Chapter 772
Being so close, Ji Ji Yaohua’s physical condition could naturally not be hidden from him, as he was proficient in medicine.
Such means would only be used by An Yunshan; An Shigeng would not be willing.
It was no wonder Ji Ji Yaohua increasingly longed for freedom and took the risk to see Gu Gu Hanyuan at night.
Gu Gu Hanyuan’s mouth curled up, causing Ji Ji Yaohua to exclaim.
"Umm...?"
With a flushed face, she said urgently:
"I have delivered Master An’s message. Young Master Gu, please let me go; I should take my leave."
Ji Ji Yaohua only wanted to leave as soon as possible, otherwise, she might really wake up in a strange room.
However, Gu Gu Hanyuan would not let her have her way.
Not only did he not let her go, but he held her even tighter.
He said meaningfully:
"Why is Miss Ji in such a hurry? An Shigeng’s business is finished, so what about Miss Ji’s own business?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Ji Yaohua was stunned, and seeing that she truly could not leave, she had to give up helplessly and ask:
"What does Young Master Gu mean?"
Gu Gu Hanyuan picked up a few strands of Ji Ji Yaohua’s hair and sniffed them at the tip of his nose.
He was a bit surprised that it was actually the scent of roses, only the scent was slightly dark.
Black rose?
Seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan move his hand away, Ji Ji Yaohua breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, she would have been humiliated.
However, Gu Gu Hanyuan’s finger tapped lightly on her abdomen, which stunned her.
The chuckle that came to her ear made her even more at a loss.
"Miss Ji’s body being poisoned with a time-delayed poison cannot be hidden from me."
Ji Ji Yaohua’s expression turned ugly for a moment.
But then she reacted and asked blankly:
"Can Young Master Gu cure it?"
"Naturally, although the poison on Miss Ji is a bit strange and troublesome to cure, it is not an incurable poison."
Gu Gu Hanyuan said indifferently.
Ji Ji Yaohua was poisoned with a time-delayed poison; such poisons were all used to control people.
Although it was not as overbearing and difficult to cure as the "Three-Corpse Brain-Spirit Pill" or the "Leopard Fetus Tendon-Changing Pill."
But the poison refined with the An family’s financial resources was not something an ordinary person could cure.
Ji Ji Yaohua was helpless about this, but for Gu Gu Hanyuan, this kind of non-special poison was not difficult to cure.
Ji Ji Yaohua had never thought that there would be a day when this poison could be cured.
At this moment, she asked subconsciously:
"Is Young Master Gu willing to help me?"
That face, as beautiful as spring flowers, was full of urgency.
Gu Gu Hanyuan’s expression was languid as he said indifferently:
"I just don't like being free-ridden, but that doesn't mean I'm unwilling to help a beautiful Miss Ji."
Upon hearing this, Ji Ji Yaohua was slightly stunned, and with a sense of luck, she asked hesitantly:
"What are Young Master Gu’s conditions?"
Gu Gu Hanyuan laughed lightly with a suggestive tone:
"Does Miss Ji really not know?"
Ji Ji Yaohua’s heart was conflicted.
The cure seemed to be right in front of her, yet she couldn't make up her mind.
She was still unwilling to give up the only thing she had.
Ji Ji Yaohua bit her cherry lips tightly and asked earnestly:
"Can Young Master Gu change the condition?"
Gu Gu Hanyuan’s mouth curled into a playful arc, and he said indifferently:
"I heard that Miss Ji has a few good sisters, and I am quite interested in them as well."
Upon hearing this, Ji Ji Yaohua was shocked and said excitedly:
"No!"
If her body was the persistence that belonged solely to her.
Then those sisters of hers were the pillars of her emotions.
Gu Gu Hanyuan’s request hit her fatal weakness all at once.
Want freedom? Want life? Want purity? Or want sisters?
Ji Ji Yaohua had never realized that she cared about so many things.
She glared at Gu Gu Hanyuan resentfully and said in a low mood:
"Young Master Gu, please let me go."
Ji Ji Yaohua had made her choice.
It wasn't that she really didn't care about the cure anymore.
But she suddenly realized that even if the poison was cured, it didn't mean she could escape the An family’s control.
Not only were her little sisters used as hostages, but she also feared the An family’s power.
Gu Gu Hanyuan had anticipated this long ago.
Dissolving her fear of the An family and giving her enough sense of security would have to wait until they reached the capital.
But before that, he had to leave her with a deep memory.
Otherwise, the object of her wavering might not necessarily be himself.
Gu Gu Hanyuan laughed lightly with an inexplicable meaning:
"Miss Ji, free-riding is not a good habit."
Ji Ji Yaohua knew that her intention to use Gu Gu Hanyuan’s prestige to borrow his power could not be hidden from him at all.
However, hearing Gu Gu Hanyuan’s talk of "free-riding," she felt indignant in her heart.
Especially when she looked down and saw her slightly messy collar, she felt even more sorrowful.
She said coldly:
"What does Young Master Gu want?"
"I have already said before, I hope Miss Ji can accompany me for a drink."
Gu Gu Hanyuan looked up at the snowflakes suddenly drifting in the sky, picked up the wine pot, and poured himself a full cup of wine.
He said with a subtle smile:
"This wine is called Frost Flower Spring, it is the best for warming the body..."
Gu Gu Hanyuan drank the wine in the cup and, in Ji Ji Yaohua’s astonished gaze, leaned forward.
Ji Ji Yaohua’s red lips felt warm, and a chuckle echoed in her ears.
"Drinking wine this way is the most delicious."
