Chapter 781 Gu Huaiyu's Test
Du Qingyu walked out of the yard yawning and saw a man standing at the gate.
The man was dressed in a white robe and was handsome and elegant. It was Gu Huaiyu.
When Du Qingyu looked at Gu Huaiyu, he felt guilty and subconsciously wanted to run away.
Du Qingyu was about to retreat back to the yard...
Gu Huaiyu glanced over and smiled at her: "Miss Du."
Du Qingyu had to pause and smiled like a lady: "Mr. Gu, what a coincidence."
She deliberately restrained her wild and casual nature and acted like a girl, for fear that he would recognize her.
"It's not a coincidence, I'm just waiting for Miss Du." Gu Huaiyu said.
Du Qingyu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Gu Huaiyu recognized him? !
"I heard that you are an excellent chess player, and I would like to compete with you." Gu Huaiyu continued.
Du Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he didn't recognize him, but wanted to play chess with him.
"Okay, okay." Du Qingyu said.
When he heard that Gu Huaiyu and Du Qingyu were going to play chess, the most excited person was Mr. Zhan, who immediately brought a small stool to watch.
At the same time, they also brought Mu Bao, who loves to watch the fun, and Tang Bao, who is interested in playing chess.
The two little guys sat next to Mr. Zhan.
The old queen mother and Tangli also came.
For a moment, there were many onlookers in the yard.
Du Qingyu and Gu Huaiyu sat opposite each other, one holding the white pieces and the other holding the black pieces.
As the moves began, Mr. Zhan became nervous. Gu Huaiyu must win to save face for him.
Later on, he was absorbed in the chess game and didn't care who won or lost.
Du Qingyu and Gu Huaiyu were really masters fighting each other. Both of them felt that they had met their equal. Later on, they needed to think for a long time before making each move.
Tangli felt nervous watching this.
Her eyes swept over Du Qingyu and Gu Huaiyu. Both of them looked thoughtful, with a hint of excitement in their eyes.
This may be the excitement of meeting a worthy opponent.
At this time, Mu Bao couldn't sit still anymore. He moved his little butt and glanced around.
Seeing this, the old queen took him away.
Tang Bao, on the other hand, supported her chin, blinking her shiny black eyes very slowly, as if she was looking very seriously.
Tangli was a little surprised. Could this little guy understand it?
This game of chess lasted from morning to afternoon, and Gu Huaiyu was defeated in the end with one loss.
Mr. Zhan felt very sorry, it was just a little bit off!
However, this result also saved his face.
Old Han, you see, my apprentice is not much worse than yours!
Gu Huaiyu did not feel disappointed, but felt refreshed. He looked at the girl in men's clothes in front of him. She was indeed the disciple of Mr. Han.
He bowed to Du Qingyu and said, "Miss Du, you win."
Du Qingyu also felt very refreshed. Her level and Gu Huaiyu's were actually similar, and they were evenly matched. Next time they played, it was hard to say who would win.
If it weren't for the Northern Barbarian incident, they might have become friends.
Unfortunately, there is no if, the incident has already happened. Gu Huaiyu has such an arrogant personality, if she knew that I was the one who bullied him, she would definitely beat her up...
Of course, if they really had to fight, she wouldn't necessarily lose. But Gu Huaiyu was Tangtang's brother, and she didn't want to make things awkward and put Tangtang in the middle, feeling caught in the middle.
So the best way is to prevent Gu Huaiyu from recognizing her.
"Thank you." Du Qingyu said politely.
"Have you ever been to the Northern Barbarians?" Gu Huaiyu suddenly asked.
Du Qingyu's heart skipped a beat, but the smile on his face remained impeccable: "I haven't been there."
She touched her belly and looked at Tangli coquettishly, "Little Li'er, I'm hungry."
"The food is ready, let's go and eat." Tang Li said.
The group moved to the dining hall and sat down to eat.
Du Qingyu sat down next to Tang Li, and asked Mr. Zhan to sit on the other side of him, separated from Gu Huaiyu.
Gu Huaiyu naturally felt the alienation between him and Miss Du. He just felt confused and had no other feelings.
Du Qingyu was so hungry that she forgot to act like a lady and ate the meat with big mouthfuls.
When she felt Gu Huaiyu's gaze on her, she froze.
"Miss Du, would you like some wine?" Gu Huaiyu asked.
Du Qingyu immediately became alert. When she was in Beiman, she loved eating meat and drinking wine with big mouthfuls. Could it be that Gu Huaiyu was testing her again?
