Although Liang Ruyan's voice was soft, she did not submit. She smiled and said, "It's because Tian'er is unwilling. Could it be that a mother like me can force him to marry someone I'm satisfied with?"
She raised her head, her face filled with helplessness as she said: "Mother, you know Tian'er's character, you love him the most, aren't you afraid that he will leave home without saying a word for three years?"
Old Madam Bai immediately shut her mouth. Now that Bai Lingtian was the most promising child in the Bai Clan, she did not wish to leave for another three years.
Thus, Old Madam Bai shifted her hatred and started to hate Gu Hua Jing, "It's all that slut's fault! You don't know how to arrange our Bai Family in the outside world, and how can she not die after scaring those people?! "
"Mother, Tian'er said that he did not want to get married for now, and it seems like the Second Prince has some important tasks to entrust to him. It's good that these people are not too enthusiastic, as we still have to think of a way to deal with them."
Liang Ruyan's indifference made Old Madam Bai so angry that smoke was about to rise from her head. How could she not be anxious? What do you mean don't want to deal with it? Was that the glory of the Bai Clan?
Now, the number of families that this little bitch Gu Hua Jing had brought to her house to kiss lessened. Thinking about it, Old Madam Bai immediately became angry.
But what could she do? She had many ladies that she thought were not bad, but since Bai Lingtian was unwilling, she couldn't force him to marry her …
While the Bai Family was infuriated by Gu Hua Jing, Gu Hua Jing's carriage arrived at the Gu Family residence.
Today, Gu Yuan Pei, Gu Hua Lei, and Gu Hua Xuan were all gone, leaving Gu Hua Ran in the mansion. After Gu Hua Jing saw Yang Jia Yao, she went to Gu Hua Ran's courtyard.
It was quiet and elegant, paved with pebbles. There were many plants growing in the yard, but there were very few that bloomed. There was only a patch of green flowers. Upon walking in, one would feel that it had become much quieter.
Gu Hua Ran was waiting for her in the meditation room. When Gu Hua Jing heard this, she was stunned. Could it be that this unworldly third brother really planned to forget the mortal world and enter the buddhist gate?
The meditation room was built with green bamboo, with light green curtains that let one's heart calm down. There were two prayer mats in the middle, and Gu Hua Ran was sitting on one of them.
Gu Hua Ran was probably the most outstanding person Gu Hua Jing had ever met.
He was sitting up straight, wearing a plain white robe, black hair, and a jade crown. There was not a speck of dust on his face.
However, when she went back to the Bai Clan for her dowry, Gu Hua Jing had heard how Gu Hua Ran had made the Bai Clan pay a considerable amount of silver taels as compensation. Gu Hua Jing had thought that there were still many things unknown to her third brother.
"You're here?"
Gu Hua Ran held the teapot in his hand, poured out a cup of steaming hot fragrant tea and pushed it to the other side.
Gu Hua Jing sat on the other praying mat and sweetly greeted Gu Hua Ran.
"Coming to third brother, I always have the feeling of passing away …"
"There is a place where we can hide from the clamor of the secular world. It might be a good thing."
Even Gu Hua Ran's tone was filled with the feeling of an expert looking down on worldly affairs. Gu Hua Jing suddenly felt that her visit to Gu Hua Ran today might have been the wrong one.
"Speak, you rarely come to my place."
Gu Hua Ran slowly took a sip of tea and raised his head to look at Gu Hua Jing.
Gu Hua Jing's clear eyes blinked and she took a deep breath, "Third brother, do you know that father once showed me a marriage ceremony?"
"Got it."
"Do you know which family it is?"
Gu Hua Ran looked at her, "Why did you ask this? That house … Already married. "
"I just want to know. Third brother, just tell me."
Gu Hua Jing made the pose of a little girl, her beautiful eyes flashing with anticipation.
However, Gu Hua Ran didn't tell her directly, "I heard that you met Third and Fourth Prince at the Shao Family that day?"
Gu Hua Jing stared blankly for a moment before nodding her head.
"What do you think?"
How about it? Gu Hua Jing didn't quite understand what Gu Hua Ran meant. She tried to think about it, "Both princes have extraordinary bearing. The fourth prince seems to be even more imposing. The third prince …"
Gu Hua Jing suddenly stopped. She didn't know what to say. She always felt an inexplicable resistance towards the Third Prince's appearance, but no one else seemed to have noticed.
"Why didn't you say anything?" How about the Third Prince? "
Gu Hua Jing wrinkled her brows, "Third brother, the third prince is so extraordinarily handsome, so why wouldn't I dare to approach him? Is it because I have lost my courage when compared to the Bai Clan? "
"..." Do you think he's a little scary? "
Gu Hua Ran's expression finally changed. He no longer had the feeling of an otherworldly expert as he suddenly leaned forward and stared intently at Gu Hua Jing. "What kind of feeling is it?"
"T-that's …" "I feel that there might not be a good ending if we get close …"
Gu Hua Jing was so surprised by Gu Hua Ran's reaction that she subconsciously responded. She didn't expect Gu Hua Ran to hear this and open his eyes wide with interest.
"Didn't I say it before? You are the daughter of the Gu family, so you are born with an extraordinary intuition. Even Bai Lingtian himself is not bad."
