After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy

Gu Huaiyi nodded and rode his horse around Chen Wanwan, his speed obviously much faster than before.

Ye Qingyu couldn't help but chuckle with her hands covering her lips. It seemed like her third cousin was running away in panic. Chen Wanwan was also very powerful.

She turned to look at Lu Zhiyao, who was calmly sipping tea, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Most women would be unhappy if the man they were dating was entangled with another woman, but Lu Zhiyao did not look unhappy at all.

Ye Qingyu didn't dare to ask too much, so she had to talk about other things with Ye Qingya, and the three of them started chatting.

Arriving at the former Marquis of Qingyuan's Mansion, now the Princess Chun'an's Mansion, Ye Qingyu looked at the gate that had been replaced with the plaque of Princess Chun'an's Mansion, and a strange emotion flashed in her eyes.

The doorman saw Ye Qingyu and hurried forward to greet her. "Greetings, Princess."

"Well, how is the renovation of the mansion going?"

The doorman quickly replied, "My Lady, it's almost done. There are still some delicate details, and the craftsmen are polishing them carefully."

At this time, Shao An received the news that Ye Qingyu had arrived, and he hurried out to greet her, "Greetings to the Princess, the Third Young Master, and Miss Ye."

"Princess, please come into the mansion."

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work these days."

Shao An said respectfully, "As for the princess, this is all my responsibility."

"Your Highness, the Princess's Mansion has been completely renovated. There's still some delicate gilding work to be done on the west side of the mansion, but everything else is finished. If Your Highness wishes to move in, please choose an auspicious day."

The West Mansion that Shao An mentioned was the Earl's Mansion that had been vacant for many years. Compared with the inhabited Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, the Earl's Mansion was naturally more labor-intensive and time-consuming. I didn't expect Shao An to be so efficient and complete the renovation of the mansion so quickly.

Ye Qingyu glanced at Gu Huaizhi and Lu Zhiyao, then took Ye Qingya's hand and said, "Qingya, accompany me to the West Mansion. Shao An, lead the way."

Shen Junchen glanced at Gu Huaizhi and hurried to catch up, "I'll go with you!"

The three of them walked away quickly, leaving Gu Huaizhi and Lu Zhiyao alone, and silence instantly fell between the two of them.

The servants in the mansion were busy with their own things and no one paid any attention to the two of them. They felt like they were left alone, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Gu Huaizhi had little contact with girls. Apart from Ye Qingyu, he seldom interacted with women and didn't know how to get along with them. The third master Gu, who usually handled everything with ease, felt a little helpless for the first time.

"Well, Miss Lu, why don't we just go for a stroll."

Seeing that he looked a little embarrassed, Lu Zhiyao curled up the corner of her mouth into a faint smile and nodded obediently, "Okay, Master Gu, lead the way."

"Okay, Miss Lu, please come this way."

Lu Zhiyao raised her eyes and glanced at his handsome face, then pinched the handkerchief in her hand. "Master Gu, do you really not remember me?"

Gu Huaizhi paused and looked at Lu Zhiyao in confusion, "I wonder if I have ever offended Miss Lu?"

He really didn't remember having seen Lu Zhiyao, such a beautiful and elegant woman. If he had seen her, he believed he would not forget her.

Lu Zhiyao sighed softly, her drooping eyelashes hiding the disappointment in her eyes. "Indeed, I was wearing a veil that day, so it's only natural that you don't remember."

"A year ago, at this time of year, in Xinghua Lane in the east of the city, do you still remember saving the master and servant?"

Whether it was the fate between the two of them or the life-saving grace, she had to tell him about it.

Gu Huaizhi frowned and thought, then vaguely remembered some scenes. He looked at the beautiful woman in front of him in surprise. Was it her?

Lu Zhiyao knew he remembered and bowed gracefully, "You left so quickly that day that I didn't even have time to ask your name. Thank you so much for saving my life!"

Seeing Lu Zhiyao bow so solemnly, Gu Huaizhi was unusually at a loss. He wanted to help her up, but since it was not appropriate for men and women to touch each other, he quickly withdrew his hand, "Miss Lu, there is no need to be so polite. It's just a small favor. Any man would not stand idly by when encountering such a situation."

Lu Zhiyao smiled brilliantly, looking at Gu Huaizhi with shyness, but she stared straight at him without dodging, "They say that a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's body..." Lu Zhiyao looked straight into Gu Huaizhi's eyes and continued, "I wonder if Master Gu will give Zhiyao this opportunity."

Gu Huaizhi's eyes widened in shock. His heart skipped a beat at Lu Zhiyao's gentle yet resolute gaze...

"I, I, Miss Lu, you should marry the man you love, instead of promising yourself to him. This is not right." He rarely dared to look Lu Zhiyao in the eyes, and his words stuttered.

"Mr. Gu is so outstanding, I wonder how many ladies dream of him, and how many women are attracted to him."

When she didn't know who he was, she secretly loved the benefactor who saved her life. When she saw the benefactor riding on a tall horse in a dazzling top scholar's uniform, she realized that he was not only chivalrous, but also so outstanding. Such a man must be the sweetheart of many women.

Just like Chen Wanwan today, who was such an arrogant and domineering person, was so shy in front of Master Gu. She felt so sad that he was so popular.

However, she was thankful that God gave her more opportunities than others. When her mother mentioned that Madam Gu wanted the two families to marry, she was so excited. With such an opportunity in front of her, no matter how shy she was, she had to grab it!

"I know that for you, Master, I am the first person you have met today. I don't know what impression you have of me, but I am also a shy girl. No, I am not such a wild and bold person. But, for me, Master, you are not only an excellent husband candidate, but also Zhiyao's savior. I am very happy to see you again."

As she said this, Lu Zhiyao's pretty face turned red like a peony. She blinked her watery eyes and pinched the handkerchief nervously, but she boldly whispered her feelings.

It was the first time that Gu Huaizhi felt that a woman could be so beautiful. Obviously, his cousin was also a rare beauty. He first felt that the woman in front of him was glowing with beauty.

"I, I'm not that good. I have a lot of bad habits too." Gu Huaizhi said softly.

Lu Zhiyao chuckled, and Gu Huaizhi felt his heart tremble.

"Sir, could you please talk to Zhiyao about this?"

Gu Huaizhi raised his eyes to look at her. Her gentle and bright eyes seemed to burn him. He quickly looked away and spoke in a low voice.

When Ye Qingyu returned from the West Mansion, she saw the two of them sitting under the banyan tree, chatting about something. The atmosphere between them was so harmonious that no one else could interfere.

Ye Qingya excitedly pulled Ye Qingyu's clothes, "Big sister, look, look, are they done?"

Ye Qingyu smiled faintly, "You'll have to ask me about that."
