If it were not for his prominent Adam’s Apple, Gu Ruoyun would have taken him for a woman.
He was too bewitching!
It was a shame that a person like this should be a man. If it were not so, one could make a fortune by selling this person to a brothel.
If Zuo Shangchen knew Gu Ruoyun’s thoughts, he would have had the urge to kill. This woman wanted to sell him to a brothel? Which brothel would dare to take him?
“Zuo Shangchen, why aren’t you acting as the Fourth Prince of Vermillion Bird Country? What are you doing here?” Leng Yanfeng’s eyes darkened slightly as he said coldly, “And my actions are none of your business!”
“What does Your Royal Highness mean? Do I need your permission to go anywhere?” Zuo Shangchen gave a smile that could topple countries, then threw a wink at Gu Ruoyun. “Woman, Leng Yanfeng’s standards are a bit odd. He wouldn’t have taken a liking towards the fake and disgusting Shi Yun otherwise. Don’t follow him. Why don’t you follow me? I guarantee that you can dine on the finest foods and sip on the finest drinks!”
Gu Ruoyun looked at Zuo Shangchen. “I’m sorry. I have no interest in a man who looks like a woman. The way I see it, you’re more suited to be in love with a man and I won’t be the third wheel.”
In an instant, the handmaidens around him all looked at Gu Ruoyun with sympathy.
His Majesty’s biggest taboo was for people to say that he looked like a woman. Once, there was a person who jested about him so, and in the end, he was cut into pieces on the spot. From then on, nobody dared to say such words ever again.
However, Zuo Shangchen took a deep breath. He suppressed his inner anger and smiled benevolently. “Woman, I am trying to help you.”
If she were not Gu Shengxiao’s little sister, she would have died a hundred and eight thousand times just because of what she said just now. She was lucky to have a genius for a brother. If he had so much as touch a hair of that man’s little sister, that man would have rushed back immediately to cut him down.
“I’m sorry, I don’t know you, and I don’t need your help,” Gu Ruoyun touched the tip of her nose and said in an indifferent tone.
Zuo Shangchen was stunned. Was this woman truly the cute and gentle little sister as described by Gu Shengxiao? Which part of her was cute? Which part of her was gentle? She clearly was a person who was hard to approach.
Of course, what Zuo Shangchen did not know was that in every brother’s eyes, their little sisters were all cute and kind, especially in the case of Gu Shengxiao who had a sister complex…
When he thought about Gu Shengxiao’s expression when describing this girl, Zuo Shangchen could not help but laugh hysterically and shook his head. “Woman, you are truly a little porcupine. Your whole body is covered with sharp spines, making it hard for others to approach you. I am no bad person, you don’t have to be so guarded with me.”
Gu Ruoyun scanned Zuo Shangchen, her clear eyes sensing some peculiarity. “Is that so? Then, why do I see ‘I’m a bad person’ written all over your body?”
Zuo Shangchen was immediately silenced. Which part of him resembled a bad person?

The exchange between the two as if no one else were there had utterly angered Leng Yanfeng. However, no matter how angry he was, his handsome face still maintained its usual coldness.
“Zuo Shangchen, Gu Ruoyun has always admired me. This is common knowledge. Then, let me fulfill her wish, giving her a name and a night’s cuddle. I am being fair to her, so you don’t have to meddle.”
Zuo Shangchen’s smile gradually waned, his eyes showing scorn. Gu Shengxiao’s beloved little sister was only fit to be named Crown Prince’s concubine? If she had only asked, that man would have torn down the whole world to give it to her as a present.
This Leng Yanfeng was, at most, a disciple of the Weapon Refining Sect. He was too full of himself…
Gu Shengxiao’s true identity was only known by Shi Yun and a few core elders in the Weapon Refining Sect. Leng Yanfeng would never have known about all this. Or else, he would not have said those words…
