Gu Zhiyin got on the carriage and returned to the palace.

Mother Yang felt extremely depressed and looked at Gu Zhiyin who was walking in front of her with some distress.

The soft moonlight cast a hazy shadow on her body. Her straight back showed her toughness, but also an indescribable loneliness.

After several interactions with the stepmother of the Gu family, I found that she was really hypocritical. It was hard for the Princess to have lived under her control for so many years.

"Princess, you didn't eat much at Gu's house. Can I go and make you something to eat?" Mother Yang said.

Gu Zhiyin: "Well, thank you, Mother Yang."

I'm a little hungry indeed.

Mother Yang responded and turned to the small kitchen with Mother Hu.

Gu Zhiyin walked into the flower hall and was startled when she saw Fu Yunjing with his head resting on the table in the room.

"Prince, why are you here?"

When Fu Yunjing heard the voice, he sat up straight and looked at her: "I heard that someone from the Gu family came and asked you to go back. Is your mother making things difficult for you again?"

Under the orange candlelight, Fu Yunjing's handsome face looked even more enchanting.

His brows were slightly furrowed, and his deep eyes were filled with a hint of serious worry.

Gu Zhiyin's calm heart was gently moved.

"It's not a big deal." Gu Zhiyin said softly, sitting down at the table and reaching for the teapot in the middle.

Seeing this, Fu Yunjing hurriedly poured her a cup of tea.

Gu Zhiyin drank a cup, raised her eyes and asked Fu Yunjing: "The prince came to Qionghua Courtyard just for this matter?"

Fu Yunjing's lips curled up, and he suddenly sat up straight, his chin slightly raised: "Are you particularly touched? It's nothing. I've already said that we will be good brothers in the future... No, we are brothers and sisters. It's only natural for me to care about you. After all, you have always been protective and accommodating to me. I still understand how to return a favor, but if you really want to thank me, that's fine too."

Gu Zhiyin: “…”

This guy really deserves a beating.

She took a deep breath and resisted the urge to curse: "It's getting late. If you have nothing else to do, go back and rest."

"I can't sleep." Fu Yunjing suddenly became like a wilted eggplant, looking at Gu Zhiyin eagerly: "Come and talk to me."

Gu Zhiyin gritted his teeth secretly and asked with a fake smile: "What does the prince want to talk to me about?"

“I don’t want to study!”

Gu Zhiyin was not surprised at his bad attitude. Lin Jianyue was certainly a big blow to him, but it would be weird if Fu Yunjing really worked hard and studied hard all of a sudden.

"The prince doesn't want revenge anymore?"

"I think so." Fu Yunjing said faintly, "Is there any way to make Chu Chengnan and Lin Jianyue regret it without studying?"

Just like dealing with Guan Shaowei.

The bastard got his comeuppance without him having to do anything.

"Prince, you are wrong..."

Fu Yunjing looked at her in confusion: "What?"

"It's not that you can definitely avenge being cuckolded if you study, but if you don't study, you can't compete with the Third Prince at all. If you are willing to let Lin Jianyue and the Third Prince live together and bless them, then you can."

Green hat...

Fu Yunjing's handsome face couldn't help but darken. Should he emphasize it again?

Also, is he out of his mind to want to bless that couple?

Bah! He wanted to put them both in a pig cage and drown them in the river.

"Okay... all right!" Fu Yunjing looked helpless and compromised.

Gu Zhiyin rolled his eyes secretly.

He was also wronged.

At this time, Mother Yang came in with a tray. When she saw Fu Yunjing, she was stunned for a moment: "Hello, Prince."

Fu Yunjing nodded slightly at her: "What are you holding in your hand?"

It smells strange.

Mother Yang smiled and said, "The Princess didn't eat much at Gu's house, so I cooked chicken noodle soup for her."

As she spoke, she brought the bowl to Gu Zhiyin and carefully reminded her, "Princess, be careful, it's hot."

Fu Yunjing was sitting opposite Gu Zhiyin. The aroma of chicken soup immediately filled his nose. He swallowed and looked at Mother Yang: "Give me a bowl too."

Mother Yang was stunned, and said with an embarrassed expression: "I didn't know the prince was here, so I cooked a bowl."

Gu Zhiyin held the chopsticks and looked at the bowl of noodles in front of her, unable to eat anything.

She silently placed her chopsticks on the edge of the bowl and pushed it towards Fu Yunjing: "Prince, please eat."

Fu Yunjing's mouth twitched slightly: "..."

No matter how much of a jerk he is, he would never compete with a woman for food.

Fu Yunjing pushed the bowl back, stood up and said, "Eat slowly, I'm going back to the front yard."

Gu Zhiyin's beautiful eyes curved slightly, and she raised her head slightly to glance at Fu Yunjing: "Go slowly, Prince."

That excited look clearly showed the message "go, go!"

Then she held the bowl and started eating slowly.

Fu Yunjing couldn't help but laugh out of anger.

The next day, Gu Zhiyin made an appointment with Liu Zhenzhen to go to Yunjian Teahouse for tea in the afternoon.

At one quarter past three, the waiter led Liu Zhenzhen into the private room, followed by another person.

As soon as she saw Gu Zhiyin sitting by the window, Liu Zhenzhen's pretty face was filled with smiles: "Sister Gu."

Gu Zhiyin nodded with a smile: "Zhenzhen."

"I'm late. Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"I just arrived not long ago." Gu Zhiyin shook his head and then his eyes fell on another girl.

The girl was wearing a soft lilac silk dress, with large crabapple flowers embroidered on it. The flowers and leaves were lifelike, and the embroidery thread was shining. It was obvious that it was embroidered by a skilled embroiderer. The gold edges were clearly visible on the hem of the skirt. Her face was as clear as water and as delicate as porcelain, both beautiful and elegant.

The eldest daughter of Marquis Jing'an, Sun Ruqian.

Gu Zhiyin silently read out the other party's identity in his heart, and Liu Zhenzhen's introduction sounded at the same time:

"This is Sun Ruqian, the eldest daughter of the Jing'an Marquis Sun family." Liu Zhenzhen said, winking at Gu Zhiyin playfully: "My future third sister-in-law."

"Zhenzhen..." Sun Ruqian glared at Liu Zhenzhen and said helplessly, "Don't talk nonsense about things that are not certain."

Liu Zhenzhen thought she was embarrassed, so she pushed her and said jokingly, "Don't be embarrassed. Although my third brother is a little impulsive, he really likes you and will definitely treat you well in the future. Sister Gu is not an outsider and will not say anything nonsense."

As she said that, she turned her head and looked at Gu Zhiyin: "Sister Gu?"

Gu Zhiyin glanced at Sun Ruqian and nodded to Liu Zhenzhen with a smile: "Of course."
