Su Liang went for a workout early in the morning, with Ren Dong accompanying her. When they finished, they saw Qi Jun standing by the training ground.

“Master, I have reunited with my brother, and I have written a letter to my father.” Qi Jun said with a smile, as he was ready to return to “work.”

Su Liang nodded, “You can take a break now.”

Qi Jun held his forehead, “There’s nowhere else for me to go. My brother said he doesn’t need me anymore, so he asked me to hurry back here…”

“The north is cold, why don’t you go and send winter clothes to your father and Uncle Xing?” Su Liang suggested.

Qi Jun was stunned. Su Liang had previously asked Qi Jun to visit his father in Xuanbei City when she went back to Su Village, but he refused at that time, thinking that Su Liang had no one else to rely on.

“You can discuss it with your brother again?” Su Liang waved her hand, “I’m not driving you away, just giving you a break. There’s nothing important here, and I have no plan to go back to being a general for now.”

Knowing that Su Liang truly cared for him and that he was genuinely worried about his father at the border, Qi Jun agreed, “I’ll talk to my brother and see if I should go to Xuanbei City.”

As he was about to leave, Qi Jun turned back and asked, “Master, what about you and Miss Gu?”

Su Liang smiled lightly, “What do you think?”

Qi Jun said seriously, “As long as Master likes her, it’s a match made in heaven!”

“You should also start thinking about your own marriages.” Su Liang looked at Ren Dong and then at Qi Jun, her expression serious.

Upon hearing this, Ren Dong and Qi Jun instinctively exchanged glances. Ren Dong blurted out, “Master, I’m not familiar with Qi Guard!”

Qi Jun cleared his throat, “Yes, Ren Dong is not involved with me in the way Master thinks. ”

Su Liang blinked, “What are you thinking? I meant that you should each consider your own future marriage. If you find someone you like, let me know. I’m not asking you to solve this within the two of you.”

Ren Dong looked down and counted ants.

Qi Jun looked up at the clouds.

Su Liang silently walked away.

At about noon, Qi Jun appeared again, saying that he had discussed with Qi Yan and decided to visit his father, Qi Jiang, in Xuanbei City. Actually, Xing Yusheng suggested that Qi Yan should go too, but both brothers agreed that one of them should stay and watch the home.

“The old lady is going to write a letter to the Marquis and prepare warm clothes. I’ll pick them up from Marquis Mansion later and then leave.” Qi Jun said.

Su Liang took out a package and handed it to Qi Jun.

Qi Jun accepted it, opened it, and found that it was filled with medicine, “Is this for me to defend myself?”

Su Liang shook her head, “It’s for your father. The cold weather in winter might cause a recurrence of his old injuries, remind him to keep warm and not take it lightly.”

Qi Jun and Qi Yan had previously asked Su Liang to treat Qi Jiang’s illness, so she knew his physical condition very well. He had suffered a severe injury in his youth and had never fully recovered, leaving lingering health issues.

Qi Jun felt touched, “Thank you, Master!”

“Here’s something for you.” Su Liang took out two white porcelain bottles, “One is for stopping bleeding and healing, the other is for detoxification. Take them for self-defense.”

Qi Jun hurriedly took them, “I’ll be careful on the road.”

“There’s no need to rush back. You can stay with your father and celebrate the New Year there.” Su Liang said.

Qi Jun nodded, “Okay.”

As he was leaving, Qi Jun ran into Ren Dong.

“Take care, Guard Qi.” Ren Dong said.

Qi Jun nodded, “Thank you, Miss Ren Dong. Please take care of the Master’s affairs in my absence.”

After the conversation, the two of them brushed past each other in silence.

Nowadays, many people in the capital city are paying attention to Su Liang’s pursuit of Gu Ling, which has directly led to better business for Wan Family Restaurant. Quite a few diners come here when they have nothing to do, just to enjoy the scene.

Approaching noon, besides the two street-side private rooms reserved by Gu Ling and Su Liang, the first and second floors of the Wan Family Restaurant were filled with customers.

Old Master Qin and his fun-loving second grandson, Qin Yuyan, were sitting in a private room on the second floor. Qin Yuyan kept looking out, “Why isn’t she here yet?”

Old Master Qin told him to sit down, “You should behave, or your father will beat you.”

Qin Yuyan chuckled and sat down next to Old Master Qin, “It was clearly you who wanted to come, and I’m just accompanying you out of filial piety. How come it’s my fault?”

Old Master Qin coughed lightly, “I haven’t eaten out in a long time, just wanted a change of taste.”

