Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
"By the way, aren’t you supposed to leave now?" Gu Ruoyun raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Zuo Shangchen with half a smile. "Or do you need me to escort you out?"
Zuo Shangchen’s gaze was a bit sad. "Little girl, I have helped you. Is this how you treat someone who has helped you?"
"Then, what do you want?"
"Erm," Zuo Shangchen caressed his chin lightly with his finger, his body sprawled out on the lazy chair. He winked at Gu Ruoyun with a charming smile. "I don’t want much. Seeing that I have helped you just now, how about you give me a hug?"
"Alright."
Gu Ruoyun smiled. Her pretty and delicate face was generous with smiles.
Then, she paused briefly before saying, "Shopkeeper Zhao, go and give him a hug."
In an instant, Zuo Shangchen’s expression turned sour. Did this girl not know that he was a neat freak? Usually, he would not let anybody near his body, not even his servant girls. Of course, that kid Gu Shengxiao was an exception. He was joking with his previous sentence, but he did not expect her to take his word for it, and now she wanted a bad old man to hug him...
Seeing Shopkeeper Zhao walking towards him, Zuo Shangchen was disgusted and almost had goosebumps. Especially that smile on that sunflower face...in his eyes, it was as evil as the big bad wolf grinning at the little white rabbit.
At that moment, his peerless servant girls took out their long swords at the same time. They all pointed their swords at Shopkeeper Zhao who was walking towards Zuo Shangchen. Their eyes had a cold glow like the swords in their hands as if they could kill a person in an instant…
Shopkeeper Zhao hesitantly looked at Gu Ruoyun, while Gu Ruoyun’s smile grew even more prominent.
"Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, didn’t you ask for a hug? I’m giving you one, what is with this attitude of yours?"
Zuo Shangchen opened his fan and smiled. "Little girl, this time I’ll admit defeat. However, I did not expect you to still have ties to the Dongfang family. From what I gathered, the Hundred Herb Hall belonged to Dongfang Shaoze, and not long ago, Dongfang Shaoze seemed to have given Hundred Herb Hall over to another person. From the looks of it, that person is you!"
He did not leave out the part where the shopkeeper of Hundred Herb Hall answered to Gu Ruoyun.
Looks like the rumors were largely untrue. Gu Ruoyun did not join Hundred Herb Hall out of luck in obtaining Shopkeeper Zhao’s mercy, but the Hundred Herb Hall was indeed hers!
When he thought of this, Zuo Shangchen squinted slightly. He raised his lips into a smile. "You have too many secrets. I have the urge to reveal them all."
"Then, you’re bound to be disappointed," Gu Ruoyun snorted, "Shopkeeper Zhao, show our guests the way out."
When he heard Gu Ruoyun’s order for the guests to leave, Zuo Shangchen smiled lazily. "Xiao Yun’er, one day, I will dig out all your secrets."
Then, he spoke to his servant girls beside him, "Let’s go."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The servant girls held their swords in salute. They quickly lifted the soft chair up, turned and walked towards the door.
The moment they turned in the other direction, the lazy smile on Zuo Shangchen’s lips gradually disappeared. He slowly closed his eyes and went into deep thought.
Life comes from Dongfang? Could it be that the person who would change his fate was truly at Dongfang? But his Master was a reputable person; surely he would not deceive him.
When he thought of this, Zuo Shangchen’s face took on a wry smile…
"The person who would change my fate and the genius that master observed are at Dongfang. The only thing is that this Azure Dragon Country is so big. I wonder which one of these people is the one I’m looking for…"
