Chapter 843: Chapter 844: Stay by My Side More

Upon hearing Gong Juechen claim he was confident in curing the ailment, Su Chengjin was instantly overjoyed.

However, An Jing found it amusing to see Gong Juechen’s change of face and his particularly respectful manner towards Su Chengjin. Her husband was Prince Yi, whose status was immeasurably higher than Su Chengjin’s, and he was aware of this fact, yet he still showed no respect towards her husband at all, which was really...

Could it be because they were too familiar with each other?

As for Gong Juechen’s ’capricious’ behavior, Xiao Changyi acted as if he hadn’t seen anything, still standing expressionless by An Jing’s side.

Even though Su Chengjin seldom went out, he had heard quite a bit about Xiao Changyi and knew that Xiao Changyi always preferred not to engage with people. Therefore, as for Xiao Changyi coming over yet saying nothing and standing there expressionless, it added pressure to him but he didn’t find it strange at all.

With Prince Yi, Xiao Changyi, present, and considering Gong Juechen would not reveal he had been poisoned if he intended him harm, Su Chengjin felt especially reassured and said to Gong Juechen, "Then please administer the antidote to this prince swiftly."

Gong Juechen said, "The poison in the Fifth Prince’s body cannot be neutralized by me immediately. I must prepare some antidotes first before I can administer them to the Fifth Prince."

Su Chengjin asked, "What needs to be prepared?"

Gong Juechen replied, "I shall draft a list; the Fifth Prince just needs to have someone prepare the items according to the list."

However, Su Chengjin hesitated, "This..." His trust had been betrayed by his own personal Serverfly, which made him particularly distrustful of the people in his Prince’s mansion, so he did not dare to let anyone prepare the items Gong Juechen required.

Noticing Su Chengjin’s hesitation, Gong Juechen said, "Fifth Prince, just let your people go and prepare with confidence. When it comes time to use them on you, every item will pass through my hands. If there is anything improper, I will be able to detect it."

Upon hearing this, Su Chengjin immediately relaxed his frown and smiled, "Then I’ll be much obliged to the palace doctor."

Gong Juechen respectfully said, "No trouble at all, no trouble at all. The Fifth Prince has a clear and handsome appearance which is very pleasing; it’s my pleasure to help."

Su Chengjin: "..."

Su Chengjin thought Gong Juechen’s behavior was frivolous and was quite angry, just about to explode, when he heard An Jing explain to him, "He only treats those who are good-looking; for the ones who are not, he would not treat them even if they killed him."

After explaining to Su Chengjin, An Jing turned to Gong Juechen with annoyance and said, "Sooner or later, your life will be lost because of that mouth of yours!"

Gong Juechen immediately gave An Jing a playful smile, "That’s why, Jingjing, you and Changyi should stay by my side more often, to give me pointers and protect me, so I can turn danger into safety."

An Jing turned her head away, too lazy to bother with Gong Juechen any longer.

Gong Juechen wasn’t annoyed but went to the table to draft the list. As he passed by Xiao Changyi, he smiled and patted his shoulder, behaving like he had a particularly good relationship with Xiao Changyi.

Seeing Gong Juechen like this, An Jing didn’t even want to make any sarcastic comments.

But Su Chengjin was alarmed. He believed that not only were Gong Juechen, Xiao Changyi, and An Jing acquaintances, but their relationship was also particularly close. If he were to offend Gong Juechen in the future and wanted to deal with him, he would have to weigh his options carefully. He definitely did not want to offend Prince Yi by dealing with Gong Juechen.

An Jing and Xiao Changyi didn’t wait for Gong Juechen to finish drafting the list and were ready to go home.

After all, standing here and merely watching was less useful than attending to their own matters at home.

However, as soon as An Jing told Su Chengjin that they were leaving, Gong Juechen immediately dropped his brush and paper, and rushed to prevent An Jing and Xiao Changyi from leaving.
