"Old Six, didn't you go back to your room to rest?"
Gu Yanran looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"Who said that?"
"Big sister …"
"…"
Gu Yunxiao twitched his mouth as his expression became more and more impatient. He turned around and was about to leave.
"Old Six, you're leaving just like that?"
Seeing that he didn't even say anything to Yuwen Qingge, Gu Yanran hurriedly called out to him.
"Mm …"
Gu Yunxiao squinted his blue eyes and replied coldly.
He stepped forward without any hesitation.
"Hey, Old Sixth …" "Sixth Brother …"
Seeing that he was so cold, Gu Yanran looked a little apologetic. She hurriedly called out to him again.
"Sister Yanran, Big Brother Yunxiao looks really tired. Let him go back and rest, shall we?"
Yuwen Qingge gave her a light tug. Although she felt a little disappointed, she hid it well on the surface.
"Yeah, he must be too tired. He's even got dark circles under his eyes …"
Gu Yanran continued with her 'explanation'.
"Qingge, let's go."
"Alright."
Yuwen Qingge glanced in the direction Gu Yunxiao had left. She was reluctant to look back as she carried Gu Yanran to the front of the rack.
In this short period of time, half of the dark clouds that were densely packed in the sky above the Lingyun Stage had actually dissipated, and the sunlight was faintly shining down from the sky. The flowers and plants in the garden became a tinge more beautiful.
The two of them sat on an autumn rack, each of them holding onto a rope, gently swaying it.
Flowers twined around the autumn stand, dancing lightly.
A faint fragrance of flowers lingered between his nostrils.
"Sister Yanran, why does Big Brother Yunxiao look so haggard?"
Yuwen Qingge tilted her head and looked at Gu Yanran, who was beside her, as she asked with concern.
"He just came back from the Yunjing. The time difference hasn't roughly arrived yet …"
Gu Yanran smiled faintly at her. He was getting more and more certain that Yuwen Qingge really had a crush on Gu Yunxiao.
"Yunjing?"
Yuwen Qingge suddenly tightened her grip on the rope. Her long eyelashes blinked as she mumbled softly.
"What is he doing there? To see 'her'? "
These words were clearly asking Gu Yanran, and really asking herself.
She had gone to the Yunjing before and even did a small operation there. As such, she was no stranger to the city with its rich cultural heritage.
"Qingge, what did you say?"
Yuwen Qingge's words were spoken softly, so Gu Yanran didn't hear it clearly.
"Nothing?"
Yuwen Qingge pursed her lips and smiled.
"You don't have to worry about him. A night owl like him can easily be adjusted."
Gu Yanran held her hand.
"Yes."
Yuwen Qingge smiled and nodded.
Gu Yanran also smiled.
The two chatted without saying a word. Although they were a few years apart, there didn't seem to be any gap between them, so they chatted very harmoniously.
"..."
Gu Anhe turned around and angrily walked toward the west hall of Lingyun Stage.
Along the way, the servants bowed their heads and greeted respectfully.
"Eldest Young Master, good …"
"Eldest Young Master …"
Gu Liancheng was seriously ill, and Gu Anhe became the 'leader'. He was originally vicious, so these people naturally tensed up, afraid that they would offend him.
Actually, in the hearts of these servants, they were more looking forward to Gu Yunxiao taking over the Gu family.
Gu Yunxiao was a kind-hearted person. Although he looked unruly on the surface, he actually felt very warm inside.
However, such an idea could only be an 'idea'.
They knew of Gu Anhe's methods. As for Gu Yunxiao, he didn't seem to be interested in anything regarding the Gu family.
"…"
Gu Anhe walked away quickly without even looking at the servants.
When they arrived at the west hall, Gu family's Second Sister, Gu Mingran, was currently sitting with a man and a woman. On the tea table in front of them, tea and fruits were placed on the table.
The incense burner at the corner burned with a faint fragrance.
"Eldest Young Master …"
"Big brother …"
When Gu Mingran and the other man and woman saw him, they hurriedly stood up.
"Uncle Pei, Aunt Kou …"
Gu Anhe walked over with one hand in his pocket. His tone was slightly cold.
"Big brother, you're here. I'll go see father then …"
When Gu Mingran saw him, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Compared to Gu Yanran, her personality was a bit more introverted. Originally, such an occasion should not be entertained by her. But the moment Gu Anhe and Gu Yunxiao returned, Gu Yanran pulled Yuwen Qingge out for a walk. Gu Pianran made an excuse to go to the kitchen to prepare lunch. The task of receiving the guests fell onto her shoulders.
"Yes."
Gu Anhe's feelings towards his sisters were neither good nor bad. Compared to Gu Yunxiao, it was much better.
"Uncle Pei, Aunt Kou, you two take your time …"
"Alright."
Yuwen Pei and Du Kou nodded with a smile.
"Uncle Pei, you came to visit my father. I am very grateful …"
"Eldest Young Master is too courteous. Your father is my friend. Since he is so ill, I should naturally come visit …"
The two chatted in a courteous manner.
"I heard that Miss Yuwen is also here. Why haven't I seen her?"
Gu Anhe picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip. The deep blue eyes were cold.
"Fifth Miss has invited Ge'er to take a walk outside …"
"Oh …"
Gu Anhe replied indifferently. Following which, he smiled charmingly at Yuwen Pei and Du Kouxie.
"Uncle Pei, I've heard something recently. I wonder if it's true or not?"
"I wonder what Eldest Young Master heard?"
Yuwen Pei looked at Gu Anhe's gloomy face and felt his scalp tingle.
Even though he was older than Gu Anhe by two rounds, his bearing was shorter by half.
"I heard that the wangfei wants to matchmaking me, Sixth Brother, and betroth your eldest miss to him …"
Gu Anhe smiled faintly with a cold expression.
Yuwen Pei's back tensed up while Du Kou's expression changed slightly.
"Eldest Young Master, Ge'er has just reached adulthood and has just gotten married. It's still too early to talk about this."
"Uncle Pei, do you mean that this news is false? Or did you and Aunt Kou not like me, Sixth Brother? "
Gu Anhe's dark eyes were like a poisonous snake spitting out a red letter.
Yuwen Pei could not help but regret his decision to come. He replied with an awkward smile.
"Eldest Young Master, Sixth Young Master is a talented young man with a bright future ahead of him. Is it because we, Ge'er, aren't worthy of him?"
"Oh, really?"0
Gu Anhe drank the tea in his cup in one gulp. The left corner of his mouth twitched as the index finger and thumb of his right hand slowly rotated the blue and white porcelain cup.
Yuwen Pei and Du Kou watched worriedly as the teacup fell to the ground.
"Yes …"
"Uncle Pei, since you think your Miss is not worthy of me, Sixth Brother, why don't you consider me?"
The left corner of Gu Anhe's mouth curled up as his charming smile turned cold.
"Eldest Young Master, you …"
Du Kou was so angry that her face turned green. She could no longer control her emotions and stood up.
"Madam …"
Yuwen Pei immediately pulled her.
"Eldest Young Master, even if we, Ge'er, were to become a nun in this life, we wouldn't marry you …"
Du Kou was infuriated and did not consider the consequences of those words.
"Madam …"
Yuwen Pei didn't expect her to say such a thing. He subconsciously looked at Gu Anhe's face first.
