3037 His Highness Ying 4 (1/2)
”Lord Yan, aren't you curious?” Gu Ying asked in a somewhat flippant manner.
Objectively speaking, Gu Ying was very good looking, especially if one was meeting him for the first time. However his looks were deceiving as anyone looking at him would assume he had a pure, simple heart.
However, Jun Wu Xie, who knew all too well his true, violent nature, could not associate any kind characteristics with him.
Upon careful inspection, Jun Wu Xie realised Gu Ying and His Lord looked similar. The difference was the Gu Ying looked brasher and had more vigour while the Lord looked more elegant and understated. There were similarities between them but you had to look closely to see them.
But there was one big similarity between them.
And that was...
They were both perfect pretenders.
Both of them have managed to conceal just how cruel and greedy they were.
Jun Wu Xie could not help but think of Zi Jin, the sweet innocent girl who was bewitched by Gu Ying. It was only after many years that Jun Wu Xie found out that the girl who was always wearing a mask and died for her was Zi Jin.
Looking at Gu Ying, all Jun Wu Xie could think of was the terrible things he did in the Lower and Middle Realms. No matter how good looking he was, it was just the skin that a monster was wearing.
”As a subordinate, I just need to obey, and I don't need to have any curiosity.” Jun Wu Xie responded carefully. She had not yet ascertained the relationship between Gu Ying and His Lord. At this time, maintaining stability was key.