“You just want to see how your favorite Miss Su Liang is pursuing the beauty Gu Ling!” Qin Yuyan pointed out directly, “I also want to see. I wanted to pursue Miss Su Liang, but my father kicked me out. You all said I lacked self-awareness. Who would have thought that even the stunning and talented Miss Su Liang would be rejected one day? Haha!”

As soon as Qin Yuyan finished, Old Master Qin hit him with his cane, “Do you think you’re comparable to Gu Ling?”

Qin Yuyan looked up at the sky speechlessly, “You and my father both like the

Su Family girl. I can accept that, but what relation do you have with Gu Ling?” Old Master Qin smiled slightly, ‘Gu Ling is the one our Liang girl has her eyes

“

Qin Yuyan’s mouth twitched, “But sir! He hasn’t taken a liking to your beloved

Liang. Shouldn’t you dislike him instead?”

Old Master Qin calmly stroked his neatly trimmed beard, “That young man not taking a fancy to Liang? He must be pretending.”

Qin Yuyan: … So the point is, Liang is the best, most beautiful, and most outstanding, right? Although, admittedly, he also thinks that’s true…

“Su Liang, the Top Scholar, has arrived!”

There was a commotion at the entrance, and Qin Yuyan rushed out immediately. He saw two beautiful young ladies entering the restaurant hand in hand. They were even wearing the same material for their skirts, a light smoky purple color, but with different cuts, looking like twin sisters.

One was Su Liang, and the other was Yang Yu. Yang Yu had customized their matching sister outfits.

“That must be the rumored Miss Yang, right? She’s beautiful and capable. I have to ask Su Liang to introduce her to me.” Qin Yuyan set his sights on Yang

Yu.

When Su Liang and Yang Yu went up to the second floor under everyone’s gaze, they saw Qin Yuyan standing outside a private room, waving enthusiastically at them, “Miss Su! My grandfather is here too!”

Upon hearing this, Su Liang and Yang Yu went over together to pay their respects to Old Master Qin.

“This is Miss Yang, right? My name is Qin Yuyan. You should be familiar with my sister Yu Jin. She mentioned you before.” Qin Yuyan smiled gracefully.

Yang Yu politely greeted him, then went inside without glancing at him, following Su Liang to meet Old Master Qin.

When Old Master Qin saw Su Liang, he happily invited her and Yang Yu to sit down, telling them not to stand on ceremony.

“My grandfather came to watch how you’re pursuing Miss Gu!” As soon as Qin Yuyan opened his mouth, he “betrayed” Old Master Qin.

Old Master Qin really wanted to kick Qin Yuyan out.

Su Liang lightly laughed, “Thank you for your concern, Grandfather Qin.”

“Did you really set your sights on that Gu Family boy?” Old Master Qin asked Su Liang.

Su Liang nodded, giving a definite answer.

“Just because he’s good-looking?” Qin Yuyan asked.

Again, Su Liang nodded, “He’s exceptionally good-looking.”

Old Master Qin couldn’t help but chuckle, “You’re really quite shameless, girl!

Haha! ”

Qin Yuyan gave a thumbs up, “A heroine among women, I support you! But I have to ask, does Miss Yang have any marital arrangements?”

Yang Yu, who had been listening to Old Master Qin’s conversation with Su Liang, suddenly found herself being addressed by Qin Yuyan and was startled.

Old Master Qin skillfully picked up his cane and hit Qin Yuyan again, “All day long, causing trouble! You go stand outside, and when the Gu Family boy arrives, invite him over. Tell him I have something to talk to him about!”

Qin Yuyan silently got up and walked out. Just as he reached the door, he suddenly turned back and winked at Yang Yu.

Yang Yu immediately lowered her head, and heard Old Master Qin ask her amicably, “Does Miss Yang have any marital arrangements?”

Su Liang coughed lightly, “Not yet, but she’s not a good match for Second Young Master Qin.” Actually, there was an arrangement, but the difference in social status was a minor issue. If Nian Jincheng found out that someone was eyeing his wife, he would probably explode.

“Did you hear that? Go stand outside!” Old Master Qin waved a hand in disgust at Qin Yuyan.

Qin Yuyan actually turned around, opened the door, and left.

Old Master Qin’s expression changed instantly as he looked at Su Liang with a smile all over his face, “How about I be your matchmaker and help you get connected with that Gu Family boy?”

Su Liang smiled and said, “Thank you, Grandpa Qin. But there’s no need for now.”

“That child has always been a loner, but he’s definitely a good kid. I think you’re a good match,” Old Master Qin laughed.

