He is the only one.
"Brother Duan, you have done me a favor." The man was indecisive and torn.
Minglan asked woodenly, "How long will it take?"
"At the fastest, it will take one month, at the slowest, two months." Gu Tingye rubbed her palm, "I have a lot of things to do, so I can't leave. After we get Brother Cheng Yong out, Zhong Dayou will be stationed there. By then, maybe Old Geng will be well again."
Minglan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I thought you'd be gone for a year or two." The salt administration review wouldn't be completed overnight. "So it's only a month or two. So what? As long as the Marquis can return before I give birth, I'll be satisfied."
Regardless of the wrinkles on his official robe, Gu Tingye took her into his arms and rocked her gently. In his heart, he didn't want to leave her even for a moment. He said apologetically, "You're pregnant, I shouldn't have left."
Minglan mustered up her courage, pushed him away, and said seriously, "The Marquis is also a big deal to me. The Marquis's business is my business." She had been mentally prepared for many things. The man in front of her was a fierce and wild leopard, full of energy and blood. How could she possibly keep him tied up all the time? She just had to prevent him from running too far or for too long.
"But..." Gu Tingye tried his best not to think about certain things, but he couldn't help but let his thoughts run wild. He had always been decisive and shrewd, and he always made decisions quickly, but this time he suddenly became hesitant. "If something happens to you and I'm not around, what should I do?"
"My Lord." Minglan knew what he was thinking. She pushed his broad shoulders and said seriously, "I am not the Madam Qin."
Gu Tingye was still hesitant. Minglan took a deep breath and said, "Just leave some manpower behind, my lord. If someone comes to bully me, I can beat them out even if I can't argue. If something goes wrong, I can just run away." Gu Tingye couldn't help laughing.
Minglan leaned in his arms, her eyes wide open, her voice clear and cheerful: "Unless the Marquis wants to retire, there will always be many errands to do. Can't he always stay with me? In the future, we still have children..." Her face turned red, but she couldn't continue.
Gu Tingye felt sweet in his heart: "Yes, we will have many children in the future."
Minglan was so shy that she arched her back to his neck and started nibbling it like a puppy. Gu Tingye laughed and bit back in return, kissing Minglan's neck all over.
After a while, the two of them stopped laughing and joking. Gu Tingye rested his head on Minglan's legs and suddenly said, "You really don't look like that Madam Qin."
He suddenly turned over and sat facing each other, "If I had to marry another woman, what would you do?" This question had been lingering in his mind for a long time.
Minglan was stunned and laughed foolishly, "How could that be?"
"You will remarry." The man looked at Minglan steadily, his tone very firm.
"...How could it be...?" Minglan pretended to be dumb, but she felt in her heart that this was quite possible.
The memory of his father's past always loomed over him, and he couldn't help comparing himself to him. The comparison was quite depressing. Although he tried hard not to think about the word "remarry", based on his understanding of Minglan over the past few months, if something irresistible really happened and caused the couple to separate, the damn girl would at most be sad for three or five days, and then nine out of ten would find another man to marry.
"Besides, you will probably have a good life." He gritted his teeth.
"How... could it be...?" How did the topic turn to this? Minglan continued to smile awkwardly.
Gu Tingye's eyes were gloomy, which made Minglan feel creepy. She felt something was wrong and asked hurriedly, "What about the Marquis? Are you really going to abandon me?" The best defense is indeed offense.
"..." Gu Tingye actually thought about it seriously, "I will probably take two paths. Either take you and hide to the ends of the earth, and live in anonymity for the rest of my life; or, after I recover, I will marry you again." By the way, he chopped off the adulterer.
Minglan almost blurted out "The second way is better", peace and harmony, and peace in the world; fortunately her sixth sense, which had been slacking for many years, broke out in time.
She snuggled into Gu Tingye's arms, wrapped her arms around his waist with difficulty, and whispered, "Carry me on your back, even to the deep mountains and old forests, I will be your wild husband." Her voice was full of tenderness, so soft that it was almost inaudible. Gu Tingye's heart softened instantly, and he hugged her tightly, kissing her temples and cheeks non-stop, "Even in the underworld, we will not be separated."
