The hall was filled with the fragrance of books. Everyone was exchanging blows with each other. It was very poetic and carefree.
Shen Zhiying was no longer in the mood to continue playing. All her thoughts and attention were placed in front of her.
That figure was fair and slender. He was holding the teacup and sipping at his own pace.
Shen Zhiying was puzzled.
Why didn't his gaze fall on them from the beginning until now?
"Why isn't Prime Minister Gu with us?" Shen Zhiying suddenly asked.
When the crowd who were still reciting poems heard this, they paused and turned to look at Gu Jinyan.
Ling Jianming's entire body stiffened.
There was a moment of silence. He hurriedly came over to smooth things over. "I invited Prime Minister Gu to be the judge. It's fine if he doesn't participate in the game."
My goodness, this Shen Zhiying was really poking at his sore spot!
He had coaxed Gu Jinyan for a long time before he agreed to come over. Now, not only were all the girls staring at him, naked. He also had to block those rumors for him.
Ling Jianming was speechless.
It was too difficult for him.
"Judge?" Everyone asked in confusion.
Ling Jianming nodded and explained, "We will continue to play the game later. But if there is a conflict between the two, Prime Minister Gu will have to step in."
Ling Jianming looked at Gu Jinyan with admiration. "Thinking of Prime Minister Gu's honest and amiable character, I believe everyone will believe that he won't do anything fake."
A new round of the game began. At the end of the poem appreciation, everyone was in high spirits. Some people also took a sip of the wine on the table to cater to the atmosphere.
The hall was filled with the aroma of wine and books.
"Prime Minister Gu only drinks tea and not wine?"
At some point, Shen Zhiying, who was reciting poems with everyone, had slowly walked over to Gu Jinyan with a wine glass.
The girl was delicate and had a gentle demeanor. The way she raised her wine glass was very polite. She looked like a well-educated young lady.
Seeing Shen Zhiying approach, those who were drinking stopped what they were doing and instinctively turned to look at her.
They swallowed their saliva and were a little curious.
Shen Zhiying held her wine glass with a calm expression. Her smile was neither servile nor overbearing. There was nothing strange about her.
Under her secretly nervous gaze, the snow-clothed youth in front of her gently raised his eyes. His long eyelashes revealed his pitch-black eyes.
His gaze was calm and indifferent.
He rejected her coldly, "No need."
Gu Jinyan's rejection was too straightforward. He didn't hesitate at all. This made Shen Zhiying feel awkward.
The wine cup in his hand was abnormally hot and unbearable.
At this time, an unexpected lazy voice sounded. "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Shen, but the Prime Minister has a rule that he does not drink wine from outsiders."
Hearing this voice, everyone was stunned and turned to look at the door.
The girl's figure was tall and slender. She wore a long scarlet dress that was gorgeous and charming.
Her face was beautiful, and her light brown eyes were half-squinted like a kitten's.
His slender body leaned lazily against the door.
His lazy gaze fell on Shen Zhiying with a faint smile that could not be understood.
