Chapter 258: Being Beaten
“Oh!”
Shen Hechuan snorted coldly.
"He's devoted to me?"
"I think he has ulterior motives."
Gu Jingchun frowned slightly.
"Why do you say that about him?"
She had thought that Shen Hechuan truly admired Ye Wenxi, but now when she heard this, she felt a momentary discomfort in her heart.
"he……"
Shen Hechuan was about to say that he had ulterior motives.
However, looking at Gu Jingchun's clear eyes, one could tell that Gu Jingchun definitely didn't know what Ye Wenxi was thinking.
Therefore, he had to swallow his words, turned his head away, and said in a muffled voice:
"In short, he is hypocritical. You should have less contact with him in the future."
Gu Jingchun was even more confused, thinking that he had made the same mistake as before and started to be jealous of the men around her for no reason, so he just sighed and persuaded:
"Wenxi is different from other men."
"He is very knowledgeable. If it weren't for helping me, he would have been an official in the court long ago. Although I can't let you help him become an official, at least I hope you respect him."
When Shen Hechuan heard this, he was about to explode with anger!
"Should I still respect him?"
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
"Do you know what he did?"
Gu Jingchun looked up.
"Then tell me, what has he done?"
Chen Hechuan opened his mouth to speak, but found that if he explained in detail, Ye Wenxi really had not done anything great. Even if he was asked to explain, he had no idea where to start.
This made him even more irritable.
It's been a long time since I felt this aggrieved.
Looking at Gu Jingchun's eyes, Chen Hechuan didn't want to say anything more and turned away angrily.
Before leaving, he kicked the stone in front of him hard because of anger.
The stone flew out directly and happened to fall on the head of Tianji who was rushing over.
He covered his head and cursed.
"Who the hell threw this stone? Doesn't he have eyes? He's going to die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Hechuan's sinister eyes shot over.
Tianji was suddenly shocked, his neck shrank, his mouth opened, and he laughed dryly.
"I...I was just kidding."
"I think I've been a little out of my mind lately. I deserve to be beaten."
Shen Hechuan rolled his eyes before speaking.
"What is it?"
"Nothing..."
Tianji pouted as he spoke, then turned around and took Chen Hechuan to the other side.
"Master, you see, I don't know what's going on with that guy named Ye. He's been hanging around among us for a while now, and he's been giving us all kinds of gifts."
"Look, food and drinks were delivered in just a short while. He's almost bribed our people."
"I originally wanted to stop it,
However, he chose to use Miss Gu's name, and even if I wanted to stop him, I didn't know how to stop him."
Chen Hechuan watched Ye Wenxi mingling with his men, his eyes gloomy, his lips tightly pursed, and he remained silent for a long time.
Tianji looked at Shen Hechuan like this and subconsciously took a step back. Then he asked cautiously: "Your Highness, what should we do now?"
Shen Hechuan smiled.
"What can we do? They came here out of kindness to give us something. Do we really want to beat them up?"
"Since he wants to send it, then let him do it. We won't lose anything anyway."
Chen Hechuan gritted his teeth and for the first time had the urge to beat someone up.
Chen Hechuan thought so and did so.
Soon after Ye Wenxi came out of the woods to relieve himself, he put a sack on the man and beat him up severely.
A moment later.
Tianji looked at Shen Hechuan, who was enjoying the fight but kept moving his wrist because it was numb from the shock, and said:
"Your hands must be hurting. If I had let my subordinates go earlier, I would have beaten him to a pulp."
Shen Hechuan snorted coldly.
"How can I vent my anger if I ask you to hit me?"
Shen Hechuan didn't know what was wrong with him.
He is such an old man, but he is as impatient as a child. He does such irrational things just because he is provoked by someone.
However, he didn't know that after he beat the man, Ye Wenxi immediately went to find Gu Jingchun with injuries on his face.
In Gu Jingchun's carriage.
He looked at Ye Wenxi's face and body, and couldn't help muttering while applying medicine to him.
"What kind of person is this? He would be so ruthless as to beat you up like this out of no reason."
Ye Wenxi shook his head.
"I don't know. I pride myself on having a good temper, and I haven't made any enemies in recent times. I really can't imagine who would hit me like this."
When Gu Jingchun heard this, he suddenly remembered what Shen Hechuan had just said.
After thinking about it, she shook her head again.
How could Chen Hechuan be such a childish person to do such a thing as beating someone up?
Ye Wenxi lowered his eyes slightly to look at Gu Jingchun's expression and added another sentence.
"However, I don't know how I offended His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The way he looked at me didn't seem very friendly."
Gu Jingchun paused for a moment before explaining for him.
"Maybe you're overthinking it. He's been too busy lately, so his eyes might be a little uncomfortable."
Gu Jingchun found a lame excuse.
Ye Wenxi looked at Gu Jingchun deeply, then nodded calmly.
"Perhaps."
Gu Jingchun finished applying medicine on his arm and was about to continue, but when he looked up and met Ye Wenxi's face, he felt something was wrong.
She couldn't help but put down what she was holding.
"Wait a moment, I'll ask Lan Xin to come and apply medicine for you."
Ye Wenxi paused.
"Why? Didn't you always apply medicine to me before?"
Gu Jingchun nodded.
"Yes, I was the one who applied the medicine to you before."
"But now, it's not very convenient."
After Gu Jingchun finished speaking, he looked up and looked directly into Ye Wenxi's eyes.
“You know the relationship between me and Shen Hechuan.”
"Since I have already identified him, I will not give others the opportunity to misunderstand me."
"I know we've been friends for many years, and you won't like me, and I won't have any other feelings for you.
However, out of respect for Shen Hechuan, I will not do anything with you that might cause him to misunderstand."
"I was a little anxious just now and forgot about it. Now that I've realized that something is not appropriate, I will leave as soon as possible to avoid causing more misunderstandings."
Gu Jingchun left after she finished speaking. The moment she got off the carriage, she heard Ye Wenxi calling her softly.
"Jingchun."
Gu Jingchun stopped and looked back.
The red hairpin on her head shook violently because of her movements, as if Ye Wenxi's heart was swaying back and forth at this moment.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Jingchun asked again.
Ye Wenxi shook his head.
"fine."
"I just suddenly feel that the prince is so happy. You are so thoughtful and considerate, doing this for him."
Gu Jingchun blinked.
