My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin

245. Leisurely stroll in the rain and romance

The two talked about their elders and relatives at home, sharing their thoughts and concerns for each other.

Before we knew it, the sun was setting in the west, and a gorgeous sunset glow appeared on the horizon, dyeing the entire lake surface orange-red.

Gu Jinxuan looked at the sky and sighed softly: "Time flies so fast, we should go back. I wonder how those kids are doing playing together."

Lin Qingxue stood up with a smile: "I'm sure they had a lot of fun. Let's go! Go back and see them."

The two walked back along the lake hand in hand. Along the way, they occasionally met a few passers-by who couldn't help but cast envious glances at them.

When I returned to the yard, I heard bursts of laughter coming from inside.

When I opened the door, I saw Lin Xiaoshan, Lin Xiaoqi, Lin Xiaotao and Gu Huaiyuan sitting together, playing games. The table was filled with snacks and fruits they had bought.

Seeing Lin Qingxue and Gu Jinxuan coming back, the children stood up and greeted them.

Lin Xiaoshan ran over excitedly and shouted, "Aunt, you're finally back! We had such a great time just now."

Lin Qingxue smiled and patted his head: "Seeing you guys having so much fun, your uncle and I are relieved."

Gu Huaiyuan also stepped forward and said with a smile: "Dad, Mom, where did you go this afternoon? Do you want to have dinner together tonight?"

Gu Jinxuan smiled and patted his shoulder: "Did you have fun? Let's have dinner together tonight! Your mother and I are going out for a while tomorrow, so you can go shopping on your own. Do you have enough money? If not, ask your mother for more."

Gu Huaiyuan nodded vigorously: "Okay, I understand. What are we having for dinner? The food here in Nancheng or the food at home?"

"I want to eat at home. I can't get used to the food in South City," Lin Xiaoshan said first.

"Me too, I want to eat home-cooked food too. I haven't eaten it for a long time. I miss grilled fish, milk tea and barbecue so much," Lin Xiaoqi said with a sad face.

"Okay, you can eat as much as you want when you go back. You can't eat here anymore," Lin Qingxue said gloatingly. She had no plans to open a branch here.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to make this money, but apart from the Imperial City, other cities are not very stable, and her Lin family doesn’t have such connections, so it’s better to hold on to the Imperial City.

"Ah... aunt, you are so bad," Lin Xiaoshan cried out in pain, and the others couldn't help laughing.

Hearing everyone's laughter, Lin Xiaoshan was extremely ashamed and angry. Gu Huaiyuan held back his laughter and called the servants to the kitchen to order food.

Looking at the innocent smiling faces of the children, Lin Qingxue and Gu Jinxuan smiled at each other, their hearts filled with warmth.

That night, everyone sat together, eating dinner and sharing the fun things of the day. A warm atmosphere filled the entire yard.

After eating and drinking, the stars in the sky became brighter and brighter, like gems inlaid in the night sky.

In the yard, Lin Xiaoshan and a few others were running around and playing. Gu Jinxuan and Lin Qingxue looked at the energetic children and were also infected by their enthusiasm. He hugged her and stood beside them watching the children play.

As for the second prince, he went back to his room to rest after dinner. No one else paid any attention to him. With him around, everyone felt uncomfortable having fun!

The moonlight is like water, sprinkling on everyone, adding a touch of romance to everyone.

Before they knew it, it was late at night and the children's eyelids began to grow heavy.

Noticing everyone's actions, Gu Jinxuan said loudly, "It's getting late. Everyone, go back to your rooms and rest! You can go shopping on your own tomorrow."

"I understand, Dad/Uncle-in-law," Gu Huaiyuan and the other three responded in unison.

"Let's go! Let's go back to our room and rest!" Gu Jinxuan said, holding Lin Qingxue's hand and walking towards their room.

Lin Qingxue was looking ahead and didn't notice Gu Jinxuan's eyes at all. There was a hint of eagerness and desire in his eyes when he looked at her.

After returning to the room, Lin Qingxue was about to sit down when Gu Jinxuan gently pulled her. She turned around and fell into his warm arms.

Gu Jinxuan's breathing was a little rapid. He held Lin Qingxue's face in his hands and looked at her affectionately, with the desire in his eyes becoming stronger and stronger.

"Qingxue, every moment with you is so precious to me. Seeing you getting along so well with the children today, my heart is filled with happiness," Gu Jinxuan said in a low voice with a hint of gentle temptation.

Lin Qingxue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she gently punched his chest: "You, why are you suddenly so cheesy today?"

However, the smile in her eyes could not be hidden, and it was full of love for Gu Jinxuan.

