Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1371 - 1369: Already Has an Intermediary

Wufu sat in the host’s seat, looking at Master Gui. He was still wearing his moon-white gauze robe, but his hair was tied with a purple jade crown, showing less of the free spirit of Jianghu people and adding more of the bearing of a noble family’s young master.

It was only then that Wufu remembered that she didn’t know much about Master Gui, not even his name, which she had learned just yesterday.

"Master Gui’s attire today is unusually formal. I wonder what brings you here today?" Wufu couldn’t figure out his intentions.

Master Gui smiled: "I’m here to see some elders, so of course I have to dress a bit more formally." He paused and added, "Are you saying one must have a reason to visit?"

Wufu sheepishly replied, "Isn’t it said, ’no trouble without reason’?"

Master Gui burst into laughter: "This Three Treasures Hall, I would visit even without a reason."

Hearing this, Wufu looked at him as if he were a monster. Wasn’t this man as aloof as an Exiled Immortal when they first met?

She stayed silent, and the atmosphere became a bit awkward. Master Gui took a sip of tea to hide his embarrassment and thought for a moment before saying, "I just came to see you."

This made it even more awkward, and Wufu’s gaze at him grew stranger.

Master Gui felt a bit uneasy. It seemed like he wasn’t visiting at the right time, so he put down his teacup and stood up: "I’ll be leaving now."

"Leaving so soon?"

Master Gui nodded.

"Then I’ll see you out." Wufu also put down her teacup. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Master Gui’s mouth twitched, and a fleeting trace of melancholy and disappointment flashed in his eyes.

They walked out of the Floral Hall one after the other, slowly along the corridor. Out of the corner of his eye, Master Gui glanced at the woman beside him. She was tall and had a straight posture. The distance between them was neither too close nor too far, and their sleeves occasionally brushed, adding to the tension.

It wasn’t until they reached the side door that Wufu stopped.

In the end, Master Gui couldn’t help himself and looked at her, asking, "Does Wufu have someone she likes?"

Wufu was stunned.

The air seemed a bit tense, and Master Gui casually glanced somewhere, squinting slightly.

Does she have someone she likes?

"I suppose I do." Recalling the man who had intruded into her dreams last night, Wufu smiled slightly.

Master Gui noticed this smile and found it particularly irksome. He frowned and asked, "Is it Ah Jiu?"

Wufu was surprised: "How did you know?"

Master Gui lowered his eyes and said, "Just a feeling."

In the Cloud Realm, the intimacy and rapport between them were so tight-knit that it was impossible to ignore.

"You’ve got quite a sharp intuition."

"From what your father mentioned, you aren’t engaged yet. At this time, Ah Jiu isn’t even in Nanyue, and you two aren’t engaged." Master Gui raised his head again and asked, "Can Wufu be sure that he is the one for your life?"

Wufu tilted her head slightly, shaking it: "I can’t be sure!"

Master Gui’s eyes brightened slightly.

"But if he wants to marry me and won’t betray me, then he will be the one for the rest of my life," Wufu said earnestly.

Her life cannot tolerate betrayal; if they are committed, and he doesn’t betray her, she will walk with him through life!

If he betrays her, then there is no future!

The light in Master Gui’s eyes dimmed.

"What if someone came now to propose to you?" he asked again.

Wufu was taken aback and said, "I promised to wait for him to come."

Master Gui chuckled, clasped his hands, and said, "I’ll be leaving now." He said and walked out the door.

Just as the carriage was exiting the alley, it was stopped. Ah Qi said, "Master, it’s someone from the Han Family."

A voice from outside requested Master Gui to return to the Han Family.

Master Gui was in an extremely bad mood at that moment, closed his eyes, and said, "Get lost!"
