Chapter 543: Unknown Origin
Seeing Gu Wanwan coming, Guo Cheng immediately got up, stood with his head down, and waited for her to speak respectfully.
Gu Wanwan swept all this into his eyes, and his attitude was very good, but if he thought that this would make her let him go, then he was wrong. The horse's feet were exposed by himself, so he couldn't complain about her getting to the bottom of it.
Gu Wanwan's eyes were as sharp as needles, and when Guo Cheng felt it, he had to lower his head again, he already had a premonition that the wind and rain were coming.
But to his surprise, Gu Wanwan said with a smile: "Guo Cheng, thank you for the food, it is very delicious." ”
She could see that Guo Cheng had heightened her vigilance, and from the previous conversation, it could be seen that he was definitely a difficult character who did not eat hard and soft, and if she wanted to find a breakthrough, she had to change her strategy first.
"Don't dare, this is what Guo Cheng should do, the princess doesn't have to say thank you." Guo Cheng hurriedly said, but he was a little puzzled in his heart. Gu Wanwan's appearance when he walked towards him was clearly to question him, why did he open his mouth but it was exactly the opposite of what he expected?
"Where did you get such delicious food?" Gu Wanwan's attitude was still kind, but she quietly turned the topic to the issues she cared about.
This place is high and inaccessible. She carefully recalled the scene when she came, and it would take half an hour to leave this wood, even if she was quick to get away, and it would take at least an hour to come and go. Beyond the woods, there was an endless open space, and it should be a long way from where there was food to sell.
But in such an hour, the people sent out by Guo Cheng came back with fragrant roast duck and pancakes, and there was clearly a big loophole during this period.
Guo Cheng should be very clear in his heart, which is why he behaves so cautiously and cautiously when facing her.
Originally, she behaved so kindly, it was okay for people to let their guards off, but Guo Cheng was not an ordinary person after all, he suddenly smelled Gu Wanwan's true intentions, and the answer in his mouth became extremely cunning: "If the princess still wants to eat, Guo Cheng will order someone to buy it again." ”
As he spoke, he really turned around and did it. He used the same trick twice this morning, did he really think she was a fool?
"No, you can't eat too much of the most delicious things, especially something of unknown origin." Gu Wanwan said in a cold voice.
Guo Cheng was stunned, and quickly turned back to Gu Wanwan and said, "Princess, you are too worried, Guo Cheng is ordered to protect the princess, and he will definitely do his best to ensure that the princess is safe, and he will definitely not do anything to harm the princess." ”
"You don't have to be so nervous, I just said that the food came from an unknown source, and I didn't say you poisoned the food." If you don't have a thief's heart, why do you need to bring out the so-called order right away? The more he was in such a hurry to argue, the more it proved that he had a ghost in his heart.
"But the phrase 'unknown origin' proves that the princess is suspicious of Zaixia, doesn't it?" If she was really relieved, she would not ask again and again, let alone use the words "unknown origin" to provoke him.
Feeling Guo Cheng's gaze, Gu Wanwan raised his eyes and touched his calm and deep eyes.
It was rare for him to face her skeptical gaze like this, but even that didn't stop her from giving up.
"If you are really innocent, you can explain it to me, so why bother with my suspicions?" If he is really innocent, he should come up with a strong statement to gag her, instead of facing her with a straight face and making her feel that he has been wronged.
Guo Cheng's body was shocked, he couldn't speak, he no longer looked at Gu Wanwan, lowered his eyes and stared at the ground, as if he was looking for a crack in the ground to get into, his appearance really made people have to doubt it!
"Can't tell? Where the hell did the stuff come from? "Now is not the time for him to do it without saying it!
"It was bought from outside the woods, princess, you don't have to worry about it." Guo Cheng bowed his head and replied, his salty words trying to divert the topic.
It seems that he doesn't know how to say no, otherwise I don't know how long he will be fooled by himself.
"Is there a house outside the woods? Why don't I remember this? Or is there someone outside the woods who is so quick and easy? Gu Wanwan's eyes were focused on Guo Cheng's face, carefully capturing the changes in his face.
Guo Cheng obviously didn't expect her to ask this question, from the initial tactful remarks to the direct attack that was good at not giving people defense, not everyone could withstand it.
"There is no one outside the woods, but please trust the princess that the forest is completely safe, and you will not be harmed, princess." Guo Cheng's tone solemnly assured, but such seemingly comforting words were actually an ingenious means for him to change the topic.
"No one answered? This is not in line with your Yan Wangye's style, the cunning rabbit also has three holes, not to mention that your Yan Wangye is still the head of the Wushuanglou, and the places where he settled must be all over the four countries, if it weren't too many to count, you wouldn't even guess where he was, right? ”
It was a terrible feeling to want to hide everything from her, to say nothing, so that she didn't even know what she was in.
