"Those things?" Rong Sheng frowned, looking at Gu Beiyi who was so close to her with a puzzled expression. What were those things? What kind of riddle was the old gambler playing?
Ugh, so annoying! Why did they have to hide in the closet? It prevents her from seeing Du Qincai and Gu Changqing's facial expressions.
This is really frustrating!!
Because she was pondering the old gambler's words, she didn't notice how close she was to Gu Beiyi, nor did she notice how affectionate yet strange Gu Beiyi's gaze was towards her, eerily gleaming with a wolfish light, as if he had been starving for a long time.
The old gambler lay contentedly on the kang (a heated brick bed) waiting for his meal. Du Shi and Gu Changqing didn't want to see him, and besides, there were still chores to be done at home, so they went out to work.
Du Qincai was very generous this time, taking out a piece of meat from the house and having Chai and Hui cook it for the old gambler.
Chai and Hui were very puzzled by Du Qincai's behavior, but Du Qincai would never explain it to them and would only yell and curse at them, so the sisters-in-law silently cooked.
The room was very quiet. Rong Sheng was getting a little impatient. She gently pushed open the wardrobe door and peeked outside through the crack.
As a result, they saw Du Qincai standing at the door of the east wing, glaring fiercely at the old gambler who was lying on the kang sleeping like a dead pig.
Her eyes were filled with murderous intent. If murder didn't come with a death penalty, Rong Sheng estimated that the old gambler wouldn't be able to leave the Gu family alive.
Even so, the old gambler's days will definitely not be easy in the future. Du Qincai is clearly not a good person!
But that old gambler, oblivious to his own mortality, provoked Du Qincai!
Seeing Rong Sheng intently watching the outside world, Gu Beiyi's lips curled into a wicked smile. The closed wardrobe, the dim lighting, and the faint, ambiguous atmosphere in the air all told Gu Beiyi that this was a perfect place for him to have a deep conversation with Rong Sheng.
With the right timing, location, and people, Gu Beiyi is a man who is good at seizing opportunities. How could he let this opportunity slip by so easily?
His large, well-defined hand slowly wrapped around Rong Sheng's waist, and his handsome face leaned closer to her.
The hot breath hit Rong Sheng's face, causing her to stiffen. She silently turned her head to look at Gu Beiyi, asking in a silent voice, "What are you trying to do?"
The current environment did not allow him to speak, so he continued to move closer to Rong Sheng until they were only three millimeters apart before stopping.
Rong Sheng was so frightened by Gu Beiyi's actions that she almost forgot to breathe, her eyes radiating accusations.
Hey! My future husband, what are you doing? We came to the Gu family to hear what the old gambler and Gu Changqing have to say. Why have the Gu family suddenly become so obedient? And why is the old gambler targeting Gu Changqing? Why is Du Qincai being so insincere with the old gambler? What kind of riddle are they playing?
Instead of hiding in Gu Jia's closet and engaging in... ambiguous relationships!
ambiguous?!!
Rong Sheng's eyes suddenly widened in surprise. The next moment, she felt her heart pounding erratically, which made her blush.
Especially when she saw Gu Beiyi's deep black eyes staring at her intently, she clearly sensed the affection from her future husband.
In an instant, Rong Sheng felt that even breathing had become difficult.
What to do? What to do?
Rong Sheng was very flustered, fearing that her future husband would lose control and do something to her.
System: "Host, your breathing is erratic. Control it quickly, or you'll attract the attention of the old gambler and the Gu family. Then you two... will be finished!"
Rong Sheng quickly tried to adjust her breathing, but the more she tried, the more difficult it became, making her increasingly panicked.
"System, quickly help me cover this up!" Rong Sheng knew that the system would not cover for her in this kind of situation, but she said, "System, if the Gu family or the old gambler finds out, I am very likely to be beaten to the ground by the Gu family. You know the old gambler hates me to death."
Besides, my future husband is here, and the Gu family hates Gu Sanniu terribly. We might not be able to leave the Gu family alive! So you must help me hide! I haven't yet discovered any of the old gambler's or the Gu family's secrets. So you must help me conceal this!"
System: "Host, as long as you control it well, you don't need me to help you hide it!"
"But my future husband is flirting with me, and I can't control myself!" Rong Sheng said matter-of-factly. "Now I have a lot of medical ethics points. Although I can't satisfy your appetite, I can still let you hide it a little!"
The system had already said that as long as you have Medical Ethics Points, it will help you with some small things within your ability!
Concealing their presence and whereabouts is a minor matter!
The system was speechless, but still helped Rong Sheng hide it. It couldn't let that fool Rong Sheng ruin someone's plan, could it? That plan was already half successful.
With the system's help to cover her up, Rong Sheng slowly reached out and pushed Gu Beiyi, but she couldn't move him. Instead, Gu Beiyi grabbed her and held her tightly in his arms.
'What are you doing? Let go of me!'
"Gu Sanniu, are you crazy! This is the Gu family home, not some desolate wilderness!"
'Don't touch me, behave yourself, or someone will find out.'
However, the person remained unmoved, and his gaze toward Rong Sheng became increasingly intense. His two large hands began to act annoyingly, leaving Rong Sheng helpless but not daring to resist openly. Even with the system helping to cover it up, it couldn't stop them from disobeying!
So Rong Sheng gritted her teeth, her dark eyes flashing with an evil light, and slowly wrapped her arms around Gu Beiyi's strong waist, pinching it hard.
