The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 127 - 78 Practice_4
Chapter 127: Chapter 78 Practice_4
"I run a medical clinic," Gu Xingchuan said, reminding her, "Your prescription is very valuable."
"Anyhow, you’re not short on cash," Ye Qichi laughed, "Besides, what’s the harm in helping you make a fortune? The key question, though, is do you dare to make this money? Once you do, you’ll be going against the Ten Extremes Sect."
Gu Xingchuan smiled. "You always think things through."
"In fact, the most important thing is my trust in you," Ye Qichi said indifferently, "Apart from that silly Lu You of mine, you’re the person I trust the most."
Gu Xingchuan’s heartbeat skipped two beats.
"Moreover, after I leave, Lu You will often come here to get medicine from you. It’s best if you handle the prescriptions yourself. Not that I suspect there are spies in your clinic, but it’s always wise to be cautious."
"Alright." Gu Xingchuan nodded, "If I’m ever away, I’ll have someone I trust handle Lu You’s medicine."
"In that case, I can rest easy," Ye Qichi said with a slight smile.
As she spoke, she planned to rise and leave.
"Ye Qichi." Gu Xingchuan suddenly called out to her.
Calling her by her name directly.
"Hmm?" Ye Qichi nodded.
"If you’re not busy, I’d like to provide a meal for you," Gu Xingchuan said.
Once she leaves, it’s really uncertain when she’ll return.
Maybe...
No, he believed that Ye Qichi would return safely.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Qichi replied, "Alright."
Having a meal before leaving is not a bad idea either.
"Jingshui Building," Ye Qichi made her choice unabashed, "the dishes I had there last time were quite good, but because of that dog Xiao Jinxing... well, I didn’t get to enjoy it to the fullest."
"Alright." Gu Xingchuan readily agreed.
The two, along with Lu You, headed to the Jingshui Building.
Lu You actually really wanted the Princess to go back, back, back.
It would be a terrible mess if they were recognized.
Even though, the Princess had already changed into men’s clothing.
Forcing her to also dress in men’s attire.
The group entered Jingshui Building.
Just as they stepped into the lobby.
"Sister-in-law?!" A rather familiar voice suddenly rang in her ears.
Ye Qichi turned her head.
At that moment, she saw Wu Xufan.
How is he here again?!
"How come you’re here?" Wu Xufan looked quite surprised, "Are you alone... Who is this?"
He obviously noticed the man beside Ye Qichi.
And couldn’t help but take a good look.
Looking sharp and dapper... Oh no, could it be that Xiao Jinxing has been cuckolded?!
"I am Gu Xingchuan." Gu Xingchuan bowed with folded hands, displaying great decorum, truly erudite and refined.
This is bad, this is bad.
Wu Xufan felt that with such outstanding charisma, Xiao Jinxing had definitely been cuckolded.
"This is Young Master Wu Xufan from Marquis Wu’s Mansion," Ye Qichi introduced.
Clearly, Wu Xufan didn’t react, making Gu Xingchuan somewhat embarrassed.
So, this is an opportunity to defuse the awkwardness.
Look, look, look.
How considerate Ye Qichi is of her paramour.
"Wait, you are Gu Xingchuan?!" Wu Xufan asked.
His name had been heard but never his face seen.
"Young Master is familiar with me."
"Hehe." Wu Xufan laughed insincerely, "No, I don’t."
He was just wondering.
Why on earth did Xiao Jinxing bring his rival so close to himself?!
Gu Xingchuan didn’t mind Wu Xufan’s sarcasm.
Neither did Ye Qichi care; she said to Gu Xingchuan, "Let’s go, we’re off to drink."
"Mhm." Gu Xingchuan chuckled lightly.
The affection within his smile...
To say that Gu Xingchuan felt nothing for Ye Qichi, he absolutely wouldn’t believe it.
He watched as the two ascended the building together.
"Young Master, your food is ready," a waiter approached respectfully.
"No need to eat," Wu Xufan rejected outright.
Eating now, when dishing the dirt was far more appetizing.
With that, he took his followers and left Jingshui Building, heading straight for Prince Chen’s Mansion. freёweɓnovel.com
Upon arriving at Prince Chen’s Mansion.
Xiao Jinxing was also having a meal.
Seeing Wu Xufan arrive, he showed no emotional fluctuation and continued to dine gracefully.
"Little Wu," Wu Xufan sat unceremoniously across Xiao Jinxing, "Bring me a set of chopsticks and a bowl."
"As you command," the servant replied.
Xiao Jinxing glanced at Wu Xufan and kept eating.
Wu Xufan just watched Xiao Jinxing, staring straight at him, "You can still eat?"
Xiao Jinxing ignored Wu Xufan.
"Ye Qichi is about to run off with someone."
Xiao Jinxing’s eyes tightened.
"Do you know who I bumped into at Jingshui Building today?" Wu Xufan intentionally asked.
"Speak!" Xiao Jinxing’s face visibly darkened.
Wu Xufan was not afraid of him either, his grin malicious, "I encountered Ye Qichi and a man together going to eat, do you know who the man was?!"
Xiao Jinxing looked coldly at Wu Xufan.
"Gu Xingchuan. The very Gu Xingchuan you’ve been wanting to win over!" Having finished speaking, Wu Xufan laughed with schadenfreude.
He was plainly mocking Xiao Jinxing for shooting himself in the foot!
"Their intimacy seemed even greater than yours with Ye Qichi."
"Little Wu!"
At this moment, Little Wu was preparing to bring over the bowl and chopsticks.
"I am here," Little Wu quickly replied with respect.
"Show the guest out," Xiao Jinxing commanded.
Little Wu was dumbfounded.
He turned to look at Young Master Wu Xufan.
Wu Xufan was somewhat speechless, "Xiao Jinxing, with such a bad temper, no wonder you’ll end up with no friends! Oh, right, you’ve never had any to begin with!"
Xiao Jinxing shot Little Wu a look.
Little Wu promptly set down the bowl and chopsticks, turned to Wu Xufan with respect, and said, "Please this way, Young Master."
Wu Xufan surely knew Little Wu’s skills were not to be messed with—defeating him would be no easy feat.
"Such a foul temper, no wonder Ye Qichi doesn’t like you! You don’t understand how refined, dashing, considerate, and thoughtful Gu Xingchuan is..." Wu Xufan grumbled on.
"Maybe you shouldn’t say any more, Young Master," Little Wu couldn’t help but feel anxious on behalf of the Young Master.
Wu Xufan dropped one last remark, "It serves you right to be dumped!"
And then he hurriedly scampered away.
Typically insolent, yet fearfully cowardly!
After Wu Xufan left.
Xiao Jinxing violently put down the chopsticks and bowl onto the dining table.
Little Wu was startled.
The Prince wouldn’t normally show his temper, but once he did, it was certainly no small matter!
