Be in low spirits

"Hehe, but I... am actually Ji Huai's girlfriend." She felt embarrassed to say these words. Could it be that Ye's mother didn't understand?

"Mother." Yang Lin and Ye Fan came down the stairs.

"Oh, you're coming down. Your uncle said you can't go out. Look... this?" Ye's mother was also a little embarrassed. It was not right to let it go, and it was not right not to let it go.

"There are guards downstairs. I can't go out. Luoluo, how about you..." Ye Fan wanted her to stay at home

"Ah! I have an idea." She got up from the sofa, pulled him upstairs, and said, "You can dress up as a woman! I'll help you put on makeup and dress up."

"No." He refused righteously.

"Hey, hurry up, isn't your mother the only one who can come and go freely here? We still have to look for Yaoer." She pulled people to find his mother's room, completely unaware that she was acting coquettishly towards him.

"But... I'm a grown man..." He was still very hesitant. How could such a grown man dress up as a woman?

"It's okay for grown men, come on, where is your mother's room?" She pulled people to check room by room.

"On the first floor." He seemed unable to refuse her.

She went to Ye's mother's room to choose clothes for him and asked him to change into. He was indeed too tall, and it was really ugly to wear women's clothes. She turned her head away and laughed, and her whole body was shaking.

"I told you no, stop laughing." He felt embarrassed and his ears turned red.

"Okay, okay, don't laugh, don't laugh." When she turned around and saw his look, she couldn't help laughing. Brother Yang Lin and Ye's mother were also attracted by the laughter and pushed the door open.

Seeing Ye Fan wearing women's clothes, the two laughed loudly.

The three people surrounded him and laughed. He was even more reluctant to go out wearing this outfit and wanted to go back and take it off.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't take it off. Now that you've put it on, just wear it properly. If you're like this, I won't put makeup on you. Just wear a hat." Gu Jinluo quickly stopped him.

"No, the guards will be able to see it at a glance." He looked at the leg hair on his calves. Who would be so stupid as not to see it?

She was also unconsciously attracted by his leg hair and laughed out loud again.

He changed it back in shame and anger, and Ye's mother and Yang Lin almost laughed to death.

Gu Jinluo looked at the surroundings and said to Yang Lin, "Why don't you bring Yao'er over here so we can have some tea and chat?"

"Sure, I'll ask the servants to prepare food for you. Aunt Feng, come." Mother Ye called the servants to prepare tea and snacks for them.

Seeing Ye's mother walk away, she said to Yang Lin again: "I have a plan, but it may hurt Yao'er. Bring her here and we can discuss it together."

"What plan?" Yang Lin was curious.

"Bring Yaoer here and we'll discuss it together." She advised him to go and pick her up.

Ye Fan changed his clothes and came out. Seeing that Yang Lin was not there, he asked, "Why are you the only one left?"

"You can't go out, so he has to bring Yaoer over, and the three of them will accompany you together." She stood at the door of the room, looking outside.

He couldn't help but sigh as he approached her, thinking back to the night when he said he wanted to marry her but his uncle refused to agree. "My uncle asked me to go to Shengze in two days." He stood behind her and spoke.

"Shengze? What are you going to Shengze for?" She turned around, not expecting him to be so close to her. She wanted to take a step back and almost sprained her ankle. Fortunately, Ye Fan pulled her into his arms.

"I'm going to Shengze to take back the military power. I don't know when I can come back." He hugged her and refused to let go, with his chin resting on her hair.

"You... just talk, why are you still..." She couldn't struggle free and could only question him verbally. Before she could finish her words, his mother came in from outside and he was embarrassed to let go of the person in his arms.

Seeing the expressions of the two people, Ye's mother knew that she came at the wrong time, so she had to stand at the door and said, "I asked Feng's mother to prepare some refreshments in the backyard. You can chat there later. No one will disturb you."

Gu Jinluo blushed a little, lowered her head, touched her cheek with her hand, turned around and walked to the backyard. Ye Fan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and followed behind him.

"The troops stationed in Shengze have always been under the jurisdiction of the Li family. Now I let you take on this task. It's just as the rumors say, you are the most valued among the children of this aristocratic family." She took out a fan and shook it pretentiously.

