Afraid he might change his mind and demand it back, she quickly tucked it into her bosom. "Thank you, Your Highness. I'll take my leave now." With that, she picked up the stick and prepared to leave.
Gu Linchao pursed his lips and couldn't help but call out to her, "Wait a minute."
Wen Nong Nong turned around. "Does Your Highness have any further instructions?"
“Yesterday…” Gu Linchao began, but then frowned and stopped.
"Hmm?" Wen Nong Nong looked at him in confusion. Thinking of how generous he had been to her, teaching her footwork and even giving her an internal energy cultivation method, she knew she would inevitably have to ask him for advice in the future. So she said sincerely, "What is it, Your Highness? It's alright, just give me your orders. I will listen to whatever you say."
After saying that, she looked at him with an obedient expression.
Meeting the girl's encouraging gaze, Gu Linchao curled his fingers and blurted out what he had been holding back all night, "The booklet from yesterday was not mine. It was given to me by Eunuch Wang. I did not read it, nor do I have any interest in reading that kind of book."
Wen Nongnong was surprised. So this was what he wanted to talk about?
She coughed lightly, took two steps back, patted his shoulder, and gave him a knowing look.
"Your Majesty, I understand. That booklet was given to you by Eunuch Wang. You are not that kind of person at all. Your Highness is a man of integrity and upright character. How could you possibly be such a lecherous person? I understand everything."
Gu Linchao's gaze fell on her hand resting on his shoulder. He paused for a moment, then pursed his lips.
This girl simply didn't believe he hadn't looked.
"If Your Highness has nothing else, then I shall take my leave." Wen Nong Nong withdrew her hand. She was eager to go back and read the internal energy cultivation manual, so she did not notice his unpleasant expression.
After speaking, she turned to leave.
"Wen Nongnong!"
Gu Linchao's voice suddenly rang out from behind.
Wen Nong Nong turned around in surprise, "Does Your Highness have any more...?"
Before she could even utter the words "what is it?", the man suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.
Before she could react, a strong force pulled her up, she spun around, and then she was pinned against a tree.
The man's handsome face was within arm's reach, and his cool aura brushed against my face.
She felt a sudden wave of dizziness and couldn't help but blink.
Gu Linchao suddenly pinned her against a tree. What was he trying to do?
Her gaze couldn't help but linger on his sexy, handsome lips. Could it be...?
She instinctively closed her eyes, her heart pounding wildly.
Could it be what she's thinking?
She clenched her fists nervously, a faint sense of anticipation rising within her.
"You believe me, but I haven't read it."
The man's low, cold voice suddenly fell on my ear, like a bucket of cold water being poured over me.
Well……
Wen Nongnong suddenly opened her eyes. This...this...
She blinked, her face flushed, and she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Cough cough, she thought he...
She pushed him away, raised her hand to smooth a strand of hair behind her ear to hide her embarrassment, and said, "Of course I believe in Your Highness. There is no need for Your Highness to reiterate this again and again."
"You don't believe me." Gu Linchao's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, his words hitting the nail on the head.
"In this world, the person I trust most is Your Highness. Please don't overthink it," she said sincerely.
Gu Linchao was taken aback.
"You trust me the most?"
Wen Nong Nong nodded. "Your Majesty, I not only believe in you, but you are the only one in my heart and eyes." As she spoke, she took his hand and placed it on her heart. "Can Your Majesty feel it? My heart beats only for you."
