“Whether or not I have broken off the engagement, what does that have anything to do with you?” Gu Yiyi snorted.
Previously, An Cui was the one who had encouraged Gu Yiyi to look for Nan Xian in Liu Yun Kingdom. Not only did An Cui push her, but she had also even made Feng Ruqing a scapegoat. However, Gu Yiyi could never meet Feng Ruqing if An Cui had never done that to her.
Hearing this, An Cui’s face changed slightly but she quickly regained her composure.
“Sister, Nan Xian was previously your betrothed. Naturally, I could never fight with you. Now that you have called off the marriage, I want to be Nan Xian’s concubine. Could you help me to get your father to tell Young Master Mu Ling?” An Cui reached out to grab Gu Yiyi’s arm gently.
As Nan Xian was Gu Yiyi’s betrothed previously, An Cui dared not make such a request. Since Nan Xian had nothing to do with Gu Yiyi now, she must seize the opportunity.
“Sister, I am your cousin. As the saying goes, one should always keep the benefits within the family. You will never let me down, will you?” An Cui’s eyes were flooded with tears.
Gu Yiyi shook off An Cui’s hand, violently. She had never felt that tears could be this disgusting before this.
Gu Yiyi’s reaction caught An Cui completely off-guard. Startled, An Cui took a few steps backward. Her eyes were still fixed on Gu Yiyi.
“Why do you think that Nan Xian would make you his concubine if my father talks to Young Master Mu Ling about it?” Gu Yiyi’s face darkened. She looked down at An Cui disdainfully.
An Cui pursed her lips tightly.
Previously when An Cui was still in the chief manor, the Mu family did not hesitate to make her Nan Xian’s concubine. She did not even need Gu Yiyi’s help.
Now everyone knew An Cui had been thrown out of the chief manor. The people of the Mu family were very snobbish. Naturally, they would never accept An Cui to be Nan Xian’s concubine.
“Sister, please help me. You are the only one who can help me. Otherwise, my mother and I will not be able to survive,” An Cui cried, pitifully.
“Oh, if you cannot survive, you could just end your life. If you can’t do it yourself, I could help you.” Gu Yiyi stared coldly at An Cui.
An Cui’s eyes widened in shock. She could not believe the things that she had just heard. An Cui was Gu Yiyi’s kin after all. How could Gu Yiyi say that to her?
The Gu family’s guard stared sternly at An Cui. They had unsheathed the swords and taken a few steps forward.
“Gu Yiyi, you are so ruthless!” Seeing this, An Cui took a few steps backward, subconsciously. Her face was ghastly pale.
“You said you will not be able to survive. I am helping you because you are my cousin. Do you know why I have broken off the marriage with Nan Xian? ” Gu Yi smiled as he walked up to An Cui.
“Wh…Why?”
“Because he has taken away the lady whom I love the most.”
An Cui turned her head stiffly and stared blankly at Gu Yiyi’s stunning faces.
“So… Why do you think that I would help you?” Gu Yiyi’s eyes curved into two crescent moons.
Although Gu Yiyi had called off the marriage as she felt that the Mu family had deceived her, she would never tell An Cui about this. She wanted An Cui to know that she would never help others to do something that might upset Feng Ruqing.
“Gu Yiyi! I am your cousin and we share the same blood.” An Cui’s face contorted with rage. She had stopped pretending to be pitiful.
“Drain all her blood from her body!” Gu Yiyi pouted.
Hearing this, An Cui was rendered speechless.
“You said that we share the same blood, didn’t you? When all your blood is drained from your body, I will inject the blood of a different family’s into your body. Hence, you will not be related to me in any way anymore.”
