Chapter 13

Gu Changgeng was caught off guard by Lin Qingqian. He hit his back against the wall and took a breath in pain.

It was not easy to slow down. He shouted coldly, "Lin Qingqian! What do you want to do!"

Gu Changgeng wanted to push the man in his arms away, and there was another thunder outside. Lin Qingqian's small body trembled, his small hands clutching the front of his clothes, and the whole person shrank into a ball and drilled into his arms.

Gu Changgeng was angry, "Lin Qingqian!"

There was constant thunder outside. Gu Changgeng just wanted to throw people out. Lin Qingqian cried, "brother Changgeng, let me hug... Just hold it for a while."

"Let go!"

Lin Qingqian didn't follow, so he pestered Gu Changgeng around his waist.

Gu Changgeng's eyes were as cold as a knife. He couldn't bear to throw the man in his arms out. He just knocked Lin Qingqian's shoulder and found that her petite body trembled slightly. Every time the thunder sounded outside, she trembled more and more.

The action on the hand paused. Gu Changgeng said, "are you afraid of thunder?"

Lin Qingqian really cried this time. She was afraid that even if she was an adult in her twenties in modern times, she was scared to death every time there was thunder.

"Brother Changgeng, don't drive me out yet. I... I'll be fine in a minute..."

The little girl was so scared that she hugged him like a drowning man holding on to a life-saving driftwood. The crystal tears in her big eyes were spinning. She looked at him with a begging look, as if she were a pitiful and lovable kitten.

Gu Changgeng closed his lips tightly, but he couldn't push away.

His lips opened and closed several times. He was stunned that he couldn't spit out a word. He closed his eyes heavily and stiffened his body. He simply didn't care.

Thunder and heavy rain rarely occur in winter. I believe it will not last too long and will stop.

Smelling Gu Changgeng's cold breath, Lin Qingqian was relieved. He thought: Although Gu Changgeng is stubborn and indifferent, his heart is good after all. As long as he treats each other sincerely, he will not kill innocent people indiscriminately in the future.

After crossing the Beiming kingdom for a while, Lin Qingqian was in an uneasy state. He didn't rest well for a few days. Now he thought, he was sleepy, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and fell asleep in Gu Changgeng's arms.

After half an hour, there was still lightning and thunder outside.

Gu Changgeng opened his eyes. The person in his arms breathed shallow. He had already slept soundly and moved his stiff body. He just wanted to push the person away. He moved. Lin Qingqian unconsciously frowned and hugged his waist with his arms.

Gu Changgeng held his breath. He was uncomfortable all over and didn't dare to move. For fear of moving, he woke up Lin Qingqian.

The injury to his back made him unable to lean against the wall. Someone was lying on his chest. Gu Changgeng could only tighten his body and sit upright.

Because of this embarrassing situation, Gu Changgeng looked at Lin Qingqian for the first time.

The little girl has fair skin and sleeps quietly with her eyes closed. Her nose hangs under her eyebrows. She is exquisite and small, and her cherry lips are slightly red. Although she is young, she can see the city in the future.

Gu Changgeng stared at Lin Qingqian for a long time, his lips raised, and a self mocking smile flashed in his dark eyes.

He is extremely vicious. He hates Lin Qingqian, but today he can't bear her trembling when she is afraid of thunder.

……

I don't know when the thunderstorm has stopped. With the sound of chickens, the sky outside is slightly bright.

Lin Qingqian, who was trying to sleep, was pushed on his shoulder, vaguely opened his eyes, stared at the young Junxiu's face, and asked foolishly, "brother Changgeng, what's the matter?"

Gu Changgeng's face was instantly black, and his voice was a little gnashing his teeth: "can you loosen me!"

Lin Qingqian looked down and found that his arm was still wrapped around someone's waist. It seemed that he had been scalded. He quickly took back his arm and said with a guilty dry smile: "brother Changgeng, I'm sorry. When the thunder stopped, I'll let go of you. Who knows me... I fell asleep."

I scolded myself in my heart. It was thunderous yesterday. Thanks to her, she could sleep like a dead pig.

Gu Changgeng moved his numb body. Seeing Lin Qingqian standing still, he said coldly, "it's already dawn."

Lin Qingqian looked confused and didn't understand Gu Changgeng's meaning. After a moment, his brain was excited and understood.

"Brother Changgeng, I'll go back to Liuyuan first and I'll see you later in the evening."

Lin Qingqian climbed out of the window quickly. Gu Changgeng pinched his unconscious right hand. He didn't know what to think. His face changed and snorted coldly from his nose.

Lin Qingqian carefully avoided the maid and bodyguard all the way back to the willow garden. Fang lay down on his bed. In spring and summer, he whispered outside the door, "Miss, are you awake? I'll wait on you to wash."

Lin Qingqian took a deep breath, calmed down, pretended to have just woke up, "come in."

Lin Qingqian sat in front of the mirror stage and helped her comb her hair in spring and summer, so he listened to her talk about trivial things.

"Miss, today I asked my sister Qiudong to tell the housekeeper that I need some poison for mice."

Lin Qingqian took a sip of tea and said casually, "well, are there many mice in the willow garden?"

"It's rare in normal times. All the steamed bread left in the steamer of the fire room was eaten this morning. I think all the mice are hidden in the hiding place of the fire room."

As soon as the voice fell, Lin Qingqian choked on his throat with a mouthful of tea and coughed violently.

"Cough... Cough..."

Spring and summer were startled. They quickly patted Lin Qingqian on the back and asked anxiously, "Miss, what's the matter? Why did you cough up? Didn't you get better from the cold last time?"

Lin Qingqian coughed for a while, slowed down and waved his hand, "no, no... He was suddenly choked by tea. It's okay."

Chunxia looked at her with worried eyes, "really?"

"Really." Lin Qingqian answered and quietly changed the topic, "can I have breakfast? I'm a little hungry."

"The maidservant is going to prepare food now."

Spring and summer withdrew to prepare meals, thinking that today's Miss seemed strange, but she couldn't tell.

If Chunxia learned that the mouse who stole the steamed bread in her mouth was Lin Qingqian, she would not be surprised.

……

With breakfast, Lin Qingqian sat quietly in the hospital and stared thoughtfully at the bare ginkgo trees in the hospital. He didn't know what he was thinking.

Chunxia came out with a cloak and draped it over Lin Qingqian. "Miss, it's cold outside. You're weak. Come in and sit down."

Lin Qingqian recovered from his thoughts, smiled and said, "in spring and summer, I was ill for some time. Now I'm well. Let's go. Follow me to grandma's yard to greet her."

Chunxia was shocked. "Miss, are you going to greet the old lady?"

Lin Qingqian nodded slightly, "let's go."

Lin Qingqian went out of the courtyard. Spring and summer recovered from the shock and trotted up.

Lin Qingqian was shocked by spring and summer. His heart was like a mirror.

Old man Lin doesn't like him. He was cowardly before and arrogant and domineering behind. He would never have liked the old lady. If the old lady hadn't seen that the Lin family's children were thin, I'm afraid he would have driven the unwelcome concubine's granddaughter out of the prime minister's house.

But now it's different. Lin Qingqian is not the original body. She clearly understands that it's essential to please people if she wants to live safely in the Lin family.
