"Cut, I have a lot of money for your meal, but since you have already told Jingcheng, I won't continue to talk about you, you hurry up and stand on tiptoe to see, have you ever seen Jingcheng?"

Finally, it was the time when the Gongyuan opened the door, and all the doors were surrounded by water, Su Xiaomu was not particularly tall, and she couldn't see the people inside when she stood on tiptoe.

And the people standing around her kept squeezing her, if Su Xiaomu hadn't thought about Gu Jingcheng all in his heart at this time, he would really have to scold them.

"I'm watching, I'm watching!"

Zhou Lin was also squeezed to the point that his face was distorted, but he still tried to widen his eyes and didn't dare to blink.

After the Gongyuan opened, the students who took the exam poured out.

After these nine days, most of them were listless and tired.

Zhou Lin saw that they looked like they had been drained of their energy, and he was more and more worried about Gu Jingcheng in his heart, so he looked forward even harder, and finally saw Gu Jingcheng in the crowd.

So he immediately grabbed Su Xiaomu's sleeve, and raised his hand to call Gu Jingcheng: "Jingcheng, we are here!" ”

Su Xiaomu heard that Zhou Lin saw Gu Jingcheng, and beckoned happily: "We are here!" ”

However, she is not tall, and even if she beckons, she barely shows half of her arm.

As for Gu Jingcheng, the nine-day exam had exhausted him.

Although he had already won the imperial examination, and he had heard people who had taken the examination say that they would have a very difficult time during the imperial examination, he still did not expect this difficult method.

He staggered out step by step, originally thinking of finding a corner to stand and rest first, and then find out where Su Xiaomu would pick him up.

But he didn't expect that before he had walked a few steps, he heard someone calling him.

When I looked up, I was facing Zhou Lin's smiling bright face.

Busy buildings.

"I'm telling you that I'm finally relieved, I was almost squeezed to death at the gate of the Tribute Garden just now, did you say that everyone came together as a family to pick up people? How can people see so many things at a glance that all of them are heads? ”

Zhou Lin sat on the chair in the private room and began to gasp.

Su Xiaomu poured a cup of tea for him and Gu Jingcheng speechlessly, and originally wanted to complain about Zhou Lin first, but when Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Gu Jingcheng's dark green in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him.

"Why does your head look so bad? Is it because you haven't slept well in the past few days? ”

"It's not been very cold in the capital lately, presumably because you're lucky that the spring cold hasn't started yet, but you should also cover the thick quilt I prepared for you at night."

Su Xiaomu asked Gu Jingcheng with concern how his physical condition was?

Gu Jingcheng was still a little unwell, he hadn't rested enough in the past few days, and he was in a trance when he came out just now.

But now that he heard that Su Xiaomu was caring about him, he suddenly felt refreshed, and all his fatigue was gone.

He shook his head nonchalantly, and the expression on his face was much more relaxed: "I didn't feel cold when you used everything you prepared for me, but I just came out and didn't get used to the outside, let's eat first, don't you like to eat meat here?" ”

Gu Jingcheng personally gave Su Xiaomu cloth vegetables and told her not to worry about herself.

"Okay, then we'll eat together."

Su Xiaomu didn't believe what Gu Jingcheng said, but now he could only see a little tiredness on his face.

This week, Lin sat on the side, looking at their little husband and wife, you and I cared about each other, and not a single superfluous look was assigned to him.

Just sighed: "What I know is that your old man went to take a test, the two of you have been separated for nine days, and I don't know that you young husband and wife have never met, this intimacy, do you want me to open the door and go out, and leave this private room to the two of you?" ”

"I think you just can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, if one day your father finds you a daughter-in-law, I don't believe you have a bad relationship with her."

Gu Jingcheng scolded Zhou Lin, who was speechless and sneered.

After this meal was over, Zhou Lin didn't send them because he still had something to do, but he was very kind to leave the carriage, after all, Su Xiaomu was in a hurry to go out today, and he didn't have time to take the carriage.

After returning home, Gu Jingcheng was free of the burden of the imperial examination, and he was able to relax for the time being.

He went to the study to pack his things first, and accidentally glanced at the shop planning book on the table, so he picked it up curiously and looked at it.

Seeing what was written on it, Gu Jingcheng remembered that this shop was the same as the one that Su Xiaomu had opened when he first came to the capital, so he asked, "Are you going to reopen?" ”

"Hmm."

Su Xiaomu nodded.

The things were placed in the study, and she was not afraid that Gu Jingcheng would know about it.

"Things are a little complicated, I've had some trouble in the past few days of your exam, but fortunately, Mrs. Wuding Hou helped me, and now she has agreed to take a stake in my shop, with such a big backer, I don't have to worry about Liu Lu continuing to come to me."

Su Xiaomu took out the fruit wine she had made a few days ago, patted the mud and took the first sip.

The mellow liquor slid on the tip of his tongue, making Su Xiaomu stretch his brows happily, and his limbs relaxed.

"I'm going to drink it too."

Gu Jingcheng remembered in his heart that he had agreed with Su Xiaomu to get drunk together, so he put down the planning book in his hand and drank with her.

"What happened to you?" He frowned, and he didn't feel happy after drinking, "Is it convenient to tell me?" ”

"It's nothing inconvenient, it's just that I ran into Liu Lu again, and then I was unlucky and was imprisoned in Shuntian Mansion."

The matter has already passed, and Su Xiaomu has taken advantage of it, and she doesn't have any superfluous thoughts for herself.

She told Gu Jingcheng everything about the past few days, especially that Mrs. Wuding Hou was a good person and helped her with a lot of things.

But Gu Jingcheng's ears only heard that Su Xiaomu had been imprisoned.

When he heard that she was being locked up in that kind of place, his heart clenched up fiercely, and he instantly felt pain.

Gu Jingcheng himself had been imprisoned, and no one knew better than him how frightening and dirty that kind of place was.

Even if he himself is imprisoned, he is a man, even if he suffers some hardships, it is nothing.

But Su Xiaomu is different, she shouldn't bear this.

The more Gu Jingcheng thought about it, the more he felt that Su Xiaomu was wronged, and the more he felt that she had endured hardship, the more he hated herself for not having the ability.

If he could hold the power in his hands earlier and have the power that people are afraid of, then the person surnamed Liu would not dare to hurt Su Xiaomu like this.

Gu Jingcheng clenched his fists, and at the moment when the wine was in his stomach, he became more and more determined to go to high school and have power.

"Xiaomu."

"Huh?"

"I promise, I will definitely become your backer in the future, so that none of them dare to bully her, and I will also make Liu Lu pay the price for this incident."