Gu Hua Ran was clapping his hands. He looked completely different from the man he had just been, but Gu Hua Jing didn't seem surprised at all.
"Third brother, you haven't told me which family my dad is going to take a look at."
"Tao family, a colleague of father."
"Then the Tao clan …"
"The Tao clan has been a Confucian clan for many generations, but they never thought that there would be two military generals in their generation. At such a young age, they have already become commander-in-chiefs. They are very popular in the eyes of the fourth prince."
"…" Gu Hua Jing blinked. Why did Gu Hua Ran ask all of her questions before she had the chance to ask them?
Looking at her expression, Gu Hua Ran couldn't help but laugh lightly, "What's wrong? Didn't you come here to ask? I thought you finally noticed something. "
"That is to say, third brother has already sensed it?"
Gu Hua Ran lightly tapped the table with his knuckles. "Although you have been doted upon at home, you are not a person that is proud of your pettiness. However, Bai Ling Tian's attitude has always been cold, so I didn't think too much about it at the beginning."
"Who knew that on the day of your marriage, he left the capital to guard, which made me realize that something was amiss. However, you are already a member of the Bai Clan, and everything has been settled. I thought that by the time Bai Lingtian returned, it might have already been resolved, but I didn't expect that …"
Gu Hua Ran's expression darkened. He did not expect that the Bai Family would be so ignorant as to place Bai Ling Tian in the hands of Gu Hua Jing!
"So third brother, I, Bai Lingtian, have become like this. Do you think that it could be … The Fourth Prince …? "
"Not exactly, but it's most likely."
"But, that day at Shao Mansion, why is it that the Fourth Prince's words and words were out to avenge Bai Lingtian? Isn't Bai Lingtian his man?"
"If they were his people, how could they send him out of the capital on the day of his marriage?"
Gu Hua Jing turned her head, only to hear Gu Hua Ran's cold voice continuing, "Although Bai Lingtian was ordered by the fourth prince, his relationship with the second prince is closer."
"…" Gu Hua Jing needed some time to sort things out. Bai Lingtian was the Second Prince's man and he was willing to marry him regardless of his own persuasion. How could the Fourth Prince be unhappy?
How stupid was Bai Lingtian? Had he never suspected it? Or could it be that the fourth prince had been more meticulous in his arrangements with Bai Lingtian, which was why there were no flaws?
Gu Hua Jing wrinkled her brows and became lost in thought. Gu Hua Ran didn't pay attention to him and continued to drink his tea in satisfaction.
If he had been more alert, maybe Jingjing wouldn't have to suffer these years. Fortunately, Jingjing was fine and it wasn't too late!
Gu Hua Jing took a while to regain her composure, but her face still had a trace of anger on it, "So, in the future, do I often meet people who fall in love with me for no reason? Third brother, you haven't gotten married yet, so why don't they come and curry favor with you? "
Gu Hua Ran rolled his eyes at her. He was such a charming and elegant person, yet he actually rolled his eyes very skillfully. "What do you think? Why do you think I don't look like a woman at all?"
"…" Gu Hua Jing was immediately stunned, and her mouth formed a circle.
No way … That's why third brother is so otherworldly? Was it because of this reason?
"But don't worry, it won't last long."
Gu Hua Ran narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the Imperial Palace. Gu Hua Jing understood that once the reserve was established, the situation might not be as chaotic as it was now.
"..." Third brother, after you lost your virginity, did anyone send you a gift … "Hmm, a man?"
Gu Hua Ran was petrified. His eyes slowly shifted back, looking at his little sister who was more curious than shy. Those bright eyes of his were filled with anticipation.
"I just don't think that those people would give up so easily. Didn't they try any other methods?"
"Is there anything else you need? I'm going to meditate soon. "
"Third brother, don't be like this. Just tell me so that I can prepare?"
"What is there to prepare!"
A few birds flew up from the bamboo forest outside the meditation room. The attendants outside the room looked at the meditation room in surprise.
Their young master had always been gentle, elegant, and holy. How could he make such an exasperated sound?
After leaving the Gu household, Gu Hua Jing couldn't help but punch the soft pillow in the carriage, her laughter uncontrollable.
He really did give it to him!
Those people were too talented. When they saw that their third brother didn't love women, they sent the man away. Why didn't they ascend to the sky?
Upon seeing this, Qingmei kneeled down in silence, waiting to massage Gu Hua Jing's stomach with a helpless look on her face.
"Miss, the shopkeeper just sent someone over. He said that the young master of the Bai Clan went to the restaurant again."
"Is that so? "Then let's go as well."
Gu Hua Jing's stomach was twitching. She leaned on Qing Mei's shoulder and gently rubbed it, "Miss, do you want to see the young master of the Bai Family?" Senior Servant Tian is still a bit worried. "
"What are you worried about? "Worried that I would be bewitched by his beauty, don't worry, he would not like it as much as you all."
Qingmei blushed but shook her head, "You don't have any feelings for Master Bai, but I am sure Master Bai wouldn't be interested in you. These days, I have been going to the restaurant to support you. I think …" "I feel like …"
"I feel like he's beginning to like me, afraid that I'll fall in again?"
Gu Hua Jing helped Qing Mei finish her sentence. Although Qing Mei knew that she had overstepped her boundaries, she couldn't help but nod.
