Hearing Gu Lang's question, Chen Xing hesitated for a moment.Although he was a little interested, he was still worried that he would not be able to bear such a bloody scene.

When Chen Xing was struggling, Gu Lang had already finished the three bowls of cakes that Chen Xing sent. He looked at the empty plate with a slightly regretful expression, and then said as if unintentionally: "I'm going out tomorrow. , originally thought that I could be with you."

Hearing what Gu Lang said, Chen Xing's attention was immediately attracted, and he looked at him and asked suspiciously: "What are you going out for?" As soon as the words came out, he felt something was wrong, after all, Gu Lang was a free man. Yes, there is no need to report to yourself when you go there.

Gu Lang looked at the embarrassment on Chen Xing's face, but said in a gentle voice: "Naturally, I will give the story book to the shopkeeper of the bookstore, and then get back the manuscript fee from him."

Chen Xing's eyes widened slightly, and he couldn't care less about embarrassment now. He used to wonder how Gu Lang and the others made a living, but now it seems that he has the answer.

Seeing Chen Xing's surprised look, Gu Lang continued to add: "It's just that this script can make some money, but I'm not in good health, so I can't write much each time, and the money I can earn is limited."

Chen Xing automatically interpreted Gu Lang's words as his sadness about not being able to make money, and immediately comforted him: "You are also like this because of poor health. When your health recovers, you will definitely be able to do more. Now I have also made money, and I will definitely make more after a while, and then I will return the money to you as soon as possible."

Gu Lang looked at the innocent expression on Chen Xing's face, his eyes darkened, and he said with a low laugh, "No hurry, the left and right expenses are enough, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

The look in Chen Xing's eyes when he looked at Gu Lang was a little more moved. It was obvious that Gu Lang and the others were in such a difficult situation, and they were always thinking of themselves. They really are good people!

Gu Lang was a little uncomfortable being stared at by Chen Xing's sparkling eyes, he looked away slightly, changed the subject and said, "By the way, I just asked about you, what's your answer?"

Doubt appeared on Chen Xing's face.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing who obviously forgot what he asked just now, and there was a little bit of pampering in his eyes that he didn't realize, and said softly: "Are you going out with me tomorrow?"

Hearing his deep and hoarse voice, Chen Xing hesitated and then nodded. He felt that if he was with Gu Lang, he might not be afraid.

Seeing that Chen Xing agreed, Gu Lang raised the corners of his lips slightly, and there was a bit of inexplicable expression on that handsome face: "In that case, then we have an appointment."

Chen Xing felt that something was wrong with him. Obviously Gu Lang just said a very ordinary sentence, but hearing it in his ears, it gave him the illusion that the two of them were not going out to join in the fun, but were going on a date. Such an idea It made him blush involuntarily, and he quickly found an excuse to leave the study.

Until Chen Xing's back disappeared, Gu Lang looked at the empty plate still on the table, raised his eyebrows, and said with a light smile, "It's really stupid."

Because they had to go out, they finished their breakfast early the next day.Chen Xing, who had nothing to tidy up, and Gu Lang, who was waiting at the door to go back to pick up his books after changing into clean clothes.

When Chen Xing was squatting at the door, playing with the dogtail grass growing by the door, he suddenly noticed someone walking towards him, he raised his head subconsciously, and froze the moment he saw the person coming.

I saw that Gu Lang, who usually dressed casually in the mansion, was wearing a white long gown. His smooth hair was neatly combed up and tied up with a smooth wooden hairpin, exposing his clean forehead. , although there is still a trace of paleness on his face, but the whole person looks like the handsome young man walking from an ancient painting.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing who was squatting on the ground staring at him, stretched out his hand towards him, and said softly, "What are you doing here? Get up, we should go."

Chen Xing looked at the hand with sharp joints in front of him, and suddenly remembered his current image, his face turned red, and he didn't ask Gu Lang to help, so he immediately jumped up from the ground, looked at Gu Lang and said embarrassingly: "I, I didn't do anything, let's go." After finishing speaking, he ran outside.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing who was running away, regretfully withdrew his lost hand, and followed him out of the gate of Gu Mansion.

It wasn't until he walked to the main street that Chen Xing calmed down a little because of the embarrassment. Looking at Gu Lang who was following him leisurely, he suddenly remembered a very embarrassing question, and stopped walking. Living.

Seeing Chen Xing stop, Gu Lang also stopped, looked at Chen Xing suspiciously, his eyes were full of doubts about why he didn't leave suddenly.

