Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife – o

An Yiqing swiftly turned around and saw Gu Yelin, slightly out of breath. He was wearing a long black coat, his hurried arrival evident from the frost on his shoulders.

"Xiao Gu? Weren’t you supposed to be on a mission?" Kong Shi and An Zisheng were surprised.

"I finished early." Gu Yelin’s words were directed at Kong Shi and An Zisheng, but his eyes were fixed on An Yiqing, not moving an inch.

Seeing the girl’s slightly reddened eyes, Gu Yelin couldn’t care less that his in-laws were still present. He pulled An Yiqing into his embrace. The familiar, cold aura enveloped her, with Gu Yelin’s chest as warm as ever. Tightly held, a smile involuntarily appeared on An Yiqing’s lips.

Witnessing this, An Zisheng, who adored his daughter, turned red-eyed immediately. He rolled up his sleeves to rush forward, but Kong Shi quickly grabbed him, dragging him to the main door, leaving the space to the long-separated lovers, Gu Yelin and An Yiqing.

In the airport, the tall man and the slender girl held each other tightly. The man’s eyebrows were sharp, but his eyes were full of tenderness. He gently stroked the girl’s soft hair, treating her like the most precious treasure in the world.

"Were you on a mission?" An Yiqing’s soft voice came from within his arms.

"Yes, finished early, came back to pick you up."

Warmth filled An Yiqing’s heart, and she held Gu Yelin even tighter. She could picture him, working tirelessly just to see her as soon as possible. Just one sentence dispelled all the sadness of their two-month separation.

"Let’s go home. Grandma made something delicious." Gu Yelin released the girl, holding her face gently as he spoke.

Indeed, the girl’s eyes brightened, nodding rapidly like a pecking chick. Gu Yelin’s lips curled into a gentle smile. With one hand, he grabbed the luggage, and with the other, he held An Yiqing as they strode towards the exit.

At the An Family Villa, An Yiqing’s return naturally received unanimous welcome from the An Family. Long Zixuan and the four others, seeing the excitement, all jumped out from the other space, blending in joyfully with everyone.

"I said it, Niuniu loses a few pounds every time she goes out. Look at this little face, barely filled out a few months ago, now thin again." Old Lady An, most concerned for her granddaughter, stroked An Yiqing’s pointed chin while lamenting, "Niuniu, our family has enough money. Don’t tire yourself out. If things get tough, let your big brother or second brother help out, just take care of yourself."

An Yiqing, smiling, grabbed Old Lady An’s hand, "Grandma, doing these things makes me happy even if it’s tiring. On this trip to Country Zi, Niuniu accomplished a lot!"

"I heard it from your grandpa; our Niuniu is amazing!" Old Lady An beamed with pride. As an old revolutionary, she was overjoyed by her granddaughter’s significant contributions to the country. Yet, amidst the joy, the thought of her granddaughter’s hard work brought her heartache.

An Yiqing comforted the old lady but kept her eyes observing everyone. Yin Xilin and Tiezhu were present, but there was no sign of Gu Tingting, who often visited her in-laws.

"Where’s Tingting? Why isn’t she here?"

Just moments ago, An Zhihang, who was smiling, instantly put on a mournful face. Old Master An and Old Lady An’s expressions turned somber, but An Zhiyan was grinning like a fox.

Seeing this, An Yiqing raised an eyebrow, "What happened? Did they have a fight?"

An Zhihang, with a wry smile, was about to speak when Old Master An interrupted with a cold snort.

"Hmph! A fight? I wish it were just a fight! This fool did something ungrateful and got dumped!" Old Master An, looking disappointed, suddenly turned to glare at An Zisheng, "It’s all your fault! So clever yourself, but how did you raise such a foolish kid? Tingting’s a good girl, and you let her get hurt!"

Unjustly blamed, An Zisheng felt wronged but dared not argue with the old man, resorting to silently glaring at his eldest son in protest.

An Yiqing, even more puzzled, asked, "What do you mean by ’hurt her feelings’?"

"Big brother, did you cheat? Can’t be, right?" She trusted her big brother’s character and found it improbable. Although Gu Tingting was quirky, she wasn’t unreasonable. What was going on?

An Zhihang sighed with a wry smile, "It’s a long story, little sister. I was framed."

An Yiqing frowned, sensing something amiss, "What happened? Explain in detail."

Through An Zhihang’s detailed account, An Yiqing learned the truth of the matter.
