Marrying for someone else and being a widow? Stepmothers open classes to raise children

Shen Dingli became impatient and dragged her outside: "Shut up and stop embarrassing yourself here!"

Shen Dingli dragged Gu Zhiping through the corridors and gardens of the Gu Mansion. The servants around him looked at him sideways, but no one dared to stop him. Gu Zhiping's face was pale and her lips trembled slightly, but she did not give up struggling.

"Shen Dingli, you hurt me!" Gu Zhiping shouted in a low voice, with tears in her eyes.

Shen Dingli stopped and let go, his eyes filled with even more impatience: "Gu Zhiping, don't you understand? In this mansion, your every move represents the reputation of the Gu Mansion. Your willfulness will only bring shame to the Gu Mansion!"

Gu Zhiping bit her lip, trying to calm herself down: "I just... I just want you to understand me."

Shen Dingli sneered: "Understand? What do you have that is worthy of my understanding?"

Gu Zhiping raised her head, her eyes firm: "I love you, Shen Dingli."

The air around them seemed to freeze. Shen Dingli's expression froze for a moment, then he returned to his indifference: "Love? What do you know about love? In your world, love is endless entanglement and bondage."

Gu Zhiping's heart seemed to be hit hard, but she still insisted: "I know that I may have caused you trouble, but I am willing to change and willing to give for you."

Shen Dingli turned to leave, and Gu Zhiping eagerly followed him: "Please, Shen Dingli, give me a chance."

Shen Dingli stopped and looked back at her. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it: "Gu Zhiping, who do you think you are? Do you think your love can change everything?"

Gu Zhiping couldn't hold back her tears. She lowered her head and wiped away her tears gently: "I know I may not be qualified, but I am willing to do anything as long as I can make you accept me."

Shen Dingli looked at her like this and couldn't help but waver in his heart, but he still hardened his heart: "Gu Zhiping, it's impossible for us to be together. You'd better face the reality and stop affecting my mood."

Gu Zhiping's body trembled slightly, but she still insisted: "I will prove it to you."

Shen Dingli shook his head helplessly and turned away. Gu Zhiping looked at his back, her eyes full of despair.

Back in the study room of Gu's house, Shen Dingli still couldn't calm down. He sat at the desk, picked up a book, but found that he couldn't concentrate.

At this time, the door of the study was gently pushed open, and Gu Zhirong, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, walked in. She looked at Shen Dingli with concern in her eyes: "Dingli, are you okay?"

Shen Dingli raised his head and forced a smile, "It's okay, I'm just a little tired."

Gu Zhirong walked up to him and patted his shoulder gently: "I know you feel uncomfortable, but you have to believe that Zhiping is doing this for your own good."

Shen Dingli sighed: "I know, but I really don't know how to face her."

Gu Zhirong smiled and said, "Give her some time, and give yourself some time. Feelings are something that need to be cultivated slowly."

Shen Dingli nodded, feeling a little shaken. Gu Zhirong saw what he was thinking and said, "Besides, Zhiping is a good girl. She deserves your careful understanding."

Shen Dingli was silent for a while, then slowly said: "I know, I will try to understand her."

Gu Zhirong smiled with relief, turned around and left the study.

At night, Shen Dingli was walking alone in the garden of Gu's mansion, with the moonlight shining on him, looking a little lonely. Suddenly, he heard a soft cry.

He walked towards the sound and found Gu Zhiping standing alone under a tree, tears streaming down her cheeks. Shen Dingli's heart moved and he walked over gently.

"Zhiping, what's wrong with you?" he asked softly.

Gu Zhiping raised her head and saw that it was Shen Dingli, and her tears flowed even harder. She bit her lip and tried to calm herself down: "Nothing, I just miss home."

Shen Dingli looked at her, with mixed emotions in his heart. He sighed softly: "Zhiping, actually I..."

Gu Zhiping suddenly interrupted him: "I know, you don't have to say it. I just want you to know that no matter how you treat me, I will stick to my love."

Shen Dingli was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Zhiping, I am really sorry for the hurt I caused you."

Gu Zhiping smiled, tears falling from the corners of her lips: "It doesn't matter, as long as I can be with you, I am willing to endure everything."

Shen Dingli looked at her, and the ice wall in his heart seemed to begin to melt. He gently took Gu Zhiping's hand and said firmly: "Zhiping, give me some time, I will let you see my love for you."

A hint of surprise flashed across Gu Zhiping's eyes. She held Shen Dingli's hand tightly, tears welling up in her eyes again: "I will wait, no matter how long it takes, I am willing to wait."

……

Gu Zhiyi exclaimed: "Your Majesty, an assassin has sneaked into the hall."

Gu Zhiyi's voice echoed in the empty hall, and the emperor's face suddenly became solemn. He quickly stood up from the dragon throne and looked around sharply. The palace maids and eunuchs in the hall were all panicked, some picked up the whisks in their hands, and some hugged their heads tightly, looking around in fear.

The emperor said in a deep voice: "Miss Gu, did you see any trace of the assassin who sneaked in?"

Gu Zhiyi calmed down and replied, "Your Majesty, I did see a suspicious person when I entered the hall. He was dressed in black and was very agile. I am worried that he might harm Your Majesty."

The emperor nodded slightly, with a hint of approval in his eyes: "Okay, in that case, you will stay by my side and help me catch the assassin."

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall became increasingly tense. The guards around the emperor drew their swords and vigilantly searched for the assassin. Gu Zhiyi followed closely behind the emperor, ready to respond to any emergency.

Suddenly, a guard nervously pointed to a corner of the hall: "Your Majesty, the assassin is there!"

The emperor immediately ordered: "Capture him quickly!" The guards rushed to that corner and a fierce battle broke out.

Gu Zhiyi clenched her teeth, worry flashing in her eyes. She looked at the emperor's heroic figure and prayed in her heart: Your Majesty, you must be safe.

The battle became more intense, and the assassin's martial arts were so strong that the guards had difficulty subduing him. At this moment, Gu Zhiyi suddenly discovered that the assassin was holding a dagger in his hand, and the tip of the sword seemed to be coated with poison.

She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Your Majesty, be careful! The assassin's sword is poisoned!"

The emperor's eyes shone when he heard this, and he quickly dodged the assassin's attack. He turned to Gu Zhiyi and said, "Miss Gu, go and notify the Imperial Hospital and ask them to prepare the antidote."

Gu Zhiyi took the order and immediately ran out of the hall to look for the people from the Imperial Hospital. She was anxious and walked quickly, fearing that something bad might happen to the emperor.

After a while, the eunuchs from the Imperial Hospital came to the hall with the antidote. The emperor was already poisoned and pale, but he still stood firm on the battlefield. After he took the antidote and drank it, his spirit gradually recovered.
