2403 Chapter 2403-obviously different
Gu en’s heart felt a little stifled. Sisi would definitely be engaged to Huo Junhao. The Gu family knew this.
After the girls of the Gu family had finished their turn, it should be his turn, the eldest boy!
In the end, that stinky brat already had an engaged partner, and no one in the family had considered him?
Was he not working hard enough?
“What’s wrong with Enzi? Did you panic when you heard that you’re going to betroth ninren?” The Empress Dowager looked at Gu en and asked with a smile.
Gu en was stunned. Was he that obvious?
Gu Xin and Gu si looked at him with a smile.
“It’s no use panicking! Why do you think I said that I wanted to betroth her to Ren Ren? Wasn’t that because everyone could see the little girl Ming Yue’s little thoughts? Childhood sweethearts, innocent playmates, that was the two of them. En Zi, you don’t have such a little girl by your side. Even if great-grandma wants to make a decision for you, I can’t!” The Grand Empress Dowager chuckled.
“No, no, no,” Gu en shook his head. great-grandmother, that’s not what I meant. I’m not panicking. I’m not panicking at all. I’m focusing on my studies now.”
“Hahahaha, how can a fine young man not miss a lady? Even if you focus on your studies, you’ll still be tempted when it’s time.” The Grand Empress Dowager did not believe it at all.
She had lived for so long, and although she spent most of her time in the palace for the next few decades, she was quite accurate in judging people!
Was it obvious that things were different now that en Ziyou had returned from his studies?
This kid probably didn’t even realize his own intentions.
The Empress Dowager did not intend to remind Gu en. For such matters, let him discover it himself.
She stopped talking about this and started asking about Gu Xin’s trip to Thailand.
She already knew about the few cases, but she still wanted to hear from Gu Xin.
Gu Xin went on to explain everything. Other than the case at the Prince of Dong Lin’s mansion, Gu en was involved in the other two cases. Whenever Gu Xin mentioned Zheng Qiu, Gu en would interrupt. The Empress Dowager could not help but look at him a few times, but he did not even realize it.
“En ‘Zi, is this Xiao Qiu very close to you?” The Empress Dowager asked.
She was aware of Zheng Qiu’s identity. Zheng Qiu was now the coroner of the court of judicial review. Although he did not have a high position, the higher-ups would definitely find out about the people in the court of judicial review. Therefore, the Emperor knew that Zheng Qiu was a child of the Zheng family. Since Zheng Qiu was close to Gu Xin, the Empress Dowager would naturally know about it.
However, when the Empress Dowager saw that Gu en did not seem to know that Zheng Qiu was a girl, she was surprised. This great-grandson of hers seemed to be quite clever, how could he not know?
“That’s right, great-grandma,” Gu en was a little excited. although I haven’t known Xiao Qiu for long, I feel like we’ve hit it off at first sight. “When we were at Qi ‘an Inn, I was still talking to Xiao Qiu through the night, but I was already dozing off. Xiao Qiu is very hardworking. I was still thinking about when I’d go to Xiao Qiu for a long talk when there weren’t any major cases in the capital! I think he’s very interesting. He’s the most special person I’ve met in my life.”
Gu Xin and Gu si looked at each other. Wasn’t this development a little too fast? they had just separated yesterday and today was already the most special?
If you’re like this, you’ll be in great pain if you can’t tell that she’s a girl.
He was deeply worried for Gu en, but he did not feel anything at all. He continued to tell the Empress Dowager about how special Zheng Qiu was.
