Chapter 1689

PS: 709 and 710 have been released; it's really a pain, sealing two chapters at a time.

How could Gu Hanyuan not notice Long Xiaoyun's peeping? While feeling slightly surprised, he didn't expose her.

Or rather, this was part of his plan from the beginning.

It was just that Long Xiaoyun had entered the game a little early.

Long Xiaoyun hadn't seen the whole process, missing the beginning.

However, precisely because of this, the impact on her was even greater.

Because from her perspective, Lin Shiyin had done it of her own volition, rather than after being incited by Lin Xian'er.

Long Xiaoyun believed that Lin Shiyin had completely changed her heart.

This suddenly made her feel a bit guilty toward her father, Long Xiaoyun.

Although their father-daughter relationship was not good, seeing her mother abandon her father with her own eyes made Long Xiaoyun feel sad for Long Xiaoyun in the end.

She had once clashed with Sun Xiaohong to defend the marriage and reputation of Long Xiaoyun and Lin Shiyin.

The culprit back then was Li Xunhuan, but now it was her beloved Master, whom she had personally brought into the house.

This made the guilt in Long Xiaoyun's heart even worse, yet there was nothing she could do.

She couldn't stop Gu Hanyuan and Lin Shiyin, nor could she tell Long Xiaoyun the truth.

The only thing that gave her a strange sense of comfort was that perhaps Lin Shiyin hadn't loved Long Xiaoyun to begin with, but Li Xunhuan.

The content of Sun Xiaohong's storytelling and some rumors in the Jianghu were not groundless.

Otherwise, Long Xiaoyun wouldn't have been so resentful of Li Xunhuan back then.

Now, Lin Shiyin had simply changed her target and fallen in love with someone else.

Moreover, Lin Shiyin and Long Xiaoyun had been sleeping in separate rooms for many years.

Seriously calculating it, Long Xiaoyun's loss wasn't as great as imagined.

As long as it didn't spread out and cause damage to his reputation, Long Xiaoyun was merely suffering some humiliation.

They say that daughters turn outward, and favoring the outsider is the norm.

Long Xiaoyun had subconsciously persuaded herself in her heart to accept it for Gu Hanyuan's sake.

Long Xiaoyun, who hadn't slept all night, subconsciously arrived in the courtyard on time with a tired and haggard little face.

Originally, this was the time she should have started practicing martial arts, but at this moment, she had no mood to practice at all.

Long Xiaoyun sat on the stone stool, staring blankly.

It wasn't until a familiar large hand touched the top of her head that she came back to her senses.

Looking at Gu Hanyuan, who was smiling gently before her, Long Xiaoyun only felt aggrieved for a moment.

She called out "Master" with a slightly tearful voice.

The familiar scent and the gentle stroking of her back made her feel at ease.

But her conflicted mood left her not knowing how to speak.

Gu Hanyuan understood Long Xiaoyun's mood and laid his cards on the table directly.

"Xiaoyun, did you see it?"

Long Xiaoyun was startled upon hearing this.

Thinking of Gu Hanyuan's peerless divine arts, perhaps he hadn't been deceived from the very beginning.

This made her feel a bit ashamed in her heart; after all, peeping was immoral.

However, she unexpectedly felt a sense of relief.

Laying it on the table was much better than her being there alone, hesitating and conflicted.

Long Xiaoyun looked up from Gu Hanyuan's arms, looking at those clear, deep eyes, and said with a faint tone:

"Master, did you know she is my mother?"

"I knew."
