Chapter 335: Just Catching Up

Su Mingyu curled her lips. "Can you wait to kill someone?"

As the two were talking, a flustered figure rushed in from outside.

Su Mingyu recognized the person at a glance. The corners of her thin lips curled up. Before she could call out, Qi Yue had already spotted her.

"Master!" Qi Yue looked at Su Mingyu excitedly. "I heard yesterday that you were back. The prince told me not to rush to find you and let you rest first. Why did you come here?"

As he said this, Qi Yue sized Su Mingyu up and down. Seeing that there were no signs of injury on her, the stone in Qi Yue's heart dropped. "The prince said you were injured. I was going to bring some medicine to see you tonight."

Su Mingyu spread her hands. "Do I look like someone who's been injured?"

"Come on in and talk." Qi Yue pulled Su Mingyu into a room inside Wu Wang. "The prince told me everything about you. Are you okay?"

"Do I look like I'm not okay?"

"However, the poison of the Liuguang Magic Flower is not easy to cure. I've already sent all the people in the organization to look for the antidote. You'd better not see Tang Yan during this period." Qi Yue was still a bit worried.

No wonder Wu Wang wasn't taking in customers even though she was back. It turned out they were helping her look for the antidote.

"I'd like to." Su Mingyu curled her lips. The problem was that Tang Yan always gave her trouble.

Su Mingyu looked at Qi Yue. "I came to find you. One reason is to let you know I'm safe. The other is that I want you to investigate Tang Yan's identity."

"Do I need to investigate Tang Yan?" Qi Yue curled his lips. "The prince sent people to investigate him a long time ago. I just got some information. Do you want to take a look?"

Su Mingyu raised an eyebrow. "Yes!"

After taking the information and looking through it, Su Mingyu found that it was exactly at night when Tang Yan's family was massacred.

No wonder Tang Yan couldn't sleep at night and always had those terrible dreams. It was all because of this.

Su Mingyu pursed her lips. "I also want you to help me investigate someone."

Qi Yue nodded. "Tell me."

"Tang Ziyan." Su Mingyu said each word slowly. She looked up at Qi Yue. "I want you to find out the relationship between Tang Ziyan and Tang Yan."

"What?" Qi Yue was stunned. It took him a long time to react. "You want to... investigate Tang Ziyan? What's there to investigate about him? As a male prostitute and the top one at that, the madam must have already investigated his identity. Isn't it redundant for you to do it now?"

Su Mingyu took a deep breath. "I don't know why, but I always feel that Tang Ziyan... and Tang Yan, it's just too much of a coincidence. Moreover... although Tang Ziyan was hand - picked by me, his actions make me feel uneasy."

"Okay." Qi Yue nodded. "Since you've said so, I'll help you investigate. However, it might not be easy to find out the background of a male prostitute from Nanyuan."

Su Mingyu hummed. "It's okay. You can start investigating first. Just tell me whatever you find."

"Should we tell the prince about this?" Qi Yue asked casually.

"Not for now." Su Mingyu refused almost without thinking.

"Ah?" Qi Yue was stunned. "Do you think you can hide it from the prince?"

Su Mingyu curled her lips. "I know I can't, but if Gu Ruobai knows that I suspect Tang Ziyan has a problem, he might not let Tang Ziyan stay anymore."

If Tang Ziyan really had something up his sleeve, it would be much harder for her to find him then.

Qi Yue knew what Su Mingyu was thinking, so he nodded. "Okay, I understand. You can go back and wait for my news."

Su Mingyu raised an eyebrow and praised Qi Yue. "You're really becoming more and more reliable now."

Qi Yue scratched his head. "It's all because the prince taught me well. The prince has been arranging most of the affairs of Wu Wang during this period, and I've just been carrying them out."

Hearing this, the corner of Su Mingyu's mouth twitched. "What? I've only been gone for a few days, and now Wu Wang belongs to the Gu family?"

"Master! What are you saying? The prince just wants to help you maintain Wu Wang well." Qi Yue looked at Su Mingyu, really a bit nervous.

Su Mingyu rolled her eyes. "Do you think your master is such an unreasonable person? Alright, go and do your work. I'm going back to the prince's mansion."

With that, Su Mingyu got up and was about to leave. But when she reached the door, she suddenly looked back at Qi Yue. "Qi Yue, this place should start taking orders soon, right? After all, the brothers still need to eat."

Qi Yue was stunned at first, then nodded. "Yes, I understand."

Watching Su Mingyu leave, Qi Yue was secretly excited! He was finally praised by Su Mingyu.

After wandering around for a while, just as Su Mingyu was about to return to the prince's mansion, a carriage stopped in front of her.

Su Mingyu instinctively wanted to get out of the way, but the carriage still followed her.

Su Mingyu then looked up impatiently. As soon as she did, she saw King Yu smiling on the carriage.

"King Yu, where are you going?" Su Mingyu said as she made way.

However, King Yu didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave. Instead, he waved to her. "If the princess is not busy, why not come up and have a chat?"

Su Mingyu glanced at the strange looks around her and touched her nose. "I'm afraid that's not appropriate. I just got back. If King Yu really wants to catch up, how about coming to the Ruixian Prince's Mansion some other day?"

Looking down at her, King Yu saw through Su Mingyu's thoughts at a glance. He hooked his lips into a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "What? Is the princess worried about what others will say?"

Su Mingyu smiled. "Since King Yu understands, please don't make things difficult for me."

"You're my elder brother's princess, and I'm a prince with a family. Others won't say anything." King Yu raised an eyebrow and looked at her. "Besides, you're Su Mingyu. In all the time I've known you, I've never heard you say you were afraid. But now, after being captured for a few days, you've lost your former courage?"

This man's words were really irritating. Su Mingyu rolled her eyes in her heart. "Is King Yu saying this on purpose to annoy me?"

Seeing that Su Mingyu was a bit unhappy, King Yu quickly shook his head. "I just want to catch up with the princess. I heard that the princess has encountered some trouble recently."

Seeing that he wouldn't leave and must say something to her, Su Mingyu had no choice but to get on the carriage.

The carriage bumped all the way. Su Mingyu lifted the curtain and looked outside. It was the way back to the Ruixian Prince's Mansion.

She twitched the corner of her mouth. "If you had said you were sending me back earlier, maybe I would have gotten on the carriage right away."

"You wouldn't have." King Yu's tone was very certain.

Su Mingyu curled her lips. "Come on. King Yu must have come to find me for more than just chatting about these things, right?"

King Yu nodded. "How's your Qingming recently?"

"Thanks to King Yu." Su Mingyu pursed her lips. "Is that all King Yu wants to talk to me about?"
