The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161: 112 Empress Dowager (first night watch)_3

No matter what, he couldn’t let any trouble happen in their house.

Gu Jiao grabbed him with both hands and took him to Gu Xiaoshun’s room.

The old lady hit him without mercy, a large bump rose on his head, and a bit of blood seeped out. Gu Jiao medicated him and wrapped it with a bandage.

Next, Gu Jiao took out a silver needle and pricked a few points on his acupoint.

The Duke of An slowly opened his eyes.

Though the Duke of An’s features were not extraordinarily delicate, there was an attractive air about him that would make anyone fall for him.

His eyes were very charming, only his gaze seemed somewhat amiss.

Gu Jiao looked at him curiously and waved in front of his eyes.

He didn’t react.

What’s the situation?

Is he blind?

At this time, it was dark outside and in the room was lit by a dim oil lamp.

Gu Jiao turned up the wick to make it brighter, but he still could not see.

Yet he did not panic, and did not exhibit any abnormality. He closed his eyes calmly: “My eyes hurt.”

Hiding the fact that he could not see was his first response upon waking up, rather than asking where he was or who she was.

What a strange man.

Since he had said so, Gu Jiao naturally wouldn’t expose him. After all, who could guarantee what the consequences would be if she did so.

The more you know, the quicker you die.

“Then keep your eyes closed. I’ll go find some herbs for you,” Gu Jiao said as she haphazardly applied some mint leaves wrapped in a piece of cloth onto his eyes.

“Jiaojiao!” A small voice peeked in from the door, “Has he woken up?”

It was a child’s voice.

The Duke of An began to guess Gu Jiao’s identity. If he wasn’t wrong, she should be the woman who had a conflict with his sister that day.

But wasn’t she the daughter of Duke Ding’an?

Xiaojingkong asked again, “Will he blame my aunt?” _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}
