I Will Protect You

In the next second, Gu Ruoyun's eyes met with Su Yan's eyes which were filled with surprise and joy. Gu Ruoyun, who had been feeling a little frustrated, suddenly felt that this Su Yan was not bad.

"Gu Ruoyun, in order to repay you, I will protect you." Su Yan clenched her fists at Gu Ruoyun to signal her determination.

She raised her hand and only then did Su Yan realize that her hand was completely black. When she thought about how she had appeared in front of Gu Ruoyun for such a long time, Su Yan felt a little awkward and hid her hand behind her back in embarrassment.

Gu Ruoyun was stunned by Su Yan's words and did not mind that she had called his name directly.

This was the first time someone had said that they wanted to protect him, and it had come from the mouth of a weak little girl.

Gu Ruoyun smiled nonchalantly. He did not think that a little girl would be able to protect him. However, it had to be said that up until now, he had always been interested in this little girl.

"Little girl, do you want to wash up in my imperial residence?" Noticing Su Yan's concealed actions, Gu Ruoyun opened his mouth to speak. He did not think that the other party would agree. After all, washing up in a man's residence, as a lady, she would still have some scruples.

Gu Ruoyun had only said it casually but Su Yan had nodded her head without holding back.

Such a friendly Su Yan made Gu Ruoyun pause. He then asked An Yi to bring Su Yan to a guest room to wash up.

Gu Ruoyun, who was standing alone in the courtyard, could not help but shake her head and laugh when she thought about how he had been shocked by this little girl who had suddenly barged into his manor. What an unconventional little girl.

Su Li, on the other hand, did not take a shower. She was still a little apprehensive. However, her appearance outside the imperial residence was too eye-catching, let alone going home like this.

Especially since she had a previous record of fighting on the street. Her parents probably thought that she had gone to fight again. Moreover, it was different from the last time when she had instructed the servants to fight. This time, she had gone to fight herself. She was probably going to faint from anger.

Su Li washed his hands and face. Looking at the black water, her face turned red. She was too embarrassed to ask An Yi to help her get some more water. She wanted to move it out by herself but found that she could not.

She had no choice but to ask An Yi to come in while blushing.

An Yi had his usual expressionless face. He poured the water from the basin without looking away.

This kind of dark one made Su Yan feel a little less awkward. If it was that dark four who was here today, Su Yan would probably die of embarrassment.

After Su Yan had finished washing up, she did not greet Gu Ruoyun and asked An Yi to send her out. She was going home.

An Yi had probably received gu Ruoyun's instructions and did not retort. He led Su Yan towards the door of the imperial residence. When they reached the door, he called out to Su Yan, who was about to leave.

"The master has instructed the young lady not to wash up in the house of a foreigner. This is not something good." Su Yan smiled when she heard An Yi repeat Gu Ruoyun's words in all seriousness. Suddenly, a mischievous thought arose in her heart.

Su Yan looked at An Yi and smiled evilly, "Then please help me say a few words to the Royal Highness. Tell him that I thank Uncle Gu for his teachings."

After speaking, Su Yan met up with Chu Tao and Chun Xia and walked towards the Su residence in a good mood.

An Yi initially thought that it was nothing but when he was in front of Gu Ruoyun, he realized that something was wrong.

"Royal Highness, that Young Lady asked me to deliver a message to the Royal Highness."

"What?" Gu Ruoyun asked with interest.

Thinking about how Su Yan addressed Gu Ruoyun, An Yi suddenly fell silent. It was reasonable for a little girl to call Gu Ruoyun uncle, but was there anything wrong with him calling the king that?
