Wei Min laughed angrily, "Just think of it as you praising me."
Gu Yun hummed and said, "Let's go. I'll take you back."
Wei Min was suddenly delighted and looked at Gu Yun in disbelief for a while, "Really?"
Gu Yun nodded and urged, "If you don't leave now, I will regret it."
Wei Min pursed her lips and couldn't help smiling. She walked forward quickly, almost taking small steps.
Gu Yun followed behind her, and Wei Min pretended to look back at him casually from time to time. Seeing that Gu Yun was always one step behind her without any hurry, Wei Min felt a little sweet in her heart. She even began to pay attention to her walking posture. Her steps became a little awkward, as if she suddenly became so clumsy that she couldn't walk anymore.
The two of them arrived at Wei's house one after the other. Wei Min felt a little reluctant to leave. Obviously, there was a long distance from Wanfu Bridge to her home, but today she felt the distance was particularly short, as they arrived in just half an hour.
She stopped and turned to look at Gu Yun, and said awkwardly, "I'll ask the carriage in the mansion to take you back to Annan Marquis's Mansion."
Gu Yun raised his hand, "No need, I have to go out of town for something."
"Leave the city?" Wei Min asked, "But you drank too much. Why do you have to leave Beijing?"
Wei Min almost subconsciously thought that Gu Yun left Beijing because Yu Jiao was getting married.
Gu Yun naturally would not tell Wei Min about his whereabouts in Lingnan. Moreover, he did not think Wei Min was qualified to ask about his itinerary, so he just said, "Let's go."
Wei Min had no choice but to watch Gu Yun leave. Her expression became somewhat lonely. She could see that Gu Yun treated her very distantly.
Wei Min stood outside the gate for a while, then suddenly turned to the gatekeeper and said, "Prepare my horse. How much money do you have?"
The doorman was confused and took out a purse from his sleeve. "I only have three or four taels of silver here."
Wei Min took the money bag from the servant and said, "Lend me this silver first. Go and get the horse. Then come back to my courtyard and explain the reason to the maids. Ask them to pay you back."
Wei Min had run away from home before, so the doorman was a little worried and asked, "What is the lady going to do with the horse?"
"Send something to Young Marquis Gu. You saw him sending me back just now." Wei Min urged, "Go quickly."
The gatekeeper's servant then hurried to the stable to get the horse. Wei Min climbed on the horse, whipped it, and said to the servant, "Tell my father that I'm going out of town for a while."
The servant was very anxious upon hearing the noise and wanted to step forward to stop him, but Wei Min had already ridden away.
After exiting the alley, Wei Min controlled her horse and galloped straight towards the city gate. She looked ahead and inexplicably mustered up endless courage. Everyone must be brave at least once in their life.
This time, if Gu Yun remains unmoved, then she will have no regrets in the future.

The flower hall of the Yu Mansion was full of guests. Even with Lu Jin's help, Yu Qizhe, the groom, was still forced to drink a lot of wine. There were also Jinshi who were on the same list as Yu Qizhe at the table. They all looked at Yu Qizhe with envy as he was surrounded by the crowd.
Someone drank too much and sighed in a low voice: "Same person, different fate."
The person next to him took a closer look and recognized that this person was Song Ziqian, the second place in the Serie A, and whispered, "I heard that if it weren't for Governor Cheng, Song would have been the top scorer in the first place."
Someone else took over the conversation, "No wonder Cheng Dugong appreciates him so much, it turns out that he is his adopted son-in-law, so he is different from others."
What shocked everyone the most today was Cheng Ying appearing on the altar when paying respects to parents. Yu Qizhe even asked someone to add a chair for Cheng Ying in public.
This top scholar who came from a poor family, had the Qingliu Second Assistant as his teacher, and had a close relationship with Cheng Dugong. He was truly able to get along well with both the court and the public. How could he not arouse admiration and envy!
