Chapter 217: Deliberate (1st Update)

Duanhua read it right, in the private room upstairs, he was indeed sitting around.

In addition to Zhou Gu, there is also Su Xingze.

Su Rong knew that Su Xing had left the house early in the morning, and asked Zhou Gu to go to the bookstore, and when she and Feng Ling left the house slowly, he had already been out of the house for more than half an hour.

Su Xing originally wanted to be estranged from Zhou Gu, after all, after Su Rong divorced, he didn't want to have more involvement with Zhou Gu, if he got too close to Zhou Gu, it was inevitable that the two would be more involved, but that day Su Rong came back after the third shift and told him that he would accompany Zhou Gu more recently, he could only agree, and naturally he couldn't be estranged anymore.

So, last night, he sent someone to the Protector's Mansion to ask Zhou Gu, if he was free today, accompany him to the bookstore to pick up books, Zhou Gu was naturally free, and he responded. Therefore, early in the morning, the two went to the street at the agreed time, never thinking that the bookstore they were going to was closed for some reason.

Because I came early, I came in when people just opened the door, even if I didn't book in advance, there was a place.

Zhou Gu sat in the lobby and liked to be lively, but now he was in a bad mood and liked to be clean, so he chose a private room.

Ordinary restaurants and teahouses are generally sought-after private rooms, but on the day when Zhao Lao'er told the story, the lobby is the most sought-after place, and everyone wants to be closer to Zhao Lao'er and hear clearly.

After the two of them came in, the curtain was kept drawn and the door was closed, so they didn't know that Duanhua had also set a position in Yipinxiang today, and called Su Rong together.

When they heard that Zhao Lao'er was talking about the county lord Zhenmin today, the two of them glanced at each other and frowned in unison.

Zhou Gu lowered his face and instructed to the side, "Midnight, you go to the shopkeeper to interrogate, why are you talking about the county lord Zhenmin today?" Who told you to say this? If the shopkeeper doesn't confess, you will go to block Zhao Fei, if he doesn't say anything, you will send him to King Ruian for arraignment in order to implicate Princess Qingping's assassination."

Zhao Fei is the son of Zhao Lao'er, and he is also the largest tea merchant in Beijing, and the owner of this Pinxiang Tea House.

Midnight should be, immediately went.

The two stopped talking, and quietly listened to Zhao Lao'er downstairs talking about the county lord Zhenmin, and the guests in the hall occasionally whispered, and looked around the tip of his ears, and suddenly heard someone mention his name halfway, he opened the curtain and looked down, just at a glance, he saw that the special seat closest to Zhao Lao'er sat Duanhua, Su Rong and others, he was stunned for a moment, that is, this stunned work, so that Duanhua found him sharp-eyed.

After he lowered the curtain, he pursed his lips and said to Su Xingze, "Su Rong is also there."

Su Xing was also stunned, surprised, "Seventh Sister didn't say yesterday that she was going to come to listen to a book today."

If he knew that she was coming, he would definitely not come with Zhou Gu to have a taste of incense.

Zhou Gu lowered his eyes and whispered, "Brother Su, since you came to Beijing to take the exam, you have been quite alienated from me, without a trace, but now you take the initiative to ask me and get close to me, is it because Su Rong asked you to accompany me?"

Su Xing was silent, Zhou Gu was so smart that he was speechless.

Zhou consulted him, "Do you think I can let go of Su Rong?"

Su Xing looked at him, "Yes! After all, you haven't known each other for long."

Zhou Gu tugged at the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh, and said softly, "I don't know who to blame, I should have blamed my grandfather, he forced me to go to Jiangning County to congratulate my fiancée and give a gift, and I was not happy to go. Maybe it's also the night of the blame, he said that the new travelogue wrote that Jiangning County is very good, you can take the opportunity to go out of Beijing to play, I haven't been out of the door so far, as soon as I heard it, I came to the interest, and I happily went. Maybe I should blame myself, obviously when I left Jiangning County, I asked Su Rong, she said she was not in a hurry, although I was upset, but I left without asking. Maybe he even blames Xie Lin, he obviously knew that on the day I left, Su Rongxing might have something happened, but when he saw me, he deliberately concealed it and didn't tell me, so I didn't know anything like a fool, and I was very angry that she suddenly divorced me."

Su Xing listened to him mention a few people in a row, but he didn't say a word to blame Su Rong, and asked in a low voice, "Don't you blame Seventh Sister?"

Zhou Gu shook his head, "What do you blame her for? Who wants to be killed unless they have to? My grandfather is right, whether it is the Protector Mansion or me, for Nanchu, I can't reach out and help

If you don't get her, unless you keep her in Daliang all the time, but stay in Daliang, and now the Protectorate Mansion, can you completely protect her?"

