Chapter 1564: Playing the Guzheng for Brother Chuan to listen to 1564
Xiao Yuchuan’s eyes didn’t even glance her way, "What is there about you that is worth noticing?"
"..." Gongsun Qianru found herself at a loss for words. She remembered the amazed expressions of everyone upon seeing her, the way those rich young Masters fawned over her to win a smile as soon as she appeared at gatherings of nobles and celebrities, and how her talent outshone all the well-bred young ladies in the capital, earning her the title of the most talented woman in the land.
Was she supposed to say she was stunningly beautiful and exceptionally talented herself?
"Brother Chuan, we will be husband and wife later, and I only wish for you to be safe and healthy, to hold Ru’er in your heart; that alone would satisfy me," she said.
The beautiful woman spoke feebly and plaintively, her words devoid of any extravagant desires. Any ordinary man would be moved to take her into his arms upon hearing such words.
Xiao Yuchuan scornfully curled the corner of his lips, "You really are deluded. I’ll tell you the truth, I cannot possibly marry you."
"You!" Gongsun Qianru stared incredulously, her beautiful eyes wide with shock, "Brother Chuan, you must be joking, our wedding date is already set..."
"That was arranged by the Xiao Chonghuan couple, it has nothing to do with me." Xiao Yuchuan sneered, "I just woke up today, and before this, I had been drugged by the Xiao couple. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll call off the marriage."
"You’re joking with me, right?" Gongsun Qianru’s hands trembled, the bowl of cubilose she was holding fell to the ground with a "clang" noise, as if she couldn’t bear the shock, she clutched her forehead and her delicate body swayed.
"Who’s joking with you?"
"Brother Chuan, you..." Gongsun Qianru covered her face crying, "What on earth did I do wrong? Am I not beautiful enough, or not good enough for you to treat me like this?"
"In my eyes, there’s nothing good about you," he stated bluntly.
