I was Idle and Cool - Chapter 146
This is a love story.
Gentle love.
But when it rang in his ears, Lu Jinxi didn’t feel the emotion he should have, instead, for some ulterior reason, he was horrified!
At this moment, she quietly held her breath, and her repressed and restrained gaze fell on Gu Juefei’s body with a hidden spy.
“Neither soon nor too late?”
“Yes.”
Gu Juefei laughed without any flaws, and explained the love words he just said very naturally.
“Xue Kuang is dead, you are a widow, and I’m not married yet. Isn’t it just right?”
is that what it means?
But she clearly felt that the meaning of his words just now was more and deeper than the meaning he expressed at the moment.
“You just said that I should have known the mountain bandit leader who kidnapped me?”
“No, I just thought you would know each other.”
Gu Juefei has always been the kind of person who tells lies without blinking his eyes. Seeing that Lu Jinxi seemed to have a faint vigilance, he still wanted to tease him, so he effortlessly told Yuan Cai’s words.
“I know this person. He had some connections with the General’s Mansion. But I thought it was wrong. You didn’t open the door, and you didn’t step in the second door. It’s normal that you don’t recognize him.”
It has some origins with the General’s Mansion…
These words really matched Lu Jinxi’s previous speculation.
She couldn’t tell what she was feeling for a while, and vaguely felt that Gu Juefei’s words were not so simple, but everything the other party said was so reasonable.
Her brows twitched slightly, she glanced at Gu Juefei and didn’t answer.
Gu Juefei didn’t notice it at all. The pulp of her finger was still moving on her lips, but it slowly slipped down, and lightly tapped on the newly healed scar on her neck.
meal.
Then he casually changed the subject: “Most of these people have something to do with the Xiongnu. I don’t know you have been robbed for several days, but what did you find?”
His fingertips were a little cold, and they landed on her neck, which inevitably caused a little trembling that could not be concealed. Lu Jinxi only felt that the person in front of him was reckless because he was still seriously injured.
It’s just that she’s not that easy to tease.
The man sat beside his bed, his expression did not change at all, he only said: “I have not found too much, and you can find what I can find. However, if there is anything special, there is really a little bit.”
“Oh?”
Gu Juefei felt a little interested.
Lu Jinxi recalled and said, “When I was detained in the mountains by them, I accidentally heard a voice mentioning a name. If I heard correctly, it should be ‘Lord Lan’.”
Sir Lan?
Orchid? !
Gu Juefei’s pupils tightened instantly, but in his mind it was like a giant wave rolled to smash all the obstacles.
“Lan, Lan…”
He just said this twice, and then he laughed uncontrollably, happy and carefree, exactly the same as when he heard the earth-shattering cry in the Hulu Canyon that day!
“Everything counts, it’s really him, hahaha!”
Orchid.
Isn’t the very favored Chinese gentleman of the Huns Khan called “Lanye”?
As early as when he heard about this, he felt that something was not quite right in his heart, and it was only now that he confirmed his guess!
Six years ago, he survived the battle of Hanshan Pass!
From then on, the general Zhenguo, who made Yidi feel terrified, disappeared from the land of Daxia, and changed his body.
What a good Xue Kuang, what a good Lanye!
He was about to laugh too much, and the wound on his right shoulder was affected, and it hurt like a tear for a while. But even so, it didn’t make him stop.
Lu Jinxi almost suspected that he was crazy.
Naturally, she didn’t know any person surnamed “Lan” at all. At this moment, she only felt confused, and only looked at Gu Juefei and smiled for a long time.
When he was almost smiling, she asked, “Do you know this person?”
“know.”
Gu Juefei did not deny it at all.
At this time, he immediately knew where his advantage was in the “war” of seduction and control with Lu Jinxi.
The thing is, he knows more than she does.
So without the vague worries of gain and loss in the past, Gu Juefei now looks relaxed and freehand, like a landscape painting hanging on the wall.
The shades are appropriate like splashing ink, and it has a lofty artistic conception.
Lu Jinxi was suddenly curious: “Do you have any grudges?”
“Have a grudge.” Gu Juefei said all the truth this time, and when the corners of his lips curved, murderous intent overflowed, “And it’s a great grudge that he won’t kill me, and I won’t kill him.”
“…I originally thought that the legendary eldest son of Gu, who knew all over the world, was friends with everyone, and rarely made enemies.”
There was a little more strangeness in Lu Jinxi’s voice.
“It’s a little surprising that you still have enemies.”
“A man lives in the world, he does something, and he doesn’t.” Gu Juefei stared at her fixedly, “I only have many friends, but it’s not that I have no enemies.”
“So, this person surnamed Lan is extremely sinful?”
Lu Jinxi heard his subtext.
Gu Juefei blinked, and seemed to think for a while, and his expression gradually became unpredictable, but he finally replied: “Right or wrong, later generations will comment. There is no doubt that the crime is extremely sinful, but in the early years, there were…”
He has also made contributions and established his career, defending the family and the country.
The rest he couldn’t say.
Maybe it was out of respect for this unprecedentedly powerful enemy, or maybe it was because he was afraid of revealing too much and letting Lu Jinxi know too much.
He sighed softly, only stretched out his hand to her, took her into his arms, and asked in a low voice, “Now the capital is full of gossip about you and me, are you afraid?”
“Not afraid.”
