Gu Xiaoran blinked her bright eyes, tilted her head to the side, and picked at her hair with her little hands, as if she was thinking.
"Mother?" Du Changjun was completely dumbfounded. Could it be that Qiu Yan was already married? But how come he had never heard Qiu Dazhi mention it?
Du Changjun: "Qiu Yan, how old are you?"
Qiu Yan: No comment!
Du Changjun's lips twitched slightly after being rejected.
Suddenly, he laughed and said, "Oh, I know! This child must be this man's illegitimate son."
Inside the room, Ling Qi and Ling Ba had been holding back their laughter the whole time, but upon hearing this, they could no longer help themselves and burst out laughing.
"If you dare to speak nonsense again, you'll lose your life!" Gu Qian's face darkened, and he stepped forward and grabbed Du Changjun by the collar.
"Let go!" Du Changjun trembled twice.
Yesterday's scene... has repeated itself.
This time, Gu Qian threw him directly in front of Xingyue Tower, attracting a crowd of onlookers.
Qiu Dayu followed closely behind, silently praising Gu Qian's extraordinary physical strength.
Qiu Yan's niece's husband is truly skilled; even a dozen strong men couldn't get close to him.
In front of Xingyue Gate, Du Changjun was thrown around by Gu Qian, looking extremely disheveled.
He struggled to look up at the pedestrians around him, his face flushed red to the roots of his neck.
I don't know if it's from anger or pain.
"You just wait!" He glared fiercely at Gu Qian's departing figure, feeling that revenge was futile and he could only vent his anger verbally.
Seeing Qiu Dayu and the others mocking his plight, Du Changjun's handsome face contorted with rage. Unable to get up, he could only turn to Qiu Dayu for help, "Hurry up and pull me up."
Qiu Dayu sighed, "Of all the people you could have offended, you had to offend Xiaoyan."
After breakfast, Qiu Yan began packing her luggage, preparing to return to the village.
While packing, she felt she needed to go to Baiyang Street again to buy some cotton fabric.
She's not good at needlework, and Aunt Ye has just given birth to twins and has no time to help her. So who should she ask to help her make a few quilts?
Qiu Yan was troubled.
Just then, Gu Qian knocked on the door and entered. "Yan Yan, are you all ready? Let's go to the market together."
The two shared the same idea.
"It'll be ready soon." Qiu Yan looked at Gu Qian, who had suddenly appeared in her room, and thought to herself, "This man is definitely from ancient times. Doesn't he know what it means to distinguish between men and women?"
Gu Qian had never seen Qiu Yan like this before. Thinking about the sweet times they would spend together in the future, he couldn't help but interrupt her actions, pull her to a corner behind the door, and embrace her.
Qiu Yan suddenly stopped moving. "Stop fooling around. Can't you see I'm busy?"
Gu Qian: "Yan Yan, after the New Year, you'll be a year older."
Qiu Yan was puzzled when she saw Gu Qian's face turn serious.
"so what?"
"Shouldn't we get married?"
Gu Qian finally spoke his mind after holding it in all night, and he was no longer willing to wait the two years that had been promised.
He was genuinely afraid that while he was away, other men would relentlessly pursue Qiu Yan.
He already has a mansion in Shangjin City, and it's under construction in Baiyang City; the betrothal gifts aren't a problem either; now, all he lacks is a young lady.
Now, Gu Qian is just waiting for Qiu Yan to agree to marry him, so he can immediately propose marriage.
He would only feel at ease if he could marry the young lady as soon as possible.
"Uh..." Qiu Yan knew that this man was jealous.
She was wondering how to dispel the man's doubts.
Didn't she make that very clear yesterday?
Unexpectedly, Gu Qian interpreted her pause in a different light.
Gu Qian recalled their time together. Since Qiu Yan didn't reject his contact, why did she hesitate and refuse?
"Yan Yan." Gu Qian gripped Qiu Yan's small hand tightly, his voice a little hoarse. "Don't you want to marry me?"
