Chapter 186
Sure enough, the horse whip was grabbed by Gu Hanyuan in mid-air.
Gu Hanyuan had originally found it funny that the two women were cursing without regard for their image to defend him; seeing that Wang Xiaofeng actually dared to make a move, he had no intention of being polite at all.
He exerted force with his hand and pulled Wang Xiaofeng, who was still sitting on the horse, down.
After being pulled off the horse, Wang Xiaofeng was in great pain and wanted to get up in a sorry state, but was stepped on the face by a shoe.
Gu Hanyuan's voice was cold:
"Apologize to Sister Fu."
"Ah! Let me go quickly."
Wang Xiaofeng struggled, but unfortunately, it had no effect, and because only his lower body could move, he looked like a wriggling worm.
Gu Hanyuan didn't answer his words, but continued to exert force with his foot.
"They were the ones who cursed me first! Why should I apologize!"
Wang Xiaofeng, although feeling his face getting more and more painful, still said stubbornly.
Sheng also didn't expect things to develop to this step; seeing Wang Xiaofeng's face almost sinking into the ground, she anxiously begged Gu Hanyuan:
"Gu Shaoxia, please let my cousin go; I will apologize to this girl for him, and also to the girl who was almost hit by White Dragon just now."
However, Gu Hanyuan didn't give her face and said coldly:
"Everyone must be responsible for their own words and actions; if you don't have the strength, don't just stick your head out."
Guo Fu felt triumphant; she was a person who admired strength, and at this moment, looking at Gu Hanyuan's domineering and cold appearance, her eyes were almost popping out with little stars.
Yue Lingshan even felt a bit regretful about why the target of Wang Xiaofeng's attack just now wasn't herself.
Qu Feiyan also appreciated Gu Hanyuan's behavior of protecting his own, feeling it was worth the effort of deliberately creating a hero-saving-beauty plot to strike up a conversation with him.
Sheng was at a loss at this moment, wanting to go find her father Dai for help.
Wang Xiaofeng, however, felt his head was about to crack; the pain was getting more and more intense, and he even felt it was about to explode, screaming and begging for mercy:
"Ah! I was wrong! I'm sorry! Let me go!"
"Gu Shaoxia, my cousin has already apologized; please let him go."
Sheng grabbed Gu Hanyuan's arm with tears in her eyes.
Gu Hanyuan glanced at Sheng and lifted his foot.
Seeing this, Sheng hurriedly helped Wang Xiaofeng up.
But Wang Xiaofeng had already passed out from the pain.
Seeing Gu Hanyuan look over again, Sheng, who had reacted, hurriedly bowed to Qu Feiyan:
"Miss Qu, I'm sorry, my White Dragon almost hit you."
She felt particularly aggrieved, and the tears in her eyes couldn't stop, gradually choking up.
The three women didn't have any ill will toward Sheng; they had seen her wanting to apologize to Qu Feiyan before, but she was interrupted by Wang Xiaofeng.
Seeing her like this at this moment, they all felt unbearable.
Especially Qu Feiyan, who felt it was all caused by herself; feeling guilty, she hurriedly helped Sheng up.
"Big Sister, I don't blame you, get up quickly."
Sheng secretly looked up at Gu Hanyuan, but saw that his previous cold expression had disappeared.
Gu Hanyuan put on his usual gentle smile and said to her:
"I have heard of the Bell-Sword Duo; is the young lady the daughter of 'Southern Four Oddities' Hero Dai, Miss Sheng?"
Sheng was a bit dazed by Gu Hanyuan's sudden change in attitude, especially after he was no longer cold, his gentle smile made her heart beat faster.
"Yes, my father is precisely Dai."
"Young Lady, I am Gu Hanyuan. I have long admired the name of the 'Southern Four Oddities' and will have the opportunity to pay a visit to your father."
The "Southern Four Oddities" indeed had a great reputation in the Song Guo; in terms of martial arts alone, each was on par with the Blood Knife Old Ancestor.
Although they were killed or injured by the Blood Knife Old Ancestor relying on terrain and schemes in "Liancheng Jue," it didn't mean they were all fakes.
It can only be said that the Blood Knife Old Ancestor was indeed the number one person in actual combat in Jin's books.
"Gu Shaoxia, thank you for killing Tian Boguang for all the women in the world; my father will definitely be happy if he knows you are going to see him."
Sheng also breathed a sigh of relief after the atmosphere eased, and also knew that Gu Hanyuan's strong and domineering attitude was just because he protected his own.
She even felt a bit envious of Guo Fu and Yue Lingshan in her heart.
"You're welcome; a flower-plucking thief like Tian Boguang should naturally be killed by everyone. Young Lady, you should take your cousin to be treated first."
Gu Hanyuan glanced at Wang Xiaofeng, who was already starting to have fresh blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth, and felt that if he wasn't rescued, he would probably die here...
Sheng also realized that the urgent matter was to send Wang Xiaofeng to treat his injuries, and left after saying goodbye to Gu Hanyuan.
After Sheng left, looking at Wang Xiaofeng who was still unconscious, she couldn't help but feel a bit dissatisfied; she originally had a good impression of him, but his performance today was really too disappointing.
And meeting the admired Gu Hanyuan was originally a happy thing, but it left a bad impression.
Fortunately, she wasn't treated differently during the subsequent contact, and he was always gentle and polite.
It made her sigh that he was worthy of being the "Hero Sword" who was famous in the Jianghu.
And Gu Hanyuan, seeing Sheng leave, planned to take the two women to continue strolling around Hengyang City.
However, Qu Feiyan said she was very familiar with Hengyang City, so she could be their guide to express her gratitude.
Gu Hanyuan naturally wouldn't object; he still had a good impression of this mischievous girl.
Although Guo Fu and Yue Lingshan had some opinions, seeing that Qu Feiyan was two or three years younger than them and always called them "Big Sister" sweetly, they couldn't say words of refusal.
Gu Hanyuan looked at Guo and Yue, the two women, being so easily handled by Qu Feiyan, and found it quite funny; they were indeed too simple.
Afterward, Qu Feiyan took Gu Hanyuan and the three of them to stroll around Hengyang City.
She indeed didn't lie; after all, because she often followed her grandfather to Hengyang City secretly, her familiarity with this place was very high.
After the four of them strolled for more than half an hour, Guo and Yue, the two women, were a bit tired.
Qu Feiyan saw a building in front and her eyes turned, then she suggested:
"Brother Gu, Sister Guo, Sister Yue, in front is the Qunyu Courtyard; shall we go in and rest for a while?"
Guo Fu and Yue Lingshan saw that the Qunyu Courtyard she mentioned was actually a brothel, and they spat in dissatisfaction with flushed faces:
"Feifei, don't talk nonsense; that's not a place we can go."
Qu Feiyan, however, said with a smile:
"Qunyu Courtyard is famous in Hengyang City. It's not just a place for pleasure; you can go listen to music and watch dancing. Besides, it's precisely because there's no opportunity to go on weekdays that we should go see it. Anyway, with Brother Gu here, what are you afraid of happening?"
Gu Hanyuan reached out and tapped Qu Feiyan's forehead lightly:
"Mischievous."
Qu Feiyan stuck out her fragrant tongue, but didn't look scared at all. ===== CHAPTER 188 =====
