273 She Had Also Put in a Lot of Effort in Order to Test the Medicine With Him Alone
“Then, then I’ll go look for other things that I need,” said Dumby.
“Well, Xiaohua, take me to the village chief’s house first. I’ll check the terrain to prevent any mistakes at night,” said Gu Lin.
Thinking that she would be able to drive that annoying woman away after tonight, Zhou Xiaohua cooperated fully. The few children split up and went to complete their respective tasks.
Completely unaware of the children’s plans, Gu Qingxue waited until dinner was over before she went to boil water to bathe the four cubs.
Lingbao saw the opportunity and took the initiative to say, “Mother, I want to sleep with Uncle Nine tonight.”
Gu Lin and Dumby quickly followed, “So do we!”
When Rong Zhan, who was sitting at the dining table, heard this, he could not help but squint his eyes and look at Nine.
He could not figure out how he lost to Nine.
Nine naturally would not tell Rong Zhan the truth. He raised his hand and picked up Lingbao. “Miss Gu, it’s rare for children to stick to me. Why don’t we just do as they say?”
After Lingbao was held in Nine’s arms, she seemed to have noticed that the Uncle Fairy had been looking at her.
Lingbao looked away guiltily, not daring to look at Rong Zhan. She buried her small face in Nine’s neck and apologized silently in her heart.
‘I’m sorry, Uncle Fairy. In order to drive away the ugly monster who likes you, I had no choice but to betray you temporarily and choose Uncle Nine!’
The action of Lingbao turning her back and lying on Nine made Rong Zhan’s face turn even colder.
“Where’s Lil’ Han? Do you want to sleep with me? I can tell you the story of Journey to the West.” Gu Qingxue could not help but feel a little lonely when she thought of having no little children by her side tonight, so she warmly invited Rong Han.
Rong Han was so moved that she almost agreed.
“No, thank you, fairy.” Rong Han resisted the reluctance in his heart and looked at Rong Zhan as if he was going to choose him.
Just when everyone thought that Rong Han would still choose Rong Zhan, Rong Han betrayed him without any hesitation, “Father, I’ll let you go back early. I want to sleep with Uncle Nine.”
Rong Zhan’s expression which had eased up a little earlier became even uglier.
When Gu Qingxue saw that the aura around Rong Zhan was as cold as an ice cellar, she could not help but feel sympathetic toward Rong Zhan.
She understood Rong Zhan very well.
After all, it was very uncomfortable to be ‘abandoned’ by one’s children.
“Your Royal Highness, it just so happens that I’ve concocted a new medicine. Since Lil’ Lin and the others aren’t around, let’s wait until midnight tonight to try the new medicine together, shall we?” Gu Qingxue took the initiative to suggest.
Gu Qingxue had just finished speaking when she could clearly feel Rong Zhan’s mood turning from gloomy to sunny.
Seeing Rong Zhan grunt without even thinking, Gu Qingxue immediately understood.
She did not expect the prince to be so eager to consume the new antidote!
After realizing this, Gu Qingxue decided that if the antidote this time did not work, she would seize the time to concoct more different antidotes. This way, if the prince was in a bad mood one day, she could take out a new antidote to make the prince happy!
After all, Rong Zhan was her big client, so she had to take his mood into consideration.
When Rong Zhan saw the joy on Gu Qingxue’s face, he withdrew his gaze with great satisfaction.
He had been wondering why all four children would choose Ah Jiu.
It was not until he heard what Gu Qingxue had said that he finally understood that everything had been arranged by Gu Qingxue.
She had put in a lot of effort to test the medicine alone with him, so how could he bear to expose her cleverness?
Nine held Lingbao in his arms and could not help but frown. He kept feeling that the development of things was somewhat different from what he had imagined.
Holding Lingbao in his arms, Nine had no way of turning back. He could only bring the four children back to the house next door.
