Chapter 306: 167 Rescue (First Update) _3
The Prime Minister's Darling
No, if she can guess that he didnât leave the storeroom, how stupid can her brain be?
Feishuang hesitated, âMy injuryâ¦was it also treated by herâ¦?â
The second Dongjia scoffed, âGive me a break! You are not worthy for our little Gu to treat your injury! It was Doctor Song who treated you! He stitched your wound too!â
Gu Jiao had greatly encouraged Doctor Song to do his first stitching procedure. Anyway, the patient was unconscious, so he could do as he pleased.
Unfortunately, Doctor Song made a mistake with the stitching for his first attempt, and ended up unfastening it swiftly before stitching it all over again.
The stitching was fairly ugly.
Cough, these details were not revealed to the patient by the second Dongjia.
The second Dongjia waved his hand and walked over to pass him the medicine, âAlright, stop thinking about it. Iâve already asked Gu for you early on.â
Feishuang held the medicine dumbfounded: âAskedâ¦what?â
The second Dongjia replied, âI asked her why she saved you? Does she know you or is she interested in you?â
Feishuang choked: âWhat nonsense are you talking about?â
The second Dongjia warned him, âYou know pretty well that I am talking nonsense. Iâm warning you, donât harbour any ill thoughts towards my little Gu just because she saved you. She is someone you canât afford to offend!â
Feishuang sneered, he would never stoop to curry favor from that girl in his lifetime!
Feishuang, with a cold stare, faced the second Dongjia: âWhy did she save me after all?â
The second Dongjia said after recalling, âWhen I asked her why she saved you, she glanced at you and said two words.â
Feishuang, âWhat?â
Second Dongjia, âScapegoat.â
Feishuang, ââ¦â
The sky gradually darkened, and the lanterns at the Marquis Residence were successively lit up.
Gu Chenglin was sitting underneath the veranda, restlessly looking towards the entrance.
The little servant beside him persuaded, âThird Young Master, the wind outside is strong. Please come inside!â
Gu Chenglin stubbornly retorted, âNo, Iâm waiting for my second brother!â
The little servant sighed, âSlave will wait, you go in and sit. When master returns, the slave will immediately inform you!â
Gu Chenglin was unhappy, he was the tiny hegemon of the Marquis Residence. Apart from the old Marquis and the crown prince Gu Changqing, no one else could really control him.
With no other options, the servant went to fetch a cloak for his master to drape over.
âYou go and check the entrance quickly, has my second brother returned or not?â Gu Chenglin urged.
âYes, yesyesyes, this servant is going right away!â The servant shook his head. He didnât know how many times he had run to the Marquis Residenceâs gate.
What could he do?@@novelbin@@
He was also rather desperate!
Luckily, this time the servant did not run in vain. As soon as he left the courtyard, he saw the second young master, Gu Chengfeng. He enthusiastically paid his respects and said: âSecond Young Master, youâre finally back. Third young master has been waiting for you all afternoon!â
âI see,â Chengfeng replied deeply and walked into the courtyard.
The servant scratched his head, was the second young master not in a good mood today? Why was he wearing such a cold expression?
âSecond Brother!â Gu Chenglin finally saw Gu Chengfeng and stood up happily from his wheelchair.
Although there were three brothers in the Marquis Residence, Gu Chenglin got along the best with his second brother Gu Chengfeng. Firstly, they were of similar age. Secondly, they had always lived together. Last but not least, Changqing was too strict and Chenglin was a little afraid of him.
âWhy are you sitting here in the cold?â Gu Chengfeng frowned slightly.
âIsnât it because Iâm still waiting for you?â Gu Chenglin pouted, âWhere have you been all day? You disappeared as soon as vacation started, did you sneak out to play? And you didnât even take me with you!â
âI had something to do.â Gu Chengfeng casually replied.
âWhat was it?â Gu Chenglin asked in earnest.
Gu Chengfeng opened his mouth, wondering how to get around the question, when he heard Gu Chenglin exclaim, âSecond Brother! Why is your head so dirty?! Ah! And your clothes! Your collar is all dirty! Where on earth have you been? Did you get into a fight?â
Gu Chengfengâs overcoat wasnât dirty, after all, he had changed it. However, he had left his undergarment and middle garment at home and hadnât had time to change them.Upd@te by novg0 .co
Who would have thought that his little brother, who was good at nothing except having sharp eyes, noticed it first.
âNo,â Chengfeng denied it and pushed open the door to enter the room.
Gu Chenglin wanted to follow him in, but Chengfeng blocked the entrance: âIâm changing my clothes.â
âGo ahead and change!â Gu Chenglin said.
Gu Chengfeng frowned: âWait for me outside.â
Gu Chenglin looked at him curiously. Whatâs the big deal? He wasnât allowed to enter the room just because he was changing his clothes?
Gu Chengfeng was always quite patient with his little brother. However, today he was in a mess and injured, and really didnât have the energy to argue with him.
He closed the door and bolted it.
Gu Chenglin was stunned: âWhatâs going on? Why has he bolted the door?â
After Chengfeng entered the room, he couldnât hold on any longer. One hand steadying himself on the table while the other clutched at his chest.
The effect of the anaesthetic had worn off and there was a sharp pain in his abdomen.
Who was the quack that stitched him up? Why did it hurt so much?!
âHiss-â
He inhaled sharply.
âSecond Brother, are you done yet? Our grandmother is still waiting for us to have dinner!â Gu Chenglin urged from outside the door.
Suppressing the sharp pain, Gu Chengfeng removed his blood-stained clothes, and said in his usual tone, âAlmost, donât rush me.â
Suddenly, Gu Chenglin exclaimed, âEh? Eldest Brother!â
Gu Chengfengâs hand trembled.
