Only after Xiao Yan and Gu Yi approached did they see the two people tightly embracing each other.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have found it hard to believe that Gu Linchao, who was supposed to be abstinent and celibate, would actually be embracing and kissing a woman in public.
For a moment, the two of them stared in astonishment, their eyes wide and mouths agape.
They actually prefer to believe that they are seeing things.
Gu Linchao was also extremely uncomfortable. Seeing that Wen Nongnong still refused to let go, he had to use a clever trick to pry her hands open.
"Let's go." He hurriedly said this and started walking ahead.
At this moment, Wen Nongnong cried out "Ouch!" and suddenly fell to the ground, clutching her ankle and saying, "Your Highness, my foot hurts, I can't walk..."
Xiao Yan and Gu Yi's eyes widened again as they stared at her in surprise.
They were truly courageous. They could see through such a clumsy trick, let alone Hengzhi (the Imperial Uncle).
Now she's probably going to lose face. Given Hengzhi's (the Imperial Uncle's) personality, how could he possibly turn back to help her?
Both of them felt that she was wasting her efforts and shook their heads.
However, the next moment, Gu Linchao, who had already reached the alley entrance, suddenly stopped.
He glanced back at the girl sitting on the ground, his brows furrowing slightly. He knew she was faking it, but his feet seemed to have a mind of their own and quickly turned back.
Xiao Yan and Gu Yi were utterly shocked.
But what shocked them even more was yet to come.
Suddenly, Gu Linchao bent down and picked Wen Nongnong up in his arms.
Xiao Yan: "..."
Gu Yi: "..."
Why does my face hurt so much?
No, has Hengzhi (the Imperial Uncle) changed his ways?
Wen Nongnong made a face at the two people who were standing there frozen in place.
Actually, her heart was fluttering a little too.
When she pretended to fall, she didn't expect Gu Linchao to actually come back.
After all, she had faked a fall once back in the Prince's mansion, and back then, no one paid her any attention.
Thinking of this, she bit her lip and glanced at Gu Linchao's expression.
He remained as aloof as ever, yet even at night, his handsome features were undeniable.
As soon as they exited the alley, Wen Tingyun came to greet them. Seeing that Wen Nongnong was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Linchao glanced at him, then looked away.
Wen Tingyun blushed slightly, wishing she could find a hole to bury herself in.
Now everyone knows about his embarrassing moment tonight, dressing up as a foreign beauty.
"Yes, it was Nong Nong who made me dress up," he stammered, completely betraying Wen Nong Nong.
Wen Nongnong: "..."
Noticing Gu Linchao's glance, she coughed lightly and nudged his hand. "Um, my gold and silver are still on the ground. I need to pick them up."
Gu Linchao looked at Si Yi and Wang Houde, "Pick them up without missing a single one."
"puff!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong almost choked on her own saliva. She looked at him with surprise and shock. Why did she feel that he was even stingier than she was?
Not one was left out, this...
Gu Linchao didn't look at her again, and carried her to the carriage next to him.
After sitting down in the carriage, Wen Nongnong quickly opened the window and looked out. She saw that Si Yi and Wang Houde were indeed picking up the gold and silver she had dropped, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Now you can explain." At this moment, Gu Linchao's deep and cold voice came from behind.
Wen Nongnong felt a chill run down her spine.
Why was Gu Linchao so clear-headed?
Even after she used her beauty to seduce him, he still managed to stay clear-headed and keep thinking about it.
