Gu Yunji thought that after so many years, Qian Xun should have let go.But I didn't expect that when the other party saw Xu Shuhua, he would still be the same as before, stammering incoherently and unable to speak clearly. If he wasn't still thinking about it, how could he react like this?

In order to avoid making the situation awkward, Gu Yunji spoke up for Qian Xun at the right time, introduced the purpose of his trip, and explained why the two met and returned to Fucheng together.

After understanding the whole story, Xu Shuhua nodded and said with a smile: "I see. It's getting late. I wonder if Mr. Qian has a place to stay? If necessary, I will ask Yunji to find an inn for you."

Qian Xun blushed and waved his hand: "No, no need... I am on a business trip, so I will just stay in the inn."

Gu Yunji calmly hid his emotions, and twitched the corners of his mouth with a smile: "Although he is on a business trip, Mr. Qian is our husband and wife's friend after all. If he is free, he will come to our house to sit and talk as usual. We haven't had visitors for a long time. The children are extremely lonely, and it’s boring to yell at me every day.”

Xu Shuhua was keenly aware of the hidden meaning behind Gu Yunji's words. He raised his eyes and glanced at him without saying anything.

The more polite and generous Gu Yunji and his wife were, the more ashamed Qian Xun became: "...I appreciate your kindness, but I have to go to another state capital in the next two days, and I won't be able to stay long in Xuzhou City. Time is tight. Let’s get together again in the future…if we have a chance.”

After saying that, Qian Xun said goodbye to the two of them on the pretext that he had something to do.

In any case, Xu Shuhua has now become someone else's wife. Due to emotions and reasons, Qian Xun should not have any unnecessary thoughts about her.

In fact, Qian Xun has not really forgotten Xu Shuhua. When he learned that she was going to marry Gu Yunji, Qian Xun warned himself to abide by the rules and etiquette, not to have dirty thoughts, and to devote himself to his career and official duties. .

It’s just that young love cannot be eliminated in a short time. Five or six years later, Qian Xun’s obsession with Xu Shuhua finally faded away. Now that we see each other again, although it brings back some of the old concerns, it is just the right time for this moment. The one-way love that ended without a problem came to an end.

If she is doing well, he can rest assured and let go of her completely.

In the evening, after putting Gu Zhaoxi to sleep, Gu Yunji returned to the main room and washed himself silently without saying a word.

Xu Shuhua noticed his emotions and walked over from behind: "Why do you talk so little today?"

Gu Yunji still turned his back to her: "I never talk much."

"Really?" Xu Shuhua smiled, walked to the front and looked at him, "Why do you feel a little unhappy?"

Gu Yunji looked away from her: "You feel wrong, I'm not unhappy."

"Still pretending." Xu Shuhua looked amused and gently turned his head to face her, "When I met Qian Xun in the evening, you kept saying 'our husband and wife' and 'children', as if declaring sovereignty. What if I don’t know?”

"You're unhappy when Qian Xun comes today, aren't you?"

Gu Yunji said with a sullen face: "I'm not." He wasn't unhappy because of Qian Xunlai, it was just a ridiculous farce a few years ago. He was not a jealous husband who was always obsessed with letting go.What really made him unhappy was Qian Xun's reaction and performance when he saw Xu Shuhua later.

His eyes were evasive, he didn't dare to look directly, and he was hesitant to speak... As soon as he saw it, he was still thinking about it.

Gu Yunji knew that Qian Xun was a gentleman with a shy personality and would not miss other people's wives behind their backs.But when he thought that he had admired Xu Shuhua for so many years and still hadn't completely stopped thinking about her, Gu Yunji couldn't be happy.

However, Gu Yunji then thought about it and realized that Xu Shuhua was not at fault in this matter. It was his fault that he was jealous, but he should not put a cold face on Xu Shuhua, so he softened his tone and said:
"I'm really not unhappy. Even if I'm jealous, I should find a reasonable partner, right? Qian Xun has unrequited love from the beginning to the end. He doesn't talk to you as much as the two of us talk in a day. What do I deserve? Jealous?"

Xu Shuhua raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "Really? Then how do I remember that someone had a quarrel with me about this back then?"

Gu Yunji choked up and defended: "...that was back then. Now after so many years, Xi'er has become a soy saucer. Do I care? I'm not that petty. Besides, it wasn't just about this matter that you and I quarreled. , isn’t there still someone trying to catch a son-in-law? In the end, it’s all a misunderstanding.”

Speaking of this, Gu Yunji suddenly felt emboldened: "Just like now, I often deal with Fan Li, and I even opened Spicy Food with him. Are you ever jealous?"

Xu Shuhua didn't buy it: "This is different. You were forced to catch your son-in-law under the list, and you didn't even see Miss Fan's face. Besides, it is Fan Li who is doing business with you now, not Miss Fan. I What’s there to be jealous of?”

"Qian Xun is different. Although I have no impression of him, he did admire me. Otherwise, he would not have let his father come to propose marriage."

Gu Yunji didn't want to put pressure on Xu Shuhua, so he tried to act relaxed to show that he was not jealous.Xu Shuhua, on the other hand, seemed to deliberately irritate him, going more and more overboard: "If you really want to talk about it, the Qian family and my family are quite similar. Qian Shangshu and my father have known each other for many years and know each other well."

"If I had stayed in the capital when I was young and hadn't gone to Luxi Academy with my father, maybe he would have married me when I was of marriageable age..."

clang-

Gu Yunji stood in front of the basin to wash up. He was so aroused by Xu Shuhua's words that he turned the jar of jealousy over and over again. He unconsciously pressed the edge of the copper basin with his hand, pressing it tighter and tighter. He lost his strength without paying attention, and the copper basin fell from the shelf. , water spilled all over the floor.

Xu Shuhua raised his head immediately when he heard the sound, and Gu Yunji happened to see her reaction. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Gu Yunji was the first to be defeated and said in frustration: "Okay, I am indeed a little unhappy."

"Qian Xun met you so many years before me. I have never seen you when you were a child, but he has. Originally, I was not unhappy today, but as soon as I saw his reaction when he saw you, I knew that he was still I haven’t completely forgotten you, so I’m a little awkward.”

As Xu Shuhua said, Qian Xun and Fan Li are different. If she and Gu Yunji had not met and Gu Yunji had not become Xu Chengyu's disciple, he would definitely not marry Fan Li's daughter, but that is not necessarily true for Xu Shuhua.

The Qian family and the Xu family have the same family status. Qian Xun is also a Jinshi. He is in his early twenties and is very talented. If Gu Yunji hadn't been there, Xu Chengyu might have chosen him as his son-in-law.

However, without if, Gu Yunji appeared, and Qian Xun's feelings for Xu Shuhua were destined to not be responded to.To put it bluntly, Qian Xun had an unrequited love for Xu Shuhua, and he and Gu Yunji were not even love rivals.

Gu Yunji didn't care how Qian Xun and Xu Shuhua got along in the past. What he cared about was what Qian Xun thought now. It was strange that he felt so good because his wife was thought about by other men all day long.
