Chapter 200 I've been married before, General, don't worry
The blush on Yu Qinghuan's cheeks had not yet faded. When she heard Cheng Gongjin's sarcastic words, she cursed in her heart. He had just been kissing her passionately, but now he was being calculative.
"What you said, Lord, is truly hurtful." She blinked and met Cheng Gongjin's gaze with an innocent expression, "I only treat you this way."
Beauty is ahead,
Cheng Gongjin's fingers, which were stroking the jade belt around his waist, tightened slightly. Upon hearing this, he suddenly pulled her half a foot closer, "I am not them."
The implication is that the beauty trap is useless to him, and these words are also useless to him.
Yu Qinghuan pretended not to hear. All men are the same, they are stubborn.
"If you were any different from others, you should have pushed me away just now."
As she spoke, she softly climbed up Cheng Gongjin's chest, and through the purple official robe, she circled around his heart, "Why don't you push me away?"
The place in front of him where Yu Qinghuan touched felt numb, and Cheng Gongjin frowned slightly, wondering why he didn't push her away.
He didn't know, he just wanted to do it, so he did it, just like now, his thumb brushed across the corner of her red lips, and asked her for the first time: "What do you want?"
The wind rustled the branches, startling Yu Qinghuan so much that her back tensed. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Will you give me everything I want?"
She didn't think Cheng Gongjin would be so kind, he just wanted to make fun of her again.
Now in the court, the only person who can restrain the prince is the man in front of him, and he does have the ability to do so.
Cheng Gongjin's eyes darkened suddenly, and his warm breath suddenly touched her earlobe. "That depends on whose child you are carrying."
If she really belonged to Mu Huaian, he would definitely not allow the prince to marry her.
Such a meaningless sentence made Yu Qinghuan a little confused. What did it mean?
Just as she was about to ask for clarification, she heard heavy footsteps coming from the stone slabs of the imperial road.
The two of them took a step back almost at the same time, keeping some distance between them. Just as Sang Ru turned around to alert others that someone was coming, he saw that the two people who had been kissing each other just now looked like strangers.
Elder Cheng was dressed in a purple robe, full of righteousness and awe-inspiring without even being angry.
Her girl was dignified and polite in every smile and frown, and even lifted her sleeves to half cover her face, looking like she didn't want to see any men.
Sang Ru sighed secretly, they are all so good at pretending.
No one could tell that these two had just kissed.
Not far away, the Jinwu Guards of the palace were on patrol. Their leader, Du Yunxiao, came over and caught sight of the two. He waved for the others behind him to continue, then turned and walked over. He bowed to Cheng Gongjin and said, "Master Cheng."
Cheng Gongjin nodded slightly.
Du Yunxiao was obviously delighted when he saw Yu Qinghuan. "Huanhuan, I didn't explain it to you clearly last time. I didn't expect to see you in the palace today."
Yu Qinghuan finally remembered Du Yunxiao at this time. She couldn't believe that the big guy in front of her was her childhood playmate who was so thin that he couldn't even lift a bucket of water.
Cheng Gongjin on the side looked at Yu Qinghuan deeply.
Du Yunxiao had just been recalled to the capital from the border, and he was already being so intimate with her.
Even if he didn't say anything, Yu Qinghuan could see what his eyes meant, and she immediately felt wronged. She and Du Yunxiao were innocent!
But since the other person didn't say anything, she couldn't explain it, as if she was trying to cover up something.
Cheng Gongjin said calmly, "I won't bother Madam Yu and General Du any more. Goodbye."
Yu Qinghuan wanted to ask what he meant by that, but she couldn't chase him in front of Du Yunxiao, so she could only watch Cheng Gongjin walk away.
Apart from anything else, there is no one else in the entire capital who can match his stature and bearing.
After Cheng Gongjin left, Du Yunxiao couldn't wait to talk to Yu Qinghuan for a long time, "Huanhuan, do you still remember me?"
Yu Qinghuan nodded slightly, "It's been so many years since we last met... The General has changed so much."
Seeing her distant, Du Yunxiao felt a little disappointed, but a smile hung on his face, "You don't have to be polite with me, just call me like before."
Yu Qinghuan smiled awkwardly. How did she call him that before?
She tried hard to find that unfamiliar name in the depths of her memory, but she just couldn't say it out loud. After all, she was no longer the girl in her early teens. How could she still chase after others and call Yun Xiao brother?
What's more, for Du Yunxiao, it was eight years, but for himself, it was something from the previous life. Although he still remembered it, it was still unfamiliar and a little awkward.
Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, Du Yunxiao sighed, "I still remember when I left Beijing, you secretly came to see me off and stuffed me with a lot of dry food and silver. Do you still remember the agreement we made back then?"
He tried to find the warmth between them.
Yu Qinghuan was indeed reminded of some memories.
The Du family and the Yu family are neighbors, and the two families used to be good friends. She and Du Yunxiao have been friends since childhood. Because of her stepmother and stepsister, the family had to reduce her food and clothing. Du Yunxiao would often secretly bring her delicious food and fun things, and give her New Year's money during festivals.
At that time, Du Yunxiao's father was a third-rank official in the court. The Du family took the initiative to form a marriage with the Yu family. Yu's father was very flattering and agreed without saying a word. At that time, Yu Zhilan was jealous and made a fuss for a long time. Yu's father wanted to give the marriage to Yu Zhilan, but Du Yunxiao refused.
Because of the marriage with the Du family, her life in the mansion became better. However, less than two years after the marriage was arranged, the Du family encountered trouble and was demoted.
Yu's father was afraid of being implicated, so he turned his back on the marriage.
When the Du family moved out of the capital, she secretly went to the capital to see the Du family off under Sang Ru's cover. She held Du Yunxiao and cried with red eyes. She thought that she would never see him again in this life, so she stuffed all the money she had secretly saved over the years into Du Yunxiao.
As for what was agreed...
Yu Qinghuan laughed and said, "It was a childhood joke, I don't remember it clearly. If it's about an engagement, I'm already married, General, don't worry about it."
Hearing this, Du Yunxiao suddenly stopped, his knuckles on his sword suddenly tensed to the point of turning white. He subconsciously took a half step towards Yu Qinghuan, "But I've never forgotten. This time I returned to the capital, I was going to propose marriage."
In the past eight years, my father passed away due to illness. My mother was so sad that she was bedridden and passed away too.
This change made him disheartened and he wanted to commit suicide several times, but when he thought that there was someone waiting for him in the capital, he held on.
Even when he later went to the border to join the army, he was seriously injured and nearly died several times on the battlefield. He relied on the last bit of faith to hold on, which was to make a name for himself, return to the capital, and marry his Huanhuan in a grand ceremony.
But now, the little girl who was crying with red eyes while pulling at her sleeve said that it was just a childhood joke and the engagement was no longer valid.
Seeing his reaction, Yu Qinghuan was a little at a loss and looked at Sang Ru for help.
But at this moment, Sang Ru was on the lookout again and had no time to pay attention to her. She had already recognized that this General Du was the young man from the Du family who had a deep affection for her girl in the past. They were childhood sweethearts, so how could she go up and disturb him?
If Master Yu knew that the young master of the Du family, who had left Beijing in poverty, had now become a general of the Jinwu Guard, he would probably regret it to the core.
Look, her daughter’s blessing lies ahead!
