260 To Cooperatively Feign (1/2)
For now, the problem that laid before the both of them was the fact that they belonged to two different countries that were in a rivalry. Looking at it from the point of a normal person, it would be difficult to explain and incapable of being resolved.
However, as long as the both of them truly loved each other, all of the problems wouldn’t be a big issue; in fact, there was a high possibility of turning those problems around!
It was obvious that Yun Yang was deeply in love with Gugu, yet he had, for his country and nationality, opted to do what had to be done, hence the regret. This was a display of a man who knew his responsibilities.
It was an utterly precious and invaluable trait indeed!
”Young Master Yun is terribly wise. Unfortunately, your responsibility has caused Gugu to suffer tremendously,” remarked Wei Xinglu with a laugh.
Since it had been confirmed by his own heart, he naturally had to defend his own junior sister with a few words.
As for Wei Xinglu, the other matters, well, did not matter at all. To an elite sect that had transcended the secular, and to these top masters who had been placed above the ordinary people, the country’s war and the treacherous tricks were all worthless even to mention!
As for the misunderstanding that had been created by Yun Yang, the most serious one would be that between him and Gugu, as a couple. That would be considered urgent and had to be solved immediately. If not, once it had formed a knot in their hearts, it would have an impact for a lifetime.
For now, the task was to help both of them to alleviate the tension. The act of his junior sister’s was indeed improper, as all the people had been clear of what was happening. Even then, she still acted so aggressively. If it was not for the fact that Yun Yang had been so in love with his junior sister that he did not mind the slight,such menacing and unruly behavior would be sufficient to break the fate between them!
Yun Yang smiled coldly and said, ”For this part, I really couldn’t help it. I only hoped to attain the goals then, and never did I think about anything else. Since the Nine Supremes were no longer in existence, millions and millions of Yutang’s citizens would have to bear the pain of war fire which was getting worse, day by day. If the four empires had indeed attacked together, Yutang’s common people will then fall into terrible hardship. Even if Gugu could not understand this, and even if she was hateful towards me...I would still do what I did...”
There was boundless of determination within his faint smile.
Wei Xinglu nodded inwardly.
What a great fellow!
Such a responsible man!
A great man had things that could be done and some that he could never, he would also have things that he should do, and must do!
Although he deeply loved his woman, he knew clearly what his priorities were.
No matter how he would dote upon his woman, he would never be a pure slave of his wife in the future.
Such a patriotic and honest man who could clearly distinguish between favor and grudge was very rare.
Gugu should have treasured him more. To act with such menace, and to talk maliciously, would only push such a good man away.
”Argh, it is so frustrating!” Gugu could no longer withstand the irritation; she stood up and shouted across the sky. It was indeed difficult to let out the gloom that lay within her!
Gugu knew that her eldest senior brother had always been wise, and he treated her as if she was his little daughter, full of tenderness and love. Due to this, she could not figure out what had happened to him today. Why did he trust Yun Yang so much, a man whom he had newly met?
He had not even allowed her to defend herself!
This was absurd!
Was it possible that he had been poisoned?
She did not know that it was exactly because Wei Xinglu was especially concerned about her that he worried over her marriage, and did not wish for her to miss the opportunity to have a good man as a husband.
In so, he was afraid that she would be too stubborn that she would destroy the prospects of this wonderful marriage.
This was the extreme concern of an elder towards his children who had reached the proper age.
”Gugu!” Wei Xinglu sternly exclaimed, ”Stop playing the fool.”
Gugu was angered to the extent that she could not talk, she turned her head to the side and saw that Yun Yang was looking at her. Undetected by Wei Xinglu, Yun Yang winked and made a funny face at her.
Gugu’s rage had risen to another tier; golden stars had emerged in front of her eyes and she was growing increasingly dizzy.
”I'm about to die...” groaned Gugu. She slumped her delicate body on the chair. Her whole body was powerless.
On the other side, Yun Yang and Wei Xinglu had begun to chat about anything under the sun. From the art of tea to slowly delving into the art of chess and of the sword. Both of them even talked about fishing techniques for half a day. After that, their discussion covered a myriad of random topics, the chatter going into full swing.
Wei Xinglu was growing increasingly surprised at how learned this young master was.
He was familiar with a wide range of fields, and was even quite well-versed in them!
As long as he started the topic, Yun Yang would be able to delve into it deeply and discourse intelligently. His views were original and extremely distilled.
