On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law

  Chapter 60 Intertwined and quickly separated

   Zhou Mu in the dormitory was not asleep. He heard the sound of the door being pushed open and thought it was Nanny Yin.

  After a sleepless night, his voice was a little hoarse: "I don't need anyone to take care of me here, Mammy is going to do her own thing."

   Gu Xiyan wanted to retreat when she was pushed into the room by Nanny Yin, but when Zhou Mu spoke suddenly, she knew that Zhou Mu was not asleep.

  For a while, she couldn't move forward or back, and didn't know whether to answer or not.

   After all, she is a guest. Although she is gradually getting acquainted with the master and servant of the Zhou family, it is still time to tell the master that she is here.

  After hesitating for a moment, she replied: "If you go back to the young master, it's me, the mother is busy."

   Zhou Mu first heard Gu Xiyan's voice, thinking that he had an auditory hallucination, and jumped up from the bed at this moment.

  Gu Xiyan didn't expect his reaction to be so big, so she rushed to the bed to check: "Did you hit somewhere?"

   Zhou Mu did bump his head, but within the range he could bear, what he couldn't bear was that Gu Xiyan's voice was so close to him.

  He took a deep breath, and looked at Gu Xiyan with a normal expression: "I'm fine, why is the girl here?"

   Now that they were so close, Gu Xiyan saw that Zhou Mu's eyes were black and blue. His complexion is as cold as white jade, so this bluish black is very eye-catching.

   "Did you not rest last night, sir?" She asked with concern.

  While she was speaking, her sweet and warm breath was like a dense net, overwhelming Zhou Mu's breath, which was exactly the same as the feeling in his dream.

  He closed his eyes, unable to face Gu Xiyan's face calmly.

   "Young Master?" Gu Xiyan felt that something was wrong with Zhou Mu, and his mood seemed a little unstable.

  In her impression of him, this person would not panic even if Mount Tai was overwhelmed. He is not an ordinary person who can be easily influenced by others.

   Just when she was confused, Zhou Mu lay back on the bed with his back to her.

   "I'm tired, I want to sleep for a while, when the girl goes out, close the door for me." Zhou Mu's voice was low and depressing like today's gloomy sky.

  Gu Xiyan looked at his back with the word "resist" written all over it, and was extremely confused: "Then I will stay outside, and if you have anything to do, you can tell me."

  She didn't wait for Zhou Mu's response, she walked out of the inner room lightly, and gently closed the door.

   Zhou Mu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the door close.

  He felt that it was dangerous to be in the same room with Gu Xiyan, but it was easier for him to be alone.

Gu Xiyan knew that Qi Zhiyuan had entered the palace, and there were only a few people serving in the house. Yuan Lao and Yuan Nianci didn't live in Zhou's house. As for the hidden guards protecting Zhou Mu, they were only responsible for protecting Zhou Mu's safety, not for nothing. Showing up for no reason, that is, only when Zhou Mu is in danger.

  Cai Yu is also very good at martial arts, but he is responsible for guarding the entire house.

  Nurse Yin has to take care of the big and small things in the house, and she is usually very busy.

  Qi Zhiyuan would be by Zhou Mu's side all the time, but sometimes he was sent out by Zhou Mu to do errands.

   It should be a very meaningful thing to be a maidservant by Zhou Mu's side.

   This thought just passed by, Gu Xiyan felt that although Zhou Mu's maidservant was a good job, it was still not as attractive as earning money.

   Zhou Mu in the inner room couldn't sleep because he wanted to sleep, but he had internal strength and good hearing. He could hear every movement of the person outside the room clearly.

  At one moment he heard her walking back and forth outside, and at another moment he heard her jumping down the steps.

   Could it be that she entertained herself to pass the time like this when she used to have nothing to do?

  He could even imagine how her childhood life came from.

  Gu Xiyan is sincere, Zhou Mu asked her to come out, and she really came out. Nanny Yin asked her to serve Zhou Mu nearby, she felt that outside the door was the closest place to Zhou Mu.

  If Zhou Mu wakes up, she can enter and serve immediately until Qi Zhiyuan returns home.

  Before that, she had to be ready to be summoned by Zhou Mu at any time.

  Since Zhou Mu was sleeping, she obediently waited outside.

  She sat down on a clean place on the stone steps, picked five well-proportioned stones, and played a game of catching stones alone.

  She was engrossed in playing, when Zhou Mu's voice sounded above her head: "Miss playing with stones?"

  Gu Xiyan was startled, and when she looked back, she saw Zhou Mu quietly walking behind her.

  He was only wearing a pure white jacket, the collar was tightly seamed to his neck, and he couldn't even see his Adam's apple. But when he bowed his head, the long hair like ink poured down, and a few strands of hair fell on her shoulders, entangled with her hair, and then quickly separated.

   Zhou Mu couldn't help but smile when he saw her beautiful eyes, "Did you scare me?"

  Gu Xiyan hurriedly threw stones, stood up, retreated to the bottom of the steps, and stood a little further away from Zhou Mu before standing still: "Young master, why don't you go to bed, did I make you rest?"

   "It has nothing to do with you, it's my own problem. Come with me, and I'll treat you to tea." Zhou Mu led the way ahead.

   Gu Xiyan looked at his slender and straight back, and felt that even the back of this young man was charming.

  She was fascinated by watching it, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that she had followed Zhou Mu into the tea room.

  There is a whole set of tea sets in the tea room, and Zhou Mu is an expert in the tea ceremony.

  He didn't have those fancy movements when making tea, just a simple tea making process, but because he is so good-looking, his slender fingers are like bamboo joints, which complement each other with the porcelain white tea set, and the serving is pleasing to the eye.

   After waiting for an extra cup of tea, Gu Xiyan realized that she was staring at the other person's hand intently, and her face was a little hot for a while.

   "Try." Zhou Mu's voice was hoarse.

   Gu Xiyan took the teacup and poured it into her mouth, but it was too late for Zhou Mu to stop it.

   And Gu Xiyan forgot that it was hot tea, so she sipped it until it was so hot that the tip of her tongue stuck out.

   Zhou Mu's eyes darkened when he saw her pink tongue sticking out. He felt impolite again, so he lowered his head and pretended to be busy.

   Gu Xiyan's tongue was numb from the heat, and it took a while to remember that she had lost her manners in front of Zhou Mu just now.

  Would Zhou Mu think she was too frivolous?

   She looked at Zhou Mu hesitantly, and found that the cup of tea Zhou Mu had brewed was already full, so she hurriedly reminded: "Master, the tea is overflowing."

   Zhou Mu realized that he had lost his composure. He put down the teapot and frowned slightly.

  Gu Xiyan could tell at a glance that Zhou Mu was in a bad mood.

  There are very few people and things in this world that can affect Zhou Mu, and there are not many things that can make Zhou Mu frown. She just met them today.

   "Master, did you burn your hand?" Gu Xiyan asked nervously, almost wanting to grab Zhou Mu's hand to check.

   Zhou Mu calmed down as quickly as possible: "I'm fine, but the girl just got burned..."

  He looked at Gu Xiyan's lips, and remembered the glamorous picture he had just seen, and didn't understand how he became like this.

  He wouldn't be so wretched before.

  Gu Xiyan didn't notice Zhou Mu's almost self-loathing emotion, she replied softly: "I was not careful, and I have recovered now."

  —

   Today I updated 10,000 words, I feel like asking for a monthly ticket can be louder. Hey, the ranking has gone from 26 to 25, and it has risen steadily.

  Thank you for your support.
