Chapter 172 Gu Yan uses the beauty trap
Gu Yan went to get the quilt and spread it out. He turned to Yun Xiangye, fanned her and said, "It's not as cool here as in Qingfeng Garden. There is a lake behind Qingfeng Garden, which is the coolest in summer. Why don't you take Nuonuo back to live in Qingfeng Garden?"
Yun Xiangye said, "No need. With ice cubes, it's not too hot. Besides, you and I have already divorced. What's the point of me going back to Qingfeng Garden?"
After Yun Xiangye finished speaking, she fell asleep with her back to Gu Yan.
At night, a strong wind blew up. It was a hot night and it was easy for strong winds and heavy rain to come. There were lightning and thunder, which was very terrifying.
Yun Xiangye was awakened by a loud thunder. She saw a light in the room and heard the sound of whistling wind outside.
Gu Yan got up repeatedly to close the windows that were originally used for ventilation and coolness.
Yun Xiangye patted Xiao Nuonuo gently, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Xiao Nuonuo was sleeping soundly and had not woken up.
The rumbling thunder is terrifying, the crackling sound of raindrops as big as beans, and the whistling wind seem to be able to blow down the house.
Yun Xiangye sat up and looked outside.
Gu Yan saw Yun Xiangye sitting up, walked over to her, hugged her in his arms and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Yun Xiangye was not afraid of thunder at the moment, but she recalled that when she was young, there were also such violent storms, lightning and thunder. At that time, she had just lived in a separate room from her mother, and although she had servants around her, she was still afraid.
Her mother and father heard her crying and came in the rain to hold her in their arms.
And the day my mother passed away, there was also a violent storm, lightning and thunder...
Every year after that, when she encountered summer thunder, she would always think of her parents involuntarily. When she cried, Gu Yan thought she was afraid, but she was not.
Yun Xiangye pushed Gu Yan away and said, "I'm not afraid of thunder."
"Aren't you afraid?" Gu Yan frowned and said, "At this time last year, I rushed back in the heavy rain for you... You still said that I didn't care about you. Do you know that the hailstones last year were as big as eggs? I was afraid that you would be scared, so I rushed back in a hurry... Now you say that I don't care about you."
Yun Xiangye recalled that this happened last year and it seemed that the sky that day was just like today.
But the wind seemed to be stronger that day, and there was hail, which was rare to see.
Yun Xiangye recalled that day last year when Gu Yan came back all wet and held her in his arms, making her feel no fear just like today.
Yun Xiangye said: "I am not afraid of thunder, but my mother died on a thunderstorm day."
Gu Yan could only hold Yun Xiangye's hand to comfort her.
Yun Xiangye lowered her head and looked at Gu Yan's hand and said, "It's raining, the ground must be even wetter, just go to sleep..."
Before Yun Xiangye uttered the word "small couch", Gu Yan happily got on the bed.
Yun Xiangye: "I'll let you sleep on the small couch..."
"The small couch is next to the window. It must have been soaked by the heavy rain just now." Gu Yan climbed onto the bed and held Yun Xiangye's waist. "Go to sleep quickly. We still have to go to the mountain tomorrow."
Yun Xiangye was in Gu Yan's arms, whispering, "Only today, we have already divorced, this is against etiquette."
Gu Yan smiled and said, "Yeah."
The weather was much cooler after the rain. Yun Xiangye was woken up by a kiss in the morning. She was about to get angry and scold Gu Yan for taking advantage of her, when she saw Nuonuo's face enlarged in front of her.
Yun Xiangye smiled for a moment, holding Nuonuo's cheek and kissing her.
Seeing Yun Xiangye's changed expression, Gu Yan chuckled and said, "Let's hurry up the mountain while the sun is still bright. If the sun gets brighter, it will be very hot."
Yun Xiangye washed up casually and followed Gu Yan into the carriage.
Inside the carriage, the little Nuonuo face poked out of the window, looking at the morning market.
The carriage went all the way to the mountain on the outskirts of the city. It took more than half an hour before it arrived at a valley. In the valley, there were daylilies all over the mountain and there was a green spring lake.
“What a beautiful place.”
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but sigh: "There is such a beautiful place in Chang'an City."
Gu Yan said: "This place was given to my mother by my father. The daylilies all over the mountain were planted by my father. Because my mother's name has the word 'Xuan' in it, few people know about this place."
Xiao Nuonuo was picking daylilies, and Yun Xiangye made a daylily wreath for her to wear.
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan and said, "Your father really cares about your mother. Even though the Prime Minister is so busy with official duties, he can still spare time to build this paradise for your mother."
Gu Yan said: "If you think this is caring, I can also plant a mulberry tree for you..."
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but smile and said, "Your father planted a field of beautiful daylilies for your mother, but you want to plant a field of mulberry trees for me?"
Gu Yan said: "Your name is Xiangye, so naturally I can only plant mulberry trees for you..."
Yun Xiangye: “…”
Gu Yan really has no idea about romance.
Nuonuo was clamoring to go into the lake to play, so Gu Yan took Nuonuo into the water. The sun was high in the sky and had been shining for an hour or two, and the water temperature was acceptable.
Yun Xiangye didn't bring any change of clothes with her, so she just stood on the shore watching Nuonuo and Gu Yan swimming.
Gu Yan and Nuonuo were playing with water. Yun Xiangye saw that Nuonuo was at a disadvantage, so she also splashed water on Gu Yan on the shore.
Seeing this, Gu Yan was not polite to Yun Xiangye. He was so eager to win that he splashed water all over Yun Xiangye.
Yun Xiangye was soaking wet and said, "Gu Yan! I didn't even bring a change of clothes..."
Gu Yan pulled Yun Xiangye into the water and said, "There is a small house next to it. The sun is so bright, the clothes will dry in a while."
Yun Xiangye suddenly entered the water and clung to Gu Yan's neck, angrily saying, "Gu Yan!"
Nuonuo swam happily in the water, splashing water with her little hands, "Mom."
Yun Xiangye couldn't bear to see Nuonuo feel lost, so she also played with Nuonuo by splashing water. After playing for two quarters of an hour, Yun Xiangye was afraid that Nuonuo would get cold after staying in the water for too long, so she carried Nuonuo to the shore and went to a small house nearby.
Yun Xiangye changed Nuonuo's clothes first.
Maybe Nuonuo was tired from playing, and she fell asleep right after she dried her hair and changed her clothes.
Yun Xiangye went outside, took off her outer clothes, hoping that the sun would dry them sooner.
Gu Yan, who was standing by, couldn't help swallowing when he saw Yun Xiangye only wearing a tube top.
Yun Xiangye saw Gu Yan's look and frowned, "If you look at me again, I will dig your eyes out."
Gu Yan smiled and looked away, saying, "It's not like I haven't seen it before."
As Gu Yan spoke, he also took off his wet clothes, hung them up, and left his arms bare.
Yun Xiangye's heart skipped a beat when she saw Gu Yan's broad shoulders and narrow waist.
Gu Yan's figure seemed to be better than before. Perhaps it was because he had practiced martial arts more after returning to Chang'an City. The eight strong muscles on his abdomen did not have a single bit of excess...
Yun Xiangye saw Gu Yan getting closer and closer. She raised her eyes and looked at Gu Yan, "Why are you so close to me?"
Gu Yan said: "You kept staring at me, I thought you liked it, so I moved closer to you."
Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye's wrist and placed her hand on his abdomen. "Are you satisfied? I practiced this especially for you. I know you like it."
Yun Xiangye only felt that her hands and ears were very hot. Did Gu Yan think that the self-torture strategy of illness was useless and tried to use the beauty trap?
