Chapter 28 Don't Make Me Hate You...
Chen Yuan's legs were too weak to stand and her consciousness began to blur. She pressed her hands tightly against the edge of the well and looked back at Gu Jingchu, whose face was also slightly flushed.
So that's how it is.
He used her as a cover, but accidentally let her be drugged.
Gu Jingchu walked forward and Chen Yuan stepped back. When his hand was about to touch hers, she pushed it away.
"Don't touch me!" Shen Yuan's head was dizzy, and the pulling feeling in her body made her collapse to the extreme. She stared at Gu Jingchu defensively and vigilantly like a hedgehog.
Gu Jingchu was stung by her gaze.
Just as her hand was about to touch the second bucket of water, Gu Jingchu picked her up from behind.
The effects of the medicine made her weak and unable to struggle, and the warmth of their skin against hers made her feel dizzy.
Gu Jingchu held him and walked into the side room.
The door was kicked open by the man, and Shen Yuan was gently placed on the bed by him.
The incense in the house was also spiced.
"...Gu Jingchu...get out." Chen Yuan bit the tip of her tongue with all her strength. The brief pain made her sober up a little.
"Don't make me hate you..."
A trace of pain flashed in Gu Jingchu's eyes. He looked at the person on the bed and undressed expressionlessly, "Yuan'er, you can only marry me."
"Bang!"
The door was kicked open.
"Get out!" Gu Jingchu was furious! Turning around, he met a pair of dark eyes that were so cold that it was impossible to tell whether they were happy or angry.
Gu Huailing didn't say anything, but just one glance from him made Gu Jingchu feel frightened.
He walked forward quickly, picked up Shen Yuan and wrapped her tightly in his cloak. The moment he stepped out of the room, he said coldly, "Guard this place well."
The moment Gu Huailing held her in his arms, Chen Yuan suddenly cried out of grievance.
The woman's tears were hot and scorching.
The torture of Shui Mo Leng Xiang almost made her collapse. She could only obey her instinct and throw herself into Gu Huailing's arms. Shen Yuan climbed onto Gu Huailing's neck with both hands and murmured, "My lord, I am in pain."
Gu Huailing held her in his arms and patted her back gently, "A'yuan, be good. Hold on a little longer."
It was so hot, Chen Yuan kept pulling at his robe, and the man's dark eyes were full of heartache.
He looked at the thin layer of sweat on her forehead caused by discomfort.
Finally, he made up his mind and struck the woman unconscious.
The carriage rushed to Huichun Hall at top speed. Inside the third floor, Elder Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead after acupuncture for Shen Yuan. "Master Prime Minister, the medicinal properties have been forced out of the young lady's body, but they are too strong. The young lady has damaged her health this time. I'm afraid she won't wake up until tonight."
Gu Huailing nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
Gu Yao rushed over and looked at Chen Yuan lying on the bed, feeling extremely apologetic. "Brother, I was wrong. If I hadn't taken the initiative to change my sister-in-law's tea, she wouldn't have drunk something dirty."
Sanjiu found out the truth immediately and learned that Shen Yuan's Chinese medicine was a coincidence, and the hostility in his body dissipated a little.
But he also wouldn't allow his A Yuan to be used as bait.
Gu Huailing looked at Gu Yao and said, "Guard your sister-in-law well. Don't let anyone get close to her."
After saying that, he took a deep look at the woman on the bed, then stood up and walked out.
Lin Mansion.
The coming-of-age banquet had long since ended. Lin Wanyin knelt in the front hall, and her father whipped her without mercy. "You rebellious girl, you actually caused such a disaster. If the Prime Minister blames you, I will kill you. You should die early like your mother who died long ago!"
Lin Wanyin's entire back was covered in blood from being beaten. Enduring the pain, she looked up at Lin's father and said, "You've been living off your mother for so long that you don't even know your own surname. Without my mother, you wouldn't be where you are today."
"If you have the guts, beat me to death. I want to see how you're going to explain to my aunt!"
Lin Cui, holding a handkerchief, walked over and tapped her head fiercely, "You jinx, you're not going to be satisfied until you kill your whole family!"