In my heart, I actually refused this embrace, but when I touched his pale face and warm eyes, I didn’t know why, and my heart softened.
Lu Jinxi let him hug him and pressed his cheek against his chest.
beating heart.
Diffuse medicinal smell.
There’s an unprecedented sense of solidity.
She has no words.
Gu Juefei also fell silent.
Outside the window is the raucous torrential rain, but inside the house is filled with warmth.
For a moment, Lu Jinxi even had the illusion that they would hug each other like this until the end of the day.
But soon this illusion was interrupted.
There were hurried footsteps outside, followed by Ji Wuwei’s flustered and emotional voice: “Master Taishi, Master Taishi, you can’t enter…”
“boom.”
The door was pushed open.
Gu Chengqian, the imperial court master with a livid face, appeared outside the door in a normal uniform. When he was able to see the situation inside the house, he felt a “hum” in his head, and he almost became unsteady.
Lu Jinxi suddenly felt a little stunned.
At this moment, she gently leaned against Gu Juefei’s arms, and Gu Juefei’s hands also gently wrapped around her, resting the lower jaw in her neck socket.
This situation, how to see, how…
Eyelids jumped uncontrollably.
Lu Jinxi asked herself that she was a veteran in love affairs, but she had no experience at all in the current situation, which was close to being “caught raped” by her elders.
The moment she looked at Gu Chengqian, she wanted to stand up.
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to get up, a resistance came from the arms that embraced her, and she seemed unwilling to let her get up.
She was startled and looked at Gu Juefei.
Gu Juefei also gave her a deep look, and then, as if he had just reacted, he let go of her hand and let her leave his embrace.
“Jin Xi pays respects to Master Taishi and asks Master Taishi.”
Inexplicably a little uneasy in his heart, Lu Jinxi looked at the shocked and distressed eyes of Mrs. Gu, only to feel a lot of pressure, and hurriedly saluted.
But Gu Juefei, who was sitting on the bed, didn’t react at all.
He didn’t even try to get up, he just hid his sincere and soft expression, put on a fake and distant smile, and greeted his father lukewarm.
“Master Taishi is here, but it is rude to fail to go out to greet him.”
“…”
Almost instantly, Lu Jinxi heard something was wrong. This undisguised cold tone, and the hidden smell of gunpowder in this father-son duo!
Did she accidentally step on any landmine?
The feeling of bottomless, once again aggravated.
Lu Jinxi raised his head quietly, only to see Gu Chengqian’s wrinkled face, not the slightest smile when he saw his son wake up out of danger, only the dark cloud of depression, and the faint anger that was about to erupt!
But this anger did not fall on Lu Jinxi.
Gu Chengqian really didn’t expect that Gu Juefei, this wicked son of a bitch, would actually dare to do it, and even dare to belittle Xue Kuang’s widow’s wife and do something to her!
Really think that the old man is dead!
“Niece Jinxi, go out first, I have something to say to this wicked son.” Gu Chengqian’s face was ugly, obviously suppressing his anger without leaving any trace of affection for Gu Juefei, “Now the gossip in Beijing is all my fault This unworthy son. Please niece Jinxi stay for a few days, and I will let him give you an explanation. “
explain?
Did this old lady misunderstand something…
Lu Jinxi felt that it was unspeakable, and wanted to explain, but she felt the tension between father and son, and felt that this was really not the place for him to stay.
Not to mention, the old lady just issued an order to evict guests.
So at this time, she could not judge the situation.
It was inconvenient to turn around to look at Gu Juefei again, and just followed Gu Chengqian’s words: “The relationship between the niece and the eldest son is not what you think, please don’t get angry. Jin Xi also came to visit. After the eldest son, it’s time to go back to the general’s mansion, and he will come to the door and thank the eldest son for saving his life.”
After she finished speaking, she bowed and bowed again, and made a thorough etiquette before and after, then lowered her eyebrows and wanted to leave the depressed room.
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to take a step, her hand was pulled by a hand behind her.
I can’t even step out.
At this moment, Lu Jinxi only felt a kind of creepy horror!
She looked back and saw that Gu Juefei’s hand was holding one of hers tightly, her eyes fell on her face, but she didn’t see Taishi Gu next to her, she was very light.
“Lu Jinxi.”
He called out.
Lu Jinxi was stunned, not knowing why he was holding him back, and how he should respond to this situation.
Had to be speechless.
Gu Juefei laughed slowly, those eyes looked deeply into her heart, and said to her very seriously, very seriously, very seriously: “Do you know? Today, it’s me for the past six years, The happiest day ever.”
The happiest day in six years.
At this moment, he said such a seemingly simple sentence in a very serious tone, but inadvertently, it brought an unspeakable shock.
Like a gust of wind, it slammed open the door of her heart.
Lu Jinxi only felt as if he had been scalded by his words or his hand, and suddenly retracted his hand in embarrassment.
Inexplicably, he didn’t dare to look back at Gu Chengqian.
It wasn’t until he walked straight out of the door, stood far away in the corridor at the other end, and was blown by the wind mixed with a little tide in the rain curtain, that he woke up from the drunken trance.
She lowered her eyes and spread out her hand that Gu Juefei had just pulled.
His fingertips seemed to still have his cool temperature and the smell of the bitter medicine attached to him.
Heart.
Suddenly out of her control, chaos.
