Gu Liyan didn't refuse directly, but looked at Yan Muxue. Yan Muxue glared back and said irritably, "What are you looking at me for? If you want to change rooms, then change them!"
Want to change rooms?
That's absolutely impossible!
Gu Liyan had finally waited for his beloved to appear, how could he let go of even a second of their tender moment! So when Gu Liyan heard the displeasure in Yan Muxue's tone, he immediately waved his hand and refused, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Aunt Hua, but there's no need to reassign me. I'm not used to living alone..."
Before Gu Liyan could finish speaking, Feng Huaxian's voice came from the second floor, "Since that's the case, why don't you come to my place, Young Master Mo? My bed is big and soft, absolutely comfortable!" After saying that, Feng Huaxian walked downstairs with a smile.
Upon hearing Feng Huaxian's words, Yan Muxue immediately retorted angrily, "Isn't it crowded for you and the Prince of Yan to share a bed?!"
Feng Huaxian sneered, "If the Prince of Yan doesn't mind, I can't object!"
"You, Xiao Li, look at her..." Yan Muxue stomped her feet in anger, wanting Gu Liyan to speak up for her, but saw Gu Liyan standing there stunned.
Just as Gu Liyan was looking in the direction Feng Huaxian was going downstairs, he inadvertently spotted Ping'er behind her. His eyes widened in surprise; he hadn't expected to see her, once both friend and foe, here!
Feng Huaxian and Xiao Cui arrived in front of Gu Liyan in a few steps. Just as she was about to speak, she noticed that Gu Liyan was still looking up at the direction of the second floor.
Following Gu Liyan's gaze, Feng Huaxian saw that Ping'er was also looking at him with the same expression. Seeing the two of them staring at each other, Feng Huaxian asked with a suspicious look, "Young Master Mo, do you know Ping'er? It seems like you two... have a warm exchange like old friends meeting in a foreign land?"
Upon hearing Feng Huaxian's words, Yan Muxue immediately tensed up and looked at Ping'er, fearing that she might nod in agreement.
"Sister Xian'er, you're overthinking it. How could I possibly know such a handsome young man?" Ping'er denied it directly, smiling as she looked at Gu Liyan and said, "However, if I could get to know such a handsome young man, I would have hidden him away long ago! I wouldn't let him reveal his true face, lest someone with ill intentions spy on him!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Muxue felt a pang of regret and couldn't help but feel annoyed: "If only I hadn't let Xiao Li reveal her true form! Then Feng Huaxian and the others wouldn't have seen her..."
Yan Muxue looked at Gu Liyan nervously, afraid that he would glance at any woman other than herself.
Gu Liyan pursed his lips and said, "Your name is Ping'er? You're right. If I had a younger sister as cute as you, I wouldn't let her work here."
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, Ping'er subconsciously narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Unfortunately, we don't know each other."
“Yes…” Gu Liyan took a deep breath and nodded.
Gu Liyan didn't want to continue this topic with Ping'er. Instead, he turned to Yan Muxue, whose face had darkened, and said, "Xue'er, it's getting late. Let's go back and rest."
Hearing Gu Liyan's words, Yan Muxue's tense expression eased, and she nodded and said, "Okay."
However, after thinking for a moment, she stepped forward and tightly took Gu Liyan's arm.
Gu Liyan glanced at Yan Muxue and smiled slightly, patting her hand as if to reassure her. Yan Muxue immediately beamed with joy, all her lingering emotions vanishing.
As the two walked upstairs, Yan Muxue deliberately snorted coldly as she passed Feng Huaxian, as if to say: My man, you can't take him away even if you try!
Gu Liyan brushed past Ping'er, and suddenly Ping'er's voice echoed in his mind, "They will go to Qianjue Mountain at Chenshi tomorrow!"
Gu Liyan was slightly taken aback and looked at Ping'er with a surprised expression. The latter just smiled and didn't say anything.
"Xiao Li!" Yan Muxue called out in an annoyed tone when she saw Gu Liyan staring at Ping'er.
Gu Liyan snapped out of her daze and said, "Let's go in."
The two entered the room, and Yan Muxue slammed the door shut behind them...
"That brat, who's she giving that attitude to?" Xiao Cui said irritably. She was feeling frustrated and wanted to vent after being turned away by Wang Guozhong.
"Forget it, Xiao Cui, why bother arguing with her?" Feng Huaxian sneered.
He turned to Hua Gu and said, "Hua Gu, tomorrow I will be taking Ping'er and Xiao Cui with Prince Yan to climb the mountain and go sightseeing. Please grant us a day off."
Hua Gu's eyes widened, and she cried out in distress, "Oh dear, what's going on? Why are you all asking for leave!"
"Besides us, is anyone else asking for leave?" Feng Huaxian asked, puzzled.
"Who else could it be? It's that girl Yan Muxue, of course!" Aunt Hua plopped down in a chair and said irritably, "Go, go! All of you, go! This business is impossible to conduct!"
"Hua Gu is only taking a few days off, I will still be back," Feng Hua Xian said awkwardly.
Hearing Feng Huaxian say this, Hua Gu's expression softened. "Alright then, I'll take a break for the next few days to reorganize."
"I definitely won't let both of you take leave at the same time next time!" Hua Gu said irritably.
Little did they know, this was also the last time Feng Huaxian and Yan Muxue would ask for leave...
In Yan Muxue's room, Gu Liyan sat at the table with a worried expression, recalling what Ping'er had just said, and felt a vague unease in his heart.
Seeing Gu Liyan's worried expression, Yan Muxue became even more irritated and smashed the cup. "Go to sleep!" she said, then lay down on the bed.
Yan Muxue tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep for a long time. She sat up and saw Gu Liyan still sitting there in a daze. She pouted and asked, "Gu Liyan! Do you like that girl Ping'er?"
Gu Liyan snapped out of his daze, not having heard what Yan Muxue said, and asked, "Huh? What did you just say?"
