Chapter 1425: The three women, caught between competition and cooperation, worked together

The so-called sincerity is not hard to understand.

Especially with the scene before them as evidence.

The words, which were nearly an explicit suggestion, made Fang Yi's breath hitch.

Although she already had some thoughts, she had not yet fully made up her mind.

At this moment, she could not help but hesitate.

Moreover, Mu Jianping was still present behind her.

However, what made her even more troubled was this.

The innocent and naive Mu Jianping said happily at this time:

"Senior Sister, this is great! Master and the others aren't dead, and Senior Liu Zhengfeng must have just been captured. Let's beg Wutian to save them."

Gu Hanyuan asked a question he already knew the answer to:

"Miss Fang, what is this Senior Liu Zhengfeng that Miss Mu speaks of to you?"

Upon hearing this, Fang Yi's expression became even more unsightly.

She stammered:

"Senior Liu Zhengfeng, he..."

Mu Jianping did not know if she was naturally oblivious.

Perhaps she just wanted to divert her own attention so she wouldn't have to care about Jianning.

She suddenly blurted out:

"Senior Liu Zhengfeng is Senior Sister's fiancé..."

As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized she had said the wrong thing.

She looked worriedly at the trembling Fang Yi.

She carefully hid behind her, not daring to speak again.

Gu Hanyuan said playfully:

"So that Senior Liu Zhengfeng is Miss Fang's fiancé. No wonder... Since he is your fiancé, is it really okay not to save him?"

Fang Yi's heart was filled with shame and guilt at this moment.

Either she watched Liu Yizhou die before her eyes,

or she did something that would betray him.

Yet, this seemingly difficult choice had only one answer.

That was to save Liu Yizhou, repay his affection and righteousness, and also put her own mind at ease.

And she could also logically leave the Wang Fu and seek another path.

Fang Yi subconsciously glanced at Jianning, who remained indifferent and only busied herself with her own affairs.

She could neither understand why Jianning, with the status of a princess, was so humble, nor why she was so obsessed.

Fang Yi lowered her eyes and pondered for a long time.

Gu Hanyuan did not interrupt her.

He played with Jianning's hair casually.

This silence continued until Mu Jianping let out an uneasy, low cry.

"Senior Sister...?"

Fang Yi finally raised her head, the confusion in her eyes gone.

She said calmly:

"I hope you can save everyone in the Wang Fu."

Fang Yi's submission did not exceed Gu Hanyuan's expectations.

After all, she was a realistic woman.

Reality forced her to make the most correct choice.

Gu Hanyuan said indifferently:

"Then you know what you should do now, right?"

Fang Yi asked in a deep voice:

"Is it enough to be like this princess?"

Gu Hanyuan looked at Fang Yi with slight surprise.

"Oh? That's interesting."

Even though Fang Yi tried hard to restrain herself,

Gu Hanyuan could still see the nervousness in her heart.

Fang Yi was trying to bargain.

Not for the sake of the people in the Wang Fu trapped in prison, but to raise her own value.

The easier something is to obtain, the less it is worth cherishing.

Fang Yi understood this principle very well.

She was unwilling to easily give her body for the safety of the people in the Wang Fu.

But without paying a price, it was clearly impossible to persuade Wutian to act.

A compromise was to learn from Jianning.

To use her service to replace her body.

However, the premise of all this was that the other party was willing to agree.

Gu Hanyuan had never intended to devour Fang Yi in one gulp.

Otherwise, it would not only be boring, but the series evaluation would also fail to meet the standard.

Even if Fang Yi truly agreed to use her body as the reward for saving the people of the Wang Fu, Gu Hanyuan would choose to keep her hanging.

Therefore, Fang Yi's tactfulness was a bit of a pleasant surprise.

Under Fang Yi's nervous gaze, Gu Hanyuan said leisurely:

"Of course."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

She hesitated for a moment.

Then, under Mu Jianping's shocked gaze, she knelt and moved forward.

Jianning noticed the bright and beautiful face that had suddenly appeared beside her.

She glared at Fang Yi with dissatisfaction.

She was just about to throw a princess tantrum,

but Gu Hanyuan found it incredibly easy to handle Jianning.

With one slap, he completely dispelled her dissatisfaction.

"Jianning, teach her well how to do it. There are rewards for doing a good job."

Upon hearing this, Jianning's eyes lit up.

Her heart itched for the reward Gu Hanyuan had promised.

She suppressed the displeasure of having something important snatched away,

and honestly acted as an instructor.
