There was silence in the car.
...” After the little orange lamp in Gu Yanfei’s hand swayed a few times, it stopped in midair. The candlelight caressed her exquisite outline gently.
Gu Yanfei thought that her hearing was normal, and she heard every word Gu Yunrong said, but she didn’t understand it at all.
She blinked, her face a little dazed.
Wasn’t the person Yu Chaoyun liked Fang Mingfeng?
In her previous life, Yu Chaoyun had deliberately approached her for Fang Mingfeng’s sake. On the surface, she pretended to be like a sister, but she had stabbed her in the back and even given Fang Mingfeng the ‘Thing” she had stolen from her, earning him a bright future.
At that time, she was badly injured.
She had been sad, resentful, and at a loss. She didn’t understand why her former friend had such malicious intentions towards her or why the human heart could be so vicious!
The past stabbed Gu Yanfei’s heart a few times before she calmed down.
Even if she was reborn, Yu Chaoyun should like Fang Mingfeng.
Then why would Gu Yunrong say that? She couldn’t have guessed it herself, right?
She wouldn’t go that far.
Gu Yanfei blinked again and rubbed her chin with her free left hand. For a moment, she ignored Gu Yunrong.
Gu Yunrong stared intently into Gu Yanfei’s eyes and continued, “The Eldest
Prince is violent and ruthless. He’s not a good match.’
‘Men can have three wives and four concubines. Even if they fail in their marriage, there will still be a wider sky outside. However, it’s different for women. A woman is trapped in the inner residence. Marriage is the rest of a woman’s life. There’s no turning back.”
‘Second Sister, don’t do such a thing just to compete with me.’
Gu Yunrong looked like she was giving advice from the bottom of her heart, hoping that Gu Yanfei would listen.
Gu Yunrong looked at Gu Yanfei, and Gu Yanfei also looked at Gu Yunrong. Her eyes were clear, like a clear spring or an ice sword.
This gaze seemed to be able to see through everything, as if it could penetrate one’s appearance and strike the depths of one’s soul.
” Gu Yunrong felt that her thoughts seemed to be exposed in front of Gu
Yanfei. This feeling made her a little uncomfortable.
However, she still calmly met Gu Yanfei’s gaze. She admitted that she had done nothing wrong and her words were from the bottom of her heart.
In this Great Jin Dynasty, once a woman was entrusted to the wrong person, her life would be ruined.
Although Emperor Taizu had changed the law of divorce to protect the rights of women, the concept of divorce hadn’t changed for thousands of years. Even if a divorced woman returned to her maiden home, she would still be looked down upon.
Gu Yunrong continued, ‘The Eldest Prince isn’t a good match.”
‘Second Sister, you should return him to Miss Yu.”
Yu Chaoyun really liked the Eldest Prince. In her heart, the Eldest Prince was still that gentle and refined young man. The first love since young is the most sincere. Perhaps Yu Chaoyun could resolve the hostility in the Eldest Prince’s heart and they could save each other… This was also a good story.
“I understand!”
Gu Yanfei raised her hand and snapped her fingers.
Gu Yunrong was confused by her sudden action. She didn’t know what she understood and only thought that she was beating around the bush.
Gu Yanfei could roughly guess what Yu Chaoyun had said to Gu Yunrong. It was probably just some weakness, some difficulties, some “true feelings”, and some memories…
The nature of humans really didn’t change. Yu Chaoyun loved to play those kinds of sisterly games. In her previous life, her goal was Gu Yanfei. In this life, was she extending a friendly hand to Gu Yunrong?
“Pfft.”
Gu Yanfei laughed out loud. She turned her face to the side and snickered for a while before turning back. Her eyes curved slightly as she asked, “Do you think the Eldest Prince isn’t a good match?”
The little orange lamp in her hand also swayed twice, and a faint orange fragrance wafted out.
Gu Yunrong nodded. “Yes.”
The corners of Gu Yanfei’s lips curled up even higher as she asked, “Is Kang
Wang a good match?”
Gu Yunrong nodded again. ‘Of course.”
Kang Wang was sincere with her. He didn’t look at her background or status. He was purely sincere and didn’t mix any benefits into their relationship. Gu Yanfei’s smile deepened, revealing a pair of faint smiling dimples on her lips.
Her smile puzzled Gu Yunrong.
Gu Yunrong frowned slightly and was about to say something when Gu Yanfei suddenly stopped laughing and looked at her with a faint, clear, and cold gaze.
‘You,” Gu Yanfei said indifferently. ‘You’re blind, and so is your heart.”
Gu Yunrong’s body stiffened, and the corners of her eyes trembled uncontrollably, as if she was suppressing something.
But in the end, she managed to suppress her unhappiness and maintain her poise.
She took a deep breath and said patiently, “Second Sister, you don’t think Kang Wang will be implicated in the crime today, do you?
Before Gu Yanfei could react, Gu Yunrong sighed. ‘Don’t be so naive.”
‘IAS the ancient saying goes, a hundred-year-old dynasty and a thousand-year-old aristocratic family. The aristocratic families have a deep foundation. They’ve been connected by marriage for several generations, and their power is intertwined. Now, they even occupy half of the royal court.
They’re not easy to shake…”
As Gu Yunrong spoke, she sighed in her heart. Gu Yanfei had just arrived in the capital and was in the inner residence. She probably knew nothing about the politics of the royal court and didn’t know the influence of those aristocratic families in the royal court.
However, Gu Yunrong wanted to say something, but Gu Yanfei didn’t want to hear it. She raised her hand and knocked on the wall of the carriage, interrupting her. “Stop the car.”
The coachman outside heard her and responded.
The carriage quickly slowed and stopped by the side of the road.
Gu Yanfei leaned against the wall and yawned lazily. She said to Gu Yunrong, ‘Get out.”
Gu Yunrong frowned and felt that Gu Yanfei was simply ridiculous.
‘You’re so noisy,” Gu Yanfei said seriously.
These three words finally made Gu Yunrong’s expression change. For a moment, a cold expression appeared on her face.
She laughed in anger. There was a sigh in her eyes that said, “How long are you going to be unreasonable?!”
This was the Marquis Mansion’s carriage. She was the legitimate daughter of the second branch. What right did Gu Yanfei have to chase her out of the carriage?!
Gu Yunrong looked up at Gu Yanfei with a determined gaze.
She didn’t owe Gu Yanfei anything, nor did she let her down. There was naturally no need for her to tolerate everything.
She would never get out of the car.
Gu Yanfei placed the little orange lamp on the small table without saying a word. She took off the Mystic Flame Whip at her waist and casually curled it in her hand.
Her movements were lazy and casual, like a leopard’s. Elegant, lazy, mysterious… and unruly. It made Gu Yunrong feel like prey that had been targeted.
‘Swoosh!”
Gu Yanfei raised her whip and whipped it over.
When the long whip flew up in the small space, the sound of the air being torn apart became even sharper, and the air seemed to tremble..
