The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 178 - 91 Trip to Yuzhou (12) Xiao Jinxing Falls Ill_3

Chapter 178: Chapter 91 Trip to Yuzhou (12) Xiao Jinxing Falls Ill_3

"But that servant wasn’t infected!" Xiao Wu still didn’t understand.

When they left just now, that servant was completely fine, showing no signs of anything unusual.

"Plague is dynamic, and it manifests differently in each person. Some may be infected but show no symptoms, which is the most dangerous since they won’t take precautions. Therefore, Chen Hezhi’s method of isolating the plague, albeit cruel, is actually very effective. He isolates everyone who comes into contact, which is the most effective way to control the spread of the plague!" Ye Qichi spoke, then quickly returned to the main point, "The only possibility for Xiao Jinxing to get infected is through that servant. Xiao Wu!"

Xiao Wu was noticeably anxious.

"Now go back to the Pang Mansion and inform Pang Nan about Xiao Jinxing’s illness, and tell him to isolate the servant immediately. Everyone else should also isolate themselves and start taking the medicine according to my prescription as a precaution," Ye Qichi instructed, "Besides, Xiao Jinxing definitely needs treatment for his illness. Remember to bring enough medicine back, and the quicker, the better!"

"There’s nothing here, it’s so simple. Should the Prince and Princess return to the Pang Mansion? Since Chen Hezhi has searched it, the Pang Mansion should be safe."

"It won’t be safe," Xiao Jinxing interjected.

He could also feel a strong discomfort in his body at this moment.

Actually, he had felt something was wrong since leaving the Pang Mansion, but he kept silent in order not to delay the journey.

Unexpectedly, he really had caught the plague.

"The one who had Chen Hezhi search the Pang Mansion for me was Xiao Jinsen. Since Xiao Jinsen has now predicted that I might have entered Yuzhou City and might be trying to win over Pang Nan, he will definitely have people continuously watch Pang Nan next. If we return now, it would be like walking into a trap," Xiao Jinxing explained clearly.

"Moreover, with Xiao Jinxing sick, we definitely cannot go back. The person with the illness should be the one to isolate themselves," Ye Qichi added.

Seeing the Prince and Princess agree, Xiao Wu naturally did not dare to object, and quickly got up to leave.

After he left, Ye Qichi’s attention returned to Xiao Jinxing.

She asked, "Does it hurt?"

Xiao Jinxing didn’t reply.

His silence, of course, meant it was painful.

Unable to resist, Ye Qichi chuckled, "Xiao Jinxing, how can you be so unlucky?!"

Xiao Jinxing’s complexion was somewhat grim.

"But luckily, you have me," Ye Qichi said, "Otherwise, I don’t know how many times you would have died by now."

At this moment, Xiao Jinxing unusually did not retort.

Indeed... there was nothing to retort.

"I reckon all the bad luck in your life was just so you could luckily meet me!" Ye Qichi muttered, "I guess I’m the only one who truly cares for you, wholeheartedly and without regret, and asks nothing in return!"

Ye Qichi was telling the truth.

Having entered the story through a book, Xiao Jinxing indeed enjoyed many conveniences.

Because of Xiao Jinxing’s protagonist’s aura, she naturally stood unconditionally on his side - even though he thought about killing her every day, she never held it against him, after all, that was the plot setting.

And she really wanted nothing from Xiao Jinxing - at least, nothing that would affect any of his interests.

Even better than Bai Mowan was to him.

In the original story, Bai Mowan actually got a lot more, it was always Xiao Jinxing who was giving, while Bai Mowan was just receiving.

Suddenly, Ye Qichi was moved by herself.

"The greatest misfortune is meeting you," Xiao Jinxing uttered word by word.

Ye Qichi rolled her eyes.

This man, Xiao Jinxing, would he ever understand what gratitude is in his life?!

No, it’s not that he doesn’t understand.

It’s just that his gratitude is only directed towards Bai Mowan.

Ye Qichi actually didn’t mind.

She could understand every time Xiao Jinxing treated her with disdain.

After all, in a melodramatic romance novel, who else could the male lead have room for in his eyes besides the female lead?!

Indifferently, she said, "Yes, yes, yes, your greatest fortune is meeting Bai Mowan. I wish you two lovebirds a happy union soon!"

A heartfelt blessing.

But Xiao Jinxing didn’t believe it.

He looked at Ye Qichi, at how well she pretended, and felt somewhat suppressed inside.

Yes.

Ye Qichi was right.

His greatest fortune was indeed meeting Bai Mowan, who brought a ray of moonlight into his once grim life.

He thought she was his only moonlight.

Yet now, he had met Ye Qichi...

Ye Qichi was his greatest misfortune, making him, who had never wavered in his emotions, start to feel conflicted and entangled because of her.
