The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

Finally out of the cave, Gu Lingxi breathed a long sigh of relief! Oh my god! That Long Mo was practically possessed by a drama queen! He had her soft spot for him, the kind of person who only responds to gentle persuasion! Sigh! She really needed to stay away from such a clever guy, or she'd be completely under his thumb!

Outside the cave was a lush bamboo forest! Since the space was still short of some bamboo, Gu Lingxi moved a large patch of bamboo into her space!

I also checked on the unconscious people in the space! I told Ahri to feed them all some spiritual spring water, and then grabbed a big hen when I came out of the space! I'll make breakfast with it later! I filled a bamboo tube with spiritual spring water, and I'll cook bamboo-tube chicken later! On the way back, I also picked some fresh mushrooms on the mountain! They'll be great in the chicken soup later!

Jun Moli caught a glimpse of the hen she was carrying! He smiled without saying a word! This must have been taken from her mysterious space! The wild pheasants on the mountain are all very thin! They're not this plump! She's back!

Hmm! I caught a pheasant! Let's make a pheasant stew in bamboo tube! After we eat, let's hurry down the mountain! My parents must be worried sick!

The chicken in the space was exceptionally fresh and tender! The two devoured the chicken in no time, leaving not a drop of soup! Jun Moli still looked like he wanted more!

Gu Lingxi was speechless! It was such a waste to watch such an ethereal and handsome man eat! While she was lost in thought, the handsome man had already devoured all the food! Gu Lingxi wanted to cry but had no tears. Fortunately, she had eaten some staple food in her space earlier, otherwise she definitely wouldn't have been full!

After elegantly wiping her mouth and hands, Jun Moli looked completely satisfied! Xi'er's cooking is so delicious! I wish I could eat it more often!

Without thinking, Gu Lingxi blurted out, "Then give me more shares, and maybe I'll cook delicious food for you every day if I'm happy!"

Alright! Then I'll give you an extra ten percent! From now on, you'll be in charge of my meals!

Gu Lingxi... I just said it casually, and you took it seriously!

Okay! One percent isn't a small amount! It's just one more mouth to feed! At worst, we can just ask Ahri to cut back on her cooking and she'll be fine!

After a satisfying meal, the two descended the mountain. Upon reaching the bottom, Gu Lingxi decided to separate from Jun Moli. She still needed to get her brother and the others out of the city; returning would be inconvenient.

Brother Long, let's part ways here!

Jun Moli knew she must have other plans, so she didn't make things difficult for her!

Alright! There's plenty of time in the future! We're already so familiar with each other, isn't calling him Brother Long too formal? Or how about I call him Brother Mo?

Gu Lingxi... Long Mo, don't push your luck! I have my limits even with handsome men!

Seeing Gu Lingxi glaring at him with a puff of anger, Jun Moli smiled! In a flash, he disappeared without a trace!

Once she was sure there was no one around, Gu Lingxi waved her hand and released the people in the space!

The antidote was administered one by one! In just a moment, the group slowly regained consciousness!

Gu Yunyang was the first to wake up. Upon seeing Gu Lingxi, he excitedly asked, "Xi'er, are you alright? Where are the assassins?"

Hua Ying, Leng Feng Leng Yu, and the Liu siblings also woke up one after another! They all looked at Gu Lingxi with the same questioning expressions!

Brother, I'm alright! We ran into a skilled swordsman who saved us, and his men brought us here! Our benefactor just left!

Oh! Is that so? Did that person leave their name?

Gu Lingxi shook her head. No, he was unwilling to reveal his identity, probably because he didn't want to cause trouble!

Yes! That's true! Let's hurry back home then, so our family won't worry!

The group had walked along the official road for a short while when they encountered guards sent by the two families to search for them! After a hurried farewell, they all rushed back to their residences!

As soon as he returned to the manor, Feng Rou'er and Gu Fengyuan rushed out to greet him!

"Yang'er, Xi'er, are you two alright? Are you hurt?" Gu Fengyuan asked the two with concern.

Feng Rou'er, feeling distressed, pulled the two of them around, looking them over carefully. "Yesterday, the Grand Tutor's mansion sent someone to inform your father and me that you were assassinated at Nanwu Lake! Your father and I were so worried that we didn't sleep all night! The people we sent out couldn't find you, which really terrified your mother!"

Gu Lingxi brought up the story of that mysterious expert again, and Feng Rou'er finally felt relieved!

"Mom and Dad, I'm here! Aren't you worried?" Gu Yunyang said, trying to sound casual.

Gu Fengyuan glared at him, annoyed. "You brat, do you think I don't know my own limitations? If you sneak your sister out again, I'll break your legs!"

Oh! Father! I'm innocent! I wanted to tell you yesterday, but you weren't here! Oh, Father, twist it gently, my ear's going to break!

Hmph! It's better that it's broken! I'll teach you to talk back again!

Gu Lingxi and her daughter both covered their mouths and secretly laughed!

The next morning, as soon as Gu Lingxi woke up, Gu Yuting rushed in with a look of urgency!

Hua Ying hurriedly blocked her path! "Third Miss, our young lady is still resting! Please come another day!"

Gu Yuting originally wanted to slap her, but then she remembered that she had come to ask for the antidote and didn't want to offend anyone! So she opened her mouth and cursed!

Get out of my way! When did it become your business, you lowly brat? I'm going in! What can you do about it?

Heh! It seems Third Sister doesn't need the antidote? Gu Lingxi coldly opened the door and looked at Gu Yuting, who wanted to hit Hua Ying!

Gu Yuting guiltily hid her hands behind her back, her face full of flattery as she said, "Second sister, what are you saying! How could I not want the antidote? I've come to get it, haven't I? This medicine makes me so much pain every night that I can't sleep at all! During the day, I'm restless and agitated, and I've become much more haggard! Mother has been confined to her quarters, and the servants say she's not doing well either. Thinking of Wanxiang's tragic death, she's terrified! She's afraid that Gongsun Ruier really poisoned them, mother and daughter, to silence them!"

Without her mother's guidance, Gu Yuting felt helpless and unable to stand up for herself. She knelt on the ground with a thud and begged, "Please! For the sake of us sisters, give me the antidote!"

"Heh!" Gu Lingxi sneered disdainfully. "So now you remember we're sisters? Why didn't you remember when you bullied me before? Why didn't you remember when you and your mother sent people to assassinate me? Why didn't you remember when you tried to kill me with a flowerpot in the street? Why didn't you remember when you poisoned me last time? Why didn't you remember when you agreed to conspire with Gongsun Ruier to harm me?"

Gu Yuting's eyes widened in horror! "How did you know?" As if realizing she'd said something wrong, she quickly covered her mouth! "No, I didn't do it, it was all Gongsun Rui's doing!"

Gu Fengyuan and Feng Rou'er happened to be outside the door and overheard everything!

Enraged, Gu Fengyuan kicked the door open and cursed!

Is what Xi'er said true? I never imagined that so many wicked things were planned by you and Aunt Mei together?

Feng Rou'er was also furious! Last time, when Xi'er was going to the temple to offer incense and pray for blessings, it was that bitch Mei who found a monk to lie to me, saying that offering incense and making a vow would sweep away the bad luck! So that's how it is? You two venomous mother and daughter, you were trying to kill my Xi'er!

General, if you continue to protect them and fail to punish them this time, I will absolutely not stand for it!

Gu Fengyuan looked helpless. He had been too kind-hearted in the past! He had hurt his wife's feelings and almost caused Xi'er's death!
