A yellow figure flashed past the door. Qing'er covered her mouth with her slender fingers, her delicate face streaked with tears. The voice of that handsome young man flashed through her mind.
Do you regret it?
No regrets, because of love.
"How stupid."
Qing'er ran to the backyard, raised her delicate face and looked into the distance. "Young master, I want to change my mind about the question you asked last time." Tears streamed down her face; her heart was broken. It was time to end this relationship.
In the living room of Baihua Manor, Wan'er lay lazily on the soft couch, while Xiao Xue snuggled against her legs from time to time, then raised her little head and looked disdainfully at the three handsome men who were eyeing her covetously.
Zi Yi shook her head with amusement and said, "Master, it has been done as you wished. Now the whole continent is talking about the Hundred Flowers Kingdom." Wan'er's captivating phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of her lips curled up. "Good, not bad."
Then she looked at Hong Ao and said, "Old man, I've specially allowed you to return to your hometown. What do you say?" Hong Ao was furious at the mention of "old man," but the following words surprised him, followed by overwhelming excitement and nostalgia. "Good, of course, good," Wan'er smiled. Actually, despite her...
She was always bickering with the old man, but she had long since come to regard him as one of her own, and the old man was well aware of this.
At this moment, the man in black entered the room and said, "Master, a man claiming to be the master of the Lonely Pavilion and a woman request an audience." Wan'er rose slightly, her delicate eyebrows raised. "The Lonely Pavilion? A woman." Thinking of this, Wan'er felt a sudden surge of irritation. "Then, please let the master in. Have the woman wait outside." "Yes." The man in black accepted the order and left.
Yunnuo sat gracefully, her captivating phoenix eyes slightly closed, a faint smile playing on her lips. Jin Fan remained as gentle as ever, with an expression of indifference. Ruo Xiao, on the other hand, simply shook her head helplessly. Hong Ao, still immersed in joy, could be ignored.
Outside Hundred Flowers Manor, the man in black opened the door, saying, "Please enter alone, Master. This woman, please wait outside." Wan Luo merely nodded indifferently, his heart filled with unease. Beside him, Yu Xueyuan was biting her lower lip tightly, looking innocently at the man in black, her eyes full of pleading. The man in black glanced at Yu Xueyuan with utter disgust, then turned and left. Wan Luo glanced at Yu Xueyuan before following the man in black inside.
Seeing this, Yu Xueyuan was about to step forward as well, but the guards looked at her with disgust. They had all served the manor lord for many years; how could they not see through her? They blocked Yu Xueyuan's path with their weapons and said coldly, "Please wait, young lady."
A deep malice flashed in Yu Xueyuan's eyes. "Brother, please be lenient with me." As she spoke, she stuffed a silver ingot into the guard's hand. Upon seeing this, the guard was even more disgusted and threw the silver back to Yu Xueyuan, coldly snorting, "Please wait outside, young lady."
Yu Xueyuan glared fiercely at the guards, then turned and stood back in her original spot to wait. The malice in her eyes did not escape the guards' notice, but they simply ignored it. The woman in purple in the distance took in everything and turned to walk towards the main hall.

Handsome Men Gathering Chapter 51 So What
Chapter 51 So What? In the hall, the woman in purple quickly stopped beside Wan'er, leaned down and whispered, "The Master is indeed wise, everything is as you predicted." Wan'er leisurely sipped her fragrant tea, snorted coldly, and waved her long sleeves. The woman in purple understood and retreated behind Wan'er.
Wan'er stood up, facing away from him, her captivating phoenix eyes slightly closed, her slender hands behind her back. When Wan Luo entered the room, he saw Wan'er's beautiful back. "Wan'er," Wan'er said, still with her back to Wan Luo, expressionless, her alluring cherry lips slightly parted, her voice cold, "Li Luo, the master of the Lonely Pavilion? Heh, what brings you here?"
Wanluo said anxiously, "Wan'er, I didn't lie to you. I was really seriously injured and captured by Wu Yan at that time. You happened to rescue me. From that day on, I was no longer called Liluo but Wanluo."
