Chapter 123

Gu Hanyuan actually wasn't completely lost in it and had long since discovered Li Mochou's dissatisfaction.

He was doing it on purpose; it was better to have jealousy out in the open than to have it festering in secret.

And at this moment, Xiaolongnu finally opened her eyes.

First, she looked at Gu Hanyuan's face before her with some confusion, and then she revealed a smile that could charm all living things.

Even Li Mochou and Hong Lingbo, who were watching from the side, felt their heartbeats accelerate and their eyes go blank.

Beauty to a certain degree really can kill both men and women.

Especially when a girl like Xiaolongnu, who was usually a "three-no" girl, suddenly revealed such a smile; the extreme contrast could even give people goosebumps.

Li Mochou's mouth twitched again; sure enough, she had had this premonition before—in a serious confrontation, she was no match for Xiaolongnu at all.

Li Mochou suddenly felt some worry; although Gu Hanyuan had already given his promise, men's mouths are like ghosts—they lie.

Xiaolongnu finally realized she was being strongly watched and pushed Gu Hanyuan away with a blushing face.

She turned her back to the crowd to tidy up her somewhat messy clothes, secretly annoyed that Gu Hanyuan hadn't let go of her even after they reached the shore.

But when Xiaolongnu turned around and looked at Gu Hanyuan's face again, she revealed a shallow smile.

"So, what exactly is going on?"

Seeing that the complex emotions of the two had calmed down, Gu Hanyuan asked directly.

Li Mochou looked away somewhat awkwardly.

Xiaolongnu also lowered her head guiltily, fiddling with the corner of her clothes.

Hong Lingbo hid to the side, covering her mouth and giggling.

Although she had been very sad at first, the subsequent developments were truly too unexpected.

Watching Gu Hanyuan have an intimate interaction with both women separately, she was both surprised and envious.

However, as if Gu Hanyuan had noticed her giggling, he turned the spearhead directly toward her.

"Lingbo, you tell us."

"Brother Gu, you'd better ask Master and Martial Aunt. I'll go prepare some clothes for you."

Ever since she saw Li Mochou break down and cry yesterday, Hong Lingbo hadn't been as afraid of her as before.

So at this moment, she didn't want to be the scapegoat at all and decisively ran away.

Li Mochou hadn't expected Hong Lingbo to dare to abandon them just like that; it was too late when she wanted to call her back.

Seeing Gu Hanyuan shift his gaze over.

After hesitating for a moment, she still explained:

"Ancient Tomb sect rule: upon entry, one must swear never to leave the Ancient Tomb for their whole life; if a man who does not know this sect rule is willing to die for her, then she can break the oath and descend the mountain."

"So you set up such a trap?"

Gu Hanyuan was expressionless.

Worried that he would be angry, Li Mochou had to admit her mistake first.

"Hanyuan, I'm sorry. I didn't expect there would be such an accident."

"I had a part in the plan too; it was I who told Senior Sister about the secret passage. If you want to blame someone, blame me."

Xiaolongnu also stopped escaping and stood by Li Mochou's side. ===== CHAPTER 125 =====
