Fairy, please don't do this!

She couldn't believe it was true!

Even though she had already been reborn, she was still so far ahead of Mu Yiren.

She and Gu Jinzhao's relationship had clearly grown closer, and all that was left was to unveil the final secret before they could be together.

If the two of them really signed the marriage certificate, then what about everything she did before?

Is it just a joke?

Lin Qingci bit her lip tightly with her pearly teeth, and a trickle of blood had already seeped out.

But she forced herself to stay calm, slowly took the marriage certificate, and opened it with trembling hands.

But the next moment, he laughed.

There was not a trace of sadness or despair in that smile; instead, it was filled with breathtaking beauty.

Lin Qingci supported herself against his chest, slightly straightening her back: "Senior brother really did lie to me!"

Gu Jinchao frowned, instantly realizing something was wrong, and quickly snatched the marriage certificate and opened it.

All that met the eye was a blank space.

His eyes widened suddenly!

What's inside?

Or are there his and Mu Yiren's fingerprints on them?

Where did they all go?

Is this some kind of ghost?

Wait... a ghost?

Gu Jinzhao was completely numb.

He never expected that, in order to make tonight's grand spectacle happen, the ghost bride would actually use the power of "ugliness" to cover up the contents of the marriage certificate.

Lin Qingci gazed at him with affectionate eyes, leaning down and saying, "I know that you have feelings for Mu Yiren, Senior Brother."

"But I can also sense that my senior brother has feelings for me too."

"If that's the case, why won't you give me this opportunity, senior brother?"

Gu Jinzhao's expression was somewhat complicated: "Junior sister, listen to me... hmm?"

Before he finished speaking, his eyes widened.

Because that slender and graceful figure had slowly sat down...

Chapter 92, The Celadon Flower Blooms, Aunt Ruo Sneaks a Glimpse (3K)

The night was as dark as ink, and the candlelight inside the room flickered, casting two overlapping silhouettes.

"Senior brother~"

"Can we give celadon a chance?"

Lin Qingci gently bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, her brows trembling slightly as she tried to conceal a hint of pain.

Why would you do this?

Gu Jinzhao met her gaze, his expression somewhat complicated.

How similar the scene before my eyes is to the image of being stabbed in my past life!

At that time, Lin Qingci's eyes were filled with sorrow and resentment.

In this life, that sorrow has transformed into contentment and joy.

Lin Qingci gazed intently at the person before her: "Because I can no longer live without my senior brother!"

Gu Jinzhao sighed: "Even so, you don't need to sacrifice yourself to help me harmonize my yang energy..."

"But I'm afraid my senior brother will be taken away by Mu Yiren."

Lin Qingci looked dazed, a blush spreading from her cheeks to her ears, turning her beautiful and flawless face into the color of peach petals in March.

Her skin was as white as snow, and the contrast between the red and white colors created a magnificent effect, shining brightly in the dim candlelight.

A faint fragrance lingered around his nose, and Gu Jinzhao's gaze involuntarily fell on Lin Qingci's slightly open collar.

Beneath her delicate collarbone, the strapless bodice embroidered with lotus flowers and carp was slightly pushed up, and a few strands of hair slipped into her shallow cleavage, enticingly inviting exploration.

"Have Senior Brother and Mu Yiren reached this point?"

Lin Qingci noticed the intense gaze, her lips curled slightly, and she leaned closer.

Her cherry lips parted slightly, and her sweet breath brushed against his face. Gu Jinzhao's breathing quickened, and the crimson in his eyes intensified: "Never."

"So am I ahead of her now?"

Lin Qingci's smile brightened, but she turned her head and gently nibbled his earlobe.

Gu Jinzhao felt a tingling, warm sensation wash over him, gradually spreading to his heart: "You really want to surpass her like this."

I dream about it!

Lin Qingci followed his cheek, down his jaw, and slowly kissed his shoulder, leaving her lip print there.

Her expression was as if she were stamping a document, declaring that the man before her already belonged to her.

Provoked like this, Gu Jinchao became increasingly restless and his breath was scalding hot.

Noticing his unusual behavior, Lin Qingci raised her head slightly, took his hand, and placed it on her pert buttocks.

"Qingci is entirely yours~ Senior brother, you don't need to hold back too much!"

What are you doing?

Gu Jinzhao's heart skipped a beat when he felt that soft yet bouncy texture.

"I just wanted to let my senior brother know how Qingci feels about you."

Lin Qingci seemed to enjoy this intimate moment, and her moist lips kissed the corner of his lips again.

The scene before my eyes felt like a return to the last moments of my past life.

She and her senior brother went to the Yellow Springs together in such an intimate manner.

I wonder what kind of expression Mu Yiren will have when she returns and discovers this scene.

Is this a declaration of affection, or just flirting with me?