Wan'er opened her captivating phoenix eyes, her voice still icy cold. "So what?" Wan Luo was stunned, staring intently at Wan'er as if trying to see right through her. "I love you." Wan'er sneered, but her heart trembled. Wan'er turned around and glanced at Wan Luo calmly. "But I don't love you."
Wanluo's steps faltered, his heart aching so much he felt like he was suffocating. His weathered voice slowly uttered, "I've come to ask the divine physician to cure Xue'er's illness." Wan'er felt a sudden pang of pain in her heart, but she forced herself to remain calm and said, "Jinfan, go ahead." Jinfan nodded slightly, walked to Wanluo's side, patted his shoulder, and the two of them strode away.
On the road, Jin Fan walked calmly, saying, "You must work hard and not be discouraged. Emperor Zi Ye Yu Xun of Zi Ye Kingdom and Emperor Nan Sang Lin of Nan Sang Kingdom are also working hard." He walked straight ahead after saying this, but his alluring lips curved into a smile, making him more beautiful than an immortal.
Wanluo stopped and smiled as she watched Jinfan's retreating figure. 'Yes, he shouldn't be discouraged.'
When the magnificent gate opened, Jin Fan walked out with a smile. He was so handsome that Yu Xueyuan was momentarily stunned and forgot to breathe.
Jin Fan's handsome face was still smiling, but who could see the fleeting disgust in his charming eyes? "Are you Miss Yu Xueyuan?"
A captivating, magnetic voice pulled Yu Xueyuan back to reality. Feigning weakness, she replied, "Yes, young master is...?"
Jin Fan scoffed inwardly at the woman's disgusting behavior, but outwardly said, "I am Jin Fan, and I have come to treat this young lady on the orders of my wife." Yu Xueyuan's smiling face suddenly darkened, and her eyes flashed with a deep, dark light. "Then, thank you for your trouble, Young Master Jin." Wan Luo, who was following behind Jin Fan, frowned and remained silent.
Jin Fan nodded indifferently, "Please come in." He then turned and left without another glance at Yu Xueyuan. The guards outside the door showed obvious disdain, infuriating Yu Xueyuan, but she couldn't reveal her true feelings in front of such a handsome man. Following Wan Luo, she moved gracefully away.

Chapter Fifty-Two: Gathering of Handsome Men - Going Bad
In Chapter 52 of "Handsome Men Gather," Wan'er nestled gracefully in Yun Nuo's arms in the garden. Ruo Xiao diligently poured tea and water for Wan'er, secretly plotting to solidify his title as her husband tonight. Of course, Wan'er was unaware that she had been secretly booked by someone tonight.
Jin Fan led Wan Luo and Yu Xueyuan into the garden. Jin Fan quickly stepped forward, his eyes filled with a tenderness that made people jealous. "Wife, I've taken on this job. What reward do you have for me?" Wan'er's eyes darted around, and she looked at Xiao Xue, who was lying beside her, and teased, "How about letting Xiao Xue keep you company tonight?"
Jin Fan was taken aback and was about to protest. Wan'er preemptively said, "Protest denied." Jin Fan had no choice but to give up.
Wan'er gracefully stood up, turning to look at the newcomer—or rather, at Yu Xueyuan. She wore a flowing pink dress with daffodils and green leaves, adorned with large peony blossoms and emerald green gauze. A pearl and jade hairpin adorned her low-hanging hair, and her face was as beautiful as a lotus emerging from water. "Ha, what a pretentious woman," Wan'er thought of Yu Xueyuan. Her eyes were icy as she said, "Miss Yu Xueyuan?"
Yu Xueyuan was stunned. A single glance from her could topple a city, a second glance could topple a nation. The woman before her was practically a celestial being, beautiful enough to inspire envy. A shadow fell over Yu Xueyuan's eyes. "Yes."
Wan'er stopped looking at her and said to the man in black beside her, "Take Miss Xueyuan and the Pavilion Master to the guest rooms." The man in black acknowledged the order, "Yes, Master. This way, please." He led the way, with Wanluo and Yu Xueyuan following closely behind. Of course, Wan'er did not miss the jealousy and ruthlessness in Yu Xueyuan's eyes.
