At night, Gu Jingcheng was lying on the soft couch. The tip of his nose smelled the fragrance of the quilt covering him. It was the smell of the sun, and it was also the subtle fragrance of Su Xiaomu's body.

She seems to never put on makeup or powder, she is naturally sculpted and has a natural and refined beauty.

Gu Jingcheng only felt that he slept extremely peacefully today, and he had not slept so peacefully for a long time.

As usual, Su Xiaomu slept on the bed next to him.

The two of them also talked about everything. Gu Jingcheng had already expressed his feelings, and he felt that he was no longer as uneasy as before.

Su Xiaomu had already promised him that he would never ask him about Li Shu before the imperial examination.

Now he still has a chance to change the current situation between the two of them.

Gu Jingcheng slept peacefully and woke up early the next day.

It was because he was not in good condition yesterday that the Master gave him an extra day off and told him to stay at home and rest.

Gu Jingcheng took this opportunity to come to the farm to find Su Xiaomu, and had to get up early to go back the next day.

However, Gu Jingcheng didn't feel that getting up early was painful at all, because if he hadn't come yesterday, he wouldn't have had the chance to explain things clearly to Su Xiaomu, and he wouldn't be as relaxed as he is now.

Gu Jingcheng was in a very good mood all the way back to the city, but as soon as he got off the carriage, a servant came towards him, holding a food box and a letter in his hand.

The slave worked for a living in a wealthy family. He had seen a lot of the world, so he naturally knew that the man in front of him was one of the most popular talents in the city today.

He has a humble status, so he naturally respects such a person with humility: "This is the breakfast prepared by my lady for the young master. My young lady will hold a poetry meeting in the mansion in a few days, because she knows that Mr. Gu has just crowned the prince, so he is especially

Come and invite Mr. Gu to the poetry gathering."

The servant stretched out his hand, intending to hand the food box and letter to Gu Jingcheng with a look of great treasure.

However, Gu Jingcheng, who had just won the favor of his own daughter-in-law, would naturally not accept the attentiveness of other women.

Gu Jingcheng rejected the slave without thinking. He looked at the slave. Although his eyes were not cold, the slave was shivering a little in the cold weather on this hot summer day.

"I already have a family."

The servant did not expect that this talented man who was crowned in the city would already have a family at a young age.

But he thought of what the young lady had told him when he went out, and he bit the bullet and said: "It doesn't matter even if you have a family, my young lady just admires the young master's talent and wants to get some guidance from the young master in calligraphy."

, If the young master is willing, my young lady will definitely thank you very much."

"Now that we have a family, how can we teach your young lady about her knowledge?" Gu Jingcheng retorted without thinking, "There are many famous students in the capital. Please ask your young lady to find someone else and don't waste too much time on Gu."

After saying this, Gu Jingcheng walked directly past the slave and walked inside.

Zhou Lin got up early today and went out to have breakfast. He had just arrived in Fucheng and felt that everything was new.

So he had been watching the show at the door just now. When he saw Gu Jingcheng rejecting the slave so mercilessly, Zhou Lin walked up to him and smiled maliciously.

"Our Mr. Gu is really a good girl. In a few days, one or two girls have fallen in love with you. It really makes me envious. How come I am with you every day and I don't get a trace of your love?"

Fate? If those girls are interested in me..."

"That girl from the Wu family sent you a letter a few days ago, why didn't you eagerly pick it up?" Gu Jingcheng gave him a merciless look.

"If you feel that it's not lively enough around you now, I'll tell Miss Wu for you and ask her to come to you again and give you a chance to add fragrance to your red sleeves."

After Gu Jingcheng said coldly, he looked past him and wanted to pack up his pen and ink to prepare for class later.

But Zhou Lin was used to being mean-mouthed in front of him, so when he saw that he was unwilling, he insisted on being mean.

He kept chattering behind Gu Jingcheng, but today he just felt uncomfortable if he didn't see Gu Jingcheng's face change.

"I really want to know Mrs. Su, does she know that there are so many girls out there who like you?"

Gu Jingcheng paused as he walked forward.

"If Mrs. Su knew that her husband, that is, you, would attract the admiration and admiration of many women every time he attended poetry gatherings and banquets, I'm afraid she wouldn't let you go out to attract bees and butterflies like now."

Gu Jingcheng turned back directly this time. His eyes fell coldly on Zhou Lin, and he said softly with thin lips: "I know you are joking, but I am really angry."

Today, he really wanted to let Zhou Lin experience what it means to have trouble come out of his mouth.

He didn't feel anything about most of what Zhou Lin said, but when he heard him say that being too popular with women might make Su Xiaomu angry, it was difficult for him to feel at ease.

Gu Jingcheng finally managed to ease the relationship between him and Su Xiaomu. If there was a possibility of further improvement, he would never allow anyone or any factor to affect their relationship again.

"Hey...when you cause trouble for me, can you be gentler?"

Zhou Lin knew that he was playing with fire and self-immolating today. The way he looked at Gu Jingcheng, every time he looked like this, someone would always be unlucky, and eight times out of ten, he would be the unlucky one.

Sigh... isn't this just like shooting oneself in the foot?

Gu Jingcheng didn't answer him, so Zhou Lin could only follow him with a drooped face to prepare things for class.

In just one morning, Zhou Lin had no idea why Wan Fuzi, who usually regarded him as a transparent person, kept asking him questions? And if he couldn't answer, he would be punished by copying the article.

In just one short morning, he had already been punished with copying fifteen articles, and all of them were due tomorrow.

After class, when they saw Master Wan disappearing in front of them as he went to eat the rice cooked by his wife, Zhou Linsheng was so helpless that he couldn't even lift his hands.

He was lying on the table, feeling that his life was dark.

"Gu Jingcheng, you are really a cruel person."

"Next time, remember to pick out the words that others like to hear."

Gu Jingcheng held the book and walked past him to go out. When he was about to step out, he looked back at him. Of course, his focus was on the article in his hand: "If you don't have enough copies, just come and ask me for it."

After saying that, Gu Jingcheng crossed the threshold, and behind him came Zhou Lin's voice that made his teeth itch with hatred: "You are cruel."

Gu Jingcheng curled his lips in satisfaction.

Time passes day by day, and the end of summer is here in a blink of an eye. Although the air is as muggy as ever, there is still some rain accompanied by cool air occasionally, which makes the scorching heat not so unbearable.

Su Xiaomu's clubhouse was slowly being repaired day by day.

Maybe it was because he was too busy in the past few days, but Su Xiaomu was obviously much more relaxed during this time than before.

Although she still runs between the dessert shop and the farm, she can always find a gap to rest between them.

Especially Su Xiaomu's mentality changed very quickly. She has regarded the farm as a good place for leisure and vacation, so every time she goes there, she travels with an outing mentality.

As for Gu Jingcheng, he went out early and came back late as always.
