Chapter 165 The Beautiful Prodigy in the Immortal Cultivation Novels 22

After the fairy boat stopped, Xu Xianhe returned to the Xu family, and Gu Jingyun went to his residence first under the guidance of the Jiang family.

Jiang Wanwan was participating in a meeting, and Gu Jingyun was sitting on the stone steps outside the hall waiting for her.

"Brother Jingyun, you are here at the Jiang family."

Along with a cry of surprise, a beautiful figure walked over from the corner.

Jiang Linger's beautiful big eyes lit up instantly, her pretty face flushed slightly, and she walked briskly to the stone steps, with her hands behind her back, perfectly interpreting the posture of a shy girl.

There seemed to be a trace of sadness between Gu Jingyun's handsome eyebrows. He looked up at Jiang Linger and simply bowed his hands lightly: "Fairy Jiang."

After saying hello, he continued to sit there without saying anything else to Jiang Linger, his eyes staring down, as if he was thinking about something.

Jiang Ling'er pursed her lips and asked sadly, "Brother Jingyun, are you waiting for my cousin?"

However, Gu Jingyun seemed to have completely ignored her question and still did not respond.

His mind had already drifted far away. He concentrated on counting the steps under his feet, silently wondering how long it would take for Jiang Wanwan to come out.

Seeing that Gu Jingyun ignored her, Jiang Linger couldn't help but feel angry.

But she still pretended to be innocent on the surface, sighed softly and said: "This meeting is mainly to discuss the Taoist couple ceremony between my cousin and the young master of the Murong family. It's great... When can I find my own happiness like my cousin..."

At the end of her speech, her voice gradually became low, revealing a hint of melancholy and envy.

Upon hearing the words "Daoist Couple Ceremony", Gu Jingyun's originally dull face finally showed a hint of emotion.

He lowered his eyes slightly, as if trying to hide the pain and helplessness deep in his heart, and murmured to himself: "Really? Is Senior Sister happy..."

Jiang Ling'er curled her fingertips slightly, and pressed so hard that her nails dug deeply into her flesh, but she didn't feel any pain at all.

She never expected that just the mention of the news that Jiang Wanwan was about to form a Taoist couple with someone else would make Gu Jingyun so distraught and absent-minded.

In Jiang Linger's heart, Gu Jingyun had already been her fiancé. She could not tolerate the existence of another woman in his heart, especially when this person was her most hated cousin!

However, despite the jealousy and anger in her heart, she still maintained an innocent smile on her face.

"Brother Jingyun, do you have a special person in your heart that you hope to become a Taoist partner with?" Jiang Linger asked softly, with a hint of expectation and temptation in her tone.

Gu Jingyun was obviously a little stunned. He was silent for a moment, making Jiang Linger think that he would not answer this question.

However, just when she was about to give up waiting, Gu Jingyun slowly said, "Yes."

This simple word pierced Jiang Linger's heart like a sharp sword.

But she gritted her teeth, trying not to show her emotions, and continued to ask in a gentle voice: "Who is that? Do I know him?"

Jiang Ling'er wanted him to completely give up the idea of ​​Jiang Wanwan.

Unfortunately, Gu Jingyun was completely unaware and just spoke slowly: "Of course you know him."

Jiang Linger had never expected that Gu Jingyun would admit it so straightforwardly.

Usually, when men are faced with the fact that the woman they love is about to get married, they tend to deny it or choose to remain silent.

"Really..." A trace of disappointment and sadness appeared on her beautiful face, and tears flashed in her eyes: "I really envy the girl who can be loved by Brother Jingyun. How great it would be if Ling'er could become that person..."

According to past experience, at this time, those men usually sigh sadly: "If only the person I liked was you, then I wouldn't... " and so on.

However, this time Jiang Linger miscalculated.

Because she was facing the dull man Gu Jingyun, who said bluntly without hesitation: "You are not that person, and you can't be compared with her."

He seemed to have no idea how to express himself tactfully, and there was no concealment in his words.

Jiang Linger's prepared words were immediately interrupted. Her face was stiff and she smiled awkwardly, almost failing to maintain her expression.

This damn wood! Why is it so stupid? It's just smelly and hard!

Generally speaking, shouldn't a normal man answer no?

As long as he said no, she could continue to follow his words: "Do I have a chance to be the one in your heart?"

Then he would be very considerate and say some clever words, and then he might be so moved that he would hug Jiang Ling'er tightly.

It happened that Jiang Wanwan walked out at this time. Seeing this scene, she would definitely misunderstand the relationship between the two of them. Then there would definitely be a gap between Gu Jingyun and Jiang Wanwan, and she would be able to take advantage of the opportunity.

Unfortunately, Gu Jingyun didn't seem to want to continue talking to Jiang Linger. He stood up and turned to look towards the hall, as if he was expecting the beautiful figure to appear soon.

As if Gu Jingyun's inner prayer was heard, a charming red figure slowly walked out of the hall. The hem of her red skirt gently swept across the stone steps. The sunlight fell on her beautiful face, making her skin look even whiter than snow.

Jiang Wanwan walked down the stone steps lightly with a charming smile on her face: "Jingyun, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Gu Jingyun was stunned for a moment, and felt that his heartbeat seemed to slow down.

This was the first time that Senior Sister Jiang called him "Jingyun" so intimately.

In the past, Senior Sister Jiang always called him "Junior Brother Gu", but now she suddenly changed the name...

Is he no longer just a simple junior brother in her heart?

If he could occupy even a tiny bit of space in her heart, Gu Jingyun would be willing to pay any price for it.

Jiang Wanwan of course saw Jiang Linger standing next to Gu Jingyun, but she didn't want to pay attention to her.

"Cousin..." Jiang Ling'er called out with a hint of grievance, obviously feeling a little sad about Jiang Wanwan's neglect.

Her gaze then turned to Gu Jingyun, but found that the latter had no expression on his face, as if he was oblivious to everything that was happening before his eyes.

Jiang Wanwan turned to Gu Jingyun and said, "Jingyun, let me take you to the Jiang family's shop." As soon as she finished speaking, she walked towards the bottom of the stairs.

"Okay, Senior Sister Jiang." Gu Jingyun followed without hesitation, and his handsome face seemed to come alive when facing Jiang Wanwan.

At this moment, as long as he could walk side by side with her, his heart would be satisfied.

Gu Jingyun didn’t dare to ask for anything else…
