Chapter 1243
Just a few glances were enough to make the two women blush and feel shy.
Gu Hanyuan smiled warmly:
"Are the two young ladies Ye Xiuzhu and Shi Xiuyun of the 'Four Beauties of Emei'?"
The two women were startled,
and asked curiously:
"How does Young Master Gu know us?"
Gu Hanyuan laughed clearly:
"Emei has four beauties: the first is true gold that needs no plating, the second is elegant and refined, the third is round and jade-like, and the fourth is as beautiful as the clouds and moon. How could I not know?"
The two women blushed deeply upon hearing this.
They had never heard such direct praise,
especially coming from a figure like Gu Hanyuan, which made it even more significant.
The two women lowered their heads in shyness.
Ye Xiuzhu, being slightly bolder, looked up quietly,
and seeing Gu Hanyuan still smiling gently,
her heart began to thump wildly.
She had always liked men who were handsome, dashing, and romantic,
and Gu Hanyuan perfectly matched her requirements for a dream lover.
She felt as if she had fallen in love at first sight,
and her beautiful eyes began to shimmer.
A young girl's thoughts naturally couldn't escape Gu Hanyuan's eyes.
Gu Hanyuan's eyes flickered,
and he asked gently:
"I wonder how Junior Sister Zhiruo is doing in Emei?"
Ye Xiuzhu felt her heart melt at Gu Hanyuan's gentle words,
but the question was about Zhou Zhiruo,
making her mood complex and difficult to understand.
"That's right. Young Master Gu is the person Junior Sister Zhiruo likes; how can I like him too?"
Ye Xiuzhu's expression dimmed slightly,
but she still raised a beautiful, smiling face and said:
"Junior Sister Zhiruo is very diligent and hardworking in her martial arts, and Abbess Miejue speaks highly of her. Even our master wants to snatch her over to take as a disciple."
Shi Xiuyun had also recovered by now.
Although there was still a shy blush on her face,
she teased with a giggle:
"It's just that Junior Sister Zhiruo can't go three sentences without mentioning 'Brother Gu,' and often stares blankly at a portrait."
Gu Hanyuan didn't pay attention to Shi Xiuyun's teasing,
and sighed:
"Junior Sister Zhiruo has worked hard; when I have time, I will go to Emei to see her."
Shi Xiuyun laughed:
"If Junior Sister Zhiruo sees the 'Brother Gu' she is always thinking of, she will definitely be overjoyed."
Back then by the Han River, Gu Hanyuan had saved Zhou Zhiruo and used his storage space like a magic trick to amuse her, leaving a deep impression on her little girl's heart.
Since then, Gu Hanyuan had gradually become famous,
and Zhou Zhiruo's impression of Gu Hanyuan had been filtered through a beautiful lens.
The more she recalled, the more she missed him,
so much so that despite not seeing him for a long time, her affection had never stopped growing.
Gu Hanyuan's eyes softened upon hearing this.
He wondered how that little beauty had grown up now.
Wen Qingqing, beside Gu Hanyuan, had her mouth pouted high without realizing it.
Seeing Gu Hanyuan flirting with two beautiful Emei disciples the moment he arrived, she had already started to feel jealous.
Now another Zhou Zhiruo had popped up.
Wen Qingqing listened to the conversation between the two sides,
and it was clear that Zhou Zhiruo had known Gu Hanyuan for a long time and their relationship was not ordinary.
Wen Qingqing's little jar of vinegar was immediately overturned.
Not caring that so many people were watching,
she hugged Gu Hanyuan's arm tightly,
not even caring that she was being squeezed out of shape.
She asked with a slightly red face:
"Brother Gu, who is that Junior Sister Zhiruo? Why haven't I heard you mention her?"
Gu Hanyuan laughed and brushed her off:
"If there is an opportunity, I will introduce Junior Sister Zhiruo to you."
Wen Qingqing didn't hear Gu Hanyuan's dismissal,
and laughed triumphantly:
"It's a deal."
Shi Xiuyun looked at Wen Qingqing with curiosity,
especially noticing her action of hugging Gu Hanyuan's arm.
The more she looked, the more she felt her face flush,
and she secretly spat.
Ye Xiuzhu, however, had her eyes light up.
Although she also had possessiveness,
she had self-awareness.
A man like Gu Hanyuan was not someone she could conquer alone.
She had been concerned about Zhou Zhiruo before,
but now seeing Wen Qingqing's existence, she immediately had fewer concerns.
Rather than suffering alone, it was better to honestly join in.
Ye Xiuzhu's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
She subconsciously brushed the long hair by her ear,
revealing her most beautiful side.
She asked with a slightly nervous, bright smile:
"Can I also call you Brother Gu?"
A flash of pleasure passed through Gu Hanyuan's eyes.
He smiled softly, masking it slightly:
"Of course you can; thank you for taking care of Junior Sister Zhiruo."
He naturally wouldn't ignore Shi Xiuyun,
and said warmly:
"If Xiuyun doesn't mind, you can call me that too." ===== CHAPTER 1245 =====
