Zhu Jiayu smiled at her and said, "Princess, you don't have to reveal all your cards. If you don't say you don't have any, others might guess that you have even bigger cards up your sleeve."
"Furthermore, a boat can travel on water and use the momentum of the water and wind to move faster than thunder. The same applies to people in the world. You are a princess. Is there any power in the world that you cannot use? What is there to fear from the mere Wei Qing Tower?"
Gu Jinshu's eyes suddenly lit up. Zhu Jiayu's words resonated in her heart, initially like crashing waves, but later seemed to carry the force of a thunderbolt, shaking the world to its core!
She looked at Zhu Jiayu seriously. This was the first time she had looked at the woman in front of her so intently. In the past, she had only thought that Zhu Jiayu was beautiful and charming, but now she felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
With such outstanding wisdom and extraordinary courage, how could Wei Qinglou not love her?
If she were a man, I'm afraid she too would be tempted.
"Aren't you afraid when you tell me all this..." she asked again after calming down.
Zhu Jiayu blinked: "Aren't you afraid you'll go after him? Aren't you afraid he'll find out and get angry with me?"
Gu Jinshu nodded.
Zhu Jiayu noticed that her fingers, exposed outside her sleeve, were red with cold, so he handed her the hot water bottle from his arms and said, "If he were truly a fickle and despicable person, why would I have taken a liking to him? The reason I'm telling you all this is because I'm certain he will help you. Since he's willing to help you, you don't need to follow my advice and fight him to the death, right? As for getting angry..."
She thought for a moment, then said mischievously, "If he dares to be angry with me, I'll be angry with him too, and we'll see who can out-anger whom!"
Gu Jinshu was amused by her words, but after a while, she stopped laughing and said to her seriously, "I have made many mistakes in the past, and now that I think about it, I am very sorry to you. Today I will apologize to you here."
As she was about to get up, Zhu Jiayu quickly stopped her, saying, "I haven't thanked you yet, why are you apologizing to me first? How about this, let's wipe the slate clean today. If you don't mind and are willing to consider me a friend, you are welcome to visit my home often."
Gu Jinshu bit her tongue lightly, forcing back her tears, and solemnly nodded, saying "okay".
Looking up again, she saw someone not far away carrying a red paper umbrella, walking towards her through the wind and snow.
