Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 483 How Can I Not Remember

Afterwards, the banquet continued, but no one dared to mention Lu Rui's former slave status.

After receiving the jade, the queen was so happy that she drank a few more cups.

Eunuch Li next to him reminded him, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician said you shouldn't drink too much right now. You've already had several drinks."

"It's okay. I know my body well."

Having said that, the empress asked Eunuch Li to quietly replace the wine with tea.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was drunk.

When Bai Xuan also wanted to taste the wine, a hand held her down.

"Brother Emperor, I will only drink one glass, not more."

Bai Xuan looked at Lu Rui pitifully.

She smelled the wine and it was very fragrant, so she wanted to try it too.

Helplessly, Lu Rui poured her half a cup. Bai Xuan picked it up and took a sip, then choked and started coughing.

"It's so spicy...I need some water."

She didn't expect that the wine smelled good but tasted so pungent.

And she only took one bite, and now she felt a burning sensation in her throat.

Bai Xuan gushed down a few drops of water and ate some vegetables before she felt the food wasn't so spicy anymore.

It was not until the end of the banquet, when everyone was about to go back, that the Queen suggested placing Lu Rui and the others in the Sifang Pavilion.

"Young Master Gu."

The nominated Gu Qingyuan hurriedly stepped forward.

The Queen continued, "I know you are an old friend of the new emperor of the Holy Land, so today you will escort them to the Sifang Pavilion."

"According to the order."

When they arrived outside the palace, the ministers began to leave the palace one after another.

Gu Qingyuan stood there, waiting for the people from the Holy Land Kingdom to come out.

The last time Bai Xuan came here, she stayed at Sifang Pavilion. This time, she didn't need anyone to lead her there, as she could find the way to Sifang Pavilion.

However, in the end, the Queen sent Gu Qingyuan to take them to Sifang Pavilion.

Bai Xuan's emotions were written all over her face. When she learned about this, she ran towards her happily.

"Royal sister-in-law!"

Gu Qingyuan caught Bai Xuan who was running towards her. Bai Xuan was only at her chest. At this moment, Bai Xuan suddenly raised her head and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you still remember me?"

"How could you not remember?"

Bai Xuan is rather outgoing and simple-minded, and her emotions are written all over her face.

Moreover, she looks very similar to Lu Rui, and one can tell at a glance that they are siblings.

On the way to Sifang Pavilion, Bai Xuan proudly told Gu Qingyuan that she was now with Xuelang, and they would get married when they returned this time.

Gu Qingyuan glanced calmly at the man who was following Lu Rui and protecting him, but was also paying attention to Bai Xuan's every move.

Could he be the Snow Wolf?

Sure enough, Bai Xuan pulled him over to greet her again, and Gu Qingyuan smiled at him politely.

He seems to be a steady person, and since Lu Rui agreed to Bai Xuan's marriage with him, I think he must have investigated him.

The group arrived at Sifang Pavilion smoothly.

Sifang Pavilion had already been cleaned up before the people from the Holy Land Kingdom arrived.

They could just move in now.

Lu Rui didn't say a word the whole time, but he was struggling in his heart about how to start.

It was not until Gu Qingyuan said, "I want to go back," that Lu Rui suddenly looked at her.

They hadn't spoken today and couldn't let her go.

Bai Xuan said without thinking: "Sister-in-law, my brother has a lot to say to you, so, can you stay for a while?"

A smile unconsciously appeared on Lu Rui's lips, and he knew that this sister was not raised in vain.

"Well, then you guys go back first. I still have something to say to the new emperor of the Holy Land."

Gu Qingyuan turned around and said to the person who came with her.

In addition to her, there were actually several palace guards who came to escort the people from the Holy Land Kingdom to Sifang Pavilion.

After hearing this, those people left.

Bai Xuan also left with the snow wolf, leaving Lu Rui and Gu Qingyuan standing there.

The two were silent for a moment, and then spoke at the same time.

"that……"

"that……"

Gu Qingyuan burst out laughing, "I didn't expect that we two have such good tacit understanding."

Lu Rui smiled sincerely and nodded, "Yes."

The two chatted while walking near Sifang Pavilion.

From being reserved at the beginning to becoming natural later on.

"By the way, are you doing well in the Sanctuary?"

Although the two had communicated through letters before, Gu Qingyuan felt that writing letters was different from chatting in person.

"I'm fine, but you..."

In front of Gu Qingyuan, Lu Rui unconsciously changed the way he called himself.

"Me? Of course I'm good too. No one in the capital dares to bully me."

Gu Qingyuan said with a smile.

"That's good. If you have any difficulties later, you can tell me..."

As long as she opens her mouth, he will definitely choose to stand on her side and help her.

"Don't worry, you've been traveling for such a long time, you must be tired, why don't you go back and have a good sleep first?"

Lu Rui's eyes were fixed on her, and he was reluctant to look away.

"I'm not tired, and I rested in the carriage."

He cherished the time he spent with her immensely.

If anyone from the Holy Land saw this scene, they would be shocked.

The man who was so powerful and decisive in the court was now just like an ordinary man, feeling uneasy in front of his beloved woman.

Suddenly, Gu Qingyuan raised his hand.

When Lu Rui was wondering what she was going to do, she saw her pick up a fallen leaf that fell on her head.

Although the weather is still hot now, it is the beginning of autumn and the leaves are starting to turn yellow.

He couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or something else in his heart.

Gu Qingyuan asked him again: "By the way, what's the matter between Bai Xuan and that snow wolf?"

Lu Rui recalled: "Actually, I didn't quite understand why Xiao Xuan liked him before, but since it was her choice, I couldn't interfere with her."

Some of the other princesses were already married, and those who were not married were also arranged to marry by him.

But Bai Xuan is his sister from the same mother, and he hopes that Bai Xuan can be happy.

"Yeah, but Xuelang seems to be a reliable person. Bai Xuan will be happy with him."

Before they knew it, the two of them had already walked some distance away from Sifang Pavilion.

Lu Rui just wanted to stay with her a little longer.

"By the way, I've kept your room for you."

Lu Rui was stunned and slowly recalled the time when he lived in Gu's house.

He asked, "Can I go back with you tonight?"

"Of course you can, but your status is different now, so I'm afraid you might find it shabby."

These words pierced his heart like a needle.

Lu Rui quickly shook his head and said, "No, it won't."

That's where I've lived for several years, how could I dislike it?

And just like that, they returned to the Gu family.

Standing at the door, Lu Rui looked at the familiar door, strange emotions welling up in his heart.
