Chapter 184 Second Update
"Don’t come any closer. If you don’t want him to die, just stop where you are." Xing Yu tightly clutched Gu Dao, who was dizzy from the assault but ultimately did not faint.
"Let him go." Zong Yunqian’s expression turned cold, but he did not move, instead he simply watched the woman before him.
"Princely Heir, you should leave quickly, don’t worry about me." Once Gu Dao came to, he urgently shouted when he saw his own Princely Heir standing before him.
Zheng Nianru heard this, glanced at Gu Dao, and then looked toward the man before her.
Zong Yunqian looked at Zheng Nianru. The familiarity in his eyes had come back, realizing that he had seen this lady from a prominent family earlier on the painted boat.
Zheng Nianru slowly recalled, considering the identity of the man before her.
The ones who could be called Princely Heirs were only those from a few aristocratic families that had been granted a dukedom. Other lords did not qualify. So, which aristocratic family was this man from?
"Miss, there might be some misunderstandings between us. We had no intention of harming anyone; there’s no need for such undue fear," Zong Yunqian reasoned, noticing their tension and recalling the assassination attempt on them.
However, Zheng Nianru kept silent, looking at Zong Yunqian, whose tall stature and appearance were rare... She had to admit, this Princely Heir had exceptionally good features, simply perfect, their combination was something people would envy as a sign of heavenly favor.
So, why had she not seen such a memorable aristocratic family in her previous life?
Zheng Nianru remembered that, in her past life, she had not met Princely Heirs from either the Zhang Family of Hejian or the Zong Sheng Aristocratic Family. No matter which it was, Zheng Nianru suddenly had another idea.
