Chapter 352
Some of the men outside the public hall looked dumbfounded, while some whistled frivolously.
Meanwhile, Gu Jing’s complexion was as dark as the bottom of the pot, thinking that he really lost all his face today.
He really couldn’t stay any longer, flickering his sleeve coldly, he turned around and was about to leave.
“Your Highness!” Qin Xin agitatedly shouted to Gu Jing, still tugging at Xu Jinpeng with one hand.
She knew she couldn’t let Gu Jing leave just like that, everyone in the capital knew that she was Gu Jing’s concubine, if Gu Jing left now, she could only follow the Xu family.
How could she marry a fool!!!
But Gu Jing ignored her and strode out of the public hall.
Of course, Gu Jing couldn’t really leave Qin Xin behind. Everyone knows that Qin Xin was his woman, and if he “gave” his woman to a fool like this, how would the world think of him?!
But at this moment, if he continues to make trouble in the court with so many people watching, it would only make him feel more humiliated and make others look at him as a joke.
So, it would be better to wait until the trial was over and was thinking that after he withdraws, he’ll have someone stop the Xu family and take Qin Xin back, anyway, the Xu family just wants benefits. At that time, the magistrate would no longer have the authority to meddle of other people’s private affairs!
With these thoughts, Gu Jing felt that this was the best method and accelerated his steps out of the court, but what he didn’t think was, Qin Xin wasn’t aware of his plan.
Seeing that Gu Jing was about to leave, she panicked and in fear, an inexplicable force grew on her body as she continued to struggle to shake off Xu Jinpeng.
“Your Highness!” Qin Xin rushed out of the public hall in one breath, pulling Gu Jing’s wrist, not even caring about her torn right sleeve.
“Your Highness, don’t leave me behind.” Qin Xin raised her small face with delicate features, her eyes were like full autumn water, and used this to look at Gu Jing pitifully.
She doesn’t want to marry a fool nor does she want to go back to being poor.
Having seen the flourishing and bustling of the capital, how could she be willing to return to the countryside of Jiangyu County? She had already paid so much and now that she was reborn, she wouldn’t want another miserable life!
“Wife!” Xu Jinpeng from behind also ran outside of the public hall, wanting to pursue Qin Xin, but one of the second prince’s guards was afraid that he would bump into Gu Jing so he quickly stopped him with a scabbard.
Undeterred, Xu Jinpeng grabbed the scabbard of his sword and shouted, “Wife! Wife!”
Hearing the ear-piercing voice of the foolish man caused Gu Jing to feel more irritable and shrugged Qin Xin’s hand away, giving her a sideways glance. He planned to leave Qin Xin here first for a moment so as to teach her a lesson.
“Your Highness.” Qin Xin pleaded again, her eyes turning red, and her fair face was as delicate and charming as the white pear blossoms in full bloom.
Gu Jing half lowered his eyes looking soft-hearted, after all, this was the woman he has always put at the top of his heart…
Seeing that Gu Jing was still silent, Qin Xin’s heart went as cold as ice. Through the gap in her right sleeve, a blue and purple bruise that looks like from a pinched could be seen.
That’s right, Gu Jing was no longer the old Gu Jing who loved her deeply, she was the only one who naively thinks that nothing has changed.
He has changed, everything has already changed!
Qin Xin’s eyes secretly flickered.
She gritted her teeth and made a decision in her mind as she said in a low voice, “Your Highness if you don’t save me, I will get scared, and I may accidentally say something I shouldn’t…”
Her words were vague yet meaningful.
Gu Jing’s eyes sharply contract as if he had been stabbed and his complexion paled, but those eyes were fierce and cold.
Qin Xin was so afraid that she had to use all of her strength to support her body.
People don’t do it for themselves, heaven, and earth destroy it*, so she has no other choice, not to mention, there was no other way, moreover, she must not be taken back by that fool.
(*means a person does not cultivate himself, then it will be unacceptable to heaven and earth)
At this moment, Qin Xin’s heart was filled with a thousand times of resentment towards Li Jinzhu and Zhao Amman. Their work was sloppy and messy, why couldn’t they report the death of their eldest daughter to the government?
If they hadn’t let Qin Jiu take over her household registration and eight characters, she wouldn’t be in this situation at all!
Qin Xin and Gu Jing looked at each other, two pairs of eyes interlocked, she then said to herself she had no way out.
Qin Xin said again, “Your Highness, you know that I’ve always been timid, let alone, a few strikes of a stick, even if I was pinched, I easily get scared…”
Gu Jing’s gaze became even more sinister, and his hatred surged.
He hated people threatening him the most.
The pity he felt for Qin Xin completely disappeared, only hatred, and disgust remains in his heart. He abhorred her.
Qin Xin was even more afraid after seeing Gu Jing’s eyes but on the other hand, she became calmer as if her soul had been pulled out of her body, and clearly added, “Besides, your highness, you still “need” me, don’t you?”
She put more emphasis on the word “need”.
She was valuable, and her existence could cover Gu Jing’s secret that he doesn’t want anyone to know.
Qin Xin: “There is no one more obedient than me, and can reassure his highness more.”
Her voice sounded soft and gentle, but the meaning in her words was thorny. She was implying to Gu Jing that she knew all his secrets and if he didn’t save her, she would tell everything she knew.
