CapĂtulo 1565: Chapter 1565: Other Peopleâs âMermaidâ vs. Competitive Villain (Part 54)
Prince Jonathan has left.
Gu Shengyin looked at the man exuding coldness, a clear âIâm not happyâ expression on his face.
âAre you angry?â she asked.
Raymond didnât speak.
Gu Shengyin shook her hand, still held by him, and said, âDonât be angry, itâs not worth it to be upset over someone irrelevant like that.â
Raymond turned his head and saw the little mermaid, just reaching his shoulder, staring at him with her big blue eyes unblinkingly.
In those gentle wells of spring, they were filled with his own reflection.
The irritation and restlessness rising in his heart gradually settled with such comfort.
He squeezed her hand tightly and nodded, âYouâre right, Tiana, itâs not worth it for someone like that.â
His expression suddenly softened, and he leaned over to plant a gentle kiss on Gu Shengyinâs cheek.
Gu Shengyin widened her eyes and looked at Raymond.
Being able to become the empireâs male idol, aside from Raymondâs status and position, another important factor is his looks.
This marshal, who had conquered countless men and mermaids of the empire, undoubtedly had outstanding looks.
But in his daily life, he always appeared aloof and unapproachable, making people feel there was an unbridgeable gap between them and him.
Yet now, his aura softened, even the corners of his mouth lifted into a faint smile.
That gap instantly disappeared.
And the charm belonging to this face was finally fully revealed to Gu Shengyin.
Gu Shengyin had seen countless beauties.
But at this moment, she was still captivated by Raymond.
For that gentleness like melting ice just for her.
Her hand involuntarily touched Raymondâs face, murmuring, âYour smile is really beautiful, Kagel.â
Raymond let her touch his face.
He lowered his head, gazing at the little mermaid in front of himâher eyes filled with pure affection, like the tranquil surface of a blue lake suddenly reflecting the brilliance of the moon, so bright that one couldnât look away.
He couldnât help but move closer to that pool of blue.
The gentle touch lingered on her eyes, and Gu Shengyin heard the slightly warm breath brushing against her face.
âDo you like it? Then from now on, Iâll smile for you every day.â
Luckily, they both remembered they were outside, and the place wasnât secluded. Their identities werenât suitable for lingering too long without any disguise.
Gu Shengyin even noticed some people already pointing and whispering about her and Raymond.
âWhere do you want to go?â Raymond asked.
Gu Shengyin turned back to him with a smile: âDonât you have to go to the Military Department today?â
Raymond shook his head: âI have plenty of free time.â
In fact, Raymondâs attitude towards work had been regarded by many as a model of dedication.
At his level, there was no need to sit in the office of the Military Department every day.
There werenât many matters that required his effort; basically, only at the regular meetings of the Military Department was the marshal required to attend.
The rest of the time, he was free.
But before Gu Shengyin appeared, there was never any person or thing that could make Raymond utilize this free time.
Receiving Raymondâs response, Gu Shengyin tilted her head, thought for a moment, and said, âThen come with me to meet someone?â
Raymond didnât ask who it was; he just nodded.
