I want to make progress

Chapter 74 Confession
She chuckled, looking up to meet the man's eyes, looking into the deepest part of his deep pupils.

From the day Tianyi came back to her, she never expected to avoid Gu Changting's eyes. The Duke of Yingguo's Mansion was not something that one could enter whenever they wanted. Even if Tianyi's martial arts skills were very strong, he was still unable to completely avoid the eyes of the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion's secret guards.

So when Tianyi came back, she asked Yuyan to send a letter to Qixian who was beside Gu Changting, informing him of Tianyi's existence. And Meng Xichen had gotten into trouble today, and coincidentally, he had smashed the Hongsheng Restaurant before that. Coupled with what happened before, with Gu Changting's intelligence, he might have suspected her.

"Heh~! What nonsense are you talking about?"

He smiled and placed dense kisses on her bright eyes, his voice intimate and tender, "Even if you doubt it, so what? Can't I help him, my own woman?"

"Meng Xichen has a bad reputation. He is extremely lustful and unscrupulous. Last time you escaped, he has been looking for you all the time. Naturally, I am worried."

"Besides, Meng Xichen lost a leg this time, and the Duke of the Guardian State was furious. The entire Duke of the Guardian State Mansion is now like a mad dog, biting anyone it catches. Although my father and Luo Yi are here, I am still worried that they will take their anger out on you."

He gently stroked her cheek, worry evident in his eyes, "You have a casual personality and don't like being trapped in the backyard, so you often go out. Although you have someone to protect you now, you can't underestimate the Duke of Huguo's Mansion. What if they pick on you?"

"This time, the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion was furious because of Meng Xichen, but they quickly dropped the case and claimed that it was provoked by an enemy. Now the culprit has been caught, but I always feel that this matter is suspicious, so it is better to be careful."

"So don't go out during this period, huh?"

The incident of Meng Xichen caused chaos in the Duke of Huguo's Mansion. The Empress Dowager was furious, and the Prefect of Jingzhao, Lord Wu, was reprimanded and ordered to solve the case within three days.

But later, for some reason, the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion inexplicably withdrew the case and the culprit was caught. It happened suddenly and ended quickly, but he felt that the matter was weird everywhere and wondered if there was any inside story that others didn't know.

He didn't need to worry about his father and Luo Yi, only the one in his arms. Even though he knew that she was not as weak and harmless as she appeared, he couldn't help but worry about her.

Even if he was so busy outside that he didn't have time to eat, he still squeezed out time to come and see her.

"Just saying you miss me is like killing you!"

When Shu Yunfu met the man's eyes, warmth flowed in her eyes, and she gently punched the man's chest with her pink fist. After saying so much, it would be very difficult for him to say something she liked to hear!

The man smiled, held the woman's fist, put it to his mouth and kissed it, just smiling without saying a word.

"Forget it! Since you've performed well, I'll tell you a secret." Shu Yunfu, in a good mood, nestled in his arms.
He raised his chin proudly, "Meng Xichen, I really did this."

"you……"

Gu Changting was shocked and suddenly looked up at the woman in his arms. This girl is really brave!
"But I only did the last step, crippling Meng Xichen's leg. The rest was not done by me. I was just a jackal!"

Shu Yunfu looked at him innocently, "That bastard teased me and smashed my Hongsheng Restaurant. You know I'm not some harmless little white flower."

"you!"

Although I had some guesses in my mind, after all, I was influenced by the idea that men are superior to women, so my guesses were only three-quarters. Now, hearing her admit it with my own ears, I was both surprised and felt it was natural.

When she gradually revealed her true nature in front of him, he knew that she was different from other women, and now it was just verified once again. Her decisiveness and ruthlessness were comparable to those of men!
No! Even men may not have her judgment.

"Did anyone see it?"

He sighed helplessly. What else could he do now that things had come to this? Besides, all his woman could do was clean up the mess.

"Hehe!" She happily hugged the man's neck and kissed the corner of his mouth, "The Duke treats me so well!"

"Don't worry, no one saw what I did. Even Meng Xichen himself thought it was done by the people of Liangyi Sect."

"Don't try to fool me. This was just a fluke. Don't do such a daring and dangerous thing again!"

Pushing the person in his arms away, Gu Changting swept away the gentleness of the warm and soft jade in his arms. His eyes became sharp and he looked at the woman in his arms with disapproval, who seemed a little stunned by his words.

"I shouldn't have allowed your guard to stay by your side. With him around, you are even more reckless and audacious. In a situation like that, you should have stayed away from him. The Protectorate Mansion is not to be trifled with."

"Gu Changting~!"

Shu Yunfu looked at his eyes shining, and couldn't suppress the smile on her face. She liked this man more and more, what should she do? "You will make me unable to leave you anymore."

"You are my woman, and you still want to leave me!"

Meeting her radiant eyes, Gu Changting pinched her chin and kissed her fiercely. This was a punishment for this daring woman!

"Don't! I have something else to tell you!"

As their lips and teeth touched, the temperature in the tent instantly became scorching hot. Feeling that the situation was getting out of control, Shu Yunfu quickly pushed the person away. If he didn't stop, there would be no time to talk.

"Hasn't Meng Xichen been looking for me? I wanted to lead Meng Xichen to a secluded place and teach him a lesson, but I didn't expect something went wrong and someone intercepted me. The person who intercepted me was none other than the Liangyi Sect!"

"Liang Yi Sect! Did you see clearly?"

These three words instantly sobered Gu Changting, who was trapped in the land of gentleness. He no longer had any thoughts about romance. In any case, he had never imagined that the Liangyi Sect was actually involved in this matter.

Nowadays in the court, the three words "Liangyi Sect" are too sensitive.

"I saw the Yin-Yang tattoos on their arms. I had contact with the Yin-Yang sect when I was in Xuancheng, and I accidentally learned that important members of their sect would tattoo the Yin-Yang pattern on the inside of their arms. Although it was just a glimpse, I was sure that it was a Yin-Yang tattoo."

"Besides, those people are very skilled. Although Meng Xichen is just an uneducated and unskilled dandy, he is the third son of the Duke of the Guardian and the Queen Mother's most beloved nephew. The guards around him are naturally very skilled."

At this point, Shu Yunfu laughed sarcastically, "But the guards around Meng Xichen were simply unable to resist those people from the Liangyi Sect. If they hadn't wanted to break up with the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion and didn't want Meng Xichen's life, the Duke of the Guardian's Mansion wouldn't be clamoring to find the murderer today, but would be busy setting up a funeral hall!"
