283 Insisted On Staying On Top of Her
Recalling Rong Zhan’s temper like the King of Hell, Gu Qingxue felt that she could not be spared.
After all, it was the antidote that she had developed that caused Rong Zhan to be so weak. It would be unkind of her to leave without saying anything.
Recalling Rong Zhan’s dazed look just now, Gu Qingxue could not help but bite her lower lip lightly. Then, she carefully reached out her hand and held Rong Zhan’s shoulder.
She exerted some strength in her hand, trying to push the person in front of her away.
Rong Zhan grunted discontentedly as if he did not want to be disturbed, which made her immediately pull her hand back.
Not only that, but Rong Zhan also became even worse. Originally, he was just relying on her, but this time, he directly pressed all his strength on her body, causing Gu Qingxue to lose her balance and almost fall to the ground together with the two of them.
Fortunately, Gu Qingxue held Rong Zhan with one hand and grabbed the table with the other, preventing the tragedy from happening.
However, at the same time, she wanted to cry but had no tears.
She was doomed now. She could not stay like this for the whole night, could she?
Just when Gu Qingxue was at a loss, there was suddenly an orderly knock on the door.
Gu Qingxue’s eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, “Who is it?”
“Miss Gu, I’ve put the children to bed. I’m here to ask if you need my help with the housework before you go to bed. If you don’t have any, I’ll go back,” Nine’s voice came from outside the door.
Gu Qingxue could clearly feel what it meant to have a bright future. She hurriedly said, “Yes! Nine, come in and help me. His Royal Highness is asleep, I…”
However, before she could finish, Rong Zhan, who was sleeping soundly on her shoulder, actually sat up with his own strength.
Not only that, although he looked unhappy, there was not a hint of drowsiness in his eyes that should have appeared after he woke up.
“Your Royal Highness, aren’t you asleep?” Gu Qingxue asked in surprise.
“I’m just a little tired.” Rong Zhan snorted lightly, not looking at Gu Qingxue’s eyes which were filled with confusion. “You’ve made me so uncomfortable. You have to think of a way to solve it.”
While Gu Qingxue was worrying, the sound of the door being pushed came from outside.
It was only because the test of the medicine was a secret. Gu Qingxue was worried that her family members would accidentally barge in before the test, so she especially plugged in the latch. Ah Jiu could not successfully push the door open from outside.
“Miss Gu, are you okay?” Nine’s voice was a little grave.
Gu Qingxue clearly realized that she had promised not to tell anyone else about Rong Zhan’s poisoning.
Even when she concocted the antidote for Rong Zhan, she always used Rong Han as a cover. Even today, when she proposed to try the antidote for Rong Zhan, everyone thought that she wanted to try the antidote for Rong Han with Rong Zhan. Except for her and the little butler, no one in the family knew that Rong Zhan had been poisoned.
If Nine were to come in and see this scene, how would she explain it?
She had lost her mind just now. Now that she had calmed down, she realized that she could not let Nine come in.
Thinking that she had almost made a low-level mistake, Gu Qingxue still had lingering fear in her heart.
She was usually very calm, and she thought of everything carefully. She would never make such a silly mistake.
It was Rong Zhan’s fault. He was obviously not asleep, but he insisted on pressing on her body and not moving. She almost broke the agreement and lost 10,000 points!
“Nine, His Royal Highness was just a little unwell just now. He’s fine now. You should go back first,” Gu Qingxue changed her words and said to Nine, who was outside the door.