Upon hearing this, Su Liang couldn’t help but ask, “Grandpa Qin, have you seen what he looked like when he was a child?”

Old Master Qin nodded, “Of course, I’ve seen him. He was even more good-looking than the fairies in the paintings. I even held him in my arms. He was not happy at that time, haha!”

An image of a disgruntled little boy appeared in Su Liang’s mind. He was still childish now, but it just didn’t show on the surface.

As they were chatting, dishes were served. With nothing else to do, Qin Yuyan stared at the door, “Is Gu beauty not coming today?” He then ordered his attendant to go outside and inquire.

Soon, the attendant returned with news, “Second Young Master, we found out that Marquis Chang Xin went to Huguo Temple today!”

Qin Yuyan entered with a playful expression, “Miss Su Liang, you see, Gu beauty knew you were coming today, so he deliberately avoided you!”

Su Liang looked “surprised” and said, “He went to Huguo Temple? I asked him yesterday to go to Huguo Temple with me to watch the clouds, but he refused.

He went anyway? Then I’ll go there now!”

Old Master Qin: … This girl is really infatuated!

Qin Yuyan: … As expected, being beautiful allows you to do whatever you want!

Yang Yu: … Knowing the truth, she had to work hard to keep calm and not laugh out loud…

“Grandpa, should we go to Huguo Temple too?” Qin Yuyan suggested excitedly.

Old Master Qin waved him over to sit down and told him not to cause any trouble. Then he turned to Su Liang and said, “Go ahead, if you really like him, capture his heart as soon as possible!”

So, although the diners in the restaurant didn’t see Gu Ling, they did see Su Liang leave again. Soon, word spread that Gu beauty went to Huguo Temple, and Su the Top Scholar chased after him.

Su Liang left without Ren Dong, and she and Yang Yu rode their horses in the direction of Huguo Temple.

It was approaching noon, and there were not many people at the foot of the Huguo Temple. They tied up their horses and climbed the steps.

As they walked, just as Yang Yu was about to talk about Nian Jincheng, she saw

Su Liang’s eyes suddenly become alert, glancing at the woods on the right.

Yang Yu immediately stopped talking and walked while recalling the self-defense techniques Su Liang had taught her.

A few more steps and two masked men suddenly appeared, blocking their path.

One of them bowed and said, “Miss Su, the Master of Yanyun Building invites you! Please come with us!”

Hearing the word “Master,” Su Liang knew that they were from Yan Shiqi’s group. Gu Ling’s message last night informed Su Liang that Yan Shiba was under Yan Shiqi’s control.

Su Liang appeared calm and said, “Many people know that I came to Huguo Temple today. If I suddenly go missing, it will cause suspicion from the emperor. Please go back and tell your Master that we’ll meet at Jingyue Lake at midnight.”

Clearly, the two masked men hadn’t expected Su Liang’s reaction. After looking at each other, they didn’t know whether they should make a move. Yan Shiqi had instructed them to take Su Liang by force if she resisted, but she didn’t resist…

In the end, the two assassins decided to report back to Yan Shiqi before leaving.

Yang Yu let out a sigh of relief, pulled Su Liang to walk quickly, and whispered,

“You should stop interacting with people from Yanyun Building in the future.

There’s nothing good about assassins.”

Yang Yu’s brother, Yang Feng, was killed by Yan Shiba. Although it was later revealed that Yang Feng wasn’t a good person, he was still the brother Yang Yu relied on. Even if Yan Shiba helped save Nian Jincheng, Yang Yu could never be friends with the likes of Yan Shiba.

Su Liang nodded, “Indeed. Don’t worry; I know what I’m doing.”

Su Liang never intentionally provoked Yan Shiba. She initially saved him to use him against Yan Sui. Later, Gu Ling was able to kill Yan Sui partly because Yan Shiba had already injured him, weakening his strength. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been easy for Gu Ling to win, and Su Liang’s safety would have been seriously threatened.

Now, Su Liang didn’t think Yan Shiba was a good person, and she always hoped that he wouldn’t harm the little monk Cheng Yun. Even when she sought Yan Shiba’s help, it was because he owed her.

“You’re not planning on saving Yan Shiba, are you?” Yang Yu still seemed worried, ‘Wouldn’t that be making enemies with the entire Yanyun Building?

It’s too dangerous.”

“It’s not because of Yan Shiba. Yan Shiqi is a madman. He first targeted Gu Ling and now me, hiding isn’t the solution,” Su Liang shook her head. “Let’s talk about it in Huguo Temple.”

Understanding her intentions, Yang Yu knew that Su Liang wanted to discuss a strategy with Gu Ling.

