"You guys wait behind the screen first."
The woman lightly coughed a few more times, then got out of bed wearing only a thin undergarment and lit a candle.
However, after a while, the two maidservants had already walked in quickly with an impatient look on their faces. "Second Miss, has the night been coming to an end yet again?"
"I just can't sleep. You guys should go to sleep first, I'll read some books."
The two maidservants looked at each other, then left in a flurry of curses. They did not forget to say to her, "Second Miss, if there is anything else, we will not enter. How can we come all the way here for two hours a day?"
"Alright." The woman coughed a few more times before the two maidservants closed the door and left.
Qi Lin and Gu Pingyan walked out from behind the screen, and Qi Lin's eyes were filled with heartache. At this moment, the normally arrogant little tyrant was just lying on the bed, allowing his sister to rub her head, "You actually dared to sneak in. If you were discovered by father, it would be another beating."
Gu Liuyan was listening to their chatter by the side, and she felt that it was really warm.
Qi Lin's second sister and one of his siblings, their mother passed away after giving birth to Qi Lin, but he was also the most beloved girl in Qi Ming's life. Qi Ming had allowed Qi Ming to do as he pleased, but because he valued his second daughter more than his daughter, he did not pay attention to his.
Qi Rou and Qi Lin looked similar, their lips were slightly thin, and their faces were extremely ugly.
"This is?" Only then did Qi Rou look at Gu Danyan.
"Just call me Yan'Er." Gu Liuyan took a step forward, allowing Qi Lin to stand to the side. Then, he lifted his hand to feel Qi Rou's pulse, raised his eyebrows, and laughed lightly: "Second Miss is just a little weak, she has been sick for too long, only Yan'Er has something to say to Second Miss."
Qi Rou coughed a few times before gesturing with her hands.
"Rather than being depressed, why not borrow the hands of others and wait until one day, when one becomes famous, are you afraid of not leaving their name? "Besides, Qi Lin just hasn't been enlightened yet, so it's not like he's completely clueless." Gu Danyan looked at her seriously, but he just took out a small bag from his pocket and handed it to her.
Qi Rou was stunned for a moment, but she still took the small bag over, which contained the candied fruits that only the children could eat.
"Many thanks, Lady Yan'Er. It's just that Little Lin is my little brother after all, I naturally know about it." Qi Rou could only smile helplessly, and kept looking at Qi Lin.
Standing up, Gu Tsui Yan Qi signaled with his eyes. Only then did Qi Lin quickly say goodbye to her, saying that he had brought medicine for her at the party tomorrow. Then, he followed Gu Tinyan back the same way he came.
After leaving the courtyard that Qi Rou was in.
Gu Danyan then said softly, "Your sister clearly doesn't have any problems with her body, that was just an act."
"How can I... "Ugh!" Before Qi Lin could cry out, Gu Danyan had already covered his mouth with his hands, "You're the one who's not up to it yet. In this huge Qi Province, only you and your family can trust her, and you're the only one who doesn't know how to learn. If you could take over Misty Rain Pavilion, your sister wouldn't be so depressed."
"What do you mean?" Qi Lin pulled her hand away and whispered.
Your sister, as a woman, was unable to take over Misty Rain Pavilion, and before this, she was set up by someone, so she was discouraged. She wanted to use the matter of feigning sickness to arouse your fighting spirit, but unfortunately, you were still willful and willful, and when she realized that you had no hope of taking over Misty Rain Pavilion, her heart became even more hopeless. Gu Daiyan slapped his head in frustration.
Qi Lin froze on the spot. He had never thought about it before, he just thought that the more unskilled he was, the less likely those siblings would provoke him. He was only concerned with pleasing his sister, but he had never asked her what she wanted.
"In this world, men are not the only ones who have ambitions. If you truly miss your sister well, then study well after annulling the marriage." Gu Liuyan sighed. Seeing that the guards were back, she quickly grabbed him and hid in a corner.
Qi Lin stared blankly at Gu Daiyan, who was covering his mouth. He quickly pulled her hand down, "How did you know?"
"One is to check her pulse. Two, your sister has been looking at you with the eyes of a dragon. In the Qi Province, you are her only hope." Gu Qingyan lowered his voice, but still covered his mouth and glared at him.
Only then did Qi Lin obediently retract his exposed feet, his eyes wide open.
After the guard left, the two of them followed the route they had taken earlier. Gu Danyan climbed up the wall and stretched out his hand towards him.
Under the moonlight, Qi Lin looked at Gu Tinyan's face, but he felt that she was very much like his sister.
"Hurry up." Gu Danyan urged softly and raised his hand.
Suddenly, Qi Lin reached out his hand and pulled him up with a smile. With all her strength, she managed to pull him up. The two of them jumped down and fell down again. They could only limp back to the medicine house.
The two lanterns by the entrance of the medicine house were still lit.
"It should have been left behind by Qing Dai. It's so considerate." Gu Danyan rubbed his arm and pushed open the door.
In the next moment, a silver light appeared and countless weapons were pointed at her.
With a start, the jade bottle she had hidden in her sleeve fell to the ground, blowing up a small cloud of dust.
She covered his mouth and nose with his hand and took a few steps back, knocking Qi Lin to the ground. In the next moment, she hurriedly stuffed some medicine into Qi Lin's mouth and took one for himself. Only then did he slowly stand up and watch the group of people fall.
"It has been a few days since we last met, and you are so impressive." Duan Chengxuan's deep voice sounded out from the courtyard.
Gu Liuyan looked over and saw Duan Chengxuan and Duan Chengyu sitting before a stone table in the courtyard. There were even a few dishes of fresh wine on the table, but the dense crowd of people before them all drew their sabers from their waists.
Cheng Er firmly landed in front of her and said in a low voice, "Esteemed wangfei."
"Your Royal Highness, are you preparing to put me to death?" Gu Liuyan's face immediately became cold. He stepped into the smoke and dust, passed through the crowd, and sat down in front of the stone table. His eyes shined: "I wonder what I did wrong this time? "They actually managed to cause such a huge ruckus?"
Qi Lin also bravely walked in, closing the door behind him and ruthlessly extinguishing the medicine house lantern.
On the other hand, Duan Chengxuan crushed the cup in his hand and tea flowed down onto the ground, "Why do you have to take care of this matter? "After bringing Qi Lin back, I turn a blind eye. You actually dared to enter the Qi household at night today, could it be that you want to help Qi Lin get the Misty Rain Pavilion's secret recipe, and help Qi Lin become the next head of the family?"
"I went to the Qi Residence to treat Qi Lin's second sister." Gu Danyan looked at him.
