"Miss Bai has someone she likes?"
"Didn't she like Prince Ding Xuanyuan Che before?"
"It's been so long, why is Miss Bai still in love with Prince Ding? It's definitely not Prince Ding."
"But...she was madly in love with Prince Ding before. Everyone in the imperial city knew that she loved Prince Ding. A few days ago at the Jiutian Auction House, Prince Ding seemed to have changed his mind and wanted to please Miss Bai."
"However, she's gone too far. It was fine that she disregarded the etiquette of a woman's family for Prince Ding before, but now this has completely disgraced the entire Bai family, making them bear the reputation of being treacherous.
-It is unfortunate for the Bai family to have such a young lady. "
She herself had repeatedly said that she would spend the Chinese Valentine's Day with whoever gave her the Phoenix Sword; this Mr. Gu had spent hundreds of ninth-grade spirit stones to give her the Phoenix Sword, but she broke his promise.
If this gets out, it will only bring shame to the entire Bai family.
The surrounding voices pointed and pointed, but the woman didn't care at all. Her eyes fell on Gu Yunzhou, and a pleading look appeared on her beautiful face. "Mr. Gu, I know you have feelings for me, but... I'm really sorry. I really can't go against my own will and spend time with you.
——If you really like me, you probably don't want to see me suffer, so can you help me? "
"I will help you?"
Finally, Gu Yunzhou spoke, his words indifferent and without any ups and downs, "Who is the person you like?"
"I…"
The woman's cheeks flushed slightly, and after a while she said, "It's Prince Ding Xuanyuan Che."
"I said, she still likes Prince Ding."
"I still remember Miss Bai going crazy for Prince Ding, going crazy for Prince Ding, and hammering the wall for him."
"Yes, I remember that Miss Bai said she would marry Prince Ding in this life. She would be willing to stay by his side even as a concubine."
"For the sake of Prince Ding, she, the eldest daughter of the Bai family, is willing to be a concubine. This shows that she likes Prince Ding very much. How can she just say she doesn't like him after liking him for so long?" The people were discussing.
"Yan Yan, I know that you still like me and still have feelings for me."
Xuanyuan Che, wearing a dark-colored robe and holding a red lantern, walked over through the crowd.
Xuanyuan Che still had wounds on his body and face, but at this moment he dragged his injured body to the woman and even extended his hand to invite her, "Yan Yan, are you willing to spend Qixi Festival with me?"
"I…"
When the woman saw Xuanyuan Che appear, a look of embarrassment appeared on her face.
"Yan Yan, I know I've done a lot of things that have hurt you, but I know I was wrong and I will change. And... I swear to you today that I only love you, and you are my only imperial concubine."
Xuanyuan Che's face was full of affection, and both his words and expressions showed great affection.
Many people were moved by what they saw.
This is Prince Ding. He is of noble status. The fact that he can make such a promise to Miss Bai shows that he really likes her.
"I…"
The woman was obviously convinced. She stretched out her hand, but before she could put it in Xuanyuan Che's, she withdrew it and looked at Gu Yunzhou beside her with an apologetic look, "Mr. Gu, can you help me?"
Everyone's eyes fell on Gu Yunzhou.
The man just stood there straight.
There was no expression on that handsome face, but his beautiful eyes were slightly closed, with a hint of frost in them.
"Are you the boy from the Gu family who bought the Phoenix Sword for Yanyan?"
Xuanyuan Che reached out and grasped the woman's hand, then protected her. His eyes fell on Gu Yunzhou, and after sizing him up, he said, "Yanyan is so good. I know you like her, but she already has me in her heart. I hope you'll be more sensible and stop pestering her."
Gu Yunzhou didn't say anything, his eyes fell on the two people's tightly held hands.
"Prince Ding, please don't say that. Master Gu has been very kind to me."
The woman struggled, trying to remove her hand from Xuanyuan Che's, but Xuanyuan Che held it tighter. "Yanyan, I know you are kind-hearted and can't bear to see him get hurt, but he is not in your heart. Even if you force yourself to be with him, you will be unhappy. Why hurt yourself like this?"
"I…"
Xuanyuan Che interrupted her and said to Gu Yunzhou, "If you are still a man, if you still like her, then please don't pester her, and don't make things difficult for her."
"good--"
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Yunzhou finally spoke.
It was just one word, but it was clearly heard by everyone present.
"Sir, don't be sad. Now that Miss Bai is gone, you can consider me." A woman in the crowd raised her hand. "Although I'm not as pretty as Miss Bai, I'm not bad either."
"I, I, I, I can do it too!"
Gu Yunzhou completely ignored the voices of those people. His cold eyes fell on the two of them, and finally landed on the beautiful face of the woman. He then slowly said, "I will grant your wish, but——"
But...? What?
Everyone immediately looked up.
The people who were cracking melon seeds stopped and looked at Gu Yunzhou intently, afraid that they would miss any good show.
but?
The woman frowned, "Mr. Gu, I know you like me, and I also know that doing this will only hurt you, but I really don't have you in my heart. What I like is..."
"It's none of my business who you like, but I'm not happy—"
As Gu Yunzhou spoke, a chill emanated from his body, affecting everyone within a ten-mile radius.
They only felt that the air around them was sucked out, and the temperature around them dropped instantly, as if they were in an ice cellar. They were so cold that they couldn't even shiver because... their bodies could not move.
A sense of fear spread from the bottom of my heart.
They were so frightened that they couldn't even faint, and could only stare at the handsome and evil man in red with horror on their faces.
A layer of frost covered the man's eyes. He slowly raised his hand, but as he raised his hand, a hint of purple emanated from his palm. In just a moment, the woman and Xuanyuan Che were knocked away by him.
Then he slowly said, "I am not happy that you are impersonating Miss Bai and even defaming her reputation."
