Chapter 1198: Bing Xue'er: After I avenge my late husband, I am willing to repay your kindness

PS: My head is still very dizzy, I barely managed to write two chapters.

Gu Hanyuan didn't want to directly threaten Lady Hu,

but Lady Hu's will was firm,

and she was quite vigilant toward him.

Direct threats would only be counterproductive.

Therefore, he chose a method to dismantle her defenses step by step.

First, use the Ancient Tomb Sect connection to get closer,

then ask for her maiden name.

One must know that a woman's maiden name after marriage cannot be casually told to others.

Huang Rong had reacted intensely to Gu Hanyuan calling her "Rong'er" back then,

and that was when Huang Rong's name was already famous throughout the world,

and "Sect Leader Huang" was known to all.

Therefore, Gu Hanyuan asking for Lady Hu's maiden name was actually a transgression.

Sure enough,

the cold and indifferent Lady Hu flushed beet red,

feeling both ashamed and angry in her heart.

Looking at Gu Hanyuan's inexplicably meaningful gaze,

how could she not know what he was up to?

Gu Hanyuan indeed didn't ask her for clues to the Chuang Wang treasure,

but instead set his sights on her.

Especially thinking about the relationship between Li Mochou, Xiaolongnü, and him,

her shame and anger were even stronger.

Lady Hu wanted to get angry,

but Gu Hanyuan's request was right at the critical point of her psychology.

She was unwilling to say her maiden name,

but it wasn't worth falling out over.

For a time, she was quite conflicted.

Gu Hanyuan's eyes flickered,

and he pretended to be understanding:

"My Lady, you don't have to force it; I was just curious. Besides, Hero Hu has been dead for many years; compared to revenge, I think he would prefer that you and your son live in peace and happiness."

Gu Hanyuan's hint was easy to understand.

Of course, Hu Yidao's revenge had to be taken,

but after more than ten years, there had been no progress.

The clue in Gu Hanyuan's mouth was Lady Hu's only hope.

As for the other layer of the hint,

Lady Hu knew it well.

Raising Hu Fei alone for so many years had indeed left her physically and mentally exhausted.

But Hu Fei was already growing up,

so her worries weren't as great as they had been back then.

At worst, she would just follow Hu Yidao after avenging him.

Lady Hu made up her mind. ===== CHAPTER 1200 =====
