Zheng Qiu glanced at the two of them feeding each other with a puzzled look, then turned around and ate her own food.
She was in a good mood right now and didn't want to think about it anymore.
After the three finished eating, they sat and chatted for a while. Gu Xin and Lu Zheng then used the excuse of taking a walk to send Zheng Qiu home.
When they arrived at Zheng Qiu's house, Zheng Qiu went inside and called out to Gu Xin as she closed the door: "Xin Xin."
Gu Xin stopped and turned around: "What's wrong?"
Zheng Qiu shook her head and smiled, "It's okay, I'll come find you tomorrow, let's go meet my brother together!"
Gu Xin blinked: "Didn't we just agree on this? What? Are you afraid I've forgotten?"
Zheng Qiu nodded: "Yes, just in case you forgot, so I'm reminding you again."
Gu Xin rolled her eyes at her: "Hmph, I have a very good memory! Let's go! You should go back and rest too! Remember to lock the door!"
Zheng Qiu smiled and waved: "Okay, see you tomorrow, Xin Xin, General Lu!"
Only after the two figures were out of sight did Zheng Qiu close the door and turn back into the house.
She actually wanted to ask Gu En, but she swallowed the words back. What did she want to ask Gu En?
Ask Gu En if he's ready? How could he not be ready? He's a student personally taught by Master Gu. Anyone else might not be ready, but he can't be.
She hadn't seen Gu En for over half a month. Today was the first day of the imperial examination. In the morning, while at the Yong'an Marquis's residence, she heard servants outside preparing things for Zheng Sanlang. Zheng Sanlang was going to take the exam, and the Yong'an Marquis's entourage was quite grand. So, Zheng Qiu thought of Gu En, who was also taking the exam today.
To emphasize her image as a loving mother, Madam He doted on Zheng Qilang. Whatever Zheng Sanlang had, Zheng Qilang would have more, not less. As a result, the two lived very close to each other, which is why Zheng Qiu could hear the considerable commotion from Zheng Sanlang's side.
In particular, Zheng Wei brought her own child to see her uncle off at the exam. The child kept crying and crying. In fact, everyone in the Yong'an Marquis's mansion came before dawn to encourage the examinee.
After washing up, Zheng Qiu lay in bed. She hadn't slept much last night, staying by Zheng Qilang's side the whole time, and hadn't rested during the day either. She was actually quite tired now, but for some reason, she couldn't fall asleep.
She thought about the question she hadn't asked, and she felt a little strange.
During this time, apart from her brothers' affairs, she spent her time running around the mortuary and reading books and looking at models at home, basically not wanting to care about other people or things.
Why did she suddenly think of Gu En today?
Also, Gu En has been burying himself in his studies at home for a month and hasn't come to see her once.
Even though you know he was doing something important, it's still a little disheartening when someone who used to appear in front of you suddenly disappears.
Zheng Qiu didn't think there was anything wrong with feeling lost after not seeing Gu En for almost a month; she didn't think she was slow to react or oblivious.
Zheng Qiu sighed silently. Gu En was doing the right thing. If he kept coming to see her without knowing she was a girl, there would be more gossip than if she were a girl.
She silently prayed in her heart that Gu En would become the top scholar in the imperial examination and achieve his ideal results.
Then I stopped thinking about it and closed my eyes to rest.
However, she had a strange dream that night.
