From being mutually disgusted after a marriage of convenience to becoming a doting husband.
Song Siyun had always disliked Gu Yanzhou, a fact known throughout the capital. She openly declared...
Chapter 28 Chapter 28 Madam is really ruthless. Last night she was still...
Song Siyun's face flushed red as he picked up the neatly stacked notebooks and threw them at Gu Yanzhou: "Gu Yanzhou, you are so insulting!"
The man's fingertips moved slightly, but after a moment of silence, he did nothing and just sat there, letting her leave.
Finally, he picked up the scattered notebooks, sat down beside her, and said softly, as if begging: "Ah Yun, let's make peace and stop quarreling, okay?"
Song Siyun looked away. Seeing that he looked serious and didn't seem to be pretending, he looked away for a while. He picked up a storybook with his fingers, leaned back like a boneless person, and muttered with a pout, "It depends on your performance."
Then he made another wish: "I want to eat honey apricots."
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, the unique sweet and sour smell of honey apricots rushed into her nose. Before she could say anything, the man handed it to her.
When the rough hand that had been holding a sword for years brought the honey apricot, which was only the size of a fingertip, to her lips, Song Siyun did not react for a moment.
The mockery in his eyes disappeared, and his hands and feet suddenly lost control and jumped up at the same time. Unfortunately, the notebook was disobedient and took advantage of the chaos to fall to the ground with a loud "bang".
In front of her eyes were the man's bright eyes; at her lips were the honey apricots he fed her; and at her feet was the notebook he had prepared long ago.
It felt like I was completely surrounded by him and there was nowhere to escape.
Suddenly panicking, she frantically tried to find an excuse to escape. As soon as she moved, the man's hand moved closer, his voice gentle but unyielding: "Ah Yun, eat the apricots first."
For some unknown reason, she opened her mouth.
Let his fingertips tap the lips and teeth.
The unique sour taste of apricots explodes in your mouth. When saliva is about to overflow, the sour lemon gradually disappears and begins to taste sweet again.
The sweet taste passes through the throat, making people's eyes curl up with pleasure.
After eating a piece of dried apricot, all the unhappiness disappeared and my mind was filled with the thought of wanting more.
Meeting her sparkling eager eyes, Gu Yanzhou curled his lips in a good mood, handed her the picked up notebook, took out a handkerchief to wash his hands, and then picked up the apricots to feed her.
Song Siyun happily opened the storybook, leaned forward and lay on the cushion with her mouth open.
The carriage was supposed to be bumpy, but she didn't feel it at all. She just felt that the journey was extremely comfortable, with endless books to read and endless preserved fruits to eat.
I don’t know when Gu Yanzhou prepared so many different kinds of preserved fruits, but I know that the taste, both soft and hard, is very much to her liking.
Before I knew it, I had eaten a lot.
In the evening, the carriage stopped at the Pipeline Post Station. When the waiter brought her dinner, she covered her mouth and burped.
Seeing this, Gu Yanzhou couldn't help but laugh. He pursed his lips and handed her a bowl of soup. "The dried fruit is dry and choking. Drink some soup to moisten it up."
The implication is that he's blaming her for being greedy? !
Song Siyun's eyes widened, but he was grateful for the favor he had received, so he kept silent. He just held the bowl with both hands and drank it in one gulp.
He slammed the bowl down on the table until not a drop was left, then stood up and left the table: "I'm full, everyone, enjoy your meal."
The attendants who had just arrived at the outskirts of the city were stunned. They nudged Ling Feng, who looked friendly, and whispered, "Are all the maids in the Minister's Mansion so courageous?"
Ling Feng, who was watching with great interest, blinked in the midst of his busy schedule, "What do you know? She's the most favored bed-warming maid in our mansion."
"Minister Gu has a bed-warming maid?!" The accompanying officers and soldiers widened their eyes inwardly and became more interested. They hurriedly pulled the man aside and asked him to tell them in detail.
