Chapter 203: Invite My Cousin into the House

Chapter 203

Gu Ying couldn't stand his scorching gaze and turned her eyes away, saying, "Adu, can I... invite Cousin into the manor now?"

"Now?"

"Mm... and secretly without anyone knowing."

"That's easy enough, but—" He clasped the back of the little girl's neck with his big hand, staring fixedly at her, "Can you tell me why?"

Gu Ying licked her dry lips, not avoiding his gaze, "I said that one day, I would definitely tell you everything about me."

As for how he would choose in the end... that was his business.

Zhao Changdu's lips quirked up slightly and he dropped a dragonfly touch of a kiss on her forehead, "Alright."

He could probably guess what the little girl was going to do. She couldn't do this kind of thing without a certain someone's participation. "Do you want Su He there too?"

Gu Ying was puzzled. "Su He?"

Zhao Changdu said lightly, "Mm. He's the owner of the Fuyun Building."

As soon as Gu Ying heard, she stared in astonishment, eyes wide. "It's him?!"

In the northwest there was a tall building, reaching as high as the floating clouds!

The foremost intelligence organization in the world, gathering the most detailed and formidable information across all of Dong Li!

Whether it was the Dong Li people or the Qiang Tribe, whether it was a prominent household or common folk, as long as it was information that Fuyun Building wanted, there was nothing they couldn't obtain!

Yet the esteemed owner of Fuyun Building was unfathomable and mysterious, never revealing himself in public. How could he be the most inconspicuous Young Master Su Su in the Yong’an Marquis Manor?!

And he was even on such good terms with the Heir Apparent?!

Gu Ying was still immersed in surprise.

Zhao Changdu rubbed the top of the little girl's head. "With him there, we might be able to get some useful information."

Having said that, he set her down and went to the door to call Huai An over.

Not only was the Qilin Army an elite force, but they were also the best secret guards across all of Dong Li.

After giving the order, the man turned back around. He saw that his little girl hadn't eaten a single bite of food. She had run into the study wearing a pair of sopping embroidered shoes. Not long after, she took some paper and a writing brush and came back.

Zhao Changdu didn’t know the little girl behind him actually dared to think this way about him. He only saw her staring blankly at himself.

Like a cat. The purer its gaze, the more alluring it became.

Seeing her like this made his heart irritated.

"A Ying, don't look at me like that..."

"How am I looking at you..."

He chuckled and leaned in next to her ear. His thin lips pressed against her tender earlobe, his voice lowered huskily, "Or I'm afraid I won't be able to restrain myself..."

Gu Ying's face grew hot and her heart chaotic. She swiftly regained her senses and jumped out from his embrace, "You can't. We have to listen to Sister Fish!"

Her waist was still sore right now.

Zhao Changdu's lips turned up and he suppressed that irritation, not forcing her. He simply stood by her side watching her write at the table.

The little girl was beautiful as a flower or the moon. Every frown or smile was a magnificent painting.

Although he didn’t know what she was writing, watching her write and watching her was a harmonious, beautiful scene—just as the ancients said, with zither and pipes played before them, such tranquility was good.

He watched her earnestly for a while.

There was a knock on the door from Huai An outside.

"Master, Young Master Ye and Young Master Su have arrived."

"Good. Have them go to the study."

"Yes."

At this time, Gu Ying had also just finished organizing the timeline of events during the month of the snowstorm. She smiled and hugged the papers to her chest. "Adu, let's go over."

Zhao Changdu's expression was tranquil. He grasped her little hand in his palm. "Mm."

The couple walked to the study hand in hand.

Seeing this, Ye Qingzhi and Su He continuously clicked their tongues.

Zhao Changdu however felt it was nothing out of the ordinary. Completely unperturbed, he pulled the little girl to sit by his side. It was Gu Ying herself who felt her face grow somewhat hot.

Su He lounged lazily against the armrest, smiling mockingly. "Calling us over so late at night, Adu, don't tell me it's to show off your lovey-doveyness? Brothers shouldn't do this kind of thing, you know. Don't you know that Ye Brother and I are still lonely singles? We're not like you two, basking in newlywed warmth, mingled like oil and honey, so clingy not even a crack can separate you. If word got out, wouldn't you lose face? You’re the heir apparent of the prestigious Prince Jing’s manor, Supreme Commander across Dong Li, overseeing tens of thousands of imperial guards!"
