Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Want to See a Good Show?

The next day, when Qi Yu woke up, Li Mingjue was already gone.

She turned over in the bed and got up feeling refreshed and clear-headed.

Having a warm body sleeping next to her indeed made her sleep sweeter.

Because someone had stayed by her side last night, her mood was somewhat improved today while checking Lin Wenxuan’s pulse.

However, inappropriate images kept popping up in her mind.

Last night, Li Mingjue, provoked by her few words, became breathless and uncontrollably pinned her down and kissed her fiercely over and over again.

If before his kisses were gentle and treasured,

last night, it completely unleashed the wolf inside him, and his burning passion nearly suffocated her.

Qi Yu licked her lips, her expression somewhat nostalgic.

As she seriously checked pulses, her mind inappropriately wondered, what position should she use to tease her Prince tonight?

After yesterday’s events, Lin Wenxuan no longer dared to stare openly at people, but when Qi Yu touched his wrist, he couldn’t help but steal a few more glances.

Luckily, Qi Yu was immersed in her thoughts and didn’t bother with him.

Otherwise, she would have given him an extra dose with her silver needles.

After checking the pulse, Qi Yu informed Lin’s father and mother, "A few more doses and he should be almost well, he can get out of bed today."

Hearing this, Lin Wenxuan was overjoyed; he had suddenly fainted a few days ago and had been weak, confined to his bed.

After consulting numerous famous doctors to no avail, he had almost thought he would never recover.

But unexpectedly, after taking the medicine for just under two days, he felt almost well and regained strength.

Lin’s father and mother were naturally delighted, but Lin’s mother was still a bit worried and asked, "Is he really all better?"

Qi Yu nodded slightly, looking at Lin Wenxuan’s boundlessly joyous face, and added lightly, "Although much improved, his vital energy has not fully recovered. It’s better for Young Master Lin not to visit places of indulgence for now."

This remark made Lin Wenxuan’s smile freeze, feeling as if he had been stripped bare.

Lin’s father and mother, a bit embarrassed, turned away and stiffly agreed, "The Divine Doctor is right."

Qi Yu, not caring about their displeased expressions, wrote out the prescription and mentioned she had to leave for a bit.

Upon hearing this, Lin Wenxuan became anxious, "Where does the Divine Doctor plan to go?"

His body had not fully recovered yet, and if the Divine Doctor left, whom would he turn to?

Lin’s father and mother clearly shared his concerns, all eyes eagerly on Qi Yu.

Qi Yu slightly curled her lips, "Don’t worry, I’ll come back."

With that, she got up.

Seeing this, although unsatisfied, Lin’s mother couldn’t blatantly stop her, so she signaled to a servant with her eyes to follow her closely.

The servant nodded and quietly followed.

Lin Wenxuan also caused a fuss about going out. Though his parents initially disagreed, he was so adamant that they couldn’t refuse him and let him go.

Before leaving, they repeatedly cautioned, "Don’t go to any unclean places."

Lin Wenxuan, annoyed to no end, responded impatiently.

Once outside, he was like a bird freed from its cage, calling friends to his usual haunt, the tavern.

Qi Yu sat in an adjoining booth, listening to his outrageous boasts.

Lin Wenxuan insisted that his illness was caused by the arduousness of his studies.

The others, aware of his true character, didn’t burst his bubble and exchanged glances before echoing, "Brother Lin’s diligence makes us feel ashamed indeed."

They fundamentally despised Lin Wenxuan, but since the Lin family was wealthy and Lin Wenxuan spent generously, they benefitted by hanging around him, even enjoying discounts at the Lin family’s snack shop.

Only Lin Wenxuan was foolish enough to think it was his personal charm that made so many people willing to follow him.

From the booth came frequent sounds of praise, which almost made Qi Yu vomit.

Opposite her, Zhou Lanting was initially somewhat annoyed, but seeing her look of disgust, he inexplicably felt like laughing.

He lowered his voice and asked softly, "Princess, has Lin Wenxuan revealed anything?"

Qi Yu took a sip of tea before replying unhurriedly, "No, I asked him a few questions yesterday, and from what he said, he was unaware of the escape from the marriage."

"Then... could it be that my cousin really escaped the marriage?" Zhou Lanting said with a hesitant expression.

Qi Yu did not respond to his words.

Her expression grew solemn as she thought, if it wasn’t Lin Wenxuan who orchestrated it, then who could it be?

Before they could figure it out, a commotion had already erupted from Lin Wenxuan’s side.

Qi Yu quickly collected herself and listened carefully, only to realize that someone drunk had brought up the subject of escaping the marriage, causing Lin Wenxuan to fly into a rage on the spot. Both men, overwhelmed by the alcohol, actually started fighting.

The noise alarmed the owner of the building, and a group of people hurried over to break up the fight, barely managing to separate the two.

Lin Wenxuan was still fuming and cursed, "Whoever dares mention that wench in front of me should be prepared to be beaten by this young master!"

These words truly crossed the line, and those who usually flattered Lin Wenxuan all changed their expressions.

Zhou Lanting felt his blood rush to his head, wishing he could rush over and give Lin Wenxuan a beating.

Qi Yu quickly grabbed him, "Calm down!"

Zhou Lanting’s chest heaved as he gritted his teeth and glared towards the other side of the screen.

The commotion on the other side lasted for a while before gradually quieting down.

Qi Yu went to the window, and saw Lin Wenxuan and his group of fair-weather friends exiting the building, heading westward.

As she watched closely, she tugged at the corner of her mouth, wasn’t that the direction of Manchun Building?

Before leaving home, she had warned Lin Wenxuan not to go to such places, since his health was not yet fully recovered, going there was akin to courting death.

But if Lin Wenxuan wouldn’t listen, there was nothing she could do.

Zhou Lanting clearly also realized where Lin Wenxuan was headed, his hands clenched into fists, and he struck the wooden window frame.

Qi Yu looked at him with a smile that was not quite a smile and said meaningfully, "Doesn’t it hurt?"

Zhou Lanting muttered a muffled "No."

At that moment, his heart was in so much pain that a little physical pain meant nothing to him.

He couldn’t fathom what the Su Family was thinking to want to marry their daughter to such a beast.

Seeing his distress, Qi Yu comforted him a few words, "Now that things have come to this, finding the person is the priority."

Zhou Lanting reluctantly nodded his head.

Qi Yu watched as Lin Wenxuan and his entourage entered Manchun Building, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes.

She covered her mouth with a laugh, turned, and said to a displeased Zhou Lanting, "Would you like to see how this drama plays out?"

"Drama?" Zhou Lanting was puzzled.

Qi Yu stretched out her hand pointing in the direction of Manchun Building, and Zhou Lanting’s eyes widened in surprise, "You can’t possibly mean to?"

"Yes, I’m going to Manchun Building!" Qi Yu gave him a definitive answer.

Zhou Lanting stared blankly for a moment, then seeing her turning to leave, he quickly followed.

Along the way, he kept anxiously saying, "Princess, it’s not suitable for you to go to such a place!"

Qi Yu ignored him and continued towards Manchun Building.

Zhou Lanting, unable to dissuade her, could only shake his head with a sigh and follow along.

Inwardly, he worried, if the Prince found out about this, he’d be skinned alive.

Neither of them noticed Shiqi hiding in the shadows, his eyes watching as Qi Yu entered Manchun Building, the corner of his mouth twitching.

Should he report this to the Prince?

Or should he report this to the Prince?

It seemed he had no choice, Shiqi stroked his chin thoughtfully, then turned and headed in another direction.
