Qifei He lowered his head to look at the lower part of her body and remarked, “Your skirt is dirty.”
With a gentle flick of a finger, a white light flashed.
A piece of white gauze, about the size of a willow leaf, drifted down.
Gu Qingluan looked at the white gauze that was tainted with a fresh red mark as it descended in a spiral. She was left speechless and overcome with emotion.
He had called her over just to mention this?
If he had something to say, he could have simply expressed it. Why resort to cutting a hole in her skirt?
At this point, Gu Qingluan felt that this sole Saint of the Chengyuan Royal Family didn’t possess any profound wisdom; he was just a bit peculiar.
Seeing that the other party didn’t prevent her from seeking revenge, she decided not to dwell on the issue of her ruined skirt.
“Thank you for the reminder, Prince He. In the future, if you encounter such a situation again, you only need to speak up; there’s no need for any physical actions.”
With that, she took her son’s hand and walked away.
Feng Tianlan’s gaze lingered on Qifei He.
Qifei He was smiling as he watched Gu Qingluan’s departing figure. He sensed a chilly and penetrating stare directed at him, so he slightly shifted his gaze and met Feng Tianlan’s profound, cold eyes.
Qifei He’s expression turned somewhat critical.
In Feng Tianlan’s eyes, he mistakenly interpreted the other party as provoking him, causing his gaze to turn even colder in an instant.
“I’ve heard that Prince He isn’t fond of company. After being outside for a while, it’s about time you head back.”
“Those are just rumors. I only meet those I want to meet. As for those I’d rather not encounter, I simply avoid them.”
In the air, it was as if two invisible forces collided fiercely, sparking a shower of sparks.
Qitian You’s breathing paused.
Why did these two young lords appear as if they were about to start a fight?
If a fight broke out, not just the Fifth Prince’s mansion, but the entire Tianjing City might end up destroyed.
So, he had no choice but to speak up and break the tension, “Young Master Lan, Miss Gu and the others have moved quite a distance.”
Feng Tianlan withdrew his gaze and walked away.
The sharp edge in Qifei He’s aura quickly dissipated, leaving him with a nonchalant demeanor. However, his gaze revealed a touch of weariness towards life that couldn’t be ignored.
“You can head back to the palace to report; I won’t be going.”
With those words, he disappeared in a blink.
Qitian You glanced at the scattered remains on the ground, his gaze finally resting on Qitian Yu’s body. He let out a deep sigh.
Once again, he had to clean up this mess.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Gu Xiaonan escorted Zhou Qingyu and the other women out of the Prince’s mansion and settled them in a nearby inn.
Then, he hurried to the Fifth Prince’s mansion. Along the way, he spotted Gu Qingluan and Feng Yuanxi walking hand in hand. Excitedly, he rushed forward. “Mother!”
Seeing her son, Gu Qingluan’s face lit up, and she hugged him tightly.
After they separated, Xiao Bai happily hopped back into his arms.
“Xiao Bai, did you protect Yuanxi?”
“Squeak squeak!”
Xiao Yuanxi was amazing, but Xiao Bai helped too.
“Xiao Bai is fantastic!” Gu Xiaonan gave it a kiss on the head. Suddenly, he caught sight of Feng Tianlan walking towards them and his expression darkened. “Why is the Big Demon King here?”
Big Demon King?
Feng Tianlan observed him closely, finding his appearance increasingly familiar.
Could this little fellow really not be his son?
Gu Qingluan noticed Feng Tianlan’s gaze and sensed his suspicion about Xiaonan’s identity. Her heart raced.
Her identity had been exposed, but she couldn’t allow Xiaonan’s identity to be revealed as well.
At the very least, she needed to ask Xiaonan’s opinion first.
If Xiaonan didn’t want to acknowledge him, she would do her best to conceal his identity.
To divert Feng Tianlan’s attention, she held Xiaonan’s hand and moved forward, asking, “Xiaonan, 1 heard you rescued a group of young ladies. Where are they now?”
“They’re at an inn, and Sister Qianxi is there too. I can take Mother there.”
Gu Qingluan led her two sons ahead.
Feng Tianlan followed behind, his expression enigmatic..
