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

Chapter 225 Mermaid

Gu family.

After Gu Qingyuan returned, she first went to see Ji Mingzhao and An An.

After seeing her, Ji Mingzhao said happily: "Wife, you are here."

"Yes."

She smiled and looked around the room, and saw Liushui sitting in front of the crib, coaxing An An.

He knew a few words and could sing off-tune songs to entertain children.

Liu Shui wanted to stand up and salute, but Gu Qing said, "No need, it's enough for you to take good care of An An. I'm not someone who cares about such etiquette."

Liushui sat back down and listened silently to the conversation between Gu Qingyuan and Ji Mingzhao, with him acting as a background.

"By the way, I heard that my wife just entered the palace. Did something happen in the palace?"

"It's not the palace, but there was a flood in southern Xinjiang."

"flood?"

"Yeah, I heard that everyone was evacuated. This flood came so suddenly..."

At first, everyone thought it was just ordinary rain, but they never expected that the rain would continue endlessly, and the river water level rose a lot.

"So, Your Majesty asked my wife to come to the palace just to let her resolve this matter?"

"How clever," Gu Qingyuan praised him, making Ji Mingzhao feel a little embarrassed. "But I won't be alone. Her Highness the Princess will also go with me."

Ji Mingzhao said with a worried look on his face: "I heard that there is usually a plague after a flood. My wife is going there, so she must pay attention to safety!"

"Don't worry." Gu Qingyuan held his hand and comforted him.

"I will definitely pay attention. I won't be home then. If you have any questions, you can ask someone to write to me."

Ji Mingzhao shook his head and said, "What can happen at home? We won't distract my wife."

After a while, he asked again: "When does my wife plan to leave?"

"It should be in three days."

"Three days later... What a rush!"

"Yes, even if we rush over there, it will take time. Besides, the flood can't be delayed any longer."

Ji Mingzhao leaned against her and said no more, but his eyes were full of concern and reluctance.

After Wen Shubai found out, he personally prepared her luggage. Seeing him packing his own clothes, Gu Qingyuan said sourly, "Why do I feel like you're eager to kick me out?"

He paused as he packed his clothes and said helplessly, "I just thought my wife would be leaving in three days, so I prepared everything in advance to avoid leaving anything behind."

Gu Qingyuan pressed her face against his back and hugged him from behind.

Wen Shubai's body stiffened for a moment, and he said, "Wife?"

"Well, I'm here."

"I've prepared some thicker clothes for my wife, so she won't get cold in the rain. I also have some medicine ready..."

He was thoughtful and prepared everything that might be used for Gu Qingyuan.

So what appeared in front of Gu Qingyuan was a huge package.

Gu Qingyuan jokingly said, "Why do I feel like you're almost putting yourself in there?"

He muttered quietly, "I'd like to, but my wife will definitely find out."

"What did you say?"

His voice was too soft and Gu Qingyuan couldn't hear it clearly.

"I said I have everything ready. My wife, please see if there is anything else you need to bring. I will prepare it all."

"I don't think it's necessary, right?"

She was there for disaster relief, not for vacation, so she just needed to bring a few changes of clothes.

"It's okay, there's still time. As long as you didn't forget anything on the way out, it'll be fine."

However, Wen Shubai's words also reminded Gu Qingyuan.

Plague is indeed likely to occur after a flood, and you can ask the Queen to bring two imperial physicians with you then.

While Gu Qingyuan was thinking, her waist was suddenly hugged, and then his furry head was close to her neck. Wen Shubai said a little aggrievedly: "Wife, I can't bear to leave you!"

The last time she went to southern Xinjiang, she was away for several months. He couldn't enter her dream and thought something had happened to her.

Fortunately, she came back safely in the end.

Now, she was going to that place again, which made him very worried.

"Don't worry, I will come back as soon as I finish dealing with things over there." Gu Qingyuan assured him.

Wen Shubai suddenly moved his head away from her neck, then he took the initiative to move closer to her and slowly kissed her lips.

Gu Qingyuan didn't expect that he would actually kiss her on his own initiative this time. The familiar breath made her forget to think for a moment.

Every time he was with Wen Shubai, he could always smell the pleasant fragrance coming from him.

This time is no exception.

The two kissed passionately, and Gu Qingyuan slowly closed her eyes.

After that, it was unknown how long it took for the two to separate.

Wen Shubai bit her cheek again and said, "My wife, you must remember to think of me."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely miss you."

Only then did he laugh.

Three days passed in a flash, and Gu Qingyuan took the prepared things and set off for southern Xinjiang with the princess.

The people of the Gu family kept watching her leave until the carriage went farther and farther away, leaving only a cloud of dust.

Southern Xinjiang at this time.

The people were trying hard to get to the upper reaches, but their houses had already been flooded. The elderly and children who had no time to run were washed away and struggled in the water, not knowing where they would be washed to.

To make matters worse, the rain has not stopped. People say spring rain is as precious as oil, but this rain now is a major disaster for them.

A long river that leads directly to the sea.

There was suddenly movement on the water surface, as if something was about to emerge from the water.

Then, a man with white hair and even white eyelashes emerged from underneath.

His eyes were light blue, like blue gemstones, his long white hair was loose and stuck to his back, and his skin had a pearly sheen.

And that face was enough to make the world lose its color, but the originally good-looking face was now full of confusion.

"Wow, why is it still raining?"

The man swam from the river to the shore, and then something shocking happened.

His lower body is not legs but a fish tail, and his scales are colorful white and reflective.

There was no one around, so he had nothing to worry about.

"It's so annoying to have it raining every day. I've been suffocating underwater lately. It's so hard to come up for some air."

Mermaids are not completely fish and cannot breathe underwater like fish.

After taking a breath for a while on the shore, there was suddenly a thunder, which scared the man so much that he immediately jumped into the water again.

After a while, he cautiously stuck his head out and observed his surroundings. Another muffled thunder made him retract his head.

There would always be thunder whenever he stuck his head out of the water, and the thunder would stop when he sank to the bottom of the water.

After sleeping for more than ten years, this was the first time he saw such heavy rain.

He didn't expect that he would encounter a flood shortly after waking up.
