Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Outside the entrance of the Jun Residence, a line of carriages stretched out, each carriage carrying numerous betrothal gifts, extending beyond sight.
The nearby commoners were stunned by this display, gathering to watch. Even pedestrians passing by joined in, standing outside the Jun Residenceâs gates, chatting excitedly.
A man wearing a purple-gold beaded crown, his long robe embellished with green patterns and shades of purple, a jade belt cinched around his waist, stood proudly at the entrance. His handsome face exuded a sense of confidence and arrogance.
This man was none other than the Fifth Prince of the Chengyuan Kingdom, Qitian Yu!
âDidnât the Gu familyâs young lady give birth to a son before marriage? Why would the Fifth Prince be interested in her?â
âDonât you know? The Fifth Prince and Miss Gu were childhood friends and had a pre-existing engagement. However, due to a scandal involving the Gu family, they expelled Miss Gu to avoid trouble, and the engagement was canceled. Yet, the Fifth Prince never forgot about her. Now that Miss Gu has returned, heâs here to propose!â
âWow! I didnât expect the Fifth Prince to be so devoted. Miss Gu is really lucky. If I could meet a man like the Fifth Prince, Iâd have no regrets in life.â
âYou can only dream! Look at yourselfâyour status and appearance. Do you think someone like the Fifth Prince would be interested in you?â
âGet lost! Canât I fantasize a little?â
Having rebuked the individual, they couldnât resist letting out a sigh. âMiss Gu had a tarnished reputation before, and now sheâs a mother. Nevertheless, the Fifth Prince harbors no resentment, presenting numerous gifts for the proposal himself. Her fortune is truly remarkable!â
âThatâs true. The Fifth Prince is of noble status, handsome in appearance, and extraordinarily talented. He even won the selection competition recently, becoming a student of the Qiankun Academy. His future is limitless. Miss Gu must have done countless good deeds in her previous life to have such fortune!â
âMiss Gu is exceptional too. Itâs said that the head of the Gu family is a Saint, but even he canât surpass Miss Gu. Itâs clear that sheâs also a Saint. Such a young Saintâhave you ever heard of such a thing? Moreover, her son, at such a young age, has already demonstrated remarkable strength, ranking in the top three of the competition. I believe his future achievements will surpass even the Fifth Prince.â
However, someone quickly refuted what this person said.
âSo what? A woman will eventually get married. Despite Miss Guâs strength and youth, isnât it better for her to marry a good man than to live alone?â
The person praising Gu Qingluan felt that there was a problem with this statement but didnât know how to counter it at the moment.
Just then, someone shouted, âMiss Gu is coming out!â
The Fifth Prince, standing at the entrance, eyes brightened. âQingluan, youâre here.â
His gaze was affectionate, and his voice gentle.
The surrounding crowd of onlookers secretly marveled.
Indeed, the Fifth Prince held deep feelings for Miss Gu.
Gu Qingluan wore a long skirt made of moon-white silk, adorned with golden thread embroidery. The hem of the skirt fluttered as she elegantly approached.
A delicate silver hairpin adorned her asymmetrical cloud bun, swaying gracefully with her every step.
At first sight, she appeared like a celestial being gracing the mortal realm, emanating an ethereal and refined charm that left onlookers entranced and speechless.
Miss Guâs beauty had already become widely known since the selection competition.
Seeing her now, they couldnât help but exclaim in astonishment: Miss Gu was truly captivating and alluring!
No wonder the Fifth Prince was interested in her, to the extent that he was willing to overlook the scandal of her lost virtue and propose marriage.
Upon seeing Gu Qingluanâs attire, Qitian Yu was also amazed.
She seemed even more beautiful than the last time he saw her at the martial arts arena.
Gu Qingluan cast a glance at the endless row of betrothal gifts and the countless people outside the gate. Her beautiful eyes then returned to Qitian Yu, who was approaching. âStop right there!â
Qitian Yuâs steps halted, and a self-assured smile appeared on his handsome face. âQingluan, marry this prince! Iâve already informed my father; I want to marry you as the main consort..â
