winter, night "Miss, you better not go out.
If the master finds out, I will be whipped."
Shangguan Liuyue said nervously while lying on the bed.
"No, if you don't light the candle, Daddy will think I'm asleep when he comes back from the palace.
He won't be discovered.
Just lie down and I'll be back soon."
Shangguan Qingning forcefully covered her with the quilt. .
Quietly blow out the candles, put on the mink cloak, put on the furry hat, and sneak out of the door.
Avoiding the servant's eyes, he walked along the bluestone path and hid behind the rockery.
After looking around to make sure no one was there, he ducked and slipped to the back door, opened the door furtively, and slipped out.
Today is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and the streets are still as lively as during the Chinese New Year.
Today is the first time that Shangguan Qingning sneaks out of her house.
She has never left the house and walked on the street, looking here and there, looking around.
When she saw vendors buying lanterns or jewelry, she would run over and pick up a few items and look at them for a long time.
Walking to the upper reaches of the river, walking on the bridge, leaning down to look at the figure reflected in the river below, she opened her mouth from ear to ear with joy like a child.
Suddenly, someone was passing by and bumped into her accidentally.
One step was unstable, his feet slipped, and he fell down. exclaimed.
"ah" With his arms spread wide, he couldn't catch the bridge in time and fell into the river very quickly.
She couldn't swim and struggled desperately.
Just as her consciousness became increasingly blurred, she felt someone leaping briskly across the river.
She gradually sank.
When she had the last trace of consciousness left, she felt someone grabbing her hand.
My head hurts and my body feels so cold.
Shangguan Qingning slowly opened her eyes, and a pair of thin, red lips were approaching her.
It's obviously just lips, why do they look so beautiful?
When those slightly cool lips touched her own, she suddenly opened her eyes wide, pushed him away, and suddenly retreated back.
A biting chill hit her, and she suddenly hugged her arms. .
Looking at each other tremblingly.
"Who are you to dare to invade me?"
Shangguan Qingning's chin trembled, and his words were a little unclear.
She only felt that she was about to freeze.
Gu Xiaoran saw that her soaked long hair had fallen off and was covered with a thin layer of frost in the cold weather.
His eyebrows lowered sadly, and there was a flash of brilliance.
He waved the complicated gown coolly, stood up, walked over, wrapped her in the gown, and hugged her.
From the first moment he came ashore, he could tell that she was not dressed like an ordinary woman.
The jade pendant around her waist also made him a little concerned.
It should be said that he seemed to have seen it somewhere.
"You, please let me down, you, you romantic man, don't touch me."
Shangguan Qingning said unforgivingly, but her body stayed in his arms obediently.
So warm.
"I advise you not to speak and calm down first."
Gu Xiaoran's calm tone sounded cold.
Shangguan Qingning was indeed not talking, her head was buried in his broad chest, fully feeling the warmth he brought to her, her ears were close to his heart.
His steady heartbeat made her feel very stable, and the body temperature of his body kept her from being cold.
Unknowingly, she fell asleep quietly.

There was a hint of sandalwood fragrance in the air, and a warm breath hit her nostrils.
Shangguan Qingning slowly opened her eyes, and suddenly felt a touch on her waist.
He hurriedly sat up, leaned on the bedside, and stared at Gu Xiaoran.
"What are you doing?"
She looked around and saw a bath bucket on the ground, and he had touched her waist just now.
The sense of danger immediately rose, and she pointed at him and said, "You, you get out, otherwise, or I will shout It’s indecent.”
Gu Xiaoran didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He put down his hand in mid-air and gestured to her with his eyes, "I just looked at your jade pendant."
Shangguan Qingning followed his gaze, half believing it or not.
"It's such a cold day.
If you fall into the river, you must be frozen.
I asked this inn to prepare bath water.
You can take a good bath and soak for a while.
You will feel much warmer.
I will go out first."
Gu Xiaoran smiled tenderly at her, walked to the barrel, and specially tested the water temperature.
After expressing that he was very satisfied, he walked to the door and before closing the door, he did not forget to smile at her.
Shangguan Qingning was melted by his smile.
A man can smile so beautifully.
She got out of bed, went to the door and locked it.
Then she slowly took off her clothes and soaked in the bath water.
She couldn't help but uttered: "It feels so comfortable."
Then, while wiping his body, he muttered: "Looking at his words and deeds, his conversation is even more extraordinary, and his clothes make him look like a noble man.
No wonder he is so gentle."
Gu Xiaoran stood at the door, twirling his fingers, as if feeling the coolness emanating from the jade pendant just now.
Only the best ice jade can keep the coolness away for a long time, and only the royal family and Shangguan family have ice jade.
He turned and lay on the railing.
It seemed that he had guessed correctly.
This woman must be the daughter of the Shangguan family.
The corner of her mouth curled up, a sneer appeared, her eyes showed fierceness, and she murmured coldly: "It really took no effort at all, and it can be considered a happy event."
Put on makeup.”
After three cups of tea, Gu Xiaoran turned around and looked when he heard the sound of opening the door.
I saw Shangguan Qingning take off his cloak, and he was dressed in emerald green clothes, with gauze floating outside, elegant and graceful.
Because the red hairpin fell off, the temples naturally spread out, and three thousand hair strands hung down on his waist.
His cheeks were a little red, he folded his hands on his abdomen, lowered his head and said shyly: "Thank you for saving my life, sir.
It was a little girl who lost her temper just now."
Although the other party is a lady of the family, she has no unruly intentions at all, and her words and deeds are even more orderly and dignified, without losing the upbringing of a daughter of a boudoir.
For a moment, his eyes were really fixed on her.
If he hadn't already determined in his heart that this woman was his pawn, he would have been lost.
"No problem, just do a good deed that day."
Gu Xiaoran replied generously.
Shangguan Qingning raised his head in surprise and opened his mouth slightly.
Only then did he observe the other party carefully.
Wearing a blue gown with mink velvet shawl tied around the shoulders and neck, her delicate face has a mature aura and extraordinary appearance, and her brows are even more heroic.
The eagle eyes under the sword-shaped brows are dark, making it difficult to see to the end.

The facial features are very standard.
Although they are not as clear and beautiful as the sculptures, they are attractive and attractive.
"May I ask, sir, what time is it now?"
Shangguan Qingning walked over and asked.
She is more worried about June at home.
"Xu Shi."
Gu Xiaoran answered.
"I have to go back so late."
Shangguan Qingning exclaimed, then walked into the room to find the cloak.
"I asked the waiter to take the cloak to be cleaned.
It won't be dry until tomorrow."
Seeing her panic, Gu Xiaoran stepped forward and said.
Seeing her embarrassed look, he smiled bitterly.
He walked up to her and wrapped his shawl around her neck: "Take this with you, I'll take you back
