Chu Ziqiao looked at him in disbelief.

"It's because my Baicaotang has little profit, and all the business has been taken away by the restaurant across the street. There are many restaurants in the city, but there are not many special dishes. Maybe those people have already gotten tired of eating there."

Maybe she can find another way and create her own business area.

"Okay, since you want to give it a try, I'll let Ziqiao help."

Tingya agreed very readily. Gu Yunru enthusiastically invited the two of them to eat around the fire. Soon the stove was set up, and it was steaming and smoking, with a fragrant aroma in the air.

"By the way, I heard that Lord Xie came to the mansion to make a scene because of Bingyan. Is it true or not?"

Tingya ate vegetables and looked at Gu Yunru curiously.

"Indeed, he came here and wanted to report me to the emperor. This old man is unreasonable, so there is no need for me to respect the elderly and love the young anymore." Gu Yunru is not the kind of soft persimmon that can be bullied by others. She treats others the way they treat her, and she is very fair.

Chu Ziqiao and Tingya looked at each other, and Tingya pursed her lips, "I always feel that this matter is not over yet, you must be extremely careful."

"Don't worry. Who am I? Am I going to be bullied by others?" Gu Yunru didn't take this matter to heart at all.

"The assassin has not been caught yet. Who do you think this assassin could be?"

Chu Ziqiao also vaguely heard what happened that night. The assassin was clearly targeting Rong Zhen. Fortunately, Miss Xie sacrificed herself for the cause. Otherwise, Rong Zhen would have died from excessive blood loss. That night, fate had already begun to change.

"I'm not sure either, but I feel like something big is going to happen soon. No matter what, if the assassin shows up, that would be easy to deal with. I should give Bingyan an explanation."

"Yeah." Tingya nodded in agreement.

Looking at her round belly, Gu Yunru said with envy: "You are so lucky, a little life will be born soon."

"You can, too."

Ting Ya smiled, Gu Yunru waved her hands hurriedly and said, "I can't do that. You all know that Rong Zhen and I treat each other with respect. Recently, because of Xie Bingyan's incident, he hasn't come to Ginkgo Garden for a long time. Occasionally, he just stands at the door, takes a look and leaves."

Whenever Gu Yunru fell asleep, Qingxing would come and tell her that Rong Zhen had appeared, but only for a very short time and disappeared in an instant.

Tingya glanced at Chu Ziqiao. It seemed that the relationship between the two was really bumpy and had not yet come to fruition. She took Gu Yunru's hand and comforted her, "Don't worry. You know Ah Zhen's temper. With such a big thing happening recently, he must be having a headache because of the assassin."

"Yes, of course I know that he is worried about the assassin." Gu Yunru sighed silently. She had only spent one night with Rong Zhen, but she would think of that beautiful night from time to time. A girl's heart is always full of spring, and it's okay to fantasize occasionally. It's a pity to have a handsome husband but not be able to take him all over.

After a short gathering with friends, Gu Yunru had almost finished drinking, so she asked Qingxing and Qingshuang to send them all out. She sat on the swing woven with a fence, holding the jar of wine and burping. Qingxing came forward and quickly took the jar of wine in her arms and put it aside.

"Princess, you've drunk too much again!"

"What's wrong with me just drinking to warm myself up? We are in the yard, not anywhere else." Gu Yunru had a lot of worries in his mind, and he could only feel better when drinking.

"Your Highness..." Qing Xing was just about to persuade her to go inside the house to warm up when she saw a tall figure walking out from outside the yard.

"What king or not? Are you trying to scare me with him again?" Gu Yunru burped and glared at her with displeasure.

"Princess, the prince is really here." Qingxing didn't lie to her. Rong Zhen just stood in front of her. Gu Yunru was so scared that she quickly stood up holding the wine jar and looked at him.

"Why... are you here?" Gu Yunru tried hard to stay sober. She still remembered that she had made a fool of herself because of drinking too much. She couldn't let him look down on her again. Rong Zhen didn't say anything. He took the jar of wine from her arms and handed it to Qingxing.

"Come with me." Rong Zhen said sinisterly.

Qingxing stood stupidly aside holding the jar of wine, watching the princess being pulled in by him, and smiled.

"Hey, why are you holding me? Let go, I can walk by myself!" Gu Yunru was caught by him in a bad mood.

Rong Zhen pushed her against the wall and suddenly grabbed her smooth little chin. Seeing him standing in front of him so gloomily, she seemed a little scared. Her whole body became restless. She swallowed silently and stared at him vigilantly, "What are you going to do?"

"What do you think I'm going to do?"

"How should I know? What are you going to do? You pervert." Gu Yunru snorted in displeasure and turned her head away. Unexpectedly, Rong Zhen became interested and directly held her chin and kissed her tender lips.

"Um..." Gu Yunru wanted to struggle out of his arms, but he held her firmly in his grasp and she couldn't move.

Qingxing sneaked to the door, listened to the noise inside the house, and smiled slyly.

After a long while, their lips parted. Gu Yunru pushed him in anger, "Why do you always take advantage of others?"

"Taking advantage of someone's misfortune? You are my legally married wife, I can do whatever I want, how can this be considered taking advantage of someone's misfortune?" Rong Zhen stretched out his hand and slowly touched her snow-white skin. He was deeply moved by the stubbornness in her eyes. She always looked extremely angry, which moved him deeply.

"The funeral in the mansion just ended. Do you think it's appropriate for you to do this?" Gu Yunru couldn't help but feel that he was a bit cold-blooded. Bingyan had just passed away not long ago, and the seventh day had just passed. Treating her like this was probably unfair to Bingyan.

Gu Yunru's words reminded him of what Xie Bingyan had said to him when she was struggling to death beside the bed.

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Yunru looked at him standing in front of her like a statue, motionless, with a deep gaze emitting a faint cold light. Did he feel ashamed of what he just said? This man is always arrogant, how could he have a sense of shame? "Hey, if you don't say anything, I will take it as your consent!"

"What do you mean by tacit consent?" Rong Zhen looked at Gu Yunru in confusion, and the things that Gu Yunru had just imagined in his mind disappeared instantly.

"Nothing... Actually, I just want to ask you, are you sincere or fake towards Xie Bingyan?" Although Xie Bingyan had left, the trace of Xie Bingyan had not completely disappeared. She was eager to know whether Xie Bingyan existed in his heart.
