The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 161 Liu Yanyan

“…No need.”

Ji Rang thought that the girl behind him wanted to tell him something, or wanted to change her seat position, which he wished for, but she just asked him if he wanted tea. Ji Rang felt helpless and refused in a cold voice.

Seeing that she seemed to want to say something, Ji Rang spoke first:

"I remembered the lovely peonies in the place I just passed by. Now I think about it and I like them very much. But it's boring to appreciate flowers alone. General Gu, why don't we go together?"

She actually ran away with a reason and took Gu Junqing with her.

Gu Junqing wanted nothing more than to get what he wanted, so he stood up and was about to leave.

"If we were to ask where the most beautiful peonies are in our Shen Mansion, it would naturally be the ones planted in the west courtyard. Why bother going far away to see second-rate peonies? Why not let me take you two adults there together?"

Shen Lian'er, who had been sitting behind Gu Junqing and had not spoken a word, stood up, looked at Gu Junqing, and said gently.

"... Flowers are beautiful, but we still have to like them. If we don't like them, no matter how beautiful they are, we won't even want to look at them. General Gu, do you think I'm right?"

Gu Junqing nodded: "I really like what you said, sir."

The two men's words had a double meaning and were clearly meant by everyone. When the girl behind Ji Rang heard his merciless words, her originally rosy face turned pale in an instant.

She looked at Ji Rang with tears in her eyes, then turned around and ran away.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Prime Minister Ji has such a cruel heart, he doesn't even understand the meaning of sympathy and love for women..."

At the end of Gu Jiyan's words, he saw Gu Junqing looking at him, and he realized that he seemed to have been ridiculed along with Gu Junqing. He was immediately stuck in his words, opened his mouth hesitantly, and simply turned his back and said no more.

Gu Junqing withdrew his gaze and did not look at Ji Rang who had a gloomy face beside him. Instead, he looked at Shen Lian'er and waited for her next words.

Shen Lian'er has been a pampered child since she was a child, and has been the object of flattery and praise from noble ladies and gentlemen. Ji Rang and Gu Junqing both expressed their disinterest and even dislike for her, and she did show a trace of unbearableness on her face, but she quickly retracted it.

She pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, and her pair of clear and beautiful eyes stared at Gu Junqing, with a stubborn and determined look, but her tone was still gentle:

"Since you two like the peonies in the east, I will not stop you. I will send you off respectfully."

Shen Lian'er knew that too much entanglement would be counterproductive and make the two people dislike her even more, so she was very tactful and did not entangle with them, but performed a standard noble lady's farewell ceremony elegantly and dignifiedly. Shen Lian'er did not look away until she could no longer see the backs of the two people leaving.

She fixed her eyes on Gu Jiyan, who was still drinking. He had the same dandy smile on his face. When he saw her looking at him, his expression became more frivolous. Shen Lian'er was unhappy inside, but she didn't show it on her face. She just nodded reservedly as a greeting, then turned around and left the place.

No one is here anymore, it's a waste of time to sit there.

Gu Jiyan raised his eyebrows, as if he had already expected Shen Lian'er's departure, so he didn't react much. After all, she looked down on him, and he also looked down on her!

The girl sitting behind me is still the cutest.

Gu Jiyan turned his back and wanted to say a few words to the little cutie, but when he turned around, there was no one there.

Gu Jiyan: "..."

Gu Junqing and the other two soon reached the garden full of peonies that Ji Rang had mentioned. However, before they got close, they saw a man and a woman standing there. They were far away, so they couldn't see what the two people in front of them looked like, nor did they know what they were talking about. Compared to the man's indifferent and upright posture, the woman bent her knees, and her gentle and slightly flattering posture seemed a little humble.

Gu Junqing and the other person looked at each other, stopped walking forward, and were thinking of turning around and walking somewhere else before the two people in front noticed them.

But suddenly I heard the woman crying:

"Shen Qingzhu, now that you have accepted the love of the eldest princess, why did you bother to provoke me in the first place? Could it be that you just treat me as a toy for your own squandering?"

Shen Qingzhu, the eldest princess, loves???

Gu Junqing felt that in the face of all the relevant interest information, face and money could be put aside for the time being.

Ji Rang and Gu Junqing had the same idea, so they found a more secluded place to hide where they could hear the conversation between the two people in front of them, intending to, ahem, eavesdrop.

Shen Qingzhu seemed to think that the girl in front of him was speaking too loudly. His originally lazy brows suddenly frowned, and he spoke in a deep and warning tone:

"Liu Yanyan, we were all willing to be together. What's more, you were the one who approached me first and didn't ask for a name. Now that we're done, I'll help you find a good family to marry you off and ensure you live a life of wealth and glory. But you're still unhappy and come back to me again. Aren't you going too far?"

Gu Junqing and Ji Rang didn't know what to say for a moment after listening to Shen Qingzhu's words. They always felt that his words were not quite right.

Speaking of which, Liu Yanyan, who was accused of being too much by Shen Qingzhu, was furious and had a look of disbelief in her eyes. She pointed at herself, opened her eyes wide, and repeated in disbelief:

"I went too far? It was you who said we would be together forever..." "Alright, I don't want to argue with you about the past. Just think of me as playing with you. It's almost time to go back to the banquet. Let's part ways in peace and don't cause any trouble for me. Otherwise, I will make you, Liu Yanyan, live a life worse than death."

Shen Qingzhu really didn't want to be too involved with Liu Yanyan. After all, at the beginning he just wanted to calmly explain to her how to end this shady relationship.

Unexpectedly, a series of arguments and quarrels would start here. Liu Yanyan refused to agree no matter what. Shen Qingzhu didn't understand why Liu Yanyan was like this. She didn't really think that he had her and only her, what a ridiculous and ignorant woman.

After Shen Qingzhu threw the words to Liu Yanyan, he didn't care about her expression at the moment. He just sneered, turned around and left the yard without looking back.

Liu Yanyan was left alone with her head down, tears falling one by one. She didn't cry or make any other unnecessary movements. She was just quiet, like a sculpture without a soul, with only loneliness and emptiness all over her body. She slowly squatted down and tilted her head to pick up the handkerchief and sachet that Shen Qingzhu had just dropped because he was annoyed with her. These were made by Liu Yanyan for Shen Qingzhu. Every stitch and every thread was carefully selected and carefully worked out by Liu Yanyan. They were all embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water and flying side by side.

The silk handkerchief and sachet fell to the ground, covered with fine dust.

Liu Yanyan stretched out her hand and patted it gently, and the ashes fell off, along with her sincere and warm heart.
