Huxin blinked and looked at the elegantly speaking Gu Xuanhong, her eyes flickering, unable to tell whether the smile or mischievous glint on his exquisite, devilishly handsome face was genuine.
The Vast Emperor watched the two exchange glances, his expression darkening as he cleared his throat, directing a displeased glare at Huxin, though his words were aimed at Gu Xuanhong.
"Hmph! What is she being straightforward about? She's simply lacking sense! Being sold out and still counting the money for others! All day long, she treats my concern and admonitions as mere background noise, only knowing how to stir up jealousy and trouble! Besides that, she's wasteful and neglectful of her duties! She brings shame to the Xia Family yet thinks herself beautiful!"
It seemed that the Vast Emperor felt uncomfortable unless he could poke at Huxin with a few sharp words. Huxin realized that speaking up was wrong, but remaining silent was also wrong.
Huxin lowered her gaze to her toes and murmured softly, "Your Majesty, please do not be angry. Huxin knows she was wrong. In the past, concerning the Fourth Prince, I caused both Your Majesty and my father much worry. I hope Your Majesty can forgive Huxin for being young and foolish, blinded by emotions which led to a series of absurd actions. From now on, Huxin will diligently fulfill her duties and remain within proper bounds, never again acting arrogantly. I ask Your Majesty to supervise me! If I fall short in any way, Huxin will correct it promptly."
After speaking, Huxin cautiously glanced at the Vast Emperor. Her expression was innocent and pure to an extreme degree, yet it also conveyed just the right amount of grievance.
The Vast Emperor was momentarily taken aback, seemingly unable to believe these words came from Huxin's mouth. Looking at her innocent and aggrieved demeanor reminded him of Huxin's mother, that bold and decisive woman who loved fiercely. If this girl could truly find her way back from her mistakes regarding Fourth Brother, perhaps her future achievements would surpass those of her mother!
While the Vast Emperor was lost in thought, Gu Xuanhong, dressed in a flowing white robe that highlighted his exceptional grace, stood up. The hem of his finely woven white robe traced a serene arc across the floor like blooming white lotus flowers slowly opening up—elegant as clouds.
Seeing Gu Xuanhong rise, Huxin instinctively took a small step back. The next moment, she heard Gu Xuanhong speak lightly in her direction.
"Your Majesty, it is getting late; I shall take my leave first. As for Miss Xia, I will escort her back to Xia Manor."
After finishing his words, Gu Xuanhong's gaze rested quietly on Huxin. His exquisitely beautiful features momentarily dimmed all the lights in Liuli Palace! He was a man whose beauty could overshadow all things in heaven and earth—enough to make every woman in the world swoon!
Huxin did not expect Gu Xuanhong to send her away, and she looked at Vast Emperor with a pitiful expression.
Although Vast Emperor had not given her a good face since she entered, as a ruler, being able to show her such an unknown side made Vast Emperor seem to embody the saying: "The deeper the love, the harsher the criticism!"
This reflects a common flaw in most people; they are polite and courteous in front of strangers but become simple and blunt in front of family.
Vast Emperor is also just an ordinary person. If he can treat Xia Huxin as family, it means she has gained a solid backing! Although accompanying a ruler is like accompanying a tiger, for Huxin, who only has a month of memories, it is crucial to rely on this strong support first and then slowly develop what she wants step by step!
Sitting idly in this feudal dynasty is definitely not her style!
Vast Emperor's stern gaze fixed on Huxin, and his words were even sharper and more merciless.
"Go, go, go! Hurry up and take her away! I can't stand looking at her here! I was going to keep her here for dinner! For the sake of my health, I don't want to see her for another moment! Xuanhong Brother, you just have to reluctantly take this silly Girl back to Xia Family! Hurry up and take her away!"
Take her away?
Huxin couldn't help but twitch her mouth fiercely. She was a living person, okay? How exactly was she supposed to be taken away? He should show her how he would do it!
