Gu Chengxuan's expression seemed slightly startled, but he still didn't react. He just lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea.
Pei Yu raised her hands to wipe her tears while crying, but she was still sobbing. She didn't care if anyone else was there at the moment, so she choked and asked loudly: "Your Majesty! What do you think of me?"
Gu Chengxuan held the edge of the cup with his fingers, exerting slight pressure, but his expression looked extremely calm and indifferent, as if he was not affected by Pei Yu at all. When he heard Pei Yu's words, he only opened his thin lips slightly, He said calmly: "Then what do you think of yourself?"
Pei Yu cried and stammered: "I. I don't know!"
He was stuttering and arrogant, as if he refused to show weakness even when he was wronged.
She couldn't wait for Gu Chengxuan's answer, so she turned around and vented her anger on the housekeeper, shouting with red eyes: "What are you eavesdropping here!"
"Old slave... I..." The housekeeper was stunned again. He didn't expect the flames to reach his side for no reason. He hesitated and looked at King Cheng in embarrassment. To his surprise, King Cheng remained silent. , clearly acquiescing to Pei Yu's willfulness.
As a result, the butler who was affected by the fish pond had no choice but to retreat with a few servants in despair.
As soon as the housekeeper took the people away, Pei Yu couldn't help crying and complained to him: "I'm not... I'm not a prostitute, why did the prince treat me like this!"
Gu Chengxuan raised his eyes, looked at her falling tears, and asked calmly: "How did I treat you?"
"You... you didn't talk to me in bed!"
"Yeah." Gu Chengxuan nodded and admitted, "What else?"
"You hurt me so much!"
"anything else?"
"There are many more! If the prince doesn't like this, why do you still drag me to do it!"
Gu Chengxuan seemed to take it for granted, his eyes were calm, and he asked her coldly: "Didn't you run to my bed by yourself?"
"I... I thought... the prince likes me..." Pei Yu was a little incoherent. He rolled his eyes anxiously and tears fell again. He raised the backs of his hands and kept rubbing his eyes to wipe away the tears. His shoulders were twitching, and he was choked with sobs, "It turns out that I...and, I'm being sentimental again..."
Pei Yu suddenly lost all confidence and did not dare to ask any more questions.
She was afraid that if she kept asking this question, she would end up humiliating herself, but she didn't want to hear it anymore.
She really didn't want to hear those cold words coming out of Gu Chengxuan's mouth anymore...
Every word is spoken truthfully, every word is devoid of emotion...
Every word…
They seemed to be sarcastically telling Pei Yu that she was just being sentimental from the beginning to the end.
Pei Yu felt really uncomfortable for a moment and was about to burst into tears, but she didn't want to have Gu Chengxuan look at her in such a cold and embarrassed manner under his eyes. It would be too embarrassing.
So, after Pei Yu said these words, he wiped his eyes and turned around and left.
She wanted to escape from here quickly. At least at this moment, Pei Yu wanted to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
Because I really have no place to be ashamed of.
But what Pei Yu didn't expect was that she had just taken two steps when she heard Gu Chengxuan, who was sitting at the table, calling her calmly: "Stop."
His voice still sounded smooth, as if he still had no emotion.
