Rebirth Strategy: Please let me go

An Jinshu turned to look at him in disbelief. Seeing the cold look in his eyes, goosebumps suddenly appeared all over her body. This annoying guy would no longer be bullied at the dinner table and would settle the score with her.

Fortunately, she had finished what she was supposed to say to brother Huai'an, sent out the gifts, and should have gone back to the table.

An Jinshu didn't think about it anymore. She turned around and looked at Sheng Huaian with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, brother Huai'an. This is the first time for my brother to attend such an occasion. I guess he is a little nervous. I will accompany him to the banquet. See you at the table."

Sheng Huaian glanced at the cold-faced young man with his warm eyes, and then smiled softly: "It doesn't matter, you go with Mr. Ling, I will sit down for a while and come back."

Seeing that he responded to An Jinshu, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Gu Qingchen and said, "Let's go."

Gu Qingchen didn't respond, but she left at the same time as the other person. Sheng Huaian stood in the corridor and watched them leave.

Suddenly, the young man who was halfway there stopped in his tracks, then turned back and smiled meaningfully at him. Sheng Huaian's brows jumped unconsciously.

After the figure disappeared from sight, Sheng Huaian lowered his head to look at the purse at his waist. He looked more worried than when he went to Beijing to take the exam.

Walking back to the courtyard banquet with Gu Qingchen, An Jinshu saw that the seat that had been empty just now was now full of people, and maids kept filing in, placing cakes and fruit tea on the white jade table, and the red willows and green trees interacted with each other. Huiying is so lively.

She looked at the audience and asked Gu Qingchen without moving her eyes: "Who bullied you?"

Gu Qingchen glanced at her: "No one bullied me."

"No one is bullying you. Why are you looking for me? Are you still saying that to me?" An Jinshu immediately lost his composure and raised his voice by two points.

Gu Qingchen looked innocent: "From the beginning to the end, I never told my sister that someone bullied me. It was my sister who misunderstood and couldn't blame me."

Dear Gu Qingchen...

An Jinshu laughed angrily, so she thought he was being bullied and left Sheng Huaian behind to rush out to stand up for him. But was she just being sentimental?

She was speechless, so she could only hold back her breath and gritted her teeth and said with a smile: "Then why are you looking for me? If I remember correctly, I have already sent you the private seal, so I don't want to delay you. "

"Sister, are you ready to embroider the brocade bag?" Gu Qingchen looked sideways at An Jinshu and asked suddenly.

What tips?

An Jinshu was suddenly stunned, and then suddenly remembered that when he went to deliver Gu Qingchen's wallet that day, he said he wanted a tips bag...

Can she say that she has forgotten it long ago?

That's not to be said. If she forgets about Gu Qingchen, she doesn't know what she's going to do.

An Jinshu coughed lightly and said calmly without any panic on his face: "I'm still embroidering."

In fact, nothing moved.

"Can it be completed the day after tomorrow?"

An Jinshu almost laughed angrily again. If she could finish it in the future, she might have to go blind.

She twitched her lips and answered simply: "No."

Gu Qingchen was silent. An Jinshu secretly glanced at him guiltily. Seeing his expressionless face, she quickly withdrew her gaze. She could not move against him.

Soon Gu Qingchen spoke again: "When will sister be able to embroider?"

"Five days." An Jinshu said without thinking.

"Five days then."

An Jinshu only heard Gu Qingchen chuckle, and then a shadow suddenly fell in front of him.

Gu Qingchen's unique cold fragrance hit her, and An Jinshu looked up for no apparent reason. The young man had moved from her side to in front of her, blocking the sunlight and the scenery in front of her.

An Jinshu unconsciously took a step back. Gu Qingchen was too close to her. She was so close that she could see the rising and falling of his chest and smell the cold fragrance. The oppressive feeling made her extremely unaccustomed to the unexplained panic.

Gu Qingchen saw An Jinshu's face showing panic, watching her involuntarily retreat and dodge, with ridicule in her eyes.

So afraid of him? Didn't you take the initiative to hold his hand in the first place?

"Sister, do you like him?"

"Who?" An Jinshu didn't react and subconsciously replied to him, who does she like?

The coldness in Gu Qingchen's cold eyes dissipated slightly, and his cold voice reminded her: "Sheng Huaian."

"What did brother say?"

An Jinshu burst out laughing as if she heard some joke, and then her heart jumped rapidly. Did Gu Qingchen see something in the side yard just now?

First he asked her about her tips, and then he asked her such strange questions. An Jinshu wouldn't believe it if he said he didn't see it.

She glanced sideways at Gu Qingchen, bit her lip and thought, her thoughts quickly passing through her mind. She didn't know what Gu Qingchen saw, but she couldn't let him misunderstand her and Sheng Huaian.

The two of them were innocent, how could they let him make wild guesses.

"Brother, please don't talk nonsense. Mr. Sheng is like my elder brother. I only respect him and have no feelings about men and women."

An Jinshu said solemnly: "We, the two siblings, can just talk about this. Don't say it again in the future, lest anyone who wants to hear it make a fuss about it."

Sheng Huaian had just won the top prize and was making people jealous. There were so many people trying to grab him and use the opportunity to pull him down. How could she let the gossip stain him with filth?

He should be as pure as ice and not stained by any mud. A noble and upright person like him should serve the country according to his destiny and then be respected by the people. He should marry a famous lady and have children for him and enjoy a happy life.

And she... her heart had been darkened a long time ago, so how could she be worthy of him? What's more, no matter in the previous life or in this life, Sheng Huaian was like her brother, and she didn't have any charming thoughts towards him.

Seeing that she had denounced her relationship with Sheng Huaian without any hesitation, the chill in Gu Qingchen's eyes gradually dissipated and she raised her lips and smiled: "It's just curiosity. If I don't like it, I won't say it again."

"Yeah." Seeing that he didn't ask further, An Jinshu quickly changed the subject: "The people at the table are almost here, let's take a seat too."

As she said that, she hurried past Gu Qingchen and walked towards the banquet, without even turning her head, for fear that when she turned around, Gu Qingchen would grab her and ask some incomprehensible questions.

What An Jinshu didn't know was that right behind her, where she never looked back, Sheng Huaian and Gu Qingchen were standing opposite each other. Sheng Huaian was standing behind her just now.

He and Gu Qingchen looked at each other from a short distance apart. One was smiling, the other was cold-faced. They seemed calm but the undercurrent in the middle was only felt by the two of them.

"I think I heard it too. My sister has no feelings for the number one scholar. I hope he won't misunderstand me." Gu Qingchen's eyes fell on Sheng Huaian's waist. Hanging there was none other than An Jinshu. A purse given to Sheng Huaian.

Sheng Huaian did not react to what he said, but looked at Gu Qingchen and raised his eyebrows in confusion: "It is rumored that Mr. Gu is only ten years old. How come it seems to Sheng that everything Mr. Gu says and does is not right?" As a ten-year-old boy should, is Mr. Gu really as old as he is?"

"If I had been growing up in Yangzhou City, I would be handsome, but don't forget, No. [-] Scholar, that I grew up in the frontier, so I can't compare with the noble young men in Yangzhou City."

"That's just Sheng's ignorance." Sheng Huaian chuckled, and looked past him to the girl who was rushing to the banquet: "Sister Yanyan has a simple heart, if she knew that her beloved brother had tricked her. I will definitely be sad. I hope Mr. Gu will not do this kind of thing in the future. Sister Yanyan and I just chatted in the side yard, and I just treat her like a younger sister."
