The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story - Chapter 45
45 Prince
“Meow!” Qing Guang’s attention was instantly attracted. Its cat eyes instantly widened and it flew up to slap the box with its claws and grab a round golden pearl from it. Its series of actions were so fast that it was impossible to hide.
Its claw even knocked down the wooden box. In an instant, most of the jewelry in the box was poured out.
Gu Yanfei was speechless.
Chu Yi put his fist to his lips and chuckled softly.
!!
Qing Guang completely ignored the accident it had created and focused on chasing after the golden bead.
Its nimble little claws slapped the golden beads around.
Gu Yanfei glared at the stupid cat silently.
Chu Yi closed the casket and accepted the portion that the kitten had “distributed” to him.
Chu Yi took the box and got out of the carriage. He casually shoved the box to Xiao Shi.
“It’s time to meet Prince Jing.”
Chu Yi said this lightly and walked southeast with the autumn wind blowing in his face.
The back of the young master in white was thin and vigorous, like green bamboo in the snow, full of spirit and elegance.
Xiao Shi carried the box and walked briskly behind Chu Yi, wrinkling his nose.
Prince Jing was Kang Wang’s cousin. Ever since the previous Emperor was alive, he had always been close to Kang Wang. In the eight years that Chu Yi had left the capital, the entire court, including Prince Jing, was not familiar with him. Most of them wanted to wait and see what would happen.
In fact, Chu Yi had not been invited today. He had come to Prince Jing’s Manor on his own accord to test Prince Jing’s attitude, but he had been given the cold shoulder. After Prince Jing had asked someone to bring them to the Moonlight Tower, he had used an excuse so as to not appear.
When Chu Yi left the Moonlight Tower just now, Xiao Shi thought that they were going back to the palace. He did not expect his master to specially come to see Gu Yanfei.
Yes, his master had always had his reasons for doing things. He was not someone who would go with the flow and be controlled by others. Prince Jing had really miscalculated!
Xiao Shi grinned and quickly followed Chu Yi. The master and servant passed through a moon gate one after another.
Behind the moon gate was a wild profusion of vegetation that erased all traces of autumn. A hearty laughter came with the wind.
“Hey, hey, hey, let me make this clear first. No one is allowed to fight with me!” Not far ahead, Li Zhulang shouted at the top of his lungs.
Li Zhulang and the other six or seven young masters walked over with smiles.
“That won’t do!” Another rough-voiced young master objected with a chuckle. “A fair lady is a gentleman’s dream. Why should we give in to you?”
“Exactly, exactly!”
“Let’s play fair!”
“…”
The young masters talked at once, and it was extremely lively.
Suddenly, three or four sparrows flew past with their wings close to each other. They cried and flapped their wings, throwing down a pile of bird poop.
The pile of bird poop happened to fall on Li Zhulang’s crown, who subconsciously wiped it away. When he saw the smelly bird poop on his fingers, his face darkened.
The five or six young masters beside him all saw this scene.
In an instant, time seemed to have stopped. Everyone stood rooted to the ground, their voices suddenly disappearing.
“Pfft!” A young man pointed at Li Zhulang and laughed until his back was bent. “So Second Miss Gu was telling you to be careful of ‘bird poop’.”
“Yes! Second Miss Gu is really accurate.” Another young master smiled and knocked his palm with the handle of the fan.
“Brother Li, bird poop falling from the top of your head is a sign of bad luck. Do you want to go to the temple to pray and get rid of your bad luck?”
“…”
A few young masters teased Li Zhulang.
Chu Yi heard it too and naturally knew who they were talking about. He casually glanced at them, a faint smile flashing in his phoenix eyes.
Dressed in snow-white clothes, Chu Yi was graceful and elegant. Every move he made had a transcendent cold charm, forming a sharp contrast with the group of young masters in luxurious clothes.
As they passed each other, Li Zhulang couldn’t help but glance at Chu Yi. He met a pair of dark and bright phoenix eyes.
The other party had clearly not done anything, but Li Zhulang felt a gentle and invisible pressure.
He was… Li Zhulang stared at Chu Yi and froze.
Chu Yi nodded slightly at Li Zhulang and continued walking without stopping. Xiao Shi followed behind him.
When the other young masters saw that Li Zhulang had fallen behind, they turned around and called out to him.
Li Zhulang turned to them in a daze and said in a daze, “It’s, it’s the Eldest Prince!” Why was the Eldest Prince here?!
The Eldest Prince, Chu Yi, was only 10 years old when he left the capital. He had only returned to the capital after eight years and had yet to attend the imperial court. Therefore, most people did not know what he looked like.
“That person just now is the Eldest Prince?”
“Isn’t the Eldest Prince ill and recuperating recently?”
The others stared in surprise or curiosity, craning to see, but Chu Yi had long since disappeared around the corner.
A few feet away, two sparrows spread their wings and flew across the sky one after another. They chirped as they flew out of the mansion and brushed past a flat-roofed horse carriage outside the mansion.
The carriage was quiet, making the sound of wheels and hooves outside especially clear.
Gu Yunzhen did not see Gu Yunrong in the end, so she could only leave another carriage in the Marquis Mansion. She and Gu Yanfei returned to the Marquis Mansion first.
Feeling extremely troubled, Gu Yunzhen rubbed and twisted a handkerchief.
Qing Guang, who had been playing for a while, was tired again. It curled up into a round and soft ball of fur beside Gu Yanfei.
After half an hour, their carriage arrived at the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.
Gu Yunzhen was the first to get out of the carriage. Her first words were to ask the old housekeeper at the door, “Is the Third Lady back?”
“No.” The old housekeeper shook her head.
“…” Gu Yunzhen frowned tightly, feeling even more worried.
The two sisters said goodbye at the entrance. Gu Yunzhen went to the Benevolent Harmony Hall while Gu Yanfei carried the cat back to Yuheng Garden.
However, Gu Yanfei had just changed into a lotus-colored gown and had yet to take a sip of water when the head maidservant of the Benevolent Harmony Hall, Bai Lu, arrived. She said that Madam Gu had invited her over.
So she went over.
She was greeted by an oncoming porcelain cup, which was thrown at her head.
“Evil creature!” Madam Gu scolded with a dark expression. Her usual graceful bearing was no longer present.
The porcelain cup flew extremely quickly, but Gu Yanfei only tilted her body slightly and easily dodged it.
The cup brushed past her and smashed into the wall behind her, shattering into pieces. It was obvious that Madam Gu had used a lot of strength.
Seeing that Gu Yanfei actually dared to dodge, Madam Gu was even angrier. Her turbid eyes were filled with monstrous anger. She grabbed the lid of the tea again and wanted to throw it…
Gu Yunzhen quickly stood in front of Gu Yanfei and advised, “Grandma, please calm down.”
Gu Yanfei’s expression changed slightly. Her sharp eyes noticed that there was a thin trail of blood hidden under Gu Yunzhen’s neat and thick bangs.
Looking at the tea stains and broken porcelain pieces on the ground in front of Madam Gu’s bed, Gu Yanfei immediately understood what was going on.
Before she arrived, Madam Gu had probably already smashed a cup. The flying porcelain shards had cut Gu Yunzhen’s forehead.
This grandmother of hers really liked to smash things!
