"Madam always keeps putting my name together with someone else’s! Aren’t you afraid of angering your husband? Or is my Devil King reputation too intimidating, so you’re planning to hide King Yan in a golden house and not let me see anyone?"
As Li Yan spoke, he would lift Gu Tong’s chin slightly with each sentence, his body gradually leaning forward.
By the time he finished his words, Gu Tong could already smell the faint mint in his breath, and even feel his breathing...
Because they were so close, only a finger’s width apart... Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novel fire.net
Li Yan lowered his eyes, looking at the girl in his palm, and said with a light smile, "Please, Madam, enlighten me!"
Enli...ghten your sister...
Talking is fine, but what’s the point of flirting...
Gu Tong, who had no resistance against Li Yan, was thoroughly bewitched by his teasing.
Gu Tong, on the verge of tears, looked at her family’s Young Master, knowing he did it on purpose, yet had no way to deal with him...
Because dear Gu Tong, loving her husband to death, had already unprincipledly agreed with her Young Master’s viewpoint, and found it quite reasonable, after all, always putting his name together with Qiu Xue’s made her feel uncomfortable all over, okay...
Gu Tong had fought many battles, but had never been defeated so badly, utterly routed, with no power to fight back...
"Fine, you’ve got a point, satisfied now..."
Gu Tong surrendered, deciding she could always run away if she couldn’t fight, though she begrudged it inside and was unwilling to let Qiu Xue off easily, she had to accept reality...
She cared more about her Young Master, her husband...
Li Yan laughed at her resigned expression, a rare smile that was not cold appeared on his face, sweeping away all the gloom, leaving only bright sunshine—
Gu Tong was mesmerized by his smile, something she had never seen in her past life, something she cherished very much in this life.
She stared blankly at him for a moment, and even before she could react, she heard Li Yan’s lazy voice, "It’s wrong to manipulate people, how could such a kind lady like you scheme against others."
"..." This was her only ace, and it’s not allowed, is it?
"So, leave such dirty work to your husband!"
Li Yan added, but this time, Gu Tong was completely dumbfounded, she almost thought she was hearing things, incredulously asking, "What?"
"Of course, your husband also has principles, and won’t aid and abet madam’s misdeeds! I’ll just add some fuel to the plan you made, whether she falls for it or not will depend on her own skills!"
Gu Tong almost wanted to swear...
She didn’t need to think to know what Li Yan’s adding fuel meant, surely giving Qiu Xue the illusion in a roundabout way, making her think Li Yan had a change of heart! And then it would escalate, becoming more blatant!
This move of adding fuel to the fire is absolutely invincible and undefeatable...
Even if Qiu Xue is invincible, she can’t resist such temptation...
Thinking about the heartache things Qiu Xue had done for Li Yan in the past, Gu Tong could already confirm that!
Nothing in this world could defeat Qiu Xue more effectively than Li Yan...
So, she will definitely take the bait...
Gu Tong’s mind was filled with thoughts, but inside she was equally turbulent, she had never thought that the righteously dignified Devil King would one day plot against others because of her.
