Also, many thanks to everyone who bought me coffee (*???*)
She had thought about this question more than once. Was her transmigration theology or science? Did her soul cross over worlds, or did her small medicine chest from advanced civilization tear through time and space and bring her brain waves along to this place?
Gu Chengfeng observed her expression and found that she was really confused. He inwardly wondered that there were still people who were clueless as to how they got here. Could she have been knocked unconscious and was abandoned here?
Gu Chengfeng was at a loss for words all of a sudden.
Seeing Gu Jiao lying on the grass, staring at the stars without glancing sideways, he couldn't help muttering, "Is it that beautiful?"
"What about you?" Gu Jiao continued to gaze at the starry sky and asked leisurely.
Gu Chengfeng slightly paused, "What about me?"
Gu Jiao slowly expelled a breath, "Why did you become a petty thief?"
"I’m not a petty thief! I’m a great thief! The number one thief in the capital!" Gu Chengfeng directly blew his top!
Petty thief, petty thief, what an unpleasant term to hear!
Gu Jiao said with a pout, "Well… Aren’t you stealing just the same?"
Gu Chengfeng:“…”
Surprisingly, he couldn’t refute that.
He grabbed a broken piece of tile, threw it hard on the surface of the water, and it skipped nine times directly.
He raised an eyebrow with satisfaction, but when he turned to look at her, he saw that Gu Jiao had been looking up at the starry sky all this time and failed to witness his awesomeness. His smugness instantly faded away.
"I am the second child." He said all of a sudden, then also gazed up at the starry sky. "There is an outstanding older brother above me, whom everyone has had high expectations of since childhood, while there is me who just needed to do things casually. Anyway, I don't have to worry about food and clothing when I grow up, and I probably won’t be able to spend my share of the family property in my whole life."
As he said this, there was a bit of loneliness within his eyes.
"What's wrong with that?" Gu Jiao asked.
Gu Chengfeng smiled bitterly. Yeah, what was wrong with that? How many people dreamt of being a dandy young master in the capital, with no knowledge or skills and nothing to carry on their shoulder?
But he was just unwilling.
He also wanted his grandfather to treat him harshly for once!
But whenever he and his eldest brother did something wrong at the same time, their grandfather would always punish his eldest brother alone, as if he didn’t matter at all.
He also tried to get up early to train with his eldest brother but occasionally, he would come late. Even so, his grandfather never got angry with him once because of it. On rainy days, his grandmother wouldn't even let him train, saying, ‘Why should Grandma's sweet grandson go through such hardship?’
"Can you understand the feeling of others never expecting anything from you? I live like a loser... "
Gu Chengfeng’s mood turned gloomy as he spoke.
However, when he turned his head, he found that the little girl who was supposed to be lying beside him as a listener was gone!
When he looked around, he saw that Gu Jiao had gone to the side of the horse and was rummaging through the small cloth bag hanging on the saddle.
"I'm so thirsty." She found a water bag, pulled out the cork, and gulped down two mouthfuls, "Oh, why is it wine?"
Gu Chengfeng wanted to remind her, but who told her to move so fast? Whatever, it wasn’t a strong wine anyway, it was the pear blossom wine brewed by Thousand Sounds Pavilion and it couldn’t get one drunk.
As soon as he thought of this, Gu Jiao's eyes rolled backwards and she collapsed to the ground, drunk dead!
Gu Chengfeng:“…”
It was a dark and windy night.
The street was as silent as the snow, and a certain drunken person refused to ride the horse. Gu Chengfeng had no choice but to carry her all the way from the lake to Bishui Alley.
It was just that, Gu Chengfeng might be someone who knew qinggong, but it was still impossible for him to carry a person on his back for dozens of li with it. No matter how strong his qinggong was, he just couldn’t, okay?
Not to mention the person was particularly restless!
Swish!
Someone stretched out her two hands and grabbed Gu Chengfeng's ears, "I have a little donkey~ but I had never ridden on it~ One day on a whim, I felt like riding it to the market~ I have a little whip on my hand~ I felt so proud of myself~ Go go go!"
Gu Chengfeng's ears were twisted out of shape. Ah ah ah! What a little nutjob this girl is! Somebody take her away!
When Xiao Liulang heard the noise and pulled open the gate to see the two of them, Gu Chengfeng's ears were being pulled by Gu Jiao and his hair had become a bird’s nest!
Gu Chengfeng, who always cared about his image, and Fei Shuang, who even had to make his mask stylish and beautiful, had never been in such a sorry state!
Gu Chengfeng, with a deathly ashen face, looked at Xiao Liulang who suddenly appeared in front of him. Very well, he was seen by others in this kind of appearance.
Back then, Gu Chengfeng had to stay in the medical hall for a long time so Xiao Liulang knew him. He knew that he was the second son of the Marquis Ding’an Estate and Gu Jiao's older brother.
Xiao Liulang’s expression cleared up a bit.
"Have you two been drinking?" He asked.
Gu Chengfeng hurriedly replied, "No. She found herself some water to drink, but drank my pear blossom wine by mistake. She didn't even drink much, just a sip or two. Who knew her capacity for liquor was so poor!"
Xiao Liulang glanced at Gu Jiao who was lying on Gu Chengfeng's back, stretched out his arms and said, "Pass her to me."
Gu Chengfeng looked at Xiao Liulang doubtfully and asked, "Can you do it?"
The corners of Xiao Liulang's mouth twitched and he said without expression, "My hands are not lame."
Gu Chengfeng took a second look at him and saw that he was not on his crutch. He should have come out specially to carry her back inside. Besides, he was well-dressed and sober, and he didn't seem to have been woken up in his sleep, but rather like he had been waiting for this girl.
Gu Chengfeng hesitated before passing Gu Jiao to Xiao Liulang in the end.
Without his crutch, Xiao Liulang had a little difficulty walking, but he made sure to hold Gu Jiao tightly in his arms.
Gu Chengfeng was curious whether he would end up throwing someone down, staring at Xiao Liulang as he entered the courtyard. When he crossed the threshold, Gu Jiao suddenly hugged Xiao Liulang's neck and kissed him on the face!
Gu Chengfeng couldn't wait to poke his eyes!
What was he even waiting to see here exactly? He was just waiting for his eyes to be abused, ah!
Xiao Liulang was actually surprised by the kiss, but he knew that Gu Chengfeng still hadn’t gone far. He walked into the yard like everything was normal, put someone on the bed in the east room, and looked at her with burning eyes, "Do you know who I am?"
Gu Jiao sat cross-legged on the bed, opened his watery eyes and answered, "I know!"
She pretended to be sober, looking like an innocent fawn.
Xiao Liulang couldn't stand it and felt a swelling emotion in his chest. He took a deep breath and asked her in a low voice, "Then who am I?"
Gu Jiao: "Husband."
Xiao Liulang: "Who is your husband?"
Gu Jiao:“Liulang, Xiao Liulang!”
Having said that, she collapsed sprawled on the bed like a porcelain doll and fell asleep
Xiao Liulang looked at her flushed face, long eyelashes, and slightly opened red lips. His throat gulped and he quickly turned his face away.
When he stood up and was about to leave, Gu Jiao suddenly grabbed his sleeve and pulled him down in a daze. He fell down towards her.
He propped up his body in time with his other hand and pressed on top of her.
Her face was very close, and the smell of the pear blossom wine lingered at the tip of his nose.
