43 Concubine?

As they chattered, the drafting feast began to finish. Empress Dauanmu Qing asked for Hua Xiu Yi for his opinion, a smile on her face, "Who do you like?"

Today's drafting feast not only for them to select a Crown Princess, but also for Hua Xiu Yi to get some concubines and servants. This,Hua Xiu Yi can choose himself.

Emperor also smiled, "If there's any woman you favour, just say her name."

Everybody turned to stare at Hua Xiu Yi. The maidens eagerly looked at him, anticipating his answer, hoping they managed to attract his attention.

Even Gu Panpan also watched eagerly. She still remembered the loving words they shared together and hoped that he did as well.

"I want her!" Hua Xiu Yi stretched out his finger, pointing at a woman.

Gu Hua was bored to death as she chatted idly with An Haden. During the banquet, she had actually become quite familiar with him.

Thankfully, this guy also didn't really like the banquet, so they both preferred to sit in the corner and eat happily.

But suddenly, everybody's eyes were on them. Gu Hua lifted her eyes and looked around. The person Hua Xiu Yi was referring to was actually her.

"I want to make Gu Hua my concubine." Hua Xiu Yi slowly said.

The entire banquet gaped in surprise at Hua Xiu Yi, then looked at Gu Hua who didn't even react.

When everyone saw that Hua Xiu Yi want to make Gu Hua his concubine there were mixed reactions, some people felt slight regret and some were hoping to add salt to the wound.

The one with the greatest reaction was An Haden. An Haden's deep eyes were half-lidded, a trace of chill was found at the bottom of his eyes. The hands that were peeling fruit for Gu Hua stopped. He prepared to stand up to kill Hua Xiu Yi.

An Haden was furious, so furious he wanted to kill. In the past, he had already lost her once and he can't afford to lose her again. The life without her was miserable, the desire of being with her again had kept him alive for so long.His heart which had stopped beating a long time ago started to beat once again because of her. So no one was allowed to desire her, no one was allowed to covet her. Whoever dared to steal her away from him, he will kill them all.

"Haden" Gu Hua suddenly grasped An Haden's hand that was accumulating his internal force. She just noticed there was something wrong with him. The Darkness surrounded An Haden as if he wanted to destroy everything. Gu Hua knew An Haden was in a bad mood. She saw the other people at their table sweated cold sweat under An Haden's pressure. Strangely, she felt fine. Under circumstances she never imagined, she grabbed An Haden's hand and intimately called his name.

A soft call caused An Haden's murderous aura to withdraw completely, but the tyranny in his eyes did not disappear. His hand squeezed Gu Hua's small hand, wrapped Gu Hua's small hand inside his palms. His low voice sounded in Gu Hua's ears," Wifey, is my wife. How dare he desire my wife, he deserves to die."

Gu Hua looked at the hand holding her small hand. The hand was slender and well-proportioned, white like jade, wider than a woman's but did not look thick and ugly, the thumb and forefeeling were slightly calloused, they were traces left by holding a pen and holding a sword all year long. Being so tightly held by such a hand, she wanted to always be held by him like this.

"I won't marry him." Gu Hua can sensitive to An Haden's unstable mood. He really will kill Hua Xiu Yi. She knew it was because of her because he cared for her.

Gu Hua's soft voice was like a spring breeze blowing over An Haden's cheeks, blowing into his heart. Thinking about Hua Xiu Yi coveting, An Haden was still angry, "But he still desires you!"

"Trust me." Seeing An Haden's dark aura rising once again, Gu Hua firmly looked at An Haden"Trust me."

Gu Hua didn't know what she was saying. She only knew if she allowed An Haden to directly kill people, then both will meet with endless troubles in the future. This wasn't that calm and wise An Haden she had seen before, but this An Haden moved her heart even more.

So far, the care that this man has shown her was not fake. If his concern is false, then he can simply go and be an Oscar winner.

'Ahhh... What's wrong with me. It's only my second meeting with him and I already feels really attached to him.'

"Really?" An Haden asked, unsure. If he was unsatisfied with Gu Hua's response, he will definitely go on a killing spree.

"Really" Gu Hua whispered in a low tone, her soft tone allowed An Haden's violence to finally quiet.