Gu Jinxuan didn't say anything, but slowly lowered his head and kissed Lin Qingxue's lips. The kiss was passionate and affectionate, as if to incorporate all the love between them into it.

Lin Qingxue was a little shy at first, but soon immersed in the sweetness, and her hands unconsciously wrapped around Gu Jinxuan's neck.

It was unknown how long it had been before the two slowly separated. Lin Qingxue leaned in Gu Jinxuan's arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, and felt that the years were quiet and the world was stable.

"Qingxue, we have been through so much together. No matter what happens in the future, we must not separate, okay?" Gu Jinxuan whispered softly in her ear.

"Okay, we will never separate." Lin Qingxue answered firmly.

After bathing, Lin Qingxue's skin looked like it was soaked in milk, with a charming glow.

Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes still retained the laziness and tenderness from her bathing. Her soft hair stuck to her cheeks wetly, adding a touch of charm.

Gu Jinxuan held her tightly in his arms, his strong and powerful arms seemed to want to rub her into his body.

The moonlight is like silver gauze, gently filtering through the thin curtains and falling on the antique bed.

In the room, clothes were scattered on the floor in a mess, outer clothes were casually hung on the back of the chair, and underwear was half-hidden by the bed, like traces of this sweet love left inadvertently.

On the bed, the two figures were intertwined.

Gu Jinxuan propped himself up slightly and gazed at Lin Qingxue in his arms affectionately, his eyes full of burning love and pity.

He leaned down gently, and placed small kisses on her forehead, eyebrows, cheeks, and finally on her lips. That gentle and eager kiss seemed to want to integrate her into his life.

Lin Qingxue's cheeks were burning hot, and her hands unconsciously hooked around his neck, her fingers slightly curled, as if responding to this strong love.

The bed swayed gently with the movements of the two people, making a slight creaking sound, which was intertwined with the occasional soft gasps. It seemed particularly alluring in the quiet night, outlining a picture of passion that belonged only to them.

As the night deepened, the entire yard was shrouded in silence. Only the faint sounds coming from behind the tightly closed window added a unique touch of beauty to the quiet night.

After an unknown amount of time, everything gradually returned to calm. The two people lay on the bed hugging each other. Lin Qingxue's cheeks were still slightly flushed. She rested her head in Gu Jinxuan's arms, breathing evenly and gently, and had fallen into a deep sleep.

Gu Jinxuan was not sleepy at all. He gently stroked Lin Qingxue's long hair, his eyes full of tenderness and satisfaction, recalling every detail of their journey together.

From the initial heartbeat to facing the ups and downs of life together later, every memory is extremely precious in his heart.

He silently swore in his heart that he would protect her and give her a life of stability and happiness.

Finally, Gu Jinxuan let Lin Qingxue sleep in his arms, and the two of them slept tightly in each other's arms.

After dawn, Lin Qingxue opened her eyes and saw Gu Jinxuan's sleeping face. She reached out and touched his face, and a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Looking outside, it was already bright, but she had no intention of getting up. She still snuggled in Gu Jinxuan's arms, looking at him without blinking.

Perhaps Lin Qingxue's gaze was too fiery, Gu Jinxuan slowly opened his eyes, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Lin Qingxue looking at him.

Gu Jinxuan had just woken up, and his mind was still unclear. He subconsciously leaned over and kissed Lin Qingxue's forehead, and whispered, "Are you going to get up?"

"Get up! It's getting late," Lin Qingxue said in a low voice. The two of them played around until very late last night and overslept. If they didn't get up, they would really be laughed at.

The two men slowly got up and began to change their clothes. After they put on their clothes, they called the maid to help them wash up.

After washing up, Gu Jinxuan took Lin Qingxue's hand and walked out of the room. The yard was already sunny.

Lin Xiaoshan and his friends had already gotten up and were playing and laughing in the yard. When they saw them come out, they surrounded them.

"Aunt, uncle, you are finally up!" Lin Xiaoshan said jumping up and down, with a bright smile on her face.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Lin Xiaoqi also came over and asked, with a hint of cunning in her eyes.

Lin Qingxue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she nodded gently: "I slept very well, how about you?"

"We slept soundly too!" Lin Xiaotao quickly answered.

Gu Jinxuan put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "You guys can go out and play on the street by yourselves today! Remember to be safe and come back early."

"I know!" the children answered in unison, and then ran out of the yard happily.

At this time, the second prince also walked out of the room. When he saw Gu Jinxuan and Lin Qingxue, he nodded slightly.

"Second Prince, the weather is good today. Would you like to go out for a walk or stay in your room to rest?" Lin Qingxue looked at the Second Prince and asked seriously.

The Second Prince waved his hand and said, "I'm going to go out for a walk. You guys can have fun. I have secret guards with me, so don't worry about my safety."

