Chapter 785

This left Gu Hanyuan somewhat distracted.

A flash of fiery heat crossed his eyes.

He hadn't been fully satisfied last night.

And now, he had been unintentionally teased by Ning Zhongze.

Amidst Ning Zhongze's forcibly stifled gasp,

he swept her up into his arms.

Looking at the flushed, charming face in his embrace,

he teased:

"Since you know, Madam, you must take full responsibility."

Gu Hanyuan did not intend to wake the exhausted Hua Wanzi.

Guided by his divine sense,

he pushed open a room door.

It was not until the sun was high in the sky

that Gu Hanyuan appeared, immediately causing a stir.

The sects that had not yet departed were whispering amongst themselves.

They had not expected that only two days had passed

before Gu Hanyuan returned.

Bai Zizai was the most concerned about the affairs of Knight Island,

so he was the first to ask:

"Young Master Gu, have you returned from Knight Island? Did something happen?"

Gu Hanyuan explained the truth about Knight Island to everyone.

"If you all wait a few more days, you should be able to see those who went to Knight Island before but did not return."

The truth about Knight Island naturally caused an uproar among the crowd.

At the back of the crowd,

Ding Dang looked at Ning Zhongze and Yue Lingshan with a strange expression.

Seeing their delicate, rosy, and alluring complexions,

she leaned into Yue Lingshan's ear and whispered:

"Didn't Brother Gu go to find Sister Hua last night?"

Yue Lingshan said helplessly:

"I don't know what Mother and Brother Gu said this morning. She suddenly became interested."

Ding Dang's eyes flickered with a subtle smile.

She asked the embarrassed Ning Zhongze:

"Sister Ning, what did you say to Brother Gu? Can you tell me?"

Compared to others, Ding Dang was more eager for Gu Hanyuan's affection,

so she was very interested in this.

Ning Zhongze said crossly:

"He is naturally absurd; what does that have to do with me?"

Ding Dang did not believe Ning Zhongze's excuse.

She instinctively hugged Ning Zhongze's arm and acted like a spoiled child:

"Oh, Sister Ning, don't be so stingy."

Ning Zhongze had no way to deal with the clever and eccentric Ding Dang,

so she could only whisper a few words of explanation.

At first, Ding Dang listened with a blush spreading across her pretty face.

By the end,

she said indignantly:

"My mother passed away long ago. This method is useless to me."

Her resentful remark brought a deep red flush to two beautiful faces. ===== CHAPTER 787 =====
