After the two of them left, Ah You came in from outside and said, "Sir, didn't the letter say that I would be the one to negotiate? Why did you have to come in person?"

Gu Huai shook his teacup and said calmly, "He Xiaotian can be ignored, but Li Yang is more thoughtful. If I don't come in person, he might be suspicious."

Ah You nodded, looked at Ritian, and said in surprise: "Young Master, it's time to go back and take the medicine."

Gu Huai stood up, but his body suddenly shook uncontrollably, scaring Ayou so much that he hurriedly supported him.

Ah You said, "Sir, if Miss Meng knew that you did this, would she be moved?"

Gu Huai stared blankly at the floor, and said in a low voice: "Moved? She will hate me later."

Ah You was puzzled: "Ah? But aren't you helping her? Why should she hate you?"

Gu Huai shook his head and said, "Nothing. Go back quickly."

"Yes."

When he reached the door, Gu Huai suddenly slowed down his pace and said slowly: "Ayou, is the poison I developed ready?"

Ah You nodded: "Put it away, no one will know."

Gu Huai walked out of the door, leaving behind a light sentence: "That's good."

It was soon night. Meng Yin came back from outside and saw the light in Gu Ling's yard. She paused and turned back to the side yard.

Qiao Yi came in from outside and said, "Miss Meng, it worked!"

Meng Yin smiled and said, "That's great!"

She thought about it for a moment and felt that she had to talk to Gu Ling about this matter, otherwise he might go crazy again if he saw her talking to those two people.

"Qiao Yi, you go down and rest first. I want to go to bed too." Meng Yin stood up and adjusted her bangs in front of the mirror.

Qiao Yi cupped his hands: "Yes."

It's late today, I might as well go tomorrow, Meng Yin thought, picked up her pajamas and went to take a bath.

She hummed a little tune, played with the flower petals in the bathtub from time to time, and stared at the water in a daze from time to time.

At the door, Gu Ling leaned against it with his head lowered.

After taking a comfortable shower, Meng Yin suddenly saw a figure at the door when she was getting dressed. She immediately became alert, and subconsciously thought it was Gu Ling, so she ignored him, put on her clothes calmly, and opened the door.

But there was no one at the door. Only gusts of autumn wind made her shiver. She folded her arms and ran quickly back to her bedroom.

Gu Ling had just jumped onto the roof. Looking at Meng Yin's back, he bit his lip, stood in the middle of the roof, and silently blew the cold wind.

Inside the house, Meng Yin lay on the bed, blew out the light, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

About a quarter of an hour later, Gu Ling quietly opened the window, with almost no movement.

With the help of moonlight, Gu Ling saw Meng Yin lying on her side facing him.

She closed her eyes and breathed evenly, finally finding the quietness that suited her appearance.

But Gu Ling didn't care, whether she was well-behaved or cunning, as long as she didn't ignore him. In just one day, he couldn't stand it anymore.

Gu Ling leaned over, supporting himself on the bed with his arms, and smelled the floral scent on her body after her bath. He maintained this posture, gazing at her greedily.

After a while, he slowly moved down, wanting to get more. Suddenly, Meng Yin opened her eyes, and her clear eyes reflected him. She raised her hands like a pistol and pressed them against his chest.

"Don't move, you are under arrest!" Meng Yin said seriously, and then smiled triumphantly.

Seeing the smile on her face, Gu Ling was stunned at first, then he immediately grabbed her wrists, knelt on the bed with his right knee, and leaned over to rub her neck.

"Ayin..." he said in a daze.

Meng Yin twisted her body and deliberately asked, "You're running into a girl's room late at night?"

Gu Ling raised his head, stared at her for a few seconds, and suddenly pulled up the quilt. Meng Yin felt a chill invading the originally warm bed, and then she was embraced by the chill, making her unable to move.

"What are you doing?" Meng Yin asked.

Gu Ling buried his head in her chest and said sullenly, "I'm cold."

Meng Yin touched his back and couldn't help but hug him tighter, blaming him: "Where were you just now? It's so cold, aren't you afraid of getting sick?"

