Inside the Prince's Mansion, Zu An saw the string of anger points on the backstage and couldn't help but chuckle. This girl seemed a bit slow on the uptake; it took her so long to realize.
However, if one were truly intelligent, one wouldn't be so foolish as to venture alone into the Prince of Yan's mansion to find clues about Mr. Huo.
"Did something happy happen to you? You're laughing so happily." A clear, cool voice sounded from behind. Chu Chuyan stood under the plum blossoms, her skirt fluttering, her figure graceful and charming.
Even though they are already husband and wife, he is still amazed every time he sees her. Zuan's smile became even brighter: "Of course I'm happy to reunite with you here."
"Us?" Chu Chuyan looked suspicious.
Zu An's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly replied, "Back then, I fought alongside Master Yan in the Demon Clan's royal court, so we can be considered friends. Of course, I'm happy to see her."
Chu Chuyan was relieved, but immediately said worriedly, "Grandpa, I know your personality, but you must never have any improper thoughts about Master. Master has never shown any interest in men for so many years. If she finds out, she will definitely give you a sword, so that you will never be able to do evil in your next life."
Zuan looked at him strangely, thinking to himself, "Your master didn't give me a sword strike, but I gave her a spear strike instead..."
“I don’t think Abbot Yan is that cold-hearted. For example, Guan Chouhai from Lihentian seems to have been fawning over her all along, and she doesn’t seem to dislike him,” Zu An asked, seizing the opportunity to inquire.
"You have the nerve to say that? I was so worried about you when you offended Lihentian. I was afraid that Master Guan would take action against you, and I was even thinking about how to ask Master for your help." Chu Chuyan still felt lingering fear when she thought about what happened at the banquet.
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of anyone surnamed Guan," Zu An said, holding her hand. It felt cool, soft, and extremely comfortable. "Besides, your master and I are comrades-in-arms, she won't just stand by and do nothing."
"So that's what you were planning. I was so worried about you." Chu Chuyan said coquettishly. If anyone else were here, they would definitely be shocked. After all, she was usually cold and aloof to everyone, and no one had ever seen her so adorable.
"You haven't told me about Guan Chouhai and your master yet," Zu An asked with a gossipy look.
"What else could it be? It's just that Sect Leader Guan has been pursuing Master all along," Chu Chuyan said excitedly as she talked about gossip. "Back then, Sect Leader Guan was incredibly talented. When she was just a teenager, she was already designated as the next leader of Lihentian Sect and even had the chance to become the number one among the nine sects of Taoism. At the same time, she was also handsome and refined. Not only Lihentian Sect, but countless girls from other sects were infatuated with her. There was even a scandal where someone threw himself at her in the middle of the night and was rejected."
"However, when Master Guan met his master at the Nine Sects Conference of Taoism, he fell in love at first sight and vowed to marry no one but her. Over the years, he visited Baiyujing countless times. In order to please his master, he even served tea and water in Baiyujing and built good relationships with everyone around his master. At that time, some people jokingly said that Lihentian had helped Baiyujing cultivate a good disciple."
"What happens next?" Zu'an became nervous. With such devotion and charm, there were probably few women in the world who could resist him.
“There was no later,” Chu Chuyan shook her head. “Master didn’t like him. At first, he tried to persuade him, but the other party not only ignored him but also became more and more persistent. So Master simply stopped paying attention to him. Now I’m starting to suspect that Master’s cold personality and indifference to any man might have been triggered by this incident.”
Zuan was taken aback, thinking that it might actually be true.
Just then, a soft cough from the side startled the two of them. Turning around, they saw Yan Xuehen with a hint of anger in her eyes.
