Chapter 170 The person who hates liars the most
"Who is your wife?"
An Zhicheng stood in front of his master and stopped Changpu.
"Zhicheng." Xie Suzhou put his hand on his shoulder and smiled at him, "You go buy some things first, I'll go see her." An Zhicheng then took his hand away from him and glanced at Changpu with a slightly defensive look, "Yes."
Changpu ignored him and just looked at Xie Suzhou, still repeating the same words, "Doctor, the lady wants to see you."
There was a carriage parked in the distance. Xie Suzhou looked up and saw a hand quickly withdrawing from the curtain. The curtain swayed slightly, and no one in the carriage could be seen.
Xie Suzhou's eyes flashed with helplessness for a moment, and his gaze fell on Changpu. He said in a low voice, "It's inconvenient to talk outside. Come in with me."
Acorus' eyes lit up and he quickly agreed, "Yes."
The Xie family's house was not big, and it didn't take long to reach the central hall. Gu Yunchang was secretly looking around all the way, and even memorized the number of flowers blooming in the Xie family's garden.
"Madam, I have just arrived in the capital, and my home is not yet fully furnished. I don't have any refreshments to entertain you, so I hope you will forgive me." Xie Suzhou's eyes were gloomy, his face calm, and he lowered his head, not looking at her. "I wonder why Madam, the Duke, has come to see you this time?"
Seeing him, Gu Yunchang was inexplicably nervous, as if she was afraid of being rejected by him again, "Suzhou, is your injury better? Do you want me to find a doctor for you..."
"Madam, the Duke." Xie Suzhou frowned, his tone displeased, "I think I made my point clear enough last time."
Gu Yunchang was stunned, fiddling with her nails helplessly. After a moment of silence, she mustered up her courage and abruptly changed the subject, "Suzhou, is there anything else you need at your house? I'll send some over..."
"Madam, it's really rude of you to do this." Xie Suzhou raised his eyes, his gaze fell on her face, and his body subconsciously froze.
"Doctor, our wife means well, how could you..."
"calamus!"
Gu Yunchang frowned at her and scolded her in a low voice, stopping her from talking. Then she looked at the man opposite her with a bitter smile, "It's okay... It's okay, Suzhou, I just wanted to talk to you more..."
Xie Suzhou frowned and slowly stood up. There was oppression in his clear eyes and his face was gloomy.
"What are you...going to do?" Changpu's heart tightened, and he quickly stood in front of his wife, "Thank you, Doctor, we can leave if we disagree. Don't be so presumptuous. Don't forget that the person sitting in front of you is the wife of Duke Su!"
Gu Yunchang also felt the low pressure from him, and slowly clenched her hands on her knees, "Suzhou..."
"Who hit you in the face?"
Gu Yunchang paused, raised her head in disbelief, with some panic in her eyes, and subconsciously covered her cheeks with her hands.
She had clearly covered it up with makeup before leaving the house, so how could this child still see it?
Xie Suzhou's eyes grew colder, and he narrowed his peach blossom eyes. His voice was calm, yet with a strong sense of oppression, "Is it Duke Su?"
"No..." Gu Yunchang wanted to cover it up. She couldn't let the father and son be separated before they were reunited. "I knocked it accidentally."
Xie Suzhou was silent, his expression was indistinct, his eyes gradually grew colder, "Madam, if you can't be honest about everything, it's better for you to leave as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Gu Yunchang's expression suddenly changed, "No, I..."
"Suzhou!"
A green figure flashed outside the door, and the girl's sweet voice reached the hall.
Hearing this familiar voice, the low pressure on Xie Suzhou's body quickly dissipated, and the frost melted away. He turned sideways and looked outside. Before he saw anyone, the corners of his lips began to rise.
Su Cheng was standing under the vermilion lacquered corridor in a green brocade dress, which made her skin look whiter than snow. Her long hair was loosely tied up, and she still wore the magnolia hairpin he had given her on her head. The jade pendant on her earlobe swayed gently as she ran.
With her arrival, the silent and dull house became lively.
"Ah Cheng." Xie Suzhou stepped forward, stretched out his arms, and hugged the girl who was running towards him. He boldly rubbed her cheek, "Why are you here?"
"I heard that you have a new house in Beijing, so of course I have to come and see it." Su Cheng didn't notice anything and stepped out of his arms. After taking two steps, he saw Gu Yunchang sitting in the middle hall.
Su Cheng paused, and after coming to his senses, he hurriedly bowed to her and called softly, "Greetings, Madam Duke."
Before she could bend down, Xie Suzhou held her arm firmly.
Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, then glared at him secretly, "What are you doing?"
Xie Suzhou didn't say anything, and his hand under her arm didn't move at all.
Gu Yunchang pursed her lips, her eyes wandering between the two of them. Noticing the awkward atmosphere, she quickly spoke, "It's Miss Zhao. Hurry up, no need to bow."
Su Cheng rolled his eyes at the man beside him, slowly stood up, and smiled apologetically, "Thank you, ma'am."
Damn Xie Laoer, why didn’t he remind himself earlier when there was someone else at home!
"Miss Zhao, come and sit down." Gu Yunchang was an experienced person, so how could she not see the twists and turns between the two of them.
Xie Suzhou has always been a cold and self-restrained person, but when he met Su Cheng, his temperament changed unexpectedly, like a dead tree coming back to life in spring, and there was no trace of his coldness left.
Su Cheng sat down opposite her, quiet and well-behaved, "Madam, just call me Su Cheng."
Gu Yunchang smiled at her, looked at her calmly, with deep affection flashing in her eyes.
She had always thought that this girl was likable, with a first-rate appearance and a well-proportioned figure. It was no wonder that Suzhou was attracted to her. She would like her no matter how she saw her.
[Host, please help Xie Suzhou find his relatives. There is no time limit. If you succeed in the task, you can draw a blind box once.]
This task came suddenly. Su Cheng was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses and subconsciously looked at Xie Suzhou.
My goodness, that handsome face is almost frozen.
Su Cheng cleared his throat, glanced at the table, frowned slightly, and said in a reproachful tone, "Madam, why don't you even serve a cup of tea when you come here?"
Xie Suzhou pursed his lips, looking uneasy. "I just came here, and there's no tea at home."
Nonsense!
When he was at Zhao's house, he had a very pleasant conversation with Zhao Hu and felt that they had met too late. Before leaving, Zhao Hu gave him a lot of good things, including several boxes of famous tea.
Su Cheng raised his eyes and glared at him, his expression turned cold, and he lowered his voice, "I'll ask again, do you have any tea?"
"...Yes, I'll go make some right now." Xie Suzhou didn't dare to say anything else. He just stood up and walked out as if accepting his fate.
After Xie Suzhou disappeared into the corridor, Su Cheng smiled and looked at the woman opposite him, saying softly, "Why is the Duke's wife here?"
Gu Yunchang pursed her lips and said a little embarrassedly, "Dr. Xie and I hit it off right away, so I thought I'd come over and visit."
The embarrassed expressions of this mother and son were exactly the same.
Su Cheng smiled, her fingertips gently stroking the Bodhi bracelet on her wrist, "Madam, Suzhou hates liars the most."
