Chapter 1702: 1702: You Ruined My Good Thing!
“This damn woman, she is just too… hateful!”
He cradled his forehead with one hand, feeling as light as a feather, not even knowing where he was.
Lack of martial morality, seriously lacking in martial morality, she just threw the drug at him without saying a word, giving him no time to react. It was infuriating.
“Are you alright?”
His companion stood by his side, asking softly.
It was fortunate that they came in time and didn’t let Gu Qingyu get close to their prince. Otherwise, who knows what might have happened next.
“No.”
The guard shook his head.
But just by doing so, he felt as if his head wasn’t on his neck.
“That’s harsh, what kind of drug was that?”
He wobbled his head a few times, feeling not just dizzy, but also filled with a desire to lie down on the ground and take a long sleep.
“The prince, did that woman touch him?”
Putting himself aside, he hurriedly asked.
“No, she’s not capable of that,” his companion assured him quickly.
Even without them, Prince Zhan had been in the room the whole time, just standing in a spot that wasn’t visible. How could Gu Qingyu succeed?
“That’s a relief.” Upon hearing this, the guard was put at ease.
Glancing sideways, he looked at the people in the room with his somewhat groggy eyes.
When he saw Gu Qingyu, who was tied up and thrown on the floor, he couldn’t help but twitch his lips; even though his vision was blurry, he could still see the wretched state on Gu Qingyu’s face. Had she been beaten by their guys?
“She can still move? Keep beating her, stop only when she can’t move,” Zhan Beiye ordered coldly as he watched Gu Qingyu continue to struggle. Just one beating wasn’t enough to appease his anger, and he commanded his guards.
The thought of just moments ago, when this woman not only wished to deposit Gu Insects on Xiang Qiyan’s body but had also audaciously tried to take liberties with Xiang Qi, inflamed his irritation.
How could he contain himself? He didn’t even wait for her to take out the Gu Insects from the box before kicking her away.
The guards obeyed the order and, without hesitation, set upon Gu Qingyu with a beating.
Although they had deliberately waited here for Gu Qingyu’s arrival, if she didn’t have that intention, how would she have fallen into their trap?
Daring to target their prince meant she had to pay a price.
Nothing but screams could be heard from Gu Qingyu’s mouth now.
She began to regret, wondering why she couldn’t have just been more patient.
If she had just ingratiated herself with the guards a bit longer and not rushed, maybe the outcome would have been different. The guards might have let down their guard, giving her an opportunity.
But it was too late for regrets now; she was discovered.
“It’s all your fault, you ruined my plan!”
After being beaten up, the guards moved away from her a bit. Enduring the severe pain in her body, she lifted her head to look at Zhan Beiye.
If it weren’t for Zhan Beiye, how could she possibly have failed? She would have placed the Gu Insects on Xiang Qiyan already and then made her escape. How could she have ended up like this?
“Good plan? Hah,” Zhan Beiye could hardly resist applauding her sarcastically.
In her eyes, as long as something was beneficial to her, it was a “good plan,” wasn’t it?