With the idea of creating an identity for his wife, Ling Feng made up a story without hesitation. He even went so far as to fabricate the rumor that Gu Yanzhou liked women with sharp teeth who left marks on their teeth.
Not to mention the soldiers who were dumbfounded, even Qingfeng who was standing by couldn't stop. He was really worried that this person would not see the sun tomorrow.
With a sullen face, he pulled the man away by the collar, and before leaving, he tried to save his master's reputation: "He's talking nonsense, everyone just listen to him for fun."
This rebuttal was really weak. The soldiers nodded out of respect for the authority of his personal guards, but there was no belief in their eyes.
Qingfeng saw it clearly and silently lit a stick of incense for Lingfeng in his heart.
Gu Yanzhou was completely unaware of everything.
Soon after Song Siyun left the table, he lost interest in eating and simply went back to his room to handle official business.
As the night deepened, when I finished reading the files and was putting them away, I suddenly heard a low humming sound coming from behind the screen.
"Song Siyun?"
He called out twice but no one answered. He lowered his eyes and paused for a moment, then finally walked over.
As soon as he stepped over the screen, he saw that the person who had already turned off the lights and gone to bed was now rolling on the bed, holding his stomach and groaning.
This looks exactly like menstruation.
Gu Yanzhou stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
After carefully calculating the days, he dared to step forward and held the person in his arms, "Song Siyun, what's wrong with you? Is the soup today poisonous?"
After saying that, he rejected the idea. After all, he had drunk the soup and didn't feel any discomfort at all.
My mind was full of thoughts, but it finally settled on menstruation.
After opening and closing his lips for a long while, he finally asked, "But...but my period came early this month?"
Hearing this, Song Siyun finally raised his eyes, sweating profusely, and rolled his eyes, "Your period just came early, can you please give me some hope?"
Finally, he rolled over and said, "Ouch!" "I just have a stomachache."
"Maybe I ate too much preserved fruit..."
After a while, she looked at the sound and muttered guiltily.
Gu Yanzhou obviously hadn't expected this. After hearing this, he was silent for a long time before he finally spoke: "My fault."
After saying that, he mobilized his internal energy to massage her abdomen.
The warmth from the man's palm penetrated into his heart through the thin underwear, and his aching lower abdomen seemed to be warmed up and gradually calmed down.
The cramps that had been tormenting her for half the night dissipated, and Song Siyun's eyes lit up. She hurriedly pulled his other hand over and placed it on her lower abdomen, ordering him unreasonably: "Since it's your fault, then warm your abdomen and atone for it."
It was clearly to relieve her own abdominal pain, but every word she said seemed to be for his own good, to give him a chance to dispel his guilt.
Her unyielding character has not changed at all since she was a child.
He chuckled and shook his head, resigning himself to warming her belly.
Perhaps he was too comfortable, and after a while, he felt the person in his arms soften, and she leaned against him, her head nodding.
Gu Yanzhou lowered his eyes and saw the girl's straight nose and rosy lips.
At this moment, she was only wearing her underwear, and the moonlight was shining down, as if it had coated her with a layer of light, making her look even more ethereal.
Can't catch it, and can't let it go.
I really don’t know what to do.
Gu Yanzhou lowered his eyes, his gaze greedily falling on her, from the tip of his hair down, and then leading to her long and slender neck further down.
When a white curve came into his eyes, he suddenly realized what he had seen. He turned his head away in a hurry, his palms unconsciously curled up.
At this moment, the person in his arms opened his eyes drowsily, and his tone was soft and sweet, as if he had just woken up: "Gu Yanzhou, are you hot?"
She looked up at him, her eyes filled with the confusion of not waking up yet, and also with a vague concern.
"No."
Gu Yanzhou turned around and tugged at her loose collar in a hoarse voice. Then he covered her eyes and sighed, "Go to sleep."
