Chapter 19 If you like someone, say it out loud
Just as he was talking, Donghua came in with a big lunch box in her hand, and she shouted loudly, "Girl, lunch is here."
"You must be starving."
Zhou Zhilan pulled her to the eight-immortals table in the outer room and pressed her down on the chair.
Donghua took out six dishes, one soup and two snacks from the food box.
The dish is light and delicate, and the soup is a thick medicinal chicken soup.
Gu Huan pulled Zhou Zhilan to sit down.
She was not polite: "I just came here to have dinner with you."
Gu Huan originally wanted to pay a visit to the old lady, but since they lived next door, it would be inappropriate not to go and say hello.
Moreover, Mu Junyan is a filial son, and it would be helpful for her to conquer him if she could please the old lady.
But then I thought, I'm sick and it would be bad if I pass it on to the old lady.
Any idea to show respect without showing up?
Zhou Zhilan knocked the table with the tip of her chopsticks: "I told you not to worry about anything while you're eating. If you have anything to worry about, you'll have the energy to think about it after you're full."
Gu Huan raised her eyebrows, smiled, and obediently concentrated on eating.
After they finished lunch, Zhou Zhilan took out two small storybooks like a magician and shook them with a smile: "Fresh out of the oven, so exciting."
Gu Huan was also in a particularly good mood.
The sun was shining outside and the air was especially fresh after the rain. Gu Huan took Zhou Zhilan's arm and sat under a tree in the small courtyard, drinking lily and lotus seed milk soup while reading a short storybook.
The warm sun's rays outline the girl's graceful figure.
The girl lowered her head, revealing her graceful swan neck and skin whiter than snow.
Her black hair is tied up at one side, held up with just a chopstick, like a light watercolor painting of a beauty.
A breeze blew, and the half-yellow-green ginkgo leaves fell like snowflakes, landing on the head, shoulders, and body of the girl in the white dress, and then slowly slid down her shoulders to the ground.
Mu Junyan happened to see this scene when he came in.
Gu Huan sensed a powerful aura of coercion approaching, and her fingers holding the little notebook tightened slightly.
He straightened his waist instantly, pretended to be calm, and continued reading.
Zhou Zhilan looked up, jumped up in fright, and thought to herself that she was doomed.
Subconsciously, he threw the little storybook in his hand into Gu Huan's arms and greeted him with a smile: "Master, you are here."
Mu Junyan glanced at her and asked, "Where did you get the book?"
"That... that... is, is that Miss Gu feels bored..."
Zhou Zhilan hesitated.
If the master knew that the storybooks she found were full of melodramatic love stories, he would definitely scold her.
Gu Huan stood up stupidly, holding two books. Her beautiful eyes looked pitiful and innocent. She opened her mouth, but no sound came out.
She imagined in her mind how he had given her the energy she needed last night.
Mu Junyan walked slowly closer and looked at the pale-faced girl: "Your throat still can't speak?"
Gu Huan nodded, as if realizing that she was being rude, and quickly bowed.
Unexpectedly, the man was standing so close to her that when she bent her waist, her head got stuck in his chest.
She was so embarrassed that she quickly took a step back, her little face flushed red, she held the little notebook tightly in her arms, and lowered her little head in fear.
Mu Junyan glanced at the title of the first book in her arms.
“……!”
Mu Junyan's face darkened.
The delicate young lady falls in love with the rough general?
What a mess!
Are these little stories that poison little girls the ones they should read?
Zhou Zhilan laughed and took the little book from Gu Huan's arms with one hand, and pushed Gu Huan towards Mu Junyan with the other hand.
"Miss Gu just went to the master to express her gratitude."
Gu Huan cried out softly as she was pushed unexpectedly. She lost her balance and subconsciously reached out to press the solid chest in front of her. Her face turned pale and she quickly retracted her hand.
The muscular man was as tall as a mountain, and her head just reached his chest.
She glanced at the man nervously and suddenly met the cold eyes looking down at her.
She was so scared that her eyes darted around, not knowing where to look, and she dared not move.
