Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!-Chapter 657: The Naive Little Flower Fairy VS The Worldly Wealthy Beauty (Part 7)
Chapter 657: Chapter 657: The Naive Little Flower Fairy VS The Worldly Wealthy Beauty (Part 7)
Half a month had passed, and Yu Wenrui had forced himself not to go to that small courtyard until today, when he simply couldn’t resist anymore.
Before he even entered the courtyard, he heard a melody of a qin.
Unlike the usual leisurely pleasure, this melody was filled with a subtle sense of sorrow.
Yu Wenrui felt uneasy: She too, could have worries and sorrows?
Unable to hold back, he quickened his pace and saw the person in the courtyard.
She was still in that ethereal white garment, but in Yu Wenrui’s eyes, she seemed much diminished.
A slight bitterness spread through his heart.
Gu Shengyin had noticed him.
"You’re here!" Her eyes instantly filled with joy, and she hurried over to Yu Wenrui.
"I’m going to take a Concubine."
That was the first thing Yu Wenrui said to her.
The smile on Gu Shengyin’s face froze.
After having shape-shifted for so long and having many famous female teachers at his request, she knew what he meant.
And what taking a Concubine implied.
She cried.
Yu Wenrui was somewhat panicked as he had anticipated her reaction, but he didn’t expect her to burst into tears like that.
It wasn’t loud wailing; her tears just unpredictably started rolling down, seemingly endless.
"Don’t you like me?" Gu Shengyin asked.
Yu Wenrui was speechless; how could he not like her, to the point where he even thought about changing his original plans to keep her by his side forever.
But he couldn’t. He had prepared for it for so long, the long-standing wishes of many years, he couldn’t let go.
If he couldn’t let go, then the only one to be let go would be Gu Shengyin.
His voice was somewhat hoarse, "You Lan, I will have Concubines and a Main Consort in the future, it has nothing to do with liking."
The thinking of the Flower Fairy was clearly unable to comprehend all of this; she only knew that being with someone she liked was the happiest thing, nothing could be better than that.
But humans are different; in their hearts, there are many things much more important than this.
The two parted on bad terms.
Yu Wenrui left somewhat disheveled, feeling very despicable.
He had never thought himself a good person, but it was the first time that he felt remorse for hurting someone because of his own despicable actions.
Yet, in the future, he would commit more despicable acts.
The items delivered to the small courtyard remained the finest from the Prince’s Mansion, but Yu Wenrui seldom visited again.
One day, an uninvited guest arrived at Gu Shengyin’s small courtyard.
Gu Shengyin recognized her, Yun Chuqing from Yun Mansion, the most beautiful woman in Ming Country and who would be Prince Xian’s Concubine.
She knew why Yu Wenrui wanted to take her as a concubine: The Yun Family was the wealthiest family under the heavens, and although merchants held low status, their wealth was comparable to the national treasury.
Followed by a large entourage of servants, Yun Chuqing said arrogantly to Gu Shengyin, "I came to see the little disciple sister that our Prince has hidden in this courtyard."
Her tone was full of disdain as if she didn’t speak of a disciple sister but a concealed mistress.
Her following servants also snickered.
Gu Shengyin looked coldly at this woman, "Who are you?"
As she spoke in a flat tone, just leisurely sitting there, Yun Chuqing felt as though she was being challenged.
A maid by her side spoke up, "Our young mistress is the eldest daughter of Yun Mansion, Lord Prince Xian’s future Concubine."
"Ah, the future Concubine." Gu Shengyin emphasized the words heavily.
She watched, unsurprised, as Yun Chuqing’s face turned green.
"If you want to show off, at least wait until you enter the mansion and become the Main Consort," Gu Shengyin said dismissively.
