82 He is your benefactor (1/2)
Gao Manor
At her parents' study, Gao Lan Mei sitting in front of Gao Qi, silently listening to him, narrate, or, blurting better yet ranting about Wei Jiayi's help at the time of the accident.
All words spoken was so stressed, emphasizing the importance or just to get her attention.
He probably notices how her mind drifted off to somewhere, instead of hearing and understanding what he is trying to say.
Next to Gao Lan Mei is her mother. The woman was on house arrest last night due to the assassin attack and was not even allowed by her husband to go out and check on her daughter.
Because of this, Madam Gao is also blatantly ignoring the Minister and just softly stroking her daughter's hand that is bandaged by the medical strip.
”I repeat, he is your benefactor. Without him providing the blood replenishing pill, I hate to think what would have happened to you.” Gao Qi sincerely wants his daughter to treat the prince with more respect, though both women in front of him are not really taking what he is saying to heart.
Whatever their current differences, she must never forget the favor the Gao family owes him.
”I will do my best father.” Gao Lan Mei answered at last. No need to talk about it, really. She will just need to avoid the prince to not 'accidentally' disrespect him.
Do not get her wrong, she appreciates the things that the Prince did so far. Being acquainted with him will bring a lot of benefits.
Aside from the fact that most do not know is that he owns the Medical Pavilion, which has multiple branches across the whole mortal domain.
Wei Jiayi is also the most powerful she has known so far in the domain. The man is so easy to blackmail as well, due to his fascination with the bird species like her. Still, he is dangerous and unpredictable.