Gu Jinxuan frowned slightly, but didn't want the Second Prince to follow them, so he could only say, "Then you can wander around the city by yourself and experience the customs and habits of South City. Be careful!"

The Second Prince nodded thoughtfully: "I understand. I'll be leaving first."

After saying that, the second prince turned around and walked outside without even eating breakfast.

Looking at the second prince's back, Gu Jinxuan and Lin Qingxue looked at each other, smiled tacitly, and walked towards the restaurant.

After a simple breakfast, the two of them rode out of the yard on a horse and headed towards the market in the south city.

Along the way, the streets were bustling with traffic. Gu Jinxuan held the reins in one hand and Lin Qingxue in the other, and the two of them shuttled through the crowd, looking around.

After walking forward for a while, Lin Qingxue was so hungry that the two of them found a stall to sit down and eat.

Along the way, they passed by many stalls, but Lin Qingxue didn't want to eat any of them, whether they were pancakes, buns, noodles or various snacks.

So, the two finally stopped in front of a stall selling wontons.

"Uncle, give me two bowls of wontons," Gu Jinxuan called out, then looked down at Lin Qingxue and said, "I'll go put the horses away over there. You go sit down and rest for a while, and you can eat later."

"Okay, then hurry up," Lin Qingxue nodded slightly. The wontons had a strong aroma, which made her even hungrier.

The wontons were cooked quickly and served. Lin Qingxue did not eat them, but waited for Gu Jinxuan to come and eat together.

After eating wontons, the two rode out of the city on horseback. Gu Jinxuan wanted to take Lin Qingxue to see the place where he had lived for several months.

The two men rode slowly out of the city, the breeze blowing gently, bringing with it the unique fresh scent of the suburbs.

Lin Qingxue leaned on Gu Jinxuan's back, feeling the warmth coming from him, her heart filled with sweetness and anticipation.

Soon, they arrived at the green grass outside the city. They stayed on the grass for a long time before getting up and continuing on their way.

As they walked, they found a clear stream in front of them. The water was gurgling and the stones and fish at the bottom of the water were clearly visible.

Gu Jinxuan pulled Lin Qingxue to the stream, squatted down, scooped up a handful of water with his hands, and the cool feeling instantly spread throughout his body.

"Qingxue, do you want to go down and play?" Gu Jinxuan's eyes were shining like a child. At this time, he no longer had the trace of the Prince of the Guardian State, and was just like an ordinary person.

Lin Qingxue smiled and nodded, and the two of them walked carefully into the stream. The water covered their ankles, bringing a refreshing coolness.

They played in the stream, splashing water and their laughter echoed through the valley.

After playing tired, the two sat on the rocks by the stream to rest. Gu Jinxuan took out a handkerchief from his arms and gently wiped the water droplets from Lin Qingxue's face.

Lin Qingxue looked at Gu Jinxuan's gentle appearance, and her heart moved. She took the initiative to move forward and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

Gu Jinxuan was slightly stunned, then he smiled happily and hugged Lin Qingxue tightly in his arms.

At this moment, a few dark clouds suddenly floated in the sky and the sky gradually darkened.

Gu Jinxuan looked up at the sky and said, "It looks like it's going to rain. Let's go back."

The two men hurriedly got up and walked towards where the horses were parked. As soon as they reached the horses, raindrops as big as beans began to fall.

Gu Jinxuan quickly untied the reins, jumped on the horse, pulled Lin Qingxue onto the horse, and then rode towards the city.

Along the way, the rain blurred the vision, but Gu Jinxuan protected Lin Qingxue tightly and controlled the horse steadily.

When they returned to the city, both of them were soaked, but they couldn't help laughing when they saw each other's miserable appearance.

After walking through the crowd on the street and returning to the yard, they found that Lin Xiaoshan and others had already returned and were sitting in the living room discussing what they had seen and heard on the street today.

Seeing Gu Jinxuan and Lin Qingxue coming back, the children gathered around them.

"Aunt, uncle, where have you been? Why are you so wet?" Lin Xiaoshan asked worriedly.

Lin Qingxue smiled and patted his head: "We went out of town to play, and it started raining when we came back. We couldn't find a place to hide from the rain, so we just came back."

Gu Jinxuan looked at the children and said, "You guys play first. Let's go back to the room and wash up. Huaiyuan, have someone prepare some water. Your mother and I need to take a shower and change clothes. Then have someone prepare some ginger soup."

"Yes, Dad, I'll go right away," Gu Huaiyuan ran away before he finished speaking.

Gu Jinxuan and Lin Qingxue said goodbye to everyone and went back to their room to wash and change clothes. It was not comfortable to wear wet clothes.
