Chapter 743

She had been paying attention to the time Gu Gu Hanyuan returned to the inner courtyard after the banquet ended.

She wanted to find Gu Gu Hanyuan to accept punishment on the grounds that she hadn't practiced well yesterday.

And take the opportunity to get close to him while accepting the punishment.

However, Long Long Xiaoyun didn't intercept him in the courtyard, nor did she find him in Gu Gu Hanyuan’s room.

She subconsciously guessed that Gu Gu Hanyuan had gone to her mother’s place.

Long Long Xiaoyun went to Lin Lin Shiyin’s boudoir with a hesitant mood.

As a result, she unexpectedly discovered that neither Gu Gu Hanyuan nor Lin Lin Shiyin was there.

While confirming that the two were indeed likely together, Long Long Xiaoyun was also puzzled about where they had gone.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration led her to think of Lengxiang Lengxiang Xiaozhu.

The relationship between Sun Xiaohong and Lin Lin Shiyin was average.

But Lin Xian'er was ostensibly Lin Lin Shiyin’s good little sister.

And although she hated Lin Xian'er, Lin Xian'er was indeed very beautiful.

It was normal for Gu Gu Hanyuan to take a fancy to her.

However, this made Long Long Xiaoyun angry.

It was fine that Lin Lin Shiyin had stolen her beloved master.

After all, she was the mother she had once been closest to.

But what was Lin Xian'er?

Long Long Xiaoyun hadn't decided whether to have a showdown with Lin Lin Shiyin, nor did she know what to do after the showdown.

Ask Lin Lin Shiyin to leave Gu Gu Hanyuan?

Let alone whether Lin Lin Shiyin would be sad.

What she was more worried about was whether Gu Gu Hanyuan would be angry.

Just thinking of Gu Gu Hanyuan’s cold attitude when they first met made Long Long Xiaoyun feel a chill.

It was hard to imagine Gu Gu Hanyuan, who was now intimate, getting angry at her and putting on a cold face.

Therefore, Long Long Xiaoyun’s idea was to work hard to regain Gu Gu Hanyuan’s attention and let his gaze fall on her.

It would be even better if the relationship could go a step further.

In reality, Long Long Xiaoyun was still a bit ignorant about how to do it.

Lin Lin Shiyin’s original intention to teach Long Long Xiaoyun about things for a young girl was also disrupted by Gu Gu Hanyuan’s forceful intrusion and ended up in nothing.

Long Long Xiaoyun just subconsciously felt that she should be closer and more with Gu Gu Hanyuan.

She had left quite a few kisses on Gu Gu Hanyuan’s handsome side face.

Especially that dragonfly-like kiss at the end was the key to her heart’s first stirrings.

And that customary punishment process made her instincts gradually awaken.

All Long Long Xiaoyun could think of was to take the initiative to do these things more.

In short, the fact between Lin Lin Shiyin and Gu Gu Hanyuan was already a done deal.

Long Long Xiaoyun didn't want to destroy it irrationally.

But she couldn't tolerate Lin Xian'er.

Therefore, Long Long Xiaoyun went to Lengxiang Lengxiang Xiaozhu with a gloomy face.

The anger in Long Long Xiaoyun’s eyes, who had originally wanted to hold them accountable, was replaced by disbelief.

Long Long Xiaoyun didn't know when she had returned to her room in a daze.

The images she had seen through the door crack kept flashing in her mind.

Her mother, who was always gentle, kind, and dignified, was actually in such a humble appearance.

Yet the expression of enjoying it showed that she didn't dislike it.

And Gu Gu Hanyuan’s pleasant and comfortable expression proved that Lin Lin Shiyin and Lin Xian'er’s methods were correct.

Long Long Xiaoyun, who had been led astray, thought that this was the correct way to please Gu Gu Hanyuan.

As for what Gu Gu Hanyuan had done to her before, she feared he had just treated her as a little girl.

A fire ignited in Long Long Xiaoyun’s heart.

Unwillingness, jealousy, and anger turned into fuel, burning brighter and brighter.

How could Gu Gu Hanyuan not discover Long Long Xiaoyun’s peeping? He was slightly surprised but didn't expose her.

Or rather, this was part of his plan.

It was just that Long Long Xiaoyun entered the game a little early.

Long Long Xiaoyun didn't see the whole process and missed the beginning.

However, precisely because of this, the impact on her was even greater.

Because from her perspective, Lin Lin Shiyin did it voluntarily, not after being incited by Lin Xian'er.

Long Long Xiaoyun thought Lin Lin Shiyin had completely changed her heart.

This suddenly made her feel a bit guilty toward her father, Long Long Xiaoyun.

Although the father-daughter relationship was not good, seeing her mother abandon her father with her own eyes made Long Long Xiaoyun feel sad for Long Long Xiaoyun in her heart.

She had once clashed with Sun Xiaohong to maintain the marriage and reputation of Long Long Xiaoyun and Lin Lin Shiyin.

The culprit back then was Li Li Xunhuan, but now it was the beloved master she had brought into the house with her own hands.

This made the guilt in Long Long Xiaoyun’s heart even worse, yet she couldn't do anything.

She couldn't stop Gu Gu Hanyuan and Lin Lin Shiyin, nor could she tell Long Long Xiaoyun the truth.

The only thing that gave her a strange sense of comfort was that perhaps Lin Lin Shiyin didn't love Long Long Xiaoyun in the first place, but Li Li Xunhuan.

The content of Sun Xiaohong’s storytelling and some rumors in the Wu Lin were not groundless.

Otherwise, Long Long Xiaoyun wouldn't have hated Li Li Xunhuan so much back then.

Now Lin Lin Shiyin had just changed the object of her affection.

And Lin Lin Shiyin and Long Long Xiaoyun had been living in separate rooms for many years.

Seriously calculating, Long Long Xiaoyun’s loss wasn't as great as imagined.

As long as it didn't spread and cause damage to his reputation, Long Long Xiaoyun was just a bit humiliated.

It is said that girls turn outward, and turning their elbows outward is the norm.

Long Long Xiaoyun had already subconsciously persuaded herself to accept it for Gu Gu Hanyuan’s sake.

Long Long Xiaoyun, who hadn't slept all night, came to the courtyard on time with a tired and haggard little face.

Originally, this was the time she should have started practicing, but she had no mood to practice at this moment.

Long Long Xiaoyun sat on the stone stool and stared blankly.

It wasn't until a familiar big hand touched her head that she came back to her senses.

Looking at Gu Gu Hanyuan, who was smiling gently in front of her, Long Long Xiaoyun only felt aggrieved for a moment.

She shouted "Master..." with a sobbing tone.

The familiar scent and the gentle stroking of her back made her feel at ease.

But the conflicted mood made her not know how to speak.

Gu Gu Hanyuan understood Long Long Xiaoyun’s mood and laid his cards on the table directly.

"Long Xiaoyun, did you see it?"

Long Long Xiaoyun was startled.

Thinking of Gu Gu Hanyuan’s divine martial arts, perhaps he hadn't been hidden from from the beginning.

This made her feel a bit ashamed, after all, peeping was immoral.

However, she unexpectedly felt relieved.

A showdown was much better than her own hesitation and conflict.

Long Long Xiaoyun looked up from Gu Gu Hanyuan’s arms, looked at those clear, deep eyes, and said in a deep tone:

"Master, do you know that she is my mother?"

"I know."
