I was Idle and Cool

Chapter 77: Tentative

Don't understand the style?

There is still a woman in the world who dares to say such a thing in front of a man, is she really not afraid of flashing her tongue?

Gu Juefei really wanted to let her know what "resolving style" was, but the current situation and the situation of the two really made him secretly annoyed.

After looking at Lu Jinxi for a long time, he put down the medicine bowl, and changed the subject lightly and coldly: "What did the Grand Master tell you?"

Another sentence of "Master Taishi", Lu Jinxi could naturally hear the indifference and alienation in it. Thinking about it, Gu Chengqian really didn't say anything to her.

"After talking about the past, I asked me what I thought of you. After that, Chen Fan came and called me away. So I didn't say a few words, it was just gossip."

She looked at Gu Juefei's expression, and she was still a little curious about what happened between him and Gu Chengqian. And because Gu Juefei refused to let her eat two more bites, she felt bored in her heart, so she had to pretend to be a regular, dignified and graceful sitting on the chair by the window.

"What do I look at? You seem to be very reluctant for me to talk to Master Taishi together? Otherwise, why would I go to see the old Taishi on the front foot, and you would invite someone on the back foot?"

"That old man doesn't want to fulfill my wish, and thinks that I am not worthy of you, so how can I let you stay longer?"

That being said, it's extremely normal.

If Gu Juefei didn't know the reason and basis of this, maybe he would have been deceived by his waste.

Now that Lu Jinxi heard it, he felt that he could not find the slightest flaw.

But for people like them, the more perfect, the more reasonable, the less flawed it is, the more problematic it is.

It's just that she can't think of where the problem is.

Thinking so, she simply put it down.

She lowered her eyebrows and saw that there was still a small plate of honey on the coffee table, she brought it, picked one up and ate it herself, and asked, "I can't see that, Young Master Gu also needs candied fruit to drink medicine. It was terrifying.”

"Life is already hard enough, do you have to take medicine?"

Gu Juefei said this from the bottom of his heart, but he said it in a joking tone, and he had no problem with Lu Jinxi taking away his plate of candied fruit.

If someone else came to listen to what he said, they would definitely not believe it.

After all, Young Master Gu has a great reputation, even if he has been in Xue Cui Ding for six years, he is still in full swing when he comes back. Where can ordinary people compare?

But hearing these words in Lu Jinxi's ears, there was a different kind of taste.

The candied fruit on the tip of the tongue, with the sweetness and sourness of the fruit, slowly melted in the mouth.

Lu Jinxi lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, but the smile on her lips slowly twitched, as if she wanted to say something, but before she could speak, she felt that something was moving beside her feet.

"Um?"

She was slightly surprised and looked down for a while.

It was a snow-white puppy.

The body is small and fluffy, and it can be seen that he was born not long ago, and he is still full of milk. He got out of nowhere, huddled under the chair, and bumped into Lu Jinxi's feet.

The two small front paws pressed against the corner of her skirt that fell to the ground.

"Where did this come from?"

Seeing this, Lu Jinxi only thought that it was rather naive, so he put down the candied fruit plate, and instead leaned over and picked up the puppy.

"Did you raise it?"

"Woooo..."

The puppy was indeed still small. He was still a little uneasy when he was picked up by a stranger. He fluttered his front paws and tried to struggle, but there were soft pads under the paws, and it didn't hurt or itch on Lu Jinxi's hands.

She doesn't keep pets very much, but she was also a little interested when she saw such a fluffy group, so she put it on her lap and stroked its little head with her hands.

After a while, the little guy's dissatisfied whimper became more comfortable.

Gu Juefei watched coldly from the side, and didn't know why, but he felt that this scene was a little annoying, so he just picked up a candied fruit on the table and put it in his mouth.

"I picked it up on the road a while ago. Seeing that it was pitiful, I brought it back and raised it for two days."

No wonder.

In addition to the snow-white coat, this puppy doesn't look like a precious breed. However, Gu Juefei's answer was somewhat unexpected to Lu Jinxi.

She rubbed the furry dog's head under her hands, and slumped into the chair lazily, but her rather glamorous eyes flew obliquely, and her eyes fell on the person next to her.

"I didn't know that Young Master Gu was such a soft-hearted person."

There is a bit of weird spying and irony in these words.

Gu Juefei could hear it and knew that someone like Lu Jinxi should be able to understand him, but this sentence somehow reminded him of Gu Chengqian and Gu Chengqian's evaluation of him.

