Chapter 62: Chapter 62 Scapegoat

Song Yanqing and Qin Shuyang left, and Xiang Qin was noticeably distracted.

"Do you know them?" Ye Qichi asked.

Xiang Qin snapped back to reality, shook her head with a smile, and said, "No."

Ye Qichi didn’t expose her; instead, she leaned closer to Xiang Qin’s ear and whispered.

Xiang Qin nodded with a smile.

She quickly got up to get more Essential Oil for Ye Qichi.

When handing it to Ye Qichi, her smile was meaningful.

Ye Qichi was somewhat speechless.

These people from the ancient times were not simple at all.

Ye Qichi did not stay long in the brothel; after completing the transaction for the Essential Oil, she left with Gu Xingchuan.

"Young Master." As the two walked on the bustling streets of Xun City, Ye Qichi took the initiative to speak.

"Miss Ye can just call me Xingchuan."

"Alright." Ye Qichi didn’t refuse, and went straight to the point, "If Xiang Qin comes looking for you, please have someone send a message to me."

Gu Xingchuan was a bit surprised, not understanding what had transpired between Ye Qichi and Xiang Qin.

However, from their few encounters, he didn’t think that Ye Qichi visited the brothel just for pleasure!

"It’s a trouble." Ye Qichi didn’t explain further.

"Alright." Gu Xingchuan didn’t ask any more questions.

The two of them returned to the medical clinic.

Lu You was almost frantic at the medical clinic, and when she saw the Princess returning in men’s clothing, she knew she must have been visiting the brothel again.

She really couldn’t understand why the Princess had taken a liking to such a vulgar place.

"Miss, where have you been?!" Lu You approached, her eyes red.

"Let’s go, we can return to the mansion now."

"You should change your clothes first, the Prince will get angry if he sees you like this."

Ye Qichi looked at her clothes and nodded.

She didn’t want to get into another fight with the dog of a Prince either.

After changing her clothes, she followed Lu You into the carriage.

Gu Xingchuan watched them leave from the entrance of the medical clinic.

Who knows when the next meeting will be?!

...

Ye Qichi and Lu You returned to the Prince’s mansion.

It was still early, even earlier than usual.

When she walked into Wan Courtyard, she saw Xiao Jinxing in the yard, trying to walk again.

This guy, really so impatient.

He fell down like a dog eating excrement this morning; hasn’t he learned his lesson?!

She just stood to the side watching Xiao Jinxing walking with much difficulty.

Feeling the presence of Ye Qichi’s return, he didn’t look directly at her but kept walking back and forth in the yard on his own.

Walking very slowly.

But it was obviously much better than this morning.

His recovery was also much better than what Ye Qichi had expected.

After watching for a while, she felt there was not much interest and turned around to go into the house to rest for a bit.

Just passing by Xiao Jinxing.

Xiao Jinxing suddenly grabbed hold of Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi was taken aback.

Clearly, he was unstable and sought support from her.

But for her, it was an unexpected occurrence, let alone such a big man as Xiao Jinxing leaning on her, and so heavy, Ye Qichi couldn’t keep steady, and the two of them tumbled to the ground with a thud.

"Ah!" Ye Qichi yelled out loud.

It was so painful she almost cried.

"Prince!" Xiao Wu, who was nearby, hurriedly stepped forward in just a couple of strides.

"It’s nothing." Xiao Jinxing was on top of Ye Qichi, and he indifferently said.

F*ck.

You are fine, but I have a problem!

My bones are about to break.

Xiao Wu helped Xiao Jinxing stand up.

By this time, Lu You also hurried over to help Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi really suspected that Xiao Jinxing, this son of a bitch, was deliberately taking revenge on her.

Otherwise, he would not have fallen at any time but just when she was passing by.

Otherwise, he could have fallen anywhere but into her arms!

Motherfucker!

She really wanted to swear.

"Who?!" Xiao Wu’s eyes suddenly sharpened.

Xiao Jinxing’s expression changed drastically in an instant.

Ye Qichi stared in gaping disbelief as Xiao Wu leaped into the air, soaring over the high wall and flipping right over it.

Then very quickly.

Xiao Wu dragged someone into the courtyard.

Ye Qichi frowned.

Why is the nanny here?!

Right now, the nanny, dragged along by Xiao Wu, was also frightened, hastily saying, "This servant saw nothing, saw nothing at all!"

In her panic, her body trembled uncontrollably.

So.

The nanny saw Xiao Jinxing walking!

Clearly, it was ordered that no other person should enter the courtyard at this moment.

The nanny’s behavior was either treacherous or thievery.

Xiao Jinxing shot a glance at Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu understood immediately.

He drew the long sword he carried with him.

Seeing Xiao Wu’s action, the nanny turned pale with fear, "This servant truly saw nothing, Prince, please spare my life, spare my life!"

Xiao Jinxing was unmoved.

His face bore a blood-cold and sinister terror.

"As the servant of the Empress, if you kill me, the Empress will surely hold it against you, Prince you cannot kill me..." the nanny begged for mercy while loudly threatening.

Xiao Jinxing’s face grew even more merciless.

It was precisely because she belonged to the Empress that he must exterminate her completely.

"Ah!" The nanny screamed in terror.

At that moment, she only felt a sharp pain in her neck, blood spattering everywhere.

Her eyes widened as she stared bitterly at Xiao Jinxing before her, dying with open eyes.

Lu You was scared to death by Xiao Wu’s act of killing right in front of her.

She hurriedly closed her eyes, not daring to watch the scene of the nanny’s death.

Although not as exaggerated as Lu You, Ye Qichi still felt fear at the sight before her.

She had almost forgotten how ruthless and brutal Xiao Jinxing could be.

Apart from Bai Mowan, he had no feelings for anyone else.

Killing the nanny was like chopping a cabbage for him, quick and ruthless.

Ye Qichi’s throat contracted as she struggled to control her emotions.

The air was thick with the smell of blood.

The silence of the space.

Xiao Jinxing suddenly spoke, "Xiao Wu, send a message to the palace, saying that the nanny committed an act of disrespect and angered the Princess, who, in a fit of rage, executed the nanny!"

As he spoke.

Xiao Wu visibly froze.

He looked at Xiao Jinxing as if seeking confirmation.

"What are you waiting for?!" Xiao Jinxing commanded in a cold voice.

Xiao Wu dared not refuse and quickly responded respectfully, "Yes!"

Then he left swiftly.

After leaving.

Xiao Jinxing shuffled his slow steps calmly towards his wheelchair.

As he passed by Ye Qichi.

"Xiao Jinxing, is this how you repay me?!" Ye Qichi asked him.

Her voice was somewhat cold and sarcastic.

Indeed.

The nanny belonged to the Empress.

And those who belong to the Empress cannot simply be killed.

Once killed, someone has to take the blame.

Xiao Jinxing just like that, matter-of-factly, tossed this hot potato to her.

Without a hint of guilt in his heart.

In fact.

Xiao Jinxing was never a good person.

It was just that his interests haven’t been touched yet.

As though he hadn’t heard a thing Ye Qichi was saying, Xiao Jinxing sat back down in his wheelchair.

He pushed the wheelchair and coldly departed.

"You promised not to kill me!" Ye Qichi shouted at his retreating figure, questioning him, "One must not break their word!"

"The Empress will not kill you," Xiao Jinxing replied coldly.

"But she will not let me off either!" Ye Qichi raged.

No matter how calm she tried to be, at this moment she couldn’t stay calm.

Right now, she really wanted to tear this son of a turtle Xiao Jinxing into seven or eight pieces and feed them all to the dogs, piece by piece!