He sneered, "Impossible, Your Majesty."

Su Xing was completely silent.

Su Rong is right, Zhou Gu knows everything in his heart, he understands everything, he really doesn't need to be persuaded by others, he just needs to talk to people, and he is the right person, what he can't say to others, in front of him, he can say it.

"Knock knock" Two knocks on the door, Zhou Gu raised his head, Su Xing turned to look, if he came back in the middle of the night, there was no need to knock on the door, he thought it was a young man who came to deliver tea, so he got up, walked over and opened the door, and when he saw it, it was Duanhua standing at the door, Su Xing asked suspiciously, "County Lord?"

Duanhua said directly, "I'm looking for Zhou Gu."

Su Xing saw that she was alone, hesitated for a moment, and turned sideways.

Zhou Gu heard it clearly inside, if it was in the past, he would have blocked Duanhua out of the door or immediately turned over the window and left when he saw her coming, but now he watched Duanhua come in expressionlessly, but he thought in his heart, she is very good, who would have thought that not long ago, he was crazy at him and kept shouting at Su Rong to kill him, but in a short time, after seeing Su Rong, he became a person with her? In the past, if someone told him that Duanhua would be able to make friends with Su Rong in the future, he would have scoffed.

Duanhua didn't expect to see Zhou Gu so smoothly this time, and besides, he didn't blackface her and didn't hide from her, she was still a little uncomfortable for a while, until she got closer and saw that Zhou Gu was still sitting there and didn't move, she found a bit of realism.

She stared at Zhou Gu and found that he was still so good-looking, so she sat down, held her chin, looked at him, and thought to herself, she must take advantage of the fact that he didn't drive her away from her today, read enough books, and show back all the things she hadn't seen enough over the years.

Su Xing knew how much Zhou Gu hated Duanhua before, and now he was expressionless when he saw people, so he asked out loud, "Does the county master drink tea?"

Duanhua shook his head, "Don't drink."

Su Xing asked again, "Does the county lord eat pastries?"

"No."

Su Xing saw that Duanhua had a handful of melon seeds in his hand, and suggested, "Then the county lord eats melon seeds?"

"Oh, why do you talk so much?" Duanhua was dissatisfied, "Don't talk, I just want to see him."

Su Xing shut up silently, in fact, he didn't want to say much, but the two of them were expressionless, and the other stared at the other, if he didn't say something, he always felt that the atmosphere was too stiff.

No one in the private room spoke anymore, and it fell silent all of a sudden.

Zhou Gu didn't hide or dodge, Duanhua looked at him, if he was annoyed in the past, he was not annoyed now, the whole person was very numb from the face to the heart, let her look at it casually.

Duanhua looked at Zhou Gu for a moment before pursing his lips and commenting, "It's boring."

Zhou Gu didn't hide from her anymore, let her look casually, but she couldn't be interested. People are so strange, they like a person, they like to drill the horns of the bull, they go crazy, they can ignore it, they can not even want their lives, but suddenly one day, a person came by her side, she said, "There are so many men in the world, even if the one she marries in the future is not the best-looking, what does it matter, just be suitable." , That indifferent attitude made Duanhua seem to break some stubborn things all at once, like a firmly locked chain, which collapsed all of a sudden, and found that this seemed to be quite right.

Duanhua is in this state of mind now, and I found that she didn't have the kind of care that she had to take care of, but she still liked it, and she just wouldn't go crazy for him anymore.

After she finished commenting, seeing that Zhou Gu was still expressionless, she didn't leave, and began to pinch the pastries on the table to eat, a piece of pastry in her stomach, she suddenly said, "Hey, Zhou Gu, you have divorced Su Rong now, I still like you, why don't you try to like me?"

Zhou Gu refused without hesitation, "I don't like it, I don't want to try."

Duanhua was dissatisfied, "What's wrong with me? I'm just a little bit bad-tempered, but if you like me, I definitely won't lose my temper with you, I used to lose my temper with you, and it was because you didn't like me, you avoided me, and I didn't have a good face when you saw me, so I was angry."

Zhou Gu was still expressionless, "I don't like it

I don't like it, you have a good temper or a bad temper, it has nothing to do with me."

Duanhua choked, and almost dropped the teacup angrily, but her temper is not so irritable now, and she was imperceptibly affected by Su Rong, who would rather be angry with others than angry with herself, so she snorted coldly angrily, and deliberately said, "What's the use of you liking Su Rong? She doesn't like you and doesn't want to marry you. You don't know yet, do you? She likes to return to the snow at night, she is the second son of the Nanchu Night Minister's Mansion, and she specially warned me not to rob her."

She muttered, "Nanchu is so far away, the ghost will rob her." She said, let me rob you as I please."

Zhou Gu's face darkened in an instant.