In my heart, it was as if I had been stabbed by a thorn.

He lowered his eyes and smiled lightly: "You're right, it's just a puppy, just keep it for fun."

"I said that to you, are you upset?"

Lu Jinxi was keenly aware of the ups and downs and changes in his emotions, but felt that today's Gu Juefei was very different from the past.

"The thousand-year-old painted skin demon won't get angry because of this idea. It seems that the eldest son has something in his heart."

"You don't know anything about it, don't bother to ask about it."

It was impossible for Gu Juefei to tell her the reason.

Lu Jinxi wasn't annoyed, and looked like a saint on the surface: "Then I won't ask. But your puppy is really cute, did you name it?"

"..."

Gu Juefei's eyelids twitched, and the hand he stretched out to the candied fruit plate stiffened for a moment. After a long time, or a moment, he replied calmly: "I haven't woken up yet."

"Yes?"

I always felt that there was something hidden in his small moment of silence.

This thought flashed across Lu Jinxi's mind, but was swept away by the new idea in his mind: "I see that your puppy's coat is so good, it doesn't take a lot of thought to name them, if you think it's troublesome, call them small. Bai Dabai, attracting wealth and treasures, both are successful and auspicious. If the eldest son doesn't dislike it, I can help you get one?"

help him get a...

Gu Juefei was choked by her words, and almost didn't catch his breath. When he remembered the name he gave the puppy, his face was a little ugly, and he just replied her three words bluntly: "I dislike it."

Lu Jinxi was stunned.

Gu Juefei's answer was really not what she expected at all. Gu Juefei, who felt that today's him was really wrong at one time, and Gu Juefei, who felt so wrong at the same time, had a special charm that attracted people to explore.

How did she feel that this person seemed poisonous?

"Isn't it just to name the puppy..."

Why are you suddenly angry?

Lu Jinxi hugged the little white dog, complaining suspiciously, while rubbing the puppy's neck, so comfortable that it hummed.

Gu Juefei saw it, and even if he was not angry at first, now he saw it, and it was unknown.

He pressed it down without being polite at all, got up directly, reached out his hand and picked up the puppy from Lu Jinxi's arms, put it back on the ground, and said, "Although it's because of Xue Chi, Madam is married. It is inconvenient to stay here for a long time. Regarding the matter of Young Master Ling, I feel that I should do my best, and if there is any change, I will revise the book to report. It is not early, please go back early."

Is this starting to drive people away?

Lu Jinxi really dropped his glasses and couldn't help but wonder, "Why are you being so unreasonable today?"

The puppy left Lu Jinxi's arms, and the boss was dissatisfied for a while, and he went to Lu Jinxi's side again after landing.

Gu Juefei stretched out his feet and stopped him.

Looking up, a pair of deep pupils stared at Lu Jinxi, smiling flawlessly: "I am very reasonable in front of others, after all, Madam knows what you and I are all about. But now, Madam is not used to seeing me like this, You don't have to force yourself."

"..."

At this moment, the corner of Lu Jinxi's eyes jumped, and he suddenly felt the urge to throw all the candied fruit on the table on Gu Juefei's body.

This stuff is really fearless!

She stared at him for a long time, but finally she couldn't hold back, she gritted her teeth, and said without a smile, "Don't you just rely on me to like you and want to sleep with you?"

"It's good that Madam has something in her heart."

For some reason, he wasn't very happy before, but after hearing Lu Jinxi's words, he laughed again. There was a bit of warmth on Qing Jun's face, as if the peach blossoms bloomed all over the mountains in March, which was very dazzling.

Lu Jinxi was lost for a moment.

But Gu Juefei's next sentence brought her back to reality: "So, let's ask your wife to come back first today. Chen Fan - see off!"

"you!"

Lu Jinxi was choked with anger by him, and when he saw his smiling face, his heart ached. But on second thought, it is really not suitable to stay for too long.

As Gu Juefei said, the future is long.

At the moment, she is still in the Grand Master's Mansion, and her foundation is not very deep. Even if she didn't care, she still had to see the reaction from the Grand Master's Mansion, not to mention the general's mansion.

No matter what, you can't be too hasty right now.

Everything, or the same sentence: be patient.

After thinking about it like this, the somewhat annoyed expression on Lu Jinxi's face took it back and returned to her original, somewhat inhuman appearance.

"Sure, what Eldest Young Master Gu said is reasonable, so I'll have a chance to talk about it another day."

