I Am Born With A Silver Spoon Novel Chapter 658

Gu Yuxiao?

It really was her!

As it turned out, she was still alive!

Back then, the two of them got to know each other during the journey to the Sea Palace. Along the way, Chen Hao had saved her life many times.

At the entrance to the Sea Palace, they had been knocked unconscious due to the impact of the Spirit Flower. By the time he woke up, Gu Yuxiao had disappeared, and Chen Hao had been living in remorse since then.

He had even sent some men to carry out a meticulous search in the surrounding waters for over a month. In the end, he failed to determine if she was alive or dead.

At that time, Chen Hao had speculated that she was still alive and had already been rescued by someone. Moreover, she had probably found the body of the lady in white as well.

After all, it was within Chen Hao’s knowledge that Gu Yuxiao was also in search of the lady in white.

It never occurred to him that half of his speculations would be true.

Why is she here?

Isn’t she from the Gu Family?

Bewildered, Chen Hao executed a mystical skill.

Soon, Gu Yuxiao started to look better.

Her mesmerizing eyes twitched slightly before her eyelids slightly lifted.

She was taken aback by the sight of Chen Hao in front of her. Then, she immediately grabbed Chen Hao’s arms.

“Chen Hao, there are people going after you! Run!” she exclaimed anxiously.

“Are you referring to them?”

Chen Hao helped her up and showed her the bodies floating on the surface of the river.

“Did you kill all seven of them?” asked Gu Yuxiao in disbelief.

“Yes! If I am not mistaken, all of them are members of your family, right?” asked Chen Hao.

Gu Yuxiao lowered her head as a tinge of redness flashed across her pretty face. “Yes, the seven of them were highly-skilled fighters of our family. I didn’t expect them to track me down and attack me with the Spirit Flower. I knew they were going to do something bad to you!”

“It seems like you have been keeping a lot of secrets from me. Only now do I finally realize you’re not so bad a fighter. At that time, I was unable to discern the unusual Inner Energy in your body. Have you been putting up an act all this while?” asked Chen Hao in an understanding tone.

“Yes, I had indeed lied to you. But Chen Hao, ever since we started to get to know each other, I never intended to harm you, not at all!” clarified Gu Yuxiao anxiously.

It was as though she desperately wanted to avoid being misunderstood by Chen Hao.

“Do you think I will still believe you? A distinguished lady of the Gu Family?” countered Chen Hao with a forced smile.

“Regardless of whether you believe me or not, we shouldn’t stay here for too long. Follow me to my hide-out and I will slowly explain everything to you!” implored Gu Yuxiao.

As Chen Hao was looking at her, her eyes were filled with sincerity.

However, he was no longer his old self from two years ago. The more beautiful a woman was, the better she was at lying.

Back then, he used to be tricked and deceived by this pretty lady.

Now, he could not help but be more vigilant.

If he were to fall into her trap once again, it was unlikely that he would be able to get away unscathed.

He could see that the Inner Energy contained in Gu Yuxiao’s body was unusual. However, she was currently no match for him at all.

In fact, Chen Hao was afraid of the Spirit Flower, not her.

“I know you’re afraid of the Spirit Flower. I will throw all of them away now and stay by your side. I don’t think you have to be afraid of me at all, as you’re capable enough to kill the seven highly skilled fighters of my family.”

It was as though Gu Yuxiao was answering the inner doubts in Chen Hao’s mind. She fished out the Spirit Flower and scattered each and every petal on the surface of the river.

“Do you finally trust me now? I invited you here to offer my explanations. However, I didn’t expect my great grandmother to send her men to track me down!” she explained.

As she was speaking, her eyes teared up and started to turn red.

“I didn’t mean to bring you harm, Chen Hao!”

“Well, since the Spirit Flower is no longer with you now, I don’t have to worry about you playing any tricks on me. At most, we will just perish together!” said Chen Hao after taking a deep breath.

