Chapter 1042: Gu Yiyi is Snappy IHearing this, Gu Yiyi"s heart sank. Sure enough, Gu Yiyi wanted to leave this place, but she did not want to put You Lan into trouble.
After pondering for a while, Gu Yiyi shook her head.
“You Lan, I will find my own way out. Don"t tell him about this, although he already knows this.”
“Yiyi, I told you that I will help you. I will keep my words! I am his sister, he can"t do anything to me. You are my friend, I can"t bear to see you suffer,” You Lan said with smiling eyes.
Gu Yiyi"s heart skipped a beat, she looked up at the young lady before her as she said earnestly, “You Lan, honestly, I have never considered you to be my good friend before this.”
You Lan was rendered speechless. The truth in Gu Yiyi"s words stung.
“I got close to you because you are a princess. The person I love is also a princess. Now, I have found the similarity between both of you—fierce loyalty.” Gu Yiyi patted You Lan"s shoulder and continued saying.
You Lan"s hand stroked her chest. Gu Yiyi"s words p.r.i.c.ked even deeper into You Lan"s heart. You Lan had always been treating Gu Yiyi her good friend, but it turned out that You Lan was merely a backup.
“Don"t worry. If there is a chance, I will come back together with her. I know you don"t like this place and have always wanted to get out of here. Xiao Qing is really something. She can get you out of here.”
Hearing this, You Lan"s eyes lit up, curving into a crescent moon as she broke into a bright smile.
“Alright, I will wait for you to come back. However, my eldest brother has been around in the palace a lot lately. When he goes out, I will get a chance to take you out of here.”
“Okay.” Gu Yiyi nodded solemnly. At this moment, she really saw You Lan as her friend, not a backup.
Just as You Lan wanted to say something, Gu Yiyi tugged at You Lan"s hand.
Stunned, You Lan raised her head only to see Zheng Tuanwu walking toward them from not far away.
With a smiling face, he walked toward them with both hands on his back. He was so different from his domineering and vicious look in the marquis manor. Currently, he looked like a wolf in sheep"s clothing, irritating!
“Your Highness, I heard that you have had some conflicts with Gong"er recently. Has Gong"er done anything wrong and offended you?”
“Marquis Zheng must have misunderstood me. I am not feeling well. Hence, I didn"t want to see anyone these few days.” You Lan"s face changed as she said blandly.
A glimmer of light flashed in Zheng Tuanwu"s eyes. He subconsciously glanced at Gu Yiyi who was standing aside.
“Your Highness looks ruddy and healthy. You don"t seem to have any health issues. Moreover, you said that you don"t want to meet anyone. You are meeting this lady, aren"t you?”
Hearing this, a burning rage swept over Gu Yiyi. How dare this b.a.s.t.a.r.d humiliate her! When Gu Yiyi was still in Tian Shen Manor, simply no one dared to say that she was not a human.
“Marquis Zheng, Yiyi is an honorable guest that my eldest brother has brought back to the palace. She is one of us. I believe that you are in no position to say anything about her,” You Lan said nonchalantly before Gu Yiyi could explode in anger.
Currently, vigor and delicate trickled out of You Lan, calm and elegance took its place.
“Your Highness, I didn"t mean to do that. Gong"er misses you so badly. So, please…” Zheng Tianwu"s face darkened, the corner of his lips curved into a smile.
You Lan laughed in exasperation.
“Zheng Tianwu, do you think I am a prost.i.tute from the brothel and would meet whoever comes into the brothel? Why must I meet Young Marquis Zheng just because he misses me? Why don"t you ask him what he has done to me?”