Receiving Gu Lang's suspicious gaze, Chen Xing also looked at him with embarrassment, with a bit of embarrassment on his face, and whispered: "I don't know where the bookstore you are going to is."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's blushing face because of embarrassment, restrained the urge to pinch it, and smiled softly: "It's nothing, you're going the right way. Look, it's not far away." It's the bookstore."

Chen Xing's tense body slowly relaxed under Gu Lang's soft comfort. After following the direction Gu Lang pointed and seeing that the store was really not far away from them, his uneasy mood completely disappeared. relaxed.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing, and said softly, "Let's go, the shopkeeper should be waiting there."

Chen Xing nodded and followed Gu Lang towards that side. When they got closer, he realized that the bookstore was more grand than he had imagined.

In a small two-story building, the first floor is where pens, inks, papers and inkstones are sold, and the second floor is where books and scriptures are sold. At this time, there are still many scholars coming and going, and it looks like a thriving scene.

Chen Xing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that bookstores in this era could be so lively.In his impression, it is not suitable for ancient students to study because the cost of studying is so high that ordinary people simply cannot afford it.Since not everyone can afford it, naturally not so many people will be able to buy it, but I don't know why there are so many people in this bookstore.

With such questions in mind, Chen Xing followed Gu Lang into the bookstore.

As soon as Chen Xing and the others entered the door, Xiao Er, who was still introducing paper to scholars, immediately came over when he saw them, and said courteously to Gu Lang, "Young Master Gu."

Gu Lang nodded as a response.

The little one was about to say something more, but after seeing Chen Xing looking around behind Gu Lang, who seemed to be very interested in everything here, the little two swallowed back what he was going to say, looked at them and continued: " The shopkeeper is waiting for the young master on the second floor."

"Thank you." Gu Lang thanked Xiaoer, and walked up with curious Chen Xing.

The Xiao Er looked at the backs of the two walking away hand in hand, and muttered: "This is the brother Xiao Jiu talked about?"

Chen Xing originally thought that the layout of the first floor was beyond his expectations. Who knew that the second floor was an eye-opener for him. The layout here was almost the same as a modern bookstore except that the shelves were all made of wood.

They saw the shopkeeper standing at the counter on the second floor at a glance. The shopkeeper was about 40 years old and dressed as a scholar. After seeing Gu Lang, he immediately showed a happy expression on his face, and then saw Gu Lang following behind him. Looking at Chen Xingshi, the smile on his face froze for a moment, but he quickly adjusted his state again, looked at Gu Lang and asked politely: "Who is this?"

Gu Lang looked in the direction pointed by the shopkeeper, and when he saw Chen Xing who was slightly uncomfortable, he slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and said very naturally: "This is my husband."

As soon as Gu Lang's words came out, the other two present were stunned.Especially the shopkeeper, as if he hadn't expected Gu Lang to answer like this at all, looking at Gu Lang who couldn't recover for a long time, staring at Chen Xing with unconcealable shock.

Seeing his uncontrollable shocked expression, Gu Lang handed over the box that he had been carrying all the time, and said in a deep voice, "This is the script I wrote these days."

Gu Lang's words immediately reminded the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper raised his eyes and met Lang's cold eyes, he shivered, took the box quickly, and said in a hurry: "Wait for me, I'll go get your reward come over."

Gu Lang smiled, and the aura around him became gentle again.

The shopkeeper was very fast. After taking the box to the counter, he immediately took out another box of similar size from the counter and handed it to Gu Lang, "This is the manuscript fee and the paper you need."

"Thank you."

Seeing Gu Lang take the box, the shopkeeper looked at him and moved his lips, obviously wanting to ask something, but when he saw Gu Lang looking at Chen Xing's gentle eyes, he still didn't say anything.

When the two left the bookstore under the watchful eyes of the shopkeeper, Chen Xing whispered to Gu Lang next to him: "I think the shopkeeper and Xiaoer look at me a little weirdly, although there is no malice, but it always makes me feel Something is not right, it seems to be looking at something particularly strange."

Hearing what Chen Xing said, Gu Lang smiled softly, and said softly, "Maybe they are just curious about what my husband is like."

Chen Xing didn't expect Gu Lang to answer him like this, he raised his head in astonishment, met Gu Lang's gentle eyes looking at him, after a moment of stunned, thinking of what Gu Lang said in the store just now, he muttered with some dissatisfaction: "How could you say that just now?"

Gu Lang looked at him softly, "It's just telling the truth."

Chen Xing's heart beat suddenly, and the heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. He really wanted to ask Gu Lang directly if he had other deep meanings when he said these words, or if he was thinking too much.If Gu Lang was unconscious, then he still hoped that Gu Lang would not be like this in the future.

But before Chen Xing asked, he heard a burst of noise accompanied by various sounds, coming towards them from far and near.
