After being dressed as the original match of cannon fodder, she was spoiled by a powerful minister

Chapter 424 He Didn't Expect Her Reaction To Be So Big
The room suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere became a little weird.

Gu Mingzhu glanced at Gu Xiao's expression, and seeing that he was silent, she wondered if she was thinking about what Gu Ting said earlier, that the two had an affair?

She puffed her cheeks and couldn't help but said: "Gu Xiao, don't listen to third brother's nonsense. Although I knew you were not my real brother, I only respect you, but I have never thought anything wrong." Words, but the heart is actually a little empty.

Gu Ting looked at her in surprise, "You already knew that Gu Xiao was not a child of the Gu family?"

"Yeah." Gu Mingzhu nodded guiltily.

Gu Xiao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Mingzhu, with a half-smile, "Have you heard the saying that there is no silver 300 taels here?"

Gu Mingzhu was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

On the other hand, Gu Ting, after listening to what Gu Xiao said, seemed to understand something, and said with a smile: "Mingzhu, you really only respect Gu Xiao, have you not thought about it? But why do I think your explanation, so Like unnecessary?
I seemed to say that the two of you had an affair, but I didn't say that you were interested in him. "

Gu Mingzhu choked, seeing the two of them staring at her, she bit her fingers nervously.

"Well...our watermelon has been chilled, I'll go get it and eat it." She hurriedly finished and rushed out first.

The two froze for a moment, and then felt a little helpless.

Gu Ting turned his head and saw the pampering in Gu Xiao's eyes that was too late to take back, paused, couldn't help getting closer, raised his eyebrows and said: "Gu Xiao, you can't really treat that girl..."

Gu Xiao glanced at him, stood up, changed the topic and said: "The previous things are over, don't think about it." After finishing speaking, he also went out.

Gu Ting froze in place.

Gu Xiao meant that the fact that he once wanted to harm him was over.

He paused, feeling suddenly relieved.

Yes, the past is all in the past.

Fortunately, he didn't make a big mistake and woke up in time.

When he came back to his senses, he yelled, "Wait for me, I have to share some of the watermelon..."

The watermelon soaked in well water really tastes better.

Both Gu Xiao and Gu Ting left the sweetest part of the watermelon to Gu Mingzhu.

Gu Mingzhu ate to her heart's content.

"Third brother, is there any fun and delicious place in Yulin Town? Take me there." She said while gnawing on the watermelon.

Gu Xiao glanced at her, this girl could easily call Brother Gu Ting, but not his brother?

She is treating it differently.

Thinking about it, he suddenly reached out and snatched the watermelon she was eating.

Gu Mingzhu maintained the movement of holding the watermelon with both hands, and when she realized it, she quickly put down her hands and said dissatisfiedly, "Why are you grabbing my watermelon?"

"I'll eat all the sweet ones for you. I'll take a bite, okay?" Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows, and under Gu Mingzhu's glaring gaze, he ate the half-eaten watermelon.

Gu Mingzhu: "..."

Responding, she blushed.

That's what she ate...

She stomped her feet, turned and ran shyly.

Gu Ting, who didn't know why, shouted at the back of her running away: "Mingzhu, there are still a lot of watermelons left..."

"I don't want to eat, you can eat." Gu Mingzhu waved his hand and ran away without looking back.

Gu Ting was puzzled, didn't Mingzhu like to eat watermelon the most, why did she only eat a few pieces and run away?

He shook his head, turned around and suddenly saw that Gu Xiao's ears were a little red, but he thought it was because of the hot weather, and didn't think about it elsewhere.

"That girl Mingzhu just ran away? Didn't she ask me where I can find something delicious and fun?"

Gu Xiao didn't hear what he was saying at all, and looked down at the half-eaten watermelon in Gu Mingzhu's hand, wondering if he should throw it away or continue eating?
He did it on purpose just now, just to tease Mingzhu, but he didn't expect Mingzhu's reaction to be so big.

Seeing her react like that, he realized belatedly that his actions just now were very inappropriate.

Mingzhu has grown up, it is no longer the time for him to eat whatever she ate when he was a child.

Gu Mingzhu has already hid in the house at this moment.

I don't know if the weather is too hot, or because of other reasons, her whole face is burned, red and hot.

She walked to the sink, scooped up water and splashed it on her face, but the temperature on her face still didn't drop, it was hotter than yesterday's fever.

After wiping off the water droplets on her face with a cloth towel, she sat down on the chair and stared out the window in a daze.

In fact, when she was a child, Gu Xiao often ate what she had eaten.

Her reaction shouldn't be that big.

She raised her hand to cover her face, feeling that she was too worthless.

Isn't it just her saliva? It's not like Gu Xiao hasn't eaten it before...

But just thinking about it like that makes me feel so ashamed.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the house.

Gu Xiao's voice sounded outside the door.

"Girl, don't you want to play, what are you doing hiding in the house?"

"Oh." Gu Mingzhu replied, and slowly went to open the door.

Gu Xiao leaned against the door, saw her red face, frowned, and stretched out his hand to her forehead, "Why is your face so red, don't you have a fever again?"

"No." Gu Mingzhu tilted her head back to avoid his touch.

Gu Xiao paused, put down his hand, and looked at her carefully.

"What are you looking at me like that for?" Gu Mingzhu averted her gaze, feeling a little guilty.

"It's nothing." Gu Xiao shook his head, "I just feel that seeing you again this time seems to have a lot to do with me."

"Where is it?" Gu Mingzhu quickly denied.

"No?" Gu Xiao crossed his arms and looked at her leisurely.

"Of course not, that's because you are overthinking." Gu Mingzhu looked down at her shoes.

Gu Xiao's eyes fell on her head, "Then why are you willing to call Gu Ting third brother, but you don't call me brother anymore?" He still minds this matter very much.

Obviously he is closer to this girl, but this time, he feels that in her heart, he is not as good as Gu Ting.

This made him feel very unhappy.

Gu Mingzhu was stunned when she heard the words, raised her eyes to look at him, and murmured: "You are not my brother..."

"Could it be Gu Ting?" Gu Xiao said sharply.

Gu Mingzhu choked, "That's different..."

"Admit it, you are treating one person more favorably than another." Gu Xiao accuses bluntly.

Gu Mingzhu was about to say something when Tao'er came over.

"My son, Miss, lunch is ready, please move to the main room to eat." She said respectfully, but from an angle that Gu Xiao couldn't see, she stared at him obsessively, making no secret of her admiration for him. love.

Seeing Gu Mingzhu, it was as if someone had poured cold water on her.

But what she didn't realize was that Gu Xiao's gaze was always on her, without shifting an inch.

Tao'er saw it, and tightened the handkerchief in her hand.

Why is Gu Mingzhu always able to easily get what others expect and cannot ask for?

She obviously already has so much, why did she go to the border to grab her heir?
