The butler opened the door, and a wave of decadent scents wafted out, nearly overwhelming the two young attendants standing at the entrance.
Sunlight streamed through the open door into the room, and as the butler cautiously peered inside, he was taken aback, almost fainting from shock. The air was thick with incense, and the floor was strewn with a chaotic mix of clothing and shoes, jewelry scattered haphazardly, completely unaware of the intrusion.
At that moment, as sunlight flooded in, Gu Yanran suddenly opened her eyes. When she realized she was lying beneath a man in a compromising position, she looked up to find it was her fiancé, Pei Zhirui.
Gu Yanran was stunned!
She allowed Pei Zhirui to caress her, momentarily at a loss for how to react. All she knew was that driven by her inner desires, her hands clung to his back, and instinctively, she arched her waist in response to the man she had longed for.
In a moment of clarity, she tried to push Pei Zhirui away and reach for something to cover herself. Unfortunately, the blanket and clothes had been kicked to the floor during their passionate struggle, leaving nothing on the bed to shield her.
"Don't move. Just a little more." Pei Zhirui, lost in the effects of an aphrodisiac, gazed vacantly, trembling all over, consumed by an unquenchable fire that he could not release.
Tears welled up in Gu Yanran's eyes as she could no longer hold them back.
Outside the room, those trained in martial arts had keen hearing; just from her words alone, they could guess who was inside. Today, aside from the Second Prince and the Ninth Prince, none of the other princes were in the capital and thus did not attend the birthday banquet for Princess Pingning. At this moment, the Ninth Prince stood behind them while the Second Prince was nowhere to be seen.
Pei Zhiqing's deep-set eyes were filled with coldness.
This realization nearly sent the old butler to his grave. He leaned closer to the Grand Duke's ear and whispered: "It's the Second Prince."
The Grand Duke flinched slightly at this news and asked uncertainly: "Are you sure?"
The old servant confirmed it.
"Pour water on him to wake him up."
Cunning as he was, the Grand Duke knew that both individuals were still under the influence of the drug and could only be roused with water.
Hearing this, Gu Qingning's eyes flickered with doubt; she had only intended to scare Gu Yanran and never meant for her to lose herself in such a manner. Who had drugged them so thoroughly?
From what she heard, she guessed that the man inside was undoubtedly Pei Zhirui.
She lowered her gaze towards the man in the wheelchair. Noticing someone looking at him, Pei Zhiqing raised his eyes to meet Gu Qingning's gaze. Her dark eyes moved restlessly over him as if silently questioning whether he had been responsible for drugging them both.
Pei Zhiqing played with the armrest of the wheelchair, appearing indifferent.
Zhang Yiwen, who had quietly moved to Gu Qingning's side, watched the subtle interaction between the two with confusion and surprise.
Soon, a servant brought in a basin of water, and the steward, once again risking his life, opened the door to enter.
"Get out!" Pei Zhirui, hastily throwing on an outer garment, quickly grabbed some clothes from the floor to cover Gu Yanran.
The steward, holding the water, fell to the threshold under Pei Zhirui's scolding, causing the door to swing wide open. Instantly, the infinite spectacle within was exposed to the onlookers waiting outside.
The Long Prince had previously ordered that all noble ladies be blocked in the flower hall, leaving only a few high-status ladies and young ladies who could not be dismissed. Otherwise, the scene unfolding would have provided endless gossip for many.
At this moment, the Tenth Prince heard a familiar voice and turned pale, his fingers trembling as he bit his lip in silence.
Under the Long Prince's arrangement, everyone gradually left the Duke of Qi's residence. Young Master Song Jiarun from the Prime Minister's residence was drunk and stubbornly refused to leave until his guards forcibly placed him into a carriage.
Afterward, the Long Prince dragged himself into the palace to meet Emperor Jing.
Glancing at the inebriated Song Jiarun, Gu Qingning got into her carriage. Pei Zhiqing advised her gently, "Rest for these next few days when you return; don’t overexert yourself."
