The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 823

Chapter 823: 381 Real Married Couple (Second Update)_2

The Crown Princess Consort spoke earnestly, "Youngsters from Jianghu inevitably harbor a sense of adventurous spirit, and their youthful recklessness is probably hard to avoid, Your Highness. Just make sure to treat others with courtesy and not let incidents like that with Bi Nu happen again."

At the mention of this, a hint of discomfort flashed across the Prince’s eyes.

Bi Nu was a powerful martial artist from the Turkic tribes, with immense strength and swift moves, ranked thirty-ninth among the experts. The Crown Princess Consort had instructed the Prince to try and win him over, but the man ended up berating the Prince with arrogant words, and the Prince had him whipped for his insolence.

This incident occurred outside the Martial Arts Arena, and although the arena itself did not interfere, the Turkic martial artist spread the word, causing several experts who disapproved of the Prince’s actions to sever ties with them.

The Prince cleared his throat and said, "Rest assured, I will definitely not use my status to oppress others this time. I will speak to him calmly and amicably."

Gu Jiao was still unaware that she had once again attracted attention.

It was still early, not yet time for Xiao Jingkong to get out of school. She left the Embroidery Building and headed back to the Medical Hall for a while.

She entered through the back door, unseen by others.

She ventured into her own Courtyard, took off her mask, freshened up, and changed into her usual attire.

Just as she finished, a clamor arose from outside the Courtyard.

"Why did you bump into me!"

It was a young girl’s voice.

"Who bumped into you! It was clearly you who bumped into me!"

...It was a man’s voice, somewhat familiar, like... Gu Chengfeng’s.

"Bumblebee!"

"Cylinder!"

Indeed, in the Backyard of the Medical Hall, Gu Chengfeng, who had come to buy Hair Growth Potion for his brother, encountered Yuan Tong, who had accompanied her sister to seek medical advice.

Their encounter was like a needle against wheat awn.

Yuan Tong glared, her eyes round with anger, "You did it on purpose! To think a grown man like you could be so petty! You bully women!"

Gu Chengfeng, bristling, lifted his right foot, "Who is bullying you! Look at my shoe! You clearly stepped on me! And before I could say a word, you turn around and accuse me of bumping into you! Have you no sense of reason?"

Yuan Tong took a closer look, and indeed, there was a shoe print on it. Her gaze flickered, and she stammered, "Who... who told you to not watch where you’re going?"

Gu Chengfeng chuckled, "I don’t watch where I’m going? Alright, even assuming I don’t, you do have eyes, don’t you? Why didn’t you dodge? So it seems like you saw me coming, not looking, and intentionally stepped on my foot, bumped into me on purpose!"

Gu Chengfeng had no other intentions, but this sounded to Yuan Tong like he was insinuating she was shameless, lacked modesty, and was deliberately trying to catch his attention. _{freēwēbηovel.c૦m}
