Chapter 1638: Chapter 1638: Can’t Do Anything
She had admitted her mistakes and had been hung for two days already, couldn’t they forgive her by now? She had thought it through; Qian Jiyun must have been doing this just for show.
If she could regain her freedom and rest well, then present herself beautifully before Qian Jiyun, she would certainly gain his favor.
As long as she was valued, everyone’s life would improve, wouldn’t it?
“If you anger Prince Zhan Yun, Junior Sister Qingyu, have you thought about the fact that this is their ship, on this vast sea, where would we go from here?” Brother Zheen asked her in a calm voice.
“What do you mean, where would we go from here?” Gu Qingyu asked.
Give them a hundred guts, and they still wouldn’t dare, would they? Killing them might be simple, but they had backers too, not just anyone could move against them.
“Brother Zheen, they have had me hung for two days now, is that not enough? Can’t you plead for me? They wouldn’t really throw us into the sea out of annoyance, would they?”
She didn’t care, she couldn’t be hung up any longer, the feeling was too unbearable.
Especially at night when the sea breeze lashed against her cheeks painfully; she almost wished she could just die, but then again, she felt indignant.
Why should she get nothing, while that woman could be held in Qian Jiyun’s arms?
She couldn’t go on like this, she had to hook that man while there was still time, even if it wasn’t that man, another would do as well.
Although she hadn’t seen him, anyone who could stand with Qian Jiyun must be no ordinary person, wasn’t he a prince, after all?
Brother Zheen stayed silent, watching the expressions that flickered over Gu Qingyu’s face; he knew what she was thinking.
His face turned cold immediately, and he scoffed in his heart.
“You can ask the other senior brothers if they are willing to plead for you,” he said.
“Eh!”
One of the senior brothers instinctively turned his body away upon hearing Brother Zheen’s words, not wanting to deal with Gu Qingyu.
What a joke, who were they to these people? Why should others care about them? Gu Qingyu had been hung for just shouting a few words, if it were them…
He didn’t doubt for a second the possibility of them being thrown into the sea to feed the Sea Demonic Beasts.
“Junior Sister Qingyu, I have some things to take care of over there, so I’ll be going back first,” another senior brother was more direct, immediately finding an excuse to leave.
He hurried away as if afraid Gu Qingyu would call him back.
Another senior brother didn’t even say a word, simply turning and leaving; whoever wanted to plead could do so, but it wouldn’t be him. This was nonsense; he didn’t have such influence.
“You… you…”
Gu Qingyu watched as they one by one left, her eyes reddening with anger.
She hadn’t even said anything yet, and they were already acting like this. What did they intend to do? Was all the pampering and indulgence they showed her on ordinary days fake?
Was she no longer their most beloved junior sister?
“Brother Zheen…”
Tears swirled in her eyes as she looked up at Brother Zheen.
“Don’t look at me, I’m not familiar with Prince Zhan Yun,” Brother Zheen cut off what she was about to say, speaking bluntly.
“But didn’t you give him the Sky Phoenix Grass? He will surely listen to you because of the Sky Phoenix Grass. Brother Zheen, please help me,” Gu Qingyu reminded him pitifully.
She must get to the cabin; she couldn’t bear being hung any longer. Hanging there, she couldn’t do anything.
