Chapter 496 Deliberately Touching on Her Ex-Husband's Sore Spots

Gu Hanxin walked towards her without making a sound.

The woman wasn't tall enough; she only reached his shoulder.

He looked down and saw the woman sniffle, her eyes a little red.

It seems this woman and the sect leader do have a very good relationship...?

Is it really that bad for a woman to have a good relationship with the sect leader?

Yan Ruyu noticed someone suddenly appear beside her and swallowed her reluctance, giving him a fierce glare.

Then, he said fiercely, "What are you looking at?"

After saying this with dissatisfaction, she immediately strode away.

Gu Hanxin, who had originally intended to offer her some words of comfort, was speechless.

He's really... inexplicable.

He just wanted to say a few words of comfort to her, but in the end this woman didn't appreciate it and didn't know how kind he was.

Yan Ruyu thought that they still had some time, as they would not set off back to the mountain until tomorrow, so she took advantage of the quiet time to stroll around the streets.

I never imagined I would be able to walk freely on the street and enjoy the scenery so much.

The streets were bustling with activity.

In addition, she was dressed simply, in a Taoist robe, so she didn't stand out much.

Those glamorous jewelry stores, fabric shops, cosmetic shops, and so on, had nothing to do with her.

The shopkeeper would never call out to her when he saw her, and sometimes he would even look down on her and give her a big eye roll, as if she was blocking his business.

Yan Ruyu didn't seem to care much.

There are plenty of people like that.

Back when she was the daughter of the richest man in Jiangnan, she could walk around the streets with an air of superiority.

Things are different now.

A horse-drawn carriage sped past.

If she hadn't dodged in time, she probably would have been hit.

The carriage driver immediately spat and cursed, "Are you looking for death? Don't you have eyes?"

After he finished cursing, the servant suddenly stopped.

The servant stared at Yan Ruyu in astonishment, "You...the Princess?"

However, the servant soon realized that this was no longer the princess.

He secretly patted his face.

The man inside the carriage had obviously heard it too, and he lifted the curtain.

I never expected to see Yan Ruyu.

I haven't seen this woman in a long time.

I embarrassed him on the street last time during the Lantern Festival, and now I've seen him on the street again.

Not only that, this woman was dressed simply, and even wore a gray Taoist robe. Could it be...?

Di Huai coldly looked Yan Ruyu up and down, then let out a mocking laugh, his whole face filled with a sarcastic smile, disdainful and mocking.

He nodded. "Yan Ruyu, have you suddenly come to a realization and decided to become a Taoist nun?"

That's hilarious.

He utterly despised Yan Ruyu.

That was true before, and it is true now.

Especially since Yan Ruyu was dressed so simply at this moment, with no makeup on her face, her fair and delicate face looked incredibly pure and pretty.

He really wondered how he could have had such poor judgment back then, falling for such a low-class woman.

The more he looked at it, the more disgusted he became, and he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

Yan Ruyu saw his expression and sneered, "My affairs are none of your concern, ex-husband. After all, I can do whatever I want, and I don't care about you. You've done too many bad things, Your Highness, that you can't even protect your own concubine's child."

Di Huai Leng, who was initially quite happy to see Yan Ruyu in such a disheveled state, never expected that this woman would deliberately touch a sore spot for him.

His eyes turned cold.

"What did you say?"

"What, did I say something wrong?"

"Yan Ruyu, you're asking for death!" Di Huai gritted his teeth and ordered the guards, "Grab her and slap her! She deserves to die!"

Yan Ruyu was not afraid at all. She was quite reserved in Shensuan Mountain, and she had nowhere to vent her anger. Now, facing the guards surrounding her, she was ready to fight.

"Come on, are you afraid of me?"

Gu Hanxin, who was just leaving Zuiyue Tower, was taking two disciples to buy some items for their ascent up the mountain the next day.

Unexpectedly...

Xiao Liu pointed ahead, "Isn't that Junior Sister Yan? She's fighting with someone?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Hanxin suddenly looked up and indeed saw Yan Ruyu fiercely knocking down all the guards who had surrounded her.

Each time he was knocked to the ground, he exuded a surprising arrogance.

His skills were astonishing.

Xiao Qi sighed, "My God, I had no idea that Junior Sister Yan was actually a martial arts expert with such impressive skills!"

Gu Hanxin glanced at him.

Is this something to be praised?

Speechless.

Yan Ruyu quickly knocked all the guards to the ground and looked at Di Huai Leng in the carriage. "Is this all the Prince is capable of? You just call the guards to slap people for no reason. Are you bullying the common people?"

The air inside the carriage was so cold it made me want to vomit blood.

"You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to drink the penalty cup! If you had knelt down and apologized to me properly, I wouldn't have bothered with you, you Taoist nun. But now, you dare to go against me?"

He made a move to stand up and strike Yan Ruyu with his palm...

At this moment, Yan Ruyu was suddenly pulled away by a strong force.

Gu Hanxin and Di Huai Leng faced each other palm to palm, and Gu Hanxin took the blow head-on.

After all, Di Huai Leng was stationed in Jiangnan and his martial prowess was considerable.

Even if he's not the best, he's still a martial artist who has undergone high-pressure training since childhood.

Gu Hanxin's sudden appearance shocked Yan Ruyu.

"you……"

What are you doing running out here?

Yan Ruyu really wanted to ask him.

This kind of scene could be played by any senior brother, but it's Gu Hanxin who makes the scene feel particularly awkward and out of place.

Di Huai coldly glanced at Gu Hanxin.
