Chapter 30: Run and see if I can lock you up
"You want to divorce Ayuan before we get married, but have I made you unhappy?" The familiar cold scent of ink came.
Shen Yuan turned around stiffly, feeling numb. How did the fire burn on him?
"Brother, sister-in-law, you guys chat. I have a stomachache and need to go to the bathroom." Gu Yao covered her stomach and ran away without looking back.
Chen Yuan also wanted to run, but Gu Huailing had already walked over.
He sat down in front of Shen Yuan and repeated what he had just said very patiently.
"A Yuan, do you have any opinions about me?"
Chen Yuan shook his head guiltily.
Gu Huailing looked at the woman in front of him and said, "Ayuan, marry me. I will not restrict you. You can do whatever you want. In the future, whether you want to see the lonely smoke in the desert or the wind and snow outside the Great Wall, I can accompany you."
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and the man's somewhat cold voice rang out again, "I know that many shops in the capital belong to Ayuan. After we get married, I will definitely not confine you to the backyard."
Chen Yuan raised his head and asked tentatively, "Will it not affect you?"
"Won't."
"Brother, grandma knew that my sister-in-law was coming, so she waited for her in Wutong Courtyard." Gu Yao ran out of breath.
Gu Huailing glanced at Gu Yao silently.
Is he going to get help for her? He is quite loyal! Shen Yuan quietly made a gesture to Gu Yao.
Shen Yuan liked Madam Gu very much. She was open-minded and fair. It was a pity that they had not had much contact in their previous life.
The Wutong Courtyard is fresh and elegant everywhere. There is a century-old wutong tree in the courtyard. It is said that it was planted by the old Marquis Gu himself for the old Madam Gu to show the deep love between the couple.
The servants in the courtyard were hurrying along, while inside the house, Old Madam Gu was pointing at a pile of gifts and picking them out.
"Grandma, Big Brother and Sister Shen are here."
Old Madam Gu turned around and looked at the little girl who walked in from outside.
She is really pretty, cute and pretty, standing next to Ling'er, the two of them are a perfect match.
"Come in quickly and sit down." As soon as Mrs. Gu saw Chen Yuan, her eyes seemed to be glued to her and she couldn't move away.
Gu Huailing coughed lightly and looked at Old Madam Gu.
Madam Gu glared at Gu Huailing and said, "Why are you coughing? Can I scare your future wife away? Come here quickly, little girl Shen, let grandma take a look."
Chen Yuan stepped forward and bowed seriously, being unusually well-behaved.
Madam Gu took her hand and said, "I remember when I held you in my arms. In the blink of an eye, you've grown up so big. It's great."
"Although this guy looks a bit cold, he is a caring person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought my wife back from outside. This is enough to show how much he values you."
The more Mrs. Gu looked at it, the more she liked it. Suddenly, as if she thought of something, she waved her hand and the servants in front of her immediately stood in a row.
Each one was holding a tray, and on each tray was a very exquisite brocade box.
"Good boy, this is a gift from your grandmother. Go and see if you like it."
The brocade boxes were opened one by one. Even though Shen Yuan was used to seeing good things, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Jade, coral, beeswax, pearls are not common. Just the quality of this box of Dongzhu is a treasure!
Chen Yuan really felt that she was unworthy of receiving it. "Thank you, Madam. These are too valuable. I cannot accept them."
Madam Gu waved her hand indifferently, "They are just some small toys, play with them as you please."
Shen Yuan was struck by the jewels in front of her.
This? Is it some gadget?
Shen Yuan turned around and looked at Gu Huailing.
Gu Huailing looked back at Chen Yuan with a gentle gaze, "I'll accept it as a gift from my grandmother."
Chen Yuan accepted it nervously.
Madam Gu pointed at Gu Huailing again and said, "After you get married, give the key to your private vault to your wife. Miss Shen, don't be polite to him. This guy has a lot of good things."
Chen Yuan laughed in silence. In her previous life, she was not treated so well by Old Madam Gu. This time, it must be because of Gu Huailing that Old Madam Gu loved him so much.
"What are you thinking about?" Inside the carriage, Gu Huailing looked at the woman who had been silent since getting on the carriage and asked gently.
Chen Yuan pointed to the pile of brocade boxes in the corner of the carriage and said, "I'm wondering what I have done to deserve the old lady to treat me so well."
"Ayuan likes these?" Gu Huailing suddenly asked.
Chen Yuan nodded. "What woman wouldn't like it? Besides, the things the old lady gave me are all treasures. My lord, let me ask you something. What does the old lady like? She gave me so many good things, I have to give her something in return."
Gu Huailing's eyebrows were dim, and he was somewhat dissatisfied that Shen Yuan's attention was not on him.
He took out a box and handed it to Shen Yuan. He held her hand and opened it for her personally. There was a key inside.
"Is this the key to your private vault?"
Gu Huailing nodded. "I wanted to give it to you on the day of your wedding, but since Grandmother mentioned it today, I'll give it to you first."
As if touching a hot potato, Shen Yuan suddenly pushed it far away and said, "I don't want it. What do I need the key to the lord's private vault for?"
"They say that when you're married, you become one. Yuan'er doesn't want to take the key to my private vault. Are you thinking of divorcing me in the future?"
Gu Huailing said it lightly, but Chen Yuan was terrified.
She quickly took the key from Gu Huailing's hand, fearing that he would ask again if it would make her unhappy or if he had any opinions about her.
Gu Huailing looked at the woman's guilty eyes and raised the corners of his lips silently.
When she was about to get off the carriage, Chen Yuan's hand was suddenly grabbed by Gu Huailing.
Gu Huailing looked at her, "Ayuan, I have three days left before I can go and propose marriage. Just wait for me at home. I will give you everything you want."
"So fast?" Shen Yuan said subconsciously.
Gu Huailing's face gradually darkened. He raised his eyelids and gave the woman in front of him a warm and cool look.
Chen Yuan looked at the Prime Minister, who always kept his emotions secret, and suddenly felt like teasing him.
She looked at his beautiful face, curled her lips, and said in a feigned embarrassment, "Yes, I think it's too fast. What if I get scared and run away?"
The woman had a pretty face, and her watery eyes held a teasing look.
Gu Huailing's eyes suddenly darkened, and his face remained expressionless.
Chen Yuan's heart began to beat faster.
"I'll go down first."
Before she could run, the man grabbed her slender waist. Gu Huailing pulled her back into his arms, his eyes dark and violent. He slowly placed his hand on her ankle and held it down. "Ayuan, try running and see if I can lock you up."
After saying that, he stared into her watery eyes and lowered his head to press his lips against hers.
Shen Yuan's ankle was pressed so hard that it made her feel uncomfortable, and her lips were also under his control, so she couldn't move at all.
"Are you still running?" When Shen Yuan was almost out of breath, Gu Huailing let her go.
Chen Yuan quickly shook her head. She was just joking with Gu Huailing, but she didn't expect that this man would use this to bully her.
Chen Yuan was so angry that she pinched his waist without thinking.
Gu Huailing's breathing tightened, "Ayuan, you can't pinch a man's waist."
As soon as he finished speaking, he held Chen Yuan's hand and kissed her again. The cold fragrance of ink and water wrapped her whole body in it. Chen Yuan had no ability to resist. It was not until both of them were breathing unsteadily that Gu Huailing let her go.
Gu Huailing's breathing became unusually irregular, and he raised his hand to tidy up the woman's somewhat messy clothes.
