C83 (1/2)

Ever since Qu Jingxi came back, the Prince Jing's Mansion had become extremely busy.

Black Wolf lay on the bed with his eyes closed. Gu Xiao would check on his injuries from time to time.

All the necessary herbs had been prepared on the side. However, since the hot water needed to be boiled, it would still take a while.

”How is it?”

Amongst the busy servants, Feng Xiwu walked over to the bed anxiously. She was obviously asking Gu Xiao about it, although she had good medicinal herbs, she did not have much understanding towards medicine.

”Nothing big.”

Seeing Feng Xiwu's somewhat worried expression, Gu Xiao's pair of eyes peeked outside slightly. As expected, she saw Prince Jing's glacial face which had an unpleasant expression.

Gu Xiao laughed in his heart, then went a little closer to Feng Xiwu, shortening the distance between the two of them.

”However, Prince's Wife, your body is too tough. Even after receiving such heavy injuries, you are still able to bring me to find you guys. You are already quite strong.”

Thinking about the way Qu Jingxi was acting outside, the Prince Jing who had always been an indomitable person and always kept his word, the Prince Jing who liked to use violence to settle matters would one day change his way of doing things because of a woman.

Gu Xiao sighed. Sigh, I really am old now. It's good to be young.

Actually, Qu Jingxi also understood that Black Wolf was the Dark Guard who had protected her for so many years. It was unavoidable that she would be a little worried when this person was injured, but when he thought about the worry on Wu's face because of the other men, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

”Princess, Godly Doctor Gu is going to treat the patient with acupuncture, please leave for now.” The butler came in from outside and cupped his hands towards Feng Xiwu.

Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, ”Since that's the case, in order to take care of Jing's fragile soul, Prince's Wife will allow you to leave for a while.”

Feng Xiwu looked at Black Wolf's somewhat pale face. Her originally somewhat worried heart was immediately broken by Gu Xiao's words. Jing? Why did the two men call each other that?

After lightly nodding and walking out of the room, Feng Xiwu looked at the nearby Prince Jing, the expression in his eyes somewhat unnatural.

”Let's go back to the room first. Waiting outside is pretty tiring.” Qu Jingxi walked closer to her, and when his gaze touched the expression in his eyes, he felt that it was a little strange, but he did not give it much thought.

Feng Xiwu did not reject his suggestion this time. Since Gu Xiao had already said that there was nothing major, she did not need to worry about it. Since the sun was so high outside, she should follow Prince Jing back to her room first.

The servants outside were still busy as usual. Qu Jingxi poured two cups of tea and slowly savored it, looking very relaxed.

Feng Xiwu wanted to speak up a few times, but when her gaze came in contact with Qu Jingxi's seemingly perfect face, the words that were about to come out of her mouth were swallowed back down.

She needed some time to think it over.

”What's wrong? Is there anything else? ” Sensing that the little girl was wrong, Qu Jingxi asked. Although he was looking out, most of his eyes were still on her.

Towards Prince Jing who looked as if he was concerned about something, Feng Xiwu opened her mouth and asked gently, ”Your highness, what do you think about Godly Doctor Gu?”

Gu Xiao? The expression in Qu Jingxi's eyes changed as she looked at her. Wu, do you remember what This King said the first time you saw him? ”

Feng Xiwu nodded, ”The Prince has instructed me to stay away from that person, but …”

”But what?”

Feng Xiwu stopped to think, as she felt that something was amiss.

”Did His Highness want me to stay away from him because the Godly Doctor Gu is too unruly, or because the Godly Doctor Gu is his person?”

Qu Jingxi frowned.
