3088. Chapter 3087 Loving you is an addiction I can't quit [1]
Even if the city lord liked her no matter how much he liked her, he would never take out the magic seal for the sake of her whom he had only met a few times.
"You don't seem to believe that the city lord would take out the magic seal for you?"
Lan Shengxue snorted coldly.
From the corner of his eye, Gong Qianjue saw the city lord's indifferent look, and he was startled. Even through the mask, he was still unsure of what he was thinking, but now, with an arrow on the string, he had to shoot.
"Lan Shengxue, how about taking a gamble with your life and mine?"
"What to bet on?"
"I guess the city lord will obediently hand over the magic seal for you."
"nerve."
"By the way, I also want to show you how much the city lord loves you."
"madman!"
Gong Qianjue laughed softly, pulled Lan Shengxue to him, put his arms around her, pinched her neck with his hands, and raised his eyes to look at the city lord.
Eye to eye!
This was the first time that Gong Qianjue and the city lord faced off head-on.
"Lord City Lord, the next step will depend on your performance."
Before Di Yunshang could speak, Yiran spoke first, "Gong Qianjue, there is a life and death contract between Lan Shengxue and you. If you kill her, you won't be able to live."
"Of course I know this."
"So you can't kill Lan Shengxue at all. Since you can't kill Lan Shengxue, why should we, the city lord, be threatened by you?"
"Why?" Gong Qianjue twitched her lips, "Because this person is not your city lord!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Lan Shengxue, you are no stranger to the person in your heart, right?"
Lan Shengxue frowned, her heart pounding because of Gong Qianjue's words, "What on earth do you want to say?"
"Lord City Lord, are you still not planning to show your true face now? Or...should I address you as Demon Emperor?"
What?
Lan Shengxue suddenly opened her eyes wide.
Even Shangguan Ruoxue came back to her senses. She looked at Di Yunshang blankly. What did Gong Qianjue say just now?
When Lan Shengxue heard Gong Qianjue say the word 'Demon Emperor', her whole body trembled. Emperor Yunshang...?
This person is...
Lan Shengxue looked at the city lord without blinking, remembering the first time she saw his back, the second time she saw him wearing a mask on the observation deck, and the third time she went into the room to meet him.
Familiar ambergris.
"Chief executive, your city lord also likes ambergris?"
"Yes, ambergris has a special smell, but there are always many people who like it. Is there anything wrong with it?"
Recalling what Yiran said, Lan Shengxue didn't take it to heart at the time. Every time she met with the city lord later, he didn't speak and sat behind the screen. At that time, she was curious about what kind of person the city lord was, and what kind of person he and the emperor were.
Yun Shang likes the same spices, so the quality must not be much different.
Until she saw the city lord in the secret passage, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity and didn't think much about it...
"City Lord, are you the City Lord of Strange City?"
"How about... you take off the mask and let me see what the city lord looks like?"
"You want to take off my mask? Only the wife I recognize can take it off. Do you want to be my wife?"
"But I'm attracted to you."
"I wasn't kidding just now, I've fallen in love with you."
"I'm serious."
"..."
Lan Shengxue stared blankly at the city lord, remembering what he had said to her in her mind. Even now, she just thinks it was his whim and a joke.
