Chapter 1701: Xue Rong Must Like Me Too
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. "What is it?"
Unlike Tong An’s nervousness and hesitation, Tong Shuitao was loyal to Gu Yundong, but much more at ease with her.
At this moment, she opened her bright eyes and said firmly, "I want to ask Miss to allow me to marry Xue Rong."
"Pfft..." Gu Yundong did not drink any water this time, but she choked on her own saliva. She covered her mouth and coughed hard.
Tong Shuitao hurriedly took two steps forward on her knees and reached out to pat her back.
Gu Yundong saw that she did not forget to walk on her knees even at this time and coughed even harder.
"Miss, Miss, are you okay?"
Gu Yundong waved her hand and took a while to calm down. She exhaled loudly and looked at her. "I’m fine. I was just shocked by your words."
Tong Shuitao laughed dryly. "Then, Miss, do you agree?"
Gu Yundong was speechless. "This is not a question of whether I agree or not. Let me ask you, have you taken a fancy to Xue Rong?"
"Yeah."
"What about Xue Rong? What does he mean?"
Tong Shuitao said, "I think he likes me too."
"..." Gu Yundong snorted. "You think? So he didn’t clearly tell you about this?"
Tong Shuitao looked as if Gu Yundong was saying something ridiculous. "Young Miss, I’m your maidservant. How can I discuss such a thing with Master’s attendant? Wouldn’t that be a private lesson and a mess?"
For the first time, Gu Yundong realized that this girl had a glib tongue. What she said... made sense.
She touched her forehead and looked at Tong Shuitao, who was looking at her expectantly. She exhaled and asked, "Then what do you think? Does Xue Rong like you?"
"I can tell from his usual behavior." This Tong Shuitao was exceptionally confident. She began to say confidently, "He saw that the weather was not good, so when I went out, he would remind me to bring an umbrella. When I went out and saw good things, he would buy them and give me a portion. Also, the last time we went to Wanqing Prefecture, he asked me to burn incense for his sister and tell her that he was fine. Miss, do you think he didn’t take a fancy to me? Why didn’t he ask Shao Wen to burn incense? Isn’t the meaning between the two very clear?"
Gu Yundong looked at how determined Tong Shuitao was. There was something she did not know if she should say—didn’t Xue Rong ask you to go to Wanqing Prefecture to offer incense to his sister because you knew the address?
She was speechless for a moment and looked at Tong Shuitao with a complicated gaze.
Tong Shuitao was originally full of confidence, but she inexplicably felt uneasy under her gaze. "Miss?? Did I say something wrong?"
"Cough, alright, I know what to do. When we return to the prefectural city, I’ll ask Xue Rong for his opinion." If the two of them were interested in each other, it was naturally something to be happy about.
Tong Shuitao muttered softly, "What’s the point of him? If he dares to deny it, let him see my strength."
"Huh? What did you say?" Gu Yundong only heard a buzzing sound beside her ear, and he did not hear what she meant.
Tong Shuitao shook her head repeatedly. "It’s nothing. I’ll listen to Miss."
Gu Yundong exhaled. "Can you get up now?"
Tong Shuitao stood up without another word and obediently poured Gu Yundong a cup of tea.
Seeing that there was no one in the room, she asked softly, "Miss, can my second uncle and Miss Shen get married?"
"Do you want it to work?"
