If Mu Ling 'er had said she had dropped something and needed to pick it up, Han Yunxi and Qin Min would not have taken it to heart. However, Mu Ling 'er's three' nos' in a row only made it more conspicuous.
Qin Min was still afraid to take a step forward, while Han Yunxi walked over quickly. Mu Ling 'er picked up the items that had fallen out of the wooden box in a fluster, but Han Yunxi caught her in the act.
"Gu gave it to you? Did he drop it? "
Han Yunxi bent down, but she froze inside. That was because she saw something familiar! Gu's embroidered box contained none other than the "little black book" granny Zhao had given her all those years ago. No, this little black book was different from the one granny Zhao had given her! At the very least, the cover of the book granny Zhao had given her was completely black, but Gu's book did not even leave the cover untouched!
Seriously … seriously!
Han Yunxi's little black book had ended up in Long Fei Ye's hands a long time ago. Although she had only read it once or twice, … it had left a deep impression on her! Han Yunxi's face had already reddened, let alone Mu Ling 'er. Even her ears had turned completely red. She hurriedly put the small book into the brocade box.
"What's wrong? Did you drop the gift? "Qin Min asked loudly as she sat on the couch.
Han Yunxi and Mu Ling 'er had no idea how to answer her. Qin Min thought Mu Ling' er had broken something, so she said in a hurry, "It's fine. I'll tell M- I'll tell Northmoon later." Qin Min still felt rather awkward when she referred to headmaster Northmoon as "Northmoon".
"It's not broken. It's not open. Who knows what's inside?" Mu Ling 'er said in a hurry. She thought about it and added, "Qi Brother gave it to Doctor Gu. We can't open it so casually. Qi Brother will get angry!"
Qin Min was a little puzzled. She felt that something was amiss, but seeing that Han Yunxi was talking too much, she didn't take it seriously.
"We're leaving. Miss Qin, have a good rest." Han Yunxi didn't dare to approach her. She felt that her face was still very hot.
"Princess, you can just call me Qin Min. The banquet hasn't ended yet. Princess, you should go back quickly. Don't let His Highness wait too long. "Qin Min smiled.
When Han Yunxi and Mu Ling'er left the room, they both breathed a sigh of relief. Han Yunxi unconsciously looked at Mu Ling'er, and Mu Ling'er also looked at her.
The two sisters looked at each other and Mu Ling 'er burst out laughing. "Sister, Brother Qi is so mean!"
"I didn't see anything. I don't know!" Han Yunxi said seriously.
"I didn't see anything either!" Mu Ling 'er also expressed her opinion.
If Gu Beiyue knew that they saw something inside, how would they face each other in the future?
The two sisters walked forward in silence.
When Han Yunxi saw that Mu Ling'er was laughing and scolding Gu, she knew that this little girl had survived.
Not long after, Mu Ling'er became restless. She whispered, "Sister, will Qin Min open that box?"
Han Yunxi originally wanted to say "No." However, when she thought about it carefully, she was the one who opened most of the things that other people gave to Long Fei Ye.
"That's their business. Why are you so worried?" Hurry up and leave!
"Sister, will Doctor Gu open that book when he sees it?" Mu Ling'er asked again.
Before Han Yunxi could reply, Mu Ling'er asked another question. "Sister, Qi Brother is a big pervert. He must have read it! Sister, when you and His Highness got married … "
Han Yunxi stopped and looked at her seriously. "Shh!"
Mu Ling'er shut her mouth resentfully. Her face was so red that it was about to burn, but she still kept asking. Han Yunxi really had to hand it to her.
After Han Yunxi glared fiercely at her, Mu Ling'er finally ended the topic. She didn't know that thanks to Granny Zhao, that old palace maid, her sister had actually read it. In fact … she had read the entire book!
Although not many people were invited to the wedding, it was still quite lively. Han Yunxi returned to Long Fei Ye's side and found that Long Fei Ye was in a good mood. He was drinking with Gu Beiyue, Vice Academy Head Shen, and the other higher-ups of the medical academy.
Amidst the toasts, Long Fei Ye deliberately talked about Gu Beiyue's idea of taking up a position in a large hospital and opening up a specialty in medicine during the imperial examinations to recruit talents in the medical field. Gu Beiyue also took advantage of the idle chatter at the table to convey his views to everyone present.
Men always talked about important matters at the table. Han Yunxi pulled Mu Ling'er to sit at the side and listened attentively without making a sound.
At this time, the servant girl had not entered the room.
Qin Min was attracted by the room full of forsythia flowers. When Han Yunxi and the others were present, her attention was all on her legs and she didn't notice the layout of the bridal room. She only saw a few pots.
However, after Han Yunxi and her sister left, she realized that the bridal room was simply a greenhouse! Yellow forsythia flowers could be seen everywhere. On the table, on the cabinet, on the floor, on the wall, and even on the bed!
She had mentioned to Gu Beiyue that the wedding didn't need to be extravagant or decorated. It was fine as long as it was simple. She indeed didn't like ostentation or liveliness.
However, she didn't expect that Gu Beiyue would actually give her such a greenhouse.
For the first time, she realized that the bridal room of a big wedding didn't need to be red. It could also be decorated so quietly and beautifully!
Even if it was a fake marriage, he was really considerate. However, she couldn't figure it out. How did Gu Beiyue know that she liked forsythia flowers?
Hearing footsteps outside the room, Qin Min hurriedly covered her head with the red veil. Medicine was applied on her legs, and Han Yunxi helped her bandage them very well. After she lowered her skirt, no one could tell what had happened.
