Upon seeing Qitian Yu's gaze, Gu Qingluan's eyebrows lightly furrowed, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.
Qitian Yu snapped back to his senses and, in an attempt to salvage his image, wore a self-assured smile. "Qingluan, it's been a while. You look even more beautiful than before. This prince almost didn't recognize you."
Gu Qingluan responded coldly, "I am not acquainted with the Fifth Prince. Please address me as Gu Qingluan or Miss Gu."
Rather than getting angry, Qitian Yu felt a surge of warmth in his chest, and his gaze towards Gu Qingluan became intensely passionate.
Originally, he made this visit to establish a good relationship with the Gu family and explore the possibility of forming an alliance with the Island of No Return
Now, he thought that perhaps something could happen between him and Gu Qingluan.
