After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Bai Yiyi was aware of Li Ziheng's true intentions, but she didn't care.

It is understandable that Gu Jin is loved and cared for by others because of her beauty, but she is now a married woman and poses no threat to him. Instead of being jealous of Gu Jin, he might as well develop her into his own network.

The words "talk about anything" sparked Li Ziheng's interest. He squinted his eyes and looked at Bai Yiyi, "Will Gu Jin open up to you?"

Bai Yiyi half lowered her head and smiled faintly, her thin and frail appearance made people feel pity for her, "Although cousin Gu Jin looks optimistic, she is actually just using her outward strength to cover up her inner fragility.

My uncle and aunt died young, and my cousin Gu Jin was left alone at a young age. How could others understand the pain she felt inside? "

There was a hint of amusement in Li Ziheng's eyes, and he looked at Gu Jin thoughtfully.

Her parents died early, and so did he.

Bai Yiyi's eyes flickered slightly, and she added: "But fortunately, my cousin married someone who is worthy of her lifelong trust, so she has a good home for the rest of her life."

"What a good ending for Xie Ran!" Li Ziheng sneered, a dark light flashed in his eyes and he said in an ambiguous tone, "I'm afraid he won't be able to protect himself in the future."

Bai Yiyi didn't quite understand what he said. She saw that the time was right and brought the topic back to herself. "I've just come to the capital from Jiangnan and I don't know many people yet. What's your name, sir?"

Li Ziheng glanced at her and said in a light tone, "Li Ziheng."

Li Ziheng?

Isn’t that the young prince, the only grandson of Princess Anguo?

Bai Yiyi was overjoyed. She didn't expect that she could meet such a person just by trying her luck.

Although Li Ziheng has a bad reputation, he is of noble status and handsome. If you can marry him, you won't have to worry about your future wealth.

"It turns out to be Master Li." Bai Yiyi knelt down and bowed, smiling and saying, "My father's surname is Bai Gui and my given name is Yiyi."

Bai Yiyi pretended not to know Li Ziheng's identity. Most of the powerful people don't like women who associate with rich and powerful people. This way, when she comes into contact with Li Ziheng in the future, they will not think that she has impure intentions.

Li Ziheng ignored her. Seeing that Gu Jin couldn't spare the energy to pay attention to him for a while, he was annoyed by the noise in the store, so he waved his folding fan and said, "I'm going home first today. Tell Xiao Jin'er that I'll go look for her another day."

Little Jin'er?

Bai Yiyi frowned slightly. Why did the young prince address Gu Jin in such an ambiguous way?

But she still raised her lips and nodded gently, "Okay, Mr. Li, I will tell my cousin."

Looking at Li Ziheng's back, Bai Yiyi's eyes flashed with a determined light. She must win this young prince!

Looking at the little fat lambs filling the store, Gu Jin was in a very good mood, with the corners of his lips curved like a crescent moon, until he saw the figure standing at the door clearly, then the corners of his mouth dropped.

"Why are you here? Don't you think it's unlucky?" Gu Jin took two steps to the door of the store and pushed Xie Qing out of Yuyan Pavilion while no one was noticing.

Xie Qing staggered two steps before she could stand firm. When did she become so strong?

Looking at Gu Jin's furrowed brows, Xie Qing felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

She was clearly smiling so happily just now, why did she have this expression when she saw him?

Xie Qing sighed softly, and his usually stern eyes showed a hint of tenderness, "Are you still blaming me?

Ah Jin, can we still be as good as before?"

Gu Jin's face was full of question marks.

Seeing her stunned with the corners of her lips slightly curled, Xie Qing thought she was hesitating.

He placed an exquisite card with a gold-plated edge in Gu Jin's hand and said in a gentle tone, "If you need anything in the future, just tell me. You don't have to show up in public like this.

Merchants are ultimately the lowest class, and are not something that people like us should touch.”

Gu Jin looked at the card in her hand. This was a membership card she had specially designed for supreme members. She was a little confused by Xie Qing. "What do you mean? What do you mean by the same as before?"

