Out of an instinctive liking and the need for benefits, Li Guo'er became even more affectionate towards him. Looking at his cautious appearance, Li Guo'er giggled and gently held his arm. She whispered softly into his ear, "What are you doing? I'm not a man-eating tiger. Look at you, where's the vigor and vigor that you had when you bullied me? "
As Li Guo'er said this, a hint of spring suddenly rippled across the tip of her brows amidst her blush. Yang Fan's heart tightened. He quickly looked around and cautioned, "Princess, please be careful with your words. If someone overhears this, it'll be very bad for both of us."
Guo'er was tipsy and fearless. She pouted coquettishly, "You're not afraid to do it, but are you afraid to say it?"
Yang Fan was speechless. At first, he only thought that she was a beautiful village girl. With his status, it was not a big deal for him to occupy a village girl. Even if this girl had parents and relatives, as long as he finished his business, he could send someone to explain his identity to her family. Wouldn't her family nod their heads in agreement?
Who knew that she was … and an unmarried girl!
Yang Fan had a headache. His palms were sweating. He was no longer the hothead he used to be. He had a family and a business while the other party was an unmarried girl. If the matter was exposed, the consequences would be unthinkable. Moreover, this young girl was the most spoiled and willful. She did not care about the consequences. He had already missed her once. Now, he must not be entangled with her again.
Yang Fan emphasized his tone and said solemnly, "Princess! This is not a joke! This is not the countryside of a mountain village. Even if it was the countryside of a mountain village, any scandals about an unmarried girl would be a disaster. Luoyang is under the feet of the Emperor. You're a member of the royal family. You need to be especially careful! "
Guo'er's expression tightened. Yang Fan saw that she had been frightened and felt relieved. He said, "I'm getting off the carriage. I still have matters to attend to on my return to the city. Take care, Princess."
Guo'er's eyes flashed. She suddenly said, "Are you talking about Xue Huaiyi?"
Yang Fan bent down and was about to reach out to pull the curtain, but when he heard this, his movements suddenly froze.
A sense of mockery flashed in Guo 'er's eyes as she spoke slowly, "Or … Zhang Yizhi, Zhang Changzong?"
Guo 'er had been' surprised 'by the Zhang brothers' beauty on that day. That was why she had been paying close attention to this pair of beautiful brothers. These days, she had purposely befriended some palace maids and eunuchs in the Palace. She had also been in close contact with the Capital City's socialites outside the Palace. These people happened to be fond of gossiping. That was why she was very clear about some of the romantic rumors that were circulating in the Capital City.
Guo 'er mentioned many names in one breath. Some of them Yang Fan had heard of before, some of them he had never heard of before. However, those people that he had heard of were the gigolos or lovers of certain noblewomen. From this, it seemed that the names that he had never heard of before were probably of similar statuses. It had not been long since Guo 'er arrived in the Capital City, yet he had already understood all of this.
At the end of Guo 'er's story, her tone suddenly slowed down. She squinted her eyes slightly and revealed a sly glint like a fox. She spoke slowly, "There's also my aunt, Princess Taiping …"
Yang Fan's heart tightened. He could not help but ask, "What about her?"
Li Guo 'er stared into his eyes slyly. She asked with a spurious smile, "What about her, is it true?"
Yang Fan shone coldly and pretended to be calm as he said, "It's just a bunch of gossipy women trying to stir up trouble. How can we take it seriously?"
Li Guo 'er smiled sweetly. She stretched out her hand and combed the hair on the side of her temple. She blinked at him delicately and said, "That's right. You're only sitting in the carriage with her. What are you afraid of stirring up trouble for?"
Yang Fan was at a loss for words. Upon seeing this, Li Guo 'er suddenly asked nervously, "You and her … Is it true?"
Yang Fan peered at her strangely because he felt that Li Guo 'er's expression and tone seemed to be … excited? That's right. Women liked to gossip. But how could she be excited when she heard that a man who had such an intimate relationship with her had a relationship with another woman?
Yang Fan could not understand Li Guo 'er's psychology at all. In fact, for Li Guo' er, at this moment, she was like a country girl who had just entered the city. She had a very serious sense of inferiority, but she concealed it very well. The more inferiority she felt, the more arrogant she was to cover it up, so no one noticed it.
That day at the Dragon Gate, when she saw Princess Taiping in splendid attire, Li Guo 'er was immediately awed by the noble, elegant, mature and generous temperament of a noble lady displayed by Princess Taiping. She had a feeling that Princess Taiping was like a fairy concubine of the Son of Heaven.
When she heard about the affair between Yang Fan and Princess Taiping from other women, she was shocked, but not sad or angry. Instead, she was surprised and … honored!
"It turns out that I'm lucky enough to have the same man as that elegant and noble fairy concubine. It turns out that I'm not so bad after all!"
This was Li Guo 'er's mentality. She felt honored and even excited.
Since she knew that Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi were the exclusive property of her most feared grandmother, she avoided them like the plague. But it was not the case for Yang Fan. In addition to Yang Fan's strong and handsome appearance, as well as the power he had that was worth fighting for by the Li family, there was also this subtle psychology of comparison.
