Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Chapter 29: Does being alone make you look old?

Besides, when Xiao Jingheng left the Imperial College, he deliberately asked people to slow down and wait for Gu Qinghe's carriage to catch up.

However, today happened to be the market day in this neighborhood, and the prince's carriage could not leave. Han Desheng also looked embarrassed, "Your Highness, how about we take another route?"

Change the route? Xiao Jingheng couldn't stand the word "Lu" now, "I'll go down and take a walk, and take a look at the people's sentiments."

Han Desheng looked at the guards. There was no such link in the plan?

"Yes, I'll help you." Han Desheng quickly stretched out his arm.

Xiao Jingheng stepped down from the carriage and said, "Just leave a few people to follow me."

"Yes."

Xiao Jingheng was walking slowly on the street, looking behind him from time to time. Why hadn't Gu Qinghe caught up with him yet? Did she and Lu Wangzhou have so much to talk about?

How come, when I was in the palace in my previous life, I went to Fengyi Palace, but he ignored me?

Finally, Gu Qinghe appeared. He came on foot, probably because it was inconvenient to take a carriage. Lu Wangzhou was following him.

The two of them strolled in the market, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere seemed very good.

"Third Miss, how did you end up going to school?" Lu Wangzhou asked.

"At first, I wanted to make some friends..." Before Gu Qinghe could finish his words, someone bumped into his lower back. He staggered and was about to fall into the stall in front of him that was full of hairpins.

"Be careful--" Lu Wangzhou was about to reach out to help, but was pushed away by a tall figure.

In fact, Gu Qinghe would not fall to the ground thanks to her strong lower body and some martial arts skills. But when she saw clearly that the black figure who was trying to help her was the Dog Prince, she dodged and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, her hands were holding on, so the posture was not too awkward. Yingchun hurried over and helped the girl up. "Are you hurt?"

Gu Qinghe smiled soothingly, "This is just the beginning. I don't know how many times I've fallen before."

The biggest fall you suffered in your previous life is right in front of you.

After Gu Qinghe stood up, she was about to bow when Han Desheng stopped her, "Third Miss, there's no need to be so polite."

Gu Qinghe obeyed and refrained from bending his knees. He then looked at the little girl who had bumped into him. She looked to be less than ten years old and was currently sitting on the ground, silently wiping away her tears.

Seeing that these rich young men were fine, the man who was chasing the little girl started pulling them again.

"What's going on?" Xiao Jingheng asked coldly, his face so gloomy that it looked like water could be squeezed out of it.

Gu Qinghe originally thought that it was none of her business and was about to leave, but the little girl grabbed her skirt, and the look in her eyes was full of help.

"Little girl, why don't you tell me?" Gu Qinghe squatted down, handed over her handkerchief, and asked softly.

"Miss, please buy me. I don't want to go to that kind of place. I will be tortured to death." The little girl said with tears in her eyes.

"Third Miss, why don't I accompany you back home first, and then send this little girl to report to the police later." Lu Wangzhou said.

He could tell that the man who had pushed him away was not an ordinary person, and the current incident was not worth mentioning to him.

If I intervene, it may cause a lot of trouble and will not benefit Gu Qinghe's reputation.

Women from aristocratic families in the capital city avoid appearing in the marketplace.

"No need. She asked me for help. How can I not even listen to her difficulties?" Gu Qinghe refused.

Lu Wangzhou no longer insisted and just stood quietly behind Gu Qinghe, blocking the pointing gazes of others.

Xiao Jingheng watched Lu Wangzhou's every move and every word, and the more he watched, the more he disliked him.

What went wrong? I was just waiting step by step. According to the trajectory of my previous life, Gu Qinghe would become my Crown Princess.

But now, her pillar of society appeared beside her?

These are all details that never existed in the previous life.

"Miss, I am eight years old this year. My family has no money, so my father sold me to a human trafficker. We agreed that I would work as a servant in someone else's home, but now I have to be sent to the building." The little girl said with sobs.

Gu Qinghe smoothed down her messy hair and said, "Your indenture is in his hands. If he wants me to buy you, what can you do?"

"I can make fire and cook, and I can also make simple clothes." The girl answered quickly.

"These..." Gu Qinghe pondered, "They are all basic."

"Look, you're still complaining that your mother asked you to go to the embroidery room to learn the craft, but you insisted on going to be a maid for some young master. Let me tell you, only those with skills can survive, not only for men, but also for women."

"Mom, I was wrong." A conversation was heard from the crowd, perhaps between a mother and daughter who were watching the fun.

Gu Qinghe stood up, his brows still furrowed. Xiao Jingheng kept looking at Gu Qinghe, and Lu Wangzhou also kept looking at Xiao Jingheng with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Right now, I can buy you, but I will send you to be an apprentice. When you earn money, come to me to redeem you." Gu Qinghe said lightly.

"Thank you very much, miss. Thank you very much, miss. I will work like a slave to repay you." The little girl kowtowed excitedly.

"Han Desheng——" Xiao Jingheng looked at Gu Qinghe and stopped talking. He shouted and gave her a look.

"Yes, I'll ask someone to do it right away." Han Desheng replied.

The matter was resolved, and the crowd of onlookers dispersed, leaving only the little girl following Gu Qinghe.

"Third Miss, why don't you leave the child to me? It will be inconvenient for you to go out." Lu Wangzhou said seriously.

"I don't want a brother. I want to follow my sister and listen to her arrangements." The little girl said, and hid behind Gu Qinghe.

"Why not give it to me so I can bring it in—" Xiao Jingheng also spoke.

"Sister, I won't follow this uncle either—"

"Puchi——" Gu Qinghe was thinking about the problem seriously, but when he heard the little girl call the Dog Prince Uncle, he couldn't help but chuckle.

This kid really has good eyesight. Xiao Jingheng is six years older than him and is about the same age as Bai's uncle. So, isn't he his uncle?

Lu Wangzhou, standing aside, also smiled silently.

Xiao Jingheng only felt that there was a fire in his mind, burning to his forehead, making him very angry. He knew that he was older than Gu Qinghe, but they were not of the same generation, right?

Could it be that I look very old?

"Goodbye first." Gu Qinghe bowed slightly and led the little girl into a clothing store.

"Master? Do you think it's time for us to go back home?" Han Desheng asked, bending over.

Xiao Jingheng said "hmm" lightly, "Go back to the palace and ask someone to find out what's going on with Lu Wangzhou."
