Chapter 1348: Li Yuanzhi wants to fall in love

~5 min read 865 words

The awkward situation made the air suddenly go quiet.

In the end, it was the understanding Shuang'er who broke the awkward atmosphere.

She scolded reproachfully:

"Even if Miss Li is a bit naughty, Young Master shouldn't tease her like this."

If it had been before she was given to Gu Hanyuan by Pan Suying, she probably wouldn't have understood what was happening to Li Yuanzhi.

Fortunately, she had already seen similar reactions from Pan Suying several times last night.

Therefore, she completely understood why Li Yuanzhi was so ashamed that her face flushed red, burying herself in Gu Hanyuan's arms and not daring to look up.

Even with Shuang'er's gentle temperament,

she was blaming Gu Hanyuan in her heart for being too abrupt with Li Yuanzhi.

She categorized the situation just now as "teasing," not only to ease the awkwardness but also to make excuses for Gu Hanyuan.

After all, Li Yuanzhi was still a young girl.

No matter how Gu Hanyuan's actions were explained, they were a bit overstepping.

Shuang'er ignored the look of approval Gu Hanyuan gave her.

She pulled Li Yuanzhi out of his arms.

She said gently:

"Miss Li, you have also had a hard day. Let me take you to bathe and change."

Although it was Shuang'er's first time at this residence,

her talent as a maid was maxed out.

She almost saw the layout of the mansion at a glance.

Arranging a room for Li Yuanzhi and preparing a bath was completely fine.

Li Yuanzhi had originally planned to follow Gu Hanyuan out.

However, after the awkward experience just now,

she only wanted to avoid Gu Hanyuan at this moment.

But when she was pulled away by Shuang'er, she still couldn't help but look back, wrinkle her nose, and glare at Gu Hanyuan.

Gu Hanyuan did not mind upon seeing this.

He just smiled lightly, raised the hand from before, and used the action of lightly twisting his fingers to "sink" Li Yuanzhi, causing her pretty face to turn into a fresh tomato once again.

Gu Hanyuan watched the backs of the two women as they left with a flickering gaze.

Although the process was a bit unexpected,

the goal had been achieved.

If he were only going to scout the Red Flower Society tonight, bringing Li Yuanzhi along wouldn't have been impossible.

However, he was also planning to visit the Imperial Palace at night.

After entering the city, the strange gathering of spiritual energy made him very concerned.

It would be a bit inconvenient to bring Li Yuanzhi along for actions in the Imperial Palace.

Gu Hanyuan's figure flashed and disappeared from where he stood.

Shuang'er busied herself preparing hot water for Li Yuanzhi.

She spoke to wake Li Yuanzhi, who was staring blankly.

"Miss Li, you can bathe now."

Li Yuanzhi came back to her senses and looked at Shuang'er, who was wiping the sweat from her temples.

While feeling quite embarrassed, she felt even more confused.

She asked strangely:

"Are there no maids in the mansion? Why does Miss Shuang'er have to do it yourself?"

Shuang'er smiled gently:

"I don't know any of the servants in the mansion. Besides, it's late at night, so it's not good to trouble others."

Li Yuanzhi was stunned upon hearing this.

She sighed in her heart:

"No wonder Brother Gu likes Miss Shuang'er; what man could refuse such a gentle girl?"

She had just been struggling with her relationship with Gu Hanyuan.

The term "junior sister" was just a nice way of putting it.

Lu Feiqing was merely an elder of a branch temple.

He could not be compared to a Wudang disciple with such a proper background as Yu Daiyan.

She and Gu Hanyuan were not really junior and senior siblings.

Moreover, with Gu Hanyuan's current status, it was hard to define him as just a disciple of the Wudang Sect.

Li Yuanzhi's association with Gu Hanyuan could be said to be "climbing high."

Seriously speaking,

the relationship between the two should be friends.

Li Yuanzhi was a woman who longed for romance.

When she blocked the sword for Li Kexiu outside Jin Ling City,

what she thought in her heart was, "It's a pity I couldn't have a grand and spectacular romance."

Li Yuanzhi did not deny that she had a good impression of Gu Hanyuan.

Whether it was the curiosity she had for him outside Jin Ling City,

or the rebellion caused by Li Kexiu's forceful obstruction,

all of it made Li Yuanzhi very interested in Gu Hanyuan.

The experience of "flying on a sword" made it even harder for her to forget.

Therefore, Gu Hanyuan's status in her heart was special.

That was why she felt jealous because of Shuang'er and Luo Bing.

But there was still a distance to go before becoming lovers.

It was more of an instinct to want to receive attention.

This was also a common trait of adolescent girls.

When Li Yuanzhi was disciplined by Gu Hanyuan at the restaurant,

because she was in the wrong, she didn't have the nerve to say much.

It was more of a young girl's shyness at being taken advantage of. ===== CHAPTER 1350 =====
