Chapter 332: Deliberately Pleasing

Gu Mingqi finally succumbed to his body's needs and swallowed the food that he felt was worse than dog food.

But when the food entered his stomach, he felt that it didn't taste too bad.

"Oh! After finishing his meals recently, this prince finally can't pretend anymore?" After the yamen runner came over and saw the empty bowl, he began to sneer at Gu Mingqi.

How could Gu Mingqi be happy to hear such words? But now he could do nothing but curse a few times.

"Just wait for me." Gu Mingqi said gritting his teeth. At this moment, he had already thought of many ways that the person in front of him could die.

At this moment, he even blamed those who had not found him yet. When the time came, he would punish those people as well.

Here, all you can do every day is wait. Gu Mingqi has been upset for a long time, but it is time for dinner soon.

"You did it on purpose!" Gu Mingqi looked at the amount in the bowl and saw that it was obviously leftover food, so he shouted at the people outside the prison.

The bailiff raised his chin and said nothing, but anyone could tell what he was saying: It was intentional, so what!

"You!" Gu Mingqi stretched out his hand outside the railing, grabbed one of the yamen runners by the collar and pulled him in front of him before the runners could react and retreat.

"What are you doing! Let go!" The other person reacted quickly and slapped Gu Mingqi's arm.

"Let me go!" Gu Mingqi's hand was pressing against his neck, and the clothes behind his neck were tightly strangling him, making it difficult for him to speak.

"Ouch!" This was the exclamation of someone who was in the same prison and had given his bowl and chopsticks to Gu Mingqi several times.

"Let him go, let him go." A hand reached out from behind and pried open Gu Mingqi's clenched fists. "It would be bad if more people came later."

Gu Mingqi turned a deaf ear and continued to increase his strength.

At this time, another man drew his sword and said, "Let him go, or I will cut him off with one strike and you will lose your arm!"

Gu Mingqi's fierce gaze now turned to another person. Looking up, he found that the other person's sword was already hanging high.

After staring at the tattered and rusty sword for a while, Gu Mingqi finally lost his strength.

"Cough, cough, cough!" The person who was released suddenly turned to one side and started coughing continuously.

After Gu Mingqi took a look, he sat in the corner with his head down, thinking about something.

"Don't be angry with them." A soothing voice came from the side, "I'll be out in a few days. When the time comes, I'll help you find whoever you want me to find."

Gu Mingqi then slowly raised his head and squinted his eyes to look at the man.

The prince, who had been raised with love and care, naturally received the praise of everyone, so Gu Mingqi had no doubts about the other party's actions of giving him food.

Just treat it as it should be, this is how Gu Mingqi thought and accepted it.

But at this moment, Gu Mingqi suddenly understood something. This person had not been enthusiastic towards him from the beginning. It seemed that it was only after he mentioned the name of the 'Seventh Prince' that this person...

"What are you planning?" Gu Mingqi asked with a sneer.

"Hey, I'm helping you, but have I ever asked you for any benefit?" Under Gu Mingqi's scrutiny, the man remained calm, as if he was really just helping others out of kindness.

Gu Mingqi already had his suspicions, but the person in front of him had no intention of admitting it, and was still looking at him with a look that said, "You don't know how to appreciate a good person."

The man in front of him was feeling uneasy because he had been stared at by Gu Mingqi. He was just trying to please Gu Mingqi.

I heard the word "prince" that day. Who was he? A habitual thief. Although he couldn't afford valuable things, he had good taste.

Gu Mingqi's clothes were not cheap items, and the same was true for his accessories. Although there were doubts about whether Gu Mingqi was a prince, he was still a wealthy man.

By helping Gu Mingqi, he could also gain some benefits from it, but this was not a good time to make it clear. He had to discover the other party's identity inadvertently so that everything would be reasonable.

"Well, if you don't want to, forget it."

Gu Mingqi didn't believe what he said, but now he couldn't get out, and the trash outside couldn't find him. No matter what this person wanted to get from him, it was worth using him if he could get Gu Mingqi out.

"Go find it, and I'll tell you when you get out." Gu Mingqi said this when the man turned around to leave.

"Okay!" The man was ecstatic. "Don't worry, I will definitely get you out."

However, this good deed of helping Gu Mingqi did not happen to him.

After they finished talking for a few words, the yamen runners outside also recovered. The one who was injured by Gu Mingqi ignored the people behind him who were trying to stop him, opened the door and was about to come in.

Gu Mingqi snorted coldly. If he couldn’t handle a group of people, could he beat two people?

So he walked towards the door with a cold face. Soon the three of them started fighting. The winner and loser were easy to tell, but the result was not yet out.

The sound of a group of people's footsteps could be heard not far away, and faint apologies could be heard.

But Gu Mingqi had no time to care. The habitual thief heard it clearly, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. Then he used the fastest speed and greatest strength he could to push the yamen runner off Gu Mingqi.

“You, you guys…”

"Seventh Prince!"

The people outside walked over quickly and saw people lying on the ground.

Gu Mingqi had just been entangled with a yamen runner, and when the other party fell, he fell to the ground with him. As soon as he raised his hands, he heard a long-lost cry.

Without caring about his image, Gu Mingqi rushed in front of the newcomer and slapped him without saying a word, "If you come later, you will be waiting for me to collect your body!"

"Seventh Prince, please calm down. Please calm down. Don't say such nonsense." It was a local official.

He was extremely terrified at this moment, and kept cursing in his heart, wondering who was the blind man who had locked up such a respected Buddha in jail. Wasn't he trying to kill him?

"Who are you? How dare you stop me!" Gu Mingqi had lost all his rationality at this moment. He just wanted to vent all the resentment he had accumulated over the past three days.

"Seventh Prince, I am an official here." The official said with a smile, taking the initiative and apologizing and making amends.

But Gu Mingqi refused to accept it. Since he was imprisoned here, except for the two yamen runners who delivered meals, no one in official uniform had come in.

"Oh?" The coldness on Gu Mingqi's lips remained unchanged, and the murderous intent in his eyes could not be hidden.

The official had no choice but to endure Gu Mingqi's gaze. God knows when he heard that the seventh prince was imprisoned in his cell, he had already thought of a hundred ways to escape.

He was really about to take action, but was stopped by someone.
