Chapter 1586: A loyal minister serves no two masters; a loyal heart is not given to two people!
The next day.
"It hurts…"
Shangguan Wan'er woke up slowly from her sleep. The feeling of a hangover was not pleasant. Shangguan Wan'er clutched her head and shook it vigorously.
Then, she raised her head, and what met her eyes was a familiar face, staring straight at her.
"Awake?"
Gao Yang spoke slowly, his eyes filled with amusement.
In an instant, her thoughts returned, and Shangguan Wan'er was shocked.
She looked up.
The familiar room furnishings, the familiar person.
One bed, one quilt.
So… did everything that should have happened, happen?
"Wan'er, did your so-called 'a thousand cups without getting drunk' refer to drinking water?"
Thinking of Shangguan Wan'er's flushed face and hazy, drunken eyes from last night, Gao Yang found it quite amusing.
Shangguan Wan'er stared at Gao Yang with her beautiful eyes, her teeth clenched.
This bastard, he took her innocence and was caught red-handed, yet how could he be so calm?
In any case, she hadn't actively agreed to Gao Yang; they hadn't naturally come together. She had gotten drunk after one cup and been taken advantage of by Gao Yang.
This fellow didn't have a shred of guilt.
But never mind, she knew exactly what kind of person Gao Yang was.
He must have seen through her intentions, which was why he was so fearless. As for not taking advantage of her, Shangguan Wan'er didn't hold out hope for that—if a bargain was delivered to his door, could he resist not taking it?
But Shangguan Wan'er was also a decisive person; since she had made the decision, there was no point in regretting it afterward.
"Did everything that should have happened, happen?"
Shangguan Wan'er took a deep breath and spoke with feigned composure.
"Wan'er, what do you think?" Gao Yang replied with a half-smile.
Sure enough… she knew it!
It was just that this fellow's attitude was truly infuriating!
Not a shred of guilt?
At this moment.
Gao Yang asked, "Wan'er, you knew my resistance to temptation has always been poor, so why did you take the initiative to deliver yourself to my door?"
"Regarding your innocence, hadn't you thought about it?"
When Gao Yang said this, his eyes were extremely complex.
Shangguan Wan'er looked at the face inches away and said faintly, "In ancient times, a loyal minister served no two masters; likewise, I, Shangguan Wan'er, will not give my heart to two people!"
"Your campaign against the Xiongnu has spread far and wide. Even though I, Shangguan Wan'er, do not understand military strategy, I know the hardships of this battle. I am yours in life, and I shall be yours in death—that is all."
Shangguan Wan'er was very calm, and very composed.
These were the words from the bottom of her heart.
Could the Xiongnu not imagine that Gao Yang would retaliate?
Would the Xiongnu Great Chanyu have no defenses?
This was Gao Yang's first time leading an army; he had only eight hundred men before, but this time it was tens of thousands of elites, and he was leading the army alone. She had come here last night because she wanted to give herself completely to Gao Yang.
But her inner reserve made Shangguan Wan'er not know how to tell Gao Yang, so even though she knew she would pass out after one cup, she drank it anyway.
If she was drunk, she wouldn't remember what happened.
Gao Yang could do whatever he wanted.
This could also be considered a form of madness.
As for Gao Yang's character, she felt there was no need to consider it.
But… didn't the old nanny in the manor say the first time was very painful? Why did she feel nothing at all?
Logically speaking, shouldn't passing out drunk and knowing nothing be very stimulating, as some forbidden books in the palace described, and fully excite a man?
Hum!
Gao Yang didn't know this, and his brain was buzzing.
The phrase "a loyal minister serves no two masters," Shangguan Wan'er's heart not being given to two people, and "I am yours in life, and I shall be yours in death" struck his heart heavily! ===== CHAPTER 1588 =====
