Chapter 1045

~4 min read 750 words

In order to find her "Dream Husband."

Li Qinglu wanted to be willful once.

However, before she could see her "Dream Husband."

A gentle warmth awakened her.

In a daze.

She felt a reassuring warmth beside her.

As if trying her best to absorb the temperature.

Li Qinglu pressed her body extremely close.

Her chest was even burning hot because of it.

So hot that she finally regained consciousness.

Before her eyes was still that dim ice cellar.

She couldn't see things clearly at all.

She could only vaguely see the human silhouette before her.

Deducing that he was a man.

As if everything was a replica of the dream.

Li Qinglu reached out her slender, jade-like hand and touched the man's cheek.

However, what surprised her was.

The skin of the man before her was incredibly delicate and smooth.

Even making her somewhat jealous.

This made her want to know the other person's identity even more.

Her still somewhat weak body squeezed out a bit of strength to ask:

"Who are you?"

She originally thought she would get no reply, just like in the dream.

However, a familiar, gentle voice reached her ears.

"Princess, it's me."

Li Qinglu was startled upon hearing this.

Because she cared.

She had deliberately memorized his voice during the literary test.

At this moment, she reacted immediately.

Exclaiming:

"Young Master Gu?"

Gu Hanyuan replied gently:

"It's me. I've let the Princess suffer."

Li Qinglu didn't expect that what she thought about before losing consciousness and what she dreamed about after losing consciousness would intertwine.

The person who saved her was not a stranger.

But Gu Hanyuan, who was about to become her husband.

She couldn't help but substitute Gu Hanyuan for the person in her dream.

Such a thought made her happy while also feeling shy.

Especially the state of them being pressed tightly together made her face flush with red.

Yet she couldn't bear to leave that warm, firm, and powerful embrace.

She asked with a shy, pretty face:

"Did Young Master Gu save me...?"

Gu Hanyuan was somewhat surprised by Li Qinglu's reaction.

But he still replied gently:

"Yes."

He then added apologetically:

"Sorry, Yun'er has caused the Princess trouble."

Li Qinglu was startled again upon hearing this.

Asking in surprise:

"Young Master Gu already knew?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled subtly:

"I knew from the beginning."

Li Qinglu's face darkened slightly upon hearing this.

Gu Hanyuan's words made her feel a bit sad.

Thinking to herself: As expected, Young Master Gu never cared about me.

As if all her fantasies had been shattered.

Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Lowering her beautiful eyes, she said softly:

"No wonder Young Master Gu answered that way at the time. So Young Master Gu came for Sister Yun all along."

Li Qinglu actually missed her previous dream a bit at this moment.

Rather than facing the reality of being just a supporting character.

It would be better to just sleep forever.

Being the protagonist in her dream.

Just as she was falling into such terrible thoughts.

Gu Hanyuan's teasing words pulled her back to reality.

"I didn't just come for Yun'er. I am also very interested in the Princess, who is rumored to be peerless and unparalleled."

Li Qinglu felt as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw upon hearing this.

Her beautiful eyes regained their luster.

Shining with undisguised joy.

Gleaming in the dark ice cellar.

If it were the old her.

She would still be dissatisfied with Gu Hanyuan's playboy nature.

However, after the ups and downs and wandering between life and death.

What she sought was much less.

Merely hoping that Gu Hanyuan had her in his heart.

And could pay attention to her.

Gu Hanyuan's praise and interest were the best rewards for her.

Li Qinglu said shyly and timidly:

"In front of Sister Yun, how could I dare to claim to be peerless and unparalleled?"

Gu Hanyuan said playfully, with hidden meaning:

"Although Yun'er is good, she may not necessarily surpass the Princess in every aspect."

Li Qinglu didn't understand at first.

Until Gu Hanyuan moved slightly away from her.

The elasticity that had been suppressed suddenly made its presence felt.

And Li Qinglu also realized belatedly, her pretty face turning completely red.

Shyly and coquettishly scolding:

"Young Master Gu is teasing me."

But her heart was filled with pride.

Even secretly thanking the advantage Li Qiu had inherited to her.

Gu Hanyuan said with a serious tone:
