He could only apologize to Gu Hanyuan and say:
"Brother Gu, I'm sorry. Mother is right, let's sleep separately tonight."
Gu Hanyuan gently stroked Yue Lingshan's hair.
With gentle, loving eyes, he comforted her:
"Shan'er, don't worry, there's still plenty of time."
Yue Lingshan shyly agreed and went into the room.
Ning Zhongze was still not relieved when he saw this.
Gu Hanyuan then blocked her way.
"Madam, may I speak with you in private?"
Gu Hanyuan's tone was subtle.
Ning Zhongze's heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad feeling.
Feeling guilty, he dared not refuse.
The two went to a secluded spot.
Ning Zhongze saw that Gu Hanyuan remained silent.
This somber atmosphere intensified Ning Zhongze's ominous premonition.
I couldn't help but speak first:
"Is there anything I can help you with, Young Master Gu? We have a long journey ahead of us tomorrow, so you should get some rest."
Gu Hanyuan said with a serious and cold expression:
"Was that Madam outside the door last night?"
These words were like a thunderbolt from a clear sky to Ning Zhongze.
I was so surprised that I didn't know what to do.
Just as he was about to retort, he heard Gu Hanyuan's cold and sharp voice.
"Madam need not deny it. I consider myself to have decent martial arts skills, and while my eyesight may not be perfect from a hundred meters away, I certainly didn't mistake your beauty at that distance last night."
Chapter 155: Madam probably doesn't want Sect Leader Yue to know about this either.
Gu Hanyuan's voice gradually turned cold and sharp.
"I never expected that the lady known as the Jade Maiden of Mount Hua would be the kind of person who would pry into her daughter's private affairs."
Seeing Ning Zhongze's increasingly pale face, he added a sentence.
"I am truly disappointed."
Ning Zhongze's expression changed drastically.
Gu Hanyuan's last words, filled with disappointment, made her feel a little sad.
It wasn't because of Gu Hanyuan's disappointment that she was sad.
Instead, they were saddened by their own disappointment.
She was an upright, generous, and righteous person throughout her life.
She is a renowned heroine in the martial arts world.
The phrase "Ning the Heroine".
He is the idol of countless women.
Apart from Huang Rong, the entire Song Kingdom was filled with such a person.
She believes she is second to none among women.
If Gu Hanyuan hadn't said anything...
This only made her feel a little embarrassed.
However, when Gu Hanyuan brought it up openly and honestly...
That would be more than just awkward.
Instead, it resulted in the destruction of decades of reputation.
Because I was too shocked.
They couldn't even detect the flirtatious undertone in Gu Hanyuan's words.
With a grim expression, Ning Zhongze could only offer a forced explanation:
"I just saw it by accident, it wasn't intentional."
However, Gu Hanyuan did not give her a chance to escape.
The voice was icy cold as it said:
"Oh? You saw it by accident? And you've been watching for so long just because you saw it by accident? Does Madam really think I didn't know when you arrived?"
"I……"
Ning Zhongze wanted to say something.
But then he gave up in despair.
Because she knew that no matter what she said, it wouldn't be right.
Are you suggesting she say she didn't leave immediately because she was surprised?
How could she possibly say such a thing?
In Gu Hanyuan's opinion...
Ning Zhongze's mentality is actually quite normal.
Voyeurism is not a strange thing in modern times.
It could even be said that the vast majority of people have this kind of psychological problem.
It's just that some people can endure it.
Some people can't help it.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many strange cases.
However, feudal ethics and morality were extremely oppressive in this era.
Such things are not something that can be discussed openly.
However, if it were exposed, it would inevitably face condemnation from everyone.
Ning Zhongze's face turned ashen.
They even began to despair.
Gu Hanyuan sighed deeply.
His tone changed from cold to helpless.
"After all, Madam is Shan'er's mother, and I don't want to make things difficult for her."
Gu Hanyuan's words suddenly brought a glimmer of light to Ning Zhongze's despairing heart.
His pale complexion also improved.
Because the conversation between the two of them was too serious.
Gu Hanyuan's words were too cold.
This caused her to momentarily forget the relationship between Gu Hanyuan and Yue Lingshan.
Ning Zhongze composed herself and said:
“Young Master Gu, I know you like Shan’er, and Shan’er likes you too. My senior brother and I both approve of you two being together.”
She misunderstood Gu Hanyuan because she had just stopped the two of them from living together.
They believed it was because she opposed Gu Hanyuan and Yue Lingshan's relationship.
"But Madam just disagreed with my plan to live with Shan'er."
Ning Zhongze saw that Gu Hanyuan had indeed said that.
Tell him the reason you already have in mind.
"That's just because we don't want Shan'er to be handed over here. You can naturally live together after you get married."
"So, Madam still doesn't agree to me living with Shan'er?"
Gu Hanyuan's eyes were deep and unfathomable.
His voice turned cold and icy again.
"Then, Madam, could we perhaps discuss making amends for our previous spying?"
Ning Zhongze thought the matter could be settled.
