Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Gu Qianhan glanced at him. It turned out that Xiao Qingyuan was not completely stupid. He actually knew that he didn't like Elder Liu's daughter.

"You've ruined my reputation, who else should I trouble if not you?"

Gu Qianhan asked casually, "Where is the maid you always keep with you? Why didn't you bring her out today?"

Xiao Qingyuan glared at him: "Don't think about Hua Yi anymore. I don't like her anymore. I don't care even if you snatch her away!"

"You don't like her so quickly? Isn't the prince known as the most infatuated and good man in Dafeng? How come you get tired of the old and fall in love with the new so quickly?"

"Why would you mind my business? If you need a woman, go find one at Wanhua Tower instead of thinking about me all the time!"

"I'll leave the Wanhua Tower to you. I find it dirty."

After Gu Qianhan finished speaking, he walked out of the private room.

Xiao Qingyuan looked at his back and felt dizzy with anger.

Fortunately, Liao Youhe and Xin Huailin comforted him, and he suppressed his anger: "Mo Ji, pour the wine. I won't go home until Brother Liao and Brother Xin are drunk today!"

……

Zuixian Tower.

Shen Wantang was chatting with Gu Qianning when she saw Gu Qianning pointing out the window: "My second brother is back. Hey, he seems to have bought something."

Shen Wantang looked outside in the direction her finger pointed, and sure enough, she saw Gu Qianhan walking towards them, with his servant Jixiang holding two pendants in his hands.

After a while, Gu Qianhan went upstairs and entered the private room.

Gu Qianning stood up and stepped forward, snatching the ornament from Jixiang's hand: "Second brother, is this what you bought for me?"

"Ah."

Gu Qianhan responded indifferently and stood by the window.

Gu Qianning picked up two ornaments and showed them to Shen Wantang: "Atang, look, this is very interesting!"

The pendant is a hollow ball woven with bamboo strips. There is a bell hanging under the ball, and inside the ball are small bamboo animals. One ball contains a little rabbit, and the other contains a little fox. Although they are made of bamboo, they are all lifelike.

A gust of wind blew in, the bells jingled, the ball turned, and the little rabbit and little fox inside rolled around, which was so cute and interesting.

Shen Wantang chuckled: "It's quite interesting."

However, it just looked like something to coax a child, but she didn't know that Gu Qianhan had such a tender side and was willing to buy these little gadgets to coax his sister.

But the next moment, Gu Qianning handed two balls to her: "Which one do you like? Pick one!"

Shen Wantang subconsciously looked at Gu Qianhan, and when she found that he was also looking at her, she quickly looked away: "This is a gift from your second brother, how can I accept it."

"What's so great about this? My second brother bought two. One for each of us is just right! Come on, pick one."

Shen Wantang was still hesitating.

Gu Qianning was unhappy: "Atang, you won't dislike my things, right? Aren't we good friends? I gave you a bamboo ball and you don't even want it?"

Shen Wantang had no choice but to give it up. She pointed at the little fox helplessly and said, "I want this."

Gu Qianning was happy again. She handed the little fox to Shen Wantang and turned around with the little rabbit in her hand: "I happened to be born in the year of the rabbit. This suits me perfectly!"

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Shen Wantang's fingers that were fiddling with the bell paused.

Gu Qianhan specially bought two, and one of them was his sister's zodiac sign. He had probably calculated that if she wanted it, she would definitely want the other one.

He picked this little fox specifically for her.

The thought flashed through his mind, and Shen Wantang shook his head gently again.

Not necessarily. Maybe he bought the little fox for his sister. After all, there is not much point in picking two identical little rabbits.

She rang the bell again, watching the spinning ball and the little fox rolling around inside, she couldn't help but smile. It's true, these little toys for children are really fun, she has never played with them in her past life.

Gu Qianhan leaned against the wall near the window, looking at the smile on Shen Wantang's face, and his hard heart became soft.

Perhaps stimulated by Xiao Qingyuan, he did not keep a distance from her this time. He stood by the window, very close to her, so close that he could almost touch the corner of her clothes.

The winter sun shone in through the window and fell on Shen Wantang, covering her with a layer of soft and warm light, adding a dazzling brilliance to her already outstanding face.

Her sister's laughter and voice attracted her attention. She did not see that he was looking at her, nor did she see the ambition and greed for her hidden under his cold appearance.

If the Gu family can survive the crisis, he thought, he would not be able to control himself, and he would use all his tricks and means to snatch her away.

If the Gu family cannot survive the crisis...

No, you can definitely get through it!

Gu Qianning's heart was pounding when she saw her second brother staring at Shen Wantang intently. She was afraid that Shen Wantang would notice something unusual and kept pulling her aside to talk.

While Shen Wantang was playing with the ball, she kicked her second brother hard.

Gu Qianhan felt pain and then looked away.

But Gu Qianning was very afraid that he could no longer control himself. What if Shen Wantang discovered his second brother’s evil ambitions? How would he face her in the future?

She could only lie and say that she had something else to do at home. She hurriedly said goodbye to Shen Wantang and took Gu Qianhan away.

After leaving Zuixianlou and getting on the carriage, Gu Qianning's face turned cold: "Second brother, you wanted to give Atang something, I helped you, and she accepted it, but can you be more careful, the way you looked at her just now was like a wolf! You looked like you wanted to eat her!"

Gu Qianhan's voice remained indifferent without any ups and downs: "You think too much."

Gu Qianning said angrily: "I'm not stupid!"

Her second brother never gave her anything, let alone bought her those rare and fun gadgets to please her. When he came back with the two balls, she knew that they were not bought for her, but for Shen Wantang.

He just wants to make people happy.

"Brother, this won't work. I'll be scared to death by you. Why don't you just stop seeing Atang in the future?"

Because she suspected that if no one else was present, he might lose his mind and hug her in his arms - at least, that was the meaning in his eyes when he looked at Shen Wantang just now.

Gu Qianhan did not agree with her. He asked her not to see the prince anymore, but wasn't she able to do it?

He had died once, and now that he had the chance to see Shen Wantang again, how could he let her go?

Seeing that he didn't respond, Gu Qianning knew that he was unwilling, so she said earnestly: "Second brother, she is married and has a husband. If you really want to do it for her own good, you should stay away from her. You should be a gentleman and not a villain who covets other people's wives!"

Gu Qianhan looked indifferent: "I never said that I was a gentleman. It is better to be a villain than a gentleman."

"Second brother, she doesn't like you!"

"Shut up."

"I won't take you to see her anymore!"

"Then don't even think about seeing the prince anymore."

"Gu Qianhan!"

"I just said, it's better to be a villain than a gentleman. Do you have no ears or no brains?"