Gu Jinchao raised an eyebrow slightly.

If he weren't currently being scorched by the True Yang Fire, his body stiff and extremely difficult to move, he would definitely have let this girl experience what the Gu family's rules were like.

"Senior brother, could you tell me..."

Lin Qingci didn't care, and simply slowly sat up.

For some reason, the slightly disheveled black hair on her forehead began to sway with the flickering candlelight.

Gu Jinzhao's body tensed slightly, and his breathing became increasingly erratic: "What do you want to tell you?"

Lin Qingci tilted her head slightly, her eyes shimmering with a captivating light, as if they were about to overflow with tears: "Do you... like me?"

Gu Jinzhao didn't want to answer, but when he met her sorrowful eyes and remembered the debt he owed her in the harem setting, his heart softened: "I haven't fallen in love yet."

Lin Qingci pursed her lips, her usually gentle voice suddenly becoming soft and sweet, seemingly containing a hint of allure: "Then... to what extent has it reached?"

Gu Jinzhao sighed: "Beyond goodwill, there's a hint of liking!"

He felt that if things continued like this, even if he was on his sixth playthrough, he would eventually be conquered by Lin Qingci, this tormenting little devil.

Hearing this, Lin Qingci felt as if she were immersed in a honey pot, so sweet that she was somewhat greedy: "So, we're not just ordinary senior and junior siblings, but senior and junior siblings with romantic feelings for each other?"

Gu Jinzhao gave a vague answer: "I guess so!"

Lin Qingci's slender waist swayed gently like a willow in the breeze: "Then compared to Mu Yiren, who was my senior brother's childhood sweetheart... isn't that even closer?"

Why insist on comparing?

"I'm very competitive...didn't my senior brother just say that?"

"But we don't have to compare everything, do we?"

"It's only about the relationship with my senior brother, nothing else..."

Gu Jinzhao: "..."

"If you want women's undergarments, Senior Brother, I can give you Qingci's."

"Whether it's undergarments or stockings, either is fine~"

Lin Qingci could tell that he didn't want to continue the topic, so she didn't press the issue and simply smiled.

She is now far ahead of Mu Yiren.

If she puts in a little more effort in the future, her senior brother's slight liking for her will gradually grow stronger and eventually turn into love.

Where is Mu Yiren?

Given her cold and aloof personality, the most she could do was hold hands and hug Gu Jinzhao.

Even if we were closer, even if we had kissed, it wouldn't compare to the intimacy we share!

Gu Jinzhao had no idea what she was thinking, and was only stunned: "Why would I want your underwear?"

Although Mu Yiren gave him an undergarment and two pairs of stockings, he really didn't have that kind of fetish.

"Didn't Senior Brother take Mu Yiren's personal clothing back at the hot spring?

"Then she stuffed the stockings she had worn into your clothes."

Lin Qingci's long, narrow eyelashes trembled slightly, and her breathing became increasingly disordered.

The slender hand that was originally resting on Gu Jinzhao's chest involuntarily grasped his hand, the delicate fingers squeezing into the gap and tightly interlocking.

Fingertips touching, skin to skin, they can feel each other's temperature, and even their heartbeats are almost synchronized.

She likes this feeling!

Only in this way can she truly feel that her senior brother truly belongs to her.

Gu Jinzhao's lips twitched slightly: "That was a misunderstanding!"

He knew he would be misunderstood!

Previously, when clarifying the matter of "Jade Feet Illustration" in front of Aunt Ruo, I was harmed by Mu Yiren's stockings.

Unexpectedly, it's Lin Qingci's turn now.

"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, if you want it in the future, you don't need to go looking for Mu Yiren, just come and ask me for it."

Lin Qingci's cheeks flushed, and her voice was filled with a strong sense of possessiveness.

As she spoke, she casually picked up a garment embroidered with lotus flowers and carp and stuffed it directly into his arms.

Gu Jinzhao: ? ? ?

Mu Yiren framed him.

But when it came to Lin Qingci, it became something she had to have, even if she didn't want it.

……

The night was as still as water, and all was quiet.

Si Ruoyu sat alone at her desk, flipping through a medical book by candlelight. Although she was wearing a loose-fitting ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), it could not hide her voluptuous and mature figure.

Just as she was about to turn the page, she suddenly heard a faint noise coming from the windowsill.

Looking up, she saw that the calico cat had somehow jumped up and was squatting there, tilting its head and looking at her.

Si Ruoyu reached out and ruffled the fluffy little head: "Why did you suddenly come here?"

"Playing hide-and-seek with Red Bean again?"

The calico cat muttered with a hint of resentment, "Red Bean always steals my food, I'm not going to play with her."

As she was speaking, her round eyes caught sight of the plate of delicate pastries on the table, and her gaze suddenly lit up.

"Now no one is going to take it from you."
