Chapter 70 Unwilling to Listen to Her Explanation
He clenched his fists, then released them after a moment and looked at Shen Yuan.
"It's okay, Yuan'er. If you don't like the dish, I'll order them to change it until you like it."
Chen Yuan was so angry that his head was dizzy. He stretched out his hand and said, "Where are you drawing? Draw it for me."
Gu Jingchu took a step forward, held her hand, and stared into her eyes, "Yuan'er, that's all I have left."
Shen Yuan used all his strength to shake him off.
She felt a little tired. From Gu Jingchu's stubborn eyes, she seemed to see her dying self in her previous life.
"Gu Jingchu, do you know? When I died in my last life, it was very painful, but at that moment I felt an unprecedented sense of relief."
A hint of pain flashed across Gu Jingchu's eyes bit by bit.
He spoke incoherently, "Yuan'er, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were so seriously ill. I didn't know. I really didn't know. I'm sorry."
Tears welled up in Chen Yuan's eyes, and the feeling of helplessness and loneliness overwhelmed her once again.
She looked into Gu Jingchu's eyes and said, "You haven't experienced that feeling, so you can't understand me now. Gu Jingchu, I don't owe you anything."
"Gu Jingchu, do you know what Shen Yuan's regret was in his previous life?"
Her voice suddenly became very soft. "It's because I didn't get that divorce paper before I died. If you really regret it, don't bother me anymore. You've been reborn, so let's let each other go."
Gu Jingchu's eyes were bloodshot. "Yuan'er, if I let you go, who will let me go? You are my wife, but you turned around and married my elder brother. You let me go, so what should I do?"
"What did I do wrong? I've never taken a concubine in my life, and you're the only one in my family. It was only after Lin Wanyin's husband died that I wanted to take her into my family. Does that mean I'm committing a heinous crime in your eyes?"
Chen Yuan didn't want to continue chatting with him, "Give me back the painting, so that no one will see it and cause unnecessary trouble."
Gu Jingchu felt bitter in his heart, "If it weren't for that painting, you wouldn't have come back today, right?"
"yes."
A word that is cold and firm.
Gu Jingchu smiled bitterly. Even though he knew the answer, he still asked again and again without giving up.
He took a step forward, and Shen Yuan took a step back and turned away, "Stay away from me."
Gu Jingchu looked at Shen Yuan's face, not missing any expression on her face, "That painting was taken away by my eldest brother."
Chen Yuan's heart skipped a beat!
No wonder Gu Huailing is so abnormal.
Shen Yuan was so angry that her head was dizzy. Without thinking, she raised her hand and slapped him in the face.
Her voice was filled with tears. "Gu Jingchu, you just can't stand seeing me doing well, right?"
Gu Jingchu gritted his teeth in anger, "Yuan'er, am I so unbearable in your heart?"
"yes!"
Gu Jingchu sneered, knowing full well that this woman didn't have him in her heart.
She was still furious, "Yes, I gave the painting to my eldest brother on purpose. He reacted so strongly when he saw it. If he knew that we spent every night together in our last life, would he divorce you?"
“Snap—”
Another heavy slap, Shen Yuan's eyes were red, "You are shameless!"
Gu Jingchu roared, "I am shameless. No matter whether I did it or not, you think I did it. In your heart, I have long been unbearable. How can I still be a gentleman?"
Chen Yuan was startled by the roar, "Gu Jingchu, are you trying to force me to death?"
The sound of wooden boards rubbing against the ground was heard.
Chen Yuan and Gu Jingchu looked outside at the same time. When they saw the person coming, Chen Yuan froze.
There is nothing more to say than this.
Their eyes met, and Chen Yuan only saw Gu Huailing's dark eyes and overly calm face.
"Madam, come here." A voice so deep that it made people feel cold rang out.
Chen Yuan glared at Gu Jingchu angrily and ran towards Gu Huailing.
She ran so fast that her foot hit the door frame as she was leaving the house, causing her to fall forward.
At the moment when Shen Yuan thought her face would turn towards him, Gu Huailing caught her steadily.
Then he let her go again.
His tone returned to its usual calmness, "Let's go."
Shen Yuan now wants to kill Gu Jingchu
She carefully looked at Gu Huailing's expression and tried to explain, "Sir, please listen to my explanation. Gu Jingchu and I really have nothing."
Gu Huailing looked at Chen Yuan, "Madam, can you please stop talking for now?"
He looked very cold. Shen Yuan had never seen Gu Huailing like this before. She had a lot to explain, but she didn't know where to start.
It was good that he was so calm and didn't embarrass her in person.
The atmosphere in the carriage was tense as never before.
Gu Huailing closed his eyes, leaving only a cold profile to Chen Yuan.
When the carriage gradually stopped, Gu Jingchu finally opened his eyes.
He looked at Shen Yuan and said, "Madam, please return home first."
Chen Yuan looked at Gu Huailing and mustered up the courage to ask, "Sir, are you not going back?"
Gu Huailing didn't say anything, just stared at Chen Yuan.
The pressure came instantly, and Shen Yuan felt her scalp tingling. She didn't want the misunderstanding to continue like this.
She thought for a moment and looked at Gu Huailing, "Master, please come back soon. I can explain what happened today."
Gu Huailing nodded and directed the order, "Sanjiu, take Madam back. Don't let anyone of questionable character get close to Madam."
The words were meant to be an instruction to Sanjiu, but they were actually spoken to himself.
Shen Yuan bit her lip and got off the carriage.
The black gold wooden carriage drove towards the Wanfo Temple.
The bells of the Buddhist temple echoed in the twilight.
Master Tingquan was waiting at the gate of the Buddhist temple.
"Amitabha, I hope you are well, Prime Minister." Master Tingquan clasped his hands together and bowed to Gu Huailing.
Gu Huailing nodded, and Tingquan led him to a quiet Zen temple. There were ancient and vigorous pines in the courtyard, and a chessboard was placed on a stone table not far away.
Master Tingquan made a gesture of invitation, "Master Prime Minister, your mind is unsettled. How about playing a game of hand with me first?"
The chess pieces falling on the board in the Zen temple are particularly clear.
After one game, both sides ended in a draw.
Tingquan collected the chess piece and asked, "What does the Prime Minister want to ask?"
Gu Huailing expressed everything that was on his mind.
Tingquan smiled and said, "It's just to set things right. My Lord, there's no need to worry about it."
"Set things right." Gu Huailing repeated these words.
"Amitabha, everything is predestined."
After saying this, Tingquan glanced at the sky and said, "If you have nothing to do today, my Lord Prime Minister, you can stay in the temple for one night. Tingquan is willing to give you a lecture."
Tingquan travels around all year round, and even it is not easy for the emperor to see him.
What's more, what about listening to him preach?
Gu Huailing wanted to agree, but Shen Yuan's clear eyes suddenly flashed through his mind.
He stood up and said, "Thank you, Master. I will come to listen to your lecture someday when I have time."
"Amitabha, take care, Prime Minister." Tingquan clasped his hands together and did not force it.
Chen Yuan has been feeling very anxious since he returned, and his eyelids have been twitching.
She had never felt this way before, as if something bad was about to happen.
She calmed herself down and told Taozi, "Let Sanjiu come over. I have something to ask him."
