After the prince was reborn, he forced me to marry him and took me into the East Palace

Gu Jingheng chuckled and untied the scarf around Nan Yuan's neck, revealing the red marks on it.

Nan Yuan's skin is delicate, and a little force would normally leave deep marks, not to mention that Gu Jingheng really had the intention to kill at that time.

"Are you scared?" His fingers stroked Nan Yuan's delicate skin.

Nan Yuan felt uncomfortable all over, but she didn't dare to struggle or resist, so she could only bite the bullet and change the subject: "I can do it myself."

Gu Jingheng pretended not to hear and evenly rubbed the ointment in his hand on the wound on Nan Yuan's neck.

Nan Yuan looked at Gu Jingheng's slender, jade-white fingers, which were dipped in the ointment and rubbed on her neck bit by bit. His fingertips were warm and soft, as if they could penetrate into her skin.

She felt that she had never understood Gu Jingheng, and didn't know what he was trying to do.

He may be extremely gentle to me now, but he may want to kill me the next moment. He is just like a madman, no, he is a madman!

"Okay, the ointment has been applied. The scars will fade away tomorrow." Gu Jingheng stuffed the ointment into Nan Yuan's hand and suddenly asked, "What's so good about Xie Luochen?"

Nan Yuan looked at Gu Jingheng, with a complex look in her eyes.

He had investigated his entire situation in just half an hour?

"Break off the engagement with him and follow me, okay?" Gu Jingheng's eyes were burning.

Follow him, agree to him. As long as she nods, he will pretend that nothing happened today. He will still give her a status and treat her well, just like in the previous life. How wonderful.

"not good."

Nan Yuan answered decisively and rejected without any hesitation.

Gu Jingheng's fingers paused and his expression changed slightly.

He thought he hadn't explained it clearly, so he broke down his words and told her, "Following me won't be worse than following Xie Luochen. What Xie Luochen can give you, I can give you a thousand times better; what Xie Luochen can't give you, I can also give you."

"Just like today when you were bullied, Xie Luochen was a nobody and could not protect you at all. But it's different for me. With me here, no one dares to bully you."

Gu Jingheng thought he had made it clear enough. If Nan Yuan had any common sense, she would know who to follow.

But who would have thought——

"Not good." Nan Yuan said softly the most hurtful words.

The air suddenly became quiet.

Gu Jingheng looked away, watching the fluttering curtains and the ripples on the calm lake. His heart ached, and the kite in his hand was about to fly away.

She used to be the one who stuck to him the most. Whenever he went out for work for a few days, she would make a fuss to follow him. How did she become like this now?

He suddenly looked down at her. Nan Yuan was right in front of him, but he felt that she was very far away from him, as if there was an invisible barrier between them.

Gu Jingheng closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a moment, he softened his voice and said, "I was wrong just now. I went too far."

Nan Yuan raised her head in a daze, her eyes full of confusion. Is this still the Gu Jingheng she knew?

Could it be that it has been possessed by some dirty creature?

Seeing Nan Yuan's reaction, the corners of Gu Jingheng's mouth twitched slightly. It turned out that his little kite was still used to this beast in human clothing.

Remembering the previous life, the same time, the same place, the same lotus pond, when he was in the mood, he wanted to pull her to make love in the depths of the lotus pond.

At that time, she had never done such a ridiculous thing. She bit her lip and shook her head.

"Really, it was just my wishful thinking. Little Kite has never fallen in love with me." He said self-deprecatingly.

She was anxious, shaking her head, stammering and unable to say anything, she just kept saying, "No, it's not like that... I didn't..."

He pulled her into his arms and asked carefully, "Nothing? You're not in love with me?"

She was so anxious that she was about to cry. Finally, she thought of an idea. She climbed up to his neck and kissed him actively.

He did not refuse and let her kiss him, but she was not experienced enough and got confused after a few kisses. Gu Jingheng grabbed her naughty little hand and placed it on his lips and pecked it lightly, his pair of black eyes as deep as the sea.

Starting from her hands and moving upwards little by little, her cheeks flushed with shame and she didn't dare to look him in the eye.

But he didn't intend to let her go. He rubbed her lips with his fingertips and whispered, "I like to take the initiative. This way, I will be happier."

Her face was so red that it seemed like blood was about to drip out, but she still followed his wishes and followed his heart.

The lonely boat stayed in the deep water of the lotus pond for an entire afternoon.

Today, it should be the same.

His thoughts gradually dissipated, and Gu Jingheng stared at Nan Yuan's eyes.

"I know I went too far, so it's normal that you don't like it. I promise you that from now on, I will never lay a hand on you again."

The height difference between men and women made her completely embraced in his arms. His voice was gentle, but with unquestionable strength.

Nan Yuan's whole body was tense and stiff.

She didn't know what he wanted to do, but she knew that this posture made her extremely uncomfortable. However, she didn't dare to resist easily. She was afraid that if she didn't meet his wishes in the slightest, he would go crazy.

Gu Jingheng's big hand stroked Nan Yuan's back, forcing her to raise her neck. He looked carefully at the marks of pinching, rubbing them with his fingertips, and there was an imperceptible sigh in his deep voice.

Nan Yuan's breathing stagnated. His eyes fell on her, as if he wanted her to be naked.

Her face flushed red, and she pushed Gu Jingheng without thinking: "You... let me go!"

Seeing that she couldn't push Gu Jingheng away, Nan Yuan reached out to touch the hairpin in her hair, but this time it was not as smooth as last time.

Before she touched the hairpin, Gu Jingheng held her hand.

Gu Jingheng looked at Nan Yuan's hand, his eyes darkened a little: "It's just to let me stay away from you, there's no need to threaten me with death."

Having said that, Gu Jingheng let go of his hand and took a few steps back.

Nan Yuan really couldn't understand what Gu Jingheng wanted to do, so she simply didn't bother to guess.

"Please give yourself a favor, Your Highness." Nan Yuan's eyes fell on the clothes on the table. She needed to change clothes now, so she asked Gu Jingheng to have some self-awareness and leave here.

Gu Jingheng looked at Nan Yuan, his thin lips curled into a cold arc.

His eyes fell on Nan Yuan's body, and when he saw the coat Nan Yuan was wearing, his brows furrowed even more tightly.

It's really an eyesore, I'd better change it.

"There is an inner room inside." Gu Jingheng said.

Nan Yuan looked in the direction Gu Jingheng had directed, and indeed, she saw a door.

She picked up her clothes and walked over there without even glancing at Gu Jingheng, being very heartless.

Gu Jingheng just shook his head slightly, but he had a bad temper.
