Chapter 86

~7 min read 1,388 words

Ling Ling Shuanghua leaned against the door, silent, her eyes complex and her thoughts chaotic.

Suddenly the door was opened, and Ling Ling Shuanghua, losing her balance, screamed and fell backward, but fell into a warm embrace.

Ling Ling Shuanghua was very familiar with this scent; after all, it had filled her nose all night.

A pair of strong and powerful arms were wrapping around her waist.

"Brother Wutian?"

Ling Ling Shuanghua asked in surprise.

"Hmm."

Gu Gu Hanyuan lifted the lower half of his mask, buried his head in Ling Ling Shuanghua’s hair, sniffed that unique fresh chrysanthemum scent, and responded with a vague nasal sound.

Ling Ling Shuanghua was somewhat embarrassed, Yu Wanting to struggle but being made weak by that scorching breath.

"You heard it just now?"

"Hmm."

"I beg you to let Brother Ding go."

"Hmm."

Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't care about Ding Ding Dian at all; he was just a loser.

"What's wrong with you?"

Ling Ling Shuanghua was somewhat puzzled.

"Nothing, I just thought you would follow Ding Ding Dian."

Ling Ling Shuanghua bit her lower lip lightly.

"Since you heard it all, why ask?"

"You can fool that fool Ding Ding Dian, but you can't fool me."

Gu Gu Hanyuan turned Ling Ling Shuanghua around and looked into her eyes.

"Do you like me a little bit?"

"Bah, who would like a bad person like you."

Ling Ling Shuanghua’s face flushed red, and she retorted without hesitation.

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s mouth curled into a playful smile.

"Then did Ling Ling Tuisi come to see you today and say anything?"

Ling Ling Shuanghua hesitated for a moment before telling the truth.

"Father hopes I can steal the 'Selected Tang Poetry' from you."

Ling Ling Shuanghua did not take off her veil when she saw Ling Ling Tuisi today, so Ling Ling Tuisi did not know that her appearance had recovered; otherwise, he would definitely not have just asked to steal the 'Selected Tang Poetry'.

Gu Gu Hanyuan took the 'Selected Tang Poetry' from his bosom and gave it to Ling Ling Shuanghua.

"Here."

Ling Ling Shuanghua did not expect Gu Gu Hanyuan to give her the 'Selected Tang Poetry' so readily.

"Why?"

"In my heart, the treasure is not even a ten-thousandth of you; if you want it, I'll give it to you."

Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't care at all, and even intended to give the 'Selected Tang Poetry' to Ling Ling Tuisi; this was even better.

"I want to take you away; you give the 'Selected Tang Poetry' to Ling Ling Tuisi, just consider it repaying his kindness in raising you."

A trace of emotion flashed in Ling Ling Shuanghua’s eyes.

She thought Gu Gu Hanyuan was different from Ding Ding Dian; he didn't care about the treasure, nor did he care about so-called righteousness. It didn't matter who got the treasure, he cared more about Ling Ling Shuanghua.

Although he always said he only wanted her person and seemed to treat her as a plaything, he was very gentle, both last night and now.

"Are you really going to take me away?"

"Hmm, Jiangling City will soon be surging with wind and clouds because of the treasure; it's not safe for you here."

Ling Ling Shuanghua hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

Unlike Ding Ding Dian, Gu Gu Hanyuan would not have any obstacles in taking Ling Ling Shuanghua away, and Ling Ling Tuisi would not dare to object. Moreover, having the 'Selected Tang Poetry' gave Ling Ling Shuanghua psychological comfort.

"Do you like me a little bit?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan teased.

"Not yet."

Ling Ling Shuanghua said stubbornly.

Gu Gu Hanyuan picked Ling Ling Shuanghua up horizontally.

"I'll ask your body; the body never lies."

Ling Ling Shuanghua was blushing but did not refute.

The next day, Ling Ling Shuanghua was tidying Gu Gu Hanyuan’s collar like a virtuous wife and mother.

"Do you like me yet?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan asked Ling Ling Shuanghua with a light smile.

"Not yet."

