The next day, early in the morning, Gu Yanran stretched lazily and slowly got out of bed. Her eyes had noticeable dark circles, making her look somewhat downcast.
It was clear that Gu Yanran hadn't rested well the previous night.
The reason was simple. Last night, after hearing Li Yun suggest she try on the new clothes he had prepared for her, Gu Yanran, upon returning to her room, impulsively began trying on one of the garments. When she looked at herself in the mirror, she saw a version of herself that was very seductive and exposed. This made her feel completely nervous.
She didn't even know that her body could be so... attractive, so sensual.
She even had a thought: if she wore that outfit and went out, would she be able to captivate Li Yun?
After having that thought, Gu Yanran felt so embarrassed that she could hardly believe it. How could she have such thoughts?
She had made all this sacrifice, coming here to be Li Yun's servant just to save the Gu family. It wasn't truly her intention to be a servant, much less dress in such revealing clothes to "seduce" Li Yun. Wouldn't that be a total lack of shame?
Throughout the night, her pride and shame fought endlessly, keeping her awake.
She didn't even know when she fell asleep. When she opened her eyes, it was already daytime.
Suddenly, she heard a "click" when the door to her room was abruptly opened, and Li Yun appeared in her line of sight.
"What are you doing, servant? How come you're getting up later than the master of the house? Shouldn't I be the one serving you?"
Li Yun entered the room and started scolding her.
"Ah…!"
Seeing Li Yun staring at her, Gu Yanran, frightened, quickly ran to the door and slammed it shut.
"What am I going to do? What should I do?"
"With this situation, Li Yun must have already seen me. Will he think I'm a hypocrite? Or that I'm someone without shame?"
Gu Yanran leaned against the door, breathing heavily, her mind full of anxiety.
With the clothes she was wearing, how didn't she realize that Li Yun had already seen her? It was so embarrassing.
That red lace set was even more provocative than that of a prostitute.
If it were any other time, she would never have worn such revealing and sensual clothing. Much less would she have allowed Li Yun to see her like that.
"This must have been a plan by Li Yun! He surely did it on purpose to make me wear this!"
Gu Yanran tried to convince herself in her mind, blaming Li Yun for everything, feeling completely innocent.
However, now she had to face an even more difficult question: how would she face Li Yun after this? How could she look him in the eye after everything that had happened?
Meanwhile, Li Yun, outside the room, stood by the door, watching in astonishment, motionless.
It wasn't that he hadn't seen enough; in fact, he wanted to keep watching that shocking scene.
What really surprised him was that, beneath her cold exterior, this "ice queen" had such a passionate side, and what's more, she had shown it by putting on such daring, revealing clothing.
Li Yun remembered that in the outfit he had prepared for her, there was only one piece that was so fiery and revealing.
Could this "ice queen" have such a hidden side that he had just discovered?
"Interesting, really interesting."
"It seems I've found a new path. The task of undoing the ice queen is progressing very well."
Li Yun thought to himself that he must continue and not get discouraged. Soon, he would conquer this woman!
Just imagining Gu Yanran, wearing that red lace set, kneeling before him, giving herself to him, sent an indescribable thrill through him.
Although Li Yun wasn't a man obsessed with physical pleasures, after all, he was a man, and like all men, he had his desires and needs.
It didn't take long before Gu Yanran changed clothes and appeared before him.
Of course, it wasn't the business suit she used to wear. Since she arrived at that place, the business suit had been left behind forever, and now she could only wear the servant's uniform.
Sure, if Gu Yanran decided to wear that red lace set, Li Yun might also accept it.
"Why so slow? If I have to wait for you to get up to make breakfast, am I going to starve to death?"
"Hurry up, hurry up and eat. Then, I have important things to do."
Gu Yanran, with her head down, didn't dare to say anything while listening to Li Yun's complaints. She grabbed the breakfast and milk on the table and started eating quickly. In no time, she was finished.
Right now, the only thing Gu Yanran wanted was to escape from there.
"Stop! I'm not done eating yet. Where do you think you're going?" Li Yun frowned and looked at Gu Yanran, who was ready to flee. This servant was starting to lose respect for him.
"I... I..."
"I... what? Sit here. Then we'll go out."
"Isn't it Sunday? Aren't you going to the company today? I... this..."
Gu Yanran looked confused at Li Yun. Finally, it was Sunday, wouldn't Li Yun give her a day off?
"The son of Chen Tianfang, Chen Feilong, was murdered by that guy, Mo Bufan, last night. As an old friend of Chen Tianfang, shouldn't I go offer my condolences?"
Upon hearing Li Yun's words, Gu Yanran couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Was that a condolence? What he really wanted was something far more sinister. She had been with Li Yun the night before and had seen how he orchestrated everything, how Li Yun had been the one who killed Chen Feilong. Now, with a calm face, he was saying he was going to offer condolences.
"What's with that look? Don't you have anything to say?"
Li Yun, seeing the disdainful look from Gu Yanran, became enraged.
Damn it!
A servant, looking at her master with disdain? Was she challenging his authority?
This was a matter that had to be corrected. He would have to keep disciplining her, step by step.
"It's not... I..."
Gu Yanran tried to explain, but Li Yun interrupted her firmly: "Are you questioning your master?"
"No, I'm not!"
"Everything you say is correct!"
Gu Yanran didn't dare to anger him any further and reluctantly accepted his words, while inwardly cursing him over and over again.
"That's better. Let's go."
Seeing her give in, Li Yun didn't give it much more thought.
Discipline had to be gradual; forcing it too quickly could have the opposite effect.
The Chen family.
As one of the four great families of Jinling, the Chen family always had many visitors and was constantly receiving guests.
However, that day, despite the crowd, white cloths were hung at the Chen family's door. Those arriving at the place couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow, as if they feared offending a furious lion.
The reason was simple: the eldest son of Chen Tianfang, Chen Feilong, had been murdered the night before.
Losing a son at such a mature age, and in such a violent manner, made Chen Tianfang's anger very clear.
At that moment, anyone who dared challenge Chen Tianfang wouldn't know what they were doing.
