Yun Xiangye, while boating on a spring day, lost her footing and fell into the lake. She was rescued by Gu Yan, a wealthy young master who was recuperating in Jiangnan.
To repay his great kin...
Gu Yan said: "You have always been my wife in my heart. But you, since you came to Chang'an, the days of divorce are numbered. In your heart, I am nothing!"
Yun Xiangye shouted angrily, "Yes, you are nothing in my heart, get out!"
Seeing Yun Xiangye getting more and more angry, Gu Yan frowned and said, "I've already been humble to you. This time, the fault is not mine. I won't try to coax you into apologizing again. This time, it's your turn to apologize to me."
After saying this, Gu Yan angrily turned away.
Yun Xiangye took a deep breath and apologized to him herself?
What are you daydreaming about?
Why does he accuse me of neglecting Nuonuo?
In terms of the time she spent with Nuonuo, she had spent much more time than Gu Yan. Just today, she was busy selecting an embroiderer and neglected Nuonuo, so he came to blame her. How could Gu Yan have the right to blame himself?
Yun Xiangye put Gu Yan out of her mind and after noting down the heights of the two sisters Fu Qianran and Fu Anran, she took a pen and paper and drew her ideas on paper.
It was three quarters past midnight, late at night and everyone was asleep.
Gu Yan tossed and turned in the study room of Qingfeng Garden, unable to sleep.
Gu Yan stood up and called out to Qing Ming, the servant outside, "Yun Xiangye has never come to the study to look for me?"
Qing Ming whispered, "No."
"Master, why don't you go and admit your fault to the lady? A real man can bend and stretch. It's not spineless to admit your fault to the lady."
Gu Yan frowned and said, "I will never admit my mistake to her this time. I spoiled her too much before, and she became arrogant and gets angry at the slightest word. If I give in to her this time, I will be her grandson!"
Qing Ming whispered, "Isn't that just a difference in generations?"
Gu Yan glared at Qing Ming angrily, "Get out."
