Gu Qian disliked Bai Lu, so he took the bedding from Bai Lu's hands and said coldly, "You can go down now."
Bai Lu glanced at Qiu Yan, and seeing her nod, she nodded and withdrew.
Gu Qian made the bed himself, doing it meticulously.
Qiu Yan smiled as she watched Gu Qian's movements. "Gu Qian, I can do it myself."
Gu Qian smiled and replied, "It'll be ready soon." He was very happy that Qiu Yan agreed to check in and was happy to do anything for her.
After being made up, the bed looked brand new.
"Yan Yan, lie down and get some sleep. I'll wake you up when dinner is ready." After a long journey, Gu Qian knew that Qiu Yan was exhausted.
"I need to take a shower first." The summer weather was unbearably hot and dry, and Qiu Yan felt sticky all over. She couldn't sleep without taking a shower.
"Okay, I'll have someone prepare it immediately." Gu Qian said, and walked out of the room.
...After Qiu Yan finished her bath, she felt refreshed.
She changed her clothes, had someone empty the bathtub, then locked the door from the inside and fell asleep.
I woke up to find it was already past dusk.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes, and before she could get up, she noticed a dark figure in front of the house.
It was Gu Qian, who sat on the steps in front of the house.
Qiu Yan sat up, put on her coat and shoes, and opened the door.
"Gu Qian, when did you arrive?"
"I just arrived. Dinner is ready. I've come to call you for dinner." Gu Qian pulled Qiu Yan over and they went to the kitchen together.
He saw that Qiu Yan was sleeping soundly and couldn't bear to disturb her.
In the kitchen, at the large dining table, only Gu Qian and Qiu Yan were present.
But for Gu Qian, this was incredibly satisfying.
Normally, Gu Qian would be the only one at the entire dining table.
He didn't feel lonely, but now that Qiu Yan was by his side, he realized that his days in the manor before were really boring.
"Yan Yan, is this food to your liking?"
As Gu Qian spoke, he placed a piece of fish on Qiu Yan's plate.
"Mmm, it's delicious." Because of the journey and because the food at the inn didn't suit her taste, Qiu Yan finally settled down. She found the food at the General's Mansion to be exceptionally delicious.
Perhaps it's because she likes the people she dine with.
"I think it's not as good as what you make," Gu Qian said, but it was what he really thought.
Without Qiu Yan feeding her, I wonder if Xiao Ran will continue to gain weight.
"If you like my cooking, that's easy." Qiu Yan enjoys doing business, staying healthy, and has another hobby: she loves good food.
"I like it, but I'm afraid it will tire you out." Gu Qian likes everything Qiu Yan cooks or makes.
"Cooking a meal can tire me out?" Is she that weak?
Qiu Yan prefers to be self-reliant in everything she does. She considers herself strong and dislikes feeling weak.
Gu Qian smiled and changed the subject, "If you change my name, you can teach me to cook, and I'll cook for you."
After dinner, Qiu Yan, who had slept all afternoon, felt no sleepiness whatsoever.
Gu Qian accompanied her, and they practiced martial arts together at the training ground.
Ling Qi and the other two stood guard to the side and practiced swordsmanship along with them.
The entire general's mansion was filled with the clanging sound of clashing blades.
This place is increasingly resembling a military camp.
Around 7 PM, Qiu Yan finished her ritual, said goodbye to Gu Qian, and prepared to return to her courtyard.
Gu Qian saw Bai Lu following closely behind and stopped her in her tracks. "Stop!"
Bai Lu looked directly at Gu Qian and asked calmly, "General, what are your orders?"
"You'd better behave yourself. If you do anything to harm Yan Yan, I will make you wish you were dead!" Gu Qian would never let his guard down against Bai Lu, no matter what.
