Chapter 30 Lin Xingyao is incomprehensible
The thin sunlight slowly fell into the courtyard like a veil, bringing a little heat.
Chu Ruohan slowly opened the door and looked up to see Song Ruyan's sneaky figure, trying to sneak past the door on tiptoe.
"where have you been?"
Song Ruyan's body stiffened, and her face instantly filled with a flattering smile. She winked at Chu Ruohan flatteringly, trying to get away with it.
"Oh, miss, you're awake now. I'll go out for some fresh air. I've been so bored all night."
How could Chu Ruohan believe it so easily? She frowned slightly and looked around at her. She saw that the hem of her skirt was stained with grass leaves and the corners of her clothes were a little messy. It was obvious that she had not returned home all night.
Song Ruyan couldn't hide it anymore, so she slumped her shoulders and muttered, "Your nanny has been watching me closely these days, like I'm in prison. She won't even let me leave the yard."
"The mansion was so lively yesterday. They were getting married, so there must have been lots of delicious food. The key is that Gu Junze is fine now. I felt like I was being scratched by a cat, so of course I had to join in the fun."
Chu Ruohan glared at her, "When did I ever deprive you of food? Why would you have to go looking for it yourself?"
"Shh," Song Ruyan glanced around vigilantly, and seeing that there was no one around, she quickly grabbed Chu Ruohan with both hands and dragged her behind a pillar, almost sticking her whole body to it.
He leaned over to her ear and lowered his voice very low: "Last night... was so interesting."
"What? You, a grown woman, go and peek into someone else's wedding night." Chu Ruohan widened her eyes, her face full of shock, and her voice unconsciously rose.
"Keep your voice down!" Song Ruyan covered her mouth with her hand in fear, her eyes wide open as she looked frantically towards the wing where the nanny lived. "When the nanny wakes up soon, she'll start nagging non-stop again. I can't stand it."
Song Ruyan patted her chest to calm down, then continued with a beaming expression, "Besides, they didn't even have their wedding night. Gu Cheng'an's alcohol tolerance is simply terrible. After one glass of wine, he fell to the bed with a plop, like a puddle of mud."
"You didn't see it, he took off all his clothes in a daze, hugged the quilt and started mumbling, shouting so happily, calling out 'baby' and 'Ling' over and over again. It was really noisy."
Chu Ruohan blushed when she heard this, and even her neck turned red with embarrassment. She quickly reached out to cover Song Ruyan's mouth, fearing that she would utter something shocking and unbearable.
After recovering from the shock, Chu Ruohan frowned, her mind full of confusion and entanglement.
She was increasingly confused as to what Lin Xingyao was up to. Wasn't she in love with Gu Cheng'an? Why didn't they have a wedding night together, and why did she drug him?
On the other side, the Yaoguang Pavilion was in an uproar.
Du Ruoling's face was covered with tear marks, her hair was scattered messily on her shoulders, and her eyes were red and swollen from not sleeping all night and crying.
Du Ruoling completely ignored the fact that she was still recovering from postpartum confinement and stumbled into Yaoguang Pavilion like a madman.
"Gu Cheng'an, come out here! Gu Cheng'an!"
The servants around the princess were not easy to deal with. Seeing her being so presumptuous, the leading nanny's face darkened and she winked at her subordinates.
Several burly women immediately surrounded her like wolves, roughly took her down, tied her arms behind her back, and twisted them hard, causing Du Ruoling to wail in pain.
With a crisp "pa" sound, she was slapped hard on the face.
Du Ruoling's head was hit and suddenly tilted to one side, blood instantly oozed from the corner of her mouth, and a clear, red and swollen palm print instantly appeared on her fair cheek.
"You little bitch, don't you realize your status? You're yelling and disturbing the princess and the young master. Can you handle this?"
The nanny spat, her face full of disgust and arrogance, "The princess and the second young master are newly married, and they are in a time of deep love. How can you, a shameless thing, mess with it?"
Du Ruoling had previously caused a scene in front of Prince Yong's mansion, causing their princess to lose face. She was just a lowly maid who had climbed into bed, so naturally these servants would not show mercy.
Gu Chengan woke up slowly, his head felt heavy and painful. In a daze, a dazzling red suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
That Hong startled him so much that his eyes widened, his heart suddenly sank, and he sat up instinctively.
When he saw the scene beside him clearly, he felt like he was struck by lightning - Lin Xingyao on the bed was naked, her hair scattered messily on the pillow, and she was still sleeping soundly. Her exposed shoulders were like a dazzling light, burning him so much that he couldn't take his eyes off her.
"What's going on? Last night I clearly..." The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he was left with only confusion in his heart.
How could he have ended up sleeping with Lin Xingyao without thinking? After drinking that glass of wine last night, he didn't remember anything.
"How should I explain this to Ling'er..." he muttered to himself.
At this time, the noise outside the door became clearer, with shouts, beatings and scolding mixed together.
Gu Cheng'an was extremely anxious and didn't care about anything else. He reached out to grab the clothes beside the bed in a panic and put them on in a hurry. He didn't even notice that the buttons were buttoned incorrectly. As if there was an evil ghost chasing him, he raised his legs and ran out the door.
Lin Xingyao waited until the hurried footsteps faded away before she slowly opened her eyes. There was no trace of sleepiness in her eyes, only clarity and calculation.
She sat up slowly, straightened her messy hair, and a barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Gu Cheng'an rushed to the yard in a hurry, but the scene before him made him want to tear his eyes out.
Du Ruoling was pinned to the ground by several burly old women. Her clothes were tattered, her hair was stuck to her tear-stained face, and blood was oozing from the corners of her lips. She looked in a miserable state.
"stop!"
"Second Young Master." Everyone was shocked and quickly let go of his hands, kneeling down tremblingly to pay their respects.
Gu Cheng'an took a quick step forward, squatted down, and carefully held Du Ruoling in his arms. His voice was so gentle that it could drip water: "Why are you here? You are still in the postpartum period. You are so weak, you should take good care of yourself."
Du Ruoling clutched his messy clothes tightly with both hands, her knuckles whitening, her eyes filled with despair, "Didn't you say you wouldn't touch her? You promised me..."
Every question is like a sharp knife piercing my heart.
Gu Chengan avoided her gaze, feeling guilty, and muttered, "I'll explain it to you when we get back. Don't make a scene here for now. Just be obedient."
After saying that, he picked up Du Ruoling's thin body, feeling a heavy sense of guilt weighing on his heart.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly turned around and kicked the old woman who had just injured Du Ruoling.
The old woman screamed and fell to the ground, but he was still not satisfied. He gritted his teeth and cursed, "You bastard, you don't even open your dog eyes to see who the master of this house is! If you do it again, I will sell you all out."
Only after Gu Cheng'an's figure disappeared around the corner of the courtyard gate did Lin Xingyao put on her clothes and walk out of the house.
"Well done, you've worked hard today. Go down and claim your reward."
The smile on her lips deepened, and a faint light flickered in her eyes. Those in this courtyard were all her trusted servants brought from Prince Yong's Mansion.
Gu Chengan? What qualifications do you have to beat, scold, and betray him?
He's just a fool blinded by love. This drama has just begun.
