Chapter 545 Even more unruly things have been done

"You!! You dare say I'm not worthy?! I'll tear your mouth apart!"

Shen Mingxuan was trembling with anger. She wanted to go forward and hit someone, but was stopped by Madam Qi.

"What are you doing? If you hit your own sister here, your reputation will be completely ruined! Not only will the Prince Ning's mansion not want you, but ordinary families won't want you either! Behave yourself, whatever it is, we'll talk about it at home!"

"Hmph, go home? I don't think we should have let her go home at all! Prince Xiao only said a few more words to her, and look how arrogant she has become! She doesn't even know who she is anymore!"

Shen Mingxuan said coldly, and followed Madam Qi out of the palace gate.

The mother and daughter boarded the carriage first, then Shen Mingxuan blocked the door, not allowing Shen Wantang to get on: "Aren't you very capable? Then let Prince Xiao send you back to the Shen residence, don't ride in our carriage!"

After she finished speaking, she ordered the coachman to drive on. Seeing that Shen Wantang and her stupid maid were left behind, she smiled with satisfaction: "Hmph, serves you right for being so arrogant! Let's see how you get back to the manor!"

Shen Wantang stood there quietly, neither chasing after the carriage nor retaliating against Shen Mingxuan's mockery, as if she were in a daze.

Du Juan watched the carriage drive away, both angry and anxious: "How could the young lady bully people like this? It's really too much!"

"Miss, what are we going to do now? How are we going to get back to the manor? It's such a long way to walk back!"

"Miss, why don't you just bear with it next time? A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle!"

Shen Wantang turned her head and smiled gently at her: "Why should I endure it? If I endure it, how will Shen Mingxuan have an excuse to abandon me?"

Du Juan was taken aback: "Huh? Could it be that you deliberately provoked Miss just now?"

Shen Wantang lifted her foot and walked forward: "That's right!"

Why?

"Because I don't want to go back to the Shen residence for the time being, I want to see someone."

"Whom do you wish to see? Is it to see Young Master Biao?"

"It wasn't him."

Shen Wantang shook her head and pulled the hairpin out of her hair: "Let's pawn it for silver. We need to hire a carriage; it'll be too conspicuous to walk there."

Dujuan took the hairpin, her face full of surprise: "Miss, this is a new hairpin that Madam made for the eldest young lady. It's only temporarily lent to you today. If you pawn it, Madam and the eldest young lady might... might eat you alive!"

"Don't be afraid, I'll get my father's support later."

"This... will Master protect you? In the past, no matter what disputes you and Miss had, Master always sided with Miss."

"From today onwards, it won't happen again."

"Why?"

"Because only through my help can he be reinstated to his original position."

Du Juan seemed to understand but not quite, and followed Shen Wantang forward, intending to find a pawnshop on another street.

But they hadn't gone far when a luxurious carriage stopped in front of them.

A tall, handsome, and aloof man stepped down from the carriage.

As soon as Dujuan saw him, she exclaimed, "Miss, it's him again!"

Shen Wantang was also a little surprised to see Gu Qianhan: "How did you know I was here?"

Gu Qianhan's expression wasn't too good: "Xiao Qingyuan is unreliable, stay away from him."

When he left the Shen family early in the morning, he specifically told her to wait for him. But no sooner had he left than she went to the Prince Ning's residence.

It was fortunate that he had placed spies in the Ning Prince's mansion; otherwise, he wouldn't have known that she was once again moving closer to marrying Xiao Qingyuan.

Shen Wantang sighed slightly, "I just came to watch the fun, that's all."

Gu Qianhan breathed a sigh of relief; he was afraid she would still choose Xiao Qingyuan.

He said softly, "Get in the car, I'll take you to see someone."

Shen Wantang had a vague idea of ​​who he was going to take her to see, and without hesitation, she got into the carriage with Dujuan.

Then, Gu Qianhan also got into the carriage.

The carriage was originally spacious, but because he was tall and had long legs, it suddenly felt cramped after he got in.

Du Juan felt very uncomfortable. She didn't dare to look at Gu Qianhan and huddled in the corner, burying her head almost in her neck—she should have known better than to get on the bus!

Not to mention Du Juan, even Shen Wantang wasn't quite used to it, because Gu Qianhan not only sat down next to her, but also took her hand and held it in his palm.

After a while, he came over and put his arm around her waist again.

Shen Wantang was really struggling to cope, and she couldn't help but push him away: "Don't go too far, can you follow the rules?"

Gu Qianhan looked down at her: "I've done even more unruly things, but I'm very restrained now."

As he spoke, his gaze fell upon her lips.

Shen Wantang turned her face away from his intense gaze, but even with her face turned away, she could still feel his intense gaze.

Her heartbeat became erratic, her cheeks began to burn, and even her palms started to sweat.

She had no choice but to reach out and press his face down, turning his head to the other side.

Gu Qianhan chuckled: "Are you rewarding me?"

"Shut up, don't say anything."

"Unless I die, I will keep talking to you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Wantang covered his mouth.

Even though he could be reborn, Shen Wantang still couldn't bear to hear him say that word: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Because the pain and despair that death brings are real and indelible.

She didn't know if she would ever be reborn again. Every time she was reborn, she lived it as if it were her last.

How could Gu Qianhan not understand her pain? He died in front of her twice, leaving her alone to clean up the mess both times. Anyone with a slightly weaker mental fortitude would have already collapsed.

He kissed her fingers and couldn't help but pull her into his arms and hug her tightly: "I'll listen to you, I won't say anything more."

Shen Wantang didn't struggle when he held her. The image of his tragic death in her previous life was imprinted deep in her soul. Now that he was still alive, she didn't say it, but she cherished him even more in her heart.

She thought he probably felt the same way.

She leaned against his chest, listening to his rapid heartbeat, and felt very safe.

"Gu Qianhan".

"Um."

Where are we going?

Gu Qianhan loved hearing her say "we," and he laughed: "You dare to get on my carriage without even knowing where you're going? Aren't you afraid I'll sell you off?"

"Oh, so he's trying to sell me! Dujuan, this person is a human trafficker. Let's get off the bus, we're not going to stay!"

As Shen Wantang spoke, she made a move to get up.

Gu Qianhan hurriedly pressed her back down: "Ancestor, would I sell you? I'd sell myself, but I wouldn't sell you. Sit still and don't move. Jixiang, hurry up with the carriage!"

A loud and clear reply came from outside: "Yes, young master!"

Du Juan's worldview had completely collapsed in the corner. She could only silently chant in her heart, "I can't hear, I can't hear, I can't see, I can't see, I can't see! Miss is right no matter what she does! If I think Miss is wrong, then it must be my feeling that's wrong!"
