How could he forget how Hiding Leaf treated him? Only now did he realize that although he had been intimate with his demeanor and sweet words on his mouth, those eyes, those minute movements, they could not fool him.

He was always miserly when it came to smiling at himself.

Gu Moyan withdrew her gaze and stared at the cup of wine in front of her. Both of his hands tightly gripped the corner of his clothes, as though he was forcefully suppressing his emotions that wanted to break his throat as well as swallowing the things that had yet to be said.

He was already in a depressed mood when he suddenly heard someone calling him. He thought it was just a hallucination and didn't even raise his head.

"Is Young Master Gu unwilling to play a game of chess with Nan Xuan?" Yi Nanxuan's clear voice was somewhat loud, but it was loud enough for everyone present to hear. Even his voice seemed to contain some grievance, as if he was crying for someone to ignore Gu Moyan's words.

As soon as he entered, he gave a good impression, thinking that the Emperor would inevitably restrain his temper a little bit, but now, after maintaining his good appearance for a short while, he had already revealed his original form, and it was difficult to change his true nature.

No one knew who he was trying to show off his superiority to.

A few of the younger masters were discussing amongst themselves, unable to get used to Gu Moyan's behavior. He was obviously an unfavoured concubine, where did his confidence come from?

Gu Moyan had never thought that she would be like this. It was just that she didn't want to speak, and she wasn't used to it.

He just gave up. Although he didn't say it out loud, the small emotions in his heart started to emerge. The tears that had just been held back started to gush out again.

"Does Young Master Nan Xuan want to play chess?" Gu Moyan asked in response to the address the man had given her. But in his past life, he had studied better than anyone else, so he didn't know anything about these kinds of paintings. Especially those black and white chess, he didn't even want to touch them.

I find this banquet a little boring, but I don't know if Young Master Gu can play a game of chess with me. You and I have been in the palace together for many years, and we haven't had a proper sparring. Those swordsmen aren't very used to these kinds of occasions either, only chess. I don't know if Young Master Gu is willing?

Gu Mo Yan was about to speak up, but was cut off by Yi Nan Xuan before he could do so. Perhaps it was because he saw the retreat in Gu Mo Yan's eyes.

He asked if he was willing to do it last time, and lowered his stance a little bit, as if Gu Moyan didn't want to agree and wanted to continue asking, or said many reasons that he wanted him to agree before he gave up. Even Ye Zi, who was standing behind him, didn't look too good.

His young master seemed to only know a few words and didn't know anything about this game. Obviously, he wanted to make things difficult for his young master.

However, he was only a servant, so he could not speak up and speak up for Gu Moyan. All he could do was let Gu Moyan answer or not.

Zi Ye turned to look at Mo Gu Han. Seeing that he was just watching the show, and didn't seem to care about Gu Mo Yan's expression at all, he knew that the Emperor was not willing to help his young master.

Mo Gu Han was still angered by the way Gu Mo Yan had looked at Xi Men Qingfeng. He did not have the mood to care if he was bullied or not. However, he really wanted to see how Gu Mo Yan would deal with it.
