Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 97: What to Do

At this moment, Gu Chaoyan was drinking the tea, frowning.

In front of her was Lu Jiming who kept nagging.

Lu Jiming simply could not notice that Chaoyan was displeased. He assumed that Gu Chaoyan liked him a great deal and that she would be glad to be able to speak with him. So he asked straightforwardly, “Chaoyan, when did you befriend Lord Huai?”

“...”

“Chaoyan, are you still angry with me?”

“...”

“Alright, I misunderstood you before, but don’t be narrow-minded and take it as a big deal.” Lu Jiming got impatient seeing that she stayed silent.

Gu Ruxue, who was not faraway, snorted. “So what you know is just some medical knowledge. Don’t you dare humiliate us when you are performing later.”

She had never expected that the Prince would one day try to console the ugly girl. What was good about this ugly girl anyway? However, she could not do anything here at Biquan Palace anyway.

Seeing Gu Ruxue getting pissed, Lu Jiming got concerned.

He walked away from Gu Chaoyan and consoled Gu Ruxue with a small voice, “Ruxue, don’t get mad. I only adore you. The ugly girl is now a friend of Lord Huai’s, so she is going to be practical for Duke Changning’s Mansion! I am consoling her so that she can marry me as a concubine, but she is never going to be a threat to you. You are going to be Princess Consort, and you can do anything to her! And, isn’t it good for you too, if she can benefit us at Duke Changning’s Mansion.”

Hearing those words, Gu Ruxue felt assured and showed a slight smile.

That was the case. She knew that Jiming only adored her.

She would not have liked it if Chaoyan was marrying the Prince. However, after hearing what the Prince said, she found it a very beneficial thing for them all. Gu Chaoyan thought that she was capable, did she? Okay then, she was going to see how much further her daydream of marrying an extraordinary man would go when she came to Duke Changning’s Mansion, where she was going to be in full control.

As Gu Ruxue thought of these, she again showed pride. Then she threw a look into Gu Chaoyan’s direction.

However... The seat was empty.

Gu Ruxue looked about and did not see Gu Chaoyan within sight. So she asked her mother, “Mom, where is Gu Chaoyan?”

Mrs. Gu was confused too. “Princess Gu was asking for her, so she went away with Madam Gu’s maid.”

It used to be Ruxue who got to speak with Madam Gu and Princess Gu, but now, Chaoyan became the only one to join the conversation.

Cai Ming did not even want to bring Ruxue with her.

How annoying! What was wrong with that ugly woman!

“I am going to check it out!” Unconvinced, Gu Ruxue was about to leave, but Mrs. Gu gripped her instead. Without Madame Gu’s order, she did not dare to release Ruxue. They were in the court, not some casual place.

“Just continue to talk with the Prince, leave yourself out of the mess over there,” Mrs. Gu said.

Gu Ruxue stomped her feet, giving up the thought.

“Mom, I have got one more thing to tell you.” Gu Ruxue suddenly thought of something.
