The Epic Revenge Chapter 313: Engagement Ring
Opening the drawer, Gu Qingzhou saw a black flannel jewelry box.
The box is very small, exquisite workmanship, and the delicate black flannel can give off a warm luster.
Gu Qingzhou met once: Si Xingpei's cousin got engaged before. Gu Qingzhou stared at her diamond ring for a while. Si Xingpei misunderstood that she liked it, so he bought it and gave it to her only.
That's the box!
Gu Qingzhou held her breath.
The corners of her lips could not help but slightly raised, the curvature expanded, and her eyes curved into small crescents
She opened the box.
Gu Qingzhou was always apprehensive and anxious about the marriage proposal. She was afraid that Si Xingpei would change his words and ask her to be a concubine again.
It's not impossible, Si Xingpei is evil and never acts according to the rules.
Gu Qingzhou loves him so much.
She didn't hold back when she saw the box.
It's a baguette, big enough to break a finger. Reflecting the warm golden sunlight, the ring is dazzling and radiant.
Gu Qingzhou tried it.
Not too small, not too small, just the size of her ring finger, she could clasp her hand as if it could grab her heart.
"It's for me," she determined.
Bright and slender fingers, wearing a cold and hard diamond ring, were actually soft and firm, blending just right.
"It's beautiful," she thought.
After watching for a while, Gu Qingzhou reluctantly put the diamond ring in the box.
Her heart is as steady as a prescription table. The square platform was stable and strong, like a diamond, giving Gu Qingzhou a place to live.
She locked the drawer.
Lying quietly in this room, Gu Qingzhou looked at the nanmu furniture, and felt more and more like a home.
The house has her clothes and his; there is her breath and his.
Gu Qingzhou thought a lot: she is about to get married, she will be a wife; soon, she will be a mother, maybe more than one child...
Incomparably beautiful in her heart, she was lying leisurely, with all limbs on her back, no gestures - my own home, I can lie down as I want.
During dinner, Si Xingpei came back.
Gu Qingzhou sat gently on the sofa in the living room, with the warm light of the lamp at her hand covering her. She was reading the newspaper with the help of this warm light.
She has a delicate profile, a straight nose, a full forehead, and a slender jaw, as delicate as a porcelain doll.
Black hair tucked behind his ears, poured over his shoulders, and spread all over his body.
"What did you do this afternoon?" Si Xingpei walked over and hugged her.
"I've been sleeping." Gu Qingzhou smiled.
Si Xingpei kissed her lips lightly, and then kissed her hair.
He thinks Gu Qingzhou is in a good mood.
My mind turned slightly, and Si Xingpei immediately understood something and said, "Did you pry my upstairs drawer?"
At this time, Gu Qingzhou showed a little girlish shyness and coughed lightly: "Who told you to lock it up? There is no silver 300 taels here, you just want me to be curious."
Si Xingpei laughed.
"...I want to leave first, and then hold a grand ball when I get there, and invite the rich and famous in the city to get engaged to you in front of everyone." Si Xingpei said, "I'll buy the ring. Yes, you saw that too, do you have any other requirements?"
Gu Qingzhou shook his head.
The black hair is swaying, and there are light ink waves rippling with every movement.
"Do you like the style of the ring?" Si Xingpei asked again.
Gu Qingzhou nodded.
Her eyes were curved, and she couldn't help but smile, revealing a row of neat and white little glutinous rice teeth, like a child, without any shrewdness or charm. When she is really happy, she is like this, soft, naive, like a pure and flawless child, not stained with the dust of the world.
"Are you wearing it?" Si Xingpei asked again.
"I wear it." Gu Qingzhou coughed.
Si Xingpei laughed.
He put his arms around her, kissed her slender earlobe lightly, and whispered in her ear: "It's the most anxious bride I've ever seen. Love me so much, don't you?"
Gu Qingzhou wrapped his arms around his neck.
There is no doubt that he likes him; and what is really happy is that he is willing to give up his ideals and plans for many years, marry her, a powerless woman, and give her an upright identity.
Gu Qingzhou knows that he has sacrificed a lot.
She is happy and grateful.
"Qingzhou!" Si Xingpei put his arms around her thin flowing shoulders and kissed her hair gently, with an indescribable sweetness in his heart.
His whole heart melted.
She relied on him to give Si Xingpei another life - a colorful life, prosperous, beautiful and warm.
His canoe, giving him energy.
"Qingzhou, you are really a well-behaved child." Si Xingpei remembered something, his happy face solidified for a short time, but disappeared without a trace, "No matter what, you must believe me."
Gu Qingzhou was obviously immersed in the happiness that the ring brought her. This strangeness of Si Xingpei and the hints in his words were missed by her.
She leaned against him softly, her mind full of gorgeous dreams, without the slightest secular.
She is getting married, she is going to be a man, a wife, a mother, and start another life!
She thought, she must be able to do very well, to surprise and admire Si Xingpei, she has such ability.
There is no revenge in her life. She will live a warm and happy life, and Si Xingpei will block all the wind and rain for her.
