graceful

He could even feel the look she had just given him.

He just sat there motionless, his body stiff.

In fact, his heartbeat was like the beating of a drum, and only he knew it.

He pretended to have just seen Tang Yu.

Looking at him with an indifferent expression, he was dressed in a white dress today, looking ethereal and graceful, like a goddess from the sky, floating in the air.

With her hair tied into a bun, she looks as pure and elegant as an angel, and her face is as beautiful as a city.

After just one glance, Gu Wen immediately looked away, his heart beating wildly.

He inexplicably recalled the words that kept him awake last night.

She loved him so much that she was willing to die for him.

"Sit down." Gu Wen said lightly.

Tang Yu's expression remained unchanged, pretending not to notice his red ears.

She could already tell that Gu Wen was happy with her, but she didn't realize it.

Then there is no need to rush, all you need is an opportunity.

"General, do you have something to tell me?"

Gu Wen thought about what he was going to say today and started talking about business, and the awkwardness just now dissipated a little.

"I heard that Lin Xiaoxiao invited you to go boating on the lake today? Is that true?"

Tang Yu replied, "That's true, General."

"You agree?"

"With my status, how could I refuse them inviting me to go boating on the lake? General, don't worry, I won't cause any trouble for you when you are out. You will be safe and sound, and you won't feel embarrassed."

Tang Yu retreated to advance and pretended to be aggrieved.

Gu Wen couldn't explain why his heart ached when he saw her being wronged, and he hurried to explain.

"That's not what I meant, and I don't think you'll embarrass me if you go out! It's just that Zhou and Lin Xiaoxiao are not good people. They seem kind on the surface, but they are vicious at heart. I'm just afraid that you will fall into their trap."

"And I deliberately didn't go to the military camp to wait for you here today, just to give you two female secret guards."

"I don't mean to look down on you. I never look down on you."

"So...don't be sad."

After saying this, the consultant felt inexplicably ashamed because he had never said a word of surrender before.

Even when he was young and naughty, the old general broke his stick and beat him so hard that he couldn't get out of bed for a month, but he never gave in.

This was the first time he spoke softly, and to a woman at that, and he felt inexplicably shy but not unhappy.

Tang Yu lowered her eyes and raised her handkerchief to cover the corners of her mouth.

She raised her eyes again, looking at Gu Wen with her watery eyes, her eyes full of gratitude.

Her voice was soft and sweet. "So that's how it is. I was wrong to judge you by my own standards."

"General, you are the best person I have ever met."

Gu Wen raised his hand, picked up the teacup, and drank the water in a concealed manner.

He paid no attention to the scalding hot tea.

It was too late for Tang Yu to stop it.

Gu Wen almost dropped the scalding teacup and lowered his head to spit out the scalding tea.

Then he felt even more awkward and uneasy, looking around but not daring to look at her.

Tang Yu's chuckle sounded like a silver bell.

"Are you embarrassed to be with me, General? Why are you so flustered?"

Gu Wen seemed to be stammering while saying something difficult, his face flushed.

"No...no."

At this moment, two female secret guards arrived.

Gu Wen saw Tang Yu's gaze shift and breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't know why he got so nervous whenever he talked to her and always blushed.

"The one on the left is Jinse, and the one on the right is Jinxiu. These two female secret guards will dress you up and prepare dinner. You should keep them with you as maids on weekdays to prevent others from bullying you when you go out. Even in the general's mansion, you can be bullied.
