Gu Ruoyun flashed a smile at her defeated expression.
He waved his hand and dismissed the crowd.
Su Yan reluctantly took one last look at the lotus pod in his hand and asked, "What have you been busy with recently? I haven't seen you properly in two months. Tell me, what have you been up to?"
Gu Ruoyun's expression darkened and said, "You'll find out tonight."
Su Yan was unhappy with him for keeping her in suspense and was anxious to find out. She had tried all kinds of threats and enticements but he had not relented.
In the end, she had even tried to use a honey trap, but it still did not work.
Su Yan lay gloomily on the small bed because Gu Ruoyun had disappeared again.
She sighed.
Chu Tao, who had just entered, heard her. She smiled and asked, "Princess Consort, why are you sighing again?"
Su Yan did not hide the truth from her and asked, "What did Gu Ruoyun do behind my back?"
