"I know, but you can review them with one hand. I won't bother you. I'm so quiet and well-behaved..." Wen Nongnong said shamelessly.
Gu Linchao: "..."
How can you review documents with only one hand?
Although he could do it, how could he concentrate on reviewing the papers with this girl sitting next to him?
Just thinking about it, he felt it was impossible.
"Nongnong, you can't be so reckless. I... I'll try to finish this as soon as possible, and then I'll spend time with you." Gu Linchao's handsome face flushed slightly after saying this. Since when had he become so sentimental?
Thinking of this, he frowned. He wanted to sternly rebuke her, but looking at the girl beside him, so delicate and sweet, he couldn't bear to treat her that way.
Fortunately, Wen Nongnong was a sensible person. Since he had already said so, she didn't press the matter further. "Alright then." After saying that, she remembered something and tilted her head to look at him. "Will Your Highness be sleeping in the West Garden tonight, or at the Agarwood Courtyard?"
Hearing her direct question, Gu Linchao's fingers clenched tightly under his sleeves, using great effort to make himself appear normal. He said in a calm voice, "We'll talk about it later."
“Alright.” Wen Nongnong nodded. “Then I’ll go back to my courtyard.”
"Hmm." Gu Linchao closed his eyes briefly, and only after she had walked away did he casually go to his study.
But only he knew that his palms were already soaked with sweat.
That girl...
He discovered that she could easily influence him, including his thoughts, with just a few words.
This was actually a very dangerous thing, but he... did it willingly.
Thinking of this, he rubbed his temples and smiled wryly.
That girl always manages to surprise him, always managing to sneak into his heart when he least expects it, and stir his emotions up.
Thinking about the girl's behavior today, he suddenly felt an urge to hide her away and not let anyone see her.
Realizing his own thoughts, Gu Linchao felt somewhat ashamed.
Nong Nong is not an object; how can he be allowed to manipulate her?
He pinched the bridge of his nose, finding it hard to even look at himself.
...
The Duke of Jingguo.
After taking Xiao Yan's pulse, Physician Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your health is much better now. The potent drugs in your body have been cleared. However, you are still a little weak and need to rest well. Also, remember to take two more doses of the medicine I prescribed."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression relaxed. "This time, we owe a great deal to Physician Lin." He meant it sincerely.
After returning from Yanxu Tower yesterday, he went directly to see Physician Lin. Fortunately, Physician Lin was skilled in this kind of medicine. After taking the medicine he prescribed, the aphrodisiac in his body was neutralized. Otherwise, he might have really lost his innocence.
Physician Lin shook his head, "It was nothing, not worth mentioning." But in his heart, he thought that if it weren't for the Regent Prince many years ago, he wouldn't have bothered to develop an antidote for the potent medicine.
Thanks to that incident, he can now easily counteract most potent and dangerous drugs.
"Duke Jingguo, please rest well. I will take my leave now."
"Someone, escort Physician Lin here," Xiao Yan called out.
Servants immediately came and escorted Physician Lin out.
Xiao Yan rubbed his face. He had really been careless this time and had actually fallen for someone else's trap.
However, that brat Yanliu dared to scheme against him; he'll make her regret it.
After taking the medicine, Xiao Yan went to sleep. When he woke up again, he was indeed in much better spirits.
He sneered and went straight to Yanxu Tower to find Yanliu.
