Gu Lin Chao’s heart suddenly went into turmoil.
He looked away in a panic and said in a dull voice, “This King is not hungry, you can eat by yourself.” After saying that, he walked away at a fast pace.
Seeing this, Wen Qi Qi shrugged her shoulders and lowered her head to eat by herself.
Gu Lin Chao walked farther away before stopping.
Does she even know what she is doing?
Does she not know that doing that is too intimate?
He pursed his lips.
He stood alone for a long time, and his panicked heart gradually calmed down.
He made sure she had finished eating before walking back.
When he walked back to the carriage, Wen Ting Xuan was leaning against the carriage, whispering something to Wen Qi Qi in the carriage.
The enchanting foreign costume he was wearing had already been changed.
Seeing Gu Lin Chao approaching, Wen Ting Xuan immediately stood up and bowed towards him, “Greetings, Regent.”
Gu Lin Chao’s face eased and he said in a warm voice, “No need to be polite. Let’s go together.”
Wen Ting Xuan hesitated. He looked at Wen Qi Qi and when he saw her nod, he said, “Yes, I’ll have to trouble the Regent.”
“We are all one family, no need to be polite.” Gu Lin Chao said in a slow voice.
Wen Ting Xuan smiled and was a little surprised in his heart. He didn’t expect his brother-in-law, the Regent, to be so gracious and easy-going, and to treat him as one of his own.
He was both surprised and a little happy.
Hearing the conversation between them, Wen Qi Qi was also a bit surprised.
She did not expect Gu Lin Chao to treat her family so well.
At this time, Gu Yi and Xiao Yan walked over.
“Imperial Uncle and Imperial Aunt, it’s already late. You should stay at the house for one night first and return to the capital tomorrow.” Gu Yi proposed. Although he was afraid of his Imperial Uncle, he was more in awe. Now that it was dark, it was really unsafe to rush the night journey, and he sincerely hoped that his Imperial Uncle and Imperial Aunt, could stay at his mansion for one night.
Gu Lin Chao originally intended to rush back to the capital overnight, but ……
His gaze fell on Wen Qi Qi’s slender shoulders, and after a pause, he nodded his head in agreement, “It’s fine.”
Gu Yi’s face showed delight, “Then Nephew will go first so that the servants can clean up the chambers.”
“Mm.” Gu Lin Chao nodded his head.
Gu Yi said, “Imperial Aunt, then this Nephew will go back to the manor to wait for you.”
Wen Qi Qi was still wondering how Gu Lin Chao got another nephew. When she heard that, she nodded with a smile, “Good nephew, thank you for your hard work.”
Gu Yi: “……”
The other party is obviously two years younger than he is, but she has the nerve to call him a good nephew.
How can she say this “good nephew”?
He found out that this Imperial Aunt looks pretty and well-behaved, but inside is a rowdy and unrestrained master.
In addition to running to Tunzhou city behind Imperial Uncle’s back, she even ran to a brothel and sang to so many men. At the end of the day, when she found out that Imperial Uncle was looking for her, she even tried to run away.
At that time, he clearly saw Imperial Uncle’s face was very ugly and grim. He thought that this little imperial aunt would certainly not escape heavy punishment, but as a result, things developed in a direction that he did not expect.
This little imperial aunt of his was able to coax his imperial uncle to calm down and not question her, and at the end, he even went to buy her a bowl of wontons himself.
When had he ever seen his imperial uncle lower his dignity like that?
This little imperial aunt of his was really something.
Under the sky, there is no other person who can drive Imperial Uncle like this, except her.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Yi thought a lot.
He thought that this little imperial aunt was really not an ordinary person. He had to become friends with her.
In the future, if something happens, he can also ask for her to put in a good word in front of his uncle.
Just thinking about it, then do it.
He immediately said attentively: “Imperial Aunt is too much. It’s not hard for this nephew. If I had known that Imperial Aunt would come to Tunzhou, this nephew would have been at your service.”
