Chapter 450 - 450 Treated as if He Did Not Exist
450 Treated as if He Did Not Exist
“Second Brother, I’m still here!”
Still in the water, he reminded Qian Jiyun not to forget him.
However, Qian Jiyun did not forget about him. Instead, he wanted him to stay in the water and recall what had happened. Gong Cheng could only watch as the boat rowed further and further away while he swam back on his own.
Fortunately, he knew how to swim. Otherwise, what would he do?
He hated An Jiuyue to the core. He would not have ended up swimming in the Moonlight Lotus Pond if it hadn’t been for her.
…
“Achoo!”
Qian Yizheng was well, as he had consumed medicine from An Jiuyue’s Points Mall.
On the other hand, Gong Cheng, who had been pushed into the Moonlight Lotus Pond by Qian Yirong, fell sick and had a fever the next day.
He summoned an imperial physician to treat him and spent two days resting at home before feeling better. However, he started causing trouble again after he recovered.
He invited Eldest Brother Yan and Third Brother Fu to a restaurant and began to complain.
“Second Brother has changed. He watched me fall into the water and didn’t even save me because of a woman. Eldest Brother, do you think he’ll still be our Second Brother in the future?
“He used to protect me. When we went hunting in the royal hunting grounds, he almost got killed by a black bear to protect me.
“But look at Second Brother now. He threw me into the water because of a woman. You weren’t there to see it. An Jiuyue only had to give him a look, and he’d give in to her.
“Fifth Brother is also on Second Brother’s side!”
He had seen through it. A woman was more important than a brother. How could Qian Jiyun treat him like this because of a woman?
He had been lying in bed and drinking such bitter medicine for the past two days. He thought his second brother would feel guilty and come to visit him.
He was still contemplating how to persuade him to change his mind and throw An Jiuyue out of the Prince Zhan Yun Residence!
However, he did not receive any news from his second brother. He was treated as if he did not exist!
Eldest Brother Yan glanced at him and did not reply.
He knew Qian Jiyun’s personality very well. He would never believe that he was so foolish that he would risk his brother’s life for a woman.
Gong Cheng must have offended Qian Jiyun somehow and crossed his bottom line. Hence, Qian Jiyun punished him.
Furthermore, if only Qian Jiyun had treated him like that, it might have been because of a woman. However, Fifth Brother Xia was also present.
Even he went along with Qian Jiyun. Gong Cheng must have really offended Qian Jiyun.
“Second Brother has gotten too ambitious after staying at the southern border, right?”
Although Eldest Brother Yan was rational, Third Brother Fu was not, especially given his bad temper. His wife had even divorced him because of his temper. He hated her to the core.
He had never met An Jiuyue before, but he believed Qian Jiyun was at fault after hearing what Gong Cheng said.
According to the proverb, brothers were like hands and feet, and women were like clothes; if one lost one’s clothes, one could replace them, but what could one accomplish without one’s hands and feet?
“Don’t be anxious, Sixth Brother. I’ll accompany you to Second Brother’s place later. He’ll definitely apologize to you,” he promised, patting his chest.
Gong Cheng looked at Third Brother Fu gratefully. “Thank you, Third Brother.”
Third Brother treats me well, unlike Second Brother, who values his lover over his friends!
