Chapter 105: People on the streets are saying that the prince is inhumane?
Gu Junze looked at her angry expression, but instead of getting angry, he chuckled.
In his eyes, Chu Ruohan's expression at the moment was extremely lively. He coaxed her softly, "I made Madam angry, so naturally I have to find a way to coax her."
As he spoke, his expression gradually became serious. He looked into Chu Ruohan's eyes seriously and said, "I was wrong. I will never mention divorce again."
In this world, men are superior to women, and even the wife is an appendage of the man.
Gu Junze's sincere admission of guilt was already better than most men. However, Chu Ruohan didn't want to forgive him easily.
She pushed Gu Junze away, got off the bed, and said coldly, "Since the prince likes this room, then leave it to him."
After saying that, she turned and left without any hesitation.
Seeing that she was really leaving, Gu Junze became anxious and wanted to reach out to pull her, but he accidentally rolled off the bed and fell to the ground, letting out a muffled groan.
Chu Ruohan was startled when she heard the voice and subconsciously turned back. She looked at Gu Junze lying on the ground in a mess, and her tone was filled with anxiety: "Why are you so reckless? Are you hurt?"
Seeing the anxious look in her eyes, Gu Junze acted pitifully and said, "The ground where your knees landed first is probably clear. Take a look."
She squatted down and gently rolled up the man's trouser legs, only to see that his slender white legs were already red and swollen.
Chu Ruohan couldn't help but frown. She quickly called Ying Qing in and said, "Carry the prince back to the bed. I can't move him."
Then he told Yuling to get the medicinal wine.
She wanted to call Doctor Qian, but was stopped by Gu Junze. "No need to make such a fuss."
Yuling quickly brought the medicinal wine. Gu Junze used his eyes to signal Yingqing and Yuling to leave.
He and Chu Ruohan were the only ones left in the room. Chu Ruohan sat by the bed, carefully rubbing the medicinal wine on him. Her movements were gentle, her eyes full of concern.
Gu Junze looked at her, his eyes flickering. He said again, "I was really wrong. Madam, can you forgive me this time?"
Chu Ruohan actually didn't think about it at all and continued the cold war with him. She raised her head, looked into Gu Junze's sincere eyes, and nodded slightly.
Gu Junze was overjoyed. He hugged her in his arms and then lowered his head to kiss her.
Although they were not actually husband and wife, the feeling of staying alone in an empty room was too uncomfortable. Gu Junze had long been accustomed to having her by his side and no longer wanted to toss and turn alone in bed.
This kiss was filled with his apology, longing and love.
The moonlight is like water, gently falling on the carved bed through the thin curtains.
Chu Ruohan lay quietly in Gu Junze's arms, her cheeks flushed with emotion.
She moved her body slightly, adjusted to a more comfortable position, and then said, "I really like Xuan Ge'er. Can we adopt Xuan Ge'er?"
Ever since that incident, Aunt Li has never brought Xuan'er here again. I wonder if Aunt Li is unwilling?
After all, they are her own flesh and blood. How could a mother be willing to give her own child away? It is human nature to be reluctant to do so.
Thinking of this, a trace of loneliness flashed in Chu Ruohan's eyes.
Gu Junze was slightly stunned when he heard Chu Ruohan's words. He lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms, his eyes full of tenderness and pampering.
He gently stroked Chu Ruohan's hair and said softly, "Actually, we can have a child ourselves."
He had completely let it go. Even if he was paralyzed for the rest of his life, he didn't want to give up on Chu Ruohan.
Gu Junze waited for a moment, and seeing no movement, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
He lowered his head slightly and saw that Chu Ruohan had closed her eyes. Her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her cheeks, and her even breathing indicated that she had fallen asleep.
There was still a hint of fatigue on her face, probably because she was too tired today.
Gu Junze shook his head helplessly, but couldn't help but smile.
He gently pulled the quilt up and carefully covered Chu Ruohan with it, fearing that he would wake her up.
He quietly looked at Chu Ruohan's sleeping face, his eyes full of tenderness...
Night fell over the capital city, and as the lights came on, the Huajin Tower was filled with a scene of decadence and extravagance.
The sound of stringed instruments was heard throughout the building, and the air was filled with the rich aroma of wine and cosmetics.
Gu Jiacheng was sitting in a private room on the second floor at this time. He was already drunk, his eyes were blurred and his face was flushed.
A graceful beauty was nestled beside him. He held her waist tightly with one hand and held a wine glass with the other, taking a sip from it from time to time.
He boasted to the equally drunk nobleman beside him, "Did you know? My brother Xuan is incredible! He's been favored by the Anyang Marquisate. He'll be the Anyang Marquis from now on! Haha, and I'll be the old master!"
As he spoke, he gave the beauty a hard kiss on the face, causing her to slap him coquettishly.
The young man was immediately interested when he heard this. Although he was also drunk, he still forced himself to ask, "Really? This is a big deal! Don't lie to me."
When Gu Jiacheng heard this, he became unhappy and slammed the wine glass down on the table.
"How could I lie to you? My brother Xuan is so blessed that he's favored by the Anyang Marquisate. As his father, I can also benefit from it."
As he spoke, he danced and splashed a lot of wine.
In this noisy atmosphere, these words were spread.
There were already many people and gossips in Huajin Tower, and these words were explosive enough. The eldest son of the Marquis of Anyang was unable to have children, so he wanted to adopt a son?
Soon, the news spread like wildfire throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.
The next morning, as the sun barely shone on the bluestone pavement of the capital, the news had already spread throughout the city.
On the streets and alleys, people were whispering and talking about the "hidden illness" of the prince of Anyang Marquis's Mansion.
Chu Ruohan heard the news while she was having breakfast in the Marquis' Mansion.
She paused with her chopsticks in her hand, her expression darkening instantly, her eyes filled with anger. "Who on earth spread this news?"
Yuling hurried in, bowed slightly, and hurriedly reported, "Young Madam, yesterday, Master Jiacheng, a descendant of Master Gu San, got drunk at Huajinlou and started talking nonsense. He said you wanted to adopt Xuan'er and that he would inherit the Marquisate in the future."
After hearing this, Chu Ruohan felt a surge of anger rushing to her head. "This idiot!" She couldn't help but curse, "How could Brother Xuan have such a stupid father?"
How can we talk about this matter outside before it is confirmed?
Besides, Gu Junze has not agreed to adopt Xuan Ge'er.
Now that it has been publicized like this, it has undoubtedly put the prince in the spotlight.
Even if Gu Junze agreed, Marquis Anyang might not be willing.
What a bad teammate, he is more of a hindrance than a help.
