The Divine Doctor and Adorable Consort: The Demonic Emperor is Too Cunning

She felt the world was full of malice, that it had made her lose her composure in front of Gu Jinyi, sob sob...

However, once she started enjoying the food, Fang Qingyou quickly forgot her previous embarrassment, because the food at Qingwulou was quite delicious.

Handsome men by my side, delicious food in front of me, tsk tsk, this feeling is just too good, hahahahaha—

Fang Qingyou wanted to say, "Give me this kind of life for ten thousand years!"

By the time Fang Qingyou and Gu Jinyi finished their meal, it was already getting dark.

"Young Master Gu, thank you for your hospitality. It seems it's getting late, so I'll take my leave now. I will return in seven days to treat Miss Gu."

"Miss Fang, let me take you there."

"Huh?" Fang Qingyou was unsure whether Gu Jinyi was just going to see her off from Qingwu Tower, because his expression seemed to suggest he wanted to take her home.

Gu Jinyi smiled and explained, "It's getting late, and the journey is long. I'm worried about letting Miss Fang go back alone. My carriage is at Qingwu Tower. Please allow me to escort you back."

Fang Qingyou felt so happy she was practically bubbling with joy. She thought she might even wake up laughing in her dreams tonight.

"Young Master Gu, what about Miss Gu..." Fang Qingyou kept telling herself to calm down, but the words she uttered betrayed her thoughts.

"Xinxin will stay at Qingwu Tower and wait for me. I'll come back to pick her up after I bring you back." At this point, Gu Jinyi's smile softened a bit, and for a moment it even seemed to carry a hint of tenderness.

Fang Qingyou deeply felt that Gu Jinyi was sincere, otherwise he wouldn't have arranged things so well. If she were to refuse him again, it would be an outrage against heaven and earth.

Therefore, she finally raised her lips and smiled brightly at Gu Jinyi: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Gu."

Fang Qingyou and Gu Jinyi went downstairs together, but when they reached the entrance of Qingwu Tower, she was startled by what she saw there.

It was getting dark, but a large group of women were still gathered at the entrance of Qingwu Tower, far more than when Fang Qingyou had come before.

Judging from the women's attire, they seemed to be daughters of wealthy families, dressed in fine clothes and accompanied by several maids.

"Young Master Gu, Qingwu Tower seems to be doing very well. There are still so many customers so late." As far as Fang Qingyou knew, Yunyue Kingdom, like many ancient dynasties, was a patriarchal society. However, the restrictions on women were not very strict. Women were not confined to their homes. But at this time, they should all be home eating. Why are they all gathered at Qingwu Tower?

"Perhaps it's just a coincidence." Gu Jinyi smiled slightly, but his expression didn't show much joy.

Fang Qingyou assumed that the Gu family was large and powerful, and that Gu Jinyi was already used to this situation, so she didn't think much of it.

When Fang Qingyou and Gu Jinyi appeared at the entrance of Qingwu Tower, she noticed something was amiss. In that instant, all the women turned to look at Gu Jinyi, their eyes burning with excitement.

Fang Qingyou suddenly realized that all these women had come for Gu Jinyi.

Thinking of this, Fang Qingyou couldn't help but gasp. She was already shocked when Lüye told her about Gu Jinyi's affairs yesterday, and now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she was even more shocked.

The title of the number one young master in the world is indeed well-deserved.

At this moment, Fang Qingyou's sense of happiness soared again. She felt that she should be proud of herself. Gu Jinyi, who was the center of attention, not only invited her to dinner but also offered to take her home.

Haha, this feels like a date. I wish it were a real date.

Soon, Fang Qingyou stopped being so smug.

Because soon, the women who were originally paying attention to Gu Jinyi all turned their attention to her.

Those gazes, sharp and intense, could have pierced her like a sieve.

They were all filled with anger, wishing they could kick her aside and stand next to Gu Jinyi instead.

Just then, a beautifully dressed young woman hurried toward them, seemingly having just arrived at Qingwu Tower. However, unlike the other women who lined up at the entrance to compose poems, she rushed toward Gu Jinyi.

Upon seeing Gu Jinyi, the woman smiled gently: "Young Master Gu? What a coincidence! I was just wondering if it was too late to come to Qingwu Tower, but I didn't expect to run into you."

Fang Qingyou couldn't help but think to herself, "This girl's flirting skills are really terrible. Anyone can tell from her expression that she's after Gu Jinyi."

"So it's Miss Shi San." Gu Jinyi smiled slightly, his manner polite, yet he exuded a sense of distance.

This was Fang Qingyou's feeling, but Miss Shi clearly didn't think so. She was actually very happy because Gu Jinyi treated her politely.

This Miss Shi is named Shi Wantong.

Shi Wantong's smile froze considerably when she saw Fang Qingyou beside Gu Jinyi: "Young Master Gu, may I ask which family this young lady is from? I've never seen her before?"

That gaze held doubt, disdain, and anger.

Shi Wantong was furious. Fang Qingyou looked ordinary and unremarkable, dressed in shabby clothes and so ugly. How dare such a woman stand next to Gu Jinyi?!

Fang Qingyou could guess without even thinking that Shi Wantong was cursing her in her heart. She rolled her eyes speechlessly. These women were interested in Gu Jinyi, so why should they pay attention to her?

She was just standing next to him, so why are they all pointing the finger at her?

Fang Qingyou understood these women very well. It was normal for them to be infatuated with Gu Jinyi. A man like him was indeed hard to resist. It would be abnormal if they didn't like him.

But if they really have the ability, they should use it on Gu Jinyi to get his attention. That's the right way.

“She is my friend.” Gu Jinyi didn’t say much to Shi Wantong. “Miss Shi, we have some things to attend to today, so we’ll be leaving now. Goodbye.”

Facing Shi Wantong, Gu Jinyi still smiled gently, then turned around and left Qingwu Tower with Fang Qingyou.

Fang Qingyou felt Shi Wantong's gaze behind her fall on her like a sharp blade, while the gazes of the other women on the other side were equally hostile.

However, Fang Qingyou not only did not back down, but also proudly raised her chin.

What's the use of these people hating her? The more they look down on her, the more she'll make them envious and jealous.

She may be poor, and she may not be pretty for the time being, but now it is she who stands beside Gu Jinyi, not these self-righteous young ladies from wealthy families!

Hmph, let's piss them off!
