Qi Guze never expected that the deal between Chu Guangbai and Xu Yuehuai was just a partnership between Tianxianglou!
It was just a title for Tianxiang Tower, and it was located in their Mingyue Kingdom. Qi Guze didn't think these things were very important.
Since Xu Yuehuai has agreed to cooperate with Chu Guangbai, Qi Guze will not stop them.
However, if Chu Guangbai continues to deliberately approach Xu Yuehuai because of this matter, Qi Guze will definitely try to stop him!
"So it's because of the title bestowed upon Tianxiang Tower! Since Xu Yuehuai has agreed to cooperate with you, then I won't get too involved."
"You'd better not have any other ideas, or I will definitely not let you off the hook."
Chu Guangbai smiled faintly when he heard Qi Guze's words.
His face appeared even paler under the sunlight. He coughed lightly and said, "Yes, this humble subject will certainly not do anything else. I will only cooperate with Manager Xu on the matter of bestowing the title upon Tianxiang Restaurant."
After saying that, Qi Guze didn't say anything more and then walked away, gradually distancing himself from Chu Guangbai.
Chu Guangbai did not chase after Qi Guze, but instead walked slowly on his own.
As he walked, Chu Guangbai suddenly started coughing violently again.
She clutched her chest, feeling as if a huge rock was pressing down on it!
Chu Guangbai took a deep breath, paused to catch his breath, and then continued walking towards the outside.
When they arrived outside the palace of the King of the Underworld Moon, his subordinates came to greet Chu Guangbai.
"Young Master! You look terrible! I must take you back to see a doctor right away!"
Chu Guangbai nodded, was helped into the carriage by his subordinates, and then quickly left the Mingyue Kingdom's palace.
Just after Chu Guangbai and the others left, Qi Guze walked out from a corner.
A black-clad guard followed behind Qi Guze. Duan Nian asked Qi Guze, "Master! Should I follow behind them and see which way they went?"
Qi Guze said, "No need! I've already guessed who he is!"
In the entire Kingdom of Mingyue, which other youth could be treated with such courtesy by the King of Mingyue?
He was also seriously ill, which explained his pale complexion!
That must be Chu Guangbai, the former national advisor of the Mingyue Kingdom and a descendant of Chu Dongyang!
Based on his observation just now, Qi Guze immediately determined that the boy was Chu Guangbai!
Unexpectedly, Chu Guangbai had become involved with Xu Yuehuai. It's unclear whether Chu Guangbai did it on purpose or it was just a coincidence.
But no matter what, Qi Guze would not allow anyone to harm Xu Yuehuai!
If Chu Guangbai poses even the slightest threat to Xu Yuehuai, Qi Guze will make Chu Guangbai regret everything he has done!
"Okay!" Duan Nian immediately withdrew after receiving the instruction.
He didn't need to concern himself with Qi Guze's affairs regarding Chu Guangbai. As long as Qi Guze didn't require him to do anything, he would immediately retreat into a dark corner.
Qi Guze withdrew his gaze from the direction where Chu Guangbai had disappeared, immediately boarded the carriage, and rushed back to the Tianxianglou branch.
When they returned to the Tianxianglou branch, the waiter immediately told Zhou Wan and the others about it.
A short while later, Zhou Wan brought Jiang Shichen and the others to the back hall, including Anan, who had just gone out on business.
When Anan saw Qi Guze, she didn't know how to face him.
"Your Highness!" Anan called out to Qi Guze and bowed to him.
Qi Guze reached out and helped Anan up, saying to him, "You are my elder brother's son, so don't call me Prince anymore. When there are no outsiders around, just call me Imperial Uncle!"
Hearing this, Anan was deeply moved, never expecting that Qi Guze would recognize her so quickly.
He had been recuperating in the house and hadn't come out to spend time with Xu Yuehuai and the others.
Seeing Qi Guze again now, she felt a great sense of familiarity, perhaps because of the bloodline she inherited.
“Yes, Imperial Uncle!” Anan said, his eyes reddening.
He had always wanted to find his biological family, but he never expected to encounter so many twists and turns along the way.
Now that he was finally reunited with a family member, Anan could hardly hold back his tears.
Qi Guze frowned. Seeing Anan's somewhat fragile appearance, he felt a little dissatisfied. However, Anan was still just a child who had gone through so many terrible things. It was quite normal for him to have such emotions now.
Without thinking too much about it, he took off a jade pendant from his body and gave it to Anan.
"I don't have much to give you, so consider this a gift from me."
With trembling hands, Anan accepted the jade pendant that Qi Guze had given him.
That jade pendant was exceptionally clear, with a lustrous green sheen. It looked like a fine piece of jade, and no one knew how many years Qi Guze had worn it.
When Anan met Qi Guze, he was wearing this jade pendant the whole time. She never expected him to be so generous as to give it to her.
Deeply moved, she accepted the jade pendant, holding it carefully in her arms, and said to Qi Guze with great gratitude, "Thank you, Imperial Uncle!"
"Alright, from now on, stay by my side and I'll take back your rightful place!"
Qi Guze patted Anan on the shoulder, and Anan nodded vigorously, trusting Qi Guze completely.
After the two of them had a proper reunion, Zhou Wan asked, "What happened to Mother? Why didn't she come back with the Prince?"
Qi Guze then said to Zhou Wan and the others beside him, "The King of Mingyue Kingdom said that he will only let Ayue come back after the little princess is alright."
"What? How could this happen? The little princess has been poisoned by the Seven-Day Intestinal-Piercing Powder, and only the Heavenly Snow Lotus can save her!"
"Where are we going to find Tian Shan snow lotus now? It takes hundreds of years for a few seeds of Tian Shan snow lotus to be produced!"
"Even if we go to Tianshan now, there simply isn't enough time for a round trip!"
Zhou Wan was almost in tears, extremely worried that something might happen to Xu Yuehuai. She had originally thought that Qi Guze could bring Xu Yuehuai back, but even Qi Guze couldn't save her.
This time, I really don't know who can save Xu Yuehuai!
She clutched her handkerchief tightly, pacing anxiously in place.
Qi Guze quickly said, "You don't need to rush. Someone has already given the Heavenly Snow Lotus to the Mingyue Kingdom's army."
Zhou Wan and the others nearby were even more shocked than before after hearing this!
