Outside the guest house, Gu Ruoyun noticed the man who was standing at the door with one glance. A sense of astonishment flashed across her eyes but she soon felt relieved.
Knowing the Xia family's power in the Imperial City, how could they not know where I'm staying?
"Lady Gu!"
Just as Gu Ruoyun was about to enter the guest house, a hand grabbed her.
Lu Chen frowned as he stared at Gu Ruoyun and spoke in a gentle voice, "There were others around just now. In order not to embarrass you, there were some things that I had not said."
In order not to embarrass me?
Gu Ruoyun laughed icily, "Are you afraid that I'll embarrass myself or are you afraid that your true colors will be exposed in front of everyone?"
Lu Chen's expression changed drastically and he replied angrily, "What's the point of this?"
"What?" Gu Ruoyun turned around in astonishment and blinked in astonishment.
"Gu Ruoyun, don't think that I don't know that you're playing hard to get!" Lu Chen scoffed coldly, "Why did you go to the Xia family home? Just for a nobody like Mo Shangfei? Didn't you want to use Mo Shangfei to get close to me? I've already given you the chance, what more do you want? "
Gu Ruoyun was shocked.
That's right, she was completely shocked and could not even react in time.
How could this guy have such a big imagination? I went to the Xia family home to use Mo Shangfei to get close to him? How on earth did he see this? What have I done to cause such a misunderstanding?
"What? Did I hit the nail on the head? " Lu Chen replied with a look of disdain, "From the first time we met, the way you looked at me has been strange. If that's not liking, then what is it? You knew that Ling'er likes cute little boys so you used your brother to seduce her so that you could gain my attention! You've succeeded! You've certainly caught my attention! What more do you want now? Playing hard to get is enough once. What's the point of doing this every time? "
Gu Ruoyun smiled. She then turned around and looked at Lu Chen's ashen face. The smile on the corners of her lips grew wider and wider.
"You want to marry me?"
Gu Ruoyun understood that Lu Chen had put in a lot of effort in order to gain Xia Chuxue's favor. Now, he wants to marry her? Gu Ruoyun would never believe that he had no ulterior motives!
"Not bad," Lu Chen nodded, looking as if he was doing charity for her, "I'm interested in you now. You've succeeded!"
"Lu Chen, I think you and Xia Chuxue are more compatible. Both of you are sinister and cunning, and both of you are like a white lotus!" The smile on Gu Ruoyun's face slowly disappeared, "However, if you hand over the lives of everyone in the Xia family, perhaps I'll consider it."
Of course, it was just a thought!
"Gu Ruoyun, don't push your luck!" Lu Chen's expression darkened and he no longer maintained his gentle demeanor. If not for the Patriarch's orders, he would have already made his move. "You are unwilling to marry me because you are worried that I will take you as my concubine, right? You don't have to worry about that. Since it's a marriage, she'll definitely be the main wife! I, Lu Chen, will never go back on my word! "
Gu Ruoyun was just about to say something when a flash of red appeared in front of her.
When she saw the silver-haired man in red robes, Gu Ruoyun was momentarily stunned. A wave of ecstasy welled up in her heart and her clear and cold eyes slowly filled with warmth.
When Lu Chen saw the joy on the woman's face, he thought that he had guessed her worries and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Since I've given my word and you don't have any other questions, you can follow me back to the Xia family home now. Once your Master has arrived, we'll hold the wedding ceremony."
However, that was no longer the case.
Once he returns to the Xia family home, he would make this woman help him frame the Holy Doctor, Bai Zhongtian! Once Bai Zhongtian arrives, he would join forces with Supreme Jin and kill him! By then, this woman, whom he had once used, would no longer be of any use to him!
He would never marry her!
