Chapter 15

After Qin Jiyi and Qin Yunchu finished their business, they were about to take their leave, but just as they were about to leave, a servant came to report that Gu Qianxue was not feeling well.

Prince Chu hurriedly asked where Gu Qianxue was unwell, but the servant stammered, vaguely mentioning something about bleeding.

King Qin showed no expression on his face, but a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes: Not feeling well? Even if she's not feeling well, she should go to Lady Gu, not to them.

Sure enough, when Qin Yunchu heard this, thinking of the child in Gu Qianxue's belly, he decided to go and see her, asking King Qin to wait for a moment.

Cough... Gu Guogong's face turned red, and he looked awkwardly at King Qin: "Your Highness, why don't you go to the study and wait?"

Qin Jiyi did not want to stay at the Gu residence, but he had promised King Zhao that he would bring Yunchu back safely. Despite his reluctance, Qin Jiyi had to wait at the Gu residence.

At this moment, the aphrodisiac in Qin Jiyi's body had not yet taken effect, but Gu Qiancheng was already suffering greatly from it.

Due to the effects of the drug, Gu Qiancheng's cheeks were flushed, and she exuded a seductive allure, her eyes filled with enticing charm, and her body was so weak that she could not muster any strength.

The effects of the drug grew stronger, and Gu Qiancheng found it increasingly difficult to control her body. The intense desire made her feel like she wanted to kill someone.

To maintain her sanity and control her body's desires, Gu Qiancheng picked up a sharp stone and forcefully stabbed it into her thigh.

The sharp stone pierced her thigh and also injured her palm, and Gu Qiancheng's tears instantly streamed down her face.

Damn, it really hurts.

Stimulated by the pain, Gu Qiancheng's rationality gradually returned, and the effects of the drug slightly subsided. This suffering was not in vain.

But Gu Qiancheng was too optimistic. She hadn't taken two steps before tragedy struck.

"Ah..." Gu Qiancheng's legs gave out, and she fell directly to the ground, her face buried in the mud. It took her a long time to recover.

"Can things get any worse?" Gu Qiancheng, enduring the pain, got up, wiped her face, and continued walking.

Those people didn't want her to have an easy time, so she had to live well.

Her body felt like it was falling apart, and with every step, the pain intensified. But there was a benefit: the effects of the drug were not as strong, and she wouldn't desperately want to find a man and give herself to him.

Stumbling along, Gu Qiancheng finally reached the pond. At this point, she was truly burning with desire. Her clothes were already torn, and she occasionally let out seductive moans, which were both embarrassing and infuriating.

Gu Qiancheng knew her endurance had reached its limit. Without regard for the thick clothes on her body, she closed her eyes and "splash" jumped into the water.

The cold pond water instantly engulfed Gu Qiancheng, temporarily quelling the burning desire in her heart. She soaked in the water for a long time before surfacing.

"Phew..." Gu Qiancheng exhaled forcefully.

In the cold pond water, the effects of the aphrodisiac greatly diminished, preventing her from desperately seeking a man. However...

"It's really damn cold." Gu Qiancheng shivered in the water. She tried to walk to the shore, but as soon as she left the water, the burning desire returned.

"Damn it." Gu Qiancheng angrily slapped the water. To avoid being controlled by the aphrodisiac, she had to dive back into the water.

Getting sick from the cold was better than losing her virginity to some random man.

At the same time, the drug that Qin Jiyi had taken also took effect. Sensing the abnormality in his body, a murderous intent flashed in King Qin's eyes.

The Gu residence was becoming increasingly outrageous. He had not confronted the Gu residence out of respect for Uncle Wu, but he never expected the Gu residence to scheme against him again.

Qin Jiyi suddenly stopped, and the servant leading the way, puzzled, cautiously said, "Your Highness, the study is just ahead."

Study? He didn't know what awaited him in the study, and going there now would be like delivering himself to them.

Qin Jiyi forcibly suppressed the effects of the drug and coldly said, "Tell Lord Gu that I have something to attend to and am leaving. I will remember today's incident."

With that, he flicked his sleeve and turned to leave, leaving the servant standing there, panic-stricken, but unsure of what had gone wrong.

Qin Jiyi continued to use his inner strength to suppress the effects of the drug, but the aphrodisiac he had taken was extremely potent. The more he suppressed it, the stronger the reaction became.

The intense desire made it increasingly difficult for Qin Jiyi to control his body. He felt like he was about to explode, especially in his lower body, which was already standing erect, urgently seeking a woman to satisfy his desire.

"Gu Guogong really spared no expense," Qin Jiyi said through gritted teeth, his coldness replaced by desire.

He knew he couldn't hold on much longer. If he couldn't neutralize the effects of the drug, he might end up taking a random woman at the Gu residence, which would not only fulfill their scheme but also ruin his reputation.

If he took a woman at the Gu residence today, tomorrow everyone would know that the Crown Prince had suddenly become amorous at the Gu residence and engaged in a liaison with a woman.

He, Qin Jiyi, could not afford to lose face, and his pride would not allow him to be manipulated to this extent.

Qin Jiyi thought of the pond he had seen in the back garden earlier. After some consideration, he decided to abandon the idea of leaving the residence and instead headed for the pond.

No matter what, he had to suppress the effects of the drug first.

Qin Jiyi chose a secluded path, not disturbing anyone along the way. Due to the effects of the drug, he did not notice that someone was already in the pond and jumped in directly.

Finally, he had avoided a scandal, and Qin Jiyi let out a deep breath of relief...
