Chapter 907

But he asked calmly on the surface:

"May I ask for the young lady's name?"

Zhen Sushan beamed upon hearing this.

She covered her mouth with her slender jade hand,

and smiled coquettishly:

"This concubine's surname is Zhen; I am no longer a young lady."

Zhen Sushan had been running around for Khwarezm for many years,

and before she knew it, she was already approaching thirty.

Others addressed her as "Madam Zhen."

Age had always been a woman's greatest enemy,

so she was naturally in a great mood when she saw Gu Hanyuan address her as a young lady.

She and Fang Yeyu only had a marriage contract;

in reality, she had always been single.

Gu Hanyuan sighed with feigned regret:

"What a pity."

Zhen Sushan asked curiously:

"What is Young Master Gu regretting?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled lightly:

"It is a pity that I could not see Miss Zhen's true face."

Seeing Zhen Sushan take the initiative to strike up a conversation,

Gu Hanyuan knew she intended to test him,

and might even be planning to use a beauty trap.

Naturally, he had to cooperate with her fully.

Sure enough,

seeing that Gu Hanyuan was interested in her,

Zhen Sushan blinked her beautiful, sparkling autumn eyes,

and said with deep meaning:

"There will be a chance."

Gu Hanyuan's reputation as a playboy was known throughout the Jianghu.

Zhen Sushan was confident that with her beauty,

Gu Hanyuan would definitely take the bait.

She was just slightly surprised that it was so smooth,

and inevitably felt a little less vigilant.

Seeing Shangguan Haitang walk straight toward them,

she bowed gracefully and said:

"Young Master Shangguan seems to be looking for Young Master Gu, so this concubine will take her leave first."

Gu Hanyuan smiled:

"Take your time, Miss Zhen."

Gu Hanyuan looked at Zhen Sushan's back,

her slender, soft waist swaying in an alluring arc as if on purpose.

A playful glint flashed in Gu Hanyuan's eyes.

His favorite thing was the beauty trap.

Shangguan Haitang asked with annoyance:

"Is she pretty?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled calmly:

"She is quite pretty."

Shangguan Haitang had originally asked this somewhat sour question because she felt inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart.

She hadn't expected Gu Hanyuan to admit it so easily.

For a moment, she was speechless,

not knowing whether to despise Gu Hanyuan for being lecherous,

or to admire his honesty.

However, Shangguan Haitang ultimately had no standing to lecture Gu Hanyuan,

so she had to change the subject:

"What were you two talking about just now?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled lightly:

"We hadn't talked for long before you came, Brother Shangguan."

Shangguan Haitang froze,

and asked again:

"Then who is she?"

Her instinct as a secret agent made her always want to gather as much information as possible.

Zhen Sushan, who did not reveal her true face, was naturally one of her targets.

Gu Hanyuan didn't hide it either,

and said bluntly:

"She said her surname is Zhen."

Shangguan Haitang was shocked upon hearing this:

"Zhen? Could it be Madam Zhen of Khwarezm?"

Although Zhen Sushan was not famous in the Central Plains,

she was extremely famous in foreign lands.

It was said that the reason the exiled regime of Khwarezm could hold on until now

was all thanks to Zhen Sushan.

The Huolong Villa also had information on Zhen Sushan.

It was said that she was extremely beautiful,

and her martial arts and intelligence were extraordinary,

and she was even quite ruthless.

Gu Hanyuan knew Zhen Sushan's background better than Shangguan Haitang,

but there was no need to explain it to her.

He said indifferently:

"It should be."

Shangguan Haitang said with sudden realization:

"No wonder she is so beautiful even while wearing a veil. It is said that this Madam Zhen is the number one beauty of Khwarezm."

Anyone who could be called the number one beauty of a country was bound to be stunningly beautiful.

That was why Li Qinglu was so famous;

it was precisely because she was called the number one beauty of Xixia.

Gu Hanyuan's face became solemn,

and he agreed extremely:

"That evaluation also has some truth to it."

Shangguan Haitang said with annoyance:

"Then it seems I have disturbed Brother Gu."

Shangguan Haitang said crossly:

"Then it seems I have disturbed Brother Gu."
