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

Gu Hanyuan's composure made him stand out from the crowd.

Lin Shiyin's initial discomfort vanished instantly.

She usually considered herself to be less beautiful than Lin Xian'er.

Previously, Gu Hanyuan had openly expressed his admiration for her.

This stark contrast immediately stirred her vanity.

Her gaze towards Gu Hanyuan softened even more.

Lin Xian'er's expression darkened for a moment.

However, she concealed her emotional changes very well.

She lowered her eyes shyly and timidly.

But he was deeply resentful.

Isn't it rumored that Gu Hanyuan is a womanizer and a romantic?

She hadn't expected that even after being so direct, Gu Hanyuan would remain unmoved.

Gu Hanyuan skillfully used the technique of praising one person while criticizing another, with excellent results.

Noticing the change in Lin Shiyin and Lin Xian'er's emotions, he felt even more satisfied.

Gu Hanyuan wasn't very interested in Lin Xian'er.

However, Lin Xian'er is a very useful pawn.

Before being abandoned, it's natural to make good use of it.

Lin Xian'er's way of thinking dictates that the more unattainable something is, the more she desires it.

Only in this way can her behavior be subtly controlled.

It's like a carrot dangling in front of a donkey; even knowing you can't reach it, you still can't help but chase after it.

Gu Hanyuan wanted to maintain control of the situation.

Before that, we need to further increase Lin Xian'er's interest in him.

This opportunity came very quickly.

The four then chatted casually.

Lin Xian'er maintained her persona of being a shy, adoring girl...

Occasionally, they might give verbal hints or make subtle gestures.

Long Xiaoyun would occasionally undermine him.

Lin Shiyin reluctantly tried to ease the tension.

They soon started talking about poetry, songs, music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

After all, Long Xiaoyun couldn't get a word in edgewise on this topic.

Lin Shiyin and Lin Xian'er naturally steered the conversation to this topic, leaving Long Xiaoyun sulking.

However, as they chatted, the two women were astonished to discover that Gu Hanyuan was more skilled in poetry, calligraphy, music, chess, painting, and calligraphy than they were.

Lin Shiyin hadn't had such a heartfelt conversation with anyone in a long time, and her interest immediately soared.

Lin Xian'er's gaze toward Gu Hanyuan grew brighter and brighter.

You should know that the vast majority of people in the martial arts world are rough and tough.

For example, when it comes to poetry, songs, calligraphy, painting, music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, there are quite a few illiterate people.

Lin Xian'er would find it difficult to have anything in common with these people.

Honestly, she had absolutely no interest in it.

That's why Li Xunhuan is so popular.

After all, he was a third-place scholar in the imperial examinations, so his literary talent was naturally outstanding.

However, Gu Hanyuan was much taller than Li Xunhuan.

Many times, the two women would have a feeling of being impressed but not quite understanding.

After all, for Gu Hanyuan, who had plenty of villain points, improving these miscellaneous skills was very cheap.

Each of them reached perfection, and each one could be called a grandmaster.

It was easy to shock two women who were still living in the world of martial arts.

Lin Xian'er's urge to win Gu Hanyuan's heart grew stronger and stronger.

Her plump legs rubbed together from time to time, and her fragrant tongue couldn't help but lick the corners of her mouth.

Unfortunately, Gu Hanyuan's indifference infuriated her.

Just then, a commotion arose outside, and the sound even reached the inner courtyard.

Gu Hanyuan said calmly:

"It seems Li Xunhuan is in trouble."

Lin Shiyin's heart tightened immediately.

Hesitantly asked:

"Young Master Gu..."

Gu Hanyuan smiled gently:

"Madam, please don't worry, let's go out and take a look together."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shiyin was immediately relieved and gently thanked Gu Hanyuan.

Lin Xian'er had also started to care about Li Xunhuan's matter.

Seeing Gu Hanyuan's completely different attitude towards Lin Shiyin, she was instantly consumed by jealousy.

Her eyes were filled with gloom.

"My dear sister, why does everyone like you so much?"

Chapter 680: The actors are in place, the show is about to begin.

First came Li Xunhuan, then came Gu Hanyuan.

Both of them were the men Lin Xian'er was most interested in, yet they both liked Lin Shiyin.

Although Gu Hanyuan did not seem to show much affection for Lin Shiyin, it was actually revealed to Lin Xian'er.

Lin Shiyin is a bit slow on the uptake in this regard; otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many misunderstandings and regrets in the story.

However, Lin Xian'er, who understands men, keenly sensed the deep affection hidden in Gu Hanyuan's handsome and gentle smile.

Lin Xian'er's heart was filled with hatred and jealousy.

On the surface, however, he still maintained a worried expression.

He was still gently comforting Lin Shiyin beside her.

However, they failed to notice the fleeting, playful smile that appeared on Gu Hanyuan's face as he turned to leave.

"When it comes to acting skills, Lin Xian'er, you're still far behind."

Thinking this, Gu Hanyuan picked up Long Xiaoyun and walked leisurely towards the front hall.

Long Xiaoyun, who was also unaware of Gu Hanyuan's underhanded actions, suddenly kissed his perfect profile again, which was so close to hers.

Seeing this, Gu Hanyuan asked in surprise, "31:"

"Xiaoyun, what's wrong?"

Long Xiaoyun shook her head, her face slightly flushed, and said:

"nothing."

Gu Hanyuan smiled helplessly.

Long Xiaoyun's thoughts were not hard to guess.

She didn't understand any of the poems, songs, calligraphy, painting, music, chess, and other arts that Gu Hanyuan, Lin Xian'er, and Lin Shiyin talked about before, so she could only watch them communicate with a sullen expression.

At this moment, she was merely trying to draw Gu Hanyuan's attention back.

This young girl is gradually developing a girlish heart.

Lin Xian'er and Lin Shiyin both saw this scene.

The two people reacted differently.

Lin Xian'er's eyes looked somewhat strange, and she seemed to be having some other thoughts.

Lin Shiyin felt both gratified and worried.

I am pleased to see that Gu Hanyuan and Long Xiaoyun have a good relationship as master and apprentice.

It is highly likely that Long Xiaoyun will fall in love with Gu Hanyuan.
