Chapter 597: The lady paid the reward with effort, I must also keep my promise

~3 min read 584 words

Fourth update

Gu Hanyuan put down Ding Dang's reins and the little bell,

and took her to the dungeon.

Different from last night,

Gu Hanyuan directly knocked out the guards,

creating the illusion that Shi Zhongyu had been abducted.

As soon as they entered the dungeon, they heard Shi Zhongyu's wailing and howling pleas.

Gu Hanyuan ignored his terrified expression,

and directly sealed his mute acupoint.

He laughed playfully:

"Ding Dang, Shi Zhongyu is handed over to you."

A flash of ruthlessness crossed Ding Dang's eyes.

She laughed charmingly:

"Don't worry, Brother Yuan. I will treat him well."

Clearly, Ding Dang was still brooding over last night's events.

Gu Hanyuan looked at Shi Zhongyu's flickering eyes,

and could guess that he was hoping that after getting out,

he could rely on sweet talk to deceive Ding Dang again.

But he didn't know how ruthless a woman who had changed her heart could be.

Especially a woman like Ding Dang who had no moral standards.

The deeper the love,

the deeper the hate.

Shi Zhongyu was going to suffer.

Gu Hanyuan took the two of them out of Jiangling City.

Watching Ding Dang drag Shi Zhongyu away like a dead dog,

seeing the night was deep,

Gu Hanyuan, not wanting to sleep alone, wore a subtle smile,

and decided to go see Min Rou,

to avoid making her think he was untrustworthy.

In any case, he had indeed released Shi Zhongyu.

As for Shi Zhongyu's subsequent fate, what did it have to do with him?

Gu Hanyuan arrived at the inn where Shi Qing and Min Rou were staying.

Ever since that day when Shi Qing ignored Min Rou's pleas

and gave up on Shi Zhongyu's life,

although Min Rou still followed Shi Qing's stance on the surface,

she had specifically changed rooms.

So that night when she went to find Gu Hanyuan,

and slept for a long time the next day,

Shi Qing didn't notice anything unusual,

just thinking she was overly sad.

Gu Hanyuan knocked on Min Rou's door at this time.

Lights soon lit up in the room.

"Who?"

Min Rou's slightly nervous yet gentle and virtuous voice sounded from inside the door,

making Gu Hanyuan sigh.

Women are born actors,

adjusting their emotions so quickly,

without a hint of guilt.

Gu Hanyuan said softly:

"Madam, it's me."

Shi Qing had always called Min Rou "Junior Sister,"

while "Madam" had become Gu Hanyuan's exclusive term for her.

That night,

Gu Hanyuan had deliberately called her that when Min Rou couldn't hold out anymore.

Afterwards, no matter how ashamed and angry Min Rou was,

she no longer had the opportunity to object.

At this moment, hearing Gu Hanyuan's call,

Min Rou subconsciously shuddered.

She opened the door lightly but quickly.

Seeing it was indeed Gu Hanyuan outside,

she looked around nervously for a moment,

pulled Gu Hanyuan's wrist into the room,

and locked the door tightly.

With her back against the tightly closed door,

she reached out and clutched her clothes in front of her chest,

as if still trying hard to calm her wild heartbeat.

Min Rou was wearing thin undergarments,

clearly having already gone to sleep.

Hearing Gu Hanyuan's voice, she had hurried to open the door.

That frail appearance was easily able to arouse a man's protective desire.

Min Rou saw Gu Hanyuan still looking at her with that teasing smile,

and asked in a low, annoyed voice:

"Why did you come? Aren't you afraid of running into Senior Brother?"
