Substitute Bride: The Gentle Husband of the Evil Girl is Crazy and Wild

Gu Fei tilted his head and stared at her with lifeless eyes.

Even though he couldn't see it, Li Xiaoyu felt guilty as if he was seen through.

"I'm serious. The Ministry of Justice is not a place that a country bumpkin like me can get into." She didn't know where Gu Fei got the confidence from to think she could make it to the Ministry of Justice.

Gu Fei listened to her quietly. He neither denied nor confirmed.

He just said calmly: "Next time you go to the city, buy a book and ask me if there are any words you don't understand."

Li Xiaoyu didn't know that someone had planned the highest point of this path for her. Rather than getting into the Ministry of Justice, she was more curious about how Gu Fei would help her recognize those rare characters.

"But your eyes..."

Before she could finish her words, the man took over and said, "You can recognize half of a word you don't know, but I can't use your ability to recognize half of a word to know the original pronunciation of that word?"

These words, without any hesitation, completely blocked Li Xiaoyu's escape route.

She smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes. If my husband says yes, then yes."

"continue."

As Gu Fei finished saying these two words, Li Xiaoyu turned to the next page. Before reading, she glanced at the serious man beside her again.

For some reason, she always felt that Gu Fei really wanted her to spread her wings and fly high.

But she knew her own abilities, and coupled with class oppression, for someone like her who was not even familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, wasn't that just a foolish dream?

Read all the written records to Gu Fei.

Then she picked up the scroll and described the portrait to him in combination with the text.

When she saw a left hand with a scar painted on it next to each scroll, she thought of the hand she had seen in the carriage.

After thinking for a moment, she told Gu Fei about this.

"That man's hands looked very young. This case happened 20 years ago. I think it must be a coincidence that there was a scar on his hand."

Hearing this, Gu Fei thought for a moment.

The deep voice slowly said: "You can't draw any conclusions without seeing the whole picture. If you have any doubts, you can ask Li Wu."

Li Xiaoyu thought so too, and she nodded seriously.

"Yeah, that's what I thought too."

As for the portraits, Gu Fei did not rush Li Xiaoyu to start painting. Instead, she asked her to observe each painting carefully to see what other parts of the paintings had similarities besides the hands.

In fact, he had already discovered it, but he just didn't say it.

"Observe more on your own. I'm tired."

After saying that, he placed his left hand on the table and slowly stood up, thinking about how he had done him such a big favor.

Li Xiaoyu quickly stood up and rushed to help him.

As soon as her hand touched the man's shoulder, he brushed it away, "Instead of focusing on pleasing me, you should study the portrait more."

Indirectly remind her not to try to cut corners.

Li Xiaoyu knew it, so she withdrew her hand and puffed up her cheeks like a puffer fish.

She stared at the man's back as he disappeared out the door, exhaled heavily like blowing bubbles, blinked her eyelashes, pursed her lips and took a deep breath.

It's really strict.

She also understood that Gu Fei really wanted to teach her, so she put herself in the position of a newcomer.

Start focusing on research.

In the blink of an eye, it was getting dark.

Just as she was about to light the oil lamp to continue her research, a chirping voice came from outside: "The idiot is back again, the idiot is back again."

This sound pulled the woman back from her busy work, and she raised her head to look outside.

She saw the fat parrot flapping its wings, without even looking at her, and rushing into the room where she and Gu Fei slept.

She twisted her stiff neck, rubbed the back of her neck with her hand, tilted her head and stared at the door with a frown.

I pricked up my ears, but there was no sound coming from inside.

His eyes narrowed slightly and his gaze fell on the low threshold of the room. Many scenes of Guawazi and Gu Fei getting along emerged in his mind.

She bit her inner lip and looked toward the room again.

After a long time, he stretched himself, covered his mouth and yawned.

"That's all for today. It's time to cook."

I wrote down the progress, then put away the things on the table and went to the kitchen to work.

As soon as she left, the idiot started to report the situation to Gu Fei. After he finished reporting the important things, he slowly reported the things he thought were unimportant.

"What you want is on the way."

"I got it. I'll go out and have a rest." Gu Fei said calmly, leaning against the head of the bed, looking down and playing with the copper coins in his hand.

Before going out, the idiot tilted his little head and looked left and right at the ugly copper coin in his hand.

It seems that he can't understand why the owner would play with a copper coin.

It flew away by itself.

After dinner, Li Xiaoyu lay on the bed, with her hands behind her head, and told Gu Fei about her discovery.

"I found that the faces in each portrait seemed round or square, and each painter drew eyes differently, but in fact, those eyes were inexplicably similar."

Gu Fei asked: "For example?"

Li Xiaoyu kicked the quilt away, casually put his left leg on his right knee, crossed his legs, and replied seriously:

"The eyes are slightly round at the beginning, droopy at the end, and round in shape."

Each artist has his or her own style, but they all drew similarities, indicating that the murderer was most likely one person and the victim was very close to the murderer at the time.

Of course, this is just Li Xiaoyu's guess.

She had no experience in handling cases.

After hearing this, Gu Fei's expression did not change. He played with the index finger of his right hand with his left hand, as if he did not feel any pain. "That's all?"

Being able to discover all these in one hour is already a huge achievement.

Li Xiaoyu pursed his lips, glanced at him sideways, hesitated for a moment, and said, "There are still some places that are just guesses at the moment. I will tell you after I confirm them."

I saw him bending his index finger this way and that like a pervert.

She felt pain just looking at it, her eyelids twitched violently twice, she sat up and grabbed his left hand.

He whispered, "Your right hand is already in a terrible condition, stop torturing it."

Gu Fei didn't move and let her hold his wrist. After a long time, a cold laugh escaped from his throat.

"It's already useless, cut it down, okay?"

The cold smile was like the wind and snow in the wilderness in winter, chilling the listener to the bone.

Li Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly widened and fear suddenly rose in his eyes.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Gu Fei spoke again, his voice still as cold as before, "Okay?"

The three slightly gentle words made the woman shudder.

She sat cross-legged on the bed, staring at Gu Fei's face. When she looked up, the man was also looking at her.

Two lines of sight collided, one bright and one dark.

She stared straight into the man's eyes, which were shaped like willow leaves, full of charm and having seen all the prosperity in the world.

Thinking of what the master said, she subconsciously looked at his right hand.

The slender hand was as beautiful as white jade, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it on the surface. However, who would have thought that the tendons and bones from the wrist to the five fingers were broken.

I don’t know who is so cruel.

While she was thinking, the man, who had not waited for her answer for a long time, raised a self-deprecating smile at the corner of his mouth.

What on earth was he expecting...

He pulled his hand back, and Li Xiaoyu withdrew his thoughts, tightened his grip on his hand, and stared at his beautiful right hand with a serious look.

He said firmly, "Don't."
