Chapter 230 You Come With Me
Meeting Cheng Gongjin's gaze, Yu Qinghuan's smile froze on her face, and she felt embarrassed and flustered as if she had been caught eating secretly.
At this moment, Mu Huaian was hugging her tightly, trying to ease the longing he had felt for her for the past few days. "Huanhuan, I'll tell my teacher later that I'll be staying here with you to help you take care of your pregnancy."
Cheng Gongjin just looked at the two people in front of him, pursing his thin lips. He was young and enthusiastic, and he could hug them in any occasion.
The same scene had happened once before, but this time, he was not as indifferent as before.
Yu Qinghuan patted Mu Huaian's shoulder and whispered, "Someone... let me go first."
She didn't mind getting close to Mu Huaian in front of Cheng Gongjin, but the prerequisite was that she had to eat this man first.
Hearing this, Mu Huaian let go of Yu Qinghuan and turned around to see Cheng Gongjin who had returned with changed clothes. "Teacher."
I thought to myself: In the time it took me to find my way here, the teacher had already changed his clothes and came over. He was really fast.
If Cheng Gongjin had not always been steady, Mu Huaian would have even thought that he had run here.
Yu Qinghuan followed Mu Huaian and called out without error, "Master Cheng."
Unexpectedly, Mu Huaian held her hand and said, "There's no need to be so distant. Just follow me and call me teacher."
Sang Ru outside the door heard these words clearly. He asked the girl to follow the young master and call Master Cheng "teacher" together?
Crazy, really crazy.
Yu Qinghuan's mind went blank for a moment, but when her eyes met Cheng Gongjin's, she saw that he still had a cold expression on his face, and immediately she felt like teasing him.
"teacher."
Her red lips curled up slightly, like a smile, but more like a teasing. Her voice was very soft and harmless, but she deliberately dragged out the ending tone, and her eyes were full of undisguised ambiguity.
In an instant, a barely perceptible irritation flashed across Cheng Gongjin's deep eyes, and he stared back at her without blinking.
"Since you two are not married yet, there is no need to shout like that."
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became weird.
Their eyes met, and Yu Qinghuan raised her red lips slightly. She saw through Cheng Gongjin. Although he was calculating with his mouth, he was probably cursing in his heart.
"Master Cheng is absolutely right. I will take note of this."
Mu Huaian hadn't expected the teacher to say that, and immediately felt that Yu Qinghuan had been wronged. He held her hand tightly, silently comforting her, and then said to Cheng Gongjin, "Teacher, I have decided on her for this life, whether we get married or not."
Yu Qinghuan pulled him and whispered, "Huaian, since Master Cheng doesn't like me to yell like that, I won't yell like that. It's okay."
Cheng Gongjin withdrew his gaze. How could he not see through Yu Qinghuan's little trick? But Mu Huaian was honest and thought he was making things difficult for him.
For a moment, he seemed to have become the evil person who interfered between the love between the two people.
He said "whatever" in a light tone, then walked past the two of them, walked to the table and sat down without looking at them again the whole time.
Mu Huaian pulled Yu Qinghuan to sit down as well. Cheng Gongjin and Mu Huaian sat next to each other, while Yu Qinghuan sat next to Mu Huaian. As soon as she looked up, she could see Cheng Gongjin.
Soon, the servants brought the dishes, three vegetarian dishes, two meat dishes, and chicken soup.
The three of them ate in silence until Mu Huaian said, "Teacher, I want to stay here for a while so that I can take care of Huanhuan."
Yu Qinghuan was surprised and looked up at him.
Cheng Gongjin's hand holding the chopsticks paused almost imperceptibly, his eyes drooping, his thick eyelashes casting a small shadow on his cold white skin, blocking the view of those around him. "She has food and drink here, and a doctor is taking care of her. What do you want to take care of her?"
Mu Huaian frowned, "I'm worried about her living here alone."
Cheng Gongjin then raised his eyes, his gaze falling precisely on Mu Huaian's face. There was no ripple in his eyes, but there was an unquestionable pressure in his eyes, "No."
The two words were clear and short, very cold and hard. The air around them instantly stagnated, leaving only three breathing sounds.
Yu Qinghuan tried to ease the tense atmosphere between the two, "Actually, I can do it alone."
Cheng Gongjin glanced at her, his tone no longer as cold and hard as before, but his usual calm and distant tone, "I'm not a human?"
Yu Qinghuan: “…” He is obviously old, but he is more fussy than those young people in their early twenties. He is really hard to deal with.
Mu Huaian tried to argue, "Teacher, I want to live with Ah Huan."
Unexpectedly, what responded to him was Cheng Gongjin's cold rejection, "No."
"Your most urgent task now is to take advantage of the new emperor's ascension to the throne and gain a firm foothold in the court, rather than getting bogged down in these romantic affairs."
Cheng Gongjin's explanation is just like him. Once he opens his mouth, there is no room for negotiation. It is more intimidating than any harsh words.
Mu Huaian wanted to say something, but Yu Qinghuan quietly pulled his clothes under the table, signaling him to stop talking.
Cheng Gongjin clearly didn't want him to stay, so no matter how much he said, it was useless because it was someone else's territory after all.
Mu Huaian endured it. After all, he had promised his teacher at the beginning, and he did bring Ah Huan out of the palace, so he couldn't go back on his word.
Although I can't watch over Ah Huan day and night, this is only temporary. Everything is for the purpose of better protecting her in the future.
He comforted himself in his heart, and even the delicacies on the table no longer tasted so good.
Yu Qinghuan didn't say anything. She picked up the vegetables and ate them, drinking the soup. Soon she was full.
The two of them did not pick up their chopsticks again, but did not put them down. They pretended to pick up dishes and occasionally glanced at Cheng Gongjin who was sitting in the main seat and eating slowly.
That hand, as white as jade, swayed in front of Yu Qinghuan. The joints were distinct and the blue veins on the back of the hand were faintly visible, rising and falling slightly as he picked up the food.
Some inappropriate images appeared uncontrollably in front of my eyes...
Yu Qinghuan's heartbeat quickened slightly, and he suddenly felt a little dry in the mouth. He swallowed and with difficulty shifted his gaze away from the hand.
Unexpectedly, when she looked away, she met Cheng Gongjin's eyes, and the two gazes suddenly collided!
Cheng Gongjin's action of picking up the food paused almost imperceptibly, his eyes were deep, as if he could penetrate Yu Qinghuan's body and understand her thoughts.
Yu Qinghuan's breath hitched, her long eyelashes trembled, trying to hide her guilty conscience and burning heat.
Cheng Gongjin's gaze did not move away, watching the guilty look that flashed across her face, a very subtle hint of amusement and scrutiny flashed across the depths of his eyes.
The look seemed to be asking: Have you seen enough?
Seeing that she was discovered, Yu Qinghuan became more confident after feeling guilty, and did not feel embarrassed at all for having her thoughts seen through.
She raised her eyelashes, revealing her sparkling eyes, and looked back with a bold and straightforward gaze. The corners of her eyes were slightly raised like hooks, and her red lips parted slightly and touched each other, silently saying: I haven't seen enough...
I want to see something else. Will you take it off for me?
Cheng Gongjin pursed his thin lips, his eyes dark as ink, bottomless.
