Chapter 706

The tenderness and doting in his eyes brought her back to her senses.

Her beautiful and pretty face was like spring flowers in bloom,

radiating a moving color.

It actually had quite a bit of the charm of Huang Rong's beauty that could put the moon to shame and make flowers close.

Seeing Guo Fu regain her spirit,

Gu Hanyuan looked indifferently at Guo Jing and said coldly:

"Guo Daxia, Gu Mou respects you for defending Xiangyang with righteousness. But that does not mean Gu Mou can agree with this method."

Hearing Gu Hanyuan refer to himself as 'Gu Mou',

Huang Rong knew that he was angry.

He was not only angry for Guo Fu,

but also angry for her.

This sentiment made her unable to restrain herself.

She could not help but extend her slender fingers to soothe him.

Guo Fu likewise felt Gu Hanyuan's sentiment.

With eyes brimming with emotion, she held hands with Huang Rong.

Guo Jing sighed helplessly:

"Sigh. Why doesn't Young Master Gu understand? Isn't the so-called greater good just sacrificing the small self to fulfill the greater self?"

Gu Hanyuan had long anticipated Guo Jing's pedantry.

Otherwise, he would not have been trapped in Xiangyang City,

yet never thought of seeking an official position

to formally enter the imperial court.

Without changing Song Guo from the roots,

what use would it be even if he did more?

Gu Hanyuan remained calm on the surface.

He sneered:

"That is only the greater good in Guo Daxia's heart."

Seeing Gu Hanyuan's firm will,

Guo Jing could only continue to urge him earnestly:

"But if one day in the future Song Guo is breached by other countries, then it will be a scene of devastation."

Gu Hanyuan smiled proudly.

He said aloud:

"Guo Daxia's heart only holds Song Guo. Gu Mou's heart, however, holds the entire world."

When he said this, it was as if he ignored distance.

A map of the entire world flashed through his eyes.

That demeanor of looking down upon the world was enough to make one admire him.

"Gu Mou's ambition is to expel the Tatars and restore China. It does not rely on sacrificing women, but on these hands of Gu Mou."

Both women could not help but be attracted by Gu Hanyuan's peerless passion.

Guo Fu's eyes were filled with a moving, soft light.

Huang Rong listened to Gu Hanyuan's impassioned words,

thinking of the hands that would fulfill his ambition,

one of which belonged to her.

She immediately could not help but cover her mouth,

her delicate body trembling.

It took a long time for her to recover.

Such a large movement naturally attracted Guo Jing's attention.

He asked strangely:

"Rong'er, what is wrong?"

How could Huang Rong dare to tell him the truth?

With a flushed face, she picked up her wine cup and prevaricated:

"It is nothing, I was just choked by the wine."

That astonishingly charming demeanor made even Guo Jing lose his focus for a moment.

It was only under Huang Rong's light cough that he returned to his senses.

He immediately lost the desire to dwell on it.

He praised awkwardly:

"Young Master Gu has a great ambition, I am ashamed of my inferiority. We should indeed drink a large cup."

Guo Fu had almost witnessed Huang Rong's posture of being at his mercy.

Her eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.

She instinctively felt her mouth go dry.

Gu Hanyuan did not want Guo Jing to pay too much attention to the state of the two women.

He threw out a topic that Guo Jing cared about immensely.

He asked leisurely:

"Gu Mou has heard that Guo Daxia followed Genghis Khan on his western expedition when you were young. Could you tell Gu Mou about it?"

Hearing this, Guo Jing was startled.

......... 0

Then his eyes became distant and unfocused,

as if he had fallen into memories.

He said slowly:

"The Great Khan... he was indeed a peerless hero. Since Young Master Gu wants to know, then I will tell you."

Huang Rong looked at Guo Jing, who was lost in memories at this moment.

Her eyes flickered for a moment.

Suddenly, she said apologetically:

"Sorry, my chopsticks fell."

After saying this, she bent down to pick up the fallen chopsticks.

Only, this process took much longer than imagined.

When she looked up,

her already beautiful face was even more radiant.

Guo Jing was currently immersed in the tangled memories of the past.

He only replied subconsciously:

"Rong'er, be careful."

Saying this, he began to introduce the Genghis Khan he knew.

"Young Master Gu, the Great Khan, he..."

Guo Fu, however, looked at Huang Rong in shock.

She did not expect her to have caught up to her progress so quickly.

A sense of unwillingness grew in her heart.

After this,

Guo Jing was immersed in recounting the memories of the past,

while Huang Rong and Guo Fu would drop their chopsticks from time to time.

Yet they never dropped their chopsticks at the same time.

It was as if one would finish singing and the other would take the stage.

Until Guo Jing finished speaking. ===== CHAPTER 708 =====
