Chu Qianli had never been so embarrassed in her entire life.
To think she had drooled while looking at a handsome man.
Wuwuwu! Her reputation, built over a lifetime, was ruined in an instant.
Yet, it was enough to prove just how breathtakingly beautiful the man pretending to be an old grandpa was.
Unlike Feng Yexuan's flamboyant beauty, or Feng Wuya's quiet, transcendent elegance.
The old grandpa's beauty possessed no aggression; it was gentle yet not distant.
Cool, yet not indifferent.
Coupled with a touch of mature presence, akin to an elder, and the weathered resilience of someone who had experienced storms...
Ahhhhhh!
She suddenly realized that the peerlessly handsome and noble men like Prince Xuan, Prince Xiaoyao, and the Fourteenth Prince were like mere children in front of the old grandpa.
The old grandpa was truly so beautiful and captivating!
However, drooling was indeed quite embarrassing.
At this moment, she sat to the side, hugging her knees, her face filled with remorse.
"Who are you? What's your name? Why did you save me? What do you want from me? Do you want to use me? Do you know that woman in black? How is she now? Did she hurt you?"
"..." Feng Dingchu felt like laughing. "What exactly do you want me to say?"
"You say whatever I ask?" It was truly uncomfortable when he didn't speak.
The drooling incident would forever be a shadow in her life.
Feng Dingchu merely smiled and shook his head. "There are some things I cannot tell you, but half the reason I came to the imperial city this time was for you."
"For me?" Chu Qianli's head shot up abruptly, and as her gaze met his, her face flushed again.
This reaction made Feng Dingchu want to laugh even more. "Don't panic. Drooling is nothing strange; it's like me, when I see delicious food, I'm the same as you."
"..." Chu Qianli's face turned completely dark. She couldn't help but look up and glare at him. "Can you please forget this matter from now on? Never mention it again?"
"I can't guarantee that. What if I can't help myself..."
"Try your best to endure it."
"Alright." This time, he agreed very readily.
Chu Qianli breathed a sigh of relief but couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean, for me? Do you know me?"
Yet, her memories had clearly returned, and she couldn't recall ever meeting this man.
What old grandpa? He was clearly a handsome young man in his early twenties, but his eyes confirmed he was over thirty.
However, his beard was almost reaching his chest; she wondered how many years he had grown it.
In all these years, had he truly never shown his true face?
She felt truly honored to have shaved off his years-old beard upon their first meeting.
"Wuya asked me to come and change your face," Feng Dingchu said calmly.
Chu Qianli's brow furrowed.
Wuya asked him to come?
She knew Feng Wuya had left the imperial city for Thousand Year City to find Master Wuchenzi. So...
"Are you Wuchenzi?"
Chu Qianli was so shocked her jaw almost dropped. She leaped up from the stone.
It was simply unbelievable, inexpressible!
He was Wuchenzi!
How could he be Wuchenzi!
"Wuchenzi is an old geezer!"
How could he be such a young, handsome, and peerlessly beautiful man?
Feng Dingchu felt like laughing again. "Who told you Wuchenzi was an old geezer?"
"He's been famous for a long time!"
"I am indeed not young. I became famous at a young age and am now thirty-two."
Thirty-two, while not exactly young, wasn't quite an old geezer.
So, that meant he had been renowned throughout the world since he was a child?
It was simply incredible!
Chu Qianli finally managed to calm down, still looking at him, her voice still numb. "You mean, you came here to... change my face?"
