The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 818

Chapter 818: 379 Domineering Heavens! (Second Update)_3

For instance, securing the services of that expert fighter would also grant one the right to use this room.

Gu Jiao thought of Gu Changqing and wondered which category he belonged to.

When Gu Jiao entered the room, the man inside was clad in brown brocade, wearing a mask made of jade.

The mask was pretty, no doubt, but it was too heavy, liable to fall off during a fight.

It seemed that this man wasn’t here to fight in the Martial Arts Arena, and it was highly likely that he had obtained this room by securing the services of an expert fighter.

"Young Hero Xiong, please take a seat," the man gestured politely toward the chair below his seat.

As soon as he spoke, Gu Jiao recognized who he was.

Unexpectedly, this underground martial arts tournament was filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers; not only did the Marquis Residence’s heir Gu Changqing come, but also the prince of Zhan Country, Qin Chuhan, was present.

Qin Chuhan was the Prince of Ning.

Gu Jiao recognized the Prince of Ning, but he had not yet recognized Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao took her seat without any change in her expression.

"Does Young Hero Xiong prefer wine or tea?" the Prince asked with politeness that did not detract from his noble air.

Gu Jiao took out her little notebook and wrote seriously, "I’m still young; I cannot drink wine."

The Prince was momentarily taken aback, his eyes seeming to say—You’re still young, but you can come to such a dangerous place and fight in a martial arts competition?

The Prince, after all, was used to seeing the world’s tumults. He was still capable of dealing with a child. He smiled and said, "Very well, bring the tea!"

A servant brought tea for Gu Jiao.

It wasn’t long before Gu Jiao recognized a problem—the mask did not have an opening for the mouth, meaning she would have to remove the mask to drink the tea.

Wait a second.

Was the Prince being polite or was he trying to coax her into removing the mask?

Gu Jiao wrote, "I don’t like this kind of tea."