The two of them arrived at Huguo Temple and inquired about Gu Ling, who was with Master Pu Hui. However, Master Pu Hui had stated that he would not see any other guests that day, so Su Liang and Yang Yu were stopped.

The two then went to the temple’s Vegetarian Hall for a vegetarian meal.

The little monk familiar with Cheng Yun thought Su Liang had come to find him again, so he informed Cheng Yun, who then came over.

“Miss Su, did Little Tiger return home safely?” Cheng Yun asked Su Liang about Bai Xiaohu as soon as he saw her.

Su Liang nodded, “Yes, you can rest assured. Thank you for your help earlier.”

Cheng Yun asked if Su Liang needed his help, and she asked him to find out when Gu Ling would leave Master Pu Hui and to make sure Gu Ling went to the back mountain to meet her.

Cheng Yun was puzzled, “Miss Su, you came to find Mr. Gu?”

Su Liang nodded, “Yes, I have important matters to discuss with him.”

Cheng Yun agreed, “Alright. When Mr. Gu comes out, I will convey your message.”

After that. Su Liang took Yang Yu with her to appreciate the scenic views on the

back mountain.

Gu Ling had played several games of chess with Master Pu Hui, had a vegetarian lunch with him, drank some tea, and then took his leave.

Just as he stepped out, Cheng Yun approached him, “Mr. Gu, my dharma name is Cheng Yun. Miss Su Liang Su is looking for you, she’s waiting at the back mountain. ”

With Master Pu Hui still nearby, Gu Ling frowned slightly, “Please tell her that I don’t have time.” He then attempted to leave.

Cheng Yun furrowed his eyebrows, “Mr. Gu, you should go and see her. Miss Su must have urgent matters to discuss with you.”

Gu Ling had been worried that the honest little monk would give up after being declined, and then he would have no excuse to go to the back mountain to find Su Liang. Upon hearing Cheng Yun speak again, he sighed and shook his head,

“Fine, I will go to explain things to her.”

Cheng Yun led Gu Ling towards the back mountain, not knowing that Gu Ling was even more familiar with the area than he was.

When they reached the back mountain, they saw Su Liang and Yang Yu sitting in the pavilion.

“Miss Su, Mr. Gu has arrived.” Cheng Yun said.

Su Liang got up to greet him, “Thank you.”

Cheng Yun nodded slightly and turned to leave.

After taking a few steps back, he saw Su Liang go to grab Gu Ling’s arm, but Gu Ling avoided her touch. Cheng Yun looked puzzled, unable to understand the situation, and quickened his pace to leave.

“Marquis Gu, the desire for beauty is universal. I am not a ferocious beast, I just want to invite you to sit down.” Su Liang appeared “hurt” before suddenly lowering her voice and rapidly saying, “On the way up the mountain earlier, people from Yanyun Building approached me; I have agreed to meet Yan Shiqi at Jingyue Lake tonight at midnight.”

Gu Ling’s expression remained indifferent, “Miss Su, please have some self-respect. If you touch me again, don’t blame me for being impolite.” His tone then softened, “Don’t go.”

Su Liang sighed, “Marquis Gu, what kind of girl do you like?” Lowering her voice, “Yan Shiqi won’t let it go.”

Gu Ling’s face remained calm, “Please don’t ask such boring questions again,

Miss Su.” His voice lightened, “I will find him.”

Su Liang understood. If she did not go at that time, it was highly likely that Yan Shiqi would show up in person. If Gu Ling secretly followed Yan Shiqi, he would discover his hiding spot. As for being monitored by the Emperor, that was not an insoluble problem.

Yang Yu silently turned to look at the edge of the cliff, unable to watch the two people who were too engrossed in their act…

“Marquis Gu, I just want to be friends with you. Why must you distance yourself so much?” Su Liang’s expression was serious.

Gu Ling’s indifferent expression turned his back to Su Liang and walked away,

“I don’t want to be friends with you.”

Su Liang laughed at Gu Ling’s retreating figure, “If not friends, how about being husband and wife?”

Gu Ling paused briefly, knowing full well that Su Liang was acting, yet his heart raced. He desperately wanted to turn around and agree with a single word “Yes,” but his rationality told him that it was impossible, as it would look very strange since someone was watching in secret…

However, Gu Ling could not bring himself to say any words of rejection, so without looking back, he walked on.

Su Liang sighed as she watched his retreating figure, “What a beautiful flower on a high mountain! Sooner or later, I will pick him!” Gu Ling, who hadn’t walked far: …I hope sooner….
