Chapter 105 Rumors are circulating in the streets and alleys that the young master is impotent.
Seeing her angry expression, Gu Junze not only wasn't angry, but instead chuckled.
In his eyes, Chu Ruohan's expression was extremely lively at this moment, and he coaxed her gently, "I made Madam angry, so naturally I have to find a way to coax her."
As he spoke, his expression gradually became serious. He looked earnestly into Chu Ruohan's eyes and said, "I was wrong. I will never mention divorce again."
In this world, men are superior to women, and even the legal wife is considered an appendage of a man.
Gu Junze's sincere admission of his mistake already surpassed that of most men. However, Chu Ruohan was unwilling to forgive him so easily.
She forcefully pushed Gu Junze away, got off the bed, and said coldly, "Since the young master likes this room, then let's leave it to him."
After saying that, she turned and left without the slightest hesitation.
When Gu Junze saw that she was really going to leave, he panicked and tried to reach out to pull her back, but he accidentally rolled off the bed and onto the floor with a muffled groan.
Hearing the sound, Chu Ruohan was startled and instinctively turned around. She saw Gu Junze lying disheveled on the ground, her voice tinged with anxiety: "Why were you so reckless? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Seeing the anxious look in her eyes, Gu Junze feigned pitifulness and said, "You landed on your knees first. I think you've cleared it up. Take a look."
She crouched down and gently rolled up the man's trouser leg, revealing a patch of redness and swelling on his long, fair leg.
Chu Ruohan frowned. She quickly called Ying Qing in and said, "Carry the young master back to bed. I can't move him."
Then he instructed Yuling to fetch the medicinal wine.
She wanted to call Dr. Qian, but Gu Junze stopped her. "There's no need to make such a fuss."
Yu Ling quickly brought the medicinal wine. Gu Junze gestured for Ying Qing and Yu Ling to leave.
Only he and Chu Ruohan remained in the room. Chu Ruohan sat on the edge of the bed, carefully applying medicated wine to his wounds. Her movements were gentle, and her eyes were full of concern.
Gu Junze looked at her, his eyes flickering, and said again, "I was really wrong, Madam, please forgive me this time?"
Chu Ruohan hadn't actually intended to continue the cold war with him. She looked up at Gu Junze's sincere eyes and nodded gently.
Gu Junze was overjoyed. He pulled her into his arms and then lowered his head to kiss her.
Although they had not consummated their marriage, the feeling of being alone in an empty room was too unbearable. Gu Junze had long been used to her being by his side and no longer wanted to toss and turn in bed alone.
This kiss was filled with his apology, longing, and love.
The moonlight, as clear as water, filtered through the thin curtains and gently fell upon the carved bed.
Chu Ruohan lay quietly in Gu Junze's arms, her cheeks flushed with a hint of passion.
She shifted slightly, adjusting to a more comfortable position, and then said, "I really like Xuan-ge'er. Shall we adopt him?"
Since that incident, Aunt Li has not brought Xuan-ge over again. I wonder if Aunt Li is unwilling?
After all, they are one's own flesh and blood. What mother would be willing to give her child away? It's only natural that she would be reluctant.
Thinking of this, a hint of loneliness flashed in Chu Ruohan's eyes.
Gu Junze was slightly taken aback when he heard Chu Ruohan's words. He lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms, his eyes full of tenderness and doting.
He gently stroked Chu Ruohan's hair and said softly, "Actually, we can have one ourselves."
He had come to terms with it completely; even if he were paralyzed for the rest of his life, he didn't want to give up on Chu Ruohan.
Gu Junze waited for a while, but seeing no movement, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
He looked down slightly and saw that Chu Ruohan had closed her eyes. Her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her cheeks, and her even breathing indicated that she had fallen asleep.
She still looked tired, probably because she had been working too hard today.
Gu Junze shook his head helplessly, but a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
He gently pulled the blanket up and carefully covered Chu Ruohan with it, afraid of waking her.
He gazed quietly at Chu Ruohan's sleeping face, his eyes filled with tenderness...
As night fell over the capital and the city lights began to twinkle, the Hua Jin Lou was a scene of extravagance and debauchery.
The sounds of string and wind instruments filled the air, along with the rich aroma of wine and perfume.
Gu Jiacheng was sitting in a private room on the second floor, already completely drunk, with glazed eyes and a flushed face.
A beautiful woman with a graceful figure was nestled beside him. He had one arm tightly around her waist, while the other held a wine glass, taking sips of wine every now and then.
He slurred and boasted to the equally drunk young nobleman beside him, "Do you know what? My son Xuan is something else! He's been taken a liking to the Marquis of Anyang's mansion, so he'll be the Marquis of Anyang from now on! Haha, and me? I'm the old master!"
As he spoke, he gave the beauty a hard kiss on the cheek, which made her playfully slap him.
Upon hearing this, the young nobleman immediately became interested. Although he was also quite drunk, he still forced himself to ask, "Really? This is a big deal! Don't try to fool me."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jiacheng became displeased and slammed his wine glass heavily onto the table.
"Would I lie to you? My son Xuan is incredibly lucky to have caught the eye of the Marquis of Anyang's family, and I, as his father, can also benefit from it."
As he spoke, he gestured wildly, splashing a lot of wine.
In this noisy atmosphere, these words were spread.
The Hua Jin Lou was already crowded and noisy, and these words were even more explosive: the heir of the Marquis of Anyang's mansion could not have children and had to adopt a son.
It spread like wildfire through the streets and alleys of the capital.
The next morning, as soon as the sunlight shone on the bluestone streets of the capital, the news had already spread throughout the entire city.
In the streets and alleys, people were whispering and talking about the "hidden illness" of the Marquis of Anyang's heir.
Chu Ruohan was having breakfast at the Marquis's residence when she heard the news.
Her chopsticks froze in her hand, her face instantly darkening, her eyes filled with anger. "Who leaked this news?"
Yu Ling hurriedly walked in, curtsied slightly, and then quickly reported, "Young Madam, yesterday, the third Master Gu's son, Jia Cheng, got drunk at Hua Jin Lou and talked nonsense, saying that you want to adopt Xuan Ge'er and that Xuan Ge'er will inherit the Marquis's mansion in the future."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ruohan felt a surge of anger rush to her head. "That idiot!" she couldn't help but curse. "How could Xuan-ge'er have such a stupid and incompetent father?"
How can we spread rumors about this before it's even been confirmed?
Moreover, Gu Junze has not yet agreed to adopt Xuan Ge'er.
This blatant propaganda is undoubtedly putting the Crown Prince in a position of being the target of public criticism.
Even if Gu Junze agrees, Marquis Anyang may not be willing.
What a terrible teammate, more trouble than good.