Yunnuo looked at Wan'er affectionately, "Is this alright?" Wan'er smiled calmly, "Of course it's alright. I have plenty of time to torment this ready-made toy." Yunnuo smiled helplessly, "You." Wan'er said calmly, "Tomorrow, we'll set off for the Palace of a Hundred Flowers."
Night fell quickly, and a tall, slender figure silently slipped into Wan'er's boudoir. As soon as the window was closed, a flash of light stung Ruoxiao's eyes, making it hard for her to open them.
Wan'er sat leisurely at the table, sipping fragrant tea. "You've been corrupted by Yunnuo," Ruoxiao said, feeling wronged. "Wan'er, I..."
"I know." Before Ruoxiao could finish speaking, Wan'er interrupted him, continuing, "You've regained your memories, I know." Ruoxiao looked at Wan'er in shock, "You... you knew everything? I'm sorry."
Wan'er smiled faintly, put down her teacup, and walked to Ruoxiao's side. "There's no need to blame yourself. I know you'll speak when you want to. I believe you." Ruoxiao, moved, hugged Wan'er tightly. "And also, today I'm going to solidify my title of husband." He then lowered his head and kissed Wan'er's alluring cherry lips, their tongues entwining. Wan'er's integrity... it seems he's truly gone astray.
The full moon outside shyly covered its eyes, a blush spreading across its smiling cheeks.
(Robbery! Hand over all the money, and remember I'll rob you again next time.)
The Gathering of Handsome Men: Chapter Fifty-Three - The Test
Chapter 53: The Test of the Gathering of Handsome Men On the wide road, a carriage was traveling. Inside the carriage, Ruoxiao said anxiously, "Wan'er, if you leave Jinfan at the manor like this, he will be angry."
Wan'er leisurely ate her pastries. "This is a test for him." Ruo Xiao was stunned, and the corners of her lips that had been curving upwards also froze in mid-air. "A test?"
Wan'er smiled mischievously as she glanced at the two handsome men. "Of course, you two will also have to go through this, but..."
"But what?" the two handsome men asked in unison. Wan'er smiled slyly, "I won't tell you." The two handsome men had no choice but to give up.
It was still a sea of flowers, but the difference was that at the end of this sea of flowers stood an incomparably majestic crystal palace.
Wan'er looked at Yunnuo and said, "You got in so easily. What if someone broke in..." Yunnuo smiled indulgently and reached out to stroke Wan'er's hair, saying, "Don't worry, this place recognizes its master. Obviously, you are the master here, and we are your husbands. Master Hong Ao has bloodlines here, so anyone you approve of can come in."
Wan'er nodded knowingly. "No wonder I was fine when I brought that old man in last time."
Inside the Crystal Palace, on the majestic, climbing phoenix throne, Wan'er sat elegantly. Below her sat an elderly man in plain clothes, who respectfully said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects." Wan'er's captivating face remained calm. "Rise." The old man rose slowly, raising his aged face. The sorrow on his face told of his long and arduous life. This...this...this is not...
Wan'er's alluring cherry lips curved into a smile. "Zi Ye Zhe, are you doing well here?" Indeed, this old man was the former emperor of Zi Ye Kingdom, Zi Ye Zhe, the father of Zi Ye Yu Xun. Zi Ye Zhe smiled calmly. "Thanks to Your Majesty's favor, I am doing very well." Wan'er looked directly at Zi Ye Zhe and said, "That's good."
Zi Yezhe did not die that day, but was only unconscious. Wan'er couldn't bear it, so she took him to the Hundred Flowers Kingdom.
Hong Ao trotted over to Zi Yezhe's side, patted him on the shoulder, and shook his head, "Old man, I never thought that you, a former emperor, would be reduced to a minister in my Hundred Flowers Kingdom. How pathetic and laughable."
