Chapter 269 I Still Forgave You
With a sad and angry mood, Piero told Gu Chen all the above things.
After hearing this, Gu Chen was a little surprised but not particularly surprised:
"I see.
You are fighting for the throne of a prince and you are apologizing, but in the final analysis it is all for the sake of God’s heart.
As long as I don't give in, Zhongli will not give you the Heart of God.
Haha, I never expected that the normal God's Heart transaction would be stuck here."
Piero's expression remained unchanged, and his attitude remained sincere:
"So, we really want to gain Master Gu Chen's forgiveness!"
After Piero expressed this meaning, Gu Chen stopped talking for a while.
He picked up the teacup in front of him and drank the tea slowly, looking calm and relaxed.
This clearly meant to leave Piero hanging and make him nervous!
After finally finishing his cup of tea, while Rosalin offered to refill his tea, Gu Chen asked Xiang Ningguang:
"Ningguang, do you think I should forgive them?"
Ningguang was a little caught off guard.
Ningguang looked at Gu Chen with a hint of surprise, but she had no intention of interfering in other people's affairs.
"Everything depends on your own decision, Master Gu Chen. It is not convenient for me to interfere."
Gu Chen smiled, signaling Ningguang not to be so nervous:
"This isn't the General Affairs Department, nor is it Yuehai Pavilion. There's no need to be so tense. Just tell me what you think."
Since Gu Chen said so, Ningguang couldn't refuse anymore.
After thinking for a while, she asked tentatively:
"In my opinion, the Fatui's apology this time can be said to be a way to please Lord Gu Chen.
In terms of sincerity, they are still very sincere.
In terms of attitude, they also keep a low profile.
After all, this is the Fatui leader himself coming to visit."
While Ningguang was saying this, Piero just sat there with a stern face and didn't react, as if Ningguang wasn't talking about him.
After hearing Ningguang's words, Gu Chen looked at Piero leisurely:
"That makes sense..."
At this time, Rosalind had already refilled Gu Chen's cup of tea.
After refilling the tea, she stood next to Gu Chen's sofa again, still looking ready to serve at any time.
Gu Chen took it easy and continued to drink tea with the cup in hand.
Piero waited quietly, showing considerable patience.
Ningguang remained silent, well aware of the mentality of those who watch the show.
After half a cup of tea, Gu Chen put down the teacup:
"Okay, I forgive you!"
After these words were spoken, Piero finally lost his previous calmness and composure.
He immediately turned his head, his eyes slightly widened:
"really!?"
Gu Chen looked solemnly:
"really.
However, don't be too happy too soon.
The part I forgive you for is only limited to the part related to the Osel incident.
I don't intend to settle the accounts of the Doctor's past offenses against Liyue.
If the Fatui mess with me again, I will be even more ruthless.
Do you understand?"
Piero looked a little serious and nodded:
"I see.
It’s a good result for us.”
Seeing that Piero seemed to be relieved without any expression, Gu Chen said again:
"Then from now on, Rosaline will be my personal maid, and Young Master will be my errand boy in Liyue."
Piero nodded slowly:
"That's natural. That's what we just agreed on."
"Also... did you, the Fatui, retain Rosaline's original executive officer position?"
When asked this question by Gu Chen, Piero looked serious:
"Her Majesty the Queen did not deprive Rosalyn of her position as Executive Officer. She remains the eighth seat."
Nodding, Gu Chen didn't care much:
"I see. That's okay."
After saying this, he picked up the half cup of tea in front of him again.
Although he picked up the teacup, Gu Chen did not drink it. Instead, he looked at Piero calmly:
"This way, you can ask Zhongli for the Heart of God. I guess he won't give you any more trouble."
Seeing Gu Chen serving tea, Piero, who was familiar with Liyue etiquette, immediately understood that this meant serving tea to see off the guests.
Without any hesitation, Piero got up from the sofa quickly and efficiently.
When he stood up, Gu Chen was still sitting quietly on the sofa, picking up the teacup and drinking the remaining half of the tea.
Ningguang felt a little concerned when she saw Piero stand up.
She wondered if she should also stand up and see him off.
Even if it is not actually sent out, it is good to express this attitude a little bit. After all, the other party is the leader of the Fatui.
but……
Seeing Gu Chen standing still and steady as a rock, and seeing Paimeng and Shen He also not moving, Ningguang suddenly wanted to take advantage of the situation.
So she stopped moving and just sat on the sofa, watching Piero get up.
After standing up, Piero bowed slightly to Gu Chen:
"Lord Gu Chen, on behalf of the Fatui and Winter Solstice, I thank you for your magnanimity.
We are really sorry for bothering you and causing you a lot of inconvenience.
Then I will take my leave now."
Gu Chen was still holding the teacup. He did not ask the guest to stay, but just nodded at Piero.
Next, Piero took two steps back, turned around and walked forward, leaving the main living room.
However, as soon as he stepped out of the living room door, his attention was inevitably attracted by some movement nearby.
I turned my head and saw that the blue ahoge was still hiding behind the corner.
It goes without saying that Funina must still be hiding there.
I wonder if she eavesdropped and how much she overheard?
Just as Piero paused and hesitated, Gu Chen's warning and urging voice came from behind him:
"That's none of your business, Harlequin."
Piero immediately walked forward again without saying a word.
He strode past the garden in front of the mansion, soon arrived at the door of the mansion, and finally pushed open the door and left Anranju.
After Piero left completely, the only people left in the main living room were completely his own people.
Gu Chen sat on the sofa, Paimeng floated beside him, Rosaline stood beside the sofa, Shen He sat on the side of the sofa, and Ningguang sat further away.
These people each had their own thoughts and feelings, and no one spoke for a while.
Suddenly, Shen He, who had been quiet all this time, couldn't help but speak out:
"Gu Chen, Mr. Zhongli... is the Emperor?"
When asked this question by Shen He, Paimeng, who had also been quiet, couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Scratching his head, Paimon felt that there was no way to hide this matter anymore:
"That... this... Zhongli..."
Gu Chen simply laid his cards on the table:
“That’s right, Zhongli is the Rock King.
All those things about the Emperor being killed and being saved by me and falling into a deep sleep were all fake. It was all a play performed by Zhongli and me.
Shen He, it's good for you to know this, but you must not disclose it to anyone else."
Shen He nodded seriously:
"I see.
The fact that Mr. Zhongli is the Emperor must be kept secret.
Just like the fact that Funina is the water goddess, it cannot be revealed to others!"
Ningguang, who was drinking tea next to her, almost spit out the tea in her mouth!
