Chapter 6 The bean-like plum flower

　　Not long after concubine Yun left, Xiangqian brought two lower level maids to clean up the things for the bath. However, after cleaning, Xiangqian didn't have the interest to leave and stood at a side.

　　Gu Xiran swept a glance over her, "You aren't going to sleep?"

　　Xiangqian replied, "Concubine Yun let this slave sleep on the couch outside of the curtain to avoid second young master and mistress couldn't call people when you want to drink water or tea."

　　"No need. You can retreat and remember to close the door." While Gu Xiran was speaking, he looked at Shu Huan. "Help me get inside."

　　He became addicted to ordering people around!

　　Shu Huan felt bitter, but she still remembered that glance from him just now. She was curious and could only help him get inside and lie down on the bed. However, after seeing that his body was so weak that if no body helped him, he wasn't able to even walk stable, she was a lot more relaxed and didn't had to worry that he had other motives.

　　After a moment, the sound of the door could be heard outside. Presumably, Xiangqian went out. Aside from the two of them, there was no others in this room. Shu Huan hurriedly asked, "What do you want to say to me?"

　　Gu Xiran was so tired at this moment and was even too lazy to open his eyes. He said, "What should I have to say to you?"

　　"Hey!" Shu Huan felt the feeling of being deceived. "Then, what did you mean by that glance of just now?"

　　Gu Xiran thought it was funny and opened his eyes, "It didn't mean anything. I just wanted you to stay."

　　What the h.e.l.l?!

　　Shu Huan said no more, turned and left.

　　Gu Xiran didn't stop her and only said, "I already let people lock the door of the East Wing. If you go back now, you have to bother people to get up and open the lock for you. You already caused so much trouble this night. Is it still not enough? You should leave some hours for people to sleep!"

　　She also felt apologetic to go bother people. However, locking to not let her go back, what does this person want to do?!

　　Shu Huan turned back and glared at him, "You went overboard!"

　　Gu Xiran smiled lazily and retorted, "Was it?"

　　Shu Huan was speechless. Indeed, because she time-traveled and wasn't the original owner, she felt that it was a matter of course that she didn't share the same bed with a stranger. However, it also seemed a matter of course that Gu Xiran asked to share the bed with the wife who he was officially married to. Even to outsiders, the one who was not reasonable was her.

　　She could only use the indirect tactic again, "That, seeing the new person laugh, how would one know the bitterness of the old person? Presumably Yan would be very sad seeing you like this."

• Seeing the new person laugh, how would one know the bitterness of the old person: having a new lover, forgetting about the old one.

　　Gu Xiran looked at her with interest. After a moment, he said, "It's none of your business. What do you know? Take care of yourself first!"

　　Was he saying that she was too nosy?!

　　Shu Huan opened her mouth and wanted to retort. After she thought about it, she decided to forget it. The two of them grew up in different environments. Naturally their beliefs were also different. Moreover, even if she continued to talk about it, it would be a waste of saliva.
