Chapter 102

Su Xiaoxiao and Jun Ruoli stayed in the Gu mansion until the evening before Gu Nianqing regained some sense.

At this moment, there were only the three of them left in the mourning hall, and Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help shivering when the night wind blew into the mourning hall.

Jun Ruoli put her arms around Su Xiaoxiao's shoulders, and asked softly, "Is it cold?"

Su Xiaoxiao's hands and feet were numb, and she replied: "A little bit."

At this moment, Gu Nianqing said, "You don't have to stay with me here, I'm fine."

"Have you calmed down now?" Jun Ruoli asked Su Xiaoxiao to lean in his arms, wrapping her hands around Su Xiaoxiao's.

Gu Nianqing narrowed her eyes and hummed softly.

Jun Ruoli's parents were gone, so he couldn't think of how to comfort Gu Nianqing.Who would not feel sad when his father passed away?

Rather than saying [-] sentences of mourning, it is better to make people feel sad.Even if the time may be longer, but after the sadness, we must always cheer up.

Now Gu Nianqing has calmed down a little, Jun Ruoli asked: "You must have checked it, is it Jun Yin's handwriting?"

Gu Nianqing shook her head, and replied: "There is no sign of injury or poisoning, the cause of death is indeed drowning."

Jun Ruoli frowned and said, "But I always feel a little suspicious."

"I don't know if Junyin's handwriting is now, or it may be because of me." Gu Nianqing clenched her fists and said, "When I returned home that night, I told him the truth. My father was loyal to Junyin all his life, but I destroyed him Faith and perseverance.”

Su Xiaoxiao's heart sank, but she didn't speak.

Jun Ruoli's eyes flickered slightly, and she said, "The matter hasn't been investigated yet, so it's better not to draw a conclusion too early. Even if it's your fault, I can't completely blame you."

Gu Nianqing didn't answer the words, and burned another three sticks of incense for Father Gu.

"Junyin's side, I can send someone to investigate. Do you need me to send some people to your side?" Jun Ruoli asked.

"No need." Gu Nianqing replied, "There is no guarantee that Junyin will not send someone to investigate the cause of his father's death. Father is a small censor. There shouldn't be any secret guards or knights in the mansion. You don't have to send someone to my side, I can protect myself."

Since Gu Nianqing didn't accept it, Jun Ruoli didn't insist anymore.Firstly, what Gu Nianqing said was indeed reasonable, and secondly, he respected Gu Nianqing.

Gu Nianqing is not as carefree as usual, on the contrary he is thoughtful.Even if there is a huge change now, Jun Ruoli believes that he, who has regained some sanity, will not let him down.

Jun Ruoli pulled Su Xiaoxiao up and said softly, "Let's go! Let's go back home."

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Gu Nianqing, a little worried, and asked in a low voice: "Do you want me to go back by myself, and you stay with Mr. Gu? Or can we two stay overnight today?"

Hearing this, Jun Ruoli said helplessly, "No need. Brother Gu probably wanted to drive us away a long time ago!"

Gu Nianqing glanced at the two of them, and a look of emotion flashed in his eyes, but he said: "I really wanted to drive you away a long time ago. I can't even say a few words to my father for the last time when you are here."

"I'm leaving now." Jun Ruoli said seriously, "If you need it, come to me anytime."

Gu Nianqing nodded slightly and sent them out of the mourning hall.When the two walked to the front hall, they saw the butler Ding Bo, who took Gu Nianqing's place to see them out.

After Su Xiaoxiao got into the carriage, she couldn't help asking: "Is it true that no one will be sent?"

Jun Ruoli hummed lightly, and replied: "Brother Gu's consideration is right, I respect his opinion."

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao didn't ask any more questions.She leaned her head gently on Jun Ruoli's shoulder, like a bird cuddling up to its master.

"You've worked hard today, go to sleep if you're sleepy!" Jun Ruoli hugged Su Xiaoxiao's shoulders to prevent her from slipping down when she fell asleep.

Su Xiaoxiao rubbed Jun Ruoli's shoulder twice instead of shaking her head, and whispered, "I'm not sleepy. It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable seeing Mr. Gu today."

Jun Ruoli felt a little sore in her heart, frowned slightly, and asked, "Xiao Xiao expressed that she cared about other men very much in front of me, so you're not afraid that I'll take it easy?"

Su Xiaoxiao was taken aback, and quickly explained: "I don't care about Mr. Gu, not... It is always sad to see people lose their loved ones. And I can't help but think of you. I can't imagine how you survived at that time. I feel even worse."

With a smile on the corner of her mouth, Jun Ruoli said: "So Xiaoxiao is loving me?"

Su Xiaoxiao feels a little helpless, Xindao Jun Ruoli's focus is really strange!But today she didn't want to complain about him, nor did she want to turn against him.

Gently holding Jun Ruoli's hand, Su Xiaoxiao said seriously: "Yes! I love you."

Jun Ruoli didn't speak, but held Su Xiaoxiao's hand tightly.Su Xiaoxiao's hands are always warm and cold, but now that Jun Ruoli is holding her, she feels that her hands are very hot, and even her heart is warmed.

Gu's mourning hall
After seeing off Jun Ruoli and Su Xiaoxiao, Ding Bo went to the mourning hall.Seeing that Gu Nianqing was kneeling straight, he threw a handful of Mingyu into the brazier.

Ding Bo thinks that Gu Nianqing may be a little dandy and rebellious, but he is not without filial piety.He sighed and said to Gu Nianqing: "The young master has been kneeling for a day, please rest for a while! The servant is guarding in the mourning hall."

Gu Nianqing shook her head and said, "Ding Bo don't worry about me, I'm not tired."

Ding Bo couldn't hold back his tears in the end. "The young master is sad now. When the adult was here, why didn't the young master follow the adult? Now that the adult is gone, is the young master what the adult wants to see?"

Gu Nianqing's heart ached and she didn't refute, because what Ding Bo said was true to a certain extent.He, Gu Nianqing, is an unfilial and disobedient son!

Ding Bo actually had resentment in his heart, but he could feel Gu Nianqing's sadness, no amount of blame would change the fact, and he finally couldn't bear to say more serious things.

"Young master, go back to your room and rest for a while! There are still many things that the young master needs to do tomorrow, so the slave will guard the mourning hall carefully. The young master should listen to the slave's persuasion!"

Gu Nianqing threw down the last handful of scorpion, then got up from the ground with difficulty, and said obediently: "I listen to Ding Bo, and I will leave this place to Ding Bo."

Ding Bo nodded and replied, "Don't worry, young master!"

Gu Nianqing didn't say any more, and dragged her numb legs back to her room.There was no change in the house, it was what it was when he left, and it was what it is now, without the slightest smell of dust.

Gu Nianqing's eyes were sore.Even though his father had told him that it had nothing to do with him, his room still had to be cleaned every day.

Gu Nianqing walked to the bed with heavy steps, but just as she was about to sit down, she saw something red on the opposite desk.

Wiping away the tears from her eyes, Gu Nianqing walked directly to the desk, only to see a red cloth bag on the desk.

He opened the cloth bag and found a letter inside.Trembling, Gu Nianqing picked up the letter, and with a little moonlight, she saw the words on the envelope - from my son.

 Thanks to Xiao Taozi, Seven Star Dragon, Whose Tears Are Flying for their recommendation tickets.

  It's Monday! It's a new week.
