Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Seeing Gu Yunji, Xu Shuhua's eyes lit up immediately, and he was speechless in surprise: "...you, why did you come? Aren't you going to send the champions back to their ranks?"

Gu Yunji smiled and said: "It has already been delivered, and I just happen to be free now, so I stopped by to have a look."

Xu Shuhua raised his eyebrows, and asked deliberately: "Just passing by? I remember that this is still a street away from your way back to the guild hall."

Gu Yunji straightened his expression, and said seriously: "Actually, no, I came here on purpose, just to see you."

In my impression, Gu Yunji has always been an upright and disciplined gentleman, and he has never said such straightforward words. Xu Shuhua blushed pretty, and murmured, "I... what's so good about me..."

With a light cough, Xu Shuhua changed the topic: "After sending the No. [-] champion to the second place, the drum music honor guard will also send Tanhua back to the residence. Presumably your elder brother and the others have waited for a long time, and they are preparing to celebrate you well when you go back. Are you willing to let you out?"

"Probably because I was reluctant, so I didn't go back to the guild hall, but came directly on the way." Gu Yunji smiled softly, with tenderness in his eyes, "I gave the leading palace servant a little reward, and asked him to take the The drum music honor guard went back first, if it wasn't for that, how could I get away today?"

It was only then that Xu Shuhua realized that Gu Yunji had just taken off his black hat, and he didn't even have time to change his clothes.Wearing this ostentatious Jinshi uniform, he probably had to choose a secluded path to avoid attracting the attention of passers-by. No wonder he also walked through the side entrance of Xu Mansion today.

Thinking of this, Xu Shuhua's heart became softer, and he said: "You are so busy, in fact, you don't necessarily have to come here today, you can come back tomorrow."

Gu Yunji said: "Tomorrow morning I have to enter the palace to meet with His Majesty, and it will be after noon when I finish my work. The streets were noisy before, and you and I only met once in a hurry. Since I am free now, I will always come to see you Just a few words. And—”

Gu Yunji paused for a moment, as if he was afraid that she would get angry, and his tone was a bit uneasy: "So many people threw sachets and handkerchiefs at me earlier, although I didn't mean anything to them, I was also afraid that Miss Xu would think too much about it. So I come here Miss Xu explained that apart from Miss Xu's handkerchief, I have never accepted any personal belongings from women."

Seeing Gu Yunji's cautious look, Xu Shuhua laughed in his heart, and comforted him: "Actually, you don't need to tell me, I believe you too. After all, it's enough to misunderstand you once. Do you want to come again? You are angry."

She felt uncomfortable, but Gu Yunji had done nothing wrong. It hadn't been long since the two of them quarreled last time. If she got angry with him indiscriminately this time, it would be too unreasonable.

Gu Yunji glanced at the handkerchief in his hand, with hesitation in his eyes: "Then when we were on the street..."

Xu Shuhua was slightly startled when he heard the words, and finally understood, he couldn't help laughing: "Qiu Xiao threw the veil, she was afraid that the veil would not be thrown far, so she put a stone in it."

"Qiu Xiao threw it?" Gu Yunji was afraid that Xu Shuhua would be angry and deliberately contradict him, but he still couldn't believe it completely, so he turned to ask Qiu Xiao for confirmation.

Qiu Xiao shrank back embarrassingly, showing an apologetic smile: "...I threw it, I'm sorry Mr. Gu, I originally wanted to say hello to you, but accidentally hit you, Are you okay?"

Gu Yunji breathed a sigh of relief: "Ah, it's okay. I thought..."

"Do you think I was jealous when I saw other women throwing sachets at you, so I threw stones at you to show my dissatisfaction?"

Xu Shuhua smiled helplessly: "Mr. Gu, do you think I am an unreasonable tigress in your heart?"

"No, no, I didn't mean that." Gu Yunji's eyes widened instantly, and he repeatedly waved his hands to deny, "Miss Xu is gentle, generous, understanding, and knowledgeable in my heart..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Xu Shuhua suddenly realized something, and his little face turned red immediately.

Tigress is usually used to describe someone's wife who is fierce and tough, but she and Gu Yunji are neither husband and wife nor unmarried couple, how can you use such words to describe yourself?However, Gu Yunji hadn't reacted yet, and kept uttering all kinds of pleasant words, so ashamed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

As he was talking, Gu Yunji gradually realized that something was wrong, his voice lowered involuntarily, and he was relatively silent with Xu Shuhua in the awkward and ambiguous atmosphere.

After a while, Gu Yunji finally found a topic, raised the handkerchief a little higher, and asked tentatively: "Then... this square handkerchief, should I return it to Qiu Xiao, or..."

"Ah, give it to me." Xu Shuhua settled down, reached out to take the handkerchief, "Thank you Mr. Gu for sending it back."

Seeing this, Gu Yunji felt relieved.Fortunately, this is Xu Shuhua's handkerchief, not Qiu Xiao's.If not, don't be too embarrassing if you put the handkerchief in your bosom so preciously and carefully, but find out that it is someone else's personal belongings.

The things that should be sent back have been sent back, and the misunderstandings that should be resolved have also been resolved. Xu Shuhua looked at the sky and asked: "The afternoon sun is the most poisonous, Mr. Gu, do you want to come in and sit for a while? Daddy also wants to see you very much." .”

Gu Yunji shook his head: "Calculating the time, the teacher should be taking a nap now, so I won't go in and bother you, and I'll go to the mansion tomorrow for a visit. However, before I leave, I still have something I want to give Miss Xu..."

As he said, Gu Yunji took out a brocade box from his sleeve, and when he was about to open it, he stopped his movements and looked at Qiu Xiao who was standing aside, with an expression of "Why are you still here".

Perhaps it was the effect of those pots of clearing mind and eyesight tea, Qiu Xiao finally felt that she was redundant, and after bowing to Xu Shuhua, she silently avoided a dozen steps away, and turned her back to the two of them.

Only then did Gu Yunji look away in satisfaction, opened the lid of the box, and took out a smoky blue bracelet inside, which looked like a crystal texture, clear and translucent, delicate and elegant.

Xu Shuhua: "This is?"

Gu Yunji smiled gently: "This is a crystal bracelet. I bought it at the Lantern Festival two years ago. It's not worth much, but it also represents my heart. In a few days, April [-] will be your birthday. Here’s wishing you good luck on your birthday in advance.”

Xu Shuhua's beautiful eyes were slightly surprised: "Two years ago? Did you already think about what birthday gift you would give me two years ago?"

Gu Yunji smiled and said: "That's not true. I just saw it when I was shopping at the Lantern Festival. Seeing that the bracelet is plain in color, it should suit you very well, so I bought it and prepared to give it away when I have a chance. I'm worried that I will be too busy on your birthday. I can’t get away, so I’ll give it to you as a birthday present, do you like it?”

Xu Shuhua's eyes sparkled, and he nodded vigorously: "I like it very much, thank you."

Looking at this beautiful and elegant crystal bracelet, Xu Shuhua's heart and eyes were filled with joy, and he couldn't put it down.
