The Regent's little feral cat bites again

Chapter 256 Thank You General For Favor
Gu Chengyuan ignored him, and only looked at the direction Xuan Yu left, thoughtfully.

Outside the hall, Xuan Yu was still walking on the road in a calm manner. Behind him, Lu Dong took a step forward and said silently, "My lord, this is Lanzhou..."

Xuan Yu glanced at him, his eyes darkened: "You mean, I shouldn't be so impatient and lose my temper at him?"

Lu Dong pursed his lips and took a step back: "This subordinate is talking too much."

Xuan Yu squinted his eyes, and said in a clear voice, "Lu Dong, I have been waiting for this moment for five years, and no one can stop me."

Lu Dong silently lowered his head and didn't say a word, he thought, the Lord's worries were really too much.
-
The dinner party begins.

When Xuan Yinruo arrived, neither Gu Chengyuan nor Xuan Yu came, she ignored the amazement or curiosity of everyone in the hall, and sat in her own seat.

The moment Gu Chengyuan entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he fixed his gaze on Xuan Yinruo on the right side of the hall.

At the same time, he also noticed that almost all the eyes in the hall were focused on her. As expected by Mo Xuan, Gu Chengyuan's face darkened in an instant.

He walked directly to Xuan Yinruo's side, his voice obviously displeased: "Did you not wear the clothes I prepared for you?"

That general uniform is still men's clothing, with rustic colors and styles, who would wear it?

Holding a wine glass, Xuan Yinruo shook her head obediently. The two round buns on her head swayed with her movements, very cute.

Gu Chengyuan's eyes became deeper and deeper, and the thought of locking up this disobedient woman came up now.

Suppressing the hostility in his heart, he pinched Xuan Yinruo's tender cheeks, and even coaxed and lied: "Hey, go change your outfit? Just show me this one in private, huh?"

Xuan Yinruo shook his head: "Who said I wore it for you to see? I wore it for my brother. My brother used to like me wearing pink clothes the most."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound at the door. Xuan Yinruo turned his head to look, and he saw Xuan Yu in military uniform. His figure was straight and his face was as stern as ever.

Xuan Yinruo's eye sockets became wet all at once.

This is her brother, who loved her the most since she was a child, and doted on her the most, wishing she could pick off all the stars and give them to her brother.

However, he seemed to be thinner, and the contours of his face were clearer, and his brows and eyes were not as gentle as before, full of coldness.

Her brother must have lost a lot of weight.

Xuan Yinruo's two lines of tears fell instantly, seeing Xuan Yu's eyes just bumping into her, she quickly lowered her head and deliberately avoided it.

Seeing Xuan Yinruo's appearance, Gu Chengyuan felt a little distressed. For a while, all the little jealous emotions disappeared, and he just wanted to hug her and kiss her to comfort her.

It's just that Xuan Yu is here, if Gu Chengyuan is too intimate, he is afraid that it will backfire, he squeezed his thin lips tightly, endured it again and again, finally squeezed Xuan Yinruo's hand, then got up and left, and returned to the main seat.

The first time Xuan Yu came in, he saw Xuan Yinruo. Although he didn't look directly at her, he didn't miss the expression on her face. Naturally, he also saw her tears.

Xuan Yu clenched his hands, warning himself over and over again to restrain himself, now is not the time...

After a while, he withdrew his gaze, walked to the seat opposite Xuan Yinruo and sat down as if nothing had happened, without giving Xuan Yinruo another look, as indifferent as a stranger.

Everyone in the hall noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, for example, Xuan Yu's attitude was so bad that it didn't look like he was here to negotiate a peace.Another example is that Gu Chengyuan's good attitude made them think he was a fake regent.

Then whoever revealed the identities of Xuan Yu and Xuan Yinruo, everyone understood, oh~ So this is my brother-in-law.

The brother-in-law became the envoy of the enemy country. This peculiar status made some veteran officials present worry about Qi Wenguo's future, and the rest were more gossip.

The banquet was about to go on, Xuan Yin Ruocai finally stabilized his emotions, took a deep breath, stood up with a glass of wine, walked towards Xuan Yu, stood in front of him, spoke calmly, and smiled: "General Xuan came from afar , It’s exhausting to travel all the way. Xiaoyue offers a cup to the general on behalf of the regent.”

The audience was silent, and they all silently watched this weird scene. Although the two people looked very similar, but what they said just now... and they really didn't look like brothers and sisters, it was really unpredictable.

Gu Chengyuan sat at the top without saying a word, watching this scene quietly. This is something that belongs to their brother and sister. With his status at this moment, the best way is not to participate.

Xuan Yu's black eyes were dark and cold, his clear jaw line was tense, and the corners of his mouth were drawn into a straight line. He didn't move for a long time, as if he didn't accept Xuan Yinruo's toast.

Xuan Yinruo also stubbornly refused to go back, staring at Xuan Yu, holding the wine glass in front of his chest, as if if Xuan Yu didn't accept it, he could go on like this forever.

After a long time, seeing Xuan Yinruo's arm trembling slightly and almost unable to hold the wine glass, Xuan Yu's eyes flashed a hint of helplessness and compromise. He took a glass of wine from the table, stood up and drank it down, and then He sat down and didn't say a word during the whole process.

Xuan Yinruo, however, seemed to be satisfied, with a smile like a flower, and his foggy eyes were shining, he drank the wine in his hand, and his posture was a little more chic: "Thank you, General, for your face."

Both of them knew it well.

Xuan Yinruo toasted to show that he was on the same front as Gu Chengyuan, but Xuan Yu's refusal to accept it at the beginning just showed his hostility towards Gu Chengyuan.

But in the end, he drank the glass of wine. At least, he forgave Xuan Yinruo.

After that, Xuan Yinruo didn't talk to Xuan Yu, but for some reason, everyone obviously felt that the atmosphere on the court seemed to have become more harmonious.

After the banquet was over, Xuan Yinruo went back to the General's Mansion, and because he drank some wine at night, he fell asleep in bed not long after.

Suddenly, feeling a warm touch, Xuan Yinruo frowned, raised his hand and pushed him, muttering: "Gu Chengyuan, stop making trouble and go to sleep."

Gu Chengyuan lightly pecked Xuan Yinruo's lips once and for all, then heaved a long sigh and buried it in Xuan Yinruo's neck: "Xiao Qi, I'm sorry. I lied to you before."

Xuan Yinruo opened his eyes and became sober for a moment. After a while, he heard Gu Chengyuan's deep voice: "I told you before, I can accept you leaving me. Actually it's not, I'm very scared. I'm afraid of you The choice is not mine... the thought of you leaving me makes me want to kill everyone...everyone who stops us from being together."

Gu Chengyuan's voice was broken, and the content was disorganized.

She sat up and smelled a strong smell of alcohol on Gu Chengyuan's body, and frowned: "Did you drink again after the banquet?"

"Yeah." Gu Chengyuan, who had drunk too much, was exceptionally obedient, and replied solemnly, "He Jingshi."
