Chapter 212: 131 Bullying (Second Update)_2
The secret guards assigned to him by Old Master Marquis had been dispatched elsewhere and were not with him.
If it weren’t for this, Gu Changqing would have figured out his identity through Old Master Marquis’s secret guards last time.
Gu Chenglin and his party had long since left, and it was as if no one had ever been here.
Despairing, Gu Yan let out a whining sound.
Pity, nobody could hear him.
Gu Xiaoshun grew frantic, “Where on earth has Gu Yan gone? Gu Yan! Gu Yan!”
Gu Yan heard Gu Xiaoshun’s calls, but despite his struggles, he could not make him hear.
Gu Xiaoshun’s voice grew distant.
Desperate, Gu Yan writhed on the ground, trying to move towards the door, but his heart suddenly began to throb with unbearable pain!
His heart condition was acting up!
He had the medicine given by his sister, however…
He couldn’t reach it.
Gu Jiao sat in the carriage, suddenly feeling a severe pain in her heart.
“Please hurry!” she urged the coachman.
“Right away!” The coachman drove as fast as he could, but the last thing Gu Jiao wanted to happen occurred.
“Clear the way for the Princess Consort!”
The guards with “make way” signs filled the entire street, completely blocking the path of the carriage!
Gu Yan felt as if he was on the verge of death.
Lying on his side on the ground, his hands and feet bound, he was exhausted from struggling and looked fearfully into the unknown darkness, choking, “Sister, it hurts.”
On the way back to the classroom, one of Gu Chenglin’s friends asked, “Master Gu the third, won’t that kid be in any danger?”
Gu Chenglin dismissed the idea, “What could happen? Didn’t you see him bouncing around? He’s just being locked up for a few hours, teach him a lesson! See if he dares to glare at me again next time!”
“True that!” The group laughed heartily as they walked back to the class with Gu Chenglin.
Gu Yan’s breath grew fainter and fainter.
He couldn’t even feel the pain anymore.
He knew he couldn’t fall asleep, or he might never wake up again.
But he was just too tired.
He couldn’t hold on any longer.
Clang——
Just as he was losing consciousness, the door was kicked open.
Blinding light flooded in.
Gu Yan opened his eyes to see a tall, formidable man standing before him against the light, appearing godlike.
Gu Changqing tore the ropes binding his hands and feet with his bare hands, bent down to pick him up, and hurriedly walked outside.
Gu Yan leaned out against him, his consciousness fading. He grabbed the man’s collar, as if clutching a lifesaving straw.
He opened his mouth.
Gu Changqing leaned down, “What?”
Gu Yan, weakly, “Medicine…”
Gu Changqing set Gu Yan down and began searching his person for the medicine. In a moment, he found a small porcelain bottle, poured out two pills, and fed them to Gu Yan.
Gu Changqing took a water bag from the saddle and had Gu Yan drink some water.
Color returned to Gu Yan’s face and the pain in his heart eased a bit. However, he was still very weak and couldn’t even speak.
Gu Yan recognized him, reached up to grab his clothes, his weak and frail fingers barely making a grip, reminiscent of a weak and wronged cat.
Gu Changqing sighed helplessly, “I’ll take you home first.”
He happened to pass by and heard a faint whimpering sound. At first, he thought it was a cat, but then he felt something was off and hopped over the wall to check outside the firewood room.
As a martial artist, he had excellent hearing which an ordinary person wouldn’t possess, and he could hear Gu Yan’s faint movements.
Gu Yan was once again on Gu Changqing’s horse. Last time he had had the strength to keep his distance, but now he was completely drained. Like a snail without a shell, he leaned limply against his chest.
Again, Gu Yan found his chest to be firm!
