"It's just that in your eyes, I did a bad thing with good intentions, and all the mistakes are now my fault. Since you think I did something wrong, I will leave and leave you and your wife alone together, and I will never block your eyes anymore.

"

Zhou Lin was so angry that he couldn't listen to anything Gu Jingcheng said.

He slammed the door and left, leaving not only a hazy figure for Gu Jingcheng, but also a shock to Su Xiaomu who was waiting for them to have dinner on the first floor.

Are the two of them fighting up there? It seems that Zhou Lin should beat Gu Jingcheng.

Su Xiaomu scratched his head in confusion, and then waited for the waiter to serve the food.

Gu Jingcheng took a long bath, and when he came down to the first floor, he was still covered in moisture.

Even the tips of his hair were still wet with water. In this freezing cold weather, Su Xiaomu was a little worried that he didn't get sick in prison, but would be infected with the cold when he came back.

"Why don't you wipe your hair clean? Isn't there a clean cloth on it?"

Su Xiaomu waited for Gu Jingcheng to sit down and immediately poured him a cup of hot tea, then asked Zhou Lin who had just left.

"He left suddenly just now. Before I had time to ask why, the figure disappeared. So what happened to you two up there just now? If it was because of me, there is no need to quarrel. Zhou Lin spent a lot of money to get you out this time.

Kung Fu counts as your benefactor."

Su Xiaomu brought vegetables to Gu Jingcheng, raised her eyes and nodded at him: "He and I are friends, and I really don't want to be in a dilemma between the two of you, let alone see you lose your temper because of me. If you don't want me to come,

Here, if you think I'm in your way, I can go back to Fucheng early tomorrow morning."

Su Xiaomu was still very willing to go back.

Although she had already taken care of everything when she arrived, the capital was too big and too prosperous. When she came here without being fully prepared, she would always feel a sense of unreality and emptiness.

In such a powerful dynasty, she is just a commoner. Too many people can crush her to death like an ant. She cherishes her life and will not go wrong if she stays in the capital for a long time.

"I didn't." Gu Jingcheng shook his head hastily, fearing that Su Xiaomu would misunderstand him.

"I don't want you to stay here. I wish you could stay by my side every day. But now that I don't have the ability to protect myself, how can I let you suffer with me."

Gu Jingcheng lost his appetite. He put down his chopsticks and lowered his eyes. His long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes. He pursed his thin lips slightly, revealing a bitter meaning: "You can live a better life in Fucheng, even without me.

Live better."

"Let's not talk about our affairs for now. After all, Zhou Lin is thinking about you, but he won't really blame you for anything. At most, he will be back in a few days, so you can relax."

Su Xiaomu thought that he had an appetite for food.

Although she feels a little complicated now.

She knew that Gu Jingcheng was worried about her and didn't want to implicate her because of the princess' affairs.

Last time Gu Jingcheng intentionally broke his leg, he probably had the same idea.

There were many things that were unclear at that time, but now it seems that all the clouds have been cleared away, and Su Xiaomu is no longer confused.

But no matter how worried Gu Jingcheng was about her, Su Xiaomu felt that the relationship between the two of them was shallow and there was no need to talk about it.

They are just a fake couple, and some things are not suitable for her to say due to her status.

"Yeah." Gu Jingcheng nodded, his expression made Su Xiaomu unable to tell whether he was happy or angry for the time being, "I will apologize to him when he comes back. You don't have to worry too much between us."

"I believe you can figure it out yourself, but there is one thing I forgot to tell you. A few days ago, when you had an accident, the county magistrate wrote a letter to his teacher, who is the former prince's young master."

"I also had the honor to meet him because of you. He likes scholars. I heard that you have made many contributions to the people in Fucheng, and I also admire you very much. Now that you are out, why don't we go to the same place tomorrow?

Tutor, thank you?"

Su Xiaomu thought that she and Gu Jingcheng could not be husband and wife, but they could still be friends.

Gu Jingcheng couldn't explain that he would be her strong thigh in the future. People always have to find ways to grab all the help they can get around them. What's more, when she does business, no matter how much she respects and abides by the law, she still needs some backing.

no?

Gu Jingcheng immediately understood what Su Xiaomu meant. He himself also knew the stakes. As a student who had not yet taken the imperial examination, if he could get involved with the former Taifu and show his face in front of him, it would always be for his future.

To pave the way for becoming an official.

"Thank you for considering me. After what happened last time, I thought the two of us couldn't even be friends."

Gu Jingcheng's hand on the table gradually clenched into a fist, and he sighed with great self-sarcasm: "I judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

"Even if we don't become husband and wife and I have to separate from you in the future, we will still be friends after knowing each other for a year. Don't think too much about it. Didn't we agree before that you would be my supporter in the capital?"

Su Xiaomu was keenly aware that his mood was getting worse and worse today, and he was a little afraid that Gu Jingcheng's low mood would affect the imperial examination.

This has been going on for many years, and she is finally getting through it this year. If her knowledge is damaged because of this little annoying emotion, then it is her fault.

"Um."

Perhaps he was encouraged by Su Xiaomu, or maybe he really listened to what she said, Gu Jingcheng's brows gradually widened: "It's getting late, I'll go up and rest first."

"Okay, remember to cover yourself with a quilt and be careful not to catch a cold."

Su Xiaomu watched Gu Jingcheng, who was looking a little thin behind him, leave. Looking at the table full of delicacies, she lost her appetite for the first time.

"I still have a lot to say to you, that's all. It's better to rest early. Young people's health is more important."

She shook her head and sighed, and poured herself some yellow soup.

These days, Su Xiaomu's nerves were so tense that he hardly relaxed and rested for a day.

Gu Jingcheng would not be criticized if he went to see Shangguan Rui.

First of all, Shangguan Rui is already the former prince and young master, and now he has no official position in the court. Although the Shangguan family is a prominent figure in the capital and can be ranked among the best among the aristocratic families, the current head of the family, Shangguan Rui, is inferior to other aristocratic families.

He was weak, and no one would be afraid of him if he had a relationship with him. Gu Jingcheng was just a layabout.

As for Chief Assistant Lin Yu, Su Xiaomu had already made up his mind to go and help him.

Now that Su Xiaomu is in no hurry to leave the capital, and the pastries she makes can recuperate the body of the first assistant's wife, why not take this opportunity to build a good relationship with the first assistant's wife, and then ask Lin Yu to remember her?

"This is the legendary lady diplomacy, right? Gu Jingcheng, you must study hard, concentrate on your studies, and come back with a top score for me. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of all the hard work I have spent on you?"
