Lethal Flower - Chapter 75 Invitation
“Sister Shuang! Sister Shuang! Sister Shuang! ”
Shuang stop when she heard someone called her name.
She saw Gu Jiaolian came running towards her.
“Finally I saw you!” The girl was out of breath when she finally stood up in front of her.
“What is it?” Shuang asked.
“Mother and I will be back home today to celebrate father’s belated birthday. And guess what? The First Prince is invited so you should come.”
“And why would I come?”
“Eh? Don’t you feel excited to see the First Prince? Gu Jiaolian shockingly asked which made Shuang bewildered
.
“What’s so exciting about seeing the Prince? If it’s a money grabbing contest I would definitely come.”
Gu Jiaolian was shocked speechless to hear her words.
“Sister! Ssssh! Be careful with your words. Offending a member of the Imperial Family is equivalent of taking your own life. Alright, it’s still a celebration to my father’s birthday and well-being and I hope you should come.”
Gu Jiaolian handed her the invitation letter before she bids her farewell.
When Gu Jiaolian left, Jing Lin arrived carrying a tray with afternoon snacks.
“Jing Lin greets his Young Miss.”
Shuang nodded as she beckoned the child to follow her inside the garden house.
“Jing Lin.”
“Yes Young Miss.”
“I remembered that the reason you ran away is because you saw that Madam Hong was being stabbed by someone, am I right?”
“Yes Young Miss.” Jing Lin answered a little bit confused.
“How it is related to Madam Hong of the late officer Hong?”
“Madam Hong of the late Officer Hong? The Madam that I saw is the Madam of Old Noble Hong.”
“The Old Madam. Alright, you can leave now.”
“Yes Young Miss. Jing Lin will leave now.”
Shuang leisurely eating her afternoon snacks as she was lying under the peach tree when Mo Fang saw her.
The old man has a sour expression when he saw the girl’s easy life appearance.
“Little Girl, here is my newly concocted tonic. I think I made it right this time.”
Shuang looked lazily at the man.
“Great Uncle, did you suffered a diarrhea? How many times did you go to comfort room today? You looked awful.”
Mo Fang left speechless.
“Have you tested it?” Shuang asked referring to the small bottle of red liquid that Mo Fang carried.
“Yes and I did not feel awful when I tested it myself so I think it works.” Mo Fang excitedly said.
“You’re right but it worsened your diarrhea. So it’s not yet perfect but it’s already nearly perfect. Work hard Great Uncle.”
Mo Fang’s face blackened when he heard the girl statement.
“Oh, right Great Uncle. Try this Peach Creamed Pie that Mother newly made according to my recipe. It’s delicious.”
“Shuang’er, did you really care for this old man. First, you made me like a living test for poisons and now you want me to eat this Creamed Pie even if you knew that I have a severed diarrhea? Are you tired of this old man already?” Mo Fang cried as he complained.
“Eh? Did you not drink a revitalization tonic yet? Anyway you won’t die just because you suffered diarrhea.”
“How am I going to have your tonic if you have forbid me to enter the white basement? Little girl, when will you stop torturing this old man?”
Mo Fang was complaining when Xuyin arrived the garden house.
“Young Miss, Doctor Mo.” Xuyin greeted after the two stop debating.
“The City Lord informed the both of you to attend the banquet tonight as Doctor Fang and disciple Ye. The First Prince would like to hand you his reward personally.”
Shuang and Mo Fang were both silent as they exchanged look.
