The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

And once the Imperial Physician had left.

These past days, it has been Gu Xingchuan tending to her medical treatment?!

Gu Xingchuan's knowledge of medical skills, of course, he knew.

But with Ye Qichi's injuries so severe and so many wounds... how did Gu Xingchuan treat them?!

Xiao Jinxing suppressed the emotions in his heart.

Many things, he no longer wanted to think further about.

He said coldly, "Come out with me."

"Yes."

Xiao Jinxing glanced once at the sleeping Ye Qichi and strode out.

Gu Xingchuan also looked at the sleeping Ye Qichi, before following Xiao Jinxing out.

After the two had departed.

Ye Qichi opened her eyes.

As soon as Xiao Jinxing and Gu Xingchuan started talking, she had awoken.

But truly not wanting to see Xiao Jinxing, she had deliberately feigned sleep.

Yet if Xiao Jinxing were to do something to Gu Xingchuan... She felt that she should not turn a blind eye.

Therefore, at this moment.

She did not sleep anymore.

Just lying on the bed, listening for any sound that might come from outside the door.

Outside the door.

Xiao Jinxing looked at Gu Xingchuan.

Gu Xingchuan was looking down slightly, showing great respect.

Such demeanor, yet without a trace of guilt, as if being caught accompanying Ye Qichi, did not find it inappropriate, nor felt any need to explain to Xiao Jinxing.

A long silence fell between the two men.

Xiao Jinxing finally spoke, "How is her body doing now?"

After all.

Xiao Jinxing did not pursue further questions.

He just wanted to understand Ye Qichi's condition.

"Reporting to the Prince," Gu Xingchuan remained respectful, "The Princess's injuries have been healing quickly, but due to the numerous wounds and healing faster than ordinary people, there is internal disorder, causing her to be feverish. However, tonight, her condition has improved a lot, and she could sleep normally tonight."

"Have you been accompanying the Princess all this time?"

"Subordinate has some knowledge of medical skills, after the Imperial Physician left, it has been subordinate treating the Princess's injuries."

Xiao Jinxing's eyes tightened slightly.

Fists unconsciously clenched tight.

Medical treatment...

How did he treat her?!

Did he also see Ye Qichi's body?!

Words reached Xiao Jinxing's lips, but then were swallowed back down.

He said, "It seems tonight, the Princess's injuries are stable?"

"Mostly stable," Gu Xingchuan nodded.

"Then it is getting late, you may leave now," Xiao Jinxing said indifferently.

Gu Xingchuan couldn't help but look up at Xiao Jinxing.

Xiao Jinxing said again, "These past days, you have been substituting for me in accompanying the Princess, you have worked hard. Go back and rest."

Gu Xingchuan naturally knew.

Xiao Jinxing was not thanking him but driving him away.

But he.

Wanted to stay by Ye Qichi's side even more.

These past days, the pain Ye Qichi endured, he truly did not feel at ease entrusting her to anyone else.

Even if it was the Prince.

Xiao Jinxing dropped a remark, without needing Gu Xingchuan's agreement, turned around and directly intended to return to Ye Qichi's room.

"Prince," Gu Xingchuan suddenly called out to him.

Xiao Jinxing paused in his steps.

"The Princess's injuries have merely stabilized but are not yet fully healed. I kindly ask the Prince to treat the Princess well," Gu Xingchuan boldly spoke.

"My Princess, I will surely treat well," Xiao Jinxing replied coldly.

"If the Prince holds no affection for the Princess, please let her go sooner rather than later..."

"Gu Xingchuan!" Xiao Jinxing turned around, his face dark with anger, "Mind your status before speaking. The affairs between me and the Princess, how could you be so presumptuous?"

"Subordinate dares not speak out of turn about the Prince and Princess's affairs, I only wish to inform the Prince, if one day you truly abandon the Princess, there will be someone waiting for her, waiting forever. When that time comes, I hope the Prince does not regret it," Gu Xingchuan articulated each word clearly.

That was an outright affront.

Xiao Jinxing's expression turned exceedingly grim.

Gu Xingchuan knew he had angered him.

Yet he did not show weakness.

"Subordinate will take his leave first, and will return tomorrow to provide medical treatment for the Princess," he said respectfully.

Then he rose and left.

So he walked passed Xiao Jinxing, boldly and openly.

Xiao Jinxing watched Gu Xingchuan's receding white figure.

He truly believed that this Prince did not dare to kill him, didn't he?!

Xiao Wu was already waiting at the door.

Normally, he always thought of Gu Xingchuan as gentle and refined, with an overflowing talent and a mild character. Little did he know, Gu Xingchuan could actually be so unbending with the Prince, which really surprised Xiao Wu.

Although somewhat unkind.

But in his heart, he felt immensely satisfied at this moment.

Finally, someone stood up for the Princess.

Finally, someone voiced his thoughts.

He also thought, if the Prince ever abandoned the Princess, the one regretting would be the Prince.

He felt inexplicably relieved.

Feeling an intimidating gaze, Xiao Wu quickly showed immense respect.

Xiao Jinxing strode back into Ye Qichi's room with a flick of his sleeve.

Behind the screen.

Ye Qichi had her eyes closed, continuing to sleep.

She had just overheard Gu Xingchuan and Xiao Jinxing's conversation.

Luckily now, Xiao Jinxing was desperate for talent.

Otherwise, Gu Xingchuan might have been killed by Xiao Jinxing's madness.

She pretended to continue sleeping.

"Stop pretending." Xiao Jinxing's low, cold voice sounded.

Ye Qichi was somewhat irritable.

So when did Xiao Jinxing realize she was awake?

"From the start." Xiao Jinxing stated straightforwardly, seeming to see through Ye Qichi's thoughts, "From the moment I walked beside your bed, I knew you were awake."

Meaning.

Don't pretend with me.

Ye Qichi pursed her lips slightly.

Then she opened her eyes and looked at Xiao Jinxing.

Not seeing him for seven days.

She really didn't want to see him at all.

He really should have, not come back.

Coming back, he truly should not have seen her.

Seeing her, probably there won't be anything good happening.

She just looked at Xiao Jinxing indifferently, her voice extremely cold, "Has the Prince come to see if I am dead?"
