Quick Wear: Saving the Heroine Isn’t Too Easy!

The courage he had to fight against a hundred people alone disappeared more than ten years ago. Now he is just an old man full of regret and guilt.

Gu Xici's mother was not a lady from a well-off family, but the saint of the strongest sect in the martial arts world, the Chilian Sect. The sect his mother belonged to did not agree with Gu Xici's father and mother being together, and the old man would never let his son lose his wife because of the bad rules in the martial arts world.

He didn't care whether the Chi Lian Sect was strong or weak, and directly called on 100,000 Black Armored Soldiers to reason with them. Although the Chi Lian Sect was strong, they were no match for the battle-hardened Black Armored Soldiers and could only retreat.

One year after Gu Xici's parents got married, the Chi Lian Sect suddenly launched an attack and wanted to kidnap the Saint. At this time, Gu Xici's mother was expecting a baby, and the Chi Lian Sect's people kidnapped Gu's mother without taking care of her health, and she died of dystocia on the way.

After knowing that Mother Gu had been kidnapped, Gu's father rushed directly to Chilianmen. After learning that Mother Gu had died, he was heartbroken and was captured alive.

Gu Bubang hurriedly led the Black Armored Army to charge into the Chi Lian Sect. When Gu Bubang found Gu's father, Gu's father was holding Gu Xici in his arms. With his last breath, he handed the child to Gu Bubang and told Gu Bubang that he should not have treated the Chi Lian Sect like that, otherwise it would not have ended up like this.

The people of Chi Lian Men died or fled, and finally only the leader of Chi Lian Men was left. Before he died, the leader laughed at me and said, "No matter how brave you are, the person you loved the most when you were young is dead, and now your son and daughter-in-law are dead. Sooner or later, the child in your arms will also be killed by you."

From then on, no matter what he did, he would consider whether he would offend anyone or whether they would retaliate against Gu Xici.

The once arrogant general has become a timid old man. Gu Xici looks at his grandfather, wondering when he will be able to slay his inner demons.

"Who is the one being married to?"

Gu Xici rubbed her forehead and had to think of a way to resolve this marriage. Before she could even compete with the male protagonist in wits and courage, she was already entangled in the matter at hand.

"Minister Wen's legitimate daughter, Wen Ning."

I didn't bother to whisper.

"Wen Ning, why is it her?"

Isn't Wen Ning the heroine? Why is she here to join in the fun? As expected of the heroine, although she didn't know I was going to deal with the hero, she directly arranged a marriage for me, forcing me to postpone dealing with the villain hero.

"Yes, that's her. Her family holds a high position among the civil servants, and is well-liked by the queen. Ah Ci, proceed with caution."

I didn't bother to remind him.

"Well, I see."

After leaving the study, Gu Xici went to rest. He had been walking around for the whole afternoon and didn't want to do anything now. He decided to leave all the troubles to tomorrow.

The next night, Gu Xici sneaked up the wall of Wen Mansion and looked at the similar corner, so she knew where she had just climbed in from. She would not come to Wen Mansion to look for the heroine, and if she did not find the heroine, she would be lost and could not find the exit.

Moreover, the security at the Wen Mansion was so strict that there were patrols passing by every once in a while, as if they knew someone would climb around the corner.

Forget it, I probably won’t be able to find the heroine tonight, so I’ll have to find the way out first. Now let’s head north and leave the Wen Mansion.

Just when Gu Xici had just avoided the inspection of the Wen Mansion's guards, he saw a familiar sneaky figure climbing over the wall and running towards a courtyard.

The third rule of Gu's book-traveling is not to meddle in other people's business, and not to be curious, otherwise you will get yourself into trouble. For an example, please refer to the following story development.

"How could someone climb over the wall like me at this time? Let's follow and take a look."

Gu Xici followed the furtive figure into a yard.

The owner of the figure looked around, and after making sure that no one was around, he climbed down from the wall. He then straightened his clothes and walked towards the door of a room.

