Chapter 34: No Matter What I Do, It’s Still Better Than You Cheating While Married!
"
Yun Yun's sudden change in attitude left Gu Fei momentarily stunned.
Especially since she was now holding his arm, her body pressing tightly against his. His arm occasionally brushed against a soft area of her body.
This made Gu Fei's usually cold expression crack ever so slightly.
Moreover, this subtle and ambiguous physical contact was so delicate that it caused Gu Fei's heart to race. For a brief moment, his mind went blank, and he felt his heartbeat become erratic.
But he quickly figured it out.
Yun Yun was acting this way because she was angry at Xun Er's earlier words. Her current behavior was meant to provoke Xun Er deliberately.
"You... How could you two...!"
Xun Er was stunned at seeing the intimate interaction between Gu Fei and Yun Yun.
Xun Er is feeling jealous. Emotion level: +100
She stomped her foot, her jealousy intensifying, and she became visibly furious.
"Gu Fei, I never thought you'd be this kind of person..."
"We've only just separated, and you already have a new lover!"
"What do you take me for?!"
Xun Er is feeling angry. Emotion level: +100
"Jealousy, anger?"
The system faithfully informed Gu Fei of Xun Er's emotional changes.
Hearing her inexplicable jealousy, followed by anger and jealousy again, Gu Fei felt even more disgusted.
Xun Er had always been one to put on an act. Right now, she was just being possessive.
It wasn't that she really cared about him.
She simply didn't want to see a man who once loved her so deeply quickly have another woman by his side. And that woman was even comparable to her in terms of beauty.
Gu Fei knew that even though Xun Er seemed really angry right now, acting like she truly cared about him, the moment her beloved Xiao Yan appeared...
Xun Er would completely forget everything she just said. She would immediately throw herself into Xiao Yan's arms, not even giving these matters a second thought.
Xiao Yan was always first in Xun Er's heart, and Gu Fei no longer cared to compete.
"No matter what, I'm better than you cheating during our marriage!"
Gu Fei looked at Xun Er with a slight sneer and spoke in a low voice.
His words were still filled with disdain and loathing, unchanged by Xun Er's display of emotions.
Gu Fei was fed up with Xun Er's constant disturbances and tantrums. Without the filter of love, he saw Xun Er as nothing more than a spoiled girl.
Even if he truly had something going on with Yun Yun, they were already divorced. He was free to love whoever he wanted- what did it have to do with Xun Er?
Why pretend to catch him in the act and question him with the tone of a wife, acting all heartbroken?
"Sorry, I didn't mean to earlier..."
Hearing the exchange between Xun Er and Gu Fei, Yun Yun finally understood their relationship and apologized to Gu Fei.
At that moment, she realized that the relationship between Gu Fei and Xun Er was more complicated than she had thought.
But just now, she had vented her anger thoroughly through Gu Fei.
Seeing Xun Er's jealous and angry expression earlier, Yun Yun felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction and couldn't help but curl her lips in triumph.
Now that her anger had subsided, she let go of Gu Fei's arm.
She then realized just how bold her previous actions had been.
It seemed that Gu Fei's arm had come into contact with a sensitive area of her body.
Yun Yun is feeling shy. Emotion level: +100
Thinking about this, Yun Yun's face turned even redder than when she left the cave, with a faint blush spreading to her neck.
Even she didn't fully understand her earlier actions- it wasn't just to anger Xun Er.
A large part of it was because she had developed some strange feelings for Gu Fei.
Yun Yun wasn't that kind of woman. She was usually aloof and noble, never letting such things upset her.
If it had been any other man, she wouldn't have gotten angry, even if Xun Er had said such things to her. She wouldn't have grabbed another man's arm or dared to speak such flirtatious
words.
And as for their intimate, ambiguous contact-had Yun Yun really been unaware of it, or had she secretly allowed it to happen?
On the other side, Xun Er had already fallen silent, stung by Gu Fei's sharp words.
She was the most sensitive and couldn't handle the loathing and disdain she saw in Gu Fei's
eyes.
Before, she was always the one to look down on Gu Fei. When had his gaze towards her become filled only with negative emotions?
She sighed, finding herself somewhat nostalgic for the past.
But quickly, Xun Er realized what she was thinking, her expression changing. She bit her lip and glared at Gu Fei with dissatisfaction.
"Miss, Young Master Gu Fei was probably just helping that young lady break the seal!"
Ling Ying, observing from the sidelines, had a clearer understanding of the situation.
He noticed some changes in Yun Yun's aura and explained to Xun Er.
"So that's it- they weren't doing anything improper in there..."
Upon hearing this, Xun Er realized the truth.
She couldn't help but feel guilty for the harsh words she had hastily spoken earlier.
After all, Yun Yun's looks and demeanor had indeed made Xun Er feel somewhat threatened.
"I'm sorry, Gu Fei!"
Xun Er planned to apologize.
But Gu Fei couldn't care less about her right now. Instead, he turned to the Lion King and
asked, "Lion King, is there anything else you need to prepare?"
"Master, I'm most worried about my child who hasn't fully grown yet."
"If I leave, I fear that nearby magical beasts might attack my child."
The Lion King expressed his concern.
"You don't need to worry. I'll place a seal in your child's cave to ensure its safety. In a few years, when it has fully absorbed the energy from the accompanying Amethyst Lion Birth
Essence, you'll be reunited."
Gu Fei replied calmly before heading to the Lion King's cave.
Yun Yun didn't want to face Xun Er and Ling Ying alone, so she spread her battle wings and
followed Gu Fei.
After entrusting his child to young master Gu Fei, he began placing seals on the cave.
With his strength, unless an extremely powerful Dou Ancestor or Dou Venerate expert intervened, the seal would remain intact.
Afterward, Gu Fei mounted the Amethyst Winged Lion King.
In the vast North-Western region, having a sixth-rank magical beast as a mount would be
more convenient.
Although it wasn't as fast as flying, it was sufficient.
"Farewell. I will repay this favor if the opportunity arises in the future."
Yun Yun is feeling reluctant. Emotion level: +100
Yun Yun bid farewell to Gu Fei, feeling a sense of reluctance. She didn't even know why she
was feeling this way.
It was her first time developing such strange emotions towards a man.