Ling Ling Shuanghua lowered her eyes; if you didn't look at her face, which was red to the roots of her ears, it would be somewhat convincing.

"Stubborn."

Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't care, lifted her chin, Yu Wanting to see how stubborn she could be.

Afterward, Gu Gu Hanyuan instructed Ling Ling Shuanghua to give the 'Selected Tang Poetry' to Ling Ling Tuisi and then wait in the room for him to come back and take her away.

After leaving the Ling Mansion, Gu Gu Hanyuan headed straight for the Wan Mansion.

He found that Qi Fang was not staying in the room she originally shared with Wan Gui.

He found her after searching around.

After arguing with Wan Gui yesterday, Qi Fang moved out, not worried that Gu Gu Hanyuan wouldn't find her.

Qi Fang was worrying about the little Heart-Cabbage’s situation in the room when she was pleasantly surprised to see the door pushed open by Gu Gu Hanyuan.

"Brother Wutian!"

"My lady, your look of surprise is very easy for me to misunderstand."

Gu Gu Hanyuan smiled playfully.

Qi Fang spat, but still asked for help:

"Bah, the little Heart-Cabbage was taken away by Wan Wan Zhenshan and the others. Can you help me save the little Heart-Cabbage back?"

"Tsk, I just helped you save Di Yun last night, and today you want me to help you save the little Heart-Cabbage. My lady, are you asking for too much?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan pinched Qi Fang’s chin and said with dissatisfaction.

"Has my martial brother already been saved by you?"

Qi Fang obviously didn't expect Gu Gu Hanyuan’s actions to be so fast, and didn't care that her chin was being pinched, asking in surprise.

"I also found him a master suitable for him; I estimate that after practicing for a year or two, he will be famous."

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s eyes were subtle; he didn't know if the Blood Saber Ancestor could bend Di Yun’s kind nature.

After hearing Gu Gu Hanyuan’s words, Qi Fang felt he wouldn't use such things to lie to her; perhaps in a year or two, she would really hear Di Yun’s name spreading through the Jianghu.

"Save the little Heart-Cabbage, I can pay the reward."

Qi Fang’s eyes were firm; for her, who had already broken with Wan Gui and didn't want to drag Di Yun down, her daughter was the most important thing now.

Gu Gu Hanyuan smiled playfully:

"Is this reward a one-time thing or long-term?"

Obviously, now was the best time to bargain.

Qi Fang originally wanted to say it was just a one-time thing, but looking at Gu Gu Hanyuan’s eyes, she knew such a bargaining chip was not enough.

But she couldn't bring herself to agree to it.

"I understand what my lady means."

Gu Gu Hanyuan was very understanding; anyway, Qi Fang couldn't resist.

"Let's collect some interest first, so as not to waste too much time and delay saving the little Heart-Cabbage."

Qi Fang looked at Gu Gu Hanyuan with a puzzled expression.

It wasn't until Gu Gu Hanyuan placed his hand on her head that she realized.

"Brother Wutian, you bastard!"

"My lady, you haven't done anything similar for Wan Gui, have you? Experience it here with me."

"Hmm."

After collecting the interest, Gu Gu Hanyuan went to find the little Heart-Cabbage.

Although he didn't put a tracker on the little Heart-Cabbage, it was actually not hard to find.

A baby must be taken care of by someone, and this caregiver must also be someone who had just given birth.

Just asking around would reveal who met the conditions, and after screening them one by one, he locked onto the target.

Sure enough, Gu Gu Hanyuan saw the little Heart-Cabbage sleeping soundly in a civilian house.

He picked her up gently and returned to the Wan Mansion to see Qi Fang.

After washing up, Qi Fang was pleasantly surprised to see the little Heart-Cabbage, and couldn't bother to complain about Gu Gu Hanyuan being too rough at the end.

"Let's go, I'll take you away from Jiangling."

Qi Fang had wanted to leave here anyway, so naturally she wouldn't object.

Gu Gu Hanyuan took Qi Fang, who was holding the little Heart-Cabbage, and left without alerting the people in the Wan Mansion.
