Zhi Wang’s residence was in the capital city, and this was the former governor’s residence. The hall was spacious, and Yun Zhi seemed quite satisfied. Most importantly, he was going to use this woman today to strike a blow against that man who had been obsessed with Qing Chu yet abandoned her.
Yun Zhi remembered the past scenes and gritted his teeth. Gu Qingtong sat beside him, and he lifted her chin, looking at her for a while. She was somewhat similar, yet not quite the same. But Yun Qian seemed to know her, and that was enough. He sneered and released her, with a hint of disgust.
Gu Qingtong knew she couldn’t escape and couldn’t rely on anyone else, but she wasn’t particularly discouraged.
Soon, Yun Qian arrived, and the military general who had received his invitation did not come, as he had done many outrageous things in Lan Ka City.
Yun Shan was too lazy to intervene, thinking that as brothers, they wouldn’t actually kill each other. The hall now contained only him, Yun Qian, and this woman.
Yun Zhi kept observing Gu Qingtong and Yun Qian’s expressions. The woman showed little reaction, but the worry in Yun Qian’s eyes was hard to ignore. This woman had a much greater impact than Qing Chu.
Gu Qingtong had seen Yun Qian before, but this conflicted and uneasy expression was new to her.
Yun Qian knew that anything he said would provoke Yun Zhi and potentially harm him, so he remained silent, slowly sipping the clear wine.
Yun Zhi chuckled and said nothing, drinking in sync with Yun Qian.
Gu Qingtong watched the two drinking, the atmosphere strange and their expressions odd. Suddenly, Yun Zhi fell onto her, immobilizing her. She glared at Yun Qian.
Yun Qian smiled faintly, pushing Yun Zhi aside onto the ground, and picked up Gu Qingtong: “Qing Qing, I didn’t expect to meet you like this.”
With the border war ongoing, no one had time to mess with Zhi Wang, and the governor’s residence was understaffed. Yun Qian carried her out as if no one was around.
Even the two maids who noticed something unusual didn’t dare to stop him, instead going to check on Zhi Wang, only to find him already unconscious.
