Qi Haifeng raised his eyebrows and understood Madam Pan’s meaning, the smile on his face becoming more and more brilliant. “As expected, you’re the most resourceful. Someone, go and inform second brother. Tell him that father’s condition has greatly improved and have second brother return to the residence as soon as possible. There can’t be any delay.”
After hearing this, the subordinates quickly retreated and went to do the work according to the instructions.
That night, in the hall.
Gu Qingxue’s expression was worried. Her gaze was fixed straight ahead, and she looked like she had something on her mind.
“Qingxue, it’s already so late. Why don’t you go back and rest?” Rong Zhan strode into the room, his gaze landing on Gu Qingxue.
When Gu Qingxue saw Rong Zhan, the glow in her eyes softened, and there was a worry that could not be dispelled. “I’m just thinking that since we’ve been out for so long, the children must miss us a lot at home.”
Although she said that, Gu Qingxue was well aware that she couldn’t let go of the little ones. She could not wait to go back immediately and reunite with them.
“There’s no need to think so much. We’re going to find the Gu King tomorrow, so it’s better to conserve our energy today. My subordinates have already arranged a place for you to stay. I’ll send you there.” Rong Zhan stood up as he spoke.
Gu Qingxue looked at Rong Zhan’s actions in confusion. Just as she was about to ask him how he was going to send her back, the man in front of her picked her up in his arms.
Without any warning, Gu Qingxue subconsciously reached out and wrapped her arms around Rong Zhan’s neck. He then carried her out of the room and headed straight for her residence.
Gu Qingxue’s face instantly turned red, and she began to struggle with her legs. “Your Royal Highness, quickly put me down!”
Looking at Gu Qingxue’s blushing face, Rong Zhan did not let her go. Instead, he hugged her even more tightly, not giving her any chance to break free. “Don’t move, or you might fall down.”
As he said that, Rong Zhan did not forget to pretend to let go on purpose.
As expected, Gu Qingxue immediately tensed up and wrapped her tender arms around Rong Zhan’s neck. Then, she heard the evil-hearted man chuckling.
Gu Qingxue’s face turned even redder. She realized that she had been played by the man in front of her, but she could not fight back. She could only glare at him.
Rong Zhan brought Gu Qingxue to her room and placed her gently on the bed. She watched as Rong Zhan put her down and sat by her bed.
Gu Qingxue’s heart tensed up. She blinked and looked at the man in front of her in confusion. She asked, “Your Royal Highness, it’s already this hour. You should be leaving.”
Rong Zhan did not seem to understand. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “Didn’t you not want to rest just now? From this, it can be seen that it’s still early for you, but why do you have to keep me away?”
Gu Qingxue was rendered speechless by the man in front of her. She looked at the man who was smiling and suddenly felt like she had shot herself in the foot. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead and she argued, “I’m not. I just feel that Your Royal Highness’s actions are a little inappropriate.”
Rong Zhan raised his eyebrows and asked, “Oh? What’s wrong with it?”
