Drunk House Chapter 169

Chapter 169 Risk Your Life to Be with a Gentleman (1 more)

Xie Lin recalled that day, Zhou Gu was really hit hard by the fruit, he stopped talking immediately, thinking that things can still be thought of this way? But at the time he was really angry.

He boasted that he was not much worse than Chief Gu, so why didn't anyone throw fresh fruit at him? During that time, he really doubted that his conduct was bad, why he was not liked by others.

Now that he heard what Zhou Gu said, he also felt that it made sense. Is it a good thing to be hit by fruit? He insisted on rushing to come. Because of this, Zhou Gu had been at loggerheads for a long time.

He tapped his forehead, and said "uh", "It's my brother's fault, I will apologize to you, come drink."

"You punish yourself with three cups." Zhou Gu glanced at him.

Xie Lin paused, "Don't, you know I can't drink enough, if you drink me down now, no one will talk to you."

Zhou Gu thought the same, picked up the cup and touched him, "Then drink slowly!"

Xie Lin nodded, "This is such a good wine, you can't drink it, it's a waste, it's still early, let's drink it slowly." Today, he went all out and planned to accompany Zhou Gu if he didn't get drunk, and apologized to him with apology, "Well, brother, I'm really sorry, I really didn't expect it, I just said something casually, I don't think you can really marry."

Zhou Gu snorted, annoyed, "I really shouldn't have a good heart that day, so I should really find you one in the brothel, maybe it will break your crow's mouth."

Xie Lin had nothing to say. That day, he passed out drunk in the Zuihualou. Zhou Gu seemed to be watching "Historical Records" while waiting for him to wake up. He really didn't play tricks on him. He was loyal enough, and he felt even more guilty, "I will not curse you indiscriminately in the future. If there is another time, I will be a bachelor for the rest of my life and die alone."

Zhou Gu squinted at him, but said nothing.

"I'm not joking, you know that my family has a throne that will be hereditary to me, and I can't die alone. What I said is absolutely sincere." Xie Lin repeatedly stated his position.

He is different from Zhou Gu. Zhou Gu has an older brother from his compatriots, and the title of Duke Huguo is to be inherited by his elder brother, but he is a brother without a direct descendant. The future throne of Rui'an Palace, as long as he does not make a big mistake, will be his.

Zhou Gu finally nodded, "All right!"

"Then will you forgive me?" Xie Lin asked him.

Zhou Gu pointed to the wine in front of him, "I'll forgive you if you drank all of it today."

Xie Lin made a bitter face, "So much, you will drink to death, right?"

"No." Zhou Gu reached into his bosom, took out a square box, put it in front of him, and said thoughtfully: "Here are hangover pills, if you think you can't do it, take one."

Xie Lin opened his eyes wide, "I feel dizzy right now."

"Then you can eat one now."

"Are you done eating?"

"Continue to drink after eating."

Xie Lin: "..."

He figured it out, Zhou Gu Jiner had come here to settle accounts with him on purpose, not only spent all his money, but also made him drunk to death, otherwise this matter would not be able to pass.

He opened the box silently, took out a hangover pill, stuffed it into his mouth, then nodded to him, and said bravely: "Success, today I will risk my life to accompany the gentleman."

Zhou Gu snorted lightly, "Look at how hard you are to sacrifice your life, why are you talking about risking your life?"

Xie Lin was blocked and muttered, "Isn't there a saying? If you want money, you will die. You have spent so much money on me today, and you have killed me. In the next few days, I will have no money to eat and drink. I won't be ashamed to ask my mother for money."

Zhou Gu reminded him, "No, you still have one hundred taels."

Xie Lin: "..."

Should he be happy? But when the shopkeeper returned the money bag to him, he was very happy to hear that there was still one hundred taels left.

After Su Rong came out of the Duke Protector's Mansion, he didn't go anywhere, but returned along the same road, and went directly back to the Princess Mansion.

The housekeeper was very happy to see her come back, "Miss Seven, you came back so soon? Just now the princess sent someone to ask, saying that if you haven't come back after a while, she will go out to find you in person."

Su Rong thought to herself that she was afraid that she would look around, so she came back directly. She smiled, "After the matter is done, she will come back naturally. She said that she will stay with me for two more days. I dare not refuse her, otherwise your princess will not let her go with her temper."

The butler smiled cheerfully, "Our princess likes you. This old slave watched the princess grow up. From childhood to adulthood, I haven't seen the princess treat anyone like you."

Su Rong pursed her lips and smiled, "She just likes to play, and I just like to play too."

