Chapter 1315: He Hongyao: Xueyi, I am sorry. This is only to repay a debt of gratitude
In truth, what He Tieshou wanted to ask even more was:
Had Gu Hanyuan taken a fancy to He Hongyao?
Or perhaps, had He Hongyao also lost her heart to Gu Hanyuan?
But the words turned into a teasing remark laced with jealousy as they reached her lips.
This made He Hongyao even more shy.
The blush on her face deepened by a few shades.
He Tieshou's goal of attracting Gu Hanyuan's attention had also been achieved.
She saw him shake his head with a light laugh:
"I am not a person who favors one over the other."
Having said that, he took out a pink pill once more under He Tieshou's curious gaze.
The pill was covered in mysterious patterns and emitted a faint, lingering fragrance.
Even without knowing its effects, one subconsciously felt it was even more advanced than the Beauty-Restoring Pill.
He Tieshou's heart stirred.
She asked with a beaming smile:
"What kind of pill is this?"
Gu Hanyuan did not explain, but said with a light laugh:
"You will know once you eat it."
Upon hearing this, He Tieshou reached out to take it and swallowed it without hesitation.
She blinked her pretty eyes.
She said with full charm:
"Young Master Gu, if you only want my body, you mustn't use drugs on me. I still want to properly experience that pleasure."
Seeing He Tieshou use such bold words to cover up her nervous mood,
Gu Hanyuan laughed helplessly and reached out to pinch the tip of her nose, saying:
"You are mischievous."
Seeing Gu Hanyuan's intimate attitude,
He Tieshou giggled with eyes shining:
"Anyway, I am now Miss Wen's maid, so it wouldn't be a problem even if Young Master Gu treated me as a dowry maid."
Her words were filled with the implication that she was willing to share a night of passion.
However, Gu Hanyuan knew that beneath He Tieshou's seductive exterior lay a character that valued self-respect.
Although she spoke boldly, she would certainly think of running away when the time actually came.
He feigned interest and smiled:
"That makes sense. How about you come to serve in my bed tonight?"
Sure enough,
He Tieshou panicked upon hearing this.
She said with shifting eyes:
"I am afraid Miss Wen will blame me, so let's forget it."
Clearly, she had become timid again when she saw that Gu Hanyuan was truly interested.
Seeing this, Gu Hanyuan teased:
"There is no need to worry about Qingqing; I will convince her..."
He Tieshou said awkwardly:
"Miss Wen has a jealous nature, so it is better not to make her angry."
She hurriedly changed the subject:
"Young Master Gu still hasn't told me the effect of that pill."
Gu Hanyuan did not mind upon hearing this.
He said with an inexplicable tone:
"Miss He, have you not noticed yet?"
He Tieshou was startled upon hearing this.
She had indeed been distracted by Gu Hanyuan's words just now.
She had not noticed the changes in herself.
Now, upon hearing the reminder, she suddenly sensed something was wrong.
She looked at the iron hook worn on her left hand in disbelief.
Her palm actually had sensation.
