Gu Xiaonan remained silent, causing Qitian Yu to think that he had been frightened into silence. He reached out to touch his head.

Instinctively, Gu Xiaonan turned his head to avoid it.

Qitian Yu’s hand paused and retracted, without a hint of anger on his face. “Xiaonan, rest a.s.sured, I will protect you.”

Given the choice, Gu Xiaonan would rather believe Yuanxi’s words. After all, his mother had given Qitian Yu a good beating, indicating that Qitian Yu must have done something to provoke her. Now, Qitian Yu was pretending to be a good person, but Gu Xiaonan suspected that he had ulterior motives. He couldn’t allow himself to be deceived!

Regardless of the other party’s intentions, Gu Xiaonan decided to proceed cautiously, taking things step by step. He believed that their true colors would be revealed in due time!

With these thoughts in mind, Gu Xiaonan let go of his guard against the other party and showed an innocent and obedient expression. “Thank you, Your Highness, the Fifth Prince.”

Qitian Yu felt a surge of joy, pleased with himself. Children were indeed easy to please!

Gu Qingluan held a deep affection for her son, and Qitian Yu knew that winning over this boy was the key to winning over Gu Qingluan herself. Hiding his underlying calculations, Qitian Yu smiled with utmost gentleness and said, “No need to be formal with me. Perhaps in the future, we may become a family.”

Gu Xiaonan snorted inwardly.

He remembered clearly the confession made by the Fifth Prince just now.

He didn’t expect that the other party actually wanted to marry his mother!

So, he had a plan in mind!

Gu Xiaonan scrutinized Qitian Yu with a critical gaze.

Qitian Yu put on an elegant smile.

Gu Xiaonan a.s.sessed him in his mind:

Average appearance, a maximum of fifty points;

False expression, thirty points;

Lack of strength, even I, a little child, am almost as strong as him. No, no, with such weakness, how can he protect my mother?

Zero points!

In Gu Xiaonan’s mind, the image of the Great Demon King flashed.

He thought to himself, at least his stepfather’s cultivation should be on par with the Great Demon King!

Meanwhile, after Gu Jinyue’s injuries had stabilized, Gu Zhixin couldn’t resist questioning the Fifth Prince.

Qitian Yu expressed a remorseful expression. “Second Master Gu, I did not intend to harm Miss Four intentionally. It was a mistake made in the heat of the moment. I will have the imperial physician treat her injuries, and all expenses will be covered by me.”

After all, he was a prince. With such a sincere att.i.tude of admitting mistakes and willingness to compensate, what else could Gu Zhixin say?

He could only swallow this humiliation.

In the sorrowful eyes of Gu Jinyue, a glimmer of hope emerged.

The Fifth Prince still had some feelings for her!

Regrettably, Gu Qingluan had intervened and deceived the Fifth Prince!

She had to find a way to win back the Fifth Prince’s heart!

Suppressing her resentment and jealousy, Gu Jinyue weakly said, “Fifth Prince, there’s no need to blame yourself. I know you didn’t do it on purpose.”

Then she glanced at Gu Xiaonan by her side. “I will listen to you and stop bothering this child.”

With such understanding, the Fifth Prince would surely recognize her virtues, wouldn’t he?

Qitian Yu’s eyes were filled with appreciation. “Miss Four is indeed a reasonable person.”

Gu Jinyue was overjoyed, feeling that she had done the right thing.

She shouldn’t have appeared too domineering and strong in front of the Fifth Prince. Most men preferred gentle and kind women.

Thinking this way, Gu Jinyue, supporting her injured body, pleaded with Gu Zhichcng not to harm Gu Xiaonan.

Gu Zhichcng furrowed his brows. “So be it. Today, out of consideration for the Fifth Prince’s reputation, I will spare you.”

He released his grip on Gu Xiaonan’s hand.

Gu Xiaonan landed on the ground, and Bo He quickly pulled him away.

On a rooftop not far from the Jun Residence, Feng Tianlan stood side by side with Feng Yuanxi.

“It seems we don’t need to intervene.”

Feng Yuanxi furrowed his brows. “That Fifth Prince is not a good person! He definitely has ulterior motives for saving Xiaonan.”

Xiaonan must not be deceived by the Fifth Prince.

Feng Tianlan curled his thin lips mockingly. “His ulterior motive is that woman. Perhaps in a few days, that woman will become his wife.”

In Feng Tianlan’s eyes, Gu Qingluan, a woman with a child, could captivate the prince. She must have some impressive means.

This aligned perfectly with his previous a.s.sumptions.

Gu Qingluan was not a meek and submissive person!

Feng Yuanxi immediately became infuriated.

“Beautiful Sister would never marry him!”
