After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 7: How to Attract His Attention?

If it were the old Gan Luo, he would have gladly accepted it and presented the newly acquired treasures to him.

But she is not the Gan Luo of the past anymore, especially after just hearing that Zhao Wuji was a spy planted next to her. Although she doesn't know who arranged it, having such a person under her nose is still unsettling.

Gan Luo walked up to Zhao Wuji and lifted his chin from above.

This position was too humiliating for Zhao Wuji. His first reaction was to shake off Gan Luo's hand, but Gan Luo's hand was made of some unknown material and was as strong as a shackle. He couldn't break free, and his chin hurt even more.

"Your face is indeed not bad, but your insides are already rotten. Although your father is the Grand Tutor, you still have no official position. People outside respect you as Young Master Zhao only because of me. Once you leave me, you should take a look at what you have left."

Zhao Wuji was bewildered by Gan Luo's attitude. This woman was always someone he could summon and dismiss at will, but now she was threatening him.

If the scene were different, he might have believed it, but with Xu Jinxin present, Zhao Wuji instantly understood.

“Gan Luo, Jin Xin only brought a doctor to visit me. I am already the princess’s woman and am not worthy of Princess Xu.”

Equally bewildered, Xu Jinxin realized what was happening when she heard Zhao Wuji's voice. It turned out he was jealous, and his attitude was quite intimidating. A sense of resentment welled up in her heart.

Relying on being the emperor's own sister, she acted recklessly, even humiliating a brilliant young man like Zhao Wuji.

“Cousin, I’m just worried about Young Master Zhao. What exactly happened yesterday? Why did you punish him by making him kneel? If this gets back to the students, your reputation will be ruined…”

Zhao Wuji held a high position among the students.

Xu Jinxin used this to threaten her, simply to provoke her anger.

Xu Jinxin anticipated that Gan Luo would immediately fly into a rage and order all the students to be arrested and beaten, but the expected situation did not occur.

Gan Luo stared at her with eyes so cold they could freeze a person to death.

“Xu Jinxin, Zhao Wuji is my consort. You are an unmarried girl who runs to him every few days. You really don’t care about your reputation.”

Xu Jinxin's pretty face instantly turned red, a little embarrassed: "Cousin, what nonsense are you talking about? I was just... concerned about you, cousin. Besides, isn't Young Master Zhao the prince consort?"

"Concerned about me? My palace isn't here. As for the consort, I don't like to force people. Since Young Master Zhao is so unwilling, then I'll set you free. Yuan Zheng, escort Zhao Wuji and Xu Jinxin out."

Zhao Wuji and Xu Jinxin couldn't believe what they had heard. After waiting for a while, Gan Luo showed no sign of changing his mind. Yuan Zheng had already dragged him to the door, and Zhao Wuji panicked.

"Gan Luo, what's wrong with you? There's a limit to being unreasonable!"

Zhao Wuji didn't believe that Gan Luo would really kick him out. In his eyes, everything Gan Luo had done from yesterday until now was just to attract his attention.

After all, Gan Luo had just proposed to the Emperor that he be the emperor's son-in-law, but the Emperor had always disagreed. In addition, the Grand Tutor was the Emperor's teacher, so the Emperor had to give him some face. He only issued an edict to let Gan Luo and Zhao Wuji cultivate their relationship.

Gan Luo scoffed coldly, his eyes still gleaming with icy light, his demeanor impeccable, a stark contrast to the roaring Zhao Wuji.