Seeing that she was too nervous, Mu Junyan softened his tone: "You don't have to think about anything. Living here, no one dares to touch you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Huan looked up and glanced at the frightened expression of the little rabbit. Her beautiful eyes were filled with admiration and love. She was moved and smiled and nodded.
Mu Junyan actually had a strange feeling as if he was being revered as a god.
The look in her eyes was different from the people's admiration for him.
She treated him as her savior, the only person she could rely on, but she was also very cautious, fearing that she would make him angry.
Poor, like a abused kitten.
So pitiful.
Mu Junyan's heart sank.
"Take a good rest."
Mu Junyan couldn't stay any longer. He always felt like a scumbag who bullied others and didn't want to take responsibility.
Gu Huan stared blankly at the receding figure, tears welling up in her eyes, her disappointment and sadness evident in her words.
Zhou Zhilan leaned closer to look at her, then looked at her master's back, and suddenly realized.
He whispered in her ear, "Do you like the Master?"
Gu Huan hurriedly raised her hands and shook her head like a rattle.
Zhou Zhilan glared and raised her eyebrows: "If you like it, you should say it out loud..."
Gu Huan was so anxious that she was about to cry. She grabbed her arm and shook her head vigorously.
Zhou Zhilan exclaimed, "You can't speak yet, you can't say it out loud."
Gu Huan wanted to cry but didn't dare to, and her expression of enduring grievance made Zhou Zhilan feel so distressed.
He hugged her shoulders and whispered in her ear: "You are already the master's person, the master will not be irresponsible."
Zhou Zhilan also knows what happened that night?
That's much easier.
She really tried hard to act out the feeling of liking someone but not daring to like them.
Gu Huan widened her eyes in horror and looked around frantically. Dongqing and Donghua had both been sent out, and there was no one around.
He hurriedly pulled Zhou Zhilan into the house, spread out the rice paper, picked up the pen and wrote: I was drunk, you can't blame the master, it has nothing to do with the master, you must not mention this matter to the master, you must not make the master embarrassed.
Zhou Zhilan was speechless.
"I've read so many novels to you, but it was all in vain. You always think about this person and worry about that person. Why don't you think about yourself? If you like someone, just go and conquer him! What are you afraid of?"
Zhou Zhilan raised her arms and clenched her fists to cheer. Gu Huan was almost unable to control her expression.
What a simple and innocent girl.
Are men so easy to conquer?
Especially someone with a deep mind like Mu Junyan.
Gu Huan hesitated for a moment, then picked up the pen and wrote: I am of humble status and unworthy of the master. So, let’s just pretend that what happened that night never happened. We are all drunk, and none of us are sincere, so why should we tie anyone up or implicate anyone?
Zhou Zhilan opened her mouth wide, and sighed helplessly after a long while: "You are really open-minded, you don't care..."
She didn't dare to say the word "innocent".
Gu Huan smiled and quickly picked up the pen: I want to cook a few dishes for my master to thank him for saving me. Can I use the kitchen?
Zhou Zhilan nodded: "Of course, I'll take you there."
After the two men left, Akabane came in quietly, folded up the written paper on the desk and put it in his pocket.
Mu Junyan sat in front of the desk, looking at the pleasing small calligraphy with hairpin flowers, but the content was annoying.
If he doesn't accept her, he will become an evil gangster?
Mu Junyan crumpled the rice paper into a ball in annoyance, turned around and threw it at the guard who had an expression on his face that said his master was a heartless man.
Akabane quickly caught it with his hands.
“It’s burning!”
The little girl is quite open-minded. Shouldn't she come and cry to him to take her in?
Maybe... the little girl didn't want to.
It's really not suitable for him at his age.
Doesn't she have a fiancé?
Then prepare a generous dowry for her.
Mu Junyan squinted his eyes and said, "Your efficiency has been very low recently. Why don't you go back to the northwest and practice as a scout?"
Akabane's heart skipped a beat. He was racking his brains, but which task had not been completed to the master's satisfaction?
Listening to the powerful tapping of fingers, Chiyu exclaimed: "Chiyan will have a letter tonight."
Mu Junyan stopped tapping his fingers: "Get lost."
Akabane walked out of the study room with sweat on his back.
It turns out that the master cares so much about the little girl's trivial matters.
