Chapter 50: Inform
Li Zheng felt him gripping her wrist a little harder, but pretended not to care and smiled faintly, "Young Master Wang, this is my brother. Brother, this is the Young Master Wang I told you about before, Wang Lang."
Wang Lang withdrew his gaze from Gu Chengze holding Li Zheng's wrist, clasped his hands together and nodded slightly, "Hello, Brother Li."
He didn't let go of her hand but nodded slightly, squinting his eyes, "Hello, Brother Wang. Did I disturb you?"
Wang Lang twitched the corner of his mouth and lowered his eyes. "No, I just finished speaking when Brother Li arrived. I won't disturb Brother Li and his sister's reunion. Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye, Young Master Wang." Li Zheng leaned forward slightly. After seeing Wang Lang walk away, she turned around and asked him, "Why are you here?" Her brows furrowed slightly.
He didn't say anything. Seeing her slightly frowned brow and her fingers ready to move, he said, "It's okay."
She was unhappy when she heard this. She broke free from his grip and glared at him, her voice slightly unhappy. "What's going on?"
He frowned and paused for a moment before saying, "I came here to accompany the prince."
Li Zheng was surprised when she heard it, "So fast?"
Gu Chengze understood what she meant and explained, "No, the general asked me to come along." Originally, the general's confidants had come to protect the prince, but since they wanted to promote him, they asked him to come along too. General Wang's confidants still couldn't stand him!
Li Zheng thought for a moment after hearing this, then asked, "Did the King of Qi bring many people with him?"
"Why do you ask?" But knowing what kind of person she was, he replied, "There aren't too many people, but they are all trustworthy. What's the matter?" She certainly wouldn't ask this for no reason.
"Well, I just wanted to ask the young master if I could have a bedroom to rest, but when I passed by a room, I heard people inside talking about the King of Qi." Li Zheng frowned slightly again, feeling that this matter seemed a bit troublesome.
"And then?" He looked at the frown, held the face with his hands, and stroked the eyebrows with his fingers.
She felt it, but didn't care. This matter was more important. "I don't know those two people, but one of them should be someone close to King Qi. It seems that he stole something from the study, gave it to someone else, and made King Qi look bad." If King Qi is not good, he can't be much better. After all, he is his boss's boss.
He paused for a moment and continued, "What does he look like?" Li Zheng described him, "Well, I haven't seen this person. I'll go look for him when I get back. Don't worry about it. How did you get here? And you ran into that guy, huh?" He pressed his forehead against her again, making her feel oppressed and uncomfortable, so she broke free.
"Isn't this boring? It's just right for me to come and play while Bao Ge'er is resting. Besides, how did I know that Wang Lang was coming? If I had known he was coming, I wouldn't have come!" Her tone was a little impatient, but she still didn't tell him about the man who saw her jumping down from the tree. In the final analysis, it was her carelessness. If she had told him, he would definitely tell her own story.
Seeing that her eyes were a little wandering, I knew that she had not finished speaking, but I did not continue to ask. Seeing that she was pouting and her expression was slightly gloomy, I rubbed my fingers together and felt that the touch just now was still there. I felt a little eager to do something. I looked around and saw that there was no one around, so I pulled her behind a tree.
"Hey, where are you going?" She asked, not knowing where he was pulling her. He pressed Li Zheng against the tree and leaned forward. "Hmm." Feeling the warmth of his lips, Li Zheng instinctively wanted to push him away, but then she thought about the look in Wang Lang's eyes and decided not to refuse. She had done nothing wrong and she would definitely stay away from Wang Lang from now on. No good would come of it if she met him.
Gu Chengze felt that the person under him no longer resisted, so he hugged her and deepened the kiss.
After a long while, Gu Chengze finally emerged from behind the tree and returned to the front yard. Li Zheng, on the other hand, was leaning against the tree, her breath a little hazy, her hair a little disheveled, her lips crimson, and she silently cursed Gu Chengze. She cleaned up briefly and didn't look for the young master again, returning to the guest room.
As Gu Chengze was walking, a man suddenly walked out from behind the tree in front of him. It was Qin You. He looked at Gu Chengze with a gossipy look on his face and winked at him, "Hey, that person is your fiancée." Qin You originally wanted to come with him, but he had a stomachache, so he went to the toilet first. When he came back, he saw Gu Chengze talking to a girl, so he didn't go forward. Who knew that after a while, he actually pulled the girl behind the tree. He quickly hid behind the tree. He didn't expect that this man who was always cold could be like this! He had never seen Gu Chengze's fiancée, but the only person who could make Gu Chengze show such an expression was probably his fiancée.
"Why are you here?"
"Oh, seeing you're like that, I'm sure it's true. You're such a lucky person. Haha." Qin You saw that he didn't reply but asked about something else, so he was sure it was right. "But you two are really destined to meet on your first trip." This time, General Wang pointed out not only Gu Chengze but also several other promising talents.
"Let's not talk about that for now. I just heard Ah Zheng say that she heard someone plotting in the guest room, and that someone stole something from the study. And that person is most likely someone close to the prince."
Seeing his serious expression, Qin You stopped playing around and said seriously, "So this guy is still here. What does he look like?"
After hearing Gu Chengze's description, he felt as if he had seen this person before. "I really think I've seen this person before, but I forgot where."
He'd heard he'd seen it, so it wasn't surprising. However, the most important thing was how to solve the problem. If I told the prince directly, he probably wouldn't believe me. It was obvious who to trust, a confidant or a newly emerged soldier. "Let's go back and make a plan."
"Um."
Li Zheng returned to the guest room and saw that Baoger was already asleep on the bed. Ayue was so careless that she actually fell asleep on the table. However, when she heard the door open, she woke up with a start.
As soon as he saw it was the girl, he felt relieved, "Girl, you're back? How are you?"
"Master said there's nothing left for now. You can sleep a little longer. We'll go back when Bao Ge'er wakes up."
"Hey, girl." She was very sleepy now, so she didn't bother to be polite with the girl. This was also because the girl was kind. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Li Zheng walked over to Bao Ge'er and covered him with the slightly overturned blanket. She sat there in a daze for a moment, then touched her lips again, her face flushing. This guy is really surprising. Just a few days ago, I felt like he was a novice, but today, he's... oh my, so embarrassing. But, well, I'm in a pretty good mood. Thinking of this, her face flushed even more.
