Cannon fodder She is targeted by yanderes in every dimension

Chapter 515 The Gloomy Boy and the Crybaby Miss 18

*

What rope? What is it that is tied to something?

Yun Wu was forced to lean her head back in his arms and blinked twice in confusion.

She realized it later, maybe it was because she said Gu Xingran was "taking advantage of others' power"...

Did he take it seriously?

Gu Xingran held her like this, his embrace was very warm, Yun Wu felt her cheeks getting hot.

It was quiet all around, and Gu Xingran leaned on her neck and seemed to be in a good mood.

It was Yun Wu who first broke the silence.

"Yesterday at the Princess's Mansion... I haven't thanked you for helping me..."

"If she hurts you in the slightest, I will never forgive her."

Gu Xingran's dull voice came to her ears. Yun Wu wanted to say something but didn't.

Because she knew that this was something Gu Xingran could do. She still remembered that when he was in Pingzhou City, he beat up a lot of people behind their backs.

At that time, people around him said behind his back that he was crazy, and only the young lady from the Yun family could control him.

So Yun Wu felt that if she had not been there at the time, there would have been bloodshed at the banquet that day.

Now that the emperor has issued the decree to grant the marriage, Yun Wu did not resist in that way.

Anyway, she will get married sooner or later, and it seems that marrying Gu Xingran would be a good idea... and she is not that resistant to him.

But Yun Wu still hasn’t figured out what kind of feelings she has for Gu Xingran.

She avoided the question and didn't want to delve into it further, and was too lazy to think about it. She raised her hand and patted Gu Xingran's shoulder.

"Okay, okay, it's getting dark, you should go back..."

Gu Xingran already has a place to live, a mansion that is much larger than the Yun Mansion. The Emperor had it prepared before he returned to Beijing.

When Gu Xingran left, he looked back every few steps, as if he would never see him again tomorrow.

Only after seeing Gu Xingran leave with her own eyes did Yun Wu return to her boudoir.

As soon as the door closed, the calm and composed expression on her face fell and her rosy almond-shaped eyes widened slightly.

"Gu Xingran and I have made an engagement..."

Yun Wu muttered to herself, and the calmness she had just shown in front of Yun's father and Gu Xingran disappeared completely.

She plopped down on her bed, covered with soft bedding.

In other words, the current situation between her and Gu Xingran is just like that between Lin Jingyun and Jiang Yin, except that they had already decided on their marriage half a year ago.

The next top priority was the celebration banquet held by the Duke's Mansion. It was said that it was to celebrate the victory at the border, and invited prominent people in the capital and soldiers who had made military achievements and were rewarded.

Originally, Yun Wu was just the daughter of an imperial merchant, but because of the emperor's decree granting her marriage, her identity suddenly became different.

Yun's father and the others seemed to attach great importance to Yun Wu's attendance at the banquet. After all, the story between her and Gu Xingran was widely circulated in the capital.

This is her first appearance after the marriage was granted, so we must be well prepared.

Yun's father, who had always been a stingy person, spent a lot of money to hire an embroiderer to make a set of exquisitely crafted clothes for Yun Wu overnight.

He also secretly paid someone to change the content of the story that is now circulating, and even changed his role as the "breaking up the couple".

The Duke's Mansion was extremely lively on the day of the banquet, with many people coming in and out. The elders from each family were all in another main hall, and the banquet in the outer hall was attended by young people.

Before Gu Xingran arrived, Yun Wu became the person that everyone rushed to approach and chat with.

She was wearing a beautifully crafted dress, the pearl hairpin on her head was exquisite, and even the color of the rouge on her face was just right.

It's just that Yun Wu was woken up by Caiwei early in the morning to get herself ready, so she was a little sleepy now, but she still had to cheer up and deal with those who came forward to congratulate her.

"General Gu is here!"

Following the announcement from the servant outside, everyone at the banquet looked over there.

Yun Wu suddenly woke up from her sleepiness. Everyone around her bowed one after another. Yun Wu hesitated and was about to bow to greet them as well.

Gu Xingran suddenly walked past everyone and sat down on the seat next to Yun Wu. He turned around and looked at the people around him and said:

"Today, the Duke of Zhenguo is hosting a banquet to celebrate the victory at the border. You don't need to be polite."

The surroundings had returned to the noisy and bustling atmosphere, but many people were still looking at Gu Xingran's Yun Wu.

Yun Wu was still somewhat uncomfortable with the sight of others, so she moved to the side, allowing Gu Xingran to completely block her.

"Something happened in the military camp and delayed me for some time. I am a little late."

Gu Xingran's voice was deep, and under the table, his broad, slender hand held Yun Wu's hand.

"Now everyone in the capital knows that I am your fiancé..."

His dark eyes were fixed on her, and there seemed to be a hint of...coquettishness in his expression?

Although Gu Xingran was holding her hand under the table, Yun Wu always felt that someone would see them, which was really inappropriate.

Her ears turned slightly red as she pulled her hand away, then pretended to pick up the pastries on the table and ate them.

"My father had me woken up early in the morning to get dressed. I didn't even have breakfast..."

Yun Wu muttered softly, took a bite of the sweet pastry, and looked at Gu Xingran with a bit of resentment in her eyes.

If he hadn't insisted that she come with him to the party, she would definitely still be taking a nap in her boudoir.

But Gu Xingran is so clingy that he needs her to follow him wherever he goes. He is more dependent on her than he was a year ago.

When Gu Xingran heard that she hadn't even had breakfast, he became nervous and quickly ordered the servant to bring some dishes.

The banquet has not started yet. Occasionally, someone would come to chat with Gu Xingran, but Gu Xingran politely declined them all.

Yun Wu stopped eating when she was half full, and Gu Xingran stood up immediately.

"There are too many people here. I'll take you to the waterside corridor outside."

As Gu Xingran spoke, his eyes swept over a few young men not far away. He couldn't help but frowned when he saw the way they looked at Yun Wu.

Yun Wu didn’t care where she went, so she stood up from her seat and walked around.

But something unexpected happened soon, just when the servant announced that "Minister Yan's daughter has arrived."

A strange woman in fancy clothes ran in in a hurry, looking completely rude.

She seemed to be here to find Gu Xingran, and walked quickly in front of Gu Xingran.

Yun Wu was startled. She didn’t know the person who suddenly broke in front of her. She just felt that the look in this woman’s eyes when she looked at her seemed... particularly angry?

"Isn't this Miss Yan Ruo from the Shangshu Mansion?"

Someone nearby said this, and the others also looked over.

On the day when the border army returned to the capital, Yan Ruo deliberately claimed to be sick and did not attend the princess's banquet. Instead, she waited at the city gate. As a result, she waited for a long time but Gu Xingran did not show up.

Then she heard the news that Gu Xingran was engaged to a woman, and she was stunned.

Yan Ru looked at Yun Wu. She gritted her teeth secretly, a righteous look appeared on her face, and she said sternly:

"My lady, you just took General Gu in for a while. How can you use this to force him to get married with you? You are going too far!"
