Chapter 179 Young master wants to lock me up?

  Gu Xiyan and Zhou Mu were sitting in the carriage. She was very excited at first, but after a while she realized that Zhou Mu was very quiet today.

  Although he is not usually a talkative person, he is not indifferent in front of her.

   Gu Xiyan wondered to himself, could it be that he was angry because he was left out in the cold?

  She took the initiative to approach him, and asked with concern: "Young Master, do you have something on your mind?"

   Zhou Mu's face was hidden in the darkness, a little unpredictable, she met his deep and charming eyes, feeling a little nervous for no reason.

   Could it be that he saw something?

"I'm a little curious about who the master in Jixianglou is." Zhou Mu opened his lips indifferently: "Just now I did some calculations, and Jixianglou earned more than a hundred thousand taels of silver just for this auction tonight. This kind of ability astounds me.”

  Gu Xiyan's heart skipped a beat, and she tentatively said: "The shopkeeper Wu is indeed capable. In the past two years, I heard that he is the one who keeps the Jixiang Building in order."

  Even if Zhou Mu went to investigate, she probably wouldn't be able to find out that she was the shopkeeper behind Jixianglou, right?

   After all, the shopkeeper of Jixianglou is Wu Tong himself, and the person who has friendship with Wu Tong is his mother, and no matter how hard he can find out about her.

  As long as she is a fiancée with him now, even if he knows that she is behind the scenes, it shouldn't be a big deal.

"The shopkeeper Wu is more like an errand runner. I thought someone was planning behind Wu Tong. I want to find out the real identity of that person." Zhou Mu suddenly approached Gu Xiyan, very close to her, and his hot breath seemed to be Spray it all over her face.

  Gu Xiyan's heartbeat almost stopped, she held her breath, and she didn't know whether her nervousness was because he was too close, or because of what he said.

  She pretended to be curious and asked, "Why would you waste your time on such a small person? If someone behind Wu Tong makes a plan and is found out by you, what will you do?"

"If there is such a person, we need to take good care of it. If such a person can't make good use of it, and someone with a heart takes advantage of it, it will definitely become a disaster in the future." Zhou Mu endured it for a long time, but finally couldn't hold it back. She touched Gu Xiyan's soft and boneless little hands.

  He had been fighting psychologically just now, feeling that he wasn't married yet and shouldn't be too aggressive, but he still couldn't help but want to get close to her.

  Gu Xiyan's attention was all on the word "care", she smiled nonchalantly and asked: "What do you mean by taking care of it, does the young master want to arrest that person?"

   Zhou Mu laughed when he heard the words: "It's not bad."

  Gu Xiyan's whole body is not well. She looked down and found that he was holding her hand. She was immediately annoyed and pulled back forcefully.

  He wanted to lock her up so she wouldn't let him touch her.

   "You clearly lured Princess Baohe and Princess Yongjia to bid on purpose today, why?" Zhou Mu looked at Gu Xiyan's little hidden hand, her fingers itched slightly, but she didn't do it again.

  Gu Xiyan felt relieved, it turned out that he suspected this, so she was relieved.

"I saw that Princess Baohe and Princess Yongjia were rich and powerful, and I thought they didn't mind spending more money, so I booed along. Usually when I go to Jixianglou, shopkeeper Wu makes me feel at home. I just help Jixiang by the way. Xianglou, the atmosphere is hot." Gu Xiyan replied with a smile, and found a good reason to prevaricate.

  This is also true, but she hides part of the truth.

   "Jixiang Building is not simple, you should avoid dealing with shopkeeper Wu." Zhou Mu's eyes were unpredictable.

  It's good that it's as simple as she said, he was afraid that this girl would hide something from him. He still felt that the relationship between this girl and Wu Tong was not that simple.

   "The young master started to discipline me before we got married? I had a great time today, and I plan to go tomorrow." Gu Xiyan replied with a smile on her face.

   Zhou Mu: …

  He didn't want to discipline her, but he was afraid that she would be used by others without knowing it. She is only sixteen years old, she is usually raised in a deep boudoir, rarely goes out, and does not understand the sinister nature of the human heart.

  Intuition told him that Jixianglou is not easy.

   A restaurant that can earn more than 100,000 taels in a day is outrageous after all, which made him subconsciously connect with the former behind-the-scenes man who raised the price of charcoal.

   "I don't want to discipline you, but I'm afraid that you will meet bad people. Knowing people, knowing their faces, but not their hearts, some people seem harmless on the surface, but in fact they are full of bad things..."

  Zhou Mu said a long list, and found that Gu Xiyan was far away from him, apparently unwilling to listen to his lectures.

  He laughed helplessly, this girl was actually a bit rebellious, and she seemed to be quite different from the well-behaved girl he thought.

   "Girl, do you dislike me?" Zhou Mu moved to Gu Xiyan's side with a soft voice, afraid of offending her.

  Gu Xiyan thought to himself that he insinuated that she was harmless on the surface, but she was full of bad things, how could she be happy?

   "Xiyan?" Zhou Mu's voice got closer.

  Gu Xiyan didn't move away any further this time, she changed the subject and said, "What do you like to eat, Young Master, next time I will make it for you."

  Speaking of which, except for the "Xuelihuang" which was stolen from Su Ho, the menu for today's bidding is all from a long-lost cookbook, which was accidentally obtained by Qi Zhiyuan in his previous life.

   This time she was eager to make money, so she thought of this method to try.

  At the beginning, she was prepared for the worst. If she could earn 50,000 taels in two days, it would be considered a success. Today, because the three Zhao Wangs came, they gave her 100,000 taels for nothing. This was a surprise.

  She planned to stop the auction that was originally scheduled at noon tomorrow, and there will be another auction in the evening, and this time the food festival will come to an end.

   "You don't need to cook, as Nanny Yin is here, just let her do it." Zhou Mu just didn't say that her hands are so beautiful, what a pity it is to go to the kitchen to do heavy work?

  Gu Xiyan glared at Zhou Mu, thinking that this man is quite bored, isn't it her kindness that she washes his hands and makes soup for him?

   "Are you really going to Jixianglou tomorrow?" Zhou Mu asked the question again.

  Gu Xiyan nodded without hesitation: "Yes, sir, is it possible that you want to lock me up?"

   Zhou Mu was confused when he heard this: "Do I look like such a scary person?"

  Gu Xiyan thought to herself, didn't he just say that he wanted to lock her up? If one day he finds out that she is the behind-the-scenes shopkeeper of Jixianglou, will he really send her to the yamen...

   No, she is doing business seriously, so he has no reason to shut her down.

  Furthermore, she earns money so that she can deal with Zhou Xing in the future. The common enemy of Zhou Mu and her is Zhou Xing, and the two of them are on the same boat.

"I was just joking." Gu Xiyan said as she leaned closer to Zhou Mu, and said softly, "Actually, I have a little friendship with shopkeeper Wu, he is a very good person, even if it is really like what the young master said, Wu There is someone behind the shopkeeper, so this person must be good..."

   "Don't be in a hurry to make a decision whether it's good or bad. You always have to be careful. A businessman who can earn one hundred thousand taels a day must be a profiteer." Zhou Mu interrupted Gu Xiyan's words.

  【Small Theater for Couples in Qishi】:

  Xi Yan: Someone said they were going to lock me up.

  Zhou·someone·Mu: Shut it up and pamper you every night...

  Xi Yan:…
