Chapter 580

~4 min read 717 words

She said coyly:

"The brothers always only pay attention to Axiu, and no one has ever praised me like Young Master Gu."

Gu Hanyuan said solemnly:

"That is because they have no eye for beauty. In my eyes, I would never overlook Miss Hua."

Hua Wanzi could not quite handle such praise from Gu Hanyuan.

She gave a coquettish snort:

"Young Master Gu."

The two did not talk about any serious business at all.

Whether chatting about trivial matters of life,

or chatting about daily cultivation,

or chatting about interesting anecdotes in the Jianghu,

it made Hua Wanzi laugh repeatedly.

The blush on her face never faded.

Hua Wanzi only felt that she had never been this relaxed before.

A flash of realization crossed her heart.

"Young Master Gu is indeed different from others; no wonder he has so many confidantes by his side."

She had once retreated because of this.

This experience of being alone made her hesitate again.

Hua Wanzi suddenly noticed that the sky was slightly dark.

It turned out that they had been chatting happily for most of the day without realizing it.

She had not been able to feel the passage of time at all before this.

Hua Wanzi said shyly:

"Young Master Gu, it is already late. I should go back."

Gu Hanyuan pretended to have a sudden realization.

He shook his head helplessly and smiled:

"With a beauty like Miss Hua for company, time passes too quickly."

Hua Wanzi had heard praise all day,

and had developed some immunity.

She blushed and said goodbye to Gu Hanyuan.

She felt that if she stayed any longer, she wouldn't be able to leave.

Gu Hanyuan looked at Hua Wanzi's departing back.

He smiled detachedly.

The night was the main event.

Returning to the room,

Shi Jian had already made the bed.

She was sitting on a stool in a daze.

Gu Hanyuan walked closer.

He gently patted her hair and smiled:

"Shi Jian, you go back and rest."

Shi Jian asked in surprise:

"Does the Young Master not need me to serve you at night?"

Many servant girls in this era were expected to wait in the room on call.

Gu Hanyuan smiled lightly:

"Oh? Does Shi Jian want to serve in bed?"

A blush appeared on Shi Jian's face.

She said hesitantly:

"If the Young Master wants to..."

Gu Hanyuan was different from Shi Zhongyu.

In Shi Jian's mind, he was a great hero.

She knew her status was low,

and did not dare to have too many delusions.

But if Gu Hanyuan had a request,

she still had some expectations.

Unfortunately, Gu Hanyuan had a more exquisite late-night snack to eat tonight.

He had no interest in Shi Jian.

He said softly:

"Go back and rest."

"Yes, Young Master."

Shi Jian bowed and retreated in disappointment.

Gu Hanyuan took out a pot of "Evil Fragrance Infusion".

It was made by soaking plant leaves during the Spring Equinox.

The color was naturally emerald green and clear to the bottom.

The leaves were clearly visible, with an antique charm.

The fragrance was pungent, and the aftertaste was endless after drinking.

While he poured and drank by himself,

he waited for the prey to deliver itself to his door.

The night was deep.

A barely audible knock on the door sounded.

If one was not focused,

one would not be able to hear it at all.

The corner of Gu Hanyuan's mouth curled into a playful smile.

He said indifferently:

"Visiting late at night, there must be something important, please come in."

The person outside the door was silent for a moment.

Then pushed the door and entered.

It was none other than the sorrowful-looking Min Rou.

Min Rou was dressed in white.

She was elegant, gentle, and beautiful.

Her face, still stained with tears,

lacked the heroic spirit of a female warrior,

but had more of a pitiful charm.

Gu Hanyuan pretended to be astonished.

He asked in surprise:

"Aunt Min? Why are you here?"

After speaking, he stepped forward to welcome her into the room,

and closed the door behind him.

Min Rou was overly worried,

and did not notice anything unusual.

She was led by Gu Hanyuan to sit on a stool.

After settling her mood, ===== CHAPTER 582 =====
