125 An Auction That Shocked Four Countries 10

Zuo Shangchen’s face lacked his usual teasing expression as his eyes swept away from the girl behind him as he said indifferently, "Susu, you cannot be compared to her. In fact, you had better not offend her or else I wouldn’t be able to protect you."

Susu’s looked startled. She gazed in disbelief at Zuo Shangchen as her eyes filled with pain.

"Brother Chen, you have always been very protective of me since we were young. However, now you have given me a warning because of another woman? If I’ve done anything wrong, can you let me know? I can change."

"No, you are not in the wrong," Zuo Shangchen shook his head. He put away his feathered fan and said, "In my heart, I only see you forever as my younger sister. Yet even if you were my sister, I hope that you will not become too close to me. Now, I’m only being concerned for your safety by telling you to not cause trouble with her. Otherwise, you will have to suffer the consequences."

A younger sister?

No!

She did not want to be his sister, she wanted to be his wife! Had Brother Chen not understood her sincerity even after so many years? Why was it that he could joke together with others yet be so cruel to her?

Susu swallowed the bitterness in her mouth. She looked up at him with her eyes that were blurred by tears. That doll-like face of hers broke into a smile as she said, "Brother Chen, Susu understands. I only want to follow Brother Chen, that is all. I don’t have any other intentions."

Zuo Shangchen looked at Susu’s stubborn face without saying much. However, he did not walk towards his private room and walked towards Gu Ruoyun instead…

"Xiao Yun’er, I want to come and crowd in here for a while, I wonder if you would let me."

When she heard this devilish voice, Gu Ruoyun paused and looked up before her sight fell upon the man’s smile on his annoyingly attractive face.

"Fourth Prince, why did you not let your female servants carry you today?" Gu Ruoyun’s brows were raised. It was general knowledge that every time Zuo Shangchen appeared, he would be seated in his sedan chair and be carried around by exquisite-looking female servants. So, this was the first time she had seen him walking towards her.

"I had thought you were handicapped and couldn’t walk."

Zuo Shangchen shrugged indifferently, he had long known that Gu Ruoyun’s mouth was not hesitant to utter sharp words when it came to scolding people. However, this did not mean that Susu could tolerate someone insulting the person that she had respected and admired the most.

"Who are you? Who are you to humiliate Brother Chen? Even if Brother Chen were to let other people carry him, it has nothing to do with you!"

Susu’s face was red with anger as she glared furiously at Gu Ruoyun. However, her gaze did not cause any harm and it only made her resemble a little child who was throwing tantrum.

"Humiliate him?" Gu Ruoyun smiled as her gaze skimmed over the man’s face, "Zuo Shangchen, am I humiliating you?"

Zuo Shangchen coughed and his eyes were smiling, "Xiao Yun’er is only telling it as it is. She is not humiliating me. Even if she was, I would be willing to let Xiao Yun’er humiliate me further."

When he said this, Zuo Shangchen winked at Gu Ruoyun. His expression looked completely like he was begging to be trampled on.

"Brother Chen!" Susu stomped her foot and stared unhappily at Gu Ruoyun. She did not understand what was it that was so good about this rude woman that she could actually cause Brother Chen, who had grown up with her, to give up on himself!

In fact, her ability was so weak…

A fifteen-year-old low-level Martial Warrior would probably do fine in Azure Dragon Country. However, if one wanted to stand by Brother Chen’s side with such a low-level ability, that would practically be the wildest fantasy one could ever have...
