The long whip, which could be stretched and retracted freely, was swung high up, like lightning and a dragon, making a crisp sound like firecrackers in the air.
"Ahhh!"
Fang Mingfeng's face changed drastically. He stretched out his long arm and quickly held Gu Yunmeng in his arms.
The whip hit him hard on the back.
A burning pain came from his back, and Fang Mingfeng's handsome face twisted slightly, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.
"Mingfeng!" Gu Yunmeng pushed Fang Mingfeng away and checked his injuries worriedly. His tentacles were covered in bright red blood.
Fang Mingfeng stared deeply at Gu Yunyan's little face. In his dark pupils, there were extremely complex emotions, including attachment, confusion, sadness, and longing...
Between him and King Kang, she chose King Kang.
That day, he made up his mind and gave up on her from then on.
Why did she still come to provoke him? Her behavior would only make him unable to let go...
Fang Mingfeng looked at Gu Yunmeng steadily, his thin lips tightly pursed. His eyes were tender, yet mixed with deep fatigue and sorrow.
"Gu Yanfei," Gu Yunyan's usually smiling face showed a rare look of anger, and he frowned tightly, scolding righteously, "You and Mingfeng have already broken off the engagement, why are you still unwilling to let him go?!"
Gu Yun'er looked at Gu Yanfei with eyes filled with disapproval.
"Are you blind?" Gu Yanfei raised his eyebrows and shook his right wrist that was holding the whip casually, "My last name is Gu, and his last name is Fang."
"This is the Gu family, not the Fang family."
"He's a guy named Fang who climbed over the wall in the middle of the night. Even if I beat him to death, so what?!"
"..." Gu Yunyan was speechless.
Fang Mingfeng was indeed in the wrong when he climbed over the wall and entered the Marquis's mansion at night.
Gu Yun'er held Fang Mingfeng's arm with one hand, turned around and looked at Fang Mingfeng again. When she met his burning eyes, her heart tightened.
After that day, she never saw Fang Mingfeng again...until tonight.
She grew up with him as childhood sweethearts and regarded him as a brother and a friend, but he ruined her engagement ceremony with King Kang. At the time, she was indeed resentful of him, but over time, her anger gradually subsided.
Why--
Gu Yunyan sighed secretly in her heart. At this moment, she was more worried about Fang Mingfeng's injuries.
Fang Mingfeng's last injury should not have fully healed, and now he was whipped by Gu Yanfei, which added insult to injury! Gu Yanfei was too bullying, she was clearly getting carried away!
"It was wrong of me to break into the Marquis's residence at night." Fang Mingfeng suppressed the myriad thoughts in his mind, took a step forward proudly, and protected Gu Yunyan behind him, "I will explain to the Marquis myself."
Fang Mingfeng looked at the whip in Gu Yanfei's hand warily, as if he was afraid that she would attack him at any time.
Gu Yanfei looked back and forth at this affectionate couple with little interest.
Huh? Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she opened them slightly wide, watching the golden luck on Gu Yunyan's body extend out strands of golden threads, entangled with Fang Mingfeng's body like hunting spider silk...
interesting.
This is a situation that has never happened before.
Gu Yanfei said thoughtfully: "The only son of Duke Ying, he was born as the crown prince. At the age of sixteen, he passed the imperial examination and won the first place in the military examination. He made many military achievements and became famous at a young age. He can be said to be a young talent with both literary and military talents."
"Oh, by the way, you have the blood of the direct descendant of the Yu family flowing in your body."
"It seems that the luck borrowed from the Yu family over the years has also brought you a lot of benefits..."
The girl's voice was as cold as the bright moonlight, as chilly as the wind on a winter night, and extremely sarcastic.
Fang Mingfeng didn't believe it at all. He frowned and sneered.
Gu Yanfei pretended not to hear anything, staring at his brows closely, and said to himself: "Master Fang, I see that your forehead is black, and there will be a bloody disaster next."
As the saying goes, you have to return what you borrow. Because of the backlash of borrowed luck, Fang Mingfeng's fate has obviously changed.
This is the killing wolf.
People with this kind of fate are most likely to attract covetous people.
Fang Mingfeng felt his hair stand on end after hearing Gu Yanfei's words. He became increasingly unhappy and sneered, "Are you trying to play tricks again?!"
The aura around him became increasingly cold.
"Whether you believe it or not is up to me." Gu Yanfei chuckled again and pointed the cat mask in his left hand at Gu Yunmeng. "The closer you get to her, the more unlucky you will be..."
"First you get hurt, then you lose money, then your family is destroyed, until you are left with nothing."
"By then, you will have been stuck in the quagmire and will not have a good ending!"
Gu Yunyan was blessed by heaven and everything went smoothly for her, but the same could not be said for the people around her.
Now, as long as Fang Mingfeng is close to Gu Yunmeng, he will become her nourishment, continuously nourishing her luck.
In the distant night, the heart-wrenching cries of a wild cat could be heard from afar, making the surrounding atmosphere even more eerie.
Fang Mingfeng's heart skipped a beat and his body tensed up, but his pride made him look directly into Gu Yanfei's eyes.
"Master Fang," Gu Yanfei raised the corners of his lips and smiled happily, "Will you still be happy with it when the time comes?"