Perhaps, she could really give Gu Beiyue a surprise.
Even if they treated each other with respect, she didn't want to let down the title of "Madam of the Dean" too much. After all, this title was worthy of a woman who was hundreds of times better than her.
There was no disturbance in the bridal room as Mu Ling'er had said. The bride's legs were inconvenient, and Gu Beiyue didn't like to be noisy. More importantly, other than the Long Fei Ye, none of the invited men dared to disturb Gu Beiyue's romantic night. And the Long Fei Ye would definitely not do such a thing.
After the wedding banquet, the Long Fei Ye and Gu Beiyue drank tea and chatted for a while. Gu Beiyue officially agreed to be the Grand Tutor, so the Long Fei Ye let him go.
First, the Long Fei Ye was busy with the establishment of the country, so he didn't have time to stay in Medical City. Second, Gu Beiyue was newly married and had to spend more time with his bride, so he didn't have time to accompany her. Therefore, that night, the Long Fei Ye, Han Yunxi, and Mu Ling'er set off for Yunning Palace.
When Gu Beiyue returned to his room, it wasn't early, but it wasn't very late either. Qin Min was tired from sitting, so she leaned against the bedpost and fell asleep. She didn't even notice when Gu Beiyue came in.
The servant girl wanted to wake her up, but Gu Beiyue raised his hand and stopped her, telling the servant girl to leave.
The servant girl whispered, "Master, the wedding nanny is still waiting next door. She …"
Gu Beiyue handed the servant girl a bag of silver and said in a low voice, "No need. You've been busy all day. Go rest."
"Thank you, Master. You have a son early!" The servant girl was overjoyed. She took the silver and quickly left.
Gu Beiyue closed the door and looked at Qin Min from afar. A trace of pity flashed through his eyes. He hesitated for a moment, but still walked over and whispered, "Eldest Miss Qin, wake up."
Qin Min was still sleeping soundly. Gu Beiyue called her several times, but she didn't wake up.
"You've been sitting all day. Are you tired?" Gu Beiyue whispered with a smile.
If she slept sitting like this, her whole body would be sore the next morning. Moreover, Qin Min's legs probably wouldn't be able to take it.
Gu Beiyue seemed to hesitate, but he soon calmed down. He carefully made the bed and took down the forsythia flowers that Mu Ling'er had laid.
He was about to pull off Qin Min's red veil when he suddenly stopped. He deliberately took the wedding scale that the wedding nanny had put aside and lifted the red veil.
Gu Beiyue had seen Qin Min several times, but Qin Min was a beautiful woman. However, after lifting the red veil, he was still a little surprised. Qin Min, who was wearing red makeup, was much more beautiful than usual. Especially under the illumination of the red candles, her facial features appeared even more delicate.
Gu Beiyue had never thought of Qin Min as a bride, but when he saw Qin Min's makeup, he realized that he had married a wife. Although it was just an act, it could be considered a real marriage.
She didn't know what he was thinking, but a warm smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He was still gentle and indifferent.
Qin Min actually didn't sleep at all last night. The group of people in the Qin family took turns to talk to her, asking her to beg Gu Beiyue for this and that. Although she didn't agree in her heart, she still agreed on the surface. She was very tired. Her red veil was already lifted. She subconsciously stroked her hair, but she still didn't wake up.
Gu Beiyue frowned. After thinking for a while, he bent down and held Qin Min's shoulders with one hand and her legs with the other. He gently carried her horizontally. Gu Beiyue had never carried a woman like this. Just now, he was frowning and thinking about how to carry her, so his movements were really stiff.
Luckily, he didn't carry her for too long. Once he carried Qin Min, he immediately laid her flat on the bed. However, just as he was about to withdraw his hands, Qin Min suddenly opened her eyes.
At this moment, Gu Beiyue's right hand was still behind her neck and his left hand was still under her legs. His whole body was leaning in front of her, very close.
Qin Min was still in a daze at first, but she quickly woke up and realized that Gu Beiyue was lying on top of her!
Heavens! He was so close, so close. This … what was going on?
Gu Beiyue didn't expect Qin Min to wake up at this time. Although he was surprised, he was still calm and collected. He immediately retreated and got up.
Qin Min quickly sat up and stared blankly at Gu Beiyue. Her face couldn't help but turn red and she didn't know what to say.
Gu Beiyue explained calmly, "I called you a few times, but you didn't wake up. I was afraid that you'd tire yourself out and hurt your leg, so … "
He smiled. "Sorry for my lack of manners."
Only then did Qin Min let out a sigh of relief. She was nervous, but not because she was afraid that Gu Beiyue would do anything to her. She knew that he wouldn't.
However, she didn't know what she was nervous about.
She avoided the topic and said, "Dean Beiyue, what time is it now?"
"It's midnight," Gu Beiyue answered.
Qin Min was shocked. "It's time!"
There was medicine on her leg. Although it wasn't much, it was already time to change it. Han Yunxi had said that it had to be changed on time, or the toxins that had been sucked out would seep back into her leg.
Gu Beiyue was confused. "What time?"
Qin Min looked at him. As she looked and looked, she suddenly smiled. Qin Min's smile made Gu Beiyue even more puzzled. He didn't pursue the matter and just looked at Qin Min.
"Dean Beiyue, I want to share a piece of good news with you." Qin Min became serious. "I think this matter doesn't just concern me, but you too. After all, we're husband and wife now. "
"What is it?" Gu Beiyue asked.
Qin Min gently lifted her skirt, just a little, but Gu Beiyue immediately noticed that she had medicine on her leg!
He actually didn't notice when he was holding her leg!