Zi Yezhe slapped Hong Ao's hand away in exasperation, "You old fool, who do you think you are? If you've got the guts, let's have a go at it!" Hong Ao laughed loudly, "Go ahead and fight, I'm not afraid of you." The two old men chatted back and forth happily. Wan'er, sitting on the phoenix chair, shook her head with a faint smile.
Inside Hundred Flowers Manor, Jin Fan remained as gentle as ever, yet somehow he exuded a chilling aura. 'That wretched girl, leaving me all alone! Just wait until you get back, I'll teach her a lesson!'
"Young Master, can my illness be cured?" Yu Xueyuan was dressed in her finest attire today, because Jin Fan had come to treat her. She stared intently at him, her voice unpleasant. Jin Fan replied calmly, "This illness is nothing serious. I'll prescribe a few doses of medicine." With that, Jin Fan prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Yu Xueyuan quickly grabbed Jin Fan's sleeve, stood up, and snuggled into his arms before he could react. "Young Master Jin, you saved my life. How about I repay you with my body?" she said, her little hands wandering restlessly over Jin Fan's body.
Jin Fan raised an eyebrow and said, "Oh, then what should the Pavilion Master of Lonely Pavilion do?" Yu Xueyuan was taken aback, her eyes darting around. "How can he compare to you, young master?" Jin Fan chuckled. "I'm afraid you want both, young lady." Yu Xueyuan froze, a look of bewilderment flashing in her eyes.
Disgust flashed in Jin Fan's eyes. He reached out and pushed Yu Xueyuan away, patting his clothes in disgust. "Wan Luo is really blind." He turned around and left without looking at Yu Xueyuan again.

Chapter 54 of "Gathering of Handsome Men": Inviting a Wolf into the House?
Chapter 54 of "Gathering of Handsome Men": Inviting a Wolf into the House? Inside the Crystal Palace, Wan'er strolled around. "Are all the common people willing to come?" Yun Nuo followed behind her and said calmly, "A considerable number of people have migrated. After all, this is a sacred place, and no one can find out exactly where the Hundred Flowers Kingdom is."
Wan'er nodded thoughtfully. "That's true. It's not a wise choice to let a lot of people move in. It would be better to build a city outside and let those relocated people live there. They can then be registered as citizens of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom. Ministers should carefully select more people to avoid inviting trouble."
Yunnuo nodded in agreement, "That's how it should be." Wan'er suddenly seemed to have thought of something, "That's right, let Ruoxiao be the Grand General of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, and Yunnuo, you will be the Prime Minister of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, how about that?" Yunnuo was slightly taken aback, "Wan'er, we are both your husbands." Wan'er pouted slightly, "Who said a husband can't be an official? If I say he can be, then he must be. Since we're afraid of letting wolves into the house, then all the power and authority will be in our own hands. Even if wolves come in, they won't gain anything, right?" Yunnuo understood, "This method should be followed carefully, then I, as your husband, will respectfully obey."
At this moment, Ruo Xiao, Hong Ao, and Zi Ye Zhe rushed over. Ruo Xiao heard from afar that Wan'er wanted him to be the Great General of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom. Knowing that he couldn't refuse her, he could only respectfully obey.
Wan'er nodded to Hong'ao and the other, saying, "I should leave now. I'll send people from Hundred Flowers Manor to handle the town's construction. You two..."
"Stay here and keep watch, understand?" Hong Ao and the other man replied, "We will certainly not fail Your Majesty's expectations." Wan'er nodded in satisfaction. "Ruo Xiao, grant your request. Let's go back. I'm waiting to see the results of the experiment."
Upon hearing this, Hong Ao, who was standing to the side, was displeased. "I say, you brat, our Jin Fan is devoted to you, why are you torturing him like this?" Wan'er teased, "Could it be that Mr. Hong Ao is lonely? I'll find you a companion tomorrow." Her words left Hong Ao speechless.
Zi Yezhe looked at Wan'er, hesitant to speak. Wan'er sighed softly, "What do you want to say? Just say it." Zi Yezhe pondered, then his aged, weathered voice rang out, "Wan'er, I hope you can forgive Yu Xun." Wan'er was startled, then ignored Zi Yezhe and turned to leave.
