Chapter 12: He is so brave. Who gave him the courage?

Yun Jin adjusted his mood and pushed the door open.

The room was filled with a faint scent of ambergris. The man was sitting on the couch with the male prostitute in his arms.

He was wearing a black brocade robe with gold embroidery, with a loose collar that revealed his delicate collarbone.

His facial features were distinct and deep, his nose was straight, his lips were tightly pursed, his eyes were deep-set, and he was extraordinarily handsome, but he was shrouded in a gloomy and cold aura.

Yun Jin looked at him hugging the person in his arms, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and then disappeared in an instant, bowing his head and closing his eyes, saying: "I greet the Third Prince. I wonder what instructions the Prince has for me?"

Gu Quan ignored him and instead held the male prostitute in his arms, stroked his hair, and whispered softly into his ear.

I don't know what he said, but the male prostitute started to giggle and leaned against Gu Quan's chest. He put his hands around his neck, blew hot air into his ear with his red lips, and said something ambiguous: "Your Highness is so bad! I like it."

There was no expression on Yun Jin's face. He stood there with his eyes lowered and did not move, but his heart felt as if it was pricked by needles.

The two continued in this intimate position for a long time.

Gu Quan never looked at him.

It was as if he had forgotten that there was another person in the room.

Yun Jin looked at him. He was clearly right in front of her, yet she felt that he was so far away, like the stars in the night sky, which she could never catch again...

After a while, Gu Quan finally let the male prostitute go.

Yun Jin lowered his head and took two steps back, lowering his eyebrows and looking submissive, and said, "My Lord, please call me here. What do you want me to do?"

Gu Quan raised his eyes to look at him, raised his hand to pick up the wine glass on the table, took a sip, and said with a half-chuckle: "I am very satisfied with the beauty that Boss Yun chose for me today."

A trace of sadness flashed across Yun Jin's eyes, and he lowered his head and said, "My Lord, as long as you are satisfied."

After he finished speaking, he felt Gu Quan's gaze on him suddenly become extremely sharp, like a sharp blade.

Such a sharp gaze made him stiffen all over and even had difficulty breathing.

Unfortunately, Gu Quan did not intend to retract his gaze. Instead, he stared at him more recklessly, as if he wanted to see through his soul and body.

"In this case, I cannot let down Boss Yun's kindness. Let him return home with me and serve me today."

His words sounded casual, but every word seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his throat, cold and heavy, oppressing people to the point of almost suffocating them.

Yun Jin's body swayed and he almost fell down.

But he quickly calmed down and said respectfully, "My Lord, this is not appropriate. Xianpin Residence has its rules and regulations, and we cannot do this outside..."

Gu Quan suddenly interrupted him and tapped the table with his fingers. The crisp sound made people's eardrums buzz. He narrowed his narrow and long phoenix eyes, and his deep pupils stared straight at Yun Jin: "What? Are you teaching me how to do things?"

"I dare not, but..."

"That's enough!" He slammed the table, his voice rising an octave, "Since he can't do it, then you do it!"

He stretched out his index finger and pointed at Yunjin's chest, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

Yun Jin was stunned for a moment, took a step back and almost fell down. Fortunately, he was supported by a male prostitute beside him and managed to stand still.

"Your Highness, please don't be angry. That's not what Boss Yun meant. I am willing to go back home with you~" He pulled Gu Quan's sleeve coquettishly and spoke in a sweet voice.

Gu Quan smiled, playing with the jade pendant in his hand, and said lazily: "What do you think, Boss Yun? Do you agree to let him go? Or is Boss Yun worried and wants to go back to the palace with me?"

Yun Jin clenched his fists, a bitter smile appeared on his lips, and after a moment of silence, he lowered his head and said, "I will send someone to pick up Zhu Yin tomorrow."

"you……"

Gu Quan laughed in anger, and suddenly swung his hand to smash the jade pendant to the ground. With a crisp "pop" sound, the jade pendant broke into several pieces and scattered everywhere.

He walked slowly to Yun Jin, raised his hand and pinched his chin, forcing Yun Jin to look at him, and said word by word: "You are so willing to do this!"

His eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent, making people feel cold all over and shudder.

"Yunjin."

He leaned forward slightly, leaned close to Yun Jin's ear, and whispered, "Since you are so thoughtful, then I would like to thank you for your kindness."

Having said that, he took Zhuyin in his arms and left Yage.

Yun Jin stood where he was and bowed, "Slave, I respectfully send you off, Your Majesty."

Until the figure disappeared, his body swayed and he fell to the ground, tears slid down his cheeks, dripping onto the floor tiles, leaving a circle of water stains.

The stars that once fell on his chest returned to the night sky, never to shine for him alone again.

He is now a high and mighty prince, no longer the young man who gave him the wooden hairpin and said he would take him home.

He no longer needs him...

Gu Quan walked out of the Ya Pavilion and stopped under the eaves, staring into the distance in a daze. He didn't even notice that Gu Huai had walked up to him.

Gu Huai glanced at the male prostitute beside him and frowned, "Brother, the wine is finished, let's go."

He really couldn't stand the smell here.

After returning, he would definitely persuade his third brother not to come here to drink again, as it was really too torturous.

Gu Quan turned around upon hearing this, glanced at his face, said "hmm", and turned to walk downstairs.

