Anhou has nothing to do with you." ”

"I don't care if you know what Cheng Anhou did or not, or do you know everything, and you just want to use me to clear the obstacles for your Cheng family?"

"Gu Liwu!" Cheng Kite's eyes were full of disbelief, he actually thought of her like this?

"Gu Li's worries, I, Cheng Yuan, have always been frank in doing things."

"I originally thought that you were just cold-faced, as long as I was willing to work hard, sooner or later your heart would be hot, but now it seems that you are really disappointing!"

I don't know if I was angry, or if I felt wronged, Cheng Yuan slowly wet her eyes.

"I admit that I like you, but you have no wife and children, and no marriage contract, is it wrong for me to pursue you on my own?"

"But you think so much about me?"

Cheng Yuan took a step forward, approached Gu Liwu, and said word by word: "Gu Liwu, you are not worthy of my liking." ”

She turned away in a dashing manner, her back straight, her red skirt fluttering in the wind, and she looked particularly arrogant in the dark night.

Bai Yi looked at everything that happened in a daze, swallowed his saliva with palpitations, and stepped forward to admire: "Childe, you really don't know the slightest bit of pity for the jade." ”

Gu Liwu withdrew his gaze from Cheng Yuan's back and slowly fell on Bai Yi's face.

Without waiting for Bai Yi to escape, Gu Li settled the account after worrying about the autumn and said: "For a while, I will say that I am half-hearted, and for a while, I will say that I don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, next time there will be this kind of thing to be handled by you, I think you are quite like a fish in water." ”

"Don't don't, don't, Childe, I was wrong." Bai Yi hurriedly waved his hand to refuse, racking his brains and quibbling: "I mean that you really don't have half a fake public and private interest, you are the most public and private person." ”

Gu Li stood with his hands in his hands, "Miss Cheng San is Cheng Anhou's daughter, and getting acquainted with her is a business matter, where did she come from?" ”

"Or ......" Gu Liwu looked at Bai Yi in front of him, and pretended to joke: "You kid think that Miss Cheng San's matter can be regarded as your private matter?" If so......"

Gu Liwu looked at Bai Yi's expression changing when he was standing in place, turned to the side and said, "It seems that Ah Li can pay more attention to the marriage of Twilight Spring." ”

"......" Bai Yi wanted to cry without tears, "Don't, Childe, I really know it's wrong." ”

Half a month later, Cheng Yuan really didn't look for Gu Liwu again, even on weekdays, Gu Liwu was invited to Cheng Anhou's Mansion to discuss matters, and when the two met occasionally, Cheng Yuan also left as if nothing happened.

And Gu Liwu was really busy during this time, and while watching out for Cheng Anhou, he investigated the old case of Gu Mansion.

Gu Mansion, who was beheaded more than ten years ago......

Bai Yi looked at Gu Liwu, who had a somewhat tired face, and couldn't help but ask: "Childe, if you want to investigate the case of the Gu Mansion back then, you can leave it to me to investigate, there is really no need to do it yourself." ”

Gu Liwu, who was looking through the files of the Lianyuan County Military Department, did not respond, and Bai Yi was very worried when he saw his son-in-law working day and night during this time:

"Childe, now Cheng Anhou seems to be friendly, but in fact, he is always wary of us, at such a critical moment, you must not take a wrong half a step."

Childe looked at Gu Liwu, who was silent, and then looked at the pile of unhandled official business on the table, he couldn't help it, and directly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to block the file that Gu Liwu was reading.

In response to the doubts that Gu Li raised his head, Bai Yi was wronged first:

"I know that Childe has the ability and doesn't need my help, but when did you not take me with you before? Ever since you had a confrontation with that unknown person a few days ago, you have been investigating the Gu Mansion's old case. ”

"Of course, I'm not against your investigation, it's just that this kind of thing can be left to me to do, you just have to deal with Cheng Anhou, you don't have to work so hard now."

Bai Yiyi poured out his dissatisfaction in his heart, Gu Liwu looked at him and smiled helplessly: "You have been unhappy because of this in the past few days?" ”

"Yes." Bai Yi muttered, retracting his hand on the file, completely angry.

The corners of Gu Li's mouth were lightly raised, but he looked helpless, sighed and put down the file in his hand.