"Although my uncle has detained the chief commanders of the Li, Su and Pei families, it is not easy to get their troops to submit to Jinghua." He sat down in the pavilion in the backyard and poured himself a cup of tea.

Gu Jinluo also sat down in the backyard. The tea and snacks were much more exquisite than those in her shopping mall. Although he was a big shot in politics, his home was in pure Chinese style.

"Then let's talk about it together." She closed the fan, put it on the stone table with a "pop", picked up the cakes on the table and tasted them.

"Luoluo...marriage..." He didn't get the marriage, and he didn't know how to explain it to her.

"I know, but I didn't expect you to really say it. No one is so impulsive. I know I'll be rejected without even thinking." After finishing the cakes, she took a sip of tea. Sure enough, there was nothing bad in the Ye Mansion.

"But...if you don't tell me, I won't be willing." He felt very disappointed. His marriage proposal was rejected and he had to go to Shengze in two days. He didn't know when he would see the person in front of him again. If the Gu family insisted on her marrying into the Yang family, wouldn't he miss it?

"Ye Xingzhi, if you really want to, I will definitely wait for you to come back."

If he is sincere, there is no harm in waiting.

"With your words, I will go and come back quickly." He held her hand and looked at the person in front of him affectionately.

"Hehe, I'm not a child. How can I be as impulsive as you?" She pulled her hand back and turned her head away, embarrassed to look at him.

"Luoluo!" Yao'er ran towards the pavilion from a distance. She also stood up and waved to greet her.

"What do you want to discuss?" Yaoer sat down and spoke to her.

"Come, according to my father and General Yang, the Yang and Gu families are going to get married. But you know, Yang Lin likes you, so I plan to take you with me, which can be regarded as a win-win situation." Although it is still in the matchmaking stage, it is hard to say when the marriage will be put on the agenda.

"Ji Huai, can't you ask the old man to reject this marriage?" Hearing her talking about the marriage between the Yang and Gu families, Ye Fan felt very uncomfortable, as if he was being eaten away by ants.

"I can't refuse!" Gu Jinluo stood up and retorted, "I can still bring Yao'er with me so that they can meet and go in and out of the Yang family. If it were someone else, wouldn't this pair of lovers be separated?"

"Luoluo!" Su Yaoer felt shy when hearing the words "little lover".

"What about us? You just said you would wait for me to come back, and now you agree to start dating him!" Ye Fan was still unsure of her sincerity, even though she had just said it very confidently.

"You! I'm helping others and doing good things. Why are you jealous?"

"But what status does Yao'er have to stay with you?" Yang Lin also wanted to reject this marriage and be with Yao'er openly.

"I just want to wrong Yao'er. To others, I can only say that she is my girl."

They both looked at Yao'er, who didn't know how to respond. Only Ye Fan was very angry. "What happens after this? Will the old man agree to reject the marriage?"

"These are just superficial efforts. Even if the marriage cannot be rejected, it can be regarded as helping them. With our current status, we don't have any say, but if we stand in front of a certain person, it will be fine." She looked at Ye Fan. Since the elders in the family obeyed others under pressure, then they would stand in front of that person.

"What do you mean?" Ye Fan roughly guessed what she meant, but this was too difficult.

"What I mean is that if Yang Lin asks to go to Shengze with you, Yao'er and I can go with you and give you advice on how to take back the military power!" She didn't want to get involved in political affairs and only knew how to fight for her freedom.

"Do you want to go to Shengze with me?" Ye Fan would summarize.

"The four of us are going to Shengze together to complete your uncle's mission," she corrected.

"Although this is a good idea, will your father and others agree?" Yang Lin felt that this was somewhat risky.

"You are here. Since it is an arranged marriage, it is normal to have such a process to cultivate feelings." She thought it would be nice to go to Shengze to have some fun.

"Why do you want to cultivate feelings with him? You need to cultivate feelings with me." Ye Fan didn't want her to be involved with Yang Lin at all.

"If you continue like this, I'll go back." Gu Jinluo was speechless. This man just suffered a setback, but he wanted to argue with her.
