Chapter 17 Dare to Complain Again!

ed his aloof appearance that kept everyone at bay.Gu Yunxi quickly scrambled to her feet and returned to her corner, busily smoothing down her clothes and unruly strands of hair.Her face was etched wi...After Gu Yunxi had paid her respects to the Empress Dowager, she immediately looked at the man in white: "Chu Li!"

However, as she turned around, Gu Yunxi got a clear look at the man's face.

He was dressed in white, which was Jun Chuli's favorite color.

But there was no characteristic beauty mole in the corner of his eye!

He is the eldest brother of the Four Emperors, Jun Ye Xuan!

In an instant, Gu Yunxi's whole body stiffened.

"It seems even the new bride of Fifth Prince would mistake this King and Fifth Prince so easily."

Jun Ye Xuan looked at her, his eyes were extremely indifferent.

The Empress knew her grandson's temperament and was afraid that Gu Yunxi would upset him.

She laughed and smoothed things over: "Xuán'er never wore white before. Don't even mention that Xié'r wouldn't notice, I didn't recognize her at first glance either!"

Come, Xi'er, come here quickly and sit beside me.

The Empress Dowager took Gu Yunxi's hand and immediately frowned. "How come your hands are so cold Was it the wind by the pool that chilled you"

"I'm fine, Grandma, don't worry."

Gu Yunxi sat down beside her, trying to keep as far away from Jun Ye Xuan as possible.

He did not paint a beauty mole, he is today, appearing here as the 玄王爺 (Mysterious King).

But yesterday night he came to live with me as "Chu Li".

What on earth does this guy mean now

The Empress Dowager was still not at ease: “Go quickly and send a coat to the Princess.”

"Why go through so much trouble Just wear what my king provides."

Jun Ye Xuan took off his robe and gave it to the palace maid.

The palace maid, blushing, took it with both hands and couldn't help but steal a glance at him.

I've never seen Lord Xuan in white before. I didn't expect that Lord Xuan in white would be so elegant, almost like a god.

The maidservant brought the outer robe to Gu Yunxi's presence.

Gu Yunyao, however, radiated a palpable sense of resistance: "I'm really fine, I don't need..."

“Are you criticizing my attire, or are you criticizing me as a person” Jun Ye Xuan’s voice came over, neither cold nor warm.

Gu Yunxi's heart turned cold, she forgot to refuse, and the robe was draped over her.

Still bearing his warmth! It's unnerving.

The Empress Dowager immediately smiled and said, "You are Li'er's elder brother, and you have a deep relationship with Li'er since childhood. How could Xi'er dislike you"

"You see, with just one sentence you made our little Xi'er so uncomfortable!"

The Empress Mother took Gu Yunxi's hand and said with a smile, "He's like that, stubborn and prickly. Don't mind him."

"But you see, he's always cold and distant towards any other woman. Only with you does he even bother to put on your clothes. It shows just how different you are from all the other women in his eyes."

The Empress Dowager's few words of comfort, however, left Gu Yunxi feeling a chill run down her spine.

She couldn't help but raise her head and glance at Jun Ye Xuan.

The scene from last night flashed back into my mind.

As soon as Gu Yunxi thought about having been under him, kissing him passionately until the heavens and earth were dark, her heart ached.

Instinctively, I tugged at my clothes, wanting to take them off, but hesitated.

But that look of disdain only made Jun Ye Xuan's face turn extremely cold.

"Dare to scorn me again! This King will make you taste the bitterness of regret!" he coldly snorted.

Gu Yuxi's hand holding the chopsticks trembled, and with a clang, the chopsticks hit the bowl.

"I have not..."

"You little punk, what do you mean by that"

The Empress Dowager glared at Jun Ye Xuan, furious!

"Dare to bully our little Xi'er again, and I'll make you taste the bitterness of regret!"

Come on, you're shaking like a leaf just because you didn't see Xiaoxier

I don't know if my temper scares people easily.

"Grandmother..." Gu Yunxi just wanted to end the confrontation quickly, but she didn't want any more trouble.

The Empress Dowager felt sorry for her and comforted, "Little Xi'er, don't mind him, he was born with this ugly face. Just pretend you don't see it."

"It's alright, it's alright. Eat quickly. After we finish eating, we still need to go to the Taihe Palace for a blessing."

Gu Yunxi nodded, lowered her head to eat, and said nothing more.

It's getting late.

After breakfast, the Empress Dowager and her maids left first for the Taihe Hall to prepare with the State Teacher.

Gu Yunshi rode in Jun Ye Xuan's carriage again.

Looking at his white robes again, she couldn't help but ask: "Fourth Brother, what...what do you mean by this"

Jun Ye Xuan said nothing, he just kept staring at her.

That look, at first glance it seems cold, but upon closer inspection, it's actually scorching.

Here's the translation:

It's that unfathomable look again!

Gu Yunxi was startled and terrified when she saw this.

His hand instinctively grasped the curtain.

Are you still coming down, or is it too late

Who knew that the moment this thought just flashed in my mind, I heard Jun Yexuan's voice with a dangerous aura, cold and harsh:

"If you want to be stripped naked and thrown out, just lift the cover and try it!".Even, she held him tighter.Those whimpering sounds, soft and broken, ground away the last vestiges of Jun Ye Xuan's rationality.He suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of fury in them!"You brought this...