Zhu Yin quickly chased after him, took his arm and said coquettishly, "My Lord, please walk slowly."

Gu Quan let him support him, his face gloomy, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Gu Huai glanced at the two of them and was about to speak when he saw Pei Ji hurrying over with an anxious look on his face.

His eyes lit up for a moment, then dimmed again.

Could it be that the people sent to follow Ji Zhiyang found evidence that he was passing messages to others?

So fast? He couldn't hold back?

Who could it be? Who could he be working for?

I guess it will be revealed soon.

Seeing Pei Ji approaching, Gu Huai felt inexplicably annoyed, but Pei Ji didn't seem to see him. He couldn't help but shout, "Pei Ji!"

Pei Ji's steps suddenly stopped.

Gu Quan also stopped.

Pei Ji saw him and was a little surprised: "Wang, Wang Ye."

Gu Quan looked at Gu Huai and said, "Since you have something to do, I will go back home first."

Gu Huai said "OK", and after Gu Quan left, he looked at Pei Ji and asked, "Did you find out that he met with someone else? Who is he working for?"

... Pei Ji pursed his lips, not knowing how to start talking for a moment.

Everything was originally arranged, but Jiang Wang insisted on following Ji Zhiyang. He originally thought that with Jiang Wang following him, Ji Zhiyang would not meet with others rashly, but he did not expect that the two of them would actually come to Xianpinju.

If the person sent to follow Ji Zhiyang had not told him, he would not have known.

Seeing his serious expression, Gu Huai thought something serious had happened, so he urged, "What happened? Could it be that he was really sent by Gu Jing?"

If that was true, then he pretended so well that the two of them spent two days together and he didn't notice anything wrong.

Pei Ji shook his head and sighed, "No, the people sent to follow him didn't find him meeting with anyone else."

Hearing this, Gu Huai actually breathed a sigh of relief, without even realizing it.

Pei Ji looked at him in confusion, always feeling that something was strange, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

"Have someone continue to follow. If we don't see you today, maybe we'll find something tomorrow..." He changed the subject and said, "Do you have anything else to do when you come here to see me?"

Judging from Pei Ji's anxious look just now, there must be something else.

If he wasn't here to look for him, then why was he here?

Could it be that...

Pei Ji felt a little guilty when Gu Huai looked at him, with an unnatural expression on his face, "I, your subordinate... have come to find Jiang Wang..."

Gu Huai was stunned, thinking he had heard wrongly, and asked in disbelief, "He's here?"

Even after hearing it with his own ears, he still found it hard to believe.

Although Jiang Wang was picked up by Pei Ji, Pei Ji always treated him as his own brother. He took good care of him on weekdays, as if he were a treasure, wishing to hold him in his palm and love him.

Sometimes he even felt that Pei Ji was not his bodyguard, but Jiang Wang's bodyguard.

He still remembered the first time he met Jiang Wang. He looked so thin and stayed in the house all day, ignoring everyone except Pei Ji.

Pei Ji took good care of him. In just a few months, he gradually gained weight and became more lively, like a different person. Especially listening to Pei Ji's words, Pei Ji, like him, disliked this kind of place the most. Logically, Jiang Wang should not come here.

Alas! The child has grown up and needs to be independent. It is time for Pei Ji to let go.

"Yes." Pei Ji nodded, "I don't know why he came here."

Why did he come here?

How could he have the courage to visit Xianpinju?

It seems that he has been treated too well on weekdays, and has become lawless!

When he brings the man back, he will definitely give him a severe lesson!

Gu Huai looked at Pei Ji, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, saying: "He is not a child anymore, you can't take care of him all his life. He will get married and have children in the future, and he will have his own life."

Yes, that's right, Jiang Wang will get married and have children in the future and will separate from him. He can't keep Jiang Wang by his side and protect her all his life.

But he was only fourteen, still a child.

He called him brother, how could he ignore him?

If Jiang Wang wants to leave him when he grows up, he will naturally agree.

But now he is still young, how can he bear to let him leave his wings?

But he is only fourteen years old now.

He dared to visit kilns at the age of fourteen. Who gave him the courage?

Pei Ji was stunned for a moment, "But..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gu Huai.

"If you don't want him to have contact with men, you might as well find him a marriage partner as soon as possible. If he can marry a virtuous woman, you can rest assured."

Arrange a marriage? He had never thought of arranging a marriage for Jiang Wang!

He just hoped that he could grow up safely and healthily, and he didn't care too much about other things.

Gu Huai's words reminded Pei Ji that in two years, he should find a suitable girl for Jiang Wang to marry.

But...what kind of person can be worthy of Jiang Wang?

Seeing Pei Ji lost in thought, Gu Huai raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder twice, "Go quickly. It would be terrible if you were seduced by a male prostitute."

He withdrew his hand, turned around and walked out of Xianpinju. When he was about to leave, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Where is he? Has he returned home?"

"Huh?" Pei Ji was stunned for a moment, then he realized that Gu Huai was talking about Ji Zhiyang.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "He...he left the mansion with Jiang Wang today, and he should also be in Xianpinju now..."

Gu Huai was stunned for a moment, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, then he returned to normal and said indifferently: "Are you trying to pass on some news under the name of Xianpinju? You are quite brave! I will go and take a look!" After that, he strode upstairs.

Pei Ji looked at Gu Huai's back and felt something was strange, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
