Li Shushu was not surprised by Gu Jingheng's straightforward answer.
Based on the little she knew about him in her previous life, she knew that he was a man of principles and bottom lines, a true gentleman.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, he in front of her suddenly lost his principles.
She really wanted to throw these two beasts who almost killed her into the well.
But she could have sent him away first and then done it herself.
She told him this on purpose, in fact, to stimulate him and make him see her "true face": maybe she was not as kind as he thought, but a pure and innocent little white flower.
She wanted to scare him away.
However, it seems that the ideal effect has not been achieved so far.
"Well," since he agreed so readily, she was happy to have an extra assistant, "then let's get started now."
The two men threw the two eunuchs, who were still screaming, into the deep well one after another.
There were only two muffled sounds of "plop" and "plop". At the beginning, there was also some sound of splashing water and the sound of struggling.
Soon, there was little sound in the deep well.
There weren't many waves.
After finishing all this, Gu Jingheng put his hands on Li Shushu's shoulders and said, "Shushu, will you come with me now?
I will ask my brother and mother for instructions tomorrow, and I will definitely not let you down."
After hearing him speak so innocently over and over again, it would be a lie for Li Shushu to say that she was not moved.
Unfortunately, she couldn't go with him.
Being moved cannot avenge her, nor can it protect the people she wants to protect.
Now is not the time to be sentimental.
After living a new life, she became mature and calm, but at the same time, her heart also grew colder.
She gently pushed away his hand on her shoulder and shook her head without hesitation: "No, I can't go with you."
"Why?" Gu Jingheng couldn't understand.
"First of all, the two people who fell into the well today will be discovered tomorrow or in a few days. If I leave now, everyone will definitely blame me, so I can't leave now." Li Shushu analyzed to him calmly.
Gu Jingheng nodded, agreeing deeply.
It was Shushu who was thoughtful and considerate. He was just anxious and neglected it.
Li Shushu continued, "Secondly, I would like to thank the Seventh Prince for his kindness to me. I know that I am not worthy of you. I have no way to repay you for saving my life. I can only repay you in the next life..." As she said the most heartless words, a mist appeared in her eyes uncontrollably.
She tried her best to hold it back, but she couldn't!
Maybe it was the effect of the tear-jerking talisman, Li Shushu comforted himself.
"Slave girl, slave girl! Shushu, why have you become so humble and cautious in front of me? You were not like this before!
What afterlife? I don't want one, I can't wait, I want this life, I want life after life, do you understand?"
Gu Jingheng was a little anxious, his eyes also turned red. He took a step forward, wanting to hug her again.
After several months, he finally found her in the Xinzheku in the deep palace. He didn't dare and didn't want to let her out of his sight again.
Li Shushu thought: Isn't it different? In the past, although she was of low status, she could occasionally let herself go in front of people she trusted, except for pretending to be stupid in front of outsiders.
At that time, she still had hope.
At that time, she and her mother had secretly planned countless times that when she came of age and had a stable life, they would find a reliable, simple man with a clean family background to marry, and take her mother with them, away from the right and wrong of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
But now, too many things have happened that he doesn't know about. Between them, there is even a life and death barrier...
She struggled to break free from his restraints, took two steps back, bit her lip, and thought that she might have to use harsher words to scare him away.
She cleared her throat, as if she had made up her mind, "Your Highness, I know you mean well, but..." She choked up, and the next words were indeed a bit cruel, but she had to say, "But I am no longer a virgin, and I don't deserve Your Highness to treat me so sincerely!"
"What?" Gu Jingheng took a step back. This news was like a thunderbolt to him.
In their time, a woman's chastity was so important that I believe no man would remain indifferent upon hearing this.
But he didn't remain stunned for long. Instead, he quickly moved closer to Li Shushu and comforted her gently, "Shushu, it's okay. I don't care. What I like is you, the person you are. As long as you also have me in your heart, those are not obstacles, okay?"
Li Shushu did not appreciate it, but just silently shed tears and shook her head.
Seeing this scene, his pity grew even stronger. "Or, or you can tell me, who bullied you? I'll help you get revenge, okay? I'll help you kill the person who bullied you, okay?"
Li Shushu's tears flowed even more violently, "No, it's useless, Your Majesty, you can't kill that man..."
Gu Jingheng obviously didn't believe it: "There is someone in this world that I, Gu Jingheng, can't kill. I don't believe it! Could he be the Emperor, the Emperor himself?..."
"Emperor?" He saw that Li Shushu seemed even more excited, his eyes widened and he looked at her in disbelief.
How could it be possible? He was his most respected brother, the Supreme Ruler of the World?
Was it his own brother, who had the same father and mother, who took away the virginity of the person he loved most?
It felt like my heart was being stabbed violently by a blunt knife, and the dull pain quickly spread to my internal organs.
Li Shushu didn't know what she was feeling at the moment. Originally, she told this matter in order to force Gu Jingheng to back down, but seeing his uncomfortable expression, a trace of pity flashed through her heart.
