After saying that, he turned around and pushed the door open to walk out.
Gu Changzhou stood alone in front of the study door. A chilly breeze blew in, and he realized a layer of sweat had formed on his back. He wiped his forehead with his hand and looked down at the book in his hand.
——"Dream Talk Notes·Volume 2"
Gu Changzhou: “…”
.
Qin Zhao walked out of Gu's house wrapped in a long coat.
The night breeze was chilly. Qin Zhao rubbed his numb fingers and immediately saw the carriage waiting at the door of Gu's house.
The carriage was lit with candlelight, and the dim light cast a vague and warm shadow on the curtains. He was motionless, obviously asleep. The servant of the Gu Mansion who was guarding the carriage saw Qin Zhao coming out and hurriedly came forward: "Mr. Qin——"
"Shh." Qin Zhao raised his hand and pressed it to his lips, signaling him to speak in a lower voice.
The servant nodded and sighed softly, "Mr. Qin treats Madam so well."
Qin Zhao lowered his eyes, hiding a gentle smile in them, and said, "Let's go."
The servant helped him into the carriage.
The carriage was warmed by the charcoal brazier. Jing Li huddled in a corner, curled up in a ball, and fell into a deep sleep.
Qin Zhao couldn't help but even breathe lighter.
Given Qin Zhao's personality, there could have been a safer and more thorough solution to today's incident.
Ji Zhifei offended someone he shouldn't have offended, so even if he had to pay with his life, it was only right.
But he chose not to do that.
This was naturally not because Qin Zhao was soft-hearted, nor was it because of Gu Changzhou's plea.
He would do that simply because he thought this was the result his young husband most wanted to see.
His young husband was so kind that he could shed a few tears of guilt for a stranger who had nothing to do with him.
If he really fought violence with violence, Jing Li probably wouldn't be too happy.
Qin Zhao lowered his eyes to look at the beautiful sleeping face, and suddenly felt a little worried.
He began to worry again about how his husband would react if he found out his identity.
Would he be afraid knowing that he had been that kind of person?
Will you feel disgusted?
What should I do...
The former regent, who had been so calm just now, seemed to be walking on thin ice when facing this simple and harmless boy.
"Hmm..." The carriage began to move slowly forward. Jing Li's head shook and he woke up in a daze. He rubbed his eyes, but he was too sleepy to open them. "Are we home yet?"
Qin Zhao lowered his head and kissed the other person's slightly open lips gently: "It's almost time, go back to sleep if you're tired."
"I'm not sleepy. I'll wake up soon." Jing Li closed his eyes and rubbed Qin Zhao's arms. He rubbed his hands for a while, accurately found Qin Zhao's cold hands, and placed them in his palms to warm them. "They're so cold. Remember to ask Ah Qi to make you some ginger soup when you get home."
"good."
The young man's whole body was warmed up in the carriage, like a small stove, soft and warm.
"Did Master Gu agree?"
"What?"
"The price has increased." Jing Li asked, "Otherwise, what did you talk about for so long?"
Qin Zhao suddenly realized.
The little guy thought he went to discuss his salary with Boss Gu.
"I agree." Qin Zhaoxin said nonsense, "The monthly increase is 25 taels, and they also give you free snacks."
"You asked for this last one, didn't you?" Jing Li buried her head in Qin Zhao's arms, giggling, "But the snacks at the Gu Mansion are really delicious. Let Xiaoyuzi have some when I get home. He's sure to like it."
"If he likes it too, aren't you worried that he'll snatch it all away?"
"What are you talking about?" Jing Li was dissatisfied. "Am I the kind of person who would compete with my son for snacks?"
"Well, you are not, I am." Qin Zhao coaxed without any principles.
Jing Li snorted, too lazy to argue with him.
The carriage drove quietly into the night. Qin Zhao gently stroked the hair of the person in his arms and sighed silently.
His young husband only thinks about food and money all the time, which makes his worries seem a bit unnecessary.
I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.
well.
