"He's quite handsome, but what do you mean by breaking into my house at night? What do you want to do?"
Gu Siyu frowned when he heard this, "Don't you remember me?"
His voice was a little hoarse, but it sounded quite nice.
"Hmm? I'm supposed to know you?"
Ying Xixi pinched Gu Siyu's jaw and looked at him carefully, "Come to think of it, your face seems a little familiar. I think I've seen it somewhere before, but I forgot.
But that's not important. What are you doing coming to my room in the middle of the night?!
If you don't explain clearly, you won't be able to leave tonight. I'll send someone to take you to see the official tomorrow morning!"
Gu Siyu: “…”
"Let me go first."
"No, you should introduce yourself first and make your words clear."
Ying Xixi let go of the man's jaw, touched his fair cheek, stood up and sat on the chair.
Gu Siyu: “….”
Gu Siyu's hands and feet were tied up, but his body could still move.
He moved and sat up, looking up at Ying Xixi who was sitting on the chair and looking down at him.
"Sister-in-law, do you really not remember me?"
Gu Siyu's voice was low and hoarse, and calling her sister-in-law was really tempting.
Ying Xixi got goosebumps.
She rubbed her arms and said, "I remember Lin Weiyi didn't have many brothers."
"Sister-in-law, please think again. Did you see me at Marquis Wu'an's funeral eight years ago?"
Ying Xixi stared at Gu Si and this face, recalling what happened eight years ago in the original plot, and gradually remembered.
"You are... the prince of the Yong'an Marquis's mansion? But I remember you were in poor health, weren't you?
Is he so ill that he needs a wheelchair, or are the rumors wrong?"
Ying Xixi looked Gu Siyu up and down. He didn't look like he was in poor health at all.
"It's great that sister-in-law still remembers me. Maybe the rumor is wrong. I am still in good health.
But now, there may be something wrong with my body.
"Sister-in-law, I was injured by your kick just now. Please be responsible for me."
As Gu Siyu said this, he leaned over and rested his handsome face on Ying Xixi's knees, looking up at her.
It was the first time that Ying Xixi had seen such a scene. She silently retracted her feet and avoided Gu Si and his approaching head.
Without saying too much, she felt that Gu Si's action, expression and eyes... were like he was seducing her.
“As a widow, I’m afraid I can’t be responsible for Master Gu.
Besides, if Prince Gu hadn’t come to my room in the middle of the night, I wouldn’t have mistaken him for an assassin.
No matter what, I shouldn't be held responsible for Prince Gu.
I don't know why Prince Gu came to my house. Anyway, if Prince Gu wants to talk about serious matters, please hand in your visiting card first and then come to my house. Don't come in the middle of the night.
Prince Gu, please go back."
After Ying Xixi said this, she stood up, picked up Gu Si and the hemp rope behind him, and asked him to stand up as well.
After Ying Xixi stuffed Gu Si's face mask and human skin mask into his arms, she pushed him to the window and untied the hemp rope on his feet.
"Please leave, Master Gu. I will untie the rope on your hands after you leave."
Gu Si touched his tongue to his cheek, "Sister-in-law, do you really not want to be responsible for me? Sister-in-law, do you really not want to know why I came here in the middle of the night?"
"It's not important whether you want to know or not. As for taking responsibility, I've made it very clear just now. This isn't my responsibility. Prince Gu, please leave.
I guess Prince Gu wouldn't want to be discovered sneaking into a widow's house at night, otherwise his reputation would be easily ruined."
Ying Xixi reached out and pushed Gu Siyu on the back, forcing him to jump out of the window.
Gu Si and Ying Xixi laughed out of anger.
He turned his head, and his deep, red eyes stared at Ying Xixi meaningfully.
"So what if I'm discovered? I'm not afraid of being discovered. It's my sister-in-law who's afraid of being discovered, right?"
Ying Xixi felt creepy when she was stared at by Gu Si and his aggressive eyes.
She reached out and pushed Gu Siyu again, making him turn his back to her.
“I’m a widow, so what if I’m discovered?
If Prince Gu is discovered, the reputation of your Yong'an Marquis's Mansion will be dragged down by you.
Also, Master Gu doesn’t have to call me sister-in-law, just call me Madam Lin.
Prince Gu, please leave."
After Ying Xixi finished speaking, she quickly untied the rope for Gu Siyu, pulled the rope away and put it back into the space, then immediately closed the window.
The series of actions went smoothly, and when Gu Si turned his head, all he saw was the tightly closed window.
“.......”
Gu Si looked up at the moon hanging high in the night sky and felt that he and the moon were as desolate.
He looked at the closed window again, took out the human skin mask and face scarf from his arms and put them on before leaving.
Ying Xixi was woken up in the middle of the night and now she couldn't fall asleep.
She simply recalled the original plot carefully again.
However, there is not much introduction about the character of Yong'an Hou Shizi in the original plot.
This Prince Gu and Lin Weiyi were close friends, so Prince Gu and the original owner probably had not met each other much before.
The only time I saw him was at Lin Weiyi's funeral.
It is said that Prince Gu is in poor health and is very weak. Both the doctors and the imperial physicians in the palace have asserted that he will not live beyond the age of thirty.
Prince Gu should be twenty-six years old this year.
Then he won’t live for many years.
But just looking at Prince Gu's expression and skills just now, he doesn't look like a weak person who won't live for many years.
Either the rumor is false, or it was Prince Gu who spread the rumor himself.
After all, the status of the Yong'an Marquisate and the Wu'an Marquisate in the capital has risen rapidly, and the emperor is very wary of them.
With the death of Lin Weiyi, Marquis of Wu'an, in battle, most of the threats to the emperor were eliminated.
The prince of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion is in poor health, so the threat he poses is also greatly reduced.
Ying Xixi thought about it and figured it out.
I just don’t know what happened after the original owner’s soul left in the original plot.
If she knew that, it would at least be possible to verify whether her thoughts and guesses were correct.
After thinking about it, Ying Xixi opened the dialog box with the system.
"System? System, are you there?"
[Host, please tell me if you have anything to say. The system is in hibernation and is now in self-service mode.]
"I want to see the complete original plot, including what happened after the original owner's soul left."
[Okay, retrieving the original plot memory.]
As the mechanical sound rang out, scenes from the original plot appeared in Ying Xixi's mind.
After reading it, she felt even more relaxed.
