Gu Yanran could feel the chilliness in the room. She couldn't help but shudder and subconsciously wanted to leave.
"Fifth Miss …"
Fu Qinglun turned his head and raised his voice slightly.
"Secretary Fu, I remember that I still have something to do …" "How about I come back later …"
"Fifth Miss, none of this is as important as the king's. "Please."
A faint smile surfaced on Fu Qinglun's handsome face. He replied with a tone that was neither light nor heavy.
"I …"
Gu Yanran clasped her hands together, still not daring to enter.
"Eldest Young Master will be arriving soon …"
Before Fu Qinglun finished his sentence, he saw Bo Yuheng, who had changed into a new set of clothes, walking towards him.
"My lord, it's Fifth Miss …"
"Your Majesty …"
This time, it was impossible for Gu Yanran to leave even if she wanted to. She could only speak timidly.
"Yanran, come in."
Bo Yuheng's unfathomable gaze drifted over. Gu Yanran felt very uncomfortable all over and her heart clenched.
"Fifth Miss, please."
Fu Qinglun raised his hand and said respectfully.
His attitude made Gu Yanran even more uneasy as she thought to herself.
"Why isn't Big Brother here yet?"
Under the pressure of Bo Yuheng's gaze, Gu Yanran stepped forward helplessly, her legs becoming as heavy as lead.
Ever since she was young, she had met many people with esteemed standing and attended quite a few occasions. In his heart, however, he had never felt this weak.
This was because the person she was facing was a man above his peers. Not only that, she had long since heard of his ruthless methods.
"My lord, I wonder what orders you have for me?"
Gu Yanran walked in, some distance away from Bo Yuheng. Clenching his hands tightly and pursing his lower lip, he asked timidly.
"Yanran, don't be so distant. Your father and I have been friends for many years. You can just call me Second Uncle …"
Bo Yuheng sat down in front of the round table in the room and crossed his legs. As he spoke, although he had a thin smile on his face, the sharpness of his aura didn't diminish in the slightest.
Even though he was sitting, he was still an aloof and lofty king.
"Your Majesty, this isn't too good right …"
Gu Yanran felt her scalp go numb, and her face tensed up as she said uneasily.
"If I say so …"
Bo Yuheng paused for a second and squinted his eyes, a strange smile appearing in the depths of his eyes.
"Yanran, come. Sit down first."
This attitude made Gu Yanran even more uncomfortable. Her back was tensed and she was so nervous that it was hard for her to breathe.
"I'll just stand there."
Gu Yanran's back started to sweat, and her heart was pounding.
"Brother, what are you doing? "Why aren't you here yet?"
"Fifth Miss, is the king calling you over?"
Seeing that Gu Yanran did not move, Fu Qinglun went up and reminded her in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, if you have anything to say, just say it, right?"
Gu Yanran loosened her clenched hands into fists. His fingernail slowly pierced the palm of his hand.
The pain didn't lessen the tension in her heart.
"I called you here to have a meal with me."
Bo Yuheng curled his lips as his cold gaze fell on Gu Yanran.
It had to be said that Gu Yanran was one of the Gu family's three sisters. Even without makeup, he would still be able to instantly kill a lot of people.
Her brows weren't as cold as Lin Ange's, nor were they as heroic as Bo Wanzhou's. She was beautiful but not enchanting, just like a hibiscus.
"I... "This …"
Gu Yanran was frightened out of her wits when she heard this.
She was very uncomfortable standing here, she was so nervous that she almost couldn't breathe. Not to mention eating with Bo Yuheng.
At that moment, Gu Yanran only felt a sharp knife on her neck.
She did not dare to retreat, nor did she dare to move forward.
"What is it? "You don't want to?"
Bo Yuheng raised his eyebrows at her and smiled coldly.
"I... "Not worthy …"
Gu Yanran's fingernails became even deeper. This voice was very soft, and contained a trace of fear.
"Your Majesty …"
Just when Gu Yanran was at a loss, Gu Anhe finally arrived. Behind him were a few attendants from the Lingyun Stage.
"Phew …"
Gu Yanran's clenched fists loosened slightly.
"Hurry up and serve the dishes."
Gu Anhe instructed the servant before striding in. When he passed by Gu Yanran, he glanced at her.
"Gu Anhe, why is your sister unwilling to be served? I really can't do anything about her …"
Bo Yuheng's indifferent tone actually had a hint of ridicule in it.
Gu Yanran was getting more and more confused. Why did he call her here?
Could it be that he really wanted her to accompany him for a meal?
Although she was a star, she had never attended a dinner she did not want to attend in so many years. Not to mention accompanying a customer for a meal.
She was Fifth Miss from Li City Gu family, Gu Anhe's sister. No one dared to disrespect her with this identity.
"Ol 'Five, what happened to you? "Hurry over here."
Gu Anhe's dark blue eyes narrowed as he looked towards Gu Yanran.
"Big brother, I'm feeling a bit uncomfortable. I want to …"
"Where did all these excuses come from, come over quickly."
Gu Anhe emphasized his tone as he reprimanded her.
"I …"
"Your Majesty, the sixth young master is here …"
At this moment, Bo Yuheng's bodyguard walked over emotionlessly and reported to Bo Yuheng.
"Ol'sixth is here. That's great."
Gu Yanran's eyes instantly lit up when she heard this as she thought to herself.
"What's going on?"
Bo Yuheng raised his gaze and looked coldly at Gu Anhe.
"I'll go take a look."
The expression in Gu Anhe's eyes changed, anger was lurking in his eyes. This Gu Yunxiao has been really cocky recently.
"No need, let him in."
Unexpectedly, Bo Yuheng actually 'stopped' him.
"Yes."
"En!" Wuqing responded and walked out.
Gu Yanran relaxed a little and slightly moved her sore fingers.
Soon, Gu Yunxiao walked in.
"Your Majesty …"
"Gu Yunxiao, what are you doing here?"
Gu Anhe didn't wait for Bo Yuheng to speak as he said viciously.
"Oh, my father has already expressed his gratitude to the king by asking me to come and toast a glass of wine to him."
Gu Yunxiao was neither humble nor arrogant, so his words were extremely natural.1
"No need, get out."
Gu Anhe reprimanded him with a frightful dark look.
"There's no need, the king has the final say …"
Gu Yunxiao's lips curled up, and a faint smile appeared on his handsome face.
There was alienation in politeness.
"Since you've come, then let's go together."
Bo Yuheng remained silent. There was no change in his eyes. However, no one could clearly see or guess what was hidden beneath those deep pupils.
"Fifth Miss, please."
Fu Qinglun said to Gu Yanran again.
Seeing that Gu Yunxiao and Gu Anhe were both here, Gu Yanran was no longer as nervous as she was now.
Unexpectedly, Fu Qinglun actually led her to the left side of Bo Yuheng.
Gu Yunxiao was about to sit down, but seeing this arrangement, he opened his mouth and smiled.
"Fifth Sister, you don't drink again. Why don't I switch with you …"
"No need."
Gu Yanran was about to say "okay", but who knew that Bo Yuheng actually opened his mouth in a cold manner.