Lady, lady, she is a lady!
Du Qingyu smiled like a lady and said, "I don't drink."
Du Qingyu restrained her bold personality and chewed the meat in small bites, like a lady from a noble family.
Tangli was puzzled. "Is the meat not to your taste this time?"
"Hehehe, I'm full." Du Qingyu said.
In order to pretend to be a lady, Du Qingyu didn't dare to eat meat or drink wine in big mouthfuls. She put down her bowl and chopsticks before she was even full.
However, Gu Huaiyu did not ask any more probing words. Du Qingyu felt that he had gotten away with it and breathed a sigh of relief.
After dinner, everyone left the table. When Du Qingyu thought she had escaped danger, she saw Du Xiaobai coming to her.
Du Qingyu's heart was beating wildly and his expression was almost unbearable.
It could be said that it was a coincidence that Gu Huaiyu became suspicious of her because of her voice, but if she also had a younger brother, and her younger brother had the same voice as the doctor who treated him, then it would definitely not be a coincidence, and her cover would be exposed!
Du Qingyu walked quickly towards Du Xiaobai.
When Du Xiaobai saw Gu Huaiyu, he was stunned for a moment. The next moment, his sister put her arms around his back and walked out.
Gu Huaiyu looked at their backs, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Tangtang, that boy is..."
"It's Qingyu's younger brother Du Xiaobai." Tangli said.
Gu Huaiyu's suppressed suspicion surfaced again: "Does Du Xiaobai know medicine?"
"Du Xiaobai studied medicine with Doctor Su and has good medical skills."
Gu Huaiyu's hands clenched subconsciously: "Did Du Qingyu and Du Xiaobai go to Beiman? About half a year ago."
Half a year ago...
Tangli seemed to be lost in thought.
This time, Du Qingyu and her correspondence had stopped for almost eight months. She didn't know whether Du Qingyu had been to the Northern Barbarians half a year ago...
"Brother, why are you asking this? Did you know each other before?" Tang Li asked. She felt that her brother's attitude towards Du Qingyu was too strange, too complicated to explain.
"Before, I was seriously injured and stranded in the Northern Barbarians, where I was rescued by a brother and sister named Yu. I couldn't see at that time and could only hear voices. The voice of the girl who rescued me sounded very much like Miss Du." Gu Huaiyu said.
Tangli was also shocked. If that was true, it was too much of a coincidence. What kind of fate could it be that they could actually meet in Beiman?!
However, her second brother couldn't see it, but Qingyu could.
If it really is, the bluefish will be able to recognize it.
Tang Li always felt that her second brother was hiding something from her.
"I'll go ask Qingyu?" Tangli said.
Gu Huaiyu pondered for a moment and shook his head: "No need."
He wanted to figure this out himself.
Du Qingyu hugged Du Xiaobai and walked a long way away. There was still shock on Du Xiaobai's face.
"Sister, why is that cool guy here?" Du Xiaobai asked.
His sister said that the name given was a fake one, so she gave him a code name, saying that he was a cold-blooded guy, abbreviated as Cool Brother, and Du Xiaobai also followed suit and called him Cool Brother.
He never thought that he would meet that cool guy at Sister Tangli's house!
"He is Tangtang's second brother, Gu Huaiyu." Du Qingyu said.
"He is Gu Huaiyu?!" Du Xiaobai was shocked.
In the previous war between the Great Zhou and the Northern Barbarians, it was said that the disappearance of the Great Zhou generals led to the Great Zhou's successive defeats. Later, after the return of the young general, the defeat was reversed and the Northern Barbarians were beaten to a pulp.
So the cool guy is the young general?!
"Xiaobai, when you see Gu Huaiyu, you can't speak." Du Qingyu said.
Du Xiaobai was very smart and immediately understood: "Sister, he still doesn't know that we saved him?"
"Hmm." Du Qingyu responded vaguely.
"Sister, you shouldn't have..." Du Xiaobai said.
His sister always says that rabbits don't eat grass near their burrows, and this cool guy is definitely the grass near his burrows.
"I thought I would never have the chance to see him again, and he has such a good figure and those muscles..." Du Qingyu drooled just thinking about it.
Du Qingyu slapped his head suddenly, beauty is harmful!
"Remember, never speak in front of him." Du Qingyu said.
Du Xiaobai nodded.
But, can he hide it if he doesn't speak?