Gu Ling moved his body, as if to act like a spoiled child. His tone was childish, stubborn, and tough: "Get well soon. Only when you are sick will you care about me."

Meng Yin said unhappily: "If you get sick now, won't you infect me?"

After hearing this, there was silence for a second. Gu Ling immediately got up and threw back the quilt, causing Meng Yin to quickly grab him.

"Why are you going?"

"I'm afraid I might get infected by Ayin."

"I'm not that delicate!" Meng Yin gritted her teeth and said, Gu Ling lowered his head, his loose hair drooping weakly on his shoulders, or hanging in front of him, covering his ears. From Meng Yin's perspective, he seemed to be aggrieved.

Meng Yin couldn't help but feel weak in her heart. She stretched out her hand and said, "Come in."

Gu Ling immediately held her, came in, hugged her and covered her with the quilt.

Meng Yin sniffed him and found that he still had that faint herbal scent: "Have you washed it?"

Gu Ling nodded: "I have washed it."

Meng Yin leaned against his chest and said, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Gu Ling was a little dissatisfied: "It's okay... can't I just look for A Yin?"

Meng Yin said: "Humph, you better know what to say."

"Don't be angry with me, okay?" Gu Ling slowed down his tone, "I don't think I can change, but I won't force you. Yin, do whatever you want, I'll cover for you."

Meng Yin rolled her eyes at him and said, "How can I cause you trouble if I do things so properly?"

Gu Ling hugged her tightly and kissed her lightly on the ear: "Well, no."

Meng Yin sighed. She knew that it was indeed difficult to make Gu Ling change. His thoughts and behaviors were caused by his growing environment.

He grew up alone and finally met the person he loved. However, no one taught him how to love, so he could only figure it out on his own.

Fortunately, Gu Ling was not like those yandere perverts she had seen before, who killed and imprisoned people. All his actions were based on his love for her.

Meng Yin said: "Then we have a deal, you can't get angry easily in the future."

Gu Ling said: "Ayin, I'm not being casual."

Meng Yin glared at him and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Didn't I talk about the plan to join forces with Gu Huai yesterday?"

Gu Ling paused, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Meng Yin saw that he was unhappy, raised her head and kissed him on the lips, then continued to tell him the plan.

After talking for a long time, Gu Ling didn't respond. She reached out and hit him: "I'm talking to you and you're in a daze?"

Gu Ling shook his head: "No." He lowered his head and kissed her warm lips.

Meng Yin had no choice but to deal with his actions. It turned out that after she talked for a long time, this guy still wanted to kiss her.

The next day, under Meng Yin's instructions, Gu Ling went to the study reluctantly.

Meng Yin was wandering alone in the garden. As Gu Ling's fiancée, people who saw her only greeted her and didn't dare to say anything more.

Meng Yin sat on the swing under the osmanthus tree, playing with the ribbons that tied her hair out of boredom.

Realizing that there were two people approaching her from behind, Meng Yin turned her head and gave them a pure smile.

Li Yang stepped forward and bowed, "Miss Meng, are you here alone?"

Meng Yin said softly, "The weather is nice, I'll come sit here."

The two looked at each other, and Li Yang smiled and said, "The scenery in the garden is indeed beautiful. I wonder if Miss Meng has heard of this poem."

Meng Yin tilted her head, looking very interested: "Oh? Tell me about it?"

Li Yang leaned forward slightly and said in a deep voice: "Look up at the bright moon."

Meng Yin smiled gently: "I bow my head and think about my hometown."

It's broad daylight now, where is the bright moon?

Li Yang looked at her without blinking, but with a little more attentiveness.

Meng Yin stood up and said, "The First Hall Master is very talented. Let's... go somewhere else to discuss in detail."

The two suppressed their excitement. They couldn't help but be curious about Meng Yin's life experience. Such a fragile-looking girl actually had the ability to toy with Gu Ling. Her strength must be unfathomable.

Meng Yin didn't need a pass in the palace. She took the two of them outside and randomly found a restaurant.
