Gu Hanyuan frowned and asked:

"What has already happened?"

Seeing that Gu Hanyuan was still pretending to be stupid, Long Xiaoyun said with hidden anger:

190 “Shiyin has lost her virginity to Young Master Gu, and although I have no intention of blaming Young Master Gu, shouldn’t he give me an explanation?”

Long Xiaoyun was indeed utterly shameless, and at this moment he deliberately shifted the blame onto Lin Shiyin.

Isn't being unfaithful to a woman the same as saying that Lin Shiyin seduced Gu Hanyuan?

This was done to give Gu Hanyuan a way out so that he could better negotiate terms.

Gu Hanyuan's expression turned slightly cold as he said in a deep voice:

"Gu admits to liking your wife, but she is a good woman who has always upheld her principles and has never lost her virginity. Why do you doubt your wife instead of spending time with her and cherishing her? Long Xiaoyun, you truly don't know how lucky you are."

Long Xiaoyun was stunned upon hearing this.

He had no idea that Gu Hanyuan had subtly changed the subject.

Lin Shiyin has indeed not lost her virginity yet, but she has certainly had her share of other escapades.

Of course, Long Xiaoyun didn't believe it and just took it as an excuse Gu Hanyuan made to protect his reputation.

It's also possible that Gu Hanyuan really just wanted to get something for free.

Long Xiaoyun could not accept this.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, he followed Gu Hanyuan's words and said:

"Since Young Master Gu says that Shiyin has not lost her virginity and has admitted to liking Shiyin, then I would like to make a deal with Young Master Gu."

"trade?"

Gu Hanyuan's eyes flickered slightly, his brows furrowed, but his heart was full of amusement.

Long Xiaoyun finally took the bait.

Long Xiaoyun noticed that Gu Hanyuan seemed somewhat interested.

He felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders, and then he uttered some earth-shattering words:

"I am willing to persuade Shion."

Gu Hanyuan said with a strange expression:

"Master Long is quite willing to part with her, but there is one thing I don't understand. It is said that Master Long deeply loves Lin Shiyin, so why is he now discarding her like a worn-out shoe?"

Upon hearing this, Long Xiaoyun felt a surge of anger.

He felt that Gu Hanyuan was deliberately bringing up the most sensitive topics.

If he hadn't suspected that Gu Hanyuan had already taken Lin Shiyin's body and was still thinking of getting it for free, he wouldn't have used Lin Shiyin for a transaction.

The only good news is that Gu Hanyuan's form of address has changed.

The title "Fourth Master Long" was entirely fabricated; Gu Hanyuan always addressed him by his given name.

Clearly, it was his suggestion that appealed to Gu Hanyuan, which is why he showed him more respect.

However, since Gu Hanyuan wouldn't admit it, Long Xiaoyun could only go along with him and say:

"Since Young Master Gu knows about my affair with Shiyin, he must have also heard about the feud between us and Li Xunhuan, right?"

"Have heard a little bit."

Long Xiaoyun's face grew increasingly grim as he spoke:

"Shiyin has always loved Li Xunhuan. Since she doesn't love me, what's wrong with me using her as a bargaining chip?"

This was also part of Long Xiaoyun's thoughts.

A combination of factors led him to make this decision.

Gu Hanyuan pondered for a moment, then laughed mockingly:

"Master Long is quite shrewd; he's not one to suffer losses for nothing. But since Master Long has put up such a heavy bargaining chip, he must have something big in mind. I wonder what Master Long wants to exchange with me?"

When Long Xiaoyun saw that Gu Hanyuan had agreed, his eyes lit up.

As for the mockery, he naturally ignored it.

Long Xiaoyun said somewhat nervously:

"I have two requests."

Gu Hanyuan said indifferently, without comment:

"Tell me what happened."

Long Xiaoyun's expression darkened slightly, and he said in a deep voice:

"I would like to ask Young Master Gu to stop interfering in Li Xunhuan's affairs."

"Does Master Long not want Li Xunhuan to leave alive?"

Gu Hanyuan's expression was indifferent.

Now that things have come to this point, there's no need to hide anything anymore.

Long Xiaoyun didn't care that Gu Hanyuan had seen through his thoughts, and said directly:

"Young Master Gu is wise. The grudge between me and Li Xunhuan must eventually be settled."

A glint flashed in Gu Hanyuan's eyes, and he pondered for a moment before saying:

"The people from the Six Doors will be here soon, and Master Long doesn't have much time left."

Although Gu Hanyuan did not directly agree, his words had already revealed his thoughts.

Therefore, Long Xiaoyun was overjoyed and said:

"As long as Young Master Gu doesn't interfere, that's fine."

Gu Hanyuan said indifferently, without comment:

“Tell me your second request.”

Long Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment.

He smiled with a slightly obsequious tone:

“That… the ‘Innate Sunflower Divine Skill’ that Young Master Gu gave to A-Fei…”

Gu Hanyuan glanced at Long Xiaoyun with a half-smile upon hearing this and said:

"Heh, you've got some sense, even eyeing my 'Innate Sunflower Divine Skill'."

Long Xiaoyun's face immediately turned awkward.

It's understandable to justify this in order to settle the score with Li Xunhuan.

The wife changed her supernatural powers; it's not a pleasant thing to say.

However, Long Xiaoyun still asked nervously:

What does Young Master Gu think?

It's not surprising that Long Xiaoyun would make this request.

Or perhaps this was an opportunity that Gu Hanyuan had given him.

Otherwise, simply letting him fight Li Xunhuan might not have been enough to persuade Long Xiaoyun to make a desperate move and use Lin Shiyin as a bargaining chip in the deal.

After witnessing the effects of Ah Fei learning the "Innate Sunflower Divine Skill," Long Xiaoyun was bound to be tempted.

One reason was revenge, and the other was profit.

Gu Hanyuan took out a "Primordial Sunflower Divine Skill" manual that was exactly the same as the one he had given to A Fei before and threw it into Long Xiaoyun's arms.

Amidst his overjoyed expression, he said calmly:

"Since Master Long is willing to use his beloved wife as a bargaining chip, this request of yours should naturally be granted."

Long Xiaoyun was taken aback upon hearing this.

Gu Hanyuan's words clearly implied something.

Tell him not to forget to persuade Lin Shiyin to come to his door.

Long Xiaoyun felt a mix of emotions: reluctance, guilt, and embarrassment.

Finally, looking at the manual in his hand, his eyes blazed with determination and ambition.

He said in a deep voice:

"Don't worry, Young Master Gu, I will persuade Shiyin as soon as I get back."

As for accepting the secret manual and not doing anything about it, he didn't have the guts.

Moreover, there was still the matter of Li Xunhuan that hadn't been resolved.

"Then I will await good news. Don't keep me waiting too long."

Gu Hanyuan left behind a detached remark and disappeared from the spot.

Long Xiaoyun was left alone, lost in thought in the cold wind.
