Chang'an has a hometown, and the hometown belongs to Chang'an 7
The man pursed his lips and looked silently at Gu Qingzhou, who was dying on the bed. He turned around with a little reluctance and left the cabin.
Gu Qingzhou's whole body was in a state of burning pain, and the tearing pain made her unable to tell what day it was.
"Chang'an!" Gu Qingzhou was awakened by her hometown. She opened her eyes and looked at her hometown's anxious face so close to her.
She forced a smile, "Why are you here?"
His voice was dry and hoarse.
"I found the silver bell on your ankle on a small tree trunk beside the grass slope. I followed this road all the way down and found you." Guli touched Gu Qingzhou's forehead with her hand. The scorching heat startled him and he retracted his hand. "What's wrong with you?"
Gu Qingzhou opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but all the strength in his body seemed to be drained away, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
At the same time, loud applause came from outside the door. Prince Heshuo waved his folding fan and slowly walked in front of Gu Qingzhou. "Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise I would have missed this great show."
Guli didn't care about etiquette, strode forward, grabbed the collar of Prince Heshuo, and looked at him sharply, "Did you do this?"
Prince Heshuo smiled. He looked at Guli, who was looking at him with a look that seemed to want to eat him alive. He raised his hand and placed it on the hand that was holding his collar. He said nonchalantly, "So what?"
Guli lifted up Prince Heshuo, his hands turning slightly white from the excessive force. He gritted his teeth and asked, "What is the way to save him?"
Prince Heshuo tapped his hand with his folding fan, "Let go of your hand first."
Seeing that Guli didn't move, he didn't get angry. His eyes vaguely swept across Gu Qingzhou's pale cheek, "You can stalemate with me like this, but I don't know if Miss Chang'an can hold on any longer..."
Guli let go of her hand dejectedly, "What do you want?"
"Hmm..." Prince Heshuo tapped his head with his folding fan, "I need to think about it carefully."
"How about... kneel down and beg me! Beg me to save her." He chuckled, looking at Guli's tightly clenched hands hanging at his side. "Well, everyone knows that General Guli is unruly and has a lot of money under his knees! If I could get a kneeling from him, it would be a truly extraordinary experience."
Prince Heshuo paused when he said this. He took a step forward and sat down beside Gu Qingzhou's bed. He looked at Gu Qingzhou affectionately and said, "I just don't know if this girl Chang'an is worthy of this kneeling in the heart of the general."
As he spoke, he leaned close to Gu Qingzhou's ear and whispered, "You don't dislike me, then I will help you test your hometown who also loves you."
His hand brushed Gu Qingzhou's cheek, smoothing her frown, and he said to himself, "But we agreed in advance that if he doesn't kneel, then you'll be mine."
Guli bit his back teeth hard, and his hands creaked. He looked at Gu Qingzhou, whose breath was weak and looked like he would disappear in the next moment. He took a deep breath and loosened his clenched hands.
In a daze, Gu Qingzhou heard a "thump" sound beside his ear, and then the pain in his body disappeared bit by bit...
When Gu Qingzhou woke up again, she and Guli were the only ones left in the cabin.
She turned her head, and Guli's hands gently held hers, his eyes already closed. He and Gu Qingzhou were very close, the sunlight shone on him, and Gu Qingzhou could clearly see the small hairs on his face.
Gu Qingzhou couldn't help but reach out and poke his cheek. In an instant, the scene of Guli kneeling down to beg for medicine for her yesterday flashed through her mind.
A wonderful feeling emerged in Gu Qingzhou's heart, and his slender white fingers were firmly pressed against Gu Li's face without any further movement.
Guli felt her movements, opened his eyes, held Gu Qingzhou in one hand, squinted his eyes, and said jokingly, "Why are you ready to throw yourself into my arms so early in the morning?"
His voice was tinged with smile, and every word he spoke was captivating.
The guilt on Gu Qingzhou's face turned into a smile. She turned from passive to active and interlocked her fingers with Gu Li. "Don't be so conceited. I'm hungry. Go make me something to eat."
Guli smiled, kissed her hand, and stood up in a very servile manner. "Okay, Miss Chang'an, please wait a moment."
-
There were no fresh fruits and vegetables in the cabin. Guli thought that Gu Qingzhou had just recovered, so he prepared to catch a fish for her in the creek outside the house and make soup for her.
Gu Qingzhou waited for a long time, but there was no sign of Guli. She couldn't help but feel worried. Helplessly, she had to stand up.
As a result, I saw the hometown and the lively fish on the chopping board, staring at each other with wide eyes.
It was rare to see him so frustrated, and Gu Qingzhou couldn't help laughing. She took a step forward, patted Guli's shoulder, and tilted her head. "Are you planning to let it go into the pot by itself?"
Guli turned around and hugged Gu Qingzhou. He lowered his head and rubbed Gu Qingzhou's cheek. "I'm using my mind."
Gu Qingzhou glanced at Guli with disdain and opened his arms towards him. "Come, help me dress. Today, let me, the chef from Chang'an, show you my cooking skills."
