Chapter 875 The Cold Prince

Gu Chan's heart, which had been hanging in her chest, finally fell down.

As long as the Duke of Zhenguo doesn't really want to deal with her, she doesn't need to think too much about it.

And this problem right now is actually very easy to solve.

Glancing at Gao Lin, who looked aggrieved, Gu Chan said with a suppressed smile, "My Lord, please stop scolding him. Didn't Young Master Gao want to vent his anger for you that day? Otherwise, with his status and position, how could he even look at Miss Guo!"

"Really?" Gao Tianba said with his eyes lighting up.

Gao Lin quickly took over the conversation and said, "Of course, Dad, how could I be interested in a woman like Guo Yu? I just wanted to teach her a lesson and show Guo Pinchuan some color to vent your anger."

"Did I wrong you?" Gao Tianba said with a frown.

Gao Lin laughed awkwardly and didn't dare to say anything more.

Gu Chan gave him a way out, so he just had to go along with it. If he continued to act pretentiously, he would probably get a good beating from his father.

Gu Chan quickly changed the subject and said, "How about this, Lord Duke, since everything has been sorted out, I won't cause you any more trouble. I'll go back to the inn and talk to Feng Hao about it and cancel the engagement with him. I don't want to marry him anyway. If I hadn't been trying to get the documents to pass the customs when I was in Xuanyue City, this wouldn't have happened."

"So, this engagement between you and Feng Hao is just a deal?" Gao Tianba asked.

"Yes, I just wanted to pass the paperwork. Who would have thought that his parents would like me? What virtue do I have? I'm just a little girl from the countryside. I'm really not worthy of him." Gu Chan said with a faint smile.

Gao Tianba nodded with satisfaction.

In this way, he also found out the whole story and could report to the Queen later.

Not wanting to embarrass Gu Chan anymore, he waved his hand and said, "Then go back! Hurry up and solve your mess. I'm not very interested in a little girl like you, and I don't want to get involved."

"Thank you, Lord Duke, for your kindness. I am deeply grateful." Gu Chan said while bowing.

After saying that, she immediately turned and left.

But what she didn't expect was that when she had only taken a few steps towards the gate, a sedan chair suddenly stopped at the gate of the Duke's Mansion.

"Lord Leng has arrived."

The next second, a loud shout was heard at the gate of the mansion.

Gu Chan paused and stood there in a daze.

"Damn! Why is the prince here? I'm about to leave! Isn't this a problem?" Gu Chan frowned and cursed in her heart.

She had just settled the matter when the prince of the Diyue Kingdom arrived. If the prince also listened to the queen and came to deal with her, wouldn't she be in trouble?

Gao Tianba was also stunned. He had never expected that Lord Leng would come. He winked at Gao Lin who was standing beside him and said, "Go, go out and greet Lord Leng for me."

"Yes, Dad." Gao Lin said solemnly.

Then he walked towards the door.

When he passed by Gu Chan, he glanced at her and whispered, "Stand aside, don't rush out, otherwise you will be disrespectful to Prince Leng and you will be punished."

"Oh!" Gu Chan responded silently, and quietly walked aside to wait. Gao Lin quickened his pace and rushed out of the door. After a polite greeting, he quickly welcomed the Leng Prince of Diyue Country into the mansion.

After the two came in, Gu Chan stood in the yard and saw clearly that the cold prince of Diyue Kingdom was actually an old man in his sixties. He had a head full of white hair and a fat body. He walked like a ball, and the flesh on his belly was bouncing back and forth. At first glance, it seemed like seeing a fat hamster walking in. It was really cute.

Gao Tianba did not dare to neglect him, he stood up, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Old Prince, what wind blew you to my house today?"

"I heard from Guo Pinchuan that you, the Duke of Zhenguo, actually sent people to capture a little girl and torture her in your mansion, so I came here specially to see what kind of girl could catch the eye of you, the Duke of Zhenguo!" Prince Leng said with a wry smile.

Gao Tianba's face darkened, and he muttered, "Damn it, it's that bastard Guo Pinchuan again. He actually went behind my back to the old prince to complain about me. Fine, fine, I'll remember this grudge for you."

"Duke Zhenguo, what are you mumbling about?" Prince Leng asked with a smile.

Gao Tianba quickly came back to his senses and said, "It's nothing, old prince, don't listen to Guo Pinchuan's nonsense. I am the Duke of Zhenguo, how could I do such a despicable thing? I just followed the Queen's order and invited this young lady to come over and talk about some business."

After saying that, he looked at Gu Chan who was standing over there and waved at her.

Gu Chan understood, and quickly trotted to Prince Leng to salute and said, "I, Gu Paner, pay my respects to Prince Leng."

"Stand up!" Prince Leng said kindly.

As he said this, he couldn't help but look up at Gu Chan.

Just by taking a look, he discovered that the girl in front of him had actually reached level seven in physical skills, and was definitely a leader among the younger generation of physical skills practitioners!

Reaching out and touching Gu Chan's little head, he praised, "Not bad, you are not only cute and adorable, but also very strong. No wonder Guo Pinchuan, who has such a weird temper, values ​​you so much. If you can be used by our Diyue Kingdom in the future, you will definitely be a great help to the Queen!"

"Your Highness, thank you for the compliment. I'm just a little girl from the country. I don't have such great ability." Gu Chanlianxu said.

"Don't be so modest. If you were incompetent, Guo Pinchuan probably wouldn't think highly of you, let alone come to visit me in person and beg me to come to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to protect you." Prince Leng said with a smile.

Gu Chanle smiled, and the tension in her heart instantly disappeared.

Just now she thought that the old prince was sent by the Queen to deal with her, but now she realized that it was Guo Pinchuan who asked him to protect her, so she didn't need to worry anymore.

Gao Tianba's face turned livid as he listened to the whole thing. In his heart, he wished he could cripple Guo Pinchuan, but in front of Prince Leng, he didn't dare to show it easily. He just held back his anger and didn't dare to flare up easily.

Prince Leng comforted Gu Chan, then glared at Gao Tianba and said, "I will take this girl away. Don't bother her anymore, or I won't let you go easily."

"Don't worry, old prince! I never intended to deal with her. Now that you have taken her away, I have a reason to report to the Queen." Gao Tianba said frankly.

"Okay, you go tell the Queen that I like this little girl very much and I will protect her." Prince Leng said readily.

After saying that, he put his arm around Gu Chan's shoulders and took her away.

Gao Lin hurriedly chased after them, and enthusiastically escorted Prince Leng and Gu Chan to the sedan chair. Then he returned to the courtyard with a gloomy face and said to Gao Tianba, "Dad, that bastard Guo Pinchuan is openly against you! It's a good thing you didn't touch Gu Paner this time, otherwise it would be difficult to explain in front of the old prince just now."

"Hmph! Sooner or later, I will seek revenge on him." Gao Tianba snorted coldly.

After saying that, he turned angrily and walked towards the backyard.

Gao Lin dismissed all the guards, stood there thinking for a while, then quietly left the house and rushed to the inn where Gu Chan was staying.
