Chapter 1685

Wanting to repay Gu Hanyuan was the very reason Lin Shiyin had sought out Lin Xian'er.

It was just that her mind had been scrambled by Lin Xian'er's words earlier.

At this moment, because of her guilt, she instead returned to her senses and asked about the real matter.

Lin Xian'er was tickled by Lin Shiyin's phrase "you are closer to Young Master Gu," and her mood immediately became even more pleasant.

She said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile:

"Sister, you are caught in the situation and blinded by a single leaf. The Young Master likes you so much; as long as you take the initiative to please him, what favor can't be repaid?"

"Take the initiative to please Young Master Gu?"

Lin Shiyin was a bit confused; this truly touched upon her knowledge blind spot.

The peculiar relationship she now had with Gu Hanyuan was also forcefully brought about by Gu Hanyuan, taking advantage of the situation back then.

Asking her to take the initiative to please him.

Not to mention the question of shame, she didn't even know how to go about it.

A playful smile flashed in Lin Xian'er's eyes.

She leaned into Lin Shiyin's ear and whispered something.

Lin Shiyin felt more and more that something was wrong, until her face turned bright red.

She couldn't help but exclaim:

"You even do that kind of thing for Young Master Gu?"

Lin Shiyin truly hadn't expected Lin Xian'er to be so subservient to please Gu Hanyuan, to the point where it could even be called being debased.

One had to know that Lin Xian'er was known as the number one beauty of the Northwest Jianghu.

Countless famous men regarded her as their dream lover.

Yet she was desperately trying to please Gu Hanyuan.

Lin Xian'er's beautiful eyes shone with a soft light, and she said with a look of great longing:

"Because I like the Young Master."

Lin Shiyin was greatly shocked upon hearing this.

The intense contrast made Lin Shiyin mistakenly believe that Lin Xian'er could even discard her dignity for the sake of liking Gu Hanyuan.

Such a misunderstanding even caused Lin Shiyin to feel a trace of shame.

So it turned out that liking someone really could mean giving up everything.

Not to mention Long Xiaoyun, whom she never liked to begin with.

Even when she loved Li Xunhuan the most back then, she had never considered doing such a thing for him.

Of course, in reality, the relationship between Li Xunhuan and Lin Shiyin had always been one of affection restrained by propriety.

Li Xunhuan was not like Gu Hanyuan.

He was a gentleman and had never once overstepped his bounds with Lin Shiyin.

Lin Shiyin hesitated: did she really want to do this for the sake of repaying a favor and the inexplicable feelings in her heart?

Seeing Lin Shiyin hesitate, Lin Xian'er continued to incite her:

"Good sister, don't you want to see that handsome, celestial face of Young Master Gu reveal an expression of pleasure and comfort? That would bring an unparalleled sense of achievement."

Lin Xian'er felt that she couldn't be the only one being used by Gu Hanyuan like a maidservant.

Otherwise, she would feel unbalanced in her heart, so she had to drag Lin Shiyin down with her.

Lin Shiyin looked with utter astonishment at Lin Xian'er's inciting demeanor.

It was hard to imagine that the number one beauty of the Northwest Jianghu could be so shameless.

Yet, what made Lin Shiyin even more ashamed and indignant was that she felt tempted after hearing it.

She still remembered the look on Gu Hanyuan's face when he smiled gently at her.

And all along, she had been passively enduring Gu Hanyuan's bullying.

This made her unable to help but want to take the initiative for once.

However, Lin Shiyin was still shy after all.

She said timidly:

"But I don't know how."

Seeing Lin Shiyin waver, a flash of pleasure passed through Lin Xian'er's eyes.

She patted her chest, looking as if to say "With me here, you can rest assured," and said:

"Sister, set your heart at ease; I will teach you."

The two ladies whispered and plotted together.

Lin Shiyin's pretty face grew redder and redder, and Lin Xian'er's beautiful eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Night fell.

Gu Hanyuan had finished dealing with the banquet, which had little nutritional value.

He had long since grown tired of those words of praise and adulation.

It was the hesitant look on Long Xiaoyun's face before he left that was more interesting.

Perhaps he was just one opportunity away from making up his mind.

Gu Hanyuan was somewhat surprised to see on his divine sense tracking that Lin Shiyin and Lin Xian'er were both at the Cold Fragrance Pavilion at this moment.

After a moment of contemplation, he changed his original plan to meet the two ladies separately.

With a flash of his figure, he headed toward the Cold Fragrance Pavilion.

At this moment, the two ladies were still whispering.

However, Lin Shiyin had clearly been mostly persuaded by Lin Xian'er.

It was just that she still had some worries and hesitation.

"How about we just forget it? I'm afraid I won't do it well and will end up making Young Master Gu angry."

Hearing Lin Shiyin's hesitant words, Lin Xian'er was greatly annoyed in her heart.

However, she still calmed herself down and persuaded:

"Sister, don't belittle yourself. Young Master Gu will be very happy to see that you are willing to serve him of your own accord."

She suddenly rolled her eyes and said with a clever smile:

"How about little sister helps you, sister? If you do something wrong, little sister can lend a hand."

Lin Shiyin said in great alarm:

"No! That really won't do."

Lin Xian'er wrapped her arms around Lin Shiyin's slender, soft waist.

While marveling at why she was so favored by Gu Hanyuan, she frowned slightly and said:

"My good sister, hesitation leads to defeat... or do you want to be an ungrateful person?"

"Sister Xian'er, say no more..."

Lin Shiyin's pretty face was already flushed red.

Even the roots of her ears had turned blood-red.

She was so shy that her beautiful eyes couldn't help but narrow.

However, just as she wanted to sternly refuse.

Gu Hanyuan's slightly surprised voice suddenly sounded in her ear.

"Madam, Xian'er, what are you two chatting about?"

Lin Shiyin was startled upon hearing this.

But Lin Xian'er had already cheered and thrown herself into Gu Hanyuan's arms.

"Young Master!"

Seeing Gu Hanyuan catch her steadily, a flash of triumph crossed Lin Xian'er's beautiful eyes.

In reality, Gu Hanyuan had been listening for a while.