He then grabbed Gu Yuxiao’s shoulders before leaping to the bank from the boat.

After Gu Yuxiao had informed him of the location of the hide-out, Chen Hao grabbed hold of her and rushed toward the location.

Chen Hao could not help but be more wary.

Currently, his skills were still not good enough to fight the King of Nine Doors and Yun Qing.

Moreover, he had to deal with the mysterious Gu Family.

The two of them reached a cave in a mountain located in the outskirts of the town.

Chen Hao sealed the flow of several blood vessels in Gu Yuxiao’s body.

“Hehe, until now, you still don’t trust me. Do you still think I will bring you harm?” Gu Yuxiao took a deep breath as she tried to suppress the disappointment deep down inside her.

“For some people, I choose to believe only once, not twice!” replied Chen Hao rigidly.

“Spill. You promised to tell me everything and only the truth.”

“I’ve got it. However, I still have a question for you. Previously, you saved my life numerous times and you helped me in a lot of ways. Furthermore, after what happened to me, you continuously sent your men to look for me in the sea for over a month. You even instructed the seamen in that area to inform you immediately once they found me. Did you do all these things just to get the answer you wanted from me, or because of other reasons?” Gu Yuxiao asked Chen Hao with red eyes tinged with a layer of moisture.

As it turned out, she knew about everything he had done and had cared about it.

“In the beginning, I agreed to bring you along to the Sea Palace because on one hand I was worried about your safety; on the other hand I also wanted to get some clues from you. After that incident happened, it was because of self-blame. I promised to bring you there but I had failed to bring you out, hence I was overcome with guilt! That was why I cracked my head trying to think of all kinds of ways just to look for you!” explained Chen Hao.

Back then, Chen Hao had actually offered her help to suit his own needs.

However, Chen Hao found it hard to leave such a young girl to continue her journey all alone.

Therefore, he agreed to bring her along to the Sea Palace. He had not anticipated that she would perish at sea. Because of this, Chen Hao had been sad and remorseful for a long period of time.

If he knew that this would happen, he would have given up the chance to gain those secrets and refuse to bring her there.

As Gu Yuxiao was listening to him, the corners of her mouth curled up in a gratified smile.

At least, she was sure that Chen Hao had once treated her as a friend.

She started to develop feelings for Chen Hao not only because of that accursed Master Ghost’s Marriage Stone, but also because of how Chen Hao saved her life numerous times.

At first, Gu Yuxiao was tasked to assassinate Chen Hao. However, because of her feelings toward him, she could not make herself do it.

Otherwise, Chen Hao would have never reached the Sea Palace.

Of course, Gu Yuxiao had yet to fall in love with Chen Hao at that moment. She just couldn’t make herself do it.

Things stayed that way up until the incident that happened to her. She disguised herself and saw how Chen Hao had nearly overturned the ocean just to look for her.

On top of that, he sat on the seashore in solitude for an entire day and just stared at the sea.

He had managed to salvage a piece of her jewelry from the sea. In the end, he tossed it back into the waters.

Undoubtedly, Chen Hao was overwhelmed by guilt and self-reproach at that time.

He had indeed treated her as his friend.

Gu Yuxiao found it very sweet and endearing. Throughout her entire life, no one had ever treated her that way before.

As she recalled the moments she had with Chen Hao, she finally realized the wickedness of Master Ghost’s Marriage Stone.

She began to miss Chen Hao every single day and constantly worried about his safety.

The more she thought about him, the more anxious she became. She tossed and turned, finding it hard to sleep…

Could my love life be ending on such a sad note? Am I falling in love with a man who will never love me back?

No matter what, Gu Xiao had pledged not to deceive Chen Hao twice.

“Fine, I will tell you everything I know! After this, any existing relationship between us will have to come to an end. Hehe, I’m afraid we can no longer be friends in the future!” said Gu Yuxiao before taking a deep breath.
