Jin Yun smiled again. “This is an extremely important matter. Besides you, I really don’t have any other suitable candidates.”
Gong Yimo was a bit hesitant. Going to Da Yu and to see Gong Che’s people… although Gong Che already replaced his people during their first time repairing the canal, she couldn’t be certain that there wouldn’t be a familiar face. Even if she wore a disguise, it was still a bit dangerous…
Seeing her hesitation, Jin Yun said toughly, “It’s been decided. Only you can do this! Just help me out.”
Gong Yimo thought that there shouldn’t be a big problem so she agreed. Plus, back then, she had already abandoned the thought of contacting them because she had left in a hurry and was scared of being found by people. This time, it was a chance for her to contact them and restart the plan…
After finalizing the issue, Jin Yun appeared to be well relaxed. It was better here. When he was in the palace, he couldn’t even breathe. But Gong Yimo placed the glass down all of a sudden.
She said in a gloomy voice, “Before going, I have a very serious question that I want to ask you!”
“What?” Jin Yun stared at her and sipped the tea. Although he didn’t need to be a singer anymore, the moment he looked at her from the side of his eyes, he appeared to be breathtaking. But Gong Yimo wasn’t moved by his beauty.
“Didn’t you reject proposals because you like me?” She heard him snort in laughter. Thankfully, he wasn’t facing her. He wiped his mouth and his face was flushed. He glared at her.
“What nonsense are you thinking about?”
Gong Yimo chuckled but deep in her eyes, it was filled with seriousness.
“I just want to confirm this. If it is really because of me, I wouldn’t feel wronged if Senior Imperial Concubine went to cause trouble for me in the future.”
Jin Yin’s smile gradually vanished. He looked deeply at her.
“It’s not you.”
After that, he repeated again as if he was emphasizing something.
“It’s not because of you.”
Seeing that he answered straightforwardly and seemed sincere, Gong Yimo nodded in satisfaction.
“Then I’m at ease! Ah, I won’t be at the construction site. Remember to have someone watch over it. I’m going to pack my things and prepare to go Da Yu now!”
Feeling her excitement, Jin Yun suddenly hesitatingly pulled her.
“Are you coming back?”
At the same time Gong Yimo thought that the question was random, she was also touched.
“Of course I’m coming back!”
Jin Yun sighed and slowly let go of her.
Seeing her walking away, Jin Yun then clutched his heart. He sighed.
He will not admit that he likes her.
Because she was like an eagle in the sky. He couldn’t have her.
He just needed to guard her.
He could say that he didn’t like her in front of the whole world.
As long as he knew it was a lie, then it was enough.
Gong Yimo changed her clothes and wiped her face black. But she felt this wasn’t enough so she drew her eyebrows thicker and added a mole on the side of her face. Her temperament changed completely, as if she was a strategist who had traveled extensively around the world.
This was some of the experiences she gained from many years of disguising herself. This wasn’t the first time she went to Da Yu but haven’t been recognized by anyone. Firstly, the people by the border didn’t really know her. Secondly, she had superior skills. But she might be meeting some close friends this time. Therefore, she had to be more cautious.
