Su Yan turned her gaze towards Gu Ruoyun. She grabbed his collar and questioned, “Did you massage my legs on the first day of my martial arts training?”
It turned out that he had been lying to her since then.
Su Yan tried her best to make herself look fierce, but she looked like a white rabbit trying to crawl into the big bad wolf’s mouth.
Gu Ruoyun held Su Yan’s hand and said, “I just couldn’t bear to see my wife being so tired.”
Su Yan paused and released her hand in embarrassment, “Oh.”
Gu Ruoyun smiled and patted her head.
Su Yan tapped his hand and said, “I’m not a child anymore, don’t keep patting my head.”
Gu Ruoyun stared at Su Yan with his widened eyes. He said in a deep voice, “You’re indeed not a child anymore.”
Su Yan did not understand what Gu Ruoyun meant.
A servant suddenly came to report that Gu Lingyu was here.
Su Yan raised her brows. She did not expect him to come again.
Gu Lingyu’s visit interrupted them and ended the conversation.
Gu Ruoyun bit Su Yan’s hand. He only used his teeth to grind gently without biting too hard.
Even so, several red marks appeared on Su Yan’s hand.
Su Yan let out a soft cry, “What are you doing?”
Gu Ruoyun spoke into Su Yan’s ear indifferently, “You had a bad taste in the past, my wife.”
Su Yan thought for a moment before she caught Gu Ruoyun’s meaning.
She punched the back of his head, what a jealous man.
Both of them walked to the living room. Gu Lingyu who acted extremely arrogant before dared not even sit down this time.
Su Yan was surprised and took a few more glances.
The jealous man pulled Su Yan into his arms and blocked her view.
The corner of Su Yan’s lips twitched a little.
Gu Lingyu looked at the couple acting intimately and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Previously, Su Yan only had eyes for him.
Despite being disdainful, Gu Lingyu had mixed feelings when he suddenly saw Su Yan’s love for another person.
Gu Ruoyun asked directly, “What is it?”
Gu Lingyu remained silent for a moment. Then, he took out the Commander’s Seal reluctantly. He placed it on the table, returning it to Gu Ruoyun.
Gu Ruoyun did not take it. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Lingyu, “Didn’t I give this Commander’s Seal to you? What are you doing?”
Gu Lingyu quickly smiled apologetically, “This Commander’s Seal has always belonged to you, uncle. At that time, you were unconscious, so the Emperor asked me to replace you temporarily.”
Gu Ruoyun replied with an “Oh”, then he continued, “But I feel that it’s time for me to step down. It’s better to give young people a chance. There’s no need to return this Commander’s Seal.”
Gu Ruoyun spoke calmly as if he had given up the mortal world.
Gu Lingyu became anxious and said, “Uncle, you can’t step down. If you do, nobody in the Imperial Court could replace you.”
“You’re the main support of the entire Imperial Court. If you step down, we will be in danger. Do you want our people to suffer from the war and become homeless?”
Gu Ruoyun smiled and held Su Yan’s little hand. He replied, “That’s too harsh. I’m tired, it’s time for me to step down.”
He gave An Yi a glanced and said, “Keep the Commander’s Seal. Send the guest out.”
Gu Lingyu panicked. He begged, “Uncle, you can’t do this. Don’t you know that there’s an enemy attack at the border? The situation is critical.”
Gu Ruoyun replied, “I know.”
Gu Lingyu paused and looked at Gu Ruoyun in disbelief.
The determination in Gu Ruoyun’s eyes made Gu Lingyu’s words get stuck in his throat.
He could only turn his gaze to Su Yan and say, “Yan’er, say something for me.”
To Su Yan, Gu Lingyu was seeking death. The grasp on her hand was getting tighter, she felt very helpless.
