According to the rules, this was against the rules, especially in front of so many maids and servants. Such an action would be unwise if it was said to be small, but if it was big, then it would be unbecoming and frivolous in manner. Just this one move alone was enough to knock away all the dust and cause him to be unable to lift his head.

"How can a girl be so naughty!" However, Gu Yan Nian didn't seem to notice. His sharp gaze landed on her small face covered in sweat and his brows furrowed even more tightly. His tone was still cold and old-fashioned.

However, Gu Qingyi clearly felt that there was a hint of concern hidden within his words. Furthermore, his body was trembling slightly.

"Heh heh, it's my daughter's fault. She just wanted to chat with Little Brother and almost missed out on some time. He was afraid that his father would only do it when he got anxious … Hehe, Daddy, you can't be angry … " As Gu Qingyi spoke, she mischievously stuck out her tongue. Her two small hands held tightly onto his arms as she shook them, looking completely like a little girl.

Tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that I would be able to do such a thing one day. Although Gu Qingyi didn't show it on her face, her heart was filled with a bitter smile. Men really did take advantage of this situation. Even Gu Yan Nian, who came from a peerless background, couldn't avoid it. On the surface, he had an old-fashioned, pedantic look. He wished that all the girls would follow his example, wanting to use a ruler to measure their manners.

But from the bottom of his heart, he still hoped that his wife and children would be warm around him. He must be used to life and death; he looked more and more solemn, and his heart was more and more lonely.

"You … Hurry up and get on the carriage, it's not good to miss time. "

Gu Yan Nian opened and closed his mouth as though he wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat.

She only urged Gu Qingyi to get on the carriage quickly.

Upon seeing this, the old woman had sharp eyes as she went forward to support him, but she didn't expect to be separated by Gu Yinian's side. He personally supported Gu Qingyi onto the carriage, while he himself lightly leapt onto the horse.

Gu Qingyi was dumbfounded by what she saw.

In her previous life, she had seen quite a few powerful people in the capital. There was no lack of people who were not efficient. However, compared to Gu Yan Nian, she had been defeated in a matter of minutes.

Although Gu Yan Nian was no longer doubtful, he had practiced his martial arts to a great extent due to his background. Even though he hadn't fallen behind in the recent years, compared to those adults in the capital who only knew how to enjoy a warm life in the backyard, he was still much better. Not to mention those good-for-nothings who only knew how to stir up trouble.

"No wonder …" No wonder Lian Feng Yue was so shameless as to stick close to him. Gu Qingyi pursed her lips, but didn't finish her sentence.

He was a man in his forties, yet his demeanor was still the same, not to mention more than ten years ago.

Moreover, this person's identity was illustrious. Moreover, without any interference from his relatives, there was only a noble imperial concubine on top. This was simply the best choice even for Feng Yue at that time. Speaking of which, the person who understood her father the most was Lian Feng Yue. No matter how domineering she was in front of her servants, she always had a timid look in front of Gu Yan Nian.

In his previous life, he had never forgotten to be dignified. He would remind himself that no matter what he did, he had to conform to his current identity. He would put himself into the same role model little by little, refusing to step with it. Most of the time, even when he knew that his father wanted to get close to him, he would still act in a neither cold nor hot manner due to the rules.

Until the moment of his death, only then did he realize how laughable everything he had done was. The perfection that he thought he had, was only slowly turning him into a wooden puppet.