"You rebellious girl have rebelled against heaven. It is only natural for me to teach my children a lesson!" After saying that, he raised his hand and whipped Lin Wanyin hard again.
"Master Lin, stop." A cold and deep voice came.
Lin Wanyin bit her lip and subconsciously lowered her head and huddled together.
Father Lin immediately dropped the whip in his hand, bowed his head and stepped forward to personally show Gu Huailing a seat. "Sir Prime Minister, I have already taught this rebellious girl a lesson for you. If you want her killed or cut into pieces, just say the word and I will deal with her immediately!"
Gu Huailing sat on the main seat and glanced at Lin's father indifferently and coldly, "What do you want to deal with?"
"Of course, we should deal with this rebellious girl."
"The eldest daughter of the Lin family and the young master of the Gu family, Gu Jingchu, are in love with each other. Lord Lin, who are you going to deal with?" A warm voice sounded, and everyone in the room changed their expressions.
Father Lin was the quickest to react. He quickly pushed aside Mrs. Lin Cui and helped Lin Wanyin up. "Your Excellency the Prime Minister is right. I love my daughter dearly, so I only gave her a small punishment."
Lin Wanyin lowered her head and said nothing. This was obviously the result she wanted most, but he couldn't decide for her.
It was like cutting her heart out.
Gu Huailing tapped his fingertips lightly and made the final decision, "If that's the case, someone will come to the Gu Mansion tomorrow to carry Miss Lin into the mansion."
Lin Wanyin's face suddenly turned pale. He actually demoted her to Gu Jingchu's concubine!
"What are you standing there for, kid? Why don't you thank the Prime Minister quickly?" Lin's father was very happy. He didn't care whether Lin Wanyin was his wife or concubine.
The important thing is that Gu Huailing ordered it himself.
After Gu Huailing finished dealing with Lin Wanyin, he got up and went to the backyard.
In the side room, the incense with added ingredients had long been extinguished, and Gu Jingchu had calmed down after such a long time.
I don't know when, Gu Huailing walked in.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely cold.
"Awake?" Gu Huailing looked at Gu Jingchu, and the coldness deep in his eyes was suppressed by him.
A chill spread from the soles of Gu Jingchu's feet. For many years, Gu Huailing was a mountain that he could not cross.
He hated the mountain and was afraid of it.
It felt like someone was pressing down on his chest, and at that moment, Gu Jingchu felt like he was about to suffocate.
Gu Huailing's cool voice rang out, "Tomorrow, Lin Wanyin will become your concubine. What do you think?"
Gu Jingchu looked up at Gu Huailing in disbelief, but was startled by the coldness and cruelty in his eyes.
Could he refuse?
Gu Jingchu glanced at the secret guards guarding outside. If he refused, he might not even be able to leave the room.
His hands drooped weakly, and Gu Jingchu resigned himself to his fate and said, "I'll listen to you, big brother."
Gu Huailing nodded, no longer looking at Gu Jingchu, and strode away.
The moment Gu Huailing disappeared, Gu Jingchu suddenly regretted it again. If he married Lin Wanyin, there would be no possibility for him to be with Chen Yuan.
"Brother!" Gu Jingchu hurriedly chased outside. The remaining drug power in his body made his legs go weak and he fell straight to the ground.
When Chen Yuan woke up again, although he still felt weak, he felt much more comfortable.
She gradually regained consciousness and turned her head to see Gu Huailing standing by the bed.
"Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" Gu Huailing touched her head, and the coldness on his face disappeared completely.
Looking at Chen Yuan, even his eyebrows and eyes were gentle.
Shen Yuan shook his head and tried to speak, but found his throat was hoarse.
A cup of warm water at just the right temperature was handed to his lips. It was unknown how many times Gu Huailing had cooled it to get it to such a suitable temperature.
The corner of Shen Yuan's lips was bitten by herself, and it felt numb and painful as soon as it came into contact with water.
The next second, a cool feeling came from the corner of her lips, and the man pressed lightly with his fingertips.
