Gu Liufeng's mask was knocked off by the child, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he showed a gentle smile.
Shen Qingruo stood at the door blankly, looking at Gu Liufeng's face, and for a moment she seemed to be in a trance.
She never thought about the man who quarreled with her every day and was disliked by her.
She actually has such a beautiful face, which is no less beautiful than Brother Xiyue's.
Even with that bright red scar, Shen Qingruo didn't find it ugly at all. She only felt that it added to her charm that made her heart flutter.

It was early morning, and the foot of Cangshan Mountain was still sparsely populated and barren of spiritual energy.
Nalan Ziyun stood in front of the simple and dilapidated villa, his face full of disgust.
This was the first time he set foot in the villa where Nalan Hexi lived.
He knew from a very young age that he had a twin sister, Nalan Hexi.
But this sister was different from him in terms of outstanding talent. Nalan Hexi was ugly and had a useless physique, so she couldn't practice at all.
When he was a child, before Nalan Ziyun went to Qixing Palace to study martial arts, he was once ridiculed because of his twin sister who was not presentable.
"Nalan Ziyun, you and such an ugly woman are actually born from the same concubine. This is so disgusting!"
"That's right. I'd be so ashamed to have such a useless sister."
"We shouldn't play with him. What if we get infected by his sister..."
Nalan Ziyun was angry and hateful at that time, and often couldn't help cursing this ugly sister to die soon.
In particular, there was one time when he was hiding in the room and heard the ugly woman running over crying and saying she wanted to see her brother.
Nalan Ziyun still remembers the expressions of the servants who discussed Nalan Hexi with contempt and disgust after she was driven back to the villa. He was also stared at with strange eyes.
The situation did not improve until Nalan Ziyun went to the Seven Stars Palace to learn skills and Nalan Hexi was thrown into the other courtyard to fend for himself.
But whenever he thought about the fact that if this woman were still alive, he would be laughed at when he returned home, Nalan Ziyun felt sick.
He wanted to find someone to secretly kill this ugly sister, but his father would never allow anyone to kill Nalan Hexi.
Nalan Zijun respected and feared his father, so he dared not disobey him.
So in the end, he came up with a plan to kill two birds with one stone.
Nalan Ziyun knew that Nalan Feixue liked the prince, and that Nalan Feixue was domineering and jealous by nature, and he hated that waste Nalan Hexi to death.
So he designed a plan to make Nalan Feixue think that the prince was attracted by Nalan Hexi's special physique and wanted to take her as a concubine to help her practice.
Nalan Feixue has always dreamed of marrying the prince, so how could she allow a bitch like Nalan Hexi to hook up with the prince
By then, if Nalan Feixue killed Nalan Hexi, it would have nothing to do with me
Nalan Ziyun had a good idea.
He thought he would definitely not see Nalan Hexi this time when he came back.
But who would have known that on the first day he returned home, his father asked him to go and pick up the useless Nalan Hexi, and also said that the two siblings should get closer.
Humph! Let him get close to that ugly woman. Nalan Ziyun really felt disgusted in his dreams!
And there was that useless waste Nalan Feixue, who hadn't even killed Nalan Hexi in all this time. It was such a waste of his good plan.
But I remembered the boy I met on the Broken Soul Mountain. (To be continued)