Guli smiled, and while helping her put on clothes, she poked her waist restlessly, causing Gu Qingzhou to raise her hands in surrender.
"Okay! Stop making trouble." Gu Qingzhou picked up a knife from the chopping board and carefully scraped off the scales on the fish.
The sun poured down on her, outlining her delicate and beautiful profile. Gu Li couldn't help but dazed. He couldn't help but hugged Gu Qingzhou from behind, "Chang'an, do you think we look like an old married couple like this?"
Gu Qingzhou paused her hand movements, her heartbeat stopped for a second, and it seemed that something in the deepest part of her heart was slowly breaking.
Gu Qingzhou didn't want Guli to notice that something was wrong with her, so she dipped her fingers in the water at hand and splashed it on Guli's face with a smile.
"What are you going to cook?" Gu Li cleverly changed the subject. He rubbed Gu Qingzhou's long hair, and when Gu Qingzhou looked up, he had already looked at the fish on the chopping board.
Gu Qingzhou tightened his grip on the knife handle a little, without even raising his head. "Squirrel fish."
Gu Li suppressed the slight disappointment in his heart and said excitedly, "Squirrel Mandarin Fish, just what I want."
Gu Qingzhou was unaware of the loss of his hometown, and his hometown was also unaware of the heartbeat he felt at that moment.
The hall (kitchen) was quiet. Both of them had their own thoughts. They were both thinking about each other, but the other didn't know it...
The fish that had always been against its hometown was surprisingly obedient under Gu Qingzhou's hands. In a short while, a dish of squirrel fish with good color, aroma and taste was out of the pot.
Guli was just about to pick up the chopsticks to enjoy his meal when Gu Qingzhou hit his hand hard. He covered his hand pretending to be in pain and looked at Gu Qingzhou with a rather resentful look.
"I didn't say I was going to give it to you!" Gu Qingzhou picked up a piece of mandarin fish and waved it in front of Gu Li. "Ah!" She ate it clean in one bite. She licked the corner of her mouth with her tongue, her eyes sparkling as if she was surrounded by a dazzling galaxy. "It's so delicious~"
Then, she picked up her chopsticks again, and as she had always done, she slid the fish meat across Guli's nose and took the last bite into her own mouth.
Guli helped Gu Qingzhou up and placed her between him and the stool. He lowered his head and kissed her lips. The hot kiss wrapped around the delicious fish meat was so addictive.
Gu Qingzhou was stunned by this unexpected kiss, his little face flushed red, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Guli's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and the fish meat slid down his throat and fell into his stomach. He let go of Gu Qingzhou in his arms, wiped his lips with his fingertips comfortably, and said meaningfully, "Hmm... It's quite delicious. Why don't we... just eat it like this!"
A surge of heat rose from deep within her heart, and Gu Qingzhou's face turned even redder. She quickly waved her hand, "No need."
Guli raised his eyebrows and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
After the two finished their meal and took a short rest, they rushed back to the city.
The sister in her hometown received the news from her brother early in the morning, and was at the door of Baihua Pavilion early to "welcome the two of them."
She looked at Gu Li and Gu Qingzhou, who were riding the same horse, with a look of despair, and curled her lips. "Do you really have to stick together every day? Tsk tsk tsk, it's unbearable to watch."
Gu Qingzhou unceremoniously put his arms around Guli's neck, winked playfully at Guruo, and kissed her on the cheek. He said earnestly, "This is also to let you get used to it in advance!"
Guli hugged Gu Qingzhou's waist and said, "So you plan to be with me?"
Gu Qingzhou tapped the tip of his nose and said, "Let's see how you perform!"
So if you hold your forehead, you will be speechless...
Who are these people!
Guli stayed with Gu Qingzhou for a long time before leaving reluctantly.
But Gu Ruo stood in front of Gu Qingzhou, not leaving for a long time. She clenched her sleeves tightly with both hands, lowered her head, and hesitantly said for a long time, "What happened before was my fault. I'm sorry."
Her voice was very soft, like a floating cloud passing by Gu Qingzhou's ear. Gu Qingzhou looked at her shy appearance and couldn't help but want to tease her. She deliberately moved closer to him, "I didn't hear what you said clearly."
Looking at Gu Qingzhou's face that suddenly approached, Gu Ruo bit her lip. The three words "I'm sorry" were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them.
Gu Qingzhou laughed out loud after his evil plan succeeded. She pinched Gu Ruo's cheek and said, "I heard it! I was just kidding you."
Gu Ruo looked at Gu Qingzhou's playful face and suddenly realized that she had been fooled. Her expression changed several times and she yelled at Gu Qingzhou in revenge, "You big liar."
Gu Qingzhou looked at Gu Ruo's back as she left in anger, rubbed his ears, and shook his head helplessly, "This little girl."
There was a hint of complaint in his tone, but his eyes were already filled with a faint smile.
Her smile melted into the dark night sky and became the brightest star in the sky.
