That woman with exquisite facial features wore a black long dress which showed off her coldness and curvy figure.
It was Gonggong.
Darrylâs expression changed upon seeing Gonggong and was almost in tears!
âThis Gonggong is really haunting me! Why is she here again?â
Hmm?
Chang Er was stunned as well at the same moment before she frowned slightly and looked at Gonggong with a
complicated expression.
Gonggong approached them at that moment and respectfully bowed toward Chang Er. âLady Chang Er!â
Gonggongâs gaze was fixated on Darryl while she said that.
âGonggong!â
Chang Er came to her senses as she gently opened her mouth and said, âAre you here on Yang Jianâs orders to take
me back?â
Gonggong smiled and replied, âLady Chang Er! Donât worry, Iâm not here to stop you from leaving.â
Gonggong then stopped smiling and pointed at Darryl. âHeâs the reason Iâm here!â
Yes, Gonggong came for Darryl.
She badly wanted the Heavenly Halberd, hence she had not given up thoughts of obtaining it even when Darryl was
locked up in prison. Therefore, she had been observing the prison cellâs movements all day long.
She noticed that Darryl and the others were gone when she went to check on them in the prison earlier. Gonggong
was shocked, but did not report it to Yang Jian and went after them alone.
Chang Er shuddered at that moment. âWhat? W-what was going on? Why did Gonggong come here specifically for
Darryl? What relationship do they have?â
Chang Er asked curiously, âGonggong, why did you come all the way here just for Darryl?â
Gonggongâs eyes flashed as she smiled lightly. âThis is a personal matter between Darryl and I. Lady Chang Er,
donât ask me any further!â
âHaha!â
Darryl could not help but laugh out loud upon hearing that as he playfully looked at Gonggong. âGonggong, are you
into me? Is that why you keep chasing after me? Do tell me directly if thatâs the case instead of being shy. I might
even agree to it. I have many women after all and adding one more would do no harm!â
Darryl deliberately put on a frivolous look when he said that.
Swoosh!
Gonggong trembled with her flushing red face from extreme embarrassment and fury. She then glared at Darryl
and coldly said, âDarryl, Iâll make you wish you were dead!â
Gonggong suppressed her rage and seriously said to Chang Er, âLady Chang Er, please donât stop me later on when
I take Darryl away. I wonât tell anyone, not even Yang Jian about you escaping prison as repayment!â
âNo!â
Chang Er without any hesitation coldly said. She still needed Darrylâs help to investigate the truth of Emperor Hou
Yiâs death to clear her name. How could she let Gonggong take him away?
Woo!
Gonggongâs face darkened upon hearing that as her tone turned cold. âLady Chang Er, please donât blame me if
thatâs the case.â
âInsolence!â
Tu Xingsun walked over and glared at Gonggong at that moment. âGonggong, what do you mean by that? Youâre
going to report this to Yang Jian?â
Gonggong sneered with her unquestionable tone. âNot that you can care whether I report to him or not. Iâve said
what I needed to say and Iâll have no other choice if Lady Chang Er refuses to comply.â
In truth, Gonggong was still fearful of Chang Er. However, Chang Er was the main suspect in Emperor Hou Yiâs
death at the moment, hence she did not need to be afraid of her. More importantly, Gonggong could not care
anymore to get the Heavenly Halberd.
âGreat! Great!â Chang Er was so furious she was trembling as she ordered Tu Xingsun, âTake her down!â
Chang Er could not hide the anger in her heart when she said that. She was still the highly respectable Lady Chang
Er despite suffering injustice. Who the hell did Gonggong think she was? How dare she disrespect her?
Buzz!
Tu Xingsunâs internal energy erupted and attacked Gonggong upon her orders!
