After Kicking Over the Scumbag, the Whole City Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 250

Seeing Huian step forward, Zhang Mo finally understood everything.

These people were clearly not ordinary people looking for relatives. When Ning Chang'an emphasized it to him earlier, he still did not believe it. But now, he had truly and thoroughly slapped his own face!

Eighty military rods!

This was equivalent to taking his life!

He swallowed his saliva, trembling with fear as his face turned pale. "Prince, spare my life! This subordinate did not know she was the Prince's woman! This subordinate truly knows his wrongs now!"

"Admitting your mistakes now is too late," Zhao Changdu said coldly, his deep eyes brimming with gloomy fury. "Do not let him die. This Prince wants him to wish he was dead."

Huian clenched his fists tightly as he gritted his teeth. "Yes!"

After speaking, Zhao Changdu carried Gu Ying and strode out of Zhang Mo's tent with large steps.

Returning to his own large tent, the woman in his arms still had not moved.

He knew in his heart that for her, a young girl who had come so far to find him, and encountered this kind of thing, must be very fearful and panicking in her heart.

Thus, his brows and eyes softened somewhat as he held her in his embrace, rubbing her delicate cheeks with his large hand as he called her name.

"Ah Ying..."

"Ah Ying, I'm sorry, I came back late."

"Ah Ying, how are you now?"

Gu Ying still did not open her eyes. Her brows were tightly furrowed and her cheeks were slightly flushed with an unhealthy red. Her body, drenched in sweat, finally relaxed slightly when she hazily saw the handsome face magnifying before her eyes.

Seeing the familiar tall bridge of his nose and his slender and beautiful phoenix eyes, the rigidness of her body eased somewhat.

But as soon as she relaxed, she felt even more painful spasms churning in her stomach.

"Blegh—"

She could not hold it back and sat up from his embrace, retching to one side.

Zhao Changdu put his arm around her slender waist, frowning as he patted her back. "Come, go get Shen Ruxu!"

Someone outside responded, "Yes!"

Gu Ying's mind was buzzing and she felt very dizzy. She did not throw up anything besides some sour liquid, but her throat still felt nauseous which did not allow her to feel better.

Zhao Changdu brought over a bowl of hot tea for her to rinse her mouth before she finally eased up a little, weakly lying back into the man's embrace.

Zhao Changdu's eyes were full of distress. "What happened?"

Gu Ying was resentful in her heart. Her face was cold as she refused to look at him, her voice hoarse. "I want Yinlan..."

This estranged attitude made the man's brows furrow tightly, but he still chose to satisfy her request. "Alright."

As he spoke, he sent someone to find Yinlan.

Soon after, Yinlan ran into the large tent looking disheveled and miserable.

When Gu Ying saw her, her eyes instantly grew hot as tears fell. "Yinlan, it hurts..."

Zhao Changdu's brows were tightly furrowed, his piercing gaze fixed on the young girl.

"My Lady, don't worry." Yinlan no longer had the mind to greet the man. She ran directly to Gu Ying's side, took out a medicinal pill from her bosom and anxiously fed it into her mouth.

After feeding her the medicine, Yinlan's eyes were also red. She knelt back down again. "My Prince, my Lady is unwell. This slave brought medicine from Yueyang City. Please, My Prince, allow this slave to go concoct medicine now..."

Zhao Changdu's brows had been continuously furrowed. "What are you still waiting for, go quickly!"

Yinlan wiped away a tear and ran out.

Gu Ying's eyes were bloodshot and misty. Hot air swelled up, clogging her nose, making her uncontrollably want to shed tears.

She closed her eyes, forcibly pushing the tears back. Her clear and bright eyes were moist, seemingly like the hazily shimmering spring waters, making people's hearts ache when looking at them.

Although she did not say anything, there was still resentment in her heart. When she had not seen him, she could still deceive herself. But upon seeing him, the discomfort and anguish in her heart still could not be concealed.

She was unwilling to stay in his embrace. Supporting herself, she left his embrace and sat hunched at the edge of the couch.

She looked like a stray little cat, extremely pitiful.

No matter how dense Zhao Changdu was, he could still sense that something was off. He forcefully extended his large hand to grab her wrist, pulling her back into his embrace with a strong tug. "What's this, after not seeing me for a month, you dislike me this much now?"

Gu Ying endured the discomfort in her body, her lips pale white. She raised her eyes calmly to meet the anger in his eyes. "No."

Zhao Changdu felt the fiery anger churning in his heart. He was about to stubbornly question the young girl when Shen Ruxu came in.

She was also not well. On the way back, she had met someone called Huian.

The Prince had urgently raced back on horseback all the way, while she, with her weaker female physique compared to these strong and robust men, had bounced the whole way back. She was still wearing those rain-drenched clothes after getting drenched by the rain and wind. Her hair was in disarray after being drenched by the rainwater.

Now, she walked into the large tent shivering pitifully, her teeth chattering. She had originally wanted the Prince to see her like this and feel more pity for her.

But when she saw Gu Ying, her entire body stiffened in place.

She had not expected Gu Ying to arrive so quickly.

What about the child in her belly?

Judging from her pale complexion, had she already lost the child?

Gu Ying also saw her. Stubbornly struggling to sit up, the corners of her lips pulled up with an inexplicable expression. "Miss Shen, we meet again."

Shen Ruxu's heart shuddered as she raised her eyes to meet Gu Ying's scrutinizing gaze. "Miss Gu..."

Gu Ying roughly guessed Shen Ruxu's identity. Now, she only felt extremely mocking in her heart. She looked at Shen Ruxu, then at the handsome man sitting by her side, smiling palely. "My Prince, there is nothing majorly wrong with me. I do not need Miss Shen to take my pulse. If there is nothing else, I shall take my leave first."

The man's gaze condensed as he held her back. "Ah Ying, don't be willful."

Gu Ying said expressionlessly. "I am not being willful."

She simply did not trust Shen Ruxu, and also felt that she no longer had any need to stay, since her presence was an eyesore. She might as well just leave cleanly.

Zhao Changdu did not know what temper she was throwing. His face did not look good. "If you're not being willful, then obediently let Doctor Shen take your pulse."

"I, don't, want to," Gu Ying pronounced each word clearly for the first time when speaking to the Prince. After speaking, her eyes grew wet with tears that slid across her eyelashes. Her eyes seemed to shimmer like the hazily glistening spring waters, making people's hearts ache when looking at them.

Seeing her cry, Zhao Changdu felt a surge of irritation well up in his heart. "Just what kind of temper are you throwing? Where has the generous and sensible Ah Ying of the past gone?"

Gu Ying's pupils shrank. She was originally emotionally sensitive. Hearing these words now... she only felt extremely desolate, as if having lost something important.

That's right... her original disposition was perceptive and gentle. It was only because she cared too much about him and cared about what he had going on with other women. That's why she had become so petty and ugly, like a pathetic clown.

Let alone him, even she did not like herself this way.

Back then, wasn't it because she was jealous and aggressively competitive like this which made Jiang Yin disgusted with her?

Thinking of this, her heart only felt more desolate.
