The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1479

Chapter 1479: 723 Sister complex (first update)

It was no problem for Gu Chengfeng to use his lightfoot skills to shake off the two experts from Han Ye’s group. By now, Gu Chengfeng and Xiao Hen should have already met up with the people from the National Master Hall carrying the first aid kit.

Gu Changqing continued carrying Gu Jiao forward.

"My carriage is just ahead, once we pass through this forest, we’ll arrive, and there are a few people from the Martial Arts Arena accompanying us."

He made the situation clear to Gu Jiao in advance, so she wouldn’t be surprised to find strangers with them when they arrived.

If Gu Jiao didn’t like traveling with the people from the Martial Arts Arena, he would send them ahead and leave the carriage for them.

"All right," Gu Jiao didn’t mind.

Thinking of something, Gu Changqing asked, "By the way, who were those two people just now? I recognize Qun Xuan, but who’s the other?"

Gu Jiao said, "The heir of the Han Family, Han Ye."

Gu Changqing mused, "The Crown Prince’s maternal family?"

Gu Jiao hummed an acknowledgment, wrapped her arms around his neck, and looked at him curiously, "You know about this too?"

Gu Changqing slightly tilted his head toward her with some affection, his tone a bit lighter, "I’ve been hearing some news about Shengdu in the Martial Arts Arena."

After a pause, he continued asking, "Why does he want to kill you?"

Gu Jiao replied, "The former Princess was injured, and the king asked me to save her, but he didn’t want me to go. Additionally, there are other grudges between me and the Han Family."

Gu Changqing’s brows furrowed, "Other grudges?"

"It’s a long story," Gu Jiao, who preferred to act rather than talk, replied succinctly, getting straight to the point.

Gu Changqing fell silent after hearing her response.

He had never expected that Gu Chengfeng would come too, especially in such a manner.

Even when he had noticed his younger brother’s growth during the battles at the border pass, he had never imagined it to be such significant progress.

In fact, he didn’t need Gu Chengfeng to be so resilient; not just him, even their grandfather had never put much pressure on Gu Chengfeng. Being a carefree and happy gentleman of a prominent family for life was sufficient for the second son.

Without any external force compelling him, he took the burden upon his own shoulders.

They were all growing constantly, to protect the people they cared about.

There were too many shocking things to process, aside from Gu Chengfeng’s experiences as a servant at the Han Family, there was also the enmity between Gu Jiao, Han Che, and Han Ye, as well as Xiao Hen’s entanglement with the Dayan royal family.

Who would dare come within three feet of Lord King Yama without being beaten to a pulp? _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}
