Gongsun Mei was standing on the side of the carriage, and the robe that previously covered her exquisite body had long disappeared.
At the moment, she was wearing a white gauze skirt, with water-blue silk and soft smoke tied into an elegant bow around her waist. Her dark hair was gently pulled up with a Wei Ling hairpin stuck at an angle.
Her skin was as crystal clear as jade, without makeup, but her eyebrows contained a hint of charm, and her bright eyes curiously looked at Xue Yan and Yan Kuangshan who were walking towards her.
If Qin Fan were standing here now, he would definitely comment that compared to when he just showed off his figure before, Gongsun Mei's charm skills are now at a higher level.
The combination of pure temperament and looming charm is a fatal weapon for men.
And now Xue Yan was looking at Gongsun Mei with admiration. The moment their eyes met, Xue Yan said:
"I probably understand Miss Gongsun's current situation."
The curiosity in Gongsun Mei's eyes disappeared, and her whole body's temperament also changed. It couldn't be said to be indifferent, but there was always a faint sense of alienation.
"Master Xue, it seems that you have understood my instructions."
Xue Yan nodded: "Your appearance is not accidental. It was Qin Fan's intention for you and me to get to know each other at this moment. However, there are some things that I still need to ask clearly. What is the specific time?"
"Three days ago." Gongsun Mei replied.
"It should be the day I send out the invitation."
"So, why?"
"Why does it matter?"
"I just don't like being manipulated like a chess piece."
"You speak highly of Qin Fan."
"Master Xue does not have a low opinion of Qin Fan, otherwise you and I would not be having this conversation at this moment."
"Then let me ask you again, is it important?"
"He chose a very subtle time, so it doesn't matter."
"What are your conditions?"
"I will not do anything detrimental to the Gongsun family."
"That's all?"
"When I need you, you must stand by my side without hesitation, even if you are the enemy of the entire Gongsun family!"
Xue Yan sighed quietly: "This is actually more stringent than the conditions proposed by Yin Wumei."
Gongsun Mei said calmly: "But you will still agree."
Xue Yan nodded: "Because I feel more at ease with you than with Yin Wumei."
"Then let's do this for now. In three days, I will go to Xuanyang Giant City to look for you."
After saying these words, Gongsun Mei immediately got on the carriage and left. During the entire conversation, except for a distant salute to Yan Kuangshan when leaving, she almost completely ignored it.
Looking at the carriage that had gradually turned into a small black dot, Yan Kuangshan felt bad.
"Well! Well! That's all! That's what you said!"
Xue Yan explained seriously:
"To avoid some unnecessary misunderstandings and to achieve cooperation is the first step."
"Misunderstanding?" Yan Kuangshan realized that he was old and couldn't keep up with his young thinking.
Xue Yan nodded: "The timing of Gongsun Mei's appearance is too coincidental.
Although she was outside Wuyou Villa, she deliberately mentioned that she came to Wuyou Villa because Qin Fan suddenly wanted to start trading.
But there is some specific information that I need to figure out.
After all, a Yin Wumei who didn't know who was standing behind him died, and I don't want another Gongsun Mei who doesn't have his own thoughts to appear.
This is also building basic trust, at least it’s a good start.”
Yan Kuangshan:(ˉ﹃ˉ)
Xue Yan continued: "Of course she is also testing whether I am qualified, and beauty is the first test.
I have to say that this woman has a very strong heart, after all, few women can use their physical advantages as weapons without any burden."
Yan Kuangshan:(ˉ﹃ˉ)
Xue Yan touched his chin and didn't notice Yan Kuangshan's reaction at all:
"I'm a little confused now about Qin Fan's purpose. He should know Gongsun Mei's value better."
Yan Kuangshan:(ˉ﹃ˉ)
After Xue Yan took a deep breath, he temporarily gave up his messy thoughts:
"If that sentence is not intended to sow discord, then City Lord Yan, our situation may be worse than expected!"
Yan Kuangshan:(ˉ﹃ˉ)
"???Why does it still have my business? What do you mean by sowing discord?" Yan Kuangshan recovered from his confusion.
Xue Yan looked at Yan Kuangshan's eyes seriously: "Qin Fan said something in the pavilion."
[I can make it more obvious, is the person Yin Wumei surrendered to, really you? Maybe another person coming to the Chaos Realm to build six gates will have the same result. 】
Yan Kuangshan's face changed slightly, obviously thinking of something.
Xue Yan was silent for a moment and said:
"City Lord Yan, now that you know so much information, it's too late to jump out.
After all, the fact that you, I, and Yin Wumei went to Wuyou Villa together has been witnessed by many people in Xuanyang Giant City."
Yan Kuangshan grabbed Xue Yan's collar, and a terrifying aura suddenly burst out:
"Tell me the truth, kid, did you expect this scene from the moment you posted the post?"
Xue Yan shook his head. Even though his face turned a little pale due to resisting Yan Kuangshan's momentum, he still said firmly:
"City Lord Yan, did you know that Wuyou Villa, including Qin Fan, was like this before?"
Yan Kuangshan let go of his right hand, and after calming down his momentum, he sighed helplessly.
Xue Yan continued: "But when I went to the Realm of Chaos, Lord Nie reminded me of two things."
Yan Kuangshan frowned slightly and motioned for Xue Yan to continue.
"The first thing is that the only person I can rely on in the Xuanyang Domain is you, Lord Yan City, and you are the only one I can trust without reservation."
Yan Kuangshan seemed to be calm, but the corners of his mouth subconsciously turned up, indicating that he was in a good mood.
"As for the second thing... Master Nie originally planned to give me three choices, but he did not go to this realm of chaos. It was because of a message from Prime Minister Yu that this option was added."
When Prime Minister Yu was mentioned, the trace of dissatisfaction hidden in Yan Kuangshan's eyes disappeared. He patted Xue Yan's shoulder solemnly and said:
"I will help you with the next thing, but you should understand that even if I am the city lord of Xuanyang Giant City, the effect of this kind of help may not be as much as the help provided by Gongsun Mei."
Xue Yan nodded:
"As long as I have your support, I can at least be guaranteed to be safe.
It sounds like I really envy Qin Fan, and I don’t know what kind of force is behind him?"
At this time, Yan Kuangshan, who was out of shape during the whole process, suddenly thought of an almost impossible situation:
"Have you ever thought that maybe there is no one behind him?"
Xue Yan shook his head and said: "A strong man who is good at using bows and arrows plus a physical fitness master disguised as a coachman.
At present, this has revealed that there are two Xiantian Realm guards on Qin Fan's side, and coupled with your fear of Wuyou Villa, it is most strange that there are no talents behind him."
"What if their allegiance is to Qin Fan?" Yan Kuangshan asked seriously, and then he felt that this idea was a bit too unbelievable. After all, in this world, strong strength is the foundation and the most powerful way to lurk subordinates.
But Xue Yan began to seriously consider this possibility, and his voice was almost inaudible:
"If this is true, then Qin Fan can't just be described as scary."
