Prince Yu hurriedly said, “Announce to the world immediately that you are my own son, add your name to the family tree, add it to the jade butterfly! Also take him to meet the national sovereign!”
Only then did Prince Yu’s consort smile.
The two of them entered the Medical Hall.
The owner recognized the Prince Yu’s consort, and noticing that she did not bring the supercilious servant, greeted her warmly, “Madam, you’re here, this is…”
“My husband.” Prince Yu’s consort introduced gently.
The owner paid respect to the man in front of him, glanced at them, and asked, “Didn’t your son come? How is his condition? Has he improved?”
Prince Yu’s consort nodded, “He is much better, he hardly coughs anymore, he is at home. May I ask… is Miss Gu Jiao here?”
The owner replied, “Yes, she should be done with her work soon. Please wait a moment, I’ll go see.”
Gu Jiao was in Jiang Shi’s ward giving him an IV drip. When she heard the owner say that a noble lady had come, Gu Jiao had to think about which noble lady it was.
The owner explained, “Her son is ten years old and coughs severely. She and her husband came together, I guess they came to thank you as they had before.”
This wasn’t the first time such a situation had occurred, so the owner was quite calm.
Gu Jiao also thought at first that the other side wanted to express their gratitude. But when she saw them, she realised they had actually come to take someone away.
Since Prince Yu’s consort suggested finding a place where they could talk, Gu Jiao then took them to her small courtyard.
At this moment, the three of them were sitting in the Flower Hall of the courtyard and the atmosphere was terribly silent.
Prince Yu, experienced in judging people, was not a superficial person. He didn’t care about Gu Jiao’s looks.
But he felt that the aura of this young girl was somewhat different from that of her peers.
Prince Yu’s consort broke the awkward silence, “Miss Gu, I know this might sound abrupt but I sincerely hope to meet your parents and discuss the matter regarding Jingkong. We sincerely want to adopt Jingkong as our adopted son.”
Gu Jiao: “The kind that won’t take him away?”
Prince Yu’s Consort: “We..We want to take him home.”
Without even bothering to ask where they intended to take him, Gu Jiao immediately declined, “No way.”
Prince Yu’s consort turned pale: “Miss Gu…”
Gu Jiao interrupted her, “There’s nothing to discuss about this. I will not send Jingkong away. If you truly like him and he likes you, you are welcome to visit him.”
Yes, the prerequisite is that Jingkong must like them.
She would not let Jingkong be aggrieved.
“If there’s nothing else, please leave.”
Gu Jiao ordered them to leave.
Prince Yu was stunned. He didn’t speak until Gu Jiao got up to leave, then he finally asked, “Aren’t you going to ask who we are?”
Gu Jiao looked at him coldly, “No one can!”
“Miss Gu!” Prince Yu’s consort stood up abruptly. Before Prince Yu could stop her, she stepped forward and said to Gu Jiao, “Jingkong is our son! We are his parents!”
Gu Jiao paused, turned around, and retorted, “Those who abandoned him in the temple are fit to be his parents?”
Tears welled up in the eyes of Prince Yu’s consort, “It’s not what you think… Miss Gu, let me explain… I never intended to abandon him… We thought he had died prematurely…”
“Is that so?” Gu Jiao’s gaze fell on Prince Yu’s face.
This woman did not seem to be faking, but the man was composed from beginning to end.
Prince Yu calmly met Gu Jiao’s scrutiny while his wife, overwrought with emotion, passed out from lack of air.
Prince Yu swiftly caught her.
Gu Jiao took her pulse, after which she let go of her hand.
It was no big deal, she was really just too agitated and fainted.
Prince Yu, hugging his wife, looked at Gu Jiao. With the mask of kindness he had worn in front of his wife now gone, he brazenly regarded Gu Jiao. “Name your price. You’re still young and don’t know the immensity of the universe. No one in the Capital City can protect whoever I want.”
Gu Jiao: “Then you try it.”
Prince Yu glanced coldly at Gu Jiao one last time, cradling his wife as he exited the Medical Hall.
That night, Prince Yu’s close ace went to the Imperial Palace on behalf of Prince Yu to deliver a message to the emperor – the content of the negotiation was that Liang Country could make compromises on condition that they have the child.
