Chapter 264: Unwavering Heart

her from Old Madam to be his concubine. After the Second Mistress entered the house, she was promoted to a formal concubine position.Meng Jinyao was slightly taken aback, then quickly understood. One...The arrival of the wedding procession pushed the banquet to another high, it was very lively.

As the wedding procession and farewell procession departed, the peak of the banquet came to an end. In the evening, a dinner commenced. Guests and hosts raised their glasses to each other, engaging in lively conversation and creating a festive atmosphere.

After three rounds of drinks and five courses of dishes, both the host and guests were slightly tipsy. Some guests, unable to hold their liquor, had already passed out and were escorted by the host's family to guest rooms for rest.

As the banquet ended, both host and guests were very happy.

Tonight, Meng Jin Yao didn't drink much alcohol. She only had some fruit wine and wasn't drunk. Thinking that Gu Jing Xi had a lot of obligations to attend to, with colleagues, relatives, and friends, men generally drank more. So she returned to Wei Rui Xuan first and asked the maidservant to prepare hangover soup.

But since Weiruixuan had Chunliu, such a careful maid, she had already anticipated that the two masters might drink alcohol, so she had already prepared two portions of hangover soup and placed them in the small kitchen. Seeing Meng Jinyao return, she immediately stepped forward to ask if she needed hangover soup.

Meng Jinyu felt very comforted. As expected of a maidservant from her mother-in-law's courtyard, she was meticulous and considerate in everything she did. She shook her head slightly and replied, "I didn't drink much tonight, the Marquis should need it. Tell someone to prepare water, I'm going to bathe.

As soon as she heard the call, Chunliu immediately ordered a rough maid to prepare a bath.

After Meng Jinyao's bath, Gu Jingxi came back. He was drinking sobering soup and hurriedly ordered the maidservant to prepare water for him to bathe. She went to prepare his pajamas for later. They should rest early tonight. After all, he had been entertaining guests all day, which was quite tiring.

Gu Jingxi took the clothes from his little wife and went to the clean room to bathe.

Meng Jinyo entered her inner room, intending to sleep. But she found herself unable to slumber. Thoughts of Gu Xuanying and Chen's interaction from earlier that day involuntarily surfaced in her mind, prompting her to think about her own mother whom she had never met. Although she had never seen her mother, Meng Jinyo still yearned for her and imagined how their relationship might have been if her mother were still alive.

When Gu Jingxi returned to his bedroom after bathing, he saw his young wife lying on the bed, her hands propping up her cheeks and her eyebrows furrowed in thought. He didn't know what she was thinking about, so he walked over, took off his slippers, climbed onto the bed, and held her in his arms.

Meng Jinyao fell into his warm embrace, looked up at him, her expression somewhat dazed: "What's wrong with my husband"

Gu Jingxi held her waist in one hand and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear with the other, asking softly, "Ayao, was someone bullying you"

Meng Jinyang was taken aback. "Why do you ask that, husband"

"Looking at your complexion, it seems something is troubling you. Gu Jingxi reached out and gently caressed her face, "Who bullied you Tell your husband about it, and I'll help you get justice."

Hearing this, a warm current flowed through Meng Jinyao's heart. She felt warm and fuzzy inside, and a smile appeared on her face: "I am the wife of the Marquis of Changxing. Who would be so blind to openly bully me"

Gu Jingxi looked at him with suspicion. "Are you sure no one has bullied you"

Meng Jin Yao shook her head gently and whispered, "No, I just thought of my mother. I heard she was a dignified and elegant woman, but it's a pity that I never met her. Sometimes, I also think that if my mother were still alive, I wouldn't have been bullied growing up. They say children without a mother are like weeds, and in fact, that's true."

After she finished speaking, her expression dimmed again.

Gu Jingxi's expression faltered, and for a moment he didn't know how to comfort her. He could only softly say to her, "Ayao, you have me now. Although I can't replace your mother-in-law, I can take good care of you."

Meng Jin Yao's mood was down, but hearing his words, that feeling of oppression lessened a lot. She leaned against his chest and looked at his eyes intently, then smiled suddenly: "Husband, what should we do"

Gu Jingxi's face was full of bewilderment: "What do you mean"

Meng Jin Yao said crisply, "I seem to be liking you more and more."

Taken aback, Gu Jingxi's heart skipped a beat. A ripple stirred in his chest as he gazed into her affectionate eyes. He tightened his grip on her hand but then loosened it upon seeing her discomfort. He held her with restrained longing.

Meng Jinyáo softly asked, "What's wrong"

Gu Jingxi looked at her delicate and beautiful face, which still had a hint of youthfulness. He asked softly, "Ayao, I am much older than you. If ten or eight years pass, I will be old and unattractive, but you will still be young. Will you still like me, an old man, then"

Meng Jin Yao retorted, "Would that old geezer back then still treat me as well as you do now"

Gu Jingxi was stunned for a moment, then quickly replied: "Of course."

Meng Jin Yao smiled sweetly, and said: “Then I will still like the old geezer, as long as the old geezer doesn’t change his heart, I won’t change mine.”

Gu Jingxi pursed her lips and smiled: "I won't"

"Then, my lord, will you keep your word"

After Meng Jin Yao finished speaking, she leaned forward and kissed Jing Xi's face. One kiss wasn't enough, so she gave him another "smooch". On this front, she was always bold. Even if she felt shy inside, her actions wouldn't back down.

If the little wife takes the initiative, how can the husband not follow suit

Gu Jingxi rolled over, pinning her underneath him. He leaned down and kissed her lips.

This kiss came on strong.

Meng Jin Yao only felt a slight pain on her lips, passively enduring the kiss.

She looked at the man's handsome face, her heart gradually being taken over by him. She was captivated by his gentle and affectionate eyes, slowly closing her eyes and hugging his neck in response.

Passionate and lingering.

A kiss ends.

Meng Jin Yao leaned against him, breathing softly. Her clothes were undone at some point, her collarbone and the delicate skin beneath exposed, bearing several marks.

The white of the frost and snow, against the imprint of rouge, creates a strong visual impact. It's both ambiguous and alluring.

Gu Jingxi looked at the snow-white skin, his masterpiece. His eyes deepened, unable to resist further mischief, wanting to add a few more.

Meng Jinyao did not refuse, allowing the man to wreak havoc on her body.

Actually, they have already tried this twice before. This is the third time.

She also vaguely sensed that Gu Jingxi liked being close to her like this, even if he couldn't go all the way.

After much effort, it's finally over.

Meng Jin Yao's face was flushed, her eyes were filled with spring, like a pool of spring water, her mouth slightly open, as if she wanted to speak but held back. It made people itch with anticipation.

Gu Jingxi's eyes darkened, he lowered his head and kissed her eye corner, holding her tightly in his arms.

When she couldn't see, the man's expression showed a hint of annoyance and loneliness, as well as a barely perceptible trace of inferiority. He couldn't help but doubt Dr. Wen's medical skills and muttered to himself: "Does Dr. Wen's medicine really work"s to be expelled from the clan, and the reasons were more than sufficient. Such a rotten apple would shame the entire family. When people talked about the Gu family, they would inevitably mention this...