The steward nodded, and personally accompanied Su Rong to send her back to the Cangjiao Pavilion, then stopped at the door, and said to her: "Since you came to the princess mansion, we have become more relaxed in our work, so you should listen to the princess and stay for a few more days. If you get bored living in the mansion, our princess mansion still has a few villas. Now is the time when the melons and fruits are ripe, you can go to the manor to live and relax."

Su Rong smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Seeing her agreeing to speak well, the housekeeper stopped talking cheerfully and went to work.

Duanhua rushed out of the room when he heard the movement at the door, and looked at her in surprise, "Why did you come back so soon? The Duke Protector's Mansion beat you out?"

Su Rong thought that she probably misunderstood the Duke Hu's mansion deeply. In her opinion, the Duke Hu's mansion was very reasonable. She came to the door to divorce, whether it was the old Duke Hu, Princess Sheng'an, or the Duke's wife, she didn't feel bad for her at all. She didn't say anything harsh, and she didn't even show a cold face. To her, it was already very kind to her.

She shook her head, and said the same thing, "I'll be back when I'm done." She specifically emphasized, "I didn't get beaten. The Duke of the Protectorate is courteous, not someone who waits unreasonably."

Especially Zhou Gu, who is very well-mannered, he was so angry that he even sent her out the door himself.

Duanhua took her arm, shocked, "Really divorced?"

Will such a big matter as divorce be resolved so quickly? And she was the only one who went, and she came back safe and sound.

Su Rong nodded, "It's true that the engagement has been terminated, the marriage contract has been dissolved, the marriage certificate has been destroyed, and the tokens have been exchanged for each other. Even the gifts that Zhou Gu and I gave each other will be returned to each other, and I made it clear."

Duanhua: "..."

She pulled Su Rong into the room, "Tell me the story quickly, how can it be so easy to resign the engagement? Didn't the old Huguogong tell you? Didn't Zhou Gu turn against you? Didn't Princess Sheng'an scold you? No matter how good-tempered Mrs. Guogong is, she is also angry?"

Su Rong shook his head, "None of what you said."

Duanhua: "..."

She doubted, "Could it be that the Duke Huguo's Mansion wanted to regret the marriage with you long ago? They just waited for you to come to the door? So, for you to voluntarily withdraw from the engagement, with such acquaintance, the Duke's Mansion couldn't wish for it?"

Su Rong smiled, "That's not the case."

She was dragged in by Duanhua, went straight into the back room, and closed the door. Duanhua stared at her with burning eyes, full of curiosity and confusion about this matter.

Su Rong didn't hide anything from her, and directly told the story of the divorce. Of course, the part about her mother and her life experience was concealed.

Duanhua finished listening: "..."

She looked at Su Rong in horror, held back for a long while, and then commented, "Zhou Gu is right, you are really brave, you dare to say such exaggerated words."

Su Rong was speechless, and she didn't want to, but when Zhou Gu spoke harshly, she was afraid that he would be young and arrogant, and would really do something out of the house. She divorced him for the sake of both of them. If he was not good, it would also go against her original intention of retiring.

Since this is the case, what is it to say if you are cruel?

Facts were exactly as he expected, he agreed to divorce, and he didn't say a word about going out of the house. After all, her goal was achieved.

Duanhua sat down, "Zhou Gu didn't draw his sword at you?"

Su Rong touched his nose, "I was also afraid that he would draw his sword against me."

It is not good to fight in the old Huguogong's study, after all, if he draws his sword, she will definitely fight back. She wouldn't be the one who was beaten, even if she came to the door and broke the engagement.

Duanhua glared at Su Rong angrily, "You are too much, Zhou Gu is so kind, I take back the words I scolded him before."

Su Rong deliberately said: "You don't need to take it back. After all, he didn't draw his sword to me. If it were you, he would definitely have drawn his sword."

Duanhua: "..."

She was furious like a puffer fish, and reached out to beat Su Rong, "Oh, I'm going to kill you. I'll kill you."

Su Rong dodged immediately, and the two of them immediately had a commotion.

Duanhua chased Su Rong and hit him, but naturally she couldn't hit her, but she was so tired that she was out of breath. She lay on the table and glared at Su Rong from across the table, "Re-say what you just said, or I won't finish with you."

Su Rong didn't blush or breathe, and looked at her with a smile across the table, pretending to beg for mercy, "Okay, auntie, let me repeat, if it were you, he wouldn't dare to draw his sword. If he dared to draw his sword, His Majesty would kill him."

Duanhua snorted, as if to let her go, "That's right."
