The Tales of a Blessed Daughter

Chapter 103: Returning to the Su Family Home

Chu Tao pushed open the door and entered. She knew that Su Yan was shy so she did not mention what had happened just now.

Chun Xia only smiled but did not say anything else.

Su Yan heaved a sigh of relief and her expression gradually returned back to normal.

Chu Tao quickly prepared breakfast and told her, “The Royal Highness said that he would come back later to eat with you.”

Su Yan’s face turned red at the mention of him but she managed to control herself and nodded with a straight face.

Coincidentally, Gu Ruoyun arrived right after Chu Tao had finished her sentence.

He looked at Su Yan, who was obediently sitting at the table, and smiled.

He saw that she was wearing a high-collared shirt which had cleverly covered the marks he had left on her from last night. A trace of pity flashed across his eyes.

Su Yan glared at him indignantly.

Gu Ruoyun sat next to Su Yan and said with a stern face, “Who made the king’s consort unhappy? I’ll help you take care of him.”

Su Yan pouted and said, “Who else could it be? It’s you.”

Gu Ruoyun smiled as he moved closer. Their faces were close to each other as he asked, “Then how do you want to deal with me?”

Su Yan quickly blocked his face with her hand and said helplessly, “Don’t come so close to me.”

She discreetly looked at the servants in the room.

The servants tactfully retreated from the room, leaving only the two of them.

They were relieved to know that the Royal Highness and the Princess had a very close relationship.

Su Yan did not feel relieved. Instead, her face turned red.

Gu Ruoyun looked how easily embarrassed Su Yan was and sighed. “You’re already feeling so shy now. If that’s the case, in the future if we were to… you will be so embarrassed that you will not want to see anyone.”

Su Yan strangely understood what he had not said. The redness on her face instantly spread to her neck.

Gu Ruoyun let out a stifled laugh and decided to stop teasing her. It would not be good if he made her anxious.

He let go of her and then placed the chopsticks next to her hand. He scooped a bowl of white porridge for her and said, “Hurry up and eat.”

Su Yan quickly lowered her head and ate her porridge to hide her shyness.

Gu Ruoyun would occasionally use his chopsticks to pick up some food for her.

She ate it without raising her head. After all, this table was full of dishes that she liked to eat.

After breakfast, Su Yan could now look at Gu Ruoyun directly. Her expression had returned to normal.

Gu Ruoyun then said, “I’ll accompany you back to the Su family home later.”

Su Yan raised her head in surprise and looked at him.

Gu Ruoyun found it funny and said, “I don’t usually restrict your movements. Is there a need to be so surprised?”

Su Yan replied shyly, “I’m already married. If I keep on returning home, it will not bode well for your reputation.”

Gu Ruoyun smiled and pinched her nose, “So my princess is so considerate of me.”

Su Yan raised her head proudly, “Of course.”

Gu Ruoyun smiled and said solemnly, “You can do whatever you want. If you want to go back, go back. It’s fine as long as you return by night time. Otherwise, Old Master Su will find trouble with me.”

As soon as he said this, Su Yan knew that he had heard what her grandfather had told her when he came to find her.

She was a little embarrassed but when she saw the doting look in his eyes, Su Yan asked coyly, “Then what if I don’t come back at night?”

She was deliberately trying to see where Gu Ruoyun’s bottom line was. For a woman who is married, furthermore a princess consort at that, staying at her family’s house for the night would not be beneficial for the reputation of the imperial residence.

Gu Ruoyun’s said with a solemn expression, “Then… bring me along.”

Su Yan opened her mouth in shock. She did not expect him to say this.

She replied sullenly, “Who’s going to bring you along?”

Gu Ruoyun indulged her, “Yes, I’ll follow you, alright?”

Su Yan glared at him and turned her head away, ignoring him.

Thinking of Gu Ruoyun in her heart… she could not help but smile.

The mirror in front of Su Yan reflected her true feelings. Gu Ruoyun took in her expression and rubbed her head in amusement.

Su Yan, who had no idea that she had been exposed, was still pretending to be angry.

Gu Ruoyun had always abide to her favours and even carried her into the carriage. Su Yan could not help but burst into laughter.
