After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 388

Life on the march was rough. For such a young master who had been pampered since childhood, to endure the harsh conditions on the border was truly difficult.

Gu Ying smiled lightly. "Joining the army is quite good."

She remembered in his previous life he had built up great military achievements, and single-handedly restored the precarious Yong'an Marquis Manor.

Su He could not see Gu Ying's expression but could hear her calm, gentle voice. She was so composed, clearly showing no romantic feelings for his nephew.

He hesitated for a long while before finally saying, "He's doing well on the border. He even went to visit your father recently and received guidance from General Gu. He almost became the son-in-law of my revered father-in-law. General Gu really likes him and taught him a set of spear techniques, saying it would be great if he was his son-in-law."

Gu Ying's mouth twitched. "My father can be so magnanimous?"

Ever since reconnecting with her father through letters, she had solemnly informed him again about her engagement to the heir of the Zhenguo Duke Manor.

Previously her letters had all been intercepted by her grandmother at the Bo Manor.

Her father had no idea she was married. Upon finding out, he wrote back a thick stack of letters to "lecture" her on why she did not inform him sooner! For such a big event as marriage, as her father he not only did not recognize his son-in-law, he was not even present!

After "reprimanding" her, he further expressed his dissatisfaction and dislike of Adu in the letter.

He said that when he returns to the capital to report on his duties by the new year, he will be sure to have a good long chat about life with Adu.

Even from thousands of miles away, she could feel the distaste in his tone. It's said that the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him. It seems her father was no exception!

Gu Ying helplessly hooked the corners of her lips. "My father will like Adu. Adu is no worse than the young marquis."

Su He chuckled. "In any case, the future of my Su family rests on him bringing glory. In the past he was a useless playboy, but now he has finally grown into an outstanding youth, fighting one against ten on the battlefield, and has won honors in several surprise attacks against the enemy. His father and I are quite gratified."

Hearing this, Gu Ying happily narrowed her eyes.

"He will be an outstanding son who brings glory. He will also protect Dong Li's people from the ravages of war. In the future he will be the hero in the hearts of the common people."

Su He casually laughed. "You're so certain?"

Gu Ying affirmed with a slight smile, recalling the prudent and wise Marquis Su Huanfeng from the previous life. With utmost sincerity she said, "Yes, I just know he's that kind of person."

Blinded, Su He was extremely pleased, the corners of his lips raised high. "That's right, this is the kind of man my Su family raises."

In this life he would never be able to walk in the public eye. From the moment he became the successor of the Su family, he was destined to live his entire life unable to inherit the glory of the Yong'an Marquis Manor like Su Huanfeng, to take up that long spear, and fight with the Qiang Tribe People.

But he would make every preparation and leave an escape route for the Su family.

Just as Gu Ying was about to agree, she suddenly felt her body go weightless as she was swept up tightly into an embrace.

She was about to cry out when the man's cold gaze swept over.

It sent chills down her spine. She didn't know how she offended him. Seeing his unpleasant expression as dark as the bottom of a pot, she swallowed her words.

"Su He, get out."

Su He was stunned. "Adu, you're back-- Ah!"

Before he could finish speaking, he was kicked out into the yard by a sweeping leg attack. Unable to see, he cursed the empty yard.

"What did I do to offend you! Why did you kick me? Can't you see I'm still recovering from an illness? I'm still blind! Have some compassion for the disabled!"

After being blinded, he had become much more lovable.

Gu Ying secretly laughed behind her hand at the scene. The man holding her lowered his long lashes. "Funny?"

Gu Ying met the man's jealous eyes. "Pretty funny."

"From now on, don't come see him when he's changing his medicine."

"Adu, I just randomly dropped by to take a look."

"Even randomly is not allowed. He's not worthy."

Su He's mouth twitched as he crawled up from the ground. Shouting loudly he called, "Na Yuan! Na Yuan! Na Yuan! Where are you?"

But Na Yuan hadn't come at all. With no one to help him up, he fled on his own, afraid that a certain ruthless death god would take out his anger on him.

It was just a casual mention of Huanfeng, was there a need to be so jealous?

Zhao Changdu was hopeless! Completely henpecked by a woman, useless!

The yard emptied out. Gu Ying carefully hooked the man's slender neck, blinking her eyes. "Adu, you're not actually jealous are you? Don't worry, I don't like Su He, and I don't like Su Huanfeng either."

The man's brows sunk. "But you praised him."

Gu Ying blinked blankly. "He is...quite the big hero after all."

Zhao Changdu didn't speak, silently carrying her from Lingxi Pavilion back to Changfeng Pavilion.

The man's body emanated a keep-your-distance chill that the maidservants along the way couldn't avoid fast enough.

Until the sound of a "bang".

The main chamber doors of Changfeng Pavilion were tightly shut.

Shortly after, faint pleas for mercy and hurried gasps could be heard from the room.

"Tell me, who is your hero?"

Gu Ying's breathing hitched. Her mind already muddled by his actions, she answered between alluring, glistening red lips, "Just...random...praise...Adu...mm..."

"Just randomly?"

He saw her completely sincere expression when she spoke those words.

"Really...why would I...lie to you..."

"..."

"Adu, be gentle...our baby..."

"Slow...down..."

Gu Ying looked up at the man's flushed handsome face. When met with his searing gaze, she timidly looked away.

Her slender, fair hand gripped his lean muscles tighter and tighter as he moved.

The man gazed at her shy, blushing cheeks, dangerously narrowing his dark eyes. He leaned down, avoiding her belly, and kissed her lips and chin.

After a period of such entanglement, Gu Ying could barely withstand it anymore.

Her breathing grew ragged, her entire body went limp and powerless as she fell back into the brocade quilts.

The gilded embroidered silk canopy above swayed again and again.

She really could not take it anymore and tearfully begged for mercy, clinging to his strong waist for a long time before he finally gave a muffled grunt and finished.

Gu Ying was completely spent. Her delicate arms softly slid from his back and fell to the sheets.

Her brows were scented red, eyes glazed with misty moisture. "Adu, what are you so afraid of?"

Zhao Changdu's body froze. He put on a robe, slipped under the sheets, and gathered the little girl in his arms. "Nothing to fear, just always feel like I stole his woman."

So he felt guilty deep down.

Gu Ying glared at him. She angrily bit his nose. "I'm not his woman."
