“Come in!”
Hearing the man’s low voice, Gu Meng pushed the door open and went in.
The lights in the study were not turned on and the man was sitting in front of the desk, facing his laptop.
He had a pair of rimless glasses on his well-defined nose, weakening the sharpness of his facial features and making him look more elegant and refined.
But the noble and domineering aura around him did not change.
Gu Meng walked over.
Ye Qing was focused on the documents on the computer, his slender fingers knocking on the table, indicating for her to put the things down and leave.
Gu Meng put the milk on the table.
After a few seconds, Ye Qing looked up and found that it was not the butler, but Gu Meng. He took off his glasses and pressed the bridge of his nose. “You finally remembered me, hm?”
Gu Meng looked at his dark eyes that seemed to want to suck her in. She looked down. “I wanted to ask you how you plan to catch the person who shot you.”
She was not stupid. The previous time, she had heard Cen Xi mention that the person who had shot him was one of the top three killers in the world. It would not be easy to catch him!
Ye Qing’s tall body leaned against the chair and he waved at Gu Meng. “Come here.”
Gu Meng thought that he had some plan on the computer. She walked to his side and was about to look at the computer when her wrist was grabbed by him and she was pulled onto his lap.
Gu Meng exclaimed in shock.
“I haven’t touched you yet, but you’re already shouting so loudly. If the butler and servants hear you, they’ll think that I did something to you.” He spoke against her ear, his warm breath spraying into her ear, making her feel numb and itchy.
Gu Meng blushed and wanted to stand up from his lap, but he held her waist tightly, not letting go.
“Ye Qing! I haven’t agreed to be with you. Can you stop taking advantage of me?”
Looking at her red ears, his Adam’s apple bobbed and his handsome face buried into her neck. “Xiaomeng, I just want to hug you.”
They had kissed in the morning, and now, they were hugging. The next step would probably be going to the bed!
Gu Meng struggled, wanting to get up from his lap. His voice was low and hoarse. “Don’t move around. You’ll be responsible for putting out the fire if you start one.”
Gu Meng said nothing.
Seeing that she had quietened down and stopped struggling, he looked up from her neck, his narrow eyes looking at her with a dark gaze. “I got someone to find a substitute with a figure similar to yours. Then, she will disguise herself as you and lure the assassin out.”
Gu Meng bit her lip and looked at Ye Qing with her black eyes. “Are you sure it’ll be flawless? How about I lure the assassin out myself…”
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Ye Qing’s cold expression. “Don’t even think about it!”
His dark eyes were sharp and his face was tense, as if he would kill her with his own hands if she said another word.
Gu Meng was frightened by his fierce expression and she pursed her lips. “I still haven’t figured out who has a deep hatred for me to want my life. After all, it’s related to me and I want to do something!”
“Stay in the palace and I’ll find out for you.”
Gu Meng said, “I…”
“Say it again and I’ll kiss you.”
Gu Meng said, “No, I…”
He lifted her chin and leaned in, pressing his lips against hers.
He had the heart to bully her and she was trapped between the desk and his arms. He only let go of her after kissing her until she was panting.
Gu Meng’s cheeks were red and her ears were almost bleeding. She was extremely embarrassed and wanted to slap him.
Ye Qing had expected her to be angry and he grabbed her wrist.
He narrowed his depthless black eyes. “If you still have the strength, let’s do something else?”
“Do you want to die?” Originally, he could not be discharged today. He had stayed in the palace for an entire day and it had already affected the recovery of his wound, yet he still wanted to do that kind of thing. She really did not know what to say about him!
Although her words were harsh, Ye Qing could feel that she still cared about him deep down.
He hugged her tightly, burying his handsome face into her neck once more. “Xiaomeng, thank you.”
Gu Meng furrowed her eyebrows, not understanding what he was thanking her for.
But the feeling of him hugging her made her feel that he really needed and cared about her.
…
Gu Meng stayed in the palace for nearly ten days.
Actually, she was a little nervous every day, afraid that the Queen would send someone to chase her out or come and talk to her.
But she had not.
She heard from the butler that Ye Qing would be discharged today.
After Gu Meng found out about it, she went back to her room to change and put on makeup.
After she was done, she stood in front of the mirror, slightly despising herself for her actions.
She wanted to remove her makeup, but felt that it was unnecessary.
It was just makeup. She had not put it on for him.
In the afternoon, the man who had left the hospital did not return to the palace.
Gu Meng did not think too much about it and tried her best to ignore it.
When Little Gugu came back from school in the afternoon, he exclaimed in admiration when he saw Gu Meng. “Mommy, you’re so beautiful today.”
Having been praised by her son, Gu Meng’s eyes curved into crescents.
Even at dinner time, Ye Qing still hadn’t returned.
The butler asked Gu Meng and Little Gugu to eat but Gu Meng could not help asking, “Isn’t he coming back for dinner?”
“His Highness called when you were resting at noon. He said that he has a date tonight.”
Gu Meng hummed.
That night, Gu Meng sat in the living room after Little Gugu had fallen asleep. She turned on her phone and saw a news article.
[The Third Prince Having A Candlelit Dinner with His New Lover]
Gu Meng clicked on the news. She did not look at the words but the photos.
There were two photos. One was of Ye Qing coming out of the hospital, while the other was of Ye Qing entering a western restaurant. The two photos showed Ye Qing with a woman who looked similar to her.
If Ye Qing had not told her about this in advance, Gu Meng would have thought that she had a twin sister.
Three days passed.
Ye Qing had not returned to the palace, but she could see gossip about him every day.
The reports said that he doted on his new love.
The netizens resembled detectives and compared the photos of the Third Prince’s new lover with the photos of the female lead in the movie and found that the new lover and the female lead looked similar. Many people guessed that the new lover was the original person that the Third Prince’s movie’s female lead had been based off.
The netizens expressed their blessings.
Seeing the blessings of the netizens, Gu Meng had mixed feelings and was more worried about the safety of Ye Qing and that substitute.
She sent a message to Ye Qing but received no reply.
She endured this uneasy feeling for two days. When she was resting in the guest room in the afternoon, she heard the sound of a car engine downstairs.
She got off the bed and ran to the window without even putting on her shoes.
She saw Ye Qing helping a woman whose arm was full of blood get out of the car.
Gu Meng went downstairs quickly and Ye Qing helped that woman in.
When Ye Qing saw Gu Meng, he said hoarsely, “K has been caught.”
Gu Meng nodded. She looked at the woman and then at Ye Qing. “Is her injury serious? How about you? Are you hurt?”
