Pei'er was startled at first, but a shy smile quickly crossed her face. "I just bought it casually on the street. I'm glad it's favored by the Third Young Master... If the Third Young Master likes it, I'll go out and buy some more another day."

Gu Qing looked at Pei'er carefully again. Her collar was pulled very low, so that a large area of ​​white was exposed at her chest, and when she bent down a little more, some parts of her body were clearly exposed.

As a woman herself, she knew exactly what Pei'er was trying to do by doing this.

Perhaps, the packet of medicine powder Pei'er got last night was not for the guests outside today.

To verify this speculation, Gu Qing pretended to be completely oblivious. She took a sip of the tea in her cup and looked at Pei'er with a genuine smile: "You look really good in this dress today. It sets off your rosy face, which is particularly charming."

"How dare this servant? Young lady is a true beauty. I am only able to enter your mansion thanks to your grace. Otherwise..."

Gu Qing had long forgotten what Pei'er said afterwards.

However, she clearly saw that when she and Chen Zhizhou praised Pei'er, the corners of Pei'er's lips couldn't help but rise, and her joy was hard to hide.

"Go and tell the kitchen to bring over the chicken soup I made for my grandmother today." Gu Qing deliberately gave Pei'er this instruction.

Even though these were just small tasks, she was still extremely worried about Pei'er.

As long as this person hangs around in the Chen family for one day, he will always be a huge hidden danger. However, the Chen family now has Pei'er as an insider. This person cannot be found, and Pei'er cannot get rid of him easily.

It has always been a knot in Gu Qing's heart!

After Gu Qing let out a long sigh, she instructed Le Ran beside her: "Remember to send a few more pairs of eyes to keep an eye on Pei'er at all times."

After accepting the order, he hurried to the end of the corridor and did what he was told.

Chen Zhizhou walked out of the house. He glanced at the person standing in front of him who was worried, and asked with a bit of confusion: "Since you don't trust her so much, why do you let Pei'er do these errands? Since-"

"Husband, there is one more thing I need to discuss with you in detail. The plan has changed." Gu Qing smiled and raised the corners of her lips. While speaking, she blinked her innocent eyes at Chen Zhizhou.

only--

Now, whenever Chen Zhizhou heard her talk about her plan, his heart would skip a beat and he would vaguely sense an ominous premonition.

Gu Qing carefully told Chen Zhizhou her thoughts...

At first, she thought Chen Zhizhou would overreact and would definitely not agree.

Unexpectedly, this time Chen Zhizhou responded decisively, "Okay."

"Could it be that someone has already started to have some inappropriate thoughts? When I asked you to help me with the situation, you deliberately acted very embarrassed. It seems that—"

Before Gu Qing could finish his words, a pair of thin lips covered his.

He pried open the pearly teeth of the person in his arms with ease, and this time he firmly blocked her sharp mouth that was always right and unreasonable.

After a long while, Chen Zhizhou reluctantly released her hand and let her escape from his arms: "Qing'er, if you continue to slander your husband like this in the future, next time, I will not punish you just like this."

Chen Zhizhou's heavy kiss just now had almost suffocated her...

Gu Qing was filled with resentment but was helpless against him. She could only stand there and stamp her feet anxiously, "You can only bully me as you please!"

"As a husband, I am just proving my innocence. In my heart and eyes, from the beginning to the end, there is only you. It's you, you little heartless person." After saying this, Chen Zhizhou grabbed her slender waist and held her in his arms.

A pink figure flashed past in the pavilion on the corridor in front, and I realized that there was someone standing in front of me and eavesdropping.

Gu Qing turned around, pretending to be angry, and punched Chen Zhizhou in the chest again and again. "Look at you, you spend all day wandering around with girls. Everyone in the capital knows you're the most extravagant playboy. But now you're coming back later and later. I've seen that all you men are just superficial..."

Chen Zhizhou was stunned by Gu Qing's inexplicable scolding at first, and then he looked her up and down in surprise: "Qing'er, what are you talking about..."

But soon, Chen Zhizhou realized why she was like this!

Chen Zhizhou also deliberately pretended to be furious. He flicked his sleeves and said, "A real man should have great ambitions. We've been married for so long, and we haven't had any children. Look around the capital, which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Why are you so jealous?"

Jealous?

He actually said that he was jealous!

Gu Qing rolled her eyes at Chen Zhizhou. "Well, you finally spoke your mind. Earlier you said you didn't care if I gave birth to a child or not. No wonder you're out all day and all night now. I finally see the light, Chen Zhizhou!"

Chen Zhizhou was not a fool, so he could naturally see that Gu Qing was really angry.

He just didn't understand. It was Qing'er who started the conversation first. They had agreed that it was just a show, so why was Qing'er still angry?

Gu Qing walked towards the dining room angrily. No matter how fast Chen Zhizhou tried to catch up with her, she ignored him as if she treated Chen Zhizhou as air.

"Qing'er, Qing'er, please listen to my explanation. What I said to you just now, I was..." Chen Zhizhou wanted to explain, but he had just walked into the dining room and had not yet stepped through the door.

As a result, Cuiru directly closed the door of the dining room and locked him out.

Chen Zhizhou hesitated as he glanced towards the dining room, then said angrily, "Cui Ru, open the door."

"The old lady said that the young lady has a gentle nature and will never get angry easily. The third young master must have done something stupid to make the young lady angry. The third young master might as well stand outside and reflect on himself and think about where he went wrong." Cui Ru relayed the old lady's words verbatim to the person outside the door.

Gu Qing pulled out a chair and slowly sat down.

Old Madam Chen glanced sideways at the door, snorted coldly, and said quietly, "I've heard about this matter as well. Let's eat first, Qing'er. Since you've married into our Chen family, as long as I'm alive, I won't let you suffer such nameless grievances. Just wait, Grandmother will definitely give you an explanation on this matter."

An hour later——

Chen Zhizhou's voice echoed in the courtyard, "Qing'er, are you really so heartless?"
