Chapter 124: Unattainable
🕑 Added 2023-06-25 22:12:53 +0000 UTCAs the crowd on the street observed the two women, they began to misunderstand the situation.
One of them blushed, seemingly affected by their recent conversation. The onlookers drew various conclusions, such as the possibility of an extraordinary relationship between the two.
Sensing the strange glances directed at them, Gu Xun’er realized that they were being misunderstood.
Uncomfortable with the peculiar attention, she reached out and held Han Huan'er's hand, saying, "Huan'er, let's go home."
"Oh!" Han Huan'er nodded in agreement, allowing Gu Xun’er to lead her away.
The strange gazes continued to follow them as they left, leaving the crowd perplexed.
"Sigh..."
Finally, someone sighed and spoke up, "They were two lovely girls, but why did it have to be..."
The person's voice trailed off, filled with disappointment. Clearly, they hadn't expected such a relationship between two young and beautiful girls. What had happened to this world?
Couldn't they leave something for the single dogs like them? Even a drop of soup would be enough!
Not only that person, but many others around him also sighed, feeling that it was a pity. What had happened to this world?
Why did they have to face such difficulties?
...
Haotian Mansion.
In Gu Xun’er's courtyard, she still held Han Huan'er's delicate hand, while Huan'er lowered her head, her cheeks flushed and covered in a rosy hue.
"Xun’er... Sister..." Han Huan'er weakly called out, her voice trembling slightly.
"Sorry!"
As soon as Gu Xun’er heard Huan'er's words, she realized that she was still holding the other girl's hand and quickly let go.
Looking at Huan'er's blushing face, Gu Xun’er felt puzzled. But soon, she figured out what was going on and her heart trembled with surprise.
"Huan'er, you couldn't be..."
Gu Xun’er's gaze turned slightly strange as she looked at Han Huan'er, her words pausing momentarily.
Huan'er was also intelligent and quickly understood what Gu Xun’er was trying to express from her words.
She quickly shook her head and said, "No, Sister Xun’er, it's not like that." In her heart, she whispered, "Even if it were true, I can't admit it. I have my pride, don't I?"
"Oh!"
Upon hearing Huan'er's response, Gu Xun’er finally breathed a sigh of relief, although she didn't fully believe Huan'er's words.
Changing the subject, Gu Xun’er asked, "Huan'er, you mentioned earlier that there's another way for me to attend the Clan Leader's wedding?"
In Gu Xun’er's mind, there was only one thought: to escape from the Soul Clan and leave this place.
Huan'er replied, "You can ask Lord Hun Xiu to take you!"
"Him?"
As Gu Xun’er heard Huan'er's words, the image of Hun Xiu appeared in her mind.
At this moment, Huan'er continued, "Of course, Lord Hun Xiu is a Dou Sheng powerhouse in the clan, and Dou Shengs have the privilege of bringing someone to attend the Clan Leader's wedding."
"So, if Sister Xun’er wants to attend the Clan Leader's wedding, she can only ask Lord Hun Xiu to take her. Alternatively, if Sister Xun’er knows other Dou Sheng-level powerhouses in the clan, she can ask them to take her too."
"Oh!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xun’er began to ponder. It was true that Hun Xiu had the status to take her to attend Hun Tiandi’s grand wedding.
But why would Hun Xiu want to take her?
Moreover, her little scheming probably couldn't escape Hun Xiu's eyes. After all, he knew her true identity best.
Just as she was thinking, Hun Xiu arrived.
He came rather quickly!
"Lord Hun Xiu."
Seeing the arrival of Hun Tiandi, Han Huan'er quickly saluted.
Hun Tiandi waved his hand and said, "You may leave."
"Yes!"
Without hesitation, Han Huan'er quickly left the courtyard, making way for Hun Tiandi and Gu Xun’er.
"You're here again?" Gu Xun’er looked at Hun Tiandi with a displeased expression, pursing her lips. She was unhappy about Hun Tiandi’s appearance.
Hun Tiandi calmly spoke, "Have you made your decision?"
"What decision?" Gu Xun’er blurted out, realizing something, and crossed her arms, saying, "Hun Xiu, it's impossible. You will never possess me, you bully!"
"Please stop daydreaming, you're not worthy."
"Hehe..."
Hun Tiandi sneered, "Are you the one who's dreaming? It is I who you will never possess."
"I'm here to tell you that you should leave Haotian Manor."
"Leave?"
Gu Xun’er was momentarily stunned by the words, then quickly regained her composure and asked, "What do you mean?"
Hun Tiandi replied, "Gu Xun’er, you should be clever enough. The Leader's wedding is approaching, and I received news that Gu Yuan himself will come to the Soul Clan."
"So, do you understand?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xun’er looked at Hun Tiandi with excitement and asked, "So, are you planning to let me go?"
"Are you daydreaming? Let you go?" Hun Tiandi couldn't help but mock, "Gu Xun’er, I've heard that you're brainless despite having a big chest, but it seems like your chest isn't that big either. Why are you fantasizing in your head?"
"What I mean is, you should change your location."
"Go to a place where Gu Yuan won't be able to find you, no matter what."
"Hmm?"
Gu Xun’er frowned.
Just as she was about to say something, she realized that her surroundings had completely changed.
The courtyard, the green grass, the red flowers, and the trees were all gone. There was nothing but emptiness around her. If one had to say there was something, it was chaos and an inexplicable heat.
"What is this place?"
Gu Xun’er was dumbfounded.
What on earth was happening?
In the blink of an eye, she appeared here, where there was nothing at all. What kind of place was this?
A wisp of Hun Tiandi projection appeared in the void space and looked at the bewildered Gu Xun’er, saying, "Stay here until the Clan Leader's wedding!"
"What is this place?" Gu Xun’er asked, but Hun Tiandi completely ignored her question and didn't bother to answer.
After his words fell, Hun Tiandi projection disappeared from the void space.
"You bastard! Shameless... good-for-nothing..." Gu Xun’er couldn't help but curse as she watched the disappearing Hun Tiandi. He left a little girl like her here. Didn't he fear any danger?
He was simply inhuman.
"Hehe..."
"Teeheehee..." As Gu Xun’er grumbled and cursed, a sinister laughter echoed in the void space, entering her ears like a bolt from the blue.
"Gurgle..."
Gu Xun’er swallowed nervously, her body trembling as she cautiously looked around. This eerie laughter couldn't have come from a human. Besides her, there might be... monsters in this ghostly place!
Splash!
Just as Gu Xun’er was on edge, a dark figure flashed past her eyes at an incredible speed, resembling a ghostly presence. Gu Xun’er couldn't even see it clearly.
