Chapter 162 - 113: Recognition (Second Update)



The old woman stubbornly retorted: “I only had three pieces!”

Gu Jiao pointed at the jar: “But clearly there are six pieces missing.”

“He ate them!” The old lady abruptly accused Gu Xiaoshun.

Gu Xiaoshun, who was chopping firewood, appeared totally dumbfounded. What happened? Did he eat something he wasn’t supposed to?

Gu Jiao heartlessly confiscated the old woman’s candied fruit, and also uncovered the stash she had been hoarding in her room for some time.

The old lady’s face turned green.

The Prince of An County, upon hearing the familiar voice, felt his heart tighten over and over.

… Is it the Dowager?

Unfortunately, he couldn’t see anything right now.

However, that’s okay. Soon as the day dawns, his sight will return.

Gu Jiao, having finished confiscating the old woman’s candied fruit, turned around to see the Prince of An County stumbling out blindly, standing in the doorway, looking in her direction.

What exactly is he looking at? He can’t see anything.

Gu Jiao walked over and spoke indifferently: “Prince of An, where do you live? I’ll arrange for someone to take you home later.”

Gu Yan’s bodyguard was lurking nearby; they could take care of it.

The Prince of An had already decided to stay. He quietly said, “I feel a little dizzy. May I stay at Miss Gu’s house for the night?”

Gu Jiao squinted suspiciously. Was this guy trying to scam her?

“We have no extra rooms in my house.”

The Prince of An was about to reply “that’s fine, I can squeeze in with others”, but before he could, he was interrupted by a familiar voice.

“Prince of An?”

The visitor was none other than Marquis Gu, who she had not seen for several days.

Marquis Gu came to find Gu Jiao. He had thought over the previous incident where he had overstepped his bounds regarding Miss Zhuang, and it indeed deserved a slap. But what exactly had Jin Yu done to deserve a slap by being lumped together with her?

He had hesitated for many days, eventually deciding to go to her village to reassure her about bullying Jin Yu!

No matter whether she returned to the Marquis Residence or not, she should not vent her anger on Jin Yu because she didn’t like her!

The gate was wide open, so he walked straight in.

However, just after passing through the living room, he saw the Prince of An, who had disappeared for the whole day. Wasn’t he said to be out wandering in the town? Wasn’t he supposed to be buying osmanthus cake for Miss Zhuang from Liji?

Why did he appear at his daughter’s house?

Could he also be here to hold her accountable?

Marquis Gu dashed up in three steps, and found that the Prince of An seemed to be injured, with gauze wrapped around his head and his eyes covered as well.

A dreadful thought flashed through his mind: Did… did that lass beat up the Prince of An as well?

Heavens, what kind of little devil had he birthed?

Marquis Gu paid his respects, almost bending his waist in half: “Your Highness… my daughter is, uh, unbridled. Please forgive her!”

The Prince of An looked at him puzzled: “Marquis, you don’t seriously think that the injury was caused by your daughter, do you?”

“Huh?” Marquis Gu was taken aback. Wasn’t it?

The Prince of An lightly tugged at the corner of his mouth: “It was my own carelessness… and thank your daughter for treating me.”

“Huh?” Marquis Gu was dumbfounded.

The Prince of An tentatively said: “I didn’t expect your daughter to be so well versed in the techniques of the Huangdi’s Canon of Medicine.”

Marquis Gu was dumbfounded and replied awkwardly: “Prince of An, you overpraise her. She worked as a medicine boy in the town’s medical hall for a few days, she knows just a little about the superficial things! In my opinion, you should hurry back to the villa and let the royal doctors there examine you thoroughly!”

Marquis Gu said this mainly because he was indeed worried about the Prince of An’s injuries; secondly, he assumed he was here to hold Gu Jiao accountable.

Even though he didn’t fancy Gu Jiao, she was still his and the Yao family’s flesh and blood, so he couldn’t just let her be held accountable by the Prince of An.

He needed to hurry the Prince of An away.

The Prince of An intended to repeat his previous trick, insisting that he felt dizzy and couldn’t face a long journey. Marquis Gu said he had the best carriage, ensuring he would not feel the slightest bump!

Marquis Gu was too determined, so the Prince of An finally couldn’t persuade him and resentfully got onto the carriage heading back to the villa.

Marquis Gu let out a long sigh of relief!

However, the Prince of An was somewhat suspicious.

Why was Marquis Gu so determined to take him back to the villa? Was he worried that he might discover something at his daughter’s place?

Why would his daughter choose to live in the countryside? Could it be to hide the Dowager?

Marquis Gu was not aware that his hasty actions had led the Prince of An to speculate so much. When he got back to the villa, in order to pacify the Prince of An’s anger, he presented many valuable antiques, inflicting a lot of pain to his own wealth!
