Chapter 1087

Gu Gu Hanyuan said again with a light smile:

"Yesterday I noticed Lady's injuries were acting up a bit, so I took her to get them treated."

Two sentences, one before and one after, not only explained why he hadn't returned the night before.

They also deliberately highlighted Wu Wu Xingyun's presence.

As if it were only for her sake.

That he had taken care of Li Qiu.

And without complaint had healed her wounds.

Sure enough, Wu Wu Xingyun's beautiful eyes lit up at his words.

A faint sweetness welled in her heart.

Her cool, aloof face bloomed like a flower in a smile.

She said in a sweet, coquettish voice:

"So Young Master Gu went to treat Imperial Grandmother's injuries. I thank Young Master Gu on Imperial Grandmother's behalf."

Wu Wu Xingyun was in high spirits.

She didn't even mind calling Li Qiu Imperial Grandmother now.

In her heart she even muttered darkly:

"Since you want to play an old granny, Junior Sister, this Senior Sister will happily oblige."

In her heart.

Having learned the Yin Yang Jue, she was different from Li Qiu.

Judging by the ratio of their lifespans.

She was nothing more than a little girl right now.

This was something Gu Gu Hanyuan had specially explained back then.

Li Qiu seemed to sense Wu Wu Xingyun's ill intentions out of nowhere.

The mood that had just been sunk by Gu Gu Hanyuan's blow immediately lifted again.

Even her beautiful eyes beyond the veil grew more alluring.

She deliberately modulated her voice and said:

"It would show far more sincerity if I thanked Young Master Gu in person. No need to trouble my dear granddaughter."

She blinked her beautiful eyes with infinite charm.

And said seductively:

"Young Master Gu, is there anything you need me to repay you with? Whatever it is, I can agree to anything."

Li Qiu's words were full of tempting hints.

As if, the moment Gu Gu Hanyuan asked.

She would offer herself to his pillow.

Wu Wu Xingyun's face, of course, darkened at this.

She was on the verge of cursing her out.

But now she cared even more about Gu Gu Hanyuan's reaction.

She carefully raised her eyes to look at him.

Afraid he would truly make a request, just as Li Qiu wished.

If that were to happen.

Everything Wu Wu Xingyun had done would become meaningless.

Not only could the identity of Li Li Qinglu no longer be used.

She would lose to Li Qiu all over again.

And lose everything she had.

In her eyes.

Li Qiu's ruined face was hidden behind the veil.

Just looking at her eyes and figure alone.

Li Qiu's natural, bewitching charm.

Was something she simply could not compare to.

Even though she now possessed a beauty as heavenly as a fairy's.

But the more one cared about a person.

The more inevitably one looked down on oneself.

Coupled with the inferiority she had carried all along.

It made her all the more panicked.

Gu Gu Hanyuan did not answer right away.

Instead he fell silent, as if considering.

Such silence made Wu Wu Xingyun's heart sink deeper and deeper.

Before she knew it, the corners of her eyes had gathered a sheen of tears.

But just then.

Gu Gu Hanyuan suddenly stepped up close before her.

In a gentle voice.

He said tenderly:

"Although it may be somewhat presumptuous, I fell in love with the Princess at first sight. And since I am the victor of the marriage recruitment, I would like to ask Lady to complete our wedding as soon as possible."