Gu Wanwan's sarcastic and aggressive words didn't seem to have any effect on Guo Cheng, his face was still calm like a pool of stagnant water, which made people want to rush up and give him two slaps to see if he was in pain, but he still didn't feel indifferent.
"Princess, in fact, you don't have to worry too much, as your two friends analyzed last night, the prince will be fine. When the prince finishes dealing with the matter at hand, he will naturally come over to meet the princess and ask the princess to wait patiently. ”
Gu Wanwan really didn't expect Guo Cheng to reply to her words, it was like comforting her lonely heart.
"Who said I wanted to see him? Don't be so clever, I just need him to appear in front of me and make things clear! Gu Wanwan glared at Guo Cheng and shouted angrily.
She just wanted that! Even if she did lose her patience, she wouldn't have the patience to waste any more time here, so she didn't really want to see him.
Gu Wanwan's sudden increase in volume attracted the attention of the people around him, and Bai Wutong and Qingcheng immediately came towards this side.
"Princess, what's wrong?" Bai Wutong walked quickly to Gu Wanwan's side, glanced at Guo Cheng, who had provoked her anger, and asked with concern.
"Bai Wutong, senior brother, I don't think it's safe here, let's go!" Gu Wanwan retracted her gaze and stared at Guo Cheng, and after saying this to Bai Wutong and Qingcheng, she turned around and left.
She can see it, it's not that Guo Cheng doesn't want to say it, but Yan Wushuang didn't give him the right to speak. For a person who is loyal to his master, what his master does not allow him to say, even if he is killed, he will not say it.
So forget it, she doesn't want to embarrass Guo Cheng anymore!
He could not say where he had gone or what he had done, but if he didn't even say when he would show up, he really felt like a fool to wait like this.
"No! You can't leave! As Guo Cheng's words sounded, the people led by him all got up and surrounded them, blocking the way of the three of them.
"If the princess wants to go, you can leave, if you dare to stop the princess, you are looking for death!" Bai Wutong stood in front of Gu Wanwan and scolded everyone coldly.
"Your Excellency's tone is so big!" Guo Cheng also replied coldly, looking at Bai Wutong with clear disdain, "If you want to kill all of us, I'm afraid you don't have that ability!" ”
There are more than 20 people on his side, how can he be afraid of Bai Wutong alone?
"A lot of people doesn't necessarily mean you can win, right?" Guo Cheng's arrogant tone made the silent Qingcheng unhappy, so he opened his mouth to shoot back at him, "Lord Yan saved us and others, and we were grateful, but how could it be a hero to stay so strongly?" If it spreads, it will ruin your reputation! ”
The most important thing for people in the rivers and lakes is reputation, and wherever he goes, he is nothing more than a face, but Qingcheng still underestimated Guo Cheng, and words that are useful to most people will not play a role in him at all.
"We're not heroes, and reputation is not a big deal for us." The corners of Guo Cheng's mouth raised a sneer, "We only know that we have left Princess Wanwan on the orders of the prince, and we must not let Princess Wanwan leave." ”
Another order! Sure enough, for these people, the master's command can be greater than heaven.
"In that case, there is no need to say more!" Bai Wutong had lost his patience, and when the words fell, he drew his sword and held on.
Originally, he didn't want to stay here, but because the princess didn't speak, he didn't know how to mention it. Now that the princess has made it clear that she wants to leave this place, no one can force her to stay!
He just fought for his life, and he didn't want the princess to stay here and wait for the arrival of that Yan Wushuang!
"Thanks to you, you still keep saying that you are grateful for the prince's life-saving grace, I think you are wolf-hearted, and the prince will help you out of trouble when you are in danger. But you don't even want to see the face of your benefactor, so you have to force you to leave, if my Guo Cheng does what you want today, I will really be ashamed of the prince. ”
After Guo Cheng finished speaking, he also pulled out his sword, and the other subordinates followed suit, and for a while, Gu Wanwan and the three of them were besieged by everyone under the sword. Last night, she counted twenty-two of them, including Guo Cheng. Twenty-two people against three people, which means that each of them has to deal with seven people, and Guo Cheng, whose martial arts are no less than those under Bai Wutong or Qingcheng, the pressure is not ordinary.
"Guo Cheng, we don't want to embarrass you, so please don't embarrass us." Gu Wanwan pulled Bai Wutong by the hand, trying to make a final persuasion to Guo Cheng.
She also knew that her attitude was not very good, but she just wanted to leave here, and she didn't mean to make enemies with them or Yan Wushuang at all. She just didn't want to wait any longer, because she had no idea what Yan Wushuang was doing at the moment.
Is there really something to be busy with, or someone to accompany her, so I can't take the time to meet her.