Saying that, she really didn't take a moment to remember, she bowed slightly and said goodbye. That free-spirited and dignified appearance seemed like the person who had done all kinds of outrageous behaviors and made people uneasy before, and it had nothing to do with her.

Gu Juefei was standing by the window, watching her turn and go downstairs without looking back. For a while, she felt a little lost and wistful, and there was a strange absurdity.

How could he be such a person, such an identity...

How could he just fall in love with her and still be unwilling to let go?

In the days to come, I am afraid that I will have to suffer.

Gu Juefei sighed slowly, and looked down to see the puppy biting on the corner of his shirt, looking at him as if to please him. Recalling the previous scene where this little thing was intimate with Lu Jinxi, he was really annoyed.

Why did he suddenly become obsessed and gave this pup his own name?

I'm afraid it will make people laugh out loud.

Who would have thought that Gu Juefei's dog was also called Gu Juefei?

He was really helpless, but when he thought about the state of mind that he named the puppy, he felt desolate.

Just looking down at it like this, Gu Juefei finally couldn't help sighing and scolded: "It's really not as good as a dog. Your life is more comfortable than me."

The puppy, also named "Gu Juefei", couldn't understand what he was talking about, and still just whined twice.

Gu Juefei was here, but suddenly he didn't have the mind to say anything else.

Last night, he suddenly tore his face with Gu Chengqian, I'm afraid that the things that follow will not be as easy as he thought...

Although the Gu family is big, in the end, he can only rely on himself.

future.

Everything is unknown.

With a heavy heart, Gu Juefei stood quietly upstairs for a long time, and through the window, he watched Lu Jinxi go downstairs and walk away, gradually disappearing into the corridors of the Grand Master's Mansion, disappearing.

Lu Jinxi's heart is not particularly calm.

She went downstairs, but couldn't see anything on her face, she only went down to have a few words with Meng Ji, a scholar in Tao'an, and told Xue Chi to be well here, and then she left the Taishi Mansion with others. .

Just waiting for the carriage and all the way back to the General's Mansion, when she recalled today, those suppressed thoughts popped up again.

Gu Juefei is of the same kind, there is no doubt about this.

Excellent appearance, amazing talent, and a life that no one can envy, not to mention the feeling of spring breeze blowing his face when he treats people and things.

She is no exception.

It's just that her admirer is much more special than others.

One is because of identity, and the other is because of temperament.

Even if Gu Juefei had seen many women in the past, she would definitely not be able to find a second one.

Originally, she thought that it should be easy to get a hold of Gu Juefei. After all, a beautiful woman would not refuse even a normal man.

But who would have thought that she underestimated Gu Juefei's "conduct".

It was the first time in the Yuewei Pavilion, and the second time in his attic today. Both times, he actually showed the meaning of "I want to marry more than sleeping", and it didn't look like a fake.

This is embarrassing...

Moreover, what made Lu Jinxi even more uncomfortable might be how she felt about Gu Juefei today.

When Gu Juefei only painted skin foxes, she treated people and things without any leakage. Although she liked it, she really wanted to test him and expose him, but she didn't expect today—

Gu Juefei, who is not in a good mood, Gu Juefei, who has a needle with thorns, Gu Juefei, who choked her speechless, and Gu Juefei, who occasionally dazzles with a smile...

Not only did she not feel unhappy, she even found it particularly interesting, and wanted to continue to look down, wondering how he would react.

It's not a good sign for her.

It's like he was in the attic and suddenly bit his ear...

Maybe Gu Juefei felt that she did it on purpose, but only she understood in her heart that at that moment, she really couldn't help it, and it was a ghost.

The more I think about it, the more I feel bad...

"This guy, shouldn't he deliberately trick me?"

Lu Jinxi pondered, and couldn't help but muttered, but after thinking about it, he felt that it shouldn't be like that.

"My way of doing things is similar to his. If it is his routine, there is no reason to see the slightest clue..."

"Ma'am, ma'am?"

The egret next to her only listened to her mumbling while leaning on the lead pillow, but she couldn't quite hear what she was talking about, so she couldn't help shouting twice.

Lu Jinxi came back to his senses, only waved his hand, and said "it's okay", but quickly cleared out the messy thoughts just now.

In the end, she is only interested in Gu Juefei at the moment, and she doesn't think that she will get into a situation where she is deeply immersed in mud and unable to extricate herself.

After all, she actually sees through these so-called love and affection.

Nothing more than that.

