Chapter 660: Chapter 660: The Naive Little Flower Fairy VS The Worldly Wealthy Beauty (Part 10)
By the ti Yu Wenrui realized what had happened and arrived at the courtyard, it was already night, and Yun Chuqing had left.
The yard was very dark, the servant ntioned that Miss You Lan did not allow lighting any lamps.
Yu Wenrui, holding a lantern, walked into the room and saw Gu Shengyin sitting with her knees hugged on the wide, soft couch at a glance.
Seeing him approach, Gu Shengyin simply looked at him calmly.
Yet that single look seized Yu Wenrui’s heart, as though she was crying, even though her expression remained unchanged.
“You Lan…” he called her.
“I heard that you haven’t eaten all day, so I brought your favorite flower honey cake.” Although You Lan was a transformation of a flower, she didn’t exhibit the typical resentnt towards her kind and enjoyed various desserts made from flowers and fruits.
“Yu Wenrui.” Gu Shengyin spoke softly.
“Today, soone ca to my courtyard and told many things.”
Yu Wenrui fell silent.
“She told that you had a purpose in keeping in this courtyard, didn’t she?”
She looked at Yu Wenrui with expectancy, hoping he would say no.
“…Yes.” Yu Wenrui shifted his gaze in embarrassnt.
He could not lie while looking into her eyes.
Gu Shengyin’s expression grew even more bewildered.
“You were going to give to soone else?”
Yu Wenrui felt as if she would burst into tears any second, and his heart throbbed with pain, but indeed, this was what he had done.
“Originally, that was my plan, but, You Lan, later on…” he wanted to say that he had regretted it later.
“Then was your kindness to before, taking out to play, taking to see fireworks, all deliberate?”
“…Yes.”
Gu Shengyin turned her head away, no longer looking at Yu Wenrui.
“I understand now. The last thing you wanted my help with was this, right?”
Yu Wenrui wanted to deny it, he opened his mouth, his mind flooded with unbearable mories, but ultimately, he remained silent.
Gu Shengyin thought, if it were truly You Lan, perhaps her heart might have shattered at this mont.
“…Fine. I’ll agree to it.”
She turned her face back toward him, and Yu Wenrui clearly saw the fine shimr in her eyes, the tears.
“I’ll help you this one last ti, and afterward, we’re even, no more dealings with each other.”
“…Fine.”
“You can leave now. I don’t want to see you again.”
Yu Wenrui stood in the darkness for a long ti, so long that Gu Shengyin thought he had already left, but she was suddenly embraced forcefully.
However, this ti, a flash of white light flitted across her body, easily repelling Yu Wenrui.
“Don’t touch anymore.”
“Don’t touch anymore.” Those simple six words, like the heaviest copper hamr, rcilessly smashed onto Yu Wenrui’s heart, shattering it into pieces.
He clutched at his chest, where it hurt so much that he even struggled to breathe smoothly.
He finally left.
And never ca back to that small courtyard again.
“Who allowed you to make decisions on your own?” he said with a cold gaze to the person kneeling on the ground.
That person was a confidant left to him by his mother, who had been by his side since childhood.
“Prince, I took the liberty myself, well aware that I was going against authority, and I do not expect your forgiveness,” the person said staunchly, without a word of defense.
It was he who had leaked the information to Yun Chuqing, using her mouth to tell Gu Shengyin the truth.
“Only by doing so would the Prince truly give up, and rember what our ultimate goal has always been!”
