Chapter 527 What should I do if my husband travels to the modern world?
The sky was getting darker and darker. At Shaoguangyuan, Sheng Huan was writing or drawing something in the study.
"Madam, it's getting dark. Please rest your eyes first."
The painter came in with a candle and lit a few more lamps, and the room suddenly became brighter.
Sheng Huan's eyes flashed with this light, and she reacted. She looked out the window and smiled, "It's already so late, no wonder my wrist is a little sore."
"Madam is in deep thought. I will massage your shoulders for you."
As Shihua spoke, she came over.
Sheng Huan did not refuse. She sat on the chair and asked, "Is my husband back?"
When she asked about Gu Chongguang, there was always a smile in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, especially her good looks, that kind of gentleness and joy always made people's eyes bright.
Upon hearing this, Shi Hua shook her head and nodded, saying, "Madam, I heard from the servants who were sweeping the front yard that the Second Master came back this afternoon, but then left the house in a hurry. I think it must be something urgent."
"Is it an emergency?"
"Yes, ma'am. The second master is a general. He has been staying in the military camp almost all the time. He should be there by now."
Sheng Huan nodded: "It is indeed important if it is urgent."
However, Pu Hua told Sheng Huan that Gu Chongguang met Gu Hengqing before he left. The conversation between the two brothers did not sound unusual, but rather like a joke. Sheng Huan did not take it seriously at first.

Qingfengyuan.
Gu Hengqing returned to his study to handle official business.
The butler came over. He had a kind smile, but every time he smiled, the wrinkles on his face wrinkled together. It was not ugly, but rather very kind. He bowed and said:
"My Lord, dinner is ready. Please eat something before you get busy."
Gu Hengqing looked over, his eyes passed Butler Shi and fell on Xuantian behind him. Xuantian lowered his head.
The Marquis was very busy with official duties, and he was always busy for a long time and went to bed late at night. Xuantian was afraid that his master could not handle it, so he had to let Butler Shi take over.
Gu Hengqing finally gave him face. He closed the document and said, "Well, go to the front."
When the butler heard this, he was happy and responded with an "ah hey".
As the master and servants walked forward, Butler Shi was talking because of excitement. Then he thought of something and sighed heavily.
Gu Hengqing looked over, and without him having to ask, Butler Shi said:
"My Lord, you don't know that the Second Master is really busy. Today is only the third day of his wedding, and he has gone to the military camp again. I don't know if the Second Madam is adapting well to it."
Gu Hengqing's eyes flickered slightly. Chongguang actually left?
-
Sheng Huan initially thought that Gu Chongguang would be back soon, but he didn't expect that he would be gone for more than half a month. If you didn't know, you would think he was very busy.
On the way, he sent his personal bodyguard Ling Bei to take away the list of Sheng Huan's property.
Ling Bei bowed and said, "Madam, I will take my leave now."
"Wait." Sheng Huan stopped him and asked softly: "Ling Bei, are you busy going over there?"
"Madam, I am not busy in the past, but now it is getting dark, and I have to go back before the city gate closes." Ling Bei was puzzled, but answered truthfully.
"Okay." Sheng Huan pinched her fingers and said softly: "My husband hasn't returned home for many days, and I don't know how he is doing outside. I know my husband has everything he needs in the military camp, but... wait for me."
She emphasized: “Just for a moment.”
She hurriedly took out a box, took out an envelope, wrote something on it, and stuffed it into the box.

in the military camp.
When Ling Bei came back, he found his master in the room.
"Second Master." He bowed and presented the booklet: "This is the list of property given by the Madam."
The room was a little dim with only two lamps on. Gu Chongguang opened the booklet. As he read on, his features gradually grew colder. From a certain angle, he looked almost exactly like Gu Hengqing, with his expressionless face.
"Su Ronglie and the others are so disgusting."
He took so many things from my wife's house, yet he treated her like that.
Thinking of the information his men had found out these days, Gu Chongguang didn't dare to imagine what kind of life Sheng Huan had lived in the Su Mansion before.
He suppressed his emotions and calmed himself down: "You go down."
Ling Bei didn't move, and handed over another box. He put the box on the table and said, "Second Master, before I go back home today, Madam asked me to bring you something."
Gu Chongguang's eyes subconsciously fell on the box, and it seemed that there was no change.
"Did the Madam give any instructions?"
Ling Bei shook his head, but he told her about what happened to Sheng Huan in the mansion: "Madam was afraid that I would miss the time to leave the city, so she just asked me to bring the box over in a hurry, and didn't say anything else."
Gu Chongguang didn't know whether he was satisfied or not, he said: "Go down."
"Yes."
After Ling Bei left, Gu Chongguang continued to look at the military map, but this time, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't concentrate. His fingers unconsciously curled around the title page and never moved.
He was obviously distracted. What if, he thought, what if she had something that she couldn't tell Ling Bei, so she gave him the box...
What if I miss something if I don't watch it myself...
Besides, it was just opening a box, what big a deal could it be? The confusion on the man’s face finally faded away.
Finally, after an unknown amount of time, he reached out and opened the box.
At this time, there was a sachet and a bag of pastries lying quietly in the box.
But Gu Chongguang's eyes fell on the envelope above.
The short four words "My husband personally wrote this" were obviously written in a hurry with flying strokes, but as Gu Chongguang looked at them, he felt that they were very warm.
He opened the envelope so carefully that he didn't even notice it.
When I opened it, I saw only a few words, still written hastily, but the urgent muttering and piety seemed to be right in front of me.
[My dear, be well. Don't be too tired.]
Gu Chongguang held the thin piece of letter paper in his hand, and he seemed to be able to flash before his eyes the expression on her face when she wrote these words. Even if she was in a hurry, she must have been very serious.
There must be a smile in her eyes. When she smiles, it is very soft, yet has a contradictory brilliance.
His heart was beating again. Gu Chongguang had not expected that just a few words could cause his heart to surge again.
He pressed his chest, thinking that the person on the other end might be able to sense the secret happiness that belonged only to him. The man's eyes grew dim in the darkness, and after an unknown amount of time, he finally calmed down.
He and she, he held the letter tightly and closed his eyes tightly...

Hou Mansion, Shaoguang Courtyard.
Sheng Huan, who was already sleeping on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.
She began to ponder.
[Gu Chongguang is a little weird. Does he really want to stay in the military camp until he can wear modern clothes?]
458 Hearing this, he chatted with Sheng Huan: [Host, isn’t it because Gu Chongguang is the male lead, and he is the male lead without a CP, and he will definitely travel through time in the future, so all the feelings are suppressed? ]
[That makes sense, but...] Sheng Huan thought carefully after hearing what 458 said, and frowned: [But I feel like Gu Chongguang is not someone who would suppress his emotions. People like him should be wanton, passionate, and really go for it...]
458 doesn’t understand either.
Finally, 458 racked his brains and came up with an idea.
[Host, why don't you try to provoke him? Isn't his brother Gu Hengqing in the mansion? They look exactly the same. Host, if you admit your mistake and shout, Gu Chongguang might get jealous and run back.]
Sheng Huan was calm, and even yawned: "Let me see. After all, I have been in the Marquis' Mansion for more than half a month, and except for the day when I went to pay my respects, I have never met Gu Hengqing."
458 was not in a hurry. It said: [Anyway, there are still eleven months before Gu Chongguang travels through time. The host can take his time. We are not in a hurry.]