In just a few words, Gu Yunmeng's golden luck became stronger and stronger. Strands of golden threads tightly wrapped around Fang Mingfeng, and the white light around him dimmed a lot.
This is going to be bad luck soon.
Gu Yanfei saw it clearly, he was in a good mood, and his eyes were sparkling.
"Gu Yanfei, have you had enough?!" Gu Yun'er walked out from behind Fang Mingfeng and stared directly at Gu Yanfei with eyes as deep as the night.
Gu Yanfei turned around, waved his hand, and left a half-hearted blessing:
"Prince Fang, I wish you good luck~"
She dragged out a happy ending and walked away, her dress fluttering like flowing clouds, and she looked like a fairy.
He had only taken a few steps when he heard Fang Mingfeng's cold and threatening voice not far behind him:
"Gu Yanfei, aren't you afraid that I will tell others about your ugly deeds?!"
Gu Yanfei's footsteps never stopped, and her slender body never shook at all. A sneer appeared at the corner of her lips.
In her previous life, she would be afraid.
In her previous life, when she faced Gu Yunmeng, she was unwilling, inferior, and ashamed of herself.
The more inferior she felt, the more she wanted to hide the time she spent in Huaibei. She didn't want anyone to know about those fourteen years of unbearable past. She just wanted to bury them completely...
Gu Yanfei leisurely twirled the cat mask between his fingers, ignored it, and just floated away.
Fang Mingfeng stood stiffly where he was, staring at Gu Yanfei's back that was gradually swallowed up by the night, gritting his teeth.
Another gust of night wind blew, and the mottled moonlight and tree shadows swayed on his face, making his eyes look uncertain.
What happened in Huaibei was a handle in his hand.
Originally, he kept it on purpose. If Gu Yanfei continued to pester him, he could take it out and make it impossible for her to gain a foothold in the capital.
But Gu Yanfei wanted to get rid of this marriage even more urgently than he did...
This handle has remained until now.
Before coming, Fang Mingfeng had anticipated various reactions from Gu Yanfei, but he had never expected the outcome at this moment.
Fang Mingfeng didn't move for a long time, and his face turned blue and white.
Gu Yunyan glanced at Gu Yanfei in front of him, then looked at Fang Mingfeng worriedly and asked with concern: "Mingfeng, are you okay?"
"Your injury..."
Gu Yanfei's whip had barbs, and every whip tore Fang Mingfeng's clothes and left a bloody mark on his skin. The wound was still bleeding.
"I'm fine." Fang Mingfeng laughed at himself, thinking: Once again, she saw him embarrassed...
Fang Mingfeng felt frustrated, but more importantly, he felt resentful and unwilling.
The more this happened, the more he didn't want to show weakness in front of her.
He hoped that he was the best version of himself in her heart, and he didn't want her to think that he was inferior to King Kang in everything.
Fang Mingfeng's thin lips moved slightly. He clearly had a lot to say in his heart, but he felt that any words would be pale and powerless.
Gu Yunyan grabbed Fang Mingfeng's wrist and said, "I have some Dragon Bone Powder. I'll bandage it for you..."
Upon hearing the word "Dragon Bone Powder", Fang Mingfeng's expression changed again.
Longgu Powder is an external injury medicine used by the royal family in the palace. Its effect is far better than ordinary wound medicines. It is easy to imagine where Gu Yun'er got Longgu Powder from.
Fang Mingfeng broke free from Gu Yunyan's hand and emphasized again: "I'm fine."
The tone of these three words was a little cold and hard, making the atmosphere stiff.
Fang Mingfeng couldn't look directly into Gu Yunyan's eyes and looked away: "I should go now."
He turned around immediately, and the long bloodstain on his back caught Gu Yun'er's eyes, which was shocking.
Gu Yunmeng was about to say something but stopped, and ultimately it turned into a silent sigh that was blown away by the cold night wind.
Fang Mingfeng left with big strides, returned to the east wall of the mansion, climbed up a sycamore tree beside the wall in a few steps, and then climbed over the wall to go out.
He was agile and accurately landed steadily from the top of the wall onto the black horse in the alley, which let out a low cry.
"Walk!"
Fang Mingfeng swung the whip, and it hit the horse's buttocks hard, with a bit of a sense of venting.
“Bang!”
The horse neighed as it rushed out of the alley. When it approached the entrance of the alley, another green-covered carriage happened to pass by on the street outside the alley.
The black horse under Fang Mingfeng's crotch was startled and stopped abruptly, with its two front hooves and even its body raised up. It let out a terrified neigh and breathed heavily from its mouth and nose.
The black horse twisted its body violently and threw Fang Mingfeng off its back.
Under the powerful momentum, Fang Mingfeng almost flew off the horse's back and hit the wall next to him heavily, making a dull thud.
The frightened black horse shook off its owner and rushed out of the alley. The sound of horse hooves faded away and it disappeared in a flash.
Fang Mingfeng slid down the wall and fell to the ground in a mess. His forehead was red and swollen and bleeding, and his left arm was twisted at a strange angle.
The severe pain in his body made Fang Mingfeng gasp and his face turned pale.
He wanted to get up, but his limbs were out of control, and his entire body felt as if it had been crushed by a heavy object.
I couldn't help but think of what Gu Yanfei had just said: "The closer you get to her, the more unlucky you will be..."
The girl's cold voice was like an ice knife piercing his heart.
