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

Chapter 450 Lest She Do Something Outrageous
Gu Mingzhu sat on his lap calmly, ate the food with relish, and commented: "The food served tonight is delicious..."

Gu Xiao: "..."

This girl really treats him as a human chair, doesn't she?
"Can you go down?" he said patiently.

"Are you hungry?" Gu Mingzhu turned to look at him.

Gu Xiao stared at her, nodded, and said hoarsely, "Hungry."

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingzhu generously picked up a chopstick dish and fed it into his mouth, "I can't eat that much, let's eat together."

Gu Xiao was not polite either, he opened his mouth and ate.

When Gu Mingzhu saw him eating, he kept staring at her, and her gaze made her feel flustered inexplicably, as if, like a wolf that had been hungry for a long time, wishing to devour her alive.

She was so frightened that she hurriedly moved to the side, "I see that you are very hungry, you should hurry up and eat."

"Don't move!" Gu Xiao suddenly shouted.

Gu Mingzhu was too frightened to move anymore, and looked at him with a pair of beautiful eyes in astonishment.

Gu Xiao was also extremely embarrassed, buried his handsome face in the crook of her neck, and said in a hoarse voice: "Who made you move around..."

Gu Mingzhu didn't dare to move again, her whole body was as stiff as a rock, but her little face was incredibly red.

She is holding the rice bowl, neither eating nor not eating.

When she was in a dilemma, Gu Xiao suddenly raised his hand to move her away, and then ran out in embarrassment.

Gu Mingzhu heaved a sigh of relief, and took a big bite of the food, trying to suppress the panic in her heart.

Just after eating, Guo Tingyu came over.

Seeing the empty bowl she put on the table, he asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Yeah." Gu Mingzhu nodded.

Guo Tingyu caught a glimpse of her flushed face and paused, "Why is your face so red, is it very hot?"

"Yeah, the weather is too stuffy." Gu Mingzhu fanned the wind uncomfortably.

Guo Tingyu sat down on the stool in front of the bed, "I heard from Gu Xiao that your legs are weak and you can't walk, are you feeling better now?"

Mentioning this, Gu Mingzhu was very embarrassed.

Wasn't she kissed by Gu Xiao because her legs were weak?
But she didn't dare to say such things, so she nodded, "It's much better."

Guo Tingyu felt relieved, "That's good. By the way, have you packed your things? We have to go back to the capital tomorrow morning."

Gu Mingzhu really didn't want to go back to the capital, but Gu Xiao was right, it was not good for her to live here, so she nodded, "Well, I don't have anything to pack."

"Then go to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow." Guo Tingyu got up and said.

"Okay." Gu Mingzhu replied.

Thinking of something, Guo Tingyu paused when he walked out, and suddenly turned around and said: "Lock the door at night."

Although Gu Mingzhu felt that what he said was a bit strange, she still agreed, "Got it."

Guo Tingyu was actually not at ease.

Because during dinner, the corner of Gu Xiao's mouth was broken, which made him faintly feel that something might have happened between the two of them.

But no matter how worried he is, it will never be easy to stay here.

He thought for a while, then turned around and walked back to the bed, and said to Gu Mingzhu, "Cousin..."

"Ah?" Looking at her cousin who had gone and returned, Gu Mingzhu was obviously a little puzzled, "What's the matter, do you have something to tell me?"

Guo Tingyu hesitated for a while, and decided to tell her what the elder meant, lest she do anything out of line.

Thinking about it, he said softly: "Actually, I came to pick you up this time, and there is another matter. The elders in the family intend to let me marry you."

"What?" Gu Mingzhu looked at him in surprise, her heart sank.

In fact, she believed what he said, because her mother always mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally.

"That's what my aunt meant, and my uncle also knew about it and didn't object." Guo Tingyu continued.

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingzhu said anxiously: "But cousin, I, I don't want to marry you..."

After finishing speaking, seeing that Guo Tingyu looked a little hurt, she hurriedly added, "I mean, we are not suitable, you should marry a wife who is more suitable for you."

Guo Tingyu's expression softened slightly when he heard the words, and his tone was gentle, "How do you know that we are not suitable?"

"In short, we are just not suitable." Gu Mingzhu frowned.

"Then why do I think we're a good fit?" Guo Tingyu said, rubbing her head with his hand, and said seriously, "Mingzhu, actually, I've already..."

"Cousin, it's getting late, go back and rest quickly, don't you have to hurry tomorrow?" At this time, after taking a bath, Gu Xiao, who was covered in steam, came in and interrupted him.

Guo Tingyu paused, then turned to look at Gu Xiao, "Isn't my cousin going to the barracks tomorrow morning? It's so late, why don't you go to bed?"

"Mingzhu is going back to the capital tomorrow, so I should come and say goodbye to her." Gu Xiao sighed.

The corners of Guo Tingyu's lips moved, but he couldn't refute.

As brothers and sisters, the two should bid farewell.

"Cousin, go back to sleep first, and get up early tomorrow." Gu Mingzhu said.

Guo Tingyu had no choice but to go out after nodding his head.

As soon as he left, Gu Mingzhu quickly ran to close the door, and then jumped onto the bed.

Looking back, seeing Gu Xiao sitting there with a dignified expression, he suddenly said in surprise: "What's wrong with you?"

Gu Xiao raised his eyes, looked at her delicate and beautiful face, paused, did not answer, but asked: "What did Guo Tingyu tell you just now?"

Gu Mingzhu glanced at him guilty, "It's nothing."

The corner of Gu Xiao's lips curled up, but he didn't poke her, but suddenly reached out and pushed her down on the quilt.

Gu Mingzhu's face burned, she blinked her beautiful eyes, and said in a daze, "What... are you going to do?"

"Of course it's my mark." Gu Xiao caressed her face with his slender fingers, and said casually.

Gu Mingzhu was stunned, "What do you mean?"

Gu Xiao didn't speak, but untied her belt.

Gu Mingzhu blushed, wanting to stop, but also looking forward to it.

It was extremely contradictory for a while.

And she soon knew what the imprint he was talking about was.

……

Early the next morning, after Gu Mingzhu bid farewell to Gu Xiao, he got into the carriage and returned to the capital.

During this period, Guo Tingyu's attitude became very cold.

But Gu Mingzhu heaved a sigh of relief.

Ever since her cousin made it clear that he wanted to marry her, she felt the pressure. She felt more at ease when he distanced herself so much.

However, what she didn't know was that before she got into the carriage, Guo Tingyu saw the red mark on her neck that Gu Xiao deliberately left.

It was already August when she returned to the capital.

After visiting her parents first, she went to the prime minister's mansion.

When she saw Su Wan, her jaw dropped in surprise when she saw her swollen belly.

"Wan Wan, I haven't seen you for several months, why have you become so fat, your belly is too big..."

Su Wan couldn't help laughing.

Fu Zhenzhen even burst out laughing directly.

"Mingzhu, it's not that my sister-in-law has become fatter. She's pregnant. It's been five months now. Of course her belly is getting bigger."

　Happy weekend, okay~
