In the martial arts world, he threatens Yin Susu from the start.

This is an instinctive fear stemming from the enormous disparity in strength.

Moreover, Gu Hanyuan's carefully crafted image of a charming playboy also played a part in this.

Whether they want to win him over or try to please him, they will subconsciously think of using a honey trap.

Of course, the result is either like throwing meat buns to a dog—gone and never to return—or like losing both wife and army.

Luo Bing was unaware of Su Quan's inner thoughts, but he was stunned by her beauty.

After a slight pause, a strong sense of unease welled up inside me.

Before this, she had never seen a woman more beautiful than herself.

Even Li Yuanzhi and Shuang'er could only be described as equally matched.

At this moment, Su Quan put immense pressure on her.

Especially since Su Quan was rescued by Gu Hanyuan.

Gu Hanyuan also held a special place in Luo Bing's heart.

Subconsciously, I didn't want to lose to Su Quan.

Driven by a competitive spirit, she begged Shuang'er to take her to bathe and change.

She only realized it when her delicate body was submerged in the heat of the bathtub.

Her pretty face flushed red as she muttered to herself:

"What am I trying to do? Am I trying to win Gu Hanyuan's favor?"

As the saying goes, a woman dresses up for the man who appreciates her.

Gu Hanyuan expressed his appreciation and affection for her both openly and subtly.

Even if Luo Bing doesn't like Gu Hanyuan, she can't help but feel a sense of superiority and vanity.

When a woman who is more beautiful than her suddenly appears, she will naturally be unhappy that Gu Hanyuan's attention has been stolen.

This has nothing to do with love or hate; it's simply caused by vanity and a desire to keep up with others.

Gu Hanyuan deliberately gathered the women together, partly to create a "catfish effect."

Several catfish were also placed in the fish tank that was filled with sardines.

When catfish charge wildly, the normally lifeless sardines will swim faster to save their lives, thus maintaining their vitality.

Vitality comes from competition.

Introducing a competitive environment will be more beneficial to Gu Hanyuan's strategy.

Previously, Li Yuanzhi had allowed him to take advantage of her.

Or was Su Quan deliberately showcasing her charm?

Or perhaps it was at this moment that Luo Bing washed off her disguise, took a bath, and changed her clothes.

It's all because of the competitive spirit that caused this.

When Luo Bing reappeared, she was dressed in plain white, with bright, sparkling eyes, pearly white teeth, and rosy cheeks, making her exceptionally beautiful.

Her slightly smiling face was gentle and charming; she was truly a beautiful young woman.

But Luo Bing, seeing that things had come to this point, wondered if she could possibly change back to her original disguise.

She displayed her charm with a somewhat reckless and self-destructive attitude.

Su Quan's eyes flickered when she saw Luo Bing's current appearance.

He realized he had underestimated this beautiful young woman.

She was only slightly less beautiful than him.

Even the mature charm she exudes as a married woman is something that cannot be faked.

For a moment, she was worried that Gu Hanyuan preferred Luo Bing and had fallen for her honey trap.

As for Li Yuanzhi, she was caught in the crossfire.

Goodness, they've all made themselves look incredibly beautiful.

On the contrary, it made her look like a naive young girl.

Chapter 637: Li Yuanzhi: Brother Gu really is the kind of person who takes advantage of others' misfortunes.

Su Quan and Luo Bing were unaware of the immense pressure Li Yuanzhi was under.

However, they have already begun to confront each other head-on.

Su Quan took the initiative and launched a powerful attack right from the start.

"As expected of the renowned beauty 'Mandarin Duck Blades' Madam Wen. With such a beautiful wife as Madam Wen, the Four Heroes of Wen would probably be able to heal any injury."

Su Quan was able to subdue the members of the Divine Dragon Cult, so how could she not have some skill?

In a single sentence, he stabbed Luo Bing in the back several times.

Every strike is bloodless, yet every strike is deadly.

Luo Bing has a great reputation.

It wasn't because of her ordinary martial arts skills, nor her chivalrous deeds, but because of her beauty as the most beautiful member of the Red Flower Society.

This has drawn a lot of criticism from her, and it has also made her extremely concerned.

Luo Bing once overheard some conversations between Qing Dynasty officials and soldiers.

"With such a beautiful wife, why would Wen Tailai need to rebel? He should just stay home and have ten or eight children."

Those officers and soldiers who were talking about Luo Bing were all killed by her in the end.

But the resentment lingered in my heart.

Now that Wen Tailai is seriously injured and in a coma, who is Luo Bing showing off her beauty by deliberately washing away her disguise and the dust of the world?

If Wen Tailai knew this, he would probably be so angry that he would wake up.

The deep, bone-revealing cuts made Luo Bing gasp for breath, her face contorted in pain, and her chest heaving.

After calming her anger, Luo Bing said quietly:

"I wonder which respectable family this lady came from that the dog emperor abducted her into the palace? With her beauty, she is no less beautiful than the legendary Daji or Bao Si, and she would surely be the most favored person in the world. So why does she follow Young Master Gu?"

Luo Bing's counterattack was no simple matter either.

Given Su Quan's alluring charm, no one would mistake her for a young girl.

Luo Bing believes that Su Quan's beauty was what allowed Kangxi to risk damaging his reputation by forcibly taking her into the palace.

They subtly compared her to the likes of Daji and Baosi, who brought ruin to the country.

It also pointed out that her purpose in following Gu Hanyuan was unclear, and that she might have some unspeakable secret.

Su Quan's face darkened upon hearing this.

She didn't care about the reputation of Daji and Baosi.

However, the unclear purpose touched her biggest fear, as she was afraid that Gu Hanyuan would investigate further.

Moreover, the mention of "Madam" left her speechless. Could it be that her husband was Hong Antong?

Besides, it's a bit too late to pretend to be innocent and change her persona at this point.

He sighed with feigned sorrow:

"I am Su Quan. As for that useless man, let's not mention him."

With Su Quan's beauty, the effect of her appearing so weak and sorrowful is astonishing.

Unfortunately, he was surrounded by women and was not affected at all; on the contrary, he felt very annoyed.

Can Gu Hanyuan really resist such a charming and alluring woman?

Su Quan did not dare to falsely accuse her husband's family of being dead.

After all, widows are easier to keep than married women.

Moreover, for normal men...

A woman should dress in mourning clothes to look pretty; widows are often more attractive than married women.

Although she intended to use seduction to save her life, she had no intention of actually sacrificing her innocence.

Su Quan continued to explain:

"The palace may be a dream for many women, but for me it is nothing but a cage. It is my honor to be able to follow the famous Young Master Gu."

There was a pause.

She said, with a pointed remark:

"The injuries suffered by the Fourth Hero of the Wen family are quite serious. Given Young Master Gu's character, he will certainly do his best to treat them. However, if anything unexpected happens, please do not take offense, Madam. Besides, Young Master Gu cares so much about Madam, he would not want to upset her."

Su Quan's skill level is clearly higher.

His words implied that Luo Bing might become a widow.