He raised his eyes to look at Bai Yi who was standing in front of the table, and then asked, "Do you know why the Gu Mansion was destroyed back then?" ”

Bai Yi was slightly stunned, "It is rumored that it was General Gu's family who betrayed the country and betrayed the country, and it ended up being beheaded all over the house. ”

Gu Liwu smiled lightly, "Because of this, the Gu Mansion case involves a wide range of things, you are not allowed to get involved, I need to handle it personally." ”

I see.

Bai Yi understood that his son-in-law was for his good, and his heart instantly turned cloudy, his hands were propped on the table, and he asked with a smile: "But Childe, as you know, I am your follower, if you are accidentally discovered in your own investigation, I will not be able to get out." ”

"......" Gu Li looked at Bai Yi thoughtfully, "Otherwise, don't follow me?" It's still too late to go. ”

"No, no, no, I'm joking, joking."

Bai Yi's eyes fell on the file on the table, withdrew Fang Cai's joking look, and said seriously: "But Childe, are you really sure that the person who fought with you that day was the old department of the Gu Mansion?" ”

A few days ago, Gu Liwei met the man in black on the way back to his home, and when he fought with him, he suspected the identity of the man in black.

"Eight or nine is not far from ten." Gu Li said slowly.

He remembered what the three black-clothed men he met on the street corner on Chinese New Year's Eve said, Gu Li frowned slightly, and had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

There was a knock at the door.

After Gu Liwu and Bai Yi glanced at each other, Bai Yi turned around and opened the door.

"What?" Bai Yi looked at the soldiers at the door and asked in a cold voice.

In the name of protecting the safety of Gu Liwu and others, Cheng Anhou arranged more than 20 people in this mansion.

Bai Yi was already dissatisfied with this, to put it nicely, he was a guard, and to put it bluntly, wasn't it surveillance?

There are so many pairs of eyes in the house all day long, which makes it very inconvenient for the son to even investigate things.

The entire Lianyuan County knew that there was a General Gu who had come from Kyoto to make trouble for them, so these soldiers didn't think much of them were used to worrying about them.

"Third Miss, please ask General Gu to go out." The soldier said directly.

"Miss Cheng San?" Bai Yi glanced out and wondered, "What is she looking for my son-in-law to do?" ”

The soldier glanced at Bai Yi and said unceremoniously: "Why do you need to ask more about what the third lady does?" ”

"I'm ......" Bai Yi rolled up his sleeves, ready to dry at any time.

"Bai Yi, you go out and have a look." Gu Liwu stopped the angry Bai Yi in time.

"Yes, Childe." Bai Yi immediately responded, glared at the soldier viciously, and as soon as he took a step under his feet, he heard Cheng Kite's voice sound:

"How can it take so long to get a word out? Eh...... I remember your name is Bai Yi, right? ”

Cheng Yuan saw Bai Yi standing at the door at a glance, and stepped forward quickly: "Aren't you General Gu's subordinate?" Since you're here, General Gu ......"

After that, Cheng Yuan was about to go to the house, but was stopped by Bai Yi stretching out his hand: "My son-in-law's meaning has been clearly stated last time, please Miss Cheng San to respect herself." ”

"Presumptuous!"

The soldiers on the side scolded, but Cheng Yuan raised his hand to stop him: "General Gu is a distinguished guest in the county, so don't be rude." ”

Cheng Yuan looked at Bai Yi and asked with a grin, "Can you tell me carefully why I don't have self-respect?" ”

"You ......"

When Bai Yi was about to say that she was unreasonable, Gu Liwu was already standing at the door.

"Miss Cheng San has a noble status, and she will definitely not break into the mansion of a foreign man at will, but now standing here may she have something important?"

Cheng Yuan nodded silently, slowly looked around Gu Liwei a few times, shook his head while looking, and finally curled his mouth and sighed.

Bai Yi saw that his son-in-law was actually being looked at like this, and stepped forward to separate Cheng Yuan and Gu Liwu, "Miss Cheng San has something important?" ”

Cheng Yuan looked at Bai Yi in front of him, took a step back in disgust, his eyes fell on Gu Liwu again, nodded and said, "Naturally, there is something important." ”

"My priority is—"

Cheng Yuan pushed away Bai Yi who was blocking in front of him, suddenly took a step forward, approached Gu Liwu, and opened his lips lightly:

"Congratulations General Gu, Miss Ben has taken a fancy to you again."