The person in his arms didn't ask any more questions, just said "oh" and fell into a deep sleep.
It’s just that he… couldn’t sleep.
We spent the whole night in this circle.
When Song Siyun opened his eyes in the morning, he raised his head and something pricked his shoulders.
"What is that?" He carefully looked inside and found that it was a man's stubble.
She had never seen Gu Yanzhou with stubble before, this was the first time.
She even thought before that he was different from men like her father, and was born with a pretty face and no beard.
It seems that he is the same now, but in the past he got up early and had already tidied up, so he didn't have the chance to see it.
This is a rare time when I get up earlier than him.
Song Siyun shook himself in his arms, propped up his arms and sat up, facing him, scratching the blue stubble on his chin with his fingertips.
It pricks my hands but doesn't hurt, and it's quite fun.
She became more and more excited as she played, and gradually, her fingertips began to explore upwards, following the curve of her jaw, flicking her earlobes, stroking her temples, and lingering for a long time at the corners of her eyes.
When he was awake, his eyes were always scrutinizing, cold, inquiring, and stern. But when he was asleep, he never expected them to be so gentle, without a hint of aggression.
In fact, what Song Siyun liked most was his eyes. They were narrow and slender, and they looked majestic without anger, but at a glance, people could not help but believe him.
Her figure is not as round as hers, and she looks too heavy to be trusted.
There is a lot of trust lost.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh in frustration.
"Why did Ah Yun sigh?"
The sudden male voice startled her. She slapped him on the face with her unsteady hand, and her whole body shuddered. When she came to her senses, she hurriedly tried to hide backwards.
Despite being slapped for no reason, Gu Yanzhou didn't get angry. He simply crossed his legs and encircled the man. With a long arm, he grabbed the man by the waist and brought him back. He asked persistently, "Ah Yun, why are you sighing?"
It wasn't a big deal, so Song Siyun spoke frankly.
Unexpectedly, the man laughed out loud after hearing this, which really annoyed the people who saw it.
"Stop laughing!" Song Siyun puffed his cheeks and muttered softly, "What's so funny?"
"Are you angry and embarrassed?" The man raised his eyes and asked with a smile.
Seeing her face flushed with anger, she stopped laughing and solemnly promised: "Don't be upset, I won't laugh anymore. I won't laugh again."
Finally, he raised his hand to trace her eyes, rubbing the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, and whispered, "Actually, Ah Yun's eyes are the best."
He looked at her and said slowly, "These eyes are the hardest to guard against. You think you have everything under control, your heart is as solid as a rock, but before you know it, you've lost ground. You wish you had given up everything."
The tone was affectionate and intimate.
Song Siyun couldn't help but stare at him in a daze.
Staring at the upside-down, tiny self in his eyes.
For a moment, she really thought that this person was her.
But when I saw her face clearly, I suddenly remembered that I was 70% similar to my elder sister.
He must be looking through her...
Look at my sister.
Otherwise, where does the sense of loss and unattainableness in the eyes come from?
Suddenly awakened, he pushed the person away and drew a line with a cold face: "Minister Gu, please be careful."
Her eyes fell on the hands around his waist.
Gu Yanzhou also looked in the direction she was looking. There was a moment of loss in his eyes. He twitched his lips in self-mockery, but after a moment he adjusted himself and teased, "Madam, you are truly heartless. You dragged me to bed last night, and now you're turning your back on me?"
Look at this scoundrel!
Song Siyun gritted his teeth in anger and retorted, "How dare you say that? If you hadn't fed me those things yesterday, I would have had more than just unbearable stomachache!"
At the head of the bed, the man smiled and raised his eyebrows, his tone lazy and innocent: "You want to eat it."
"You! Bastard!"
Unable to argue with him, he grabbed a nearby pillow and threw it at him. The man nimbly turned sideways, letting the pillow pass by him and smash the window.
The two men looked up and saw the stunned soldiers tugging at their clothes...
