The Grand Finale (continued)
For some reason, he found it funny, and also a little smug.
It's that kind of childish thinking, "You all think I'm no good, but I'll amaze you."
"Do I need to explain to you?" Xu Weibei stood up, casually pushed the chair aside, and pulled up his pants.
We're all men, what don't we understand?
Gu Anqi gritted his teeth and said, "What exactly are you trying to do! You're clearly not sick, yet you're publicly claiming you're impotent. Are you trying to deceive Gu Wanning, or the whole world!"
The former indicates that he looks down on his sister, which is humiliating.
The latter statement indicates that he is ambitious and is feigning weakness to lull the world into a false sense of security.
What is his purpose?
Gu Anqi had been thinking about this for a long time, and now he simply couldn't hold back any longer.
He knew he should pretend not to know and investigate slowly; but he couldn't resist.
He needs to get to the bottom of this.
His sister was completely unguarded with him, and he actually... actually...
Xu Weibei rolled his eyes at him, "I think you've ruined your brain with all that studying. Why do you have to meddle in our marital affairs? You're being nosy!"
No one but Gu Wanning should ask about this matter; no one should be allowed to ask.
Gu Anqi, however, was convinced that he had something to hide and demanded an explanation.
Seeing that Xu Weibei's gaze was almost like he was about to be devoured alive, he had no choice but to make up a lie to coax him.
"... There was indeed a problem initially, but it was cured later."
Gu Anqi had some doubts.
But considering Xu Weibei's past display of unbearable grief, if it was all an act, then he might as well go and be an opera singer.
Gu Anqi silently breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he was still somewhat uneasy, so he asked, "Gu Wanning know about this?"
Xu Weibei was speechless.
If he admits to this, doesn't that mean he's incompetent?
But he really couldn't bear to lie.
Gu Anqi's heart, which had just settled, jumped again, and he angrily demanded, "What exactly do you intend to do!"
He despises his own sister and schemes against her!
If he had nothing to hide, why would he pretend to be guilty?
Gu Anqi was furious.
He rarely lost his composure like this, but the thought of his kind and intelligent sister, who was innocent, and the scheming beast sleeping next to him made it impossible for him to control himself.
Xu Weibei: "... What are you yelling about! Isn't it because Gu Wanning is scared that I haven't dared to tell her I've recovered?"
Was it easy for him?
He had a soft, warm body in his arms, but he couldn't take it any further. It was harder for him than anyone else; he was going crazy with frustration!
Gu Anqi looked at him, his gaze shifting from anger to confusion, then to bewilderment...
What is Xu Weibei saying?
Why can he hear each word clearly, but not understand them when they're put together?
Gu Anqi concluded that Xu Weibei was deliberately being vague, trying to confuse him.
He absolutely won't fall for it!
He's not as foolish as his sister!
Xu Weibei felt that he was like a scholar encountering a soldier today, unable to reason with anyone.
Can we talk about their marital affairs with outsiders?
Suddenly he realized that Gu Anqi seemed to have a very good relationship with his wife.
You can tell from the fact that they had a bunch of sons...
He's been through it all, and he's also the brother-in-law, so he's practically an outsider.
Gu Anqi, who was deemed useful, was quickly and cleverly incorporated into Xu Weibei's inner circle.
So Xu Weibei then recounted the "conflict" between the two of them.
Gu Anqi's face was filled with disbelief.
He couldn't believe that Xu Weibei was so... naive!
How could he!
Then, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Enraged by his laughter, Xu Weibei drew his sword to strike him.
Gu Anqi took two steps back, but still couldn't help laughing.
He said, "I really am..."
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
Xu Weibei: "Stop!"
This guy listened to his joke and left without offering any advice?
People Gu families are truly despicable.
Gu Anqi said irritably, "I'll have my wife talk to her later!"
"Say what? Say what?" Xu Weibei, puzzled.
Gu Anqi gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, "Have you ever seen a woman complain about something because she couldn't stand it?"
There have always been women who complain about being neglected by their husbands, never women who complain about being loved by their husbands!
This Xu Weibei is utterly foolish!
Gu Anqi felt that he had already gone this far, seeing things through to the very end.
Before he could take two steps, he heard Xu Weibei mutter to himself, "How can she be the same as others?"
Gu Anqi nearly vomited blood and died.
Forget it, forget it. Why bother talking to this idiot?
He even suspected Xu Weibei of having some shady schemes, but now it seems he completely overestimated Xu Weibei.
He's so love-struck, his mind is full of rotten good-for-nothing things!
Several days later, Yiling entered the palace and saved the emperor.
It wasn't that she was heartless or refused to help someone in distress, but rather that some things had a huge impact and were beyond her control.
Only after receiving her father's approval did she enter the palace to rescue the person.
The emperor narrowly escaped death.
Gu Wanning breathed a long sigh of relief upon receiving the news.
Fortunately, they escaped unharmed and can continue living in peace.
Her man should be returned to her.
Having been in the palace for a long time, she felt a sense of unfamiliarity when she saw Xu Weibei.
However, this initial unfamiliarity quickly turned into familiarity after they met.
"What would you like to eat? I'll make it for you."
"No, I'm not hungry. Come in with me first, I have something to tell you."
Gu Wanning: "Why can't we wait until after dinner to say these things?"
Of all things under heaven, eating is the most important.
Without saying a word, Xu Weibei pulled her into the house.
Gu Wanning was still holding the shovel. "Ouch, ouch, slow down—"