It's probably not a big chance for her to stumble on this.

So soon, Lu Jinxi had sorted out his thoughts.

After a while, the General's Mansion arrived.

The driver drove the car into the side door, the maid brought the footstool, Lu Jinxi took the egret's hand, got out of the car, and went all the way back to the east courtyard.

The affairs in the house were almost done in the morning, and now that there is still a long time before sunset, she carefully sorted out the affairs in her hands.

The wife of the house, Mrs. Sun, has nothing to do with her, and she doesn't need to worry about it; the elder sister-in-law, Mrs. He, who is a widow, suffered a lot last time, and now she doesn't bother.

A few children here have dealt with it a while ago, and they have also saved a lot of worry.

Li Jie'er has always been well-behaved, and Lang Jie'er has become a lot more sensible after the last time, not to mention Xue Chi, who has had great luck and worshipped Gu Juefei as her teacher, and the whole capital envied him.

It's just that Xue Chi has been pestering her recently to talk about the things about General Xue Kuang, but it makes her a little helpless. Fortunately, Xue Kuang had already borrowed the files of Xue Kuang's many battles from Princess Yongning's side, which solved the urgent need for a while.

When she came back today, she thought that Xue Chi would come back later, and she would definitely be pestering her to tell stories, so she went into the study early, turned over the files, and checked carefully to see if there were any stories that could be related to the "Three Kingdoms". The story is right.

It's just that the current Lu Jinxi is not the same as in the past, only putting all the legendary stories on Xue Kuang's body.

Zhuge Liang captured Meng Huo seven times, and Nayezha escaped from Xue Kuang six times. Although the eight poles could not reach one piece, doubts arose in her heart.

Moreover, taking 10,000 steps back and thinking: although she is not ready to remarry, she also does not intend to live a life with few desires.

If Xue Chi blindly piled up the name of his father, Xue Kuang, the God of War in Xue Chi's heart, and raised his longing and adoration for his father too much, it would be himself who would have a hard time.

Therefore, today's Lu Jinxi is still looking for stories from these files, but he is looking for the names of other generals who have meritorious service.

for example……

Fang Shaoxing.

This young general in white robe is young, arrogant, and has a bit of evil spirit, and he is not very polite to himself. Lu Jinxi didn't like him very much in his heart, but when he looked at the file carefully, he found that this man was really a good hand in war.

He has only been by Xue Kuang's side for less than two years, but his achievements can be compared with Liu Jin, the current admiral of the Nine Sects.

No wonder the much older Liu Jin treated him like a brother.

Although he had prejudice against this man, Lu Jinxi really couldn't turn a blind eye to such an impressive feat.

After all, there is something of a legend about this man.

So, she compared the dossier, the searcher's own mind in the story of "Three Kingdoms", and listed one by one on the paper.

So unknowingly, I wrote the outline of three or five stories, and the sun outside was gradually slanting.

The golden red light shines through the snow-white window paper, which is quite bright.

When Lu Jinxi raised his head and saw it, he put the pen down, stretched out, and called out, "Egret."

"lady."

The egret was embroidering beside the table as usual, waiting to be dispatched. Hearing the voice, he put down the needle and thread in his hand and got up.

"Would you like a cup of tea?"

"No," Lu Jinxi waved his hand, "I can see that it's not too early. The carriage to pick up my brother should go to the Grand Master's Mansion, right? Let's find out when we will be back."

"Yes."

After all, Xue Chi was going to school on the first day, so Qingque went with him. When he was familiar with it, he would simply let the book boy follow him. So today, the egret is still serving in the house.

She listened to the words and went hurriedly.

Lu Jinxi was not in a hurry at all. He expected Xue Chi to be very stable in the Taishi's mansion, so he just casually rolled up the two pages of rice paper with a lot of ink on the table, left the study, and went back to the Westinghouse.

The house should be furnished as usual.

When the maids saw her coming, they hurriedly prepared tea and brought it to her.

Lu Jinxi took a seat on the edge of the heated kang, just waiting for Xue Chi to come back and tell them a few stories.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she sat down and put the two pages of rice paper on the desk, she saw another thing on it.

"Anti-Book".

That old book that she borrowed from Xue Chi and only turned two pages this morning.

On one of the pages in the middle, there is also a corner of the light cyan flower paper sprinkled with gold.

This is what she put in casually this morning.

Lu Jinxi was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand to open it, which was the page where Huajian was.

Exactly what I saw this morning:
