The sun was shining brightly outside the tent, but Nan Yuan felt freezing cold.

Gu Jingheng's words echoed in her ears, like a thunderbolt, striking her heart hard.

She didn't believe that he was really that cruel.

Were the betrothal gifts and the formal marriage he mentioned just an excuse to use her to clear away the obstacles he mentioned?

Nan Yuan covered her mouth tightly. She was afraid that she would cry and that she would not be able to help but question him.

Didn't he say he loved her?

Didn't he say that he would stay with her forever and spend his life with her no matter what happened?

How could he do this to her?

Nan Yuan didn’t know how many secrets he was hiding from her, and what exactly did he want to do with her?

Gu Jingheng in the account glanced coldly at Shen Zhaixing and Chu Zhixu opposite him.

"You guys can believe the tricks used to deceive women? You've been with me for such a long time, don't you know who I am?"

"Shen Zhaixing, don't you understand what kind of person I am?" Gu Jingheng looked at Shen Zhaixing with a cold gaze.

Shen Zhaixing was stunned, paused, and nodded: "Of course I know what kind of person you are! But...but isn't it true that you came back to save Nan Yuan?"

Even though he knew that he was in such danger, Gu Jingheng still left him aside and went to save Nan Yuan!

"Do you really think I came back just to save Nan Yuan?" Gu Jingheng sneered and said, "You are wrong. I came back so that you can be independent. If I were by your side, do you dare to say that you would ask me to solve your problems as soon as you encounter them?"

"After I left, I gave you the jade pendant and key for deploying troops, but you didn't even know how to use them. If I were still there, you would probably just go through the motions and leave all the problems to me to deal with."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhaixing lowered his head.

It’s no wonder that Gu Jingheng said that. He really didn’t want to do anything before. Especially when Gu Jingheng was around, he was too lazy to even use his brain.

Since childhood, Gu Jingheng has been much stronger than him, and he has long been accustomed to letting Gu Jingheng solve any problems.

But it’s different now. He has changed and he will study hard.

"The reason why I returned to the military camp is, first, to make you realize what a battlefield is, and second, to investigate the military situation."

"Do you really think I will give such an important matter as the Black Armor Army to you and Nan Jiamu? This world is my world, and the Black Armor Army is also my Black Armor Army. Everything should be in my hands. Saving Nan Yuan is just a matter of convenience."

Gu Jingheng clenched his hands, yes, that's it.

Nan Yuan doesn't care about him, and he doesn't care about Nan Yuan either. These are all just strategies. Who will fall in love first?

"Breaking legs and severing tendons are just cruel tactics. As for jumping off the cliff, if that idiot Nan Yuan hadn't acted so quickly, and if I hadn't been unable to move at that time, how could I have followed her to jump off the cliff? Did I raise those secret guards in vain? They would naturally show up when I was in danger."

Gu Jingheng put his hand on his leg. He had always been cruel to others and equally cold-blooded to himself.

"Don't say that there is nothing wrong with my hands and feet. Even if they are really disabled, it is worth it to exchange a pair of legs for a person who is loyal to me and willing to pave the way for my grand plan."

Nan Yuan outside the tent covered her mouth tightly, not daring to make any sound.

That's it!

Gu Jingheng was absolutely right, she was a fool, extremely stupid.

He was just playing around, but you started to feel sorry for him and came up with all kinds of excuses to justify him.

It's ridiculous, so ridiculous, Nanyuan, ah Nanyuan, how can you be so stupid?

Inside the account, Gu Jingheng's voice continued.

He looked at Chu Zhixu and said cruelly, "It's ok that Shen Zhaixing is stupid, but you can't see my intention?"

"Chu Zhixu, do you really not know why I helped Nan Yuan find her brother? Don't you know why I gave Nan Jiamu the tiger talisman?"

Gu Jingheng's voice was as cold as ice, which shocked both men slightly. Chu Zhixu's eyes flickered a few times.

Gu Jingheng continued, "Nan Jiamu is a pretty good swordsman. He helped me get rid of the Li family. So I took the opportunity to give him the tiger talisman."

"If he has any rebellious intentions, he will take the tiger talisman for himself. If he wants to establish his own regime like Li Mu, the fate of the Li family will be his."

"If he is knowledgeable and sensible, he will present the tiger talisman to me intact after entering the capital, and I will continue to respect him and let him be my sword."

After listening to it, Chu Zhixu's expression slowly returned to normal. He was not as stupid as Shen Zhaixing, so he would not believe the nonsense said by Gu Jingheng.

He stared at the drink in Gu Jingheng's glass and asked in a fatal tone, "You have a good plan, but will Nan Yuan do what you say? She is a person, not an object that can be moved wherever you want her to go."

It was a good plan, but was Gu Jingheng really so cold-hearted that he could even calculate his own heart?

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?

Even if you are with an object for a long time, can you really erase it from your life without hesitation?

Chu Zhixu didn't believe Gu Jingheng could do it.

It’s not that I don’t believe Gu Jingheng can do it, but I don’t believe anyone in this world can do it.

Gu Jingheng's fingers holding the wine glass turned pale. He gulped down a glass of wine and said, "She's just a woman. Just coax her and she'll be fine. That's how she's been these days. She does whatever I tell her to do."

Yes, isn’t that the case?

During this period, she did whatever Gu Jingheng asked her to do.

In front of everyone, she disregarded her girlish modesty, ran to his side every day, took care of him without taking off her clothes, and let him take advantage of her.

Even in front of her brother, she allowed him to hide her under the quilt and play with her, and even covered for him afterwards.

After finally realizing that something was wrong and that she had been wronged, she just cried a few times, and he comforted her with a few words and she let the matter go.

Nan Yuan, oh Nan Yuan, you belittle yourself, how can you expect others to respect you?

Nan Yuan didn't want to listen anymore. She didn't want to let her dignity and face be trampled on by others.

She turned around with her arms full of irises. The flowers were still blooming beautifully, but Nan Yuan no longer had the same mood as when she came here.

Seeing the iris now made her want to cry, but her eyes were dry and her throat was tight, so she couldn't even cry.

A gust of wind blew, and the petals swayed, making a rustling sound, and Nan Yuan's back was stretched out.

Nan Yuan hugged the flowers in her arms tightly and walked forward step by step. Gu Jingheng's words followed behind her like a spell.

"Crown Princess? How can her status be worthy of my Crown Princess? I just said it casually to coax her. Even if she gave it to her, what would it matter? It's her ability that she can keep the position."
