Chapter 321 Growing Slow
Although Gu Jin said that, he couldn't help but start making plans in his heart.
The next day, as soon as Gu Jin returned to the mansion, he summoned Gu Renjie to his study. The entire study was surrounded by people, and the father and son stayed in the study for two whole hours before coming out.
As for what was discussed, no one except the two people involved knows the details.
Gu Shuyan took advantage of this break to visit the Yun residence again.
"Young Miss has arrived. Master is currently handling official business. Should I go in and inform him?"
Today, the person guarding outside the study was not Zhong Lin, but a completely new face.
Gu Shuyan shook her head upon hearing this: "I'll go in myself!"
After saying that, Gu Shuyan took the brocade box from Mingyu's hand and carefully walked inside.
Pushing open the door, Yun Yichen was not disturbed by the faint noises. Seeing that he was still focused, Gu Shuyan gently put down the brocade box and then slowly walked to the table.
Standing beside him, Gu Shuyan couldn't help but lean her head against his back.
"What's wrong?" Yun Yichen still didn't look up, but reached back with one hand and hugged Gu Shuyan tightly.
"It's nothing, it's just that Mother found out about us," Gu Shuyan muttered.
"I know, it's alright."
Yesterday, the Marquis of Jinning's wife proposed marriage, a major event that the secret guards had already reported. In addition, the conversation between the mother and daughter had naturally reached Yun Yichen's ears.
How did you know?
Gu Shuyan blurted out, and before Yun Yichen could speak, she tapped herself on the head.
"How foolish of me, I had completely forgotten that you were here with me."
Gu Shuyan's annoyed expression successfully hardened the Prime Minister's reaction. He threw down his pen and quickly reached out to rub Gu Shuyan's head.
"I'm already stupid, and if I keep hitting it, I'll become even stupider."
Yun Yichen spoke in a serious tone, but there was a hint of teasing in his eyes.
"Yun Yichen." Gu Shuyan had come seeking comfort, and upon hearing his words, her face immediately turned angry.
Seeing her angry expression, Yun Yichen's fatigue from the whole day suddenly disappeared, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his icy face.
"Alright, alright, how could my wife be stupid? Tell me, among all the young ladies in the capital, which one could outwit both princes like my wife?"
As Yun Yichen spoke, he pulled Gu Shuyan into his arms. Gu Shuyan was no longer the little girl who could only hug his leg. Although it was still a bit difficult to hug her waist, at least he could hug her now.
"You know I'm designing them?" Gu Shuyan asked with certainty.
"I know, I'll support you no matter what you want to do, just one thing: don't take any risks."
Thinking back to what happened at Minister Sun's residence that day, Yun Yichen still felt lingering fear. If it weren't for Gu Shuyan's high vigilance, he probably would have fallen into Luo Yuying's trap that day.
"I know what I'm doing. I won't act unless I'm absolutely certain. Besides, I still have you, don't I?"
That day, Gu Shuyan sensed something was wrong and had her guards send a message to Yun Yichen. Sure enough, Luo Yuying made a move against her, trying to marry her into the Duke of Anguo's mansion with such clumsy methods. It's time for the people of the Duke of Anguo's mansion to suffer.
Yun Yichen felt very warm upon hearing Gu Shuyan's words; the feeling of being needed by his little wife was simply wonderful.
"Shushu, I've been giving you nourishing foods every day, so why are you still growing so slowly?"
