Chapter 750

~7 min read 1,236 words

Gu Gu Hanyuan frowned and asked:

"What has already happened?"

Seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan still playing dumb, Long Long Xiaoyun said with hidden anger:

Long Long Xiaoyun was indeed extremely shameless, and at this moment, he deliberately pushed the responsibility onto Lin Lin Shiyin.

Doesn't "unchaste" mean that Lin Lin Shiyin seduced Gu Gu Hanyuan?

Saying this was to give Gu Gu Hanyuan a way out so that he could better negotiate terms.

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s expression turned slightly cold, and he said in a deep voice:

"I admit that I like your wife, but your wife is a good woman who has always held her bottom line and has not lost her chastity. Instead of accompanying and cherishing such a good wife, you suspect her? Long Long Xiaoyun, you truly are blessed but don't know it."

Long Long Xiaoyun was stunned upon hearing this.

He didn't know that Gu Gu Hanyuan had swapped the concept.

Lin Lin Shiyin indeed hadn't lost her chastity, but they had played plenty in other ways.

Of course, Long Long Xiaoyun certainly didn't believe it, just thinking it was an excuse Gu Gu Hanyuan made for his own reputation.

It was also possible that Gu Gu Hanyuan just wanted to "dine and dash."

How could Long Long Xiaoyun accept that?

Therefore, after being silent for a moment, he followed Gu Gu Hanyuan’s words and said:

"Since Young Master Gu says Lin Shiyin hasn't lost her chastity and admits to liking Lin Shiyin, then I would like to make a deal with Young Master Gu."

"A deal?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s eyes flickered, his eyebrows furrowed, but his heart was full of playfulness.

Long Long Xiaoyun had finally taken the bait.

Seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan seemed somewhat moved.

He felt much more relaxed, and earth-shattering words came out of his mouth:

"I am willing to persuade Lin Shiyin."

Gu Gu Hanyuan said with a strange expression:

"Fourth Master Long is quite generous, but I have one thing I don't understand. It is rumored that Fourth Master Long loves Lin Lin Shiyin deeply; why discard her like a worn-out shoe now?"

Long Long Xiaoyun felt a surge of anger upon hearing this.

He only felt that Gu Gu Hanyuan was poking at a sore spot.

If it weren't for the suspicion that Gu Gu Hanyuan had already taken Lin Lin Shiyin’s body and was still thinking of "dining and dashing," he wouldn't have used Lin Lin Shiyin for a trade.

The only good news was that Gu Gu Hanyuan’s form of address had changed.

The title "Fourth Master Long" was completely puffed up; Gu Gu Hanyuan had always called him by his name directly.

Clearly, his proposal had moved Gu Gu Hanyuan, which was why there was a bit more respect.

However, since Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't admit it, Long Long Xiaoyun could only follow his lead and say:

"Since Young Master Gu knows about me and Lin Shiyin, I imagine you have also heard about the grudges between us and Li Li Xunhuan, right?"

"I have heard a little."

Long Long Xiaoyun’s face became even gloomier as he said:

"Lin Shiyin has always loved Li Li Xunhuan in her heart. Since she doesn't have me in her heart, why shouldn't I use her for a trade?"

This was also a part of Long Long Xiaoyun’s thoughts.

Various reasons added together prompted him to make this decision at this moment.

Gu Gu Hanyuan pondered for a moment and laughed mockingly:

"Fourth Master Long is quite clear-headed, unwilling to suffer a loss for nothing. But since Fourth Master Long is putting up such a heavy stake for the trade, I imagine you are planning something big. I wonder what Fourth Master Long wants to trade with me?"

Seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan loosen his stance, Long Long Xiaoyun’s eyes lit up.

As for the mockery, it was naturally ignored by him automatically.

Long Long Xiaoyun said somewhat nervously:

"I have two things to ask for."

Gu Gu Hanyuan said faintly, noncommittally:

"Tell me what kind of things they are."

Long Long Xiaoyun’s face sank, and he said in a condensed voice:

"I want to ask Young Master Gu not to interfere with Li Li Xunhuan’s matter anymore."

"Does Fourth Master Long not want Li Li Xunhuan to leave alive?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s expression was indifferent.

Since the conversation had reached this point, there was no need to cover it up anymore.

Long Long Xiaoyun didn't care about being seen through by Gu Gu Hanyuan and said directly:

"Young Master Gu, please understand; the grudges between Li Li Xunhuan and me must be settled eventually."

A deep light flashed in Gu Gu Hanyuan’s eyes, and he pondered:

"The people from the Six Fan School will be here soon; Fourth Master Long doesn't have much time left."

Although Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't agree directly, these words already indicated his thoughts.

Therefore, Long Long Xiaoyun said with great joy:

"As long as Young Master Gu doesn't interfere, that’s enough."

Gu Gu Hanyuan said faintly, noncommittally:

"Tell me your second request."

Long Long Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment.

He smiled slightly flatteringly:

"That... the 'Innate Sunflower Divine Art' that Young Master Gu gave to A’fei..."

Gu Gu Hanyuan looked at Long Long Xiaoyun with a smile that wasn't a smile and said:

"Heh, you have some insight, even setting your sights on my 'Innate Sunflower Divine Art'."

Long Long Xiaoyun’s face immediately became awkward.

Settling the grudge with Li Li Xunhuan was barely a justifiable reason.

Trading a wife for a divine art—it sounded bad.

However, Long Long Xiaoyun still asked nervously:

"What does Young Master Gu think?"

It was not surprising that Long Long Xiaoyun would have this request.

Or rather, this was a catalyst Gu Gu Hanyuan had sent to him.

Otherwise, simply letting him and Li Li Xunhuan fight might not have been enough to make Long Long Xiaoyun gamble everything and use Lin Lin Shiyin as a bargaining chip.

After seeing the effect of A’fei learning the "Innate Sunflower Divine Art," Long Long Xiaoyun was bound to be moved.

First for revenge, second for profit.

Gu Gu Hanyuan took out an "Innate Sunflower Divine Art" manual from his bosom, identical to the one he had given A’fei, and threw it into Long Long Xiaoyun’s arms.

He said faintly, amidst his ecstatic expression:

"Since Fourth Master Long is willing to use his beloved wife as a trade, this request should naturally be satisfied."

Long Long Xiaoyun was stunned upon hearing this.

The implication in Gu Gu Hanyuan’s words was obvious.

Reminding him not to forget to persuade Lin Lin Shiyin to take the initiative to come to him.

Long Long Xiaoyun felt reluctance, guilt, and embarrassment—all sorts of emotions.

Finally, looking at the manual in his hand, his eyes turned into a fire of determination and ambition.

He said in a deep voice:

"Young Master Gu, rest assured; when I go back, I will persuade Lin Shiyin."

As for taking the manual and not doing the job, he didn't have the guts.

Not to mention that the matter with Li Li Xunhuan was not yet finished.

"Then I will wait for the good news; don't keep me waiting too long."

Gu Gu Hanyuan left behind an indifferent sentence and disappeared from where he stood.

Leaving Long Long Xiaoyun alone in the cold wind, lost in thought.
