Chapter 1110
PS: Something came up today, so I'm a bit late, sorry.
Gu Hanyuan asked with some surprise:
"My lady, you captured Yan Feifei?"
Since the relationship between Tan Yingshou and Yan Feifei had deviated from his expectations,
and Yan Feifei, as a woman,
was able to build an enterprise like the Baotian Lanyue Tower, the number one restaurant in Yuezhou City,
how could Yan Feifei in this world be a simple character?
That Zhen Sushan was actually able to capture her openly
meant she must have some tricks up her sleeve.
Zhen Sushan looked at Gu Hanyuan's deep eyes for a moment upon hearing this,
and then said in a faint, slow tone:
"That Yan Feifei indeed has some ability; she is skilled in both martial arts and scheming. If it weren't for the critical moment when Tan Yingshou sold her out to escape, even I wouldn't have been able to capture her."
Gu Hanyuan suddenly understood upon hearing this.
Zhen Sushan was clearly thinking of herself because of Yan Feifei's encounter.
Tan Yingshou could sell out Yan Feifei to escape;
how much status did she herself hold in Gu Hanyuan's heart?
In the end, she still lacked a sense of security,
especially since Gu Hanyuan's might was growing day by day,
and she had yet to give herself to him,
while Khwarazm was still a homeless dog.
The cooperative status of both parties was not equal.
Gu Hanyuan could do without Zhen Sushan,
but Zhen Sushan could not do without Gu Hanyuan's help.
Intelligent women almost all have a common flaw:
that is, a heart with seven openings that thinks too much.
Huang Rong is like this,
and Zhao Min is also like this.
Although Zhen Sushan could not compare to the two women,
she was only slightly inferior.
Moreover, the pressure in Zhen Sushan's heart was much greater than that of the two women.
The safety of her clansmen,
the hatred of her nation's destruction,
all made her unable to relax.
Gu Hanyuan had always been more tolerant of capable women;
some flaws could be ignored.
However, Zhen Sushan's appearance of being worried about gains and losses
also showed that Gu Hanyuan had indeed walked into her heart.
Compared to a simple cooperative relationship,
Zhen Sushan had feelings for Gu Hanyuan.
And the more she cared,
the more she naturally worried.
Gu Hanyuan understood Zhen Sushan's thoughts
and said with some amusement:
"Since it is my lady's kind intention, I will accept it..."
If it were the original Yan Feifei,
Gu Hanyuan naturally wouldn't have much interest,
at most collecting her as a plaything.
But after Zhen Sushan's explanation,
Gu Hanyuan had a few more ideas,
especially since the Baotian Lanyue Tower could become an aid to the development of the "Net."
Zhen Sushan felt stifled in her heart upon hearing this.
It was clearly she who had proposed sending Yan Feifei to Gu Hanyuan,
but when Gu Hanyuan agreed to accept, it made her quite unhappy.
She bit her thin lips and said:
"Anyway, I've already sent the person; do whatever you want with her, Young Master Gu."
Saying this, she struggled to get up,
and said quite irritably:
"I haven't been able to rest well during this time, so please let me go back, Young Master Gu."
However, how could Gu Hanyuan let her leave?
He tightened his arms,
causing Zhen Sushan not only to fail to break free,
but instead to sink in a bit deeper.
He whispered gently in Zhen Sushan's ear:
"My lady has worked hard. But since my lady wants to rest, why go far away? There is naturally a place for my lady in this Xixia imperial palace."
The meaning of Gu Hanyuan's words was not just about the Xixia imperial palace;
it was also expressing that he had left a place for Zhen Sushan in his heart.
With Zhen Sushan's intelligence, how could she not hear the implication of Gu Hanyuan's words?
Her eyes lit up immediately,
but she soon hesitated again.
