"So, my mother already knows? It's strange that Jiang Ruobai didn't hide it from her." Jiang Ning said to herself.

"You can just take care of me with peace of mind. You don't need to ask anything else." Li Hongyuan paused for a while and suddenly said coldly, "Jiang Ning, this is the last time."

"What?" Jiang Ning heard his unusual tone and glanced at him subconsciously, and found that his face was very ugly.

Li Hongyuan said in a deep voice: "If you make such a significant move without consulting me next time, I will never forgive you."

Jiang Ning sneered and didn't make any excuses.

Li Hongyuan was silent for a while and then said: "I don't mind you plotting against me, but... at least you have to ensure your own safety. I have other things to do, so I'm leaving."

Before Jiang Ning could speak, he turned and left.

Jiang Ning stood up and said behind him: "You have to believe me, I will never harm you. We have a community of interests!"

Li Hongyuan didn't even look back.

Jiang Ning lay back, closed her eyes, and suddenly opened them again. She called Huang Ying and said, "Call Gucheng."

"Yes, Master."

Huang Ying quickly led Gucheng in.

Gucheng or a dark cloak made his face look pale and thin.

"Are you feeling better?" Jiang Ning asked him.

"Okay." Gucheng nodded, "Where is Miss Seven?"

"I'm fine, just a little skin injury." Jiang Ning frowned and looked at him, "Didn't I tell you to take good care of yourself and not come out casually? Why are you disobedient?"

Gucheng said calmly: "Because Miss Seven is dangerous."

"Did Li Hongyuan tell you?"

"……Um."

"You just trust him so much?" Jiang Ning said angrily, "He is just using you. He is a prince, what kind of masters don't have around him? Do you still have to let you, a patient, kill people?"

Gucheng pursed his lips and said nothing.

No matter how many masters the prince had around him, at that moment, when he saw the seventh lady being bullied, he just wanted to kill the bastard himself.

Jiang Ning sighed: "Now, tell me what kind of punishment Gu Feng will receive."

Gucheng immediately said: "He should bear it."

Jiang Ning sat up angrily: "Are you trying to make me unable to eat and sleep? Gu Feng did nothing wrong at all. He obeyed my orders and was injured for me. I don't care what your shadow guards have. Rules, if you don’t tell me, I will go back to find Jiang Mubai now!”

She said as she lifted the blanket to get out of bed.

Huang Ying was extremely anxious and quickly stopped her: "Master, you have an injury on your head. The imperial doctor has told you that you must not get out of bed for the past three days and must rest. Otherwise, the root of the disease will be left behind and you will have headaches from time to time!"

She scolded Gucheng again: "After all, Lone Ying and you are partners, so you don't want to help him?"

Gucheng was unmoved: "He didn't protect Miss Seven, and he deserves it."

Jiang Ning: "..."

She finally figured out why her uncle wanted Gucheng to be the leader of the Shadow Guard. It was not only because of his high talent and strong martial arts. What's more, because of his temperament, he accepts death as his own.

Jiang Ning covered her head and lay back, waving weakly: "Gucheng, you go back to recuperate first."

Gucheng stood still and said slowly: "I will wear more clothes so that I won't get sick again. I don't have to come back to Gufeng in the future."

Jiang Ning looked at him.

Gucheng lowered his head slightly, turned around and walked out.

Huang Ying was helpless: "This kid is really stubborn."
