Chapter Thirty-One: Slap in the Face
Beauty can be a trap.
Gu Yanjing looked away uncomfortably: "Give me the Ice Soul Pearl."
Lu Lingjun, however, was unwilling to let him off the hook: "Your Majesty, the Ice Soul Pearl is nowhere near as cool as me. I can keep Your Majesty cool inside and out."
Lu Lingjun sat at the table, her fingertips touching her lips, as if asking Gu Yanjing a question through her fingertips. She was dressed very conservatively, but her smile was like that of a fairy.
It gives you the urge to pull open that tightly closed collar.
Gu Yanjing fell silent: ...Who could withstand this?
Seeing Gu Yan's surprised expression, Lu Lingjun pressed his advantage: "Your Majesty, I am better than the Ice Soul Pearl."
Gu Yan was shocked: ...I can't take it, I can't take it.
Since I can't bear it, I can only follow my heart.
Gu Yan was thus proven wrong.
It made a snapping sound.
When Gu Congxin returned from Qingping Palace and saw the familiar barrier, the joy in her heart immediately froze.
Oh.
man.
As the sun set, Gu Yanjing clutched his lower back, realizing he was probably getting on in years.
"Does Your Majesty's back hurt?" Lu Lingjun put on a robe and looked at Gu Yanjing's back.
Gu Yan was shocked: "...It doesn't hurt, shut up." After saying that, he walked out.
Will he admit it?
Impossible, how could he admit it?
He must have been out of his mind to let that dead bird Lu Lingjun in.
"Your Majesty, the Ice Soul Pearl." Lu Lingjun sat on the bed without moving and called out to Gu Yanjing, who was fleeing in panic.
Gu Yanjing ignored him and simply slipped away.
Is the Ice Soul Pearl more important than the waist?
He will never make the same mistake twice.
He left the bedchamber and broke through the barrier set up by Lu Lingjun. He saw a lone Xuanfeng sitting on the steps outside.
It is Gu Congxin.
"Your Majesty, you're finally out! Were you bullied? I've been waiting so anxiously! Let me see, are you hurt? Where does it hurt?"
Gu Congxin turned around and saw Gu Yanjing with a dark face. She immediately switched to fake crying mode, doing it with practiced ease.
However, each bite was like a knife driven into Gu Yanjing's heart.
Gu Yan was surprised: ......
Did he tell the system that he was bullied, and that he was bullied for an entire afternoon?
Will he tell the system that he is not injured, but his back hurts?
No, so he not only didn't say anything, but also kicked Gu Congxin out.
However, the kick was too big, and he accidentally twisted his already precarious back.
Gu Yanjing clutched his aching back and couldn't help but hiss.
It hurts.
Lu Lingjun, who had rushed out, couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Gu Yanjing clutching his back. He took a few steps forward and asked, "Your Majesty, did you twist your back?"
After saying that, he helped Gu Yanjing support her waist.
Gu Yanjing couldn't help but tremble, and gritted her teeth to push him away: "Shut up and let me go."
Lu Lingjun laughed when he saw Gu Yan's surprised expression.
Gu Yan's face darkened considerably: "Get out."
Lu Lingjun not only didn't roll away, but also carried Gu Yanjing into the bedchamber: "Where does Your Majesty want me to roll to? To roll into Your Majesty's arms?"
Gu Yan was shocked: "Have you been possessed? Why do I feel like you're a completely different person?" (A bit suggestive.)
Lu Lingjun lowered his head and kissed Gu Yanjing's forehead: "Does Your Majesty not like me like this?"
Gu Yanjing: ...If you don't like it, you've probably lost all sense of shame.
Gu Yan was surprised: "Hehe."
Under the corridor outside the hall, Nan Wan'er watched as Lu Lingjun carried Gu Yanjing inside, her face growing paler and paler.
"Your Majesty, shall we go back?" the palace servant behind her asked quite naturally.
Nan Wan'er stood still.
She had just arrived at Qingping Palace when she saw a madman with a burned face who nearly strangled her.
Having finally escaped, her first thought was to see Gu Yanjing, as if seeing him would put her mind at ease.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yanjing was carried inside by another man.
How ironic.
She could almost see the man holding Gu Yanjing smiling at her, with a look of utter contempt.
"Who is that?" she asked the palace maid beside her.
A female official stepped forward and said, without looking to the side, with a calm expression: "Your Majesty the Empress, that is Prime Minister Lu from the previous dynasty."
Nan Wan'er remembered.
That person was the one who castrated Duan Xingyue; he was the only person who could get close to Gu Yanjing a long time ago.
So, this is what their relationship is like?
