Chapter 54 Gu Xiyan is His

Qi Zhiyuan was taken aback, and quickly stopped him: "Young master, you can't! It's daytime, and the people in the Marquis of Wanqing's residence talk a lot, and you will only make Miss Gu's situation more difficult."

"Then go message Min'er and ask Miss Gu to come to my side, and you go to the door to pick up Miss Gu... that's all, I'll pick her up in person." Zhou Mu didn't care too much, just wanted to know that Gu Xiyan Is it okay?

Xu Zhiyuan felt that this was a solution, so he went to deliver news to Min'er.

Gu Xiyan, who was in Xiyuan, didn't know that Zhou Mu wanted to see her, until Min'er sneaked up to her, revealed her identity, and then conveyed Zhou Mu's intentions.

Gu Xiyan subconsciously touched her red and swollen face, a little hesitant.

Min'er only knew that there was a conflict in Xiyuan, but she didn't know that Miss Gu had also been slapped.

"It's not good for me to go to see you now, how about I wait until my face gets better?" Gu Xiyan hesitated.

Min'er was stunned for a moment before saying: "Young lady, why don't you go see the young master? Otherwise, it's not easy for the servants to explain to the young master."

And she didn't understand all the situation, the son didn't know that the girl's face was swollen like this, it was her dereliction of duty.

Gu Xiyan felt that Xi Yuan was really depressed, but her face was a little swollen anyway, wasn't she like this when she first met Zhou Mu?

Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem to matter.

At that moment, she no longer hesitated, put on the veiled hat, and accompanied by Qiu Shi, she left the Hou Mansion.After making sure that no suspicious person around found her, she entered the gate of Zhou's house.

But she didn't expect that when she entered Zhou's house, she saw Zhou Mu waiting at the door, and saw him waiting like this for a while.

"Is the girl okay?" Zhou Mu's fingertips itched slightly, and he really wanted to take off Gu Xiyan's veiled hat, but he held back.

Gu Xiyan took off her veiled cap, revealing half of her red and swollen face, "It's okay to get slapped!"

Zhou Mu was unprepared, suddenly seeing her red and swollen face, he couldn't help clenching his fists.

He stared at her red and swollen face, trying to say something, but his voice was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a word.

Gu Xiyan has never seen Zhou Mu like this before, his tight jaw line shows that he is not in a good mood, is it because her red and swollen face makes him worry?
"It's just that there was some misunderstanding with my aunt, and there were some quarrels." She explained softly.

Only then did Zhou Mu realize his gaffe, he got closer to her, and his voice couldn't help becoming softer: "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt, it will be fine in two days, but it looks a little scary, but it doesn't hurt at all." Gu Xiyan said, parting her lips and smiling: "Isn't it a bit ugly?"

Zhou Mu's heart was filled with various emotions.

He wanted to chop off Little Gu's hand right now, Gu Xiyan was his, how dare Little Gu?
When did Gu Xiyan become his person?

This thought suddenly flashed through Zhou Mu's mind, causing his emotions to surge.

"Actually, my slap is not in vain." Gu Xiyan suddenly had the desire to tell: "I know that this is His Majesty's matchmaking, and I also know that Mr. Xu is a firm-minded person, or let the situation develop Like this. Couldn’t the final result be that the third sister returned home injured, and the aunt was angry? Maybe when I didn’t realize it, I secretly hoped that the third sister would also experience the feeling of being rejected by others. To be honest, I’m not too Uncomfortable. Because of the humiliation I have suffered, the third sister also tasted the pride."

So her palm was not in vain, and she was not surprised by today's result.

The strange thing is that she is not afraid to let Zhou Mu see her ugliest face and darkest mind.

"Will the young master think I'm bad?" Gu Xiyan asked.

Zhou Mu looked at her peacefully, his eyes clear and far away: "People have three filths, anger, ignorance, and greed. You grew up in an environment like the Liu family, and it is rare to be able to discipline yourself. Human nature has many weaknesses, not only You have it, and so do I. If you dare to face up to your own heart, you are much better than many people. Besides, if it wasn't for others to betray you first, how could you betray others?"

If he had grown up in the Liu family's environment, he might not have done better than Gu Xiyan.

He turned around and went to the main house: "Miss Gu, come here!"

Gu Xiyan followed Zhou Mu as she said, until she entered Zhou Mu's bedroom.

Seeing Zhou Mu dig out a box of plasters, he asked her to sit down, as if planning to help her apply the plasters.

This made her a little uncomfortable: "I can do it myself."

Zhou Mu glanced at her, and said in an unquestionable tone, "Sit still and don't move."

Gu Xiyan immediately sat upright obediently, with her spine straight, her cute appearance was particularly endearing.

Zhou Mu thought to herself, how could Little Gu do anything with such a well-behaved and sensible girl?
"The next time someone strikes you, you have to know how to avoid it and don't just bear it. Some villains just like to bully a little girl like you, so you don't have to bear it." Zhou Mu applied the ointment and rubbed it on Gu Xiyan's face superior.

At this moment, he also forgot about the defense between men and women, and only wanted to restore Gu Xiyan's eye-catching red and swollen parts to their beautiful snow-white color before.

"The incident happened suddenly, and there was no time to hide. My aunt has been kind to me in nurturing me. To me, she is not a villain." Gu Xiyan explained.

If there is no little Gu these years, she will not live a stable life, right?

Xiao Gu just habitually chooses her most beloved direct daughter among Liu Junyan and her.

She just belonged to the one who was given up in other people's choices again.

"But that's not the reason why Mrs. Gu slapped you." Zhou Mu only focused on talking to Gu Xiyan, and accidentally touched her smooth cheek while applying the medicine.

The slippery touch from his fingertips made his mind go blank for a moment, and then what flashed before his eyes was the scene of her taking the traditional Chinese medicine last time...

Gu Xiyan saw that Zhou Mu suddenly stopped, she asked suspiciously: "Have you applied the medicine, sir?"

Zhou Mu woke up like a dream, and he stuffed the ointment into Gu Xiyan's hand: "After you go back, apply it three times a day, and it will reduce swelling and blood stasis in one day."

Gu Xiyan took the ointment, "Thank you, my lord."

Seeing Zhou Mu rushing out, her steps were a little messy, she followed curiously: "What's wrong, young master?"

Instead, Zhou Mu quickened her pace and disappeared from her sight in an instant.

Gu Xiyan couldn't catch up anymore, she stood in place with a dazed expression, not understanding what happened.

Seeing Zhou Mu leaving in a hurry, as if fleeing in a hurry, did she misunderstand?

Don't say that Gu Xiyan didn't understand what happened, Qi Zhiyuan also stood there stupidly.

He only saw the young master come out in a hurry, and then hurried away, leaving Miss Gu as a guest, what should I do?
At the moment when Qi Zhiyuan and Gu Xi looked at each other in dismay, Mother Yin appeared: "Young lady likes to eat the cakes you brought over last time. Can you teach me how to make this old slave?"
