Chapter 100 Ji Qiubai and Gu meet
Jiaying Building, third floor.
Le Shan reached out and pushed the sleeping man on the couch, calling softly:
"Young Master, wake up."
Ji Qiubai frowned slightly, slowly opened his eyes, glanced at him calmly, and asked in a hoarse voice:
“I can walk now”
Le Shan stepped forward and helped his master sit up. He bent down to straighten his robes and kept answering:
"Well, the prince has been waiting in the carriage outside the door for a while. He just sent someone to inform you to come downstairs and go back to the palace together."
Ji Qiubai was delighted when he heard this, brushed Leshan aside, and said with a curled lip:
"Did mother fail to find someone and return home disappointed?"
Otherwise why would he leave so soon?
It shouldn't be like this!
Le Shan looked up at him, pursed his lips, and spoke in a lower and lower voice:
"It is said that the prince has two favorites, but he has not yet decided. He said that he will invite them to the palace in a few days to take a closer look, and then, then he wants you to be present on that day as well."
Ji Qiubai frowned, flicked his sleeves, and walked out with his attendants, saying unhappily:
"No, I don't want to choose these weak scholars as my wives. I'm going to talk to my mother and ask her to cancel the banquet. Humph, if you insist on choosing a son-in-law, then I will..."
Ji Qiubai did not say the rest of the words, but the four personal attendants behind him understood.
I'm afraid the young master is going to run away from home again!
Thinking of this, several people looked at each other, Leshan took a few quick steps to catch up, and whispered:
"Sir, why don't you tell the truth to the prince and let him use the power of the Nanyou Palace to help you find it. It's much better than you trying to find a needle in a haystack privately."
Ji Qiubai walked down the stairs without stopping, without looking back, and ordered in a cold voice:
"Without my permission, the four of you are not allowed to tell my mother about this matter, otherwise I will hand you all over to my father for punishment."
Le Shan immediately closed his lips, not daring to say anything more, and whispered:
"Sir, I just said something nonsense. Please don't take it seriously. The four of us will keep the matter a secret and will not reveal it to the prince."
Upon hearing this, Ji Qiubai tilted his head and glanced at him lightly, curling the corners of his lips slightly and saying "hmm" with satisfaction.
Unexpectedly, it was this turn.
He accidentally bumped into someone at the corner.
The sudden impact caused Ji Qiubai to stagger. He took a few steps back and fell on Leshan.
The other side.
The banquet is over.
Gu Ranran suddenly felt a stomachache. When she came out of the toilet, she found that all her classmates had left.
She walked out slowly, looking at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.
I never thought of that either.
Someone would walk around the corner so fast.
As I just passed the door, I was bumped into by someone.
Gu Ranran covered her chest with one hand, frowned, and looked over with some displeasure.
However……
When I saw clearly the face of the man I had just collided with.
Her astonished pupils dilated slightly, her heart tightened, and she subconsciously held her breath.
Gu Ranran came back to her senses from her daze, blinked a few times, her ears turned red, and she said nervously:
"Hey, sir, are you okay?"
opposite.
Ji Qiubai was supported by Leshan and stood up. He glanced at Gu Ranran with fire in his eyes, took out a piece of silver from his waist, threw it to her, and snorted coldly:
"I'm fine, but you, take this ingot of silver and don't rely on me and waste my precious time."
After saying that, Ji Qiubai didn't wait for her reply. He pursed his lips, took his four servants, and walked out quickly, past the crowd.
In an instant.
Gu Ranran was the only one left there.
Holding the silver in both hands, he stared at the beautiful woman's back with burning eyes, without moving for a long time.
Let’s talk about Ji Qiubai.
I was already in a bad mood and just now I bumped into someone.
Now, he angrily led a group of servants, strode onto the horse stool that the coachman had already placed, lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.
Didn't notice.
There was a beautiful woman opposite, helping her husband into the carriage, and the two of them passed each other in a hurry.
The next day.
The morning light is dim.
The sunlight shines through the layers of red leaves, casting mottled shadows on several students who are gathered for discussion.
Occasionally, a gentle breeze blew, carrying their faint voices to the ears of Su Yuan who was walking behind them:
"Really? Mr. Su looks so cold and calm on weekdays, but he is such a shameless person behind the scenes."
"Well, of course, Gu... ahem, who said it personally? They passed the exam in the same town, how could it be false?
People have said it themselves, that Su Yuan used money to force her fiancé to change his words last year, and later forced him to change his words, and then accused her of being a bad person in front of many people, throwing dirty water on her. "
"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect that someone with such a bad character would be qualified to be ranked above us. I'm really angry just thinking about it."
Hear here.
Su Yuan sneered, walked a few steps to the gossipers, glanced at them with a hint of disdain in his narrow eyes, and said lightly:
"If you don't want the teacher to know that there are a few gossipers in the academy, follow them immediately."
After that, she led a few people along the way, deliberately slowing down her pace and heading towards the North Academy.
Su Yuan stood at the entrance of the school, looking around the room, finally stopping at the culprit.
She led several classmates behind her, who lowered their heads like wilted chickens, and walked slowly and carefully as if stepping on people's hearts, until they arrived in front of Gu Ranran.
Su Yuan lightly lifted his eyelids, glanced at her indifferently, tilted his head and raised his chin to point at the women behind him, with a hint of coldness in his tone, as if smiling:
"I just heard a rumor in the academy that slandered my reputation. The rumor was directed at my classmate Gu. I want to ask if it is true."
Seeing a flash of guilt in Gu Ranran's eyes, she was about to deny it, but she raised her hand to interrupt him and continued:
"It's no wonder I asked this question. As a student, being rumored to have a bad character will really hinder my future career. Today, I want to find the person who spread the rumor and confront him at the government office to prove my innocence."
"Don't worry, classmate Gu. I am investigating one by one. If it weren't for the false rumors spread by you, we are students from the same town. You have always been a good person. I would like to ask you to help prove it. I believe you should be willing, right?"
When Gu Ranran heard that she was going to report this matter to the government, a thin layer of sweat instantly broke out on his forehead. He swallowed his saliva in panic and quickly explained:
"I didn't say that. I am indeed from the same town as Case Leader Su. I, I can prove for her that Case Leader Su has no problem with his character and the rumors are false."
After saying that, she raised her eyes and glanced at the person in front of her. By chance, she met Su Yuan's intimidating gaze, which frightened her so much that she shuddered and cautiously asked:
"Captain Su, rumors stop at the wise. This matter is just a few casual gossips. Now I have helped you to clarify it. You don't need to report it to the government. It will be too troublesome to make such a scene."
