Chapter 107

Huang Rong felt a wave of heat hit her, and the temperature on her face rose involuntarily.

These words, which were almost like a direct hit, made Huang Rong somewhat unable to handle it.

She avoided his gaze and said softly:

"I am no longer a little girl."

"Who said that? When you and Fu'er stand together, you look like sisters."

This was Gu Gu Hanyuan’s truth; although Huang Rong was no longer at her peak of beauty, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.

"You only know how to say nice things."

Huang Rong was a woman after all, and she would still be happy when others said she was young.

And Gu Gu Hanyuan struck while the iron was hot:

"My lady looks so young, should I call you sister? Sister Huang?"

"Don't, it makes me feel embarrassed."

Huang Rong’s face was full of awkwardness; after all, she was more than a cycle older than Gu Gu Hanyuan.

"My lady is so beautiful, it’s more appropriate to call you Sister Huang."

"Even if I’m beautiful now, what of it? In a few years, I will be old and faded."

When she said this, Huang Rong sighed subconsciously.

"Since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals; they are not allowed to see white hair in the world. So I must restore this youth for you, my lady."

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s expression was somewhat inexplicable.

Huang Rong didn't quite understand Gu Gu Hanyuan’s meaning.

"Would you like to taste it, my lady?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan gestured to one of the wine pots on the table.

Huang Rong was somewhat resistant, fearing she would get drunk again, and it would be troublesome if something happened.

"Didn't you say there was only one pot of 'Treading Snow Seeking Plum'?"

"This pot is not 'Treading Snow Seeking Plum.' This is 'Warm Jade Spring Cotton,' made from spring flower buds, which has the effect of beauty and nourishment. Although it cannot make you return to youth, delaying aging is no problem. This is specially prepared for Sister Huang."

"Warm Jade Spring Cotton" was also redeemed by Gu Gu Hanyuan for 50 Villain Points.

He filled a cup for Huang Rong.

Huang Rong’s eyes lit up; no woman could be indifferent to appearance and age, but she still asked suspiciously:

"You aren't lying to me, are you? I’ve never heard of wine that can delay aging."

"What’s the point of lying to you with such boring words? And it’s not like there’s no way to keep youth in this world. I once saw a woman who was fifty or sixty years old, still looking like she was in her early twenties, young and beautiful. I also heard that there was a woman who practiced a kind of technique and was still like a young girl in her nineties."

Gu Gu Hanyuan was awakening Huang Rong’s desire for youth and maintaining her appearance.

Huang Rong asked curiously:

"I’d like to hear the details."

"My lady, you remember I said I forced a breakthrough to Grandmaster and damaged my meridians, right?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan continued after seeing Huang Rong nod.

"At that time, because of some misunderstandings, I fought with Lin Lin Chaoying, the founder of the Ancient Tomb Sect, and it was precisely because of this that I broke through to Grandmaster. Afterward, seeing that Lin Lin Chaoying’s appearance was like that of a twenty-year-old, I learned from her that she raised a kind of jade bee, and the jade bee pulp produced could keep one’s appearance from fading if drunk for a long time. Unfortunately, raising jade bees is difficult, and it is not easy to drink it for a long time."

"So there is such a jade bee pulp with such effects."

Huang Rong showed a look of longing, but also some disappointment.

Gu Gu Hanyuan continued:

"There is a sect in the Wu Lin called the Xiaoyao Sect, and the disciples of the sect are all chosen handsome men and beautiful women. After the cultivation technique is completed, they can all keep their appearance from aging, no different from becoming an immortal. It’s just that the Xiaoyao Sect is a hidden sect, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find its traces."

Huang Rong hadn't even heard of the Xiaoyao Sect; clearly, it was another thing that was out of reach.

"'Warm Jade Spring Cotton' was developed based on the classics left by the Xianxia Sect. The Xianxia Sect is also an immortal cultivation sect, but it’s a pity that its traces cannot be seen. This is also the only way I have obtained to maintain my appearance, but unfortunately, the stock is not much."

Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't plan to tell Huang Rong about the "Yin-Yang Technique" too quickly; after all, it was an immortal cultivation technique for dual cultivation.

If he told Huang Rong directly now, she would turn against him eight or nine times out of ten.

Treating Huang Rong cannot be rushed, nor can one be timid; repeating the tug-of-war to master the initiative is the best way.

Otherwise, it would be at most a second Ouyang Ke.

Huang Rong became interested in the "Warm Jade Spring Cotton" in the wine pot after listening.

She hesitated for a moment before picking up the filled wine cup, seeing it was light red and clear, with a pleasant aroma; just looking at it made her feel pleasing to the eye.

Huang Rong opened her red lips slightly and took a sip, and suddenly felt comfortable all over, with a sense of refreshment.

"How does it feel, my lady?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan asked with a smile.

Huang Rong’s face was slightly red; after all, she had thought before that she absolutely couldn't drink with Gu Gu Hanyuan tonight, but she didn't expect to drink it again subconsciously.

Although she didn't know how effective the "Warm Jade Spring Cotton" was, at least her body felt much lighter after drinking it, so she lost the thought of resistance.

"Not bad."

"Then drink a few more cups."

At the same time, Gu Gu Hanyuan poured the "Bitter Dew Immortal Spring" he had redeemed into his own cup and clinked glasses with Huang Rong.

Although "Bitter Dew Immortal Spring" was slightly bitter, it had the effect of clearing blood vessels and dispelling cold after drinking; Gu Gu Hanyuan felt it was quite good.

The two drank like this, as if it were a continuation of last night, chatting about everything.

Huang Rong’s expression gradually relaxed from her initial vigilance, her smiles increased, and she seemed to have fewer scruples.

The charm she occasionally revealed made Gu Gu Hanyuan somewhat dazed, and Huang Rong just glared at him reproachfully when she saw it.

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s eyes were deep when he saw this.

Testing?

This was very consistent with Huang Rong’s personality.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before Huang Rong seemed unable to hold her liquor and fell asleep on the table.

"My lady?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan called Huang Rong several times, and after seeing no response, he shook her shoulder lightly.

After a while.

Gu Gu Hanyuan picked Huang Rong up horizontally.

Her long dress tightened instantly, clinging to her body, and the curves of her waist and hips crossed an amazing arc.

Huang Rong was indeed feigning drunkenness, and she was indeed testing.

She didn't hope in her heart that Gu Gu Hanyuan was what she thought he was.

Huang Rong could see Guo Fu’s admiration for Gu Gu Hanyuan.

If possible, she didn't want Guo Fu to be hurt in the future, so she couldn't help but test him.

Huang Rong had originally thought that Gu Gu Hanyuan would at most help her up, but she didn't expect him to pick her up horizontally.

The moment she left the ground, even though she tried her best to control it, her body inevitably tightened, and she even considered whether to pretend to wake up.

Gu Gu Hanyuan looked at Huang Rong’s bright and charming face in his arms, desperately trying to hide it, and found it somewhat funny.

Sure enough, although Huang Rong was good at adapting to circumstances, she easily put herself in danger.

Fortunately, after Gu Gu Hanyuan picked Huang Rong up, he sent her directly to her room.

After placing her steadily on the bed, he stopped.

Just as Huang Rong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she felt a coolness on her forehead and heard a "Good night, my lady."

She was almost startled into opening her eyes directly.

When the sound of Gu Gu Hanyuan closing the door came, Huang Rong opened her clear eyes, which were full of complexity.

She could feel the pity in Gu Gu Hanyuan’s kiss.

As if he felt sorry for her, who should have been a celestial being, falling into the mortal world and worrying about worldly affairs.

Huang Rong sighed long, her thoughts chaotic, and she couldn't sleep all night.
