Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy

When the young eunuch returned with the food box, he was told that Gu Yao had already left the palace and returned home.

The young eunuch felt a sense of relief, relieved that Gu Yao had finally ended this torment, but also a little disappointed, as Lord Gu hadn't even had a taste of the snack yet.

Gu Yao had been drenched in the rain for so long, and the wind and cold had entered his body. His already exhausted body was now even more dilapidated.

That very night, he developed a high fever that lasted for several days. The imperial physicians who were ordered to treat him were helpless. In the end, they took a risk and used acupuncture, supplemented with countless rare medicinal herbs, to barely keep Gu Yao alive.

In the following days, Gu Yao was also in a daze, often unconscious. His already thin face became even thinner and more unrecognizable.

Whether it was during those two hours or not, Xi Yue withdrew the wanted notice and changed it to a missing person notice.

Upon hearing this news, Gu Yao's face, which had been filled with worry for days, finally broke into a genuine smile for the first time.

True beauty lies in the bone structure, not just the skin. Even with a lingering sickly look on her face, Gu Yao's beauty was not diminished in the slightest; on the contrary, it made her even more pitiful.

Looking out the window at the lotus flowers that had already withered and faded, and the neglected lotus pond with its rotten lotus leaves and stems standing crookedly, it looked particularly desolate.

Just like his body and this Prime Minister's mansion.

They've reached the end of the road.

Turning his gaze away, Gu Yao looked at the miscellaneous books in his hand, but his thoughts drifted far away, wondering if he would ever be able to drink the osmanthus wine he had buried in the courtyard again.

Thinking of this, Gu Yao's eyes dimmed somewhat.

Shen Zi'an has also taken action, dragging the Gu family out of the quagmire of the capital city. Being dead is the best identity.

On the first day of the eighth lunar month, the Ministry of Justice conducted an investigation and listed a series of "outrageous" crimes committed by Gu Yao, sentencing the entire Gu family to be executed.

Along with the imperial edict, Xi Yue's secret guards entered the palace, bringing news of the deaths of Gu's two elders and the entire second branch of the Gu family.

They tried to escape by sea, but the ship was hijacked by pirates. By the time they caught the pirates by following the clues of the ship, everyone on board had died and their bodies were thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

However, based on the belongings of the victims recovered from the pirates and the pirates' confessions, it is highly likely that the entire Gu family perished.

Upon hearing Ying Yi's report, Xi Yue's eyes darkened. He waved for him to leave, then turned and entered a dungeon.

Gu Yao's hands and feet were chained to the wall. Poisoned, he could only hang helplessly, suspended by the chains, looking like a piece of dried meat hanging on the wall, his posture pathetic and ridiculous. His half-naked body was even more humiliating.

His pale, thin face and lifeless, empty eyes were particularly eerie in the dimly lit dungeon when he stared intently at you.

Xi Yue, however, was not afraid at all. He slowly stepped forward, turned Gu Yao's face around, looked into his empty eyes, and smiled.

Those slender, pale fingers lightly brushed over the instruments of torture in the iron tray, their eyes filled with interest, as if they were choosing a lucky one.

Xi Yue picked up a leather whip, examined it carefully, and nodded, seemingly extremely satisfied.

He turned to look at Gu Yao, his tone both pleasant and dangerous, "Gu Aiqing, tell me, can this whip pry open your mouth?"

Gu Yao remained silent, unwilling to pay him any attention.

What did I do wrong? Why is this person humiliating me like this?

Seeing Gu Yao's defiant and unyielding demeanor, Xi Yue narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint flashing within them.

"Minister Gu, I ask you this once: who is the person you love? Whom do you take me for as a substitute?"

He didn't mention that Gu Yao had used him as a substitute, which would be a great humiliation for an emperor.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yao suddenly looked up, staring at Xi Yue with an utterly absurd and bewildered expression, as if asking why he would ask such a question.

With his drooping eyes and questioning gaze, Gu Yao appeared even more innocent and pitiful, but Xi Yue felt no pity for him, only that his posture was pretentious.

With a fierce look in his eyes and a flick of his wrist, the whip left a vibrant mark on that flawless skin.

Gu Yao's face turned pale with pain, but he gritted his teeth and swallowed back all the groans of pain.

He was unwilling and did not want to show weakness in front of Xi Yue.

Xi Yue raised her hand and lashed out with the whip twice more, adding a touch of rosy hue to the fair skin. Combined with Gu Yao's restrained yet stubborn expression, it created a kind of cruel beauty that made one want to take more.

If you do anything to him, he will only struggle helplessly under your control. His jade-like face, tinged with rosy hues, and his starry eyes, misty with tears, will make you want to abuse him, leaving an indelible mark on his fair and flawless complexion.

The traces that belong only to you.

Xi Yue's eyes darkened, but he only cursed himself in his heart.

She really is a fairy, but he thinks she's dirty.

Who knows how many times he slept with that "old friend"?

Xi Yue inevitably thought of the young master again.

How could a pampered young master like that have the courage to lure away those desperate criminals all by himself?

He recalled the bloodstains on the reeds, so vivid and beautiful.

It was so poignant and beautiful, yet so pitiful.

He wanted to ask the young master, "Does it hurt?"

But that opportunity will never come again.

Amidst repeated deceptions and treachery, the sincere young man gradually ascends to a divine position in Xi Yue's heart.

Gu Yao gritted his teeth, large beads of sweat dripping from his forehead.

It really hurts!

Out of the corner of his eye, Gu Yao knew that Xi Yue was reminiscing about his "old friend". It is said that the deceased will be infinitely beautified in the hearts of the living, which is why the white moonlight is the white moonlight.

With the White Moonlight buff and the death buff, especially if it's to save oneself, the basic attributes are maxed out, making one practically invincible.

What expression would Xi Yue make if he discovered that the person he hated was the same person he loved?

Gu Yao was very much looking forward to it.

He knew it was about time; it was time to reveal the truth.

If Gu Le'an is to die, he shouldn't die in a dark and damp dungeon.

If you're going to die, you should decide for yourself, and die in a bright and warm place.

He'd whip him twice, and even dare to poison his wretched body; then he'd make sure Xi Yue lived the rest of his life in regret.

He wanted Xi Yue to know that he had personally cut off his beloved's last chance at life.

Gu Yao, panting heavily, had 0529 activate half of the shielded pain.

The burning pain on his body instantly intensified, making Gu Yao's mind go blank. He was in so much pain that he felt dizzy and semi-conscious, but the pain kept him from completely falling into darkness.

That feeling was absolutely invigorating.

Xi Yue snapped out of his daze and raised his hand to lash out with the whip again.

The person who would have twitched in pain when the whip hit them just moments ago is now completely unresponsive.

Gu Yao wanted to curse after being struck by the sudden whip, but he swallowed the words back.

Xi Yue frowned, looking at the person hanging on the wall. He was barely breathing and his face was deathly pale.

That familiar bluish-gray complexion made Xi Yue panic.

That winter night, his mother had the same expression, and her hands gradually grew cold in his grasp.

Could Gu Yao also...?

No, he can't die!

He had not yet taken revenge on the person who had played him for a fool.

How could he die?

Xi Yue made up a good reason for himself, but deliberately ignored the panic he couldn't hide in that instant.

Or perhaps, they are unwilling to admit that their heart can still be moved by someone who deceived and played them.

He quickly put the person down, picked them up, and left the dungeon.

His footsteps were quick and disorderly.
