Chapter 11: Believe In the Young Lord. Decent Self-Delusions
Su Qingge in actuality had deeply consider the matter before she said it.
She was a very smart woman.
The other soul of hers had its own wisdom too. It helped her a lot with planning and coming up with ideas.
Gu Changgeās majesty was just too heavy. Sometimes, heās just completely cold, gazing down on all.
Yet, sometimes, it feels like heās toying around with the world. It made him really unpredictable.
He wasnāt like Ye Chen, who was pure like a blank slate.
But that was the reason why Su Qingge was so nervous.
It canāt be helped. The only thing she could do was display her sincerity.
Nine Yin Mystic Concubine Body. If it was exposed that she had a body so perfect for being made a cauldron.
She would definitely become targeted by a lot of old monsters.
For her to tell Gu Changge such a thing was basically a guarantee that she would not dare to have any disloyal thoughts toward him.
Su Qingge knows that with Gu Changgeās capabilities, he would definitely understand her intentions.
Thus, now she needs to observe just what how Gu Changge would react to all this.
āNine Yin Mystic Concubine Body. Thatās a perfect constitution as a cauldron. You actually just revealed it to me just like that?ā
Gu Changgeās voice was steady, not revealing any of his actual feelings.
Su Qingge lowered her head and spoke softly, āI believe in the young lord as a person.ā
Those words were merely polite talk.
Is Gu Changge really such an upright person?
He hides his thoughts deeply and is hard to predict. Heās more like a villain than anything else.
At the very least, she couldnāt tell what heās actually like as a person.
āWhat insincere words.ā
Gu Changge let out a laugh.
Su Qingge pursed her lips and didnāt respond.
Gu Changge gave her a glance.
A lovely and admirable heroine was standing before him like that.
Her features were delicate and well formed.
Her eyes were like the streams in autumn, her brows beautiful as the mountains.
Her dark hair perfectly framed her face, which was pale and smooth, glistening with a light that captures the heart.
And there was a hint of nervousness to her countenance.
Truth be told, itās not like heās Liu Xiahui. (T/N: Reference to Zhan Huo, ancient Chinese official famed for his virtue)
Facing the Su Qinggeās situation, he didnāt try to help or force her.
Everything happened by her own free choice.
āSystem, what about this situation where sheās giving herself to me? Would there be fortune backlash if I were to eat her up now?ā
Of course, Gu Changge will still consult the system first.
Out of everything in the world, itās his own life thatās the most important here.
So long as it doesnāt endanger his own life, he wouldnāt care one bit just what Su Qinggeās really thinking.
Only the protagonist worry over feelings.
Heās the villain, so of course heās going the physical route.
He wanted to take her forcibly before, but he was afraid of the fortune backlash.
But now sheās the one whoās handing herself over.
āBased on the heroineās current fortune value, she has not truly submitted to the master yet. Any relation right now has a high likelihood of causing a fortune backlash.ā
Fine. He should have expected this.
Shitty world. Worthless fortune.
In the far east, a certain divine crab monster was watching and waiting. (T/N: Reference to Baidu internet meme)
Things were within Gu Changgeās expectations.
Of course, he didnāt show the slightest change in his expressions and continued to speak indifferently, āI shall pretend that I didnāt hear anything about the Nine Yin Mystic Concubine Body today. If Holy Maiden Qingge wanted to use that to tempt me, Iāll ask you to leave instead.ā
āMiss. Please have some self respect.ā
His countenance showed a mix of indifference and a dismissive attitude of āmy focus is on cultivation. Women or whatever can get lostā.
At this moment, Gu Changge was somewhat in awe of his own acting skills.
If the system had itās own thoughts and will.
It would definitely be loudly insulting Gu Changgeās shamelessness right now.
Just who was is lusting after the girlās body just now?
Those words had stunned Su Qingge for a moment. Her beautiful was was contorted into an expression of shock.
She had actually already prepared herself for the worst when she came over today.
But that was something that couldnāt be helped.
However, Gu Changgeās words had completely flabbergasted her.
Of course, more of her was relieved.
āThis Gu Changge really is hard to figure out, I canāt guess at what heās thinking at allā¦ā
At this moment, the other soul in her body spoke up with the exact same thought as herself.
āLord Gu did not take advantage of my weakness. It looks like Iāve been wrong in thinking badly of himā¦ā
āIn this case, Iām the one who was small minded.ā
After she made her farewell from the hall, Su Qingge silently thought that to herself.
Her whole mood had for some reason become much brighter.
It wasnāt dead and gloomy like she was before.
Thinking on the whole matter carefully, Lord Gu didnāt seem to have done anything wrong that day in the main hall, right?
The night she went to his place, he didnāt bother her at all. In fact, he didnāt even care to notice her.
Wasnāt it normal for him t be shrewd and subtle?
Itās not like her own actions normally are any different.
When she thought of that, Su Qingge suddenly felt somewhat guilty.
Just why did she jump to conclusions and think of Gu Changge as a bad person before?
āDing! Su Qinggeās opinions have change. 20 Fortune Value gained. 100 Fate Points gained.
In Gu Changgeās mind, system message pinged.
When he heard those notifications, he kind of lacked the words to describe his thoughts.
Was Su Qingge deluding herself right now? Conquering herself for me?
But overthinking things into misunderstanding worked too.
That said, he never imagined that the method to increase his own Fortune Value layed with the heroine.
He really did earn a heck of a lot of Fate Points with what he did this day.
All together, he had earned a total of 700 Fate points.
Ye Chenās own Fortune Value had dropped to about 300 points.
For this Child of Fortune, he definitely lost a major pound of flesh this day.
Gu Changge was in quite a good mood.
He didnāt hurry in using those 700 Fate Points either. He decided to save it up until the system shop was unlocked and see whatās in there.
Although he wasnāt lacking in powerful techniques.
Itās not like heād reject even more powerful techniques.
Plus, now that heās finished his preparations, itās about time he started going after Ye Chenās master.
