"It’s not about staying; I just let her sleep for a while, and when she wakes up, send her away," Xun Hui pleaded with a desiring face.
"I’ll follow eldest sister’s lead," Erni hurriedly leaned towards Yang Ruxin, although she also felt sorry for Yang Ruyu just now, but today’s deep impressions made her realize that eldest sister was more reliable,
Yang Ruxin, after all, did not forcibly lift the person up because she did not want to have an outright falling out with Xun Hui, as that might make Xun Hui even more rebellious. Honestly, dealing with such a mother felt more troublesome than taking care of a child.
However, she walked to the front of the sleeping platform and looked down at Yang Ruyu.
Yang Ruyu, lying down, instantly tensed up; she could feel the other’s menacing gaze, and she was truly afraid of this cousin.
Though a blanket covered her, Yang Ruxin still noticed the other’s odd behavior, and saw the eyeballs under those closed eyelids move, clearly pretending to be asleep. She couldn’t help but laugh slightly, "Yang Ruyu, I don’t know what game you’re playing, but remember, don’t provoke me, or else, I’ll definitely make you regret being born into this world. Don’t believe me? Just try..."
Xun Hui, standing behind her, wore a disapproving expression, wanting to say something, but was pulled back by Sanni, and thus she closed her mouth.
After saying her piece, Yang Ruxin turned to glance at Xun Hui, then stormed off angrily to the Gu Family.
Xun Hui heaved a sigh of relief; she had been scared just now, for Xinxin’s gaze was truly terrifying.
Yang Ruyu on the bed also finally relaxed; she had been worried that Yang Ruxin would really lay hands on her and drag her out. If that happened, she would have injured herself for nothing.
Now, the first step was at least to earn Xun Hui’s pity; next, she needed to make the younger siblings like her. Erni wasn’t a worry, just a softie like Xun Hui, but the tough nut was Sanni - that shrewd girl. Nevertheless, Yang Ruyu was confident she could win their affection.
Of course, today Yang Ruyu had another idea: she wanted to hook Fang Tianze, the county magistrate’s son. If she could secure him, becoming the future mistress of the Fang Family wouldn’t be too shabby either.
Having decided on her plan, Yang Ruyu actually fell asleep. She was genuinely tired after walking back from town and purposely falling several times.
After soaking in a medicine bath, Gu Qingheng was asleep. Yang Ruxin sat in a chair, leaning on the edge of the sleeping platform, watching him. She noticed how smooth his skin was, his face completely free of blemishes. She did, however, spot a red mole the size of a rice grain under his chin and smiled, counting it as a mark. Thinking this, she reached out to touch it lightly.
"Are you feeling better now?" But her hand was suddenly grasped, and the man who was previously asleep had now opened his eyes. His voice rasped with sleepiness, infuriatingly alluring.
"How did you know I was in a bad mood?" Yang Ruxin stared infatuated at the pink flush on Gu Qingheng’s face.
"Would you believe me if I told you I have a psychic sense of you?" Gu Qingheng shifted slightly to the side, "Come up..."
Yang Ruxin really lay down next to him, "Then do you know why I’m in a bad mood?"
"Shh, no more talking," Gu Qingheng gently kissed Yang Ruxin’s forehead, "Close your eyes and sleep. When you wake up, you’ll find that there’s nothing that Xinxin can’t get through..."
Yang Ruxin smiled, then truly rested her head on Gu Qingheng’s shoulder and closed her eyes.
