Chapter 115

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Gu Jingchen was so excited that he started coughing all of a sudden and couldn't stop.

Ye Jingyue rushed forward to pat his back.

"Cousin, are you okay?"

[Oh! My cousin is too weak and naive! I'd better get rid of the poison for him! Otherwise, I'm really afraid that my cousin will be killed by me. ]

When Ye Jingyue's inner voice sounded, Gu Jingchen smelled a faint fragrance.

Then, his broken body recovered a little bit, and the cough was not obvious.

But his whole face was red because of the cough, and pale because of the poisoning. The whole person looked particularly miserable.

It seemed like he would break at any time.

Gu Jingchen's body gradually recovered, and he calmed down. He covered his mouth with his hand and smiled at Ye Jingyue.

"Thank you for your concern, cousin. I'm fine."

If eyes could kill people, Ye Jingyue would have died countless times.

Ye Jingyue felt a little guilty.

Gu Jingchen's eyes were actually very calm, even gentle.

But she felt a strong murderous aura from them.

[What's wrong with my cousin? Why does he seem to dislike me?]

[No, no, no, it must be my illusion. I am his most lovely little cousin! I am so pretty and lovely, why would my cousin want to stab me? It must be me. I am overthinking!]

[I know! My cousin must look haggard and weak now. He doesn't want me to see him. He is afraid that his great and glorious image in my heart will be destroyed.]

[Don't worry, cousin! Everything you are like now is my fault. Of course I know that your current fragility and appearance are fake. In my heart, you will always be my handsome and powerful cousin!]

Gu Chen turned his head away in shock. He

really didn't want to look Ye Jingyue in the eye.

He really didn't have such a good acting skill to hide his resentment towards Ye Jingyue!!!

Gu Rong also felt a little guilty on the side.

Gu Jingchen is in such a miserable state now because of Ye Jingyue. As a mother, she feels a little guilty!

She laughed dryly and said to Shen Tingyi: "Sister-in-law, I think Jingchen looks much better now. He should be fine."

Shen Tingyi also noticed it.

She looked at Ye Jingyue deeply and said to her: "Yue'er, you can come to see your cousin more often."

Shen Tingyi is called the female Zhuge, which is enough to show her wisdom.

The poison pill sent by Ye Jingyue was definitely not accidental, and it was not easy for her to expose Xia He's true face.

Shen Tingyi and Xia He have been mother and daughter for so many years, but she has not seen through Xia He.

How did Ye Jingyue see it?

In addition, before Ye Jingyue came, Gu Jingchen looked half dead.

After such a short while, he had visibly improved.

She would not believe him if he said it had nothing to do with Ye Jingyue. Ye

Jingyue nodded obediently: "I will come to see my cousin often."

Gu Jingchen complained in his heart: You can come to see him, but please don't hurt him!

He really has sequelae.

It was a rare opportunity for Gu Rong to come to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, so he stayed for lunch.

Gu Jingchen's condition had improved a lot, and he could tremble to the table with the help of the servant.

Ye Jingyue looked at his weak and trembling legs, feeling guilty.

[I seem to be... a little harsh]

She touched her nose, with a bright and embarrassed smile on her face.

[Ah... I didn't expect my cousin to be so rude!]

Gu Jingchen rolled his eyes in his heart.

With her methods, he was already very rude.

If it were an ordinary person, he might not last a day.

Cousin, don't you understand your own abilities?

The family of the Duke of Zhenguo was having a meal.

Suddenly, the housekeeper ran in.

Looking at Shen Tingyi, hesitating.

Shen Tingyi's expression did not change.

"No one is an outsider here, just say what you want to say."

"Miss Xia He is kneeling outside, asking to see Madam."

Shen Tingyi snorted coldly, his face full of coldness: "She still has the nerve to come and beat her away with a stick, no!"

Shen Tingyi was also a heroine when she was young. She followed Gu Ye to the battlefield and saw all kinds of scenes.

She also has an innate strong aura that makes people feel uneasy.

The housekeeper took the order and went to deal with Xia He.

Xia He's screams could still be heard in the dining room.

"Dad, Mom, I know I was wrong. Please let me go back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion! I will die in the Xia Mansion!"

"My dad wants to marry me to the old lady of the Chen family. Mom, please save me."

"For the sake of our mother and daughter, mom, please save me, save me!"

Xia He's screams became smaller and smaller.

The housekeeper was not a pushover. He could still deal with a weak woman.

He called a few female stewards, picked up Xia He, and sent her back to the Xia Mansion.

Xia He begged for help at first.

But seeing the heartless attitude of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, she stopped begging and laughed miserably.

“Hahaha! Shen Tingyi, you won’t be able to live even if I die! You have been taking the poison of the life-stealing grass for half a month, even the immortal can’t save you!”

“Hahaha… I will still have you to accompany me if I die, I won’t lose it! Hahaha…”

“Mom, save me…”

“Brother Jingchen, save me…”

Xia He’s voice gradually faded away.

But her madness and despair can be fully felt.

Xia He's father is a seventh-rank official. In this imperial city full of powerful people, the Xia Mansion really doesn't rank.

Xia He's father does have a heart to cling to the powerful.

But a seventh-rank official doesn't have much salary and fame, what can he cling to

Fortunately, he has many daughters.

This daughter is given to a powerful person.

That daughter is given to a powerful person.

You can always get some benefits.

Xia He has been raised in the Zhenguogong Mansion for so many years. In order to keep the Xia Mansion quiet, the Zhenguogong Mansion also gives a lot of benefits to the Xia Mansion every year.

Now Xia He was driven out for poisoning Shen Tingyi.

Her value in the Zhenguogong Mansion is gone.

Women who have no value will be sent away by Xia He's father.

Unfortunately, the old lady of the Chen family was seriously ill this time and needed a surprise.

Xia He's father couldn't wait to send Xia He over.

The Chen family is the relative family of the prince's uncle, and Xia He would benefit from sending her over.

Gu Rong listened to Xia He's voice getting farther and farther away, and asked Shen Tingyi puzzledly: "She said you were poisoned, what's the matter?"

She saw that Shen Tingyi looked very good.

His face was rosy and he was very confident, better than any other time they met.

He didn't look like he was poisoned at all.

Shen Tingyi smiled slightly and looked at Gu Rong very kindly.

Shen Tingyi and Gu Rong have always had a good relationship. Now because of Ye Jingyue, Shen Tingyi feels even closer to Gu Rong.

She told him all the thrilling things that happened that day.

Gu Rong was so angry that he trembled all over.

"Xia He is such an ungrateful person! She deserves what she has now!"
