Chapter 378 The Empress Only Wants to Love One Person (29)



Gu Ruozhao had been cold to her before, so she had the urge to "tease" him.

But Gu Ruozhao has changed now, probably because of her efforts during this period, which has changed his impression of her.

She now has immense trust in Gu Ruozhao, almost without reservation.

Respect between the ruler and his subjects is what Gu Ruozhao most hopes to see.

But he is like this...

It's hard not to think too much.

Fei Wan took a deep breath and looked at him seriously:

"because……"

What I was about to say after careful consideration was interrupted by his low laugh.

"If Ah Wan doesn't take action, he will be snatched away by someone else."

At the end of the song, the chance to meet Ling Wu was not determined by the money they paid, but by painting a picture and handing it to Ling Wu, and it was up to Ling Wu to decide.

There was paper and pen in the private room, waiting for them to start writing.

Gu Ruozhao actually let her go find Master Ling Wu...

He doesn't seem to care at all.

Fei Wan originally picked up the pen, but then put it down.

She looked at Gu Ruozhao, then her gaze returned to the paper on the table:

"I don't think I've ever seen you paint..."

Gu Ruozhao understood the hidden meaning in her words. He smiled helplessly and said nothing.

He neither refused nor agreed, but expressed his meaning through actions.

This was the first time Fei Wan saw Gu Ruozhao painting. He lowered his eyebrows and sketched the outlines of things on the paper.

Every stroke was done with utmost care.

only……

The flowers and leaves in this painting barely bear any resemblance to the patterns on Lingwu's guqin.

He stopped writing, waited for the ink to dry, and called someone outside to deliver the painting.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw Fei Wan's complicated look.

"I haven't written for a long time, so I'm a bit rusty."

Gu Ruozhao smiled.

"And Ah Wan...isn't it clear to you that no matter how the painting turns out, you know his choice?"

This person just exposed her like that.

Gu Ruozhao had never received any intelligence before, but this time he keenly guessed the general idea from her few words. Not only that, he also cooperated with her.

"So next..."

Gu Ruozhao curled the corners of his lips and answered her question.

"Then we just have to wait for the fish to bite."

"I remember... you didn't really like tea before?"

Before Ling Wu arrived, Fei Wan was already attracted by Gu Ruozhao.

Gu Ruozhao poured himself cup after cup of tea. Noticing her gaze, he smiled gently and poured her another cup.

Although she is also boring, but...

She remembered that when Gu Ruozhao came to the palace to discuss matters with her before, they rarely drank tea.

Why this time?

In response, Gu Ruozhao paused, but only replied with one word.

"heat."

It's a bit noisy here, and for Gu Ruozhao who likes quietness, it may not be suitable for him.

In addition, it was a bit hot and humid in the summer, and Gu Ruozhao had never been here before, so it was normal that he was not used to it.

After Fei Wan figured it out, he stopped asking questions and instead watched the performance below and began to think about his future meeting with Master Ling Wu.

She deliberately leaked the news of her leaving the palace and exposing her whereabouts outside.

If the news is true... then I went after her from the beginning.

So...how should she respond and get the information out?

That... Ling Wu, will he try hard to please her when the time comes?

Gu Ruozhao paused. He was originally looking at the tea in the cup, but for some reason his gaze fell on that person.

As smart as he is,

He guessed her plan.

As a subject, he catered to her actions.

He clearly knew that these were just plans and she would not really commit to them.

However, he still had some selfish motives and didn't want to see her getting too close to the others.

It’s not so much heat as it is... irritability.

Gu Ruozhao lowered his eyes and drank the tea in one gulp. He closed his fingers and gently squeezed the teacup.

Even if her interactions with Ling Wu would only be a show...

As expected... there was no choice but to accept it.