Xie Qing's eyes were somewhat helpless, as if he had already seen through Gu Jin's stubbornness, "You and Third Brother had never met before, so how could you fall in love with someone else just because you married the wrong person? You are just being mad at me.

I married Gu Rou for the sake of the overall situation. Although I feel a little sorry for you, you can understand my helplessness, right?"

He is not a cold-blooded and heartless person, nor did he betray their engagement because of a change of heart. If Gu Jin still has him in her heart, she should be understanding and understanding of him.

Gu Jin raised his eyebrows, rubbed the gold card in his hand, and asked faintly: "Then what do you think I should do?"

Xie Qing stared at Gu Jin. She was dressed gorgeously today, wearing a crabapple-colored tube-top dress embroidered with large peonies, and a long, wide-sleeved, light-colored gold-thread shirt that trailed on the ground.

A golden peony hairpin was inserted diagonally into her hair, and the rubies on the tassels looked like fallen petals adorning her earlobes, making her look as beautiful as a pile of flowers.

He didn't even know why he hadn't noticed how breathtakingly beautiful she was before.

"Divorce your third brother." He looked at her affectionately, his tone solemn, "I will choose a quiet and comfortable courtyard for you, so you don't have to worry about food and clothing anymore.

It will become a paradise that belongs only to you and me, and no trivial matters will disturb you and me anymore."

Xie Qing looked at Gu Jin lovingly, waiting quietly for her to nod in agreement.

Gu Jin's eyelashes twitched slightly, and he slowly raised his eyes, "So, you want me to be your mistress, right?"

Xie Qing patiently explained: "You and I were already engaged, if you hadn't gotten into the wrong sedan chair, you would have been my wife.

So how can you be a concubine? You just changed your identity to stay with me. Of course, if you don't like this, I will find another way after I inherit the title..."

"What can I do? Become your concubine?" Gu Jin sneered, looking at Xie Qing with a look of ridicule, "Or divorce your wife and marry someone else?"

Gu Jin shook his head and said, "You value your reputation so much, you will definitely not leave such a stain. When the time comes, you will just continue to let me understand you and fulfill you like today."

Xie Qing came to his senses from his self-admiration, frowned and asked, "You don't want to be with me?"

I'd rather you sir!

"Xie Qing, there is something I have wanted to tell you for a long time."

Gu Jin curled her lips and smiled, then punched Xie Qing in the face.

"You really make me sick!"

Xie Qing never thought that Gu Jin would refuse, and even less did he expect that Gu Jin would hit him.

He staggered a few steps, covered his starry left eye, and looked at Gu Jin in disbelief, "You hit me?"

"You should be thankful that I was born in a society ruled by law, otherwise I would really like to kill you!"

"You dare to let me give up being your wife and become your mistress!" Gu Jin was disgusted by Xie Qing's nonsense, "You keep talking about the overall situation. To put it bluntly, aren't you just after the title of Marquis?

What? If you become the Marquis of Yongchang, the Chen State will be able to unify the world? The population of the Chen State will double?

Xie Qing, do you know that I feel so sick every time I hear you talk?

You are the one who is treacherous and indecisive. Who do you think you are? Everyone in the world must give in to your ambitions!"

Xie Qing had never been insulted like this in his life. Outside, he was the son of Langyue Qingfeng, and at home, he was the upright and reliable eldest son of a marquisate. What right did Gu Jin have to speak so badly of him!

Gu Jin let out a long sigh of relief. It turned out that dirty words had to be spoken out, otherwise his heart would be filled with dirt.

"Also, you and I are not the same kind of people, so don't bring me up when you talk to me in the future.

You cursed me even more foully than I did!" In Gu Jin's opinion, a hypocrite like Xie Qing is worse than Shen Wuji, at least he dares to admit what he did.

Xie Qing was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Gu Jin and was about to refute when a servant from the Marquisate came in hurriedly. "Young Master, something's wrong. The Young Mistress suddenly fainted and is unconscious. You should go back and check on her!"

Xie Qing frowned. Why did he feel dizzy at this time instead of earlier or later?

Gu Jin said coldly and started to leave, but the servant called out to Gu Jin again, "Third Young Madam, please come back with us."

Gu Jin: “…”

It’s over, someone is thinking about me again.
