Chapter 82
At her parents' study, Gao Lan Mei sitting in front of Gao Qi, silently listening to him, narrate, or, blurting better yet ranting about Wei Jiayi's help at the time of the accident.
All words spoken was so stressed, emphasizing the importance or just to get her attention.
He probably notices how her mind drifted off to somewhere, instead of hearing and understanding what he is trying to say.
Next to Gao Lan Mei is her mother. The woman was on house arrest last night due to the a.s.sa.s.sin attack and was not even allowed by her husband to go out and check on her daughter.
Because of this, Madam Gao is also blatantly ignoring the Minister and just softly stroking her daughter's hand that is bandaged by the medical strip.
"I repeat, he is your benefactor. Without him providing the blood replenis.h.i.+ng pill, I hate to think what would have happened to you." Gao Qi sincerely wants his daughter to treat the prince with more respect, though both women in front of him are not really taking what he is saying to heart.
Whatever their current differences, she must never forget the favor the Gao family owes him.
"I will do my best father." Gao Lan Mei answered at last. No need to talk about it, really. She will just need to avoid the prince to not 'accidentally' disrespect him.
Do not get her wrong, she appreciates the things that the Prince did so far. Being acquainted with him will bring a lot of
Aside from the fact that most do not know is that he owns the Medical Pavilion, which has multiple branches across the whole mortal domain.
Wei Jiayi is also the most powerful she has known so far in the domain. The man is so easy to blackmail as well, due to his fascination with the bird species like her. Still, he is dangerous and unpredictable.
With a deep sigh, giving up, as he knows he is being ignored much of the time, "Do your very best then." Then remembering something important, "Mei'er! Why did you release one of the a.s.sa.s.sins?!" he stood trying to show a more domineering effect. Not knowing why he felt he needed to.
Both woman in front of him, was surprised with his sudden action, Madam Gao then glanced to Gao Lan Mei after processing what her husband had pointed out, "Is that true?" she said laced with concern.
It's unbelievable for the madam that her daughter involved herself to this thing.
With a nod, then offering a rea.s.suring smile, "Yes, but there is a valid reason for it, of course. So, do not be so angry father." Well for her, since the Liqi a.s.sa.s.sins touched the Ye family, they deserve some form of a thank you gift, right?
Another universe calls it, thank you gift basket. Her gift though cannot be placed on the basket as it's a living being.
"Anyways, trust me father, I have everything under control." Her tone confident, that Gao Qi cannot refute.
This daughter from the time she woke after the accident, then after being healed by the Holy doctor, showed many surprising things. It's not bad, but it's just making him worried.
Even the Zicuìyù Regime seems to already have acknowledged her presence, by the way, some is trying to get his favor to serve Gao Lan Mei.
He cannot blame them anyway if she can make the two protectors' breakthrough using pills that she also freely given to the enchanted Purple Rose herb, that also confirms that probably have more that can also help any protector serving under her.
Should he feel jealous or envy that the protectors like Gao Lan Mei more than him? Of course not. What a very stupid question.
Gao Qi felt like laughing to his own line of thought if the protectors can keep his daughter safe, all that matters.
He wants to know if she has more pills, but before he was able to ask, they felt an enormous presence going to their direction.
