The man in black nodded.
“This subordinate knows. When I came, Young Master had already sent someone to inform me clearly. I’m also prepared to lose my life if I fail!” When Prince Guang heard him say this, he nodded in satisfaction.
“I heard that your name is Ren Chao? A few years ago, you escaped from death row because you failed to assassinate the princess. I’ve always wanted to ask you.
“Princess Yaoguang has a top-notch expert by her side called Ye Siming. Moreover, there are many guards in the death row prison. How did you escape?”
Prince Guang’s tone was filled with doubt.
However, Ren Chao was neither servile nor overbearing, his expression normal.
“It’s not easy to escape. I also suffered an inhuman pursuit and was lucky enough to escape by hiding under the cliff.”
After saying that, he reached out his hand and showed Prince Guang his right hand.
The palm that should have had five fingers was missing a pinky.
Prince Guang placed his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice, “It seems that you have a grudge against the princess for having made you lose your finger.”
Ren Chao nodded. “Not only is it for working for the Young Master, but it’s also for my own hatred. I’ll take revenge even if I have to die!”
Only then did Prince Guang clap.
“Well said. You can leave. You don’t have to look for me these few days to avoid exposing your whereabouts. Three days later, act according to the situation!”
“Yes.”
After Ren Chao left, Prince Guang returned to the hall and sat quietly sipping his tea.
He turned sideways and narrowed his eyes to look at the moonlight.
Over the past few days, one wrong step led to another. Before he could do anything, he had already aroused Gu Yihan’s disgust.
Therefore, he decided to go all out and carry out a real assassination.
However, in order to gain Gu Yihan’s trust, he decided to put on a show of hurting himself!
At that time, he would definitely be the one who got injured while protecting the emperor.
When he became His Majesty’s benefactor, no one in the imperial court would dare to underestimate mm!
Thinking of this, a cruel and sinister smile appeared on Prince Guang’s dark face.
The next day, the weather was clear and the breeze was warm.
Gu Nuo’er pulled Qiao Xiuli to her Four Seasons Sweet Shop.
The child’s business had expanded and the entire street belonged to her!
“Brother, choose whatever you want. Which shop on this street do you like? I’ll give it to you!” Gu Nuo’er raised her chin proudly.
Qiao Xiuli was wearing a long robe and had a cold jade-like disposition.
Hearing this, he smiled. “Why would Brother want the shop?”
Gu Nuo’er scratched her face and smiled in embarrassment.
She wheedled and said, “Aiya, isn’t it because I’ve earned too much? I’ve been receiving so much money that my hands are sore. I have a lot of accounting books to read every month.
“I’m still so young. How can I manage so many shops? Brother is so smart. Why don’t you help me share some of the burden?!”
Qiao Xiuli’s attendant, A’Zhong, heard this from the side.
He immediately smiled and teased, “Your Highness, why don’t you get Young Master to quickly find you a sister-in-law? This way, there’ll be someone to help you take care of the accounts!”
Gu Nuo’er’s round eyes immediately revealed a look of realization.
“That’s right!”
Qiao Xiuli frowned slightly and reprimanded, “A’Zhong, don’t spout nonsense!”
A’Zhong wasn’t afraid of being scolded. He stuck out his tongue and shrunk his neck, pretending to be innocent.
The siblings were walking on the street when someone suddenly lowered his head and suddenly knocked past Gu Nuo’er and Qiao Xiuli, running away quickly.
Gu Nuo’er almost fell.
She turned around and pouted unhappily. “Why aren’t you looking where you’re going?!”
Qiao Xiuli saw that the person was in a hurry and like he was fleeing.
He frowned and felt that something was wrong. He reached out to touch it.
As expected, the jade pendant at his waist was gone.
“It’s a thief.’
Gu Nuo’er opened her eyes wide and placed her hands on her hips.
“You little thief, you’ve stolen your way to Nuo’er. If I don’t catch you and tie you up today, you won’t know the owner of this street has the surname Nuo!”
After saying that, the child rolled up her sleeves aggressively and chased after him.
Qiao Xiuli called out anxiously, “Nuo’er!”
