2062

As long as she did not fall out of favor in front of Gu Yan, she would always run amok in the circle of the capital city.

Xia Ling originally wanted to pick out more jewelry in the ready-made clothing store and dress herself up beautifully when she went back.

She did not expect to meet these ladies who were chatty.

Her mood was completely ruined by them, so Xia Ling brought Ying Chun directly back to the mansion.

In the evening, Gu Yan came to Xia Ling's place again.

She was the only woman in the mansion. Apart from sleeping in the main courtyard, Gu Yan spent the rest of his time sleeping at her place.

Xia Ling helped him bathe and change his clothes. She did not seem to talk much.

Gu Yan asked her a few times.

He asked for water from the outside again.

When the two of them returned to the bed, Gu Yan pinched her chin. Following the steam from the bathtub, Gu Yan carefully looked at Xia Ling's face.

Xia Ling lowered her eyes and allowed him to look at her.

Her eyes were curved. In front of him, no matter how he looked at it, women were obedient and beautiful.

However, those perverse and unbridled acts, such as pouring tea on the assistant minister's wife in public, were also done by her.

Just like when Hu Ping and Bai Cui had provoked her, she had played along in secret, knocking Hu Ping unconscious and throwing him into the pond beside the rockery... ...

Gu Yan would not say that she liked Xia ling, but she liked Xia ling's personality, which was like the two faces behind him in front of him.

He wanted to see to what extent she would be spoiled by him before she dared to show her claws and teeth in front of him?

If she did not like it, would she knock off her claws and teeth and make her obediently hide by his side?

"Why didn't you ask about what happened today? Why didn't you tell me? " Gu Yan softened her tone.

He could never figure out her temper.

When she saw Xia Li, she did not show any signs of emotion. Instead, she obediently stayed by his side and guarded him.

It could not be ruled out that there was an element of acting in this. However, seeing Xia Li's dejected look, she always made him feel happy.

"which matter is master talking about? " Blinking her eyes, Xia Ling leaned against Gu Yan's side and rested her head on his shoulder.

Gu Yan did not like others to be close to him. However, when she was with Xia Ling, she would always approach him. He did not know how he got used to her approach.

Her scent, her every frown and smile. In the darkness, Gu Yan could imagine how she was lazily leaning against him without even looking at her.

Gu Yan: "What else are you hiding from me? "

Xia Ling thought for a moment She said, "I just caused a scene at Jin Ji's ready-to-wear shop today. Other than that... ... Nothing else "yesterday, the wife of Secretary Li from the Ministry of revenue came to ask me about Secretary Li's promotion. She wanted me to blow the pillow wind, so I took her money and promised her to mention it to master "Well, you asked me, so I mentioned it now. It's not unconscionable. "

"Oh, your business is doing well. " Gu Yan's eyes were indifferent as she glanced at the woman beside her.

The weather was gradually getting colder. Every time they leaned together, it was as if she wanted to warm herself up from him.

He did not feel bored. Instead, it was as if he had a pet. Sometimes, when she fell asleep, he would look at her a few more times.

Gu Yan felt that she was not a person who would be seduced by beauty. However, when she met Xia Ling, it was as if she had cast a spell on him.

For some reason, he was becoming more and more indulgent towards her.

Li Wenshu... ...

Gu Yan thought for a moment, and then remembered an honest face.

Ever since the civil and military officials of the court knew that Xia Ling's place was a gap, from seventh grade to second grade, they all came to Xia Ling for connections.

Some things Gu Yan did, and some things Gu Yan directly shelved.

He indirectly gave Xia Ling a way to make money, but he did not expect Xia Ling to climb up the ranks. Now in the capital, there was probably no other woman who could compete with her in the limelight.
