The assassin's princess is actually my aunt

Chapter 227 Sincere and Frank Gu Jingxuan

With a "creak..." sound, the half-closed door behind him was opened.

A slender figure walked out. Gu Jingxuan frowned slightly, but his expression was still calm.

"You heard it all. Siyuan is not as fragile as you think. Although she is gentle as water, she is also as strong as steel."

Leng Xinmo's face showed undisguised admiration for Qi Siyuan.

Gu Jingxuan withdrew his gaze from the courtyard gate and turned to Leng Xinmo.

"Xinmo, thank you so much this time, I never thought of hurting Siyuan.

But I don't know if this behavior will hurt her invisibly.

Not to mention Siyuan and Xuanxuan, who are close friends. Brother Tianchen and I have known each other for many years and are close friends.

Just take Siyuan herself, she is kind and weak, and she had just experienced the engagement and broken-off of her relationship with His Royal Highness Prince Yu.

Although I cannot deceive her, I am also worried that she will be unable to get over it.

If Siyuan takes it seriously and something happens to her because of me, I don’t know how to explain to Brother Tianchen.

I can’t get over it in my heart, and I’m afraid I’ll be condemned by it for the rest of my life.”

Leng Xinmo nodded. Gu Jingxuan was a kind-hearted man, so of course he would worry that Qi Siyuan would be hurt because of him.

But he is also very principled and will not make promises casually regarding matters of the heart.

"You did the right thing. If you don't like her but still lie to her, that would be the greatest harm to Siyuan."

Leng Xinmo said.

Gu Jingxuan sighed helplessly: "Yes, Xinmo, you are right.

Siyuan and I have known each other since childhood. This time, she traveled thousands of miles to Lianlu Pass for me.

I was really shocked and moved.

In my heart, she has always been a weak sister who needs care.

Compared to Xuanxuan's straightforwardness, Siyuan is more gentle.

I never thought she would...”

"Jingxuan? Do you really not like Siyuan?" Leng Xinmo suddenly asked.

"Of course..." Gu Jingxuan was at a loss for words. Don't you like it?

But if she wasn't moved at all, then why did Princess Mingyu confess her love to him?

He will feel disgusted and his body will instinctively resist.

When Siyuan expressed her feelings to him that day, he was shocked and panicked.

But there was not the slightest resistance.

But if he said he liked her, before this, he was sure that he had never thought of having any other feelings for Siyuan.

Gu Jingxuan thought, maybe it was because he felt fond of Siyuan like his own sister.

Gu Jingxuan smiled bitterly, no longer hesitating, withdrew his gaze from the courtyard gate, and bowed respectfully to Leng Xinmo.

Leng Xinmo was a little confused: "Jingxuan, you and I are close friends, there is no need to care about such empty formalities."

Gu Jingxuan shook his head: "Xinmo, I really thank you, Qi Shi told me that Siyuan almost got into trouble on the road.

If you hadn't rescued her, Siyuan's life would have been ruined.

By that time, I, Gu Jingxuan, will never be at peace even if it costs me my whole life.

This is one of them.”

Leng Xinmo curled the corners of his lips: "Jingxuan, you are too polite. Siyuan is also my good friend."

A flash of excitement flashed across Gu Jingxuan's cheerful face, and his eyes turned red:

“It’s not just about Siyuan, but also about what my father mentioned in his letter home a few days ago.

On the day when Prince Yi was plotting rebellion, in Yide Palace, the younger sister Xuanxuan acted rashly and was beaten by Prince Yi.

If you hadn't helped me, I would have... died in Yide Palace.

We, the Fuguogong Mansion, have accepted your life, and this is the second one."

Leng Xinmo did not refuse, even though Gu Xuanxuan was the same as Qi Siyuan.

She is one of the few women she can consider as her good friend.

But the Duke Gu's Mansion owes her a life, and it is only right.

Gu Jingxuan continued, "The third, and most important, is the danger in the western border this time.

It was precisely because of Prince Sheng and you, Xinmo, that the problem was resolved so quickly.

The Western Territory is stable, and the people have regained their peaceful days.

Gu Jingxuan, on behalf of the people of the Western Territory, thanks Xinmo for calming down the rebellion and saving his life."

Leng Xinmo looked at the handsome and resolute man in front of him.

Thinking back to the first time she saw him and heard his name, she had mistakenly thought that this man was like her, from another world!

Now it seems that her feeling at that time was not wrong.

Night Wolf is just like her, walking in darkness and afraid of the light.

How can he be as frank and sincere as Gu Jingxuan?

Leng Xinmo smiled and said, "Jingxuan, don't you think that I do this just for Prince Sheng?"

Gu Jingxuan was slightly startled, thinking of the beautiful story that was widely circulated in Lianlu Pass.

Princess Mingnuo traveled thousands of miles for Prince Sheng and killed the archer Mo Lai, just to avenge Prince Sheng.

In order to rescue King Sheng from his predicament, he fought a fierce battle with 3,000 archers from Xiqi outside Lianlu Pass!

Prince Sheng was furious and cut off the right hand of the Second Prince of Xiqi because he had injured Princess Mingnuo!

Prince Sheng and Princess Mingnuo are in love with each other and are a match made in heaven.

Gu Jingxuan found it a little funny that these rumors were not only not stopped but also spread so quickly.

It is not only spreading within Lianlu Pass, but is also spreading outside Lianlu Pass.

How could it be achieved without Prince Sheng's permission, or even with his instigation?

Gu Jingxuan looked at Leng Xinmo and replied seriously: “No matter who Xinmo is for.

It is undeniable that everything you did saved the day at Lianlu Pass.

What's more, I don't think that you are doing this just for Prince Sheng..."

Some people may seem extremely cold, but in fact, deep down they still have a sincere heart.