Li Guo 'er was very envious of Princess Taiping's elegant demeanor. She hoped that she could also become such a noble, elegant and brilliant lady. At the same time, she didn't think that her father's sister had any great ability to make her afraid. So she didn't avoid it like she did with Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi. She wanted to replace Yang Fan. She had a feeling that if she could take over Yang Fan, it would be her victory, and she would surpass her aunt.
Yang Fan couldn't understand Li Guo 'er's mentality at the moment. He frowned and said, "You know that I'm under orders to recruit soldiers. I entered the city today because I have important matters to attend to. I can't stay any longer, I really have to leave."
The carriage wheels rolled and rolled through the busy city. Inside the curtain, the drunken Guo 'er felt like she was inside a small hibiscus tent. She completely forgot that outside the curtain was the boundless world and all living beings. She grabbed hold of Yang Fan who was about to leave. Her pair of watery eyes glanced at him and said shyly, "I … I miss …"
…
Yang Fan asked in confusion, "What are you thinking about?"
Li Guo 'er was extremely angry. She pinched his waist angrily and pouted coquettishly, "Of course I want you! Do you have to force me to say it? "
Yang Fan said in shock, "What is this place? You can't do that! Princess, you've just arrived in the capital, your father's position is not yet stable. You must be careful in all aspects at all times. You mustn't make any mistakes. I still have matters to attend to, so I really have to leave. We'll meet again! "
"Wait!"
The more timid Yang Fan was, the bolder Guo 'er became. She wrapped her hands around Yang Fan's arm and raised her red brocade boots to block in front of Yang Fan. She pouted her red lips that reeked of fruity wine and said in a sweet and innocent manner, "It's fine if you want to leave, but you have to kiss me first!"
"What?"
"Just once. I'll let you go after I kiss you, or else … Hmph!"
The red brocade boots were custom-made. They were delicate and adorable. Her straight calves were wrapped in white silk. They poked out from under her skirt and were bound inside the boots. The graceful shape of her legs was completely revealed. This scene was just like a young girl acting coquettishly to restrain her lover. It was very alluring but Yang Fan's heart was burning with rage.
As a woman, one did not know the big picture, one did not know the importance of the situation, and one thought herself infallible. These three were the most detestable to Yang Fan. Li Guo 'er had committed all of them at this moment.
Yang Fan's heart was secretly filled with loathing. However, he could not afford to fall out with her at this moment. As he was hesitating, Li Guo 'er giggled. She pouted her alluring lips that reeked of fruity fragrance and kissed him. Just as he was about to kiss her, the carriage happened to pass by the intersection. A gust of wind blew past. There was no wall to obstruct it, it blew the curtains.
There was a man leading a donkey on the side. The donkey was carrying a bundle of firewood on its back. The man walked briskly, the curtain fluttered and was scraped by the firewood. With a 'chi la' sound, the veil that surrounded the carriage was immediately torn off. The scene of the two people in the carriage puckered their lips and were about to kiss was exposed to the world.
The passersby on the street were surprised to see such a scene. There was a sudden silence. Then, there was an uproar. Yang Fan could not help but turn pale with fright.
The man leading the donkey was covered by a curtain. He hurriedly pulled down the curtain and saw that it was a noble's carriage. There was a man and a woman in the carriage. The man was staring at him with a murderous look. He hurriedly shouted, "It's not my fault, it's not my fault, I was just passing by!"
Yang Fan looked at the man leading the donkey. He seemed to be a little familiar, but for a moment he could not remember where he had seen him.
The man leading the donkey was the same Dumby who had almost caused Di Renjie, who had just returned to Luoyang, to fall off the donkey's back. At this moment, there was a commotion on the street. Yang Fan could not just sit in the carriage. He hurriedly jumped off the carriage and climbed onto the back of the horse. He led a few bodyguards who could not help but laugh and galloped away.
At this moment, a kind-hearted passerby shouted at Dumby, who was still loudly defending himself, "Dumby! Why are you still not running? Are you waiting to pay for it? "
Dumby was instantly enlightened. He hurriedly led the donkey and ran. He was also quick-witted. He did not follow the main road but immediately turned into a square. After a few turns in the alley, he felt that he had shaken off his pursuers. Only then did he stop in his tracks with lingering fear. He looked back and saw that a fine palace dress was still on the donkey's back. This dress was worth a lot of money. He could not help but laugh foolishly again.
On the other side of the street, Li Guo 'er was also very embarrassed to be suddenly seen kissing. Unfortunately, the curtain that was covering the carriage had been taken away by the dumby leading the donkey. She could only order her servants to quickly drive the carriage forward and leave this place. The common people saw such a romantic scene. The man was handsome and the woman was charming. Naturally, they were full of praise.
The scene of the incident was at the entrance of Shangshan Square. Shangshan Square was filled with the relatives of the rich. Many of the people who came and went here were the descendants of the rich and the servants. One of them recognized Yang Fan and immediately announced his identity. When the common people heard that it was Yang Fan, they could not help but clap their hands and exclaim, "His reputation is well-deserved. He is indeed the number one romantic person in Luoyang!"
