Chapter 1704: Chapter 1704
"Yun Niang, it’s not unexpected for the King of Chu to leave soon. For the next few days, you must listen to me and not go anywhere until he leaves. Only then can you go out."
Originally, Gu Ya and Prince Ning planned for the King of Chu to leave within half a month. Now it seems that even half a month is too long. The King of Chu acts so unscrupulously; as long as he stays in town for one more day, Yunjin will be in danger for one more day.
For the sake of Yunjin’s safety, he must go to discuss with Prince Ning again, striving to make the King of Chu leave here in the shortest time possible.
"Yun Niang, I will go to the Prince Ning Residence again tomorrow. The King of Chu is now despicable and shameless, resorting to vile means. You must be careful at home." Listening to Gu Ya’s words, Su Yunjin looked at him thoughtfully.
Gu Ya added, "The group of men in black that appeared today must be related to the King of Chu. I will discuss this matter with Prince Ning. With his help, the King of Chu will definitely be wary!"
Gu Ya said he would seek Prince Ning’s help. After thinking, Su Yunjin spoke, "Husband, after all, it was the King of Chu’s timely appearance today that saved my life. If it weren’t for him blocking the black-clad man’s machete, I might have been killed by that man in black. Without definite evidence, let’s not jump to conclusions so early." Before uncovering the truth, Su Yunjin felt they shouldn’t arbitrarily conclude that the King of Chu was behind it.
Convicting someone too early, the King of Chu was her lifesaver today. If those men in black had nothing to do with him, and she and Gu Ya still privately suspected him, wouldn’t they become ungrateful people?
Everything should wait until the truth is uncovered, and then judgments can be made!
Su Yunjin was thinking about finding out the identity of those assassins today; by then, everything would become clear. But Gu Ya showed her a look she had never seen before. Updates are released by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵
Disappointment, unfamiliarity, hurt—all sorts of emotions. Su Yunjin couldn’t quite understand, yet Gu Ya’s expression inexplicably made her a bit scared.
"Husband." Su Yunjin called Gu Ya.
Gu Ya said nothing; his gaze grew colder inch by inch, eventually so unfamiliar that it seemed as if the person standing before her wasn’t the Gu Ya she knew.
In all their time being married, Su Yunjin had never seen such an expression in his eyes.
Su Yunjin tried to reach out to Gu Ya again, but he mercilessly pushed her away. His voice was as cold and devoid of warmth as his expression, "Yun Niang, even now you still trust the King of Chu? You trust him so much? Even though he ordered people to kidnap you? You have no doubts about him?"
Today’s events were clearly a play staged by the King of Chu, meant to gain Yunjin’s gratitude. Yet, in such an obvious matter, Yunjin continued to trust him.
Gu Ya was a man; his own wife, in his presence, would rather trust another man than him? Gu Ya’s look at Su Yunjin grew colder and more unfamiliar. Su Yunjin wanted to explain; it wasn’t that she had no suspicions about the King of Chu, but she just wanted to find out the truth first.
"Husband, listen to me, I just want to find out the facts first, I’m not..." Su Yunjin anxiously explained, but Gu Ya didn’t listen to her any further, coldly pushing her aside. After giving her a glance, he said nothing more and turned around to leave the house.
