Shocked! The salty concubine was spoiled by the cold prince

Chapter 108 Pear Garden

When Gu Jiaorong heard this, her voice became unusually lively.

"That's great, thank you, Your Highness." She agreed without hesitation, unable to hide the joy on her face.

Pei Xu liked to see her smiling face the most. Even though a beauty was particularly adorable when she shed tears, her tears should be shed when she was loved by him, not for other reasons.

His bony fingers moved across Gu Jiaorong's pretty face, and his thin lips curved slightly.

No one knows better than Gu Jiaorong how wild a seemingly cynical man can be.

She leaned obediently on the man's shoulder, rubbing her cheek against his fingers, like a little animal relying on its owner.

Such an action greatly pleased Pei Xu, but Pei Xu also knew that Gu Jiaorong was unwilling to be a pet, and he did not want Gu Jiaorong to be just a pet now.

But the time is not right yet, so he can only calm down and wait for the right opportunity.

"If they like a book, let them buy it. If they can't buy it, let me know."

Pei Xu bent down and kissed her again, secretly expressing his love for her.

When Gu Jiaorong heard this, her eyes curved with smile.

"I only know a few words, how can I understand anything good? I just want to find some easy-to-understand travel notes to pass the time. After hearing what Your Highness said, it seems like I want to study."

Her words were still humble, but her heart was not as humble as before.

This travelogue seemed useless, but after careful consideration, she decided that it was the most suitable for her to read, as it would not easily cause others to notice anything wrong, and it might even come in handy in the future.

If that day really comes, Pei Xu certainly doesn't want the person next to him to be a useless person who knows nothing.

Even if he had the ability to protect her, Gu Jiaorong had never thought of handing her life over to someone else.

Pei Xu gently rubbed her head and said as if to coax a child, "If you really want to study, I will stop you and let you not work so hard."

He never expected Gu Jiaorong to bring anything to him from the beginning. Every woman left behind in the backyard might have his conspiracy, but only Gu Jiaorong's existence was out of his selfishness.

If he didn't mean that, even if the Jade Emperor came, Gu Jiaorong would have turned into a corpse long ago.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I don't have that intention. Don't you know me? I'm a lazy person who would rather sit than stand. I would never embarrass myself."

Gu Jiaorong looked at him with a smile, and there was a hint of nonchalance in her tone.

Pei Xu raised his hand and pinched her nose, then said lovingly, "I know, my Rong'er is a lazy little cat."

This was just a casual remark, and they all knew it in their hearts.

Gu Jiaorong was about to get off Pei Xu's legs. Such an intimate posture was not suitable for them at the moment. If there was another accident or an accidental discharge of the gun, she would not be able to withstand it.

Fortunately, Pei Xu did not stop her, but just stared at her with a pair of sharp eyes, as if he was afraid that she would run away.

Fortunately, Gu Jiaorong did not have such a bold idea. She sat next to Pei Xu, poured herself a cup of tea, and sipped it slowly.

Pregnant women should not drink strong tea, and there are standards for daily intake. She has not been sleepy recently, and if she drinks too much tea, she will easily fall asleep. Therefore, even if it is plain tea, she only takes a few sips.

Pei Xu naturally knew it, but that didn't stop her.

If she had to avoid all kinds of food just to have a baby, Gu Jiaorong would have probably given up long ago.

Although this child is very important, she cannot sacrifice herself for the child.

She had lived a miserable life in both her previous and next lives. If she couldn't even satisfy her appetite, she really didn't know what the point of living was.

Gu Jiaorong sighed quietly, it was a pity that there was no milk tea here.

"I heard that the opera theater recently released a new play. I promised Rong'er the other day that I would take her out for a walk when I'm not busy. Are you interested in going tomorrow?"

Pei Xu knew that she was feeling uncomfortable at home, so he thought about it and then spoke.

Gu Jiaorong didn't expect Pei Xu to still remember it. After all, it was not a big deal. She thought at the time that Pei Xu was just being perfunctory.

Perhaps it can be said that most of the time she felt that what Pei Xu said was just perfunctory words.

Thinking of this, she felt a little ashamed.

She never trusted Pei Xu, even though she said she trusted him word for word.

Fortunately, Pei Xu never asked, either because he didn't care or didn't notice.

"If Your Majesty is not busy, I would naturally be willing to go with you."

Gu Jiaorong raised her beautiful eyes and answered gently.

No one knew how much joy she was feeling, but just by looking at her expression, one could tell that she was looking forward to the opera performance.

-

Liyuan is the most famous opera troupe in Beijing, and its houses are always full of guests.

When Gu Jiaorong arrived, most of the people in the garden were already sitting there.

She and Pei Xu were led into a private room and sat down, and then she looked around with an energetic look.

"Your Highness, this opera house looks really nice. This is my first time here."

In the past, she was just a maidservant and had few opportunities to leave the palace, let alone enter such occasions.

After all, Liyuan is different from other opera troupes. Most of the people who come and go are powerful and wealthy. People without status cannot easily enter.

"If you like, I'll bring you here again when I have time."

Pei Xu was worried about Gu Jiaorong coming out alone, and she was pregnant now, so he had to be even more careful.

Gu Jiaorong nodded casually, her eyes still looking around.

Even though she had been to the palace before, such a place still felt new to her.

She would never tell Pei Xu where she came from, nor would she let him know how ordinary her life was in the past. She even couldn't stop talking about saving every three sentences. The luxury and enjoyment before her could not only corrode Shen Zhaohua's heart, but also hers.

She thought, perhaps this is the adult world, and she said goodbye to innocence from then on.

Shen Zhaohua was still not mature enough. She had never experienced breaking down and crying in the corner of a subway station, nor had she experienced being isolated and helpless. That was why she dared to openly tell others in another world what she had in her hands, and even walked into someone else's trap without realizing it.

Gu Jiaorong lowered her eyes and curled her lips; she didn't live a pure life either.

Now that Shen Zhaohua is gone, she will never know that the seemingly well-intentioned reminder and patient dealings were actually scheming exploitations.

Xie Wanning wanted to use her to get rid of Shen Zhaohua. Once Shen Zhaohua fell out of favor, that would be her death. Therefore, as long as she used all means to maintain the balance, she could save her life.

It's better to just be perfunctory with an annoying colleague than to lose your life.

As it turned out, Gu Jiaorong made the right bet. Not only did she survive, but she also became Pei Xu's favorite concubine.

Both the reborn and the time-travelers are dead, only she is still alive, living well.

Only she could hear this performance of Liyuan opera.
