Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me

Mu Qingli subconsciously raised her eyes and met the man's eyes that were as dark as the sea. The surging dark waves in them made her fingers curl up slightly involuntarily. She hesitated and asked softly.

"what happened?"

Gu Luoheng's expression was slightly restrained. The words he wanted to say kept rising in his throat several times but he couldn't utter them. Finally, he sighed barely and looked away.

"...It's okay. Tomorrow is the Autumn Examination. I will definitely give it my all. Will you come and see me off then?"

Even the common people took the Autumn Examination very seriously, not to mention the powerful families in Beijing. If not the whole family would go, at least they would be escorted by close family members all the way to take the exam.

He really hoped to see her outside.

I always feel that the topic someone wanted to talk about just now was not this...

Mu Qingli didn't expose his treachery. She just glanced at him with her head tilted and looked him up and down with a teasing look, then winked at him playfully.

"Well, if you want me to go so badly, then I'll accompany Aunt Fang to see you off."

Gu Luoheng's tense expression relaxed when he heard this. He tried hard to suppress the corners of his lips that wanted to curl up, and after a while he finally hummed.

Then he led her forward again, and in his low, pleasant voice, he gently introduced every place in the house to her. Perhaps he didn't even notice that the corners of his lips were always raised.

Mu Qingli lowered his eyes to hide the smile on the corners of his lips. His eyes were filled with twinkling stars. He strolled for a while in a very good mood until the sky gradually darkened.

She spotted a rockery, and with quick eyes and hands, she imitated someone else's actions just now, grabbed his arm and pulled him into the rockery. The winding rockery soon concealed the figures of the two.

It was obvious that the two were about to whisper to each other. Qiu Jin smiled and tactfully looked away, taking a few steps back, leaving them enough space to talk.

Gu Luoheng was suddenly pulled in without any resistance. When he raised his eyes, he saw the girl standing with her hands behind her back, approaching him with a smile on her face.

It was not until his entire body was pushed back step by step until it was directly against the rockery that he spoke softly with his Adam's apple rolling.

"What's wrong? Is there something you want to tell me?"

Mu Qingli put her hands behind her back, squinted her eyes, bent her slender waist slightly and leaned forward to carefully examine his expression, then snorted in dissatisfaction.

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? What did you want to say just now but swallowed it back? Hmm~"

Gu Luoheng was slightly startled, and then a smile appeared in his eyes, with a tenderness and tenderness that he himself was not aware of.

There was an inextricable affection hidden in those deep and quiet eyes, and there were tiny waves of light in his eyes when he looked at her.

After a moment's silence, he spoke in a low, hoarse voice, "How about I propose marriage after the Autumn Examination? What we are going to do is too dangerous, and I'm worried about what might happen in the meantime."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come and propose marriage at home."

Instead, Mu Qingli looked up at him, and with his sharp eyes he caught a glimpse of a rare trace of uneasiness in someone's eyes. Then he chuckled and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

I thought someone had found out something and didn't tell her, but it turns out they were worried that she would be snatched away by someone else?

She looked up at his delicate face, and he was also staring at her quietly, with an endless smile spreading in his eyes, like a pearl with a halo of brilliance, dazzling for a moment.

He didn't notice at all that Gu Luoheng's body suddenly tensed up and his gaze suddenly shifted away.

At this time, the distance between the two was very close. He could almost smell the faint fragrance emanating from the girl in front of him. The wisps of fragrance swirled between his nostrils, making him feel a little dazed.

Mu Qingli's heart softened at the gentle gaze, and she couldn't help but raise her hands to hold his face, slightly tilting her head to place a gentle kiss on his lips.

If she hadn't been so foolish in her previous life, she and him would have been a couple that everyone would envy, a couple with deep love and affection. If so many things hadn't happened, she would have fallen for his gentleness sooner or later. How could it have ended in such a miserable way? And it even implicated him...

This caught Gu Luoheng off guard. His whole body tensed up and trembled slightly, as if something was falling heavily on his heart. Even his breathing stopped completely at this moment.

I just felt numb all over, spreading from my lips to my whole body, and my brain, which had always been able to plan and strategize, suddenly shut down and became blank.

Mu Qingli kept her eyes open, and when she saw his trembling pupils clearly, she subconsciously wanted to laugh, but her heart was beating fast as well. In the end, she didn't dare to go too far, and just stayed close to him for a while before stepping back to allow him to breathe.

She raised her hand to rub her burning ears, still looking at him with a smile, and said softly, "I will send Grandpa Gu's medicine later. I will go back today, so you don't need to send me off."

Who knew that before she turned around, there was a big hand on her waist, which gently took her into his arms, with tenderness hidden between his brows.

Gu Luoheng really mustered up a lot of courage to be so abrupt. He tried hard to regulate his breathing before speaking in a low, hoarse voice.

"The Autumn Examination is still a few days away. Be good and don't make too much noise these days, otherwise I will worry about you. This road is not easy to walk, but we must proceed steadily and not rush."

Does this mean you know what she did to the Zhu family?

Mu Qingli did not hide her feelings in front of him at all. After hesitating for a moment, she raised her hands and hugged him back, rubbing her head gently on someone's chest, which was a rare moment of being well-behaved.

"I understand. The Zhu family's affairs have come to an end. Someone will take care of the rest for us. I won't take any action from now on."

It was rare for Gu Luoheng to be so close to the opposite sex, and the other person was the one he had liked since childhood. Even though his face and ears were extremely red, he was reluctant to let go.

But she still had some clarity of mind, fearing that someone passing by might see her and ruin her reputation, so she took a deep breath silently before letting the person go.

He stepped back a few steps cautiously, his eyes filled with emotion like the turbulent sea, but he couldn't help but lower his voice and said,

"That's not proper etiquette. We have to wait until we're married... Come on, I'll see you off to the carriage."

Mu Qingli nodded and licked her lips involuntarily. There was a strange light in her eyes as she stared at someone.

Well, of course she knew that this was against etiquette, but after finally living a new life, she no longer cared about these so-called etiquette constraints. Why should all the rules and etiquette be used to restrict them, women?

She had already decided to follow her heart and do only what she likes in this life.

When the two came out, Qiu Jin looked at them curiously. She looked expressionless, but in her heart she couldn't help but wonder what the two had said.

Before she could ask, she saw two figures walking quickly towards them and quickly frowned.
