Chapter 1127: Chapter 587: His True Feelings (Part 2)

Hearing this, Lan Yao rolled his eyes dramatically.

"Gu Sheng, your words are too harsh, aren’t they? Who says we can’t find wives? We’re just a step behind you!"

"Not just one step, I think it will be many more steps, otherwise why would you be so envious?"

Finally understanding what he meant, Lan Yao sighed helplessly.

"Alright, alright, we’re the ones who spoke too much. I won’t say anything more, okay?"

Seeing that they finally quieted down, Gu Sheng then took Hong Mei’s hand and walked briskly toward his courtyard.

After sitting down, Gu Sheng gently patted Hong Mei’s head.

"Don’t mind them, they just can’t hold their tongues, but they mean no harm."

"I know, they are not just your friends, they are mine too. I know what kind of people they are, it’s just a bit embarrassing to be teased."

"Don’t be embarrassed. The two of us are openly in a relationship, and my marrying you is a certainty, nothing will change that."

Hearing him say this for the first time, Hong Mei’s eyes widened.

"Gu Sheng, does that mean you want to marry me?"

"Yes, it means I wouldn’t marry anyone but you in this lifetime."

As soon as Gu Sheng said this, tears instantly flowed from Hong Mei’s eyes.

"This is the first time you’ve openly talked about this with me..."

Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Gu Sheng pulled her into his arms.

"It’s my fault for not saying things that make you feel secure and often leaving you in doubt. Don’t worry, I won’t let that happen again. I’ll frequently express my love for you."

Hearing the firm and powerful heartbeat against his chest, Hong Mei wept uncontrollably.

She knew Gu Sheng liked her and that they cared for each other, but he never verbally expressed his love, leaving her often wondering.

During her last visit to the Cloud Sea, Wushuang Taoist had mentioned this.

She had wanted to say something to reassure her master but opened her mouth several times and couldn’t find the words.

Because Gu Sheng had never given her any promises or formally acknowledged their relationship, she didn’t feel it was her place to say much.

But today, she finally heard these words from him.

Gu Sheng coaxed her for a while until she smiled again.

Gu Sheng patted her head and said with a smile, "It’s getting late, get some rest early. You sleep here tonight, and I’ll sleep in the side room."

Hearing this, Hong Mei quickly got up.

"No, you should sleep here. This is your place, and you’re surely used to sleeping in this bed. I’ve just arrived and can sleep anywhere."

"No, this is the most comfortable place in the entire Stone Village. I can’t let my woman suffer. You sleep here tonight; we’ll meet tomorrow."

Getting up, Gu Sheng kissed her forehead before turning to leave.

After he left, Hong Mei thought for a while and eventually lay down on his bed.

Breathing in the familiar scent that filled her nose, she finally fell into a deep sleep.

At daybreak, Gu Sheng was the first to rise.

As soon as he stepped out, he spotted the Third Elder from afar.

Meeting his gaze, the Third Elder walked over with a smile.

"Awake? How did you sleep? Are you used to the modifications?"

"Pretty well, thank you for your concern, Third Elder."

"It’s what I’m supposed to do. As long as you don’t mind, it’s fine."

Saying that, the Third Elder placed a small box in his hand.

"Gu Sheng, take good care of this on your journey, and give it to Wushuang Taoist when you return to the Cloud Sea."

Feeling the aura inside, Gu Sheng raised his brows slightly.

"This is herbal medicine."

"Yes, this is an extremely important medicine, ordered to be found for Wushuang Taoist. This herb only grows once in a hundred years, so you must handle it carefully."

"Will this herb cure the poison in Wushuang Taoist?"

"This herb must be used together with those personally cultivated by Wushuang Taoist. It can detoxify, but may not completely rid of it. However, don’t worry, as long as part of it can be detoxified, the rest will be easier to handle, so you must take good care of it."

Hearing the Third Elder’s repeated advice, Gu Sheng nodded.

"Rest assured, Third Elder, this thing is so important, I’ll guard it with my life."

With those words, the Third Elder breathed a sigh of relief.
