Chapter 97: The Paramour

By the time the water temperature had cooled enough, Gu Dashan carried Xie Lun, who was wearing only a large pair of underpants, into the bathroom. The father and daughter worked together to help Xie Lun sit properly in the bathtub. Gu Dashan asked, "How long does he need to soak?" "Half an hour should be fine," Gu Chuo replied while wiping her hands. "But someone must watch him closely while he's soaking. He's unconscious now and might not sit steadily. If he slips, he could easily drown." "All right, I'll watch. You go do your own thing." No matter what, the boy born to Consort Yu was the eldest son of Emperor Xingyao. And if the Imperial Noble Consort succeeded in demoting Empress Tao and taking her place, the eldest prince would have a higher chance of becoming the heir. All right, once this highly generalized and promotional slogan hit the streets, people got hit hard again. But Yi Ning thought about it and realized that besides Chu Ling, no one else would call her "sister-in-law," would they? Zhuo Mei personally visited his teacher Xia Boqing, acting as a parent to discuss Shu Lu's marriage with him. Although Zhuo Mei's age wasn't that great, as he was Shu Lu's eldest brother and had already started a family, he had the qualifications to act as the parent. When Chu Ling saw the bloodstains covering most of Chu Tian's body, she cried out in fright and didn't care about the others present. She immediately pulled off Chu Tian's clothes, checked his injuries, and then volunteered to drag Chu Tian away to treat the wounds. "Now, how should we enter the Lin family, and then how to get into the Bilu Garden?" Xiao Yan asked out the most pressing question at the moment. "Treasure!" Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu's eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of joy. The monsters here were nearly all mages, so the hidden compartments for treasure, when searched, should also contain mage items. That thunderous sound that resounded like a thunderclap in his ears immediately caused the old man in yellow to change color, and his later body source of the Battle Emperor was also imprisoned, causing his body to fall uncontrollably. The sky suddenly darkened. Many people, including those heavily armored soldiers who were fighting, couldn't help but lift their heads to look at the suddenly obscured blazing sun, full of doubts. "Brother Niu, how is it? Did you find anything good?" A rugged-faced man looked around the forest vigilantly, seeing that there was no patrolling Battle Emperor checking, then he recovered his beast head and asked the former in a low voice. Li Ji suddenly felt very guilty towards Liao Ying. Although nothing else had happened, he still subconsciously wanted to carry her. First, it was to fulfill the wish of his university friend Li Sisi. The two had mutually promised during their university days that if one became rich, the other would accompany them to the largest mall in J City to buy without limits. Now, in this family, only Su Jing and her closest one, so subconsciously, when something happens, she only tells him because he won't hit her. Before meeting Su Guan, he felt very lonely. After meeting her, that feeling of loneliness had become increasingly distant from him. His love for her was unwavering, always consistent. His hatred for him was because he had a good appearance that attracted the princess's attention, thus harming her entire clan. No one dared to think that because the Jiang family was released safely, the Crown Prince would look at Old Master Jiang with new eyes. Even if there was some incense and fire relation, it should have been used up by now. But in her mind, she always remembered falling off the cliff, so she thought she had died again. Cui Hao didn't guard against it. His face twitched, and he hurriedly rubbed his eyes with his hand. Immediately, a few tears spilled out. She didn't dare to light a candle, so she had to improvise according to her memory, groping to the bedside, then walked behind the bed, reached into the cabinet where she stored her clothes, and started searching. "Brother, how is she different from what I imagined? Do we still have to participate in this program?" Xie Yian asked uneasily.