She wrapped her arms around his waist, pressed her chest against him, and handed over all the weakest parts to him.
After dinner, they took Mulan and Mulan for a walk.
Gu Qingzhou also told Si Xingpei that she was planning something recently, which was aimed at her father.
Si Xingpei stroked her hair: "No matter what you do, I will support you, just let me know if you need help."
Gu Qingzhou hummed.
At nine o'clock in the evening, she returned to Gu's mansion.
The depressed Gu Guizhang went out with the fifth concubine.
Gu Qingzhou thought about it, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
"The fifth concubine is still very powerful." Gu Qingzhou thought to herself.
The third aunt Susu is still curious about it.
Seeing Gu Qingzhou's return, the third concubine went upstairs with a late-night snack to chat with her.
She asked about Gu Qingzhou's plan: "You have done a lot of things: the second aunt has passed away, the master has lost money, the yamen is not going well, and there are often troubles at home. The man is gone, and you are crushing the master."
Gu Qingzhou didn't eat supper, but just picked up a glass of boiling water and drank slowly.
She didn't want to tell the third wife about her plans.
The fifth concubine is indeed very capable, and everyone is currently under Gu Qingzhou's control.
"......When the matter is over, I will pay to settle you and let you go." Gu Qingzhou said, "Miss San, if you have the mind to guess what I will do, you might as well plan your future well. ."
The third aunt was too stunned.
"Are you going to leave the family?" The third concubine didn't expect this, she thought she would be widowed with several concubines for the rest of her life.
"Yes, everyone has to leave." Gu Qingzhou said.
The third aunt was stunned. After that, she never thought about guessing Gu Qingzhou's methods, she just planned carefully with Miao'er, what would they do in the future, what would they live on, how would they make a living if Gu Qingzhou didn't give money, and so on.
These are enough for the third aunt to worry too much.
After the fifth concubine successfully took Gu Guizhang out, she came back to ask Gu Qingzhou for credit.
Besides asking for credit, the fifth concubine was also a little unhappy, and questioned Gu Qingzhou like a settlement: "Why did you tell the fortune teller about my past?"
"What?" Gu Qingzhou didn't understand.
Aunt Wu knew she was acting stupid.
Gu Qingzhou knows the details of the fifth concubine, but the fortune teller must not know. If it wasn't for what Gu Qingzhou said, how could fortune-telling be so easy?
"Miss Qingzhou, I hope you can keep your promise to me in mind. In the future, if I can't get out of my body, don't think about it better." Mrs. Wu said.
Gu Qingzhou smiled: "Don't worry, I know it."
The third concubine no longer asked, and the fifth concubine also abide by her duty, so Gu Qingzhou freed up her mind and planned her future.
She has to make serious plans for her future with Si Xingpei.
"When I get to the place, I will go to a few professors to study politics and economics." Gu Qingzhou thought.
Si Xingpei's mind is on the military, but if he wants to have no worries, the politics must be stable and the economy must be prosperous.
Even if Gu Qingzhou doesn't make decisions, he hopes he can understand. Once something happened, Si Xingpei would not take time to come back to handle it.
Everything in the back has Gu Qingzhou.
The next morning, Gu Qingzhou sat in the side hall and played the piano, with all his plans after marriage in his heart, and the sound of the piano could not help but fly briskly.
The living room phone rang.
Gu Qingzhou went to answer the phone, but Simu actually called.
On the phone, Simu's voice was flat and distant: "Let's meet."
He invited her, but his tone was wrong, like finding fault.
Gu Qingzhou pondered: "Is something wrong?"
"Meet and talk." Si Mu said.
"Is it a matter of quitting the marriage?" Gu Qingzhou asked again, "Or is it something else related to our engagement?"
That's all she seems to care about.
"No." Sim said truthfully, but his voice was even more gloomy and low.
Gu Qingzhou frowned: "Then I'm not free."
"You'll be free," said Sim.
When Gu Qingzhou was unhappy and almost wanted to hang up the phone, Simu was there, his voice soft and indifferent: "I want to talk to you about Zhu Shengru."
Gu Qingzhou suddenly changed his face.
She took a deep breath and suppressed her inner emotions, preventing her voice from revealing clues.
The hand holding the phone is slightly whitish.
Gu Qingzhou pursed her lips tightly, and her brows suddenly became cold. In her coldness, there was also a little panic that was hardly noticeable.
"You don't want to talk?" Simu's voice was even colder, even to the point of being cold, "Then let me talk to my dad."
He is threatening her.
"Young Marshal, where can we meet?" Gu Qingzhou held back all his emotions, and his voice was even and steady. It was so suppressed that it sounded stiff.
"Cinema," said Si Mu.
A movie theater?
How to talk in such a messy place?
Gu Qingzhou frowned, thinking that Simu was deliberately looking for trouble, Simu reported to Gu Qingzhou an address and said, "See you at eleven."
After all, he hung up.
Gu Qingzhou's expression never eased.
How did Simu know about Zhu Shengru?
Simu knows it, so do the rest of the military government know it too?
