I heard you haven't been feeling well these past few days?

Thinking of the message Zhong Lin sent back, Yun Yichen looked her up and down and was relieved to see that she hadn't lost weight.

I finally managed to fix it for her, I hope it won't all be for nothing in just a few days.

"I did feel a little uncomfortable, but I'm fine now."

Gu Shuyan wasn't surprised at all that Yun Yichen knew she had been lying in the room for several days. She would have been heartbroken if Yun Yichen hadn't even known that.

"Aren't you going to tell me why I suddenly felt unwell?"

Seeing her nonchalant expression, Yun Yichen felt a strange tightness in his chest. Did this girl even know what he wanted to say?

She had acted so smart before, and even after he directly asked her, she still wasn't planning to confess!

"What else could it be? It's because I can't see Brother Yun." Gu Shuyan pouted as she finished speaking, looking just like she had been wronged.

Seeing her like this, how could Yun Yichen possibly say anything to blame her? Since he didn't want to talk about Aunt Zhang, he simply wouldn't ask.

Seeing the pastries on the small table not far away, Yun Yichen said, "Have you been craving them these past few days? There's your favorite Hundred Flower Cake over there, go and have some!"

Looking at the plate full of Hundred Flower Cakes, Gu Shuyan quickly brought it over. She glanced at Yun Yichen, who had returned to his work, and for a moment felt a little reluctant to disturb him.

About half an hour later, Gu Shuyan quietly left the study. However, Gu Shuyan did not see a gentle gaze watching her as she left until she was far away.

"Miss, has the matter been settled?"

Seeing her young mistress's beaming smile, Pearl assumed that Gu Shuyan had resolved her worries.

To everyone's surprise, Gu Shuyan smiled and said, "We didn't talk about it."

"No talks?"

Pearl almost knelt down when she saw Gu Shuyan's delighted expression. She hadn't expected her young lady to be so happy. It was clear that the eldest young master's approach was correct; once the young lady came to the Yun residence, she stopped thinking.

Seemingly noticing Pearl's frustration, Gu Shuyan patted her shoulder reassuringly.

"Don't worry, I'll handle this myself."

Thinking of the countless official documents on Yun Yichen's desk, Gu Shuyan decided that it would be better to handle this matter herself.

A few days later, Gu Shuyan asked Gu Renjie for leave and went to the street with two maids.

The busy farming season in August had no effect on the bustling city of Beijing, where young men and women strolled around in small groups, chatting and laughing.

Gu Shuyan, accompanied by two maids, appeared to be walking rather hurriedly.

Upon arriving at Wangjiang Tower, Gu Shuyan asked the two to wait outside while she was led by the innkeeper to a private room on the third floor.

"Young master, the person has arrived."

The innkeeper pushed open the door, respectfully reported to the person inside, and then bowed and withdrew.

Gu Shuyan stepped into the inner room and immediately saw Xu Yunzhi standing in front of the bed.

Xu Yunzhi was wearing a lake-blue silk floral long gown today, which complemented the scenery perfectly.

However, when faced with such a stunningly handsome man, Gu Shuyan only paused for a moment before looking away.

"Young Master Xu."

Gu Shuyan politely clasped her hands in a fist salute to Xu Yunzhi, a gesture that seemed somewhat incongruous given her petite and frail figure. However, Xu Yunzhi didn't seem to mind.

"Miss Gu arrived faster than I expected. Has she made up her mind and decided to marry me?"
