Chapter 562  Incomplete (4)

In comparison, his previous duties as an imperial guard mostly involved staying in the palace, which could be considered relatively idle. On the other hand, the responsibilities of the Commandant of the Capital were much more demanding, and the burden was greater. However, Gu Yuan seemed spirited and energetic.

"I'll take office the day after tomorrow." Gu Yuan nodded, his eyes burning like an arrogant sun.

Gu Yanfei actually knew that her brother couldn't stay idle, and was just saying it to make him laugh.

Seeing Gu Yuan's energetic appearance, Gu Yanfei was happier than anything else and smiled brightly.

"Where's Qing Guang?" Gu Yuan asked as he subconsciously searched his surroundings. His eyes became even brighter. "I don't think I saw it today."

<nulli>Strange, doesn't Qing Guang usually follow my sister around?

<nulli>It feels like something is missing when Qing Guang isn't here…

play with Xia Houqing that day.

Gu Yuan looked at the peach trees outside the window again.

"…" This time, Gu Yanfei froze. Her eyes moved guiltily.

<nulli>Ah, I've completely forgotten about this cat after asking it to play with Xia Houqing that day.

"Where did it go?" Gu Yanfei was vague and changed the topic as if nothing had happened. "Big Brother, it's rare for you to rest. Why don't you invite your friends to the residence for a gathering tomorrow?"

"We haven't invited anyone to a banquet since we split up."

After splitting up, it meant that Gu Yuan represented the eldest branch alone. Logically speaking, he should hold a banquet and spread it among his relatives and friends. However, for various reasons and because Gu Yuan was busy with work, he spent most of his time in the palace, so he didn't hold a banquet.

Gu Yanfei had sour and sweet candied plums in her mouth. Her eyes curled up happily. "Big Sister couldn't find you and has mentioned it to me a few times. Since you're taking a break this time, hurry up and settle this matter."

"In my opinion, there's no need to treat many people. Just treat it as a small banquet. Let's eat and drink casually."

Gu Yuan never had any objections to his sister's suggestion. Without hesitation, he decided. "Tomorrow then."

"Since we're all on the same side, there's no need to post anything. I'll send Wu Tong to tell them."

Gu Yuan had always been very casual with his friends. He had never paid attention to that red tape. Anyway, it was fine as long as the person came.

"Just cook a few dishes in the kitchen. They're not picky eaters, so there's no need to go overboard."

Both Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei said the same thing. However, Gu Yunzhen acted as if she was facing a great enemy. She pulled Gu Yanfei along and carefully selected a table of dishes.

This was the first time she had officially treated a guest after splitting up.

Although it was only a small banquet for a dozen people, Gu Yunzhen hoped that everything would be perfect and not embarrass her brother.

In the end, this small banquet was arranged in the small garden. Time was too tight, and there was no time to invite the opera troupe, so she simply invited a musician who could play the pipa to warm up the venue.

The sound of the pipa was like large beads falling onto a jade plate. It was lively and pleasant to the ears, full of charm.

Before Gu Yanfei reached the small garden, she heard the rhythmic sound of the pipa. However, soon, there was the sound of people playing the pitch-pot. It instantly destroyed the originally quiet mood.

"Pfft!"

Gu Yanfei couldn't help but laugh. She felt a sense of familiarity.

The closer she got, the livelier it became.

More than ten young masters in their prime were gathered inside and outside the Water Pavilion in the small garden. Some were pitching pots in the open space outside the water pavilion, some were drinking, some were boxing, some were playing archery, and some were performing swordsmanship by the lake…

The young masters were all energetic. They laughed heartily, persuaded people to drink, and played around.

As the saying goes, three women make a drama.

However, Juan Bi felt that these nine young masters had nine scenes together.

"Sister!" Fan Beiran waved at Gu Yanfei enthusiastically.

He was wearing an orange shirt today. He was still as dazzling as a lantern, allowing people to see him in the crowd at a glance.

The other young masters also looked at Gu Yanfei in unison. Gu Yanfei remembered every face.

These people were all mischievous friends that Gu Yuan had played with since he was young.

In her previous life, even if her brother had broken his leg and ruined his future, the few of them would come to visit him from time to time to comfort him so that the siblings wouldn't fall into an isolated and helpless situation.

As the saying went, it was easy to add icing to the cake but difficult to provide charcoal in the snow. Gu Yanfei had always remembered their friendship.
