The crowd automatically parted, revealing the figure of the person speaking.
Seeing the woman standing at the end of the pa.s.sage, both Yuan Jincai and Xun Yixuan couldn’t help but show amazement in their eyes.
They both came from n.o.ble families and were accustomed to seeing beautiful women. In Qiankun Academy, they had seen their fair share of stunning individuals.
For instance, their junior sister, Lingxue, not only possessed exquisite beauty but also an otherworldly temperament.
However, when compared to the woman before them, those other women seemed to pale in comparison.
As they watched her approach through the crowd, their hearts uncontrollably raced.
As the stunning woman drew nearer, her allure grew even more enchanting. Her fair skin was flawless, resembling pristine white jade or fresh snow, radiantly clear and luminous.
Her facial features were like a work of art, and her lips had a captivating hue.
Yet, her demeanor exuded an aura of n.o.bility and aloofness, making it impossible for anyone to disrespect her.
Both men instinctively lowered their gazes, unable to meet her eyes directly.
However, they couldn’t help but sneak another glance at her.
“Who…who are you?” Xun Yixuan stammered, his face slightly flushed. “Miss, you may not know, but these two men earlier…they spoke disrespectfully and maliciously slandered Second Lady Gu. We, as fellow senior martial brothers, couldn’t bear to witness it, so we intervened to teach them a lesson.”
While Yuan Jincai wasn’t as fl.u.s.tered as Xun Yixuan, he was still captivated by the woman’s beauty. He straightened his posture, trying to display his imposing presence before the beauty.
The chubby tea customer who had just been saved hurriedly bowed to the woman and said, “Thank you, miss, for saving our lives. Please don’t listen to their nonsense. We were simply enjoying tea and chatting when these two suddenly appeared, smashing our table and even injuring someone. It was completely unreasonable!”
Xun Yixuan, upon hearing the chubby man speak ill of him in front of the beauty, shot him a cold and subtly threatening look.
The chubby man didn’t seem to mind and earnestly looked at the woman, saying, “I wonder if I could have the pleasure of knowing your name, miss? It’s a way to express our grat.i.tude for saving us.”
The onlookers couldn’t help but silently criticize the chubby man.
This guy was quite shrewd! He actually knew how to take advantage of the situation! He’s already striking up a conversation with the beauty.
Xun Yixuan and the others shared a similar thought, considering the chubby man to be cunning, as he tried to get to know the beauty through this opportunity.
However, Xun Yixuan was also curious about the woman’s name.
To think that Tianjing City had such a stunning beauty; they had never heard of it before.
Wasn’t it said that Junior Sister Lingxue was the most beautiful woman in Tianjing City?
The stunning woman who dazzled the entire crowd was none other than Gu Qingluan, who had come out with the intention of luring Yin Qing.
Normally, Gu Qingluan wouldn’t intervene in such disputes.
However, when she faintly heard these two young men mentioning “Junior Sister Lingxue” and coupled it with their argument, she probably guessed their ident.i.ties.
So, she had to step in.
She observed everyone’s expressions and then slightly raised her graceful crimson lips.
Everyone immediately gazed at her with infatuation.
“My surname is Gu, and my name is Qingluan.”
“I see. Miss Gu, I’m Shen Fulue,” the chubby man replied with a beaming smile.
Just as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly froze, and he stared at Gu Qingluan in a daze. “You…you are Gu Qingluan? The young lady of the Gu family?”
“You’re Gu Qingluan? That’s impossible! How could you be that infamous woman!”
Xun Yixuan was even more incredulous.
Yuan Jincai also stared at Gu Qingluan in disbelief.
They had just been mesmerized by this woman, only to find out that she was the woman they had always looked down upon?
How was that possible?
Wasn’t Gu Qingluan supposed to be Junior Sister Lingxue’s sister? Moreover, she had become pregnant before marriage.. How could she appear younger than Junior Sister Lingxue?
