Su Mingyu was stunned for a moment, then realized that Gu Ruobai had heard all the things she had said about teasing Shi Jian just now.
Su Mingyu quickly forced a smile: "It was all taught to me by Xia Mian."
"Xia Mian?" Gu Ruobai clearly didn't believe it.
Su Mingyu blinked her big, beautiful eyes and nodded seriously: "Really. Didn't Xia Mian get bullied by Shi Minglong before? So she knows a lot about these things."
"Why would Xia Mian tell you about these bedroom matters out of the blue?" Gu Ruobai immediately caught the loophole in Su Mingyu's words.
Su Mingyu awkwardly scratched her nose. She was extremely regretful in her heart.
It was all over. She had brought some things about S.M. from the 21st century here, and Gu Ruobai had heard every single detail.
For the time being, all she could do was to deny it firmly!
Su Mingyu's eyes darted around: "Th - that..."
Looking up, she saw Gu Ruobai's cold jaw. Thoughts welled up in Su Mingyu's mind. Suddenly, she buried her head in Gu Ruobai's arms and said in a coquettish tone: "I... I just wanted to know something about... this kind of thing..."
As she said this, Su Mingyu seemed very embarrassed and buried her head even lower: "Can you not be so inquisitive!"
Towards the end, there was even a hint of annoyance in Su Mingyu's voice.
At first, Gu Ruobai didn't quite understand, but when he saw that the tips of Su Mingyu's ears were red, he immediately understood what was going on.
Even with Gu Ruobai's excellent self - control, he couldn't help but cough dryly.
The atmosphere suddenly became a bit awkward. Su Mingyu didn't say a word, just waiting to see how Gu Ruobai would react.
After waiting for a long time, Su Mingyu finally received a hug.
The tight and restrictive force seemed to be trying to knead her into his body.
Su Mingyu carefully hugged Gu Ruobai back and let out a long sigh of relief in her heart. She had finally managed to cover up this matter.
The two lingered for a while before walking out of the alley.
They hadn't walked far when they saw several hooligans surrounding someone, seemingly trying to extort silver from him.
Normally, Su Mingyu and Gu Ruobai wouldn't have bothered to intervene, but when they passed by that person, Su Mingyu keenly saw the face of the person surrounded in the middle and couldn't help but be stunned.
Gu Ruobai turned to look at Su Mingyu: "What's wrong?"
Su Mingyu pointed in the direction of the surrounded person: "It's Leng Ziyue."
He had really come.
Su Mingyu looked up at Gu Ruobai: "Should we go up and help?"
Taking a look at the situation over there, Gu Ruobai raised his eyebrows: "I don't think it's necessary."
Just as Su Mingyu was about to ask what was going on, she saw all those who had been so arrogant just now covering their faces, looking extremely painful.
Seeing those people scatter in a rush, Su Mingyu and Gu Ruobai walked up to Leng Ziyue: "Young Master Leng, you've finally come out."
Leng Ziyue glanced at Gu Ruobai, who was wearing a mask: "You've recovered quite well."
Gu Ruobai nodded slightly at him: "Come to the mansion."
Leng Ziyue didn't refuse.
Gu Ruobai's mansion was not as magnificent as other royal mansions. The whole mansion was clean and tidy, but there wasn't much popularity, just like the impression Gu Ruobai gave to others.
Seeing Su Mingyu smoothly instructing Zhizhu to pour water for everyone, Leng Ziyue raised his eyebrows: "Although you two haven't gotten married yet, girl, you already have the aura of a mistress of the house."
Su Mingyu knew he was teasing her and just scratched her nose: "Since Young Master Leng has come to the capital, have you made up your mind?"
Leng Ziyue squinted his eyes: "I came here just because I thought your words were right. I want to know why she treated me like that."
"Since Young Master Leng has just come to the capital, I'm afraid you don't have a place to stay?" Seeing that he had finally thought it through, Su Mingyu smiled: "How about staying in the Ruixian Prince's Mansion?"
Leng Ziyue nodded: "I came here just for this matter. I just didn't expect that I would encounter such a thing before I even reached the Ruixian Prince's Mansion."
Su Mingyu raised her eyebrows: "Mu Yi, take Young Master Leng to his wing room and let him rest. We'll talk about other things after he's rested."
Leng Ziyue didn't refuse either. He greeted Gu Ruobai and then followed Mu Yi out.
Watching Leng Ziyue's departing back, Su Mingyu pouted. There were many questions she wanted to ask deep in her heart, but since Leng Ziyue had just arrived in the capital, it wasn't appropriate for Su Mingyu to press him for answers.
"You want to ask who he knows in the palace?" Gu Ruobai immediately saw Su Mingyu's restlessness.
Caught red - handed, Su Mingyu simply nodded: "I still haven't found out who the person who wanted to kill me is, so I'm a bit uneasy."
Gu Ruobai reached out and ruffled Su Mingyu's hair: "It's okay. I'll protect you."
Su Mingyu nodded. Although she said she knew it, she was still a bit worried in her heart.
That person had even dared to poison during the autumn hunting, which showed that this person had great influence.
Actually, saying that they were letting Leng Ziyue rest was more like giving him some time to adjust.
During dinner, Leng Ziyue appeared at the dinner table.
Su Mingyu quickly invited him to come and have dinner.
While eating, Leng Ziyue suddenly said: "I'm going to enter the palace."
Su Mingyu was stunned. Before she could say anything, Gu Ruobai nodded: "Okay."
"But it can't be known by others." Leng Ziyue's expression was very serious.
Gu Ruobai didn't waste any words: "Alright."
Seeing that the two had settled the matter so quickly, Su Mingyu raised her eyebrows suspiciously and asked: "Can I be curious... why do you want to enter the palace?"
"Actually, I used to be a wandering doctor." Leng Ziyue lowered his eyes and looked at the bowl in front of him. His expression was a bit ugly: "Later, by accident, I saved her. She started to pester me. By the time I realized it, I already cared about her a lot. But... it was only then that I found out that she was someone from the palace."
At this point, Leng Ziyue didn't say any more. But looking at his gloomy face, Su Mingyu thought it must be a very sad past.
Seeing that he wasn't ready to talk about it, Su Mingyu didn't press further. She picked up her wine cup: "Since you've come here to solve this matter, don't think so much. Just settle this matter properly and then start a new life."
Saying this, Su Mingyu raised her wine cup: "Come on, let's have a drink."
Leng Ziyue didn't refuse either. The two raised their cups and drank together, and the conversation started flowing.
"You've been back for so many days. I guess you've already found out who the poisoner is, right?"
Gu Ruobai nodded: "But since the person behind this is quite tricky, we can't deal with him for the time being."
