Chapter 402

After preparing herself mentally to be blackmailed once, she asked:

"Then what must I do for you to tell me?"

"You, Ye Erniang, certainly do have some charm; you must have been a beauty when you were young, right? No wonder you were able to bewitch Sikuang Xuan Ci into breaking his vows."

As Gu Hanyuan spoke, he reached out and stroked Ye Erniang's cheek.

Although those few scars did indeed affect her beauty somewhat.

Gu Hanyuan had the Beauty-Restoring Pill in his hand.

So he didn't mind.

Ye Erniang was stunned by his lewdness.

She never expected that this was Gu Hanyuan's purpose.

She had roamed the Jianghu and earned a fearsome reputation.

She was even ranked second among the Four Great Evils.

No one had ever been interested in her appearance before.

Encountering this situation for the first time, she only felt panicked.

However, she was experienced in life, after all.

She steadied herself and slapped away Gu Hanyuan's hand.

She refused him bluntly:

"In your dreams!"

Although Gu Hanyuan hadn't done this for a while.

He still skillfully and coldly threatened her:

"Heh, since I have come, I never intended to return empty-handed. Ye Erniang, you wouldn't want Sikuang Xuan Ci or your son to meet with misfortune, would you?"

Sure enough, as soon as Ye Erniang heard Gu Hanyuan's threat, she panicked.

With her most important lover and son being threatened.

How could she still have the toughness from just a moment ago?

She begged:

"I beg you, do not harm them."

The eyes visible through Gu Hanyuan's mask were indifferent.

He spoke softly:

"Then you know what to do, don't you?"

Seeing that things had reached this point, Ye Erniang.

Knew that resistance was futile.

Harboring a glimmer of hope, she bargained:

"Can you let me see my son first?"

However, Gu Hanyuan did not satisfy her wish.

His tone was icy:

"I have never had the habit of paying the reward first. As long as you satisfy me, I will naturally take you to see your son."

Ye Erniang hesitated.

Unfortunately, she could not think of a way to break the deadlock.

And she was desperate to see her son.

Finally, she said hatefully:

"If I find out you are lying to me, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost."

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Gu Hanyuan.

Said leisurely:

"Heh, I have always been a man of my word."

Seeing that Ye Erniang no longer resisted.

He tossed the Beauty-Restoring Pill to her.

"Eat it."

Ye Erniang had already prepared herself to endure the humiliation.

She didn't expect to be interrupted again.

She asked suspiciously:

"What is this?"

Gu Hanyuan chuckled and said:

"Are you afraid I'll poison you?"

However, these words dispelled Ye Erniang's doubts.

With her leverage already in Gu Hanyuan's hands.

What would be the point of poisoning her?

She ate the Beauty-Restoring Pill decisively.

Very soon, the Beauty-Restoring Pill took effect.

The scars on Ye Erniang's face vanished instantly.

Even her face, weathered by wind and frost and sorrow, was restored.

Gu Hanyuan looked at Ye Erniang's now-charming and beautiful appearance.

He was quite satisfied.

Although he wanted to eat some plain tea and simple rice.

He didn't want to wrong himself in the slightest.

Ye Erniang felt some numbness and itching on her face.

She subconsciously looked into the mirror.

And discovered that her appearance had been restored.

She was shocked.

Gently stroking her face, she asked in confusion:

"What is going on?"

Gu Hanyuan said with a subtle tone:

"I have no interest in swallowing things whole. So I just restored your appearance for you."

Ye Erniang's eyes were complex.

What woman in the world doesn't care about her appearance?

Especially since she had been a beauty before.

It was just that the scars on her face and years of sorrow had made her lose that desire.

"I will give you a piece of advice: remember to wear a veil from now on, otherwise, you will have no small amount of trouble."

Seeing that Ye Erniang was still immersed in the surprise of her restored appearance.

Gu Hanyuan gave her a reminder.

But he was also reminding Ye Erniang that it was time to get down to business.

Ye Erniang was shocked by Gu Hanyuan's miraculous methods.

She dared not resist even more.

Seeing his unmoved demeanor.

How could she not know what Gu Hanyuan was thinking?

She stepped forward with some difficulty.

Wu Xingyun turned over at this moment.

Her small hand reached out to touch.

She did not touch that familiar person.

She opened her autumn-like eyes in a daze.