Suddenly, he stepped back in a hurry and peeked over from the wall. There were several maids guarding the door, so it seemed that he could not go in through the door.

The figure sneaked to the window of the room again, but unexpectedly the window was locked. If he tried to open it forcefully, he would definitely be discovered.

Helpless, the man finally climbed onto the roof and peeled off the tiles one by one.

Gu Xici was also shocked by this man's actions. Are the flower thieves nowadays so professional?

After seeing the flower thief jumping down from the hole, Gu Xici climbed onto the roof. Damn, it’s such a big hole. Let’s see what happened inside and be ready to rescue people at any time.

"Aning, I'm here to pick you up. I'll take you to the palace now."

As soon as the flower thief landed on the ground, he took off the cloth covering his face and walked towards Wen Ning impatiently.

"Brother Xiao Ren, why are you here?"

Ever since Xiao Ren climbed over the wall last time, her mother arranged many guards in the Wen Mansion, especially in her room, where several people were guarding the door and the windows were locked.

So, villain, how did you get in?

What to do? Call someone in immediately. Wen Ning opened his mouth and called Xiao Ren "Brother".

"I will take you to the palace to see the emperor, and you can ask him to cancel the engagement."

Xiao Ren looked at Wen Ning, and his expression showed that he was very distressed that Wen Ning was going to marry someone else.

"What if the Emperor's uncle disagrees? I heard that Gu Xici has already returned to the capital."

Wen Ning watched Xiao Ren's performance with a worried look on his face.

"It's okay, at worst you can just run away from the marriage."

Xiao Ren said it easily, as if it was a trivial matter.

"Escape from marriage?"

Wen Ning made a sound of surprise.

Oh my god, how could this villain say such a thing? If she did that, the Wen family, the Gu family, the royal family, oh my god, would instantly go from being the group's favorite to being the stupid, trouble-making, and ignorant group's hated one.

"Yes, after you escaped from the marriage, the emperor would definitely arrange another marriage for Gu Xici in order to appease him. By then, your engagement with Gu Xici would be over. After that, the emperor and the queen would definitely forgive you, after all, they like you so much."

Xiao Ren said in a tone that everything is under control.

"Brother Xiao Ren is so thoughtful. Let's go to the palace and ask Uncle Emperor for help now."

Where is my knife? Where is my knife? It made me kill this villain.

Ah! (Wen Ning is going crazy)

Xiao Ren looked at Wen Ning lovingly, and Wen Ning nodded at him. Xiao Ren and Wen Ning were about to fly from the house to the roof, but with a bang, they seemed to hit something, and the tiles on the roof fell off, along with three people.

The three of us stared at each other, you looked at me and I looked at you.

Gu Xici was very embarrassed. She was just enjoying eating watermelon on the roof, and since her hands were idle, she had no choice but to put back the tiles that the hero had just taken off, one by one out of her obsessive-compulsive disorder. Who would have thought that the hero would suddenly lose his temper and hit the roof with the heroine.

Fortunately, she was not injured because of her good Qinggong skills, otherwise they would have hurt someone. She did not blame them for their recklessness and secretly found a chance to leave.

"Miss, are you okay?"

The movement on the roof attracted the attention of people outside.

"It's okay, the roof just collapsed... collapsed!"

Wen Ning was still stunned as she looked at everything in front of her. Why were there two men in black? Was she just knocked unconscious?

"What! Miss, be careful, we'll be in right away."

Hearing the sound of the door opening outside the house, Gu Xici and Xiao Ren immediately prepared to find a place to hide, their eyes fixed on the closet.

"Look, a flying saucer."

Gu Xici pointed in the opposite direction, Xiao Ren subconsciously turned his head to look over there, but before Xiao Ren could react, Gu Xici had already hidden in the closet. Xiao Ren hurried over to pull the closet open, but the closet door was held tightly by Gu Xici.
