The Ice King's Little Trouble Maker

Chapter 492 - 456 Exiled

Gu Yanjing told Gu Yicheng to get a divorce quickly and leave Capital City.The matter was handled swiftly.

Qiao Yuxian and Ji Xiaoxiao, the morning after their defense. The two of them came out from the school.

Gu Yanjing picked up Qiao Yuxian.

Gu Yicheng picked up Ji Xiaoxiao.

And he did not trust Gu Yicheng, having someone watch him the entire time.

Coming out from the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Shang Chen sent Ji Xiaoxiao away.

Su Qi directly sent Gu Yicheng off without a minute’s delay.

Gu Yicheng thought he was going somewhere nice to enjoy himself.

Turns out Gu Yanjing sent him to F Continent, not exactly the worst, but a very impoverished place.

A place where if he didn’t move for a day, he wouldn’t have anything to eat that day.

And it didn’t seem very safe either.

His safety only came from the protection of the Gu Family.

He felt it wasn’t much safer than being in Capital City.

He wanted to go home.

But Gu Yanjing wouldn’t let him return.

He even said that until he had the ability to protect himself and support himself, he shouldn’t even think about leaving that place.

Meaning that his safety would be ensured, and he wouldn’t be left hungry.

But until he had the ability to deal with these things himself.

He couldn’t leave there.

Gu Yicheng felt like crying out to the heavens for help but to no avail.

Day by day, his life got tougher.

When Qiao Yuxian learned about this, she was shocked.

Gu Yanjing had indeed said before that once Gu Yicheng and Ji Xiaoxiao divorced, he would send Gu Yicheng away, let him go out and get some training.

But she hadn’t expected him to be sent to such a place.

Qiao Yuxian knew that Gu Yanjing was in such a hurry to get him out because he was genuinely worried that Yan Zhiyao would target Gu Yicheng.

But she didn’t expect Gu Yanjing to handle both his concern and Gu Yicheng’s training in one go.

Qiao Yuxian watched Gu Yanjing, chasing him from downstairs to upstairs, always watching him.

Gu Yanjing found the ointment in the bedroom’s storage cabinet, took a cotton swab, and pulled Qiao Yuxian’s hand, leading her to the bedroom balcony.

Qiao Yuxian sat on the swing on the balcony, looking up at him.

Gu Yanjing pulled a chair to sit in front of her, holding her hand, looking at the two mosquito bites on her wrist.

Qiao Yuxian had scratched that area red.

The weather had gotten hot, and the mosquitoes were starting to multiply.

Qiao Yuxian had spent quite some time messing around in a pile of flowers and plants, got bitten twice, and spent a lot of time waving mosquitoes away.

Gu Yanjing dipped some ointment with the cotton swab and slowly applied it to her arm, saying, "There are people over there to protect him, besides enduring some hardship, nothing will happen to him."

"’Some’ hardship?" Qiao Yuxian asked.

Gu Yanjing looked up at her, not saying anything.

Qiao Yuxian said, "Mr. Gu, you’re too harsh. Though he deserves it, you’re still too harsh."

Gu Yanjing gave a light smile.

Qiao Yuxian looked at him and then said, "In a couple of days, Ji Xiaoxiao’s role will be finished. I found her a place to stay, arranged for check-ups and all that. Someone will be with her afterward. The Gu Family won’t be accompanying her for now."

"Hmm," Gu Yanjing answered.

Qiao Yuxian said, "This way, no one will pay too much attention to her."

The Gu Family not over-focusing on Ji Xiaoxiao was a form of protection as well.

"Hmm," Gu Yanjing gently blew on the spot where the ointment was applied.

A cool breeze brushed her skin, Qiao Yuxian looked at him, paused, and said, "Gu Yanjing, I will be graduating in a dozen days or so."

Gu Yanjing looked at her, unsure of what she was trying to say.

Qiao Yuxian said, "When should we have a baby?"

Gu Yanjing was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes gradually darkened, and he tightened his grip on Qiao Yuxian’s hand.

Just as he was about to pull Qiao Yuxian off the swing, Qiao Yuxian suddenly dodged backward, swaying the swing, and then ran from behind.

Gu Yanjing watched her.

Qiao Yuxian stood behind the swing, looking at him, and said, "Mr. Gu, how come, I was just asking, what are you doing?"

Her expression and tone were full of mischievousness.

Gu Yanjing squinted his eyes looking at her.

Qiao Yuxian looked at him, then when he got up, she immediately ran outside, saying as she ran, "Mr. Gu, we still need to go to my house later, I’ll wait for you downstairs, hurry up."

As she said this, her voice faded into the distance.

Gu Yanjing stood at the balcony door, listening to her voice, and after a while, sighed helplessly.

...

Qiao Yuxian and Gu Yanjing had decided a few days ago to return to the Qiao Family for dinner today.

The two went to buy some things first, and then Gu Yanjing drove to the Qiao Family.

Just as they were approaching the entrance to the Qiao Family Villa, they suddenly saw someone they knew.

At a corner about three hundred meters from the villa gate, Lin Huai Shu’s car was parked there.

Lin Huai Shu and Qiao Lech were standing next to the car, talking.

Seeing them, Qiao Yuxian straightened up in the car and craned her neck to look at them.

Gu Yanjing drove straight over and stopped beside Lin Huai Shu’s car.

Lin Huai Shu was startled.

Seeing their car, seeing Gu Yanjing and Qiao Yuxian get out, he said, "Yanjing! You scared the hell out of me!"

Qiao Lech was also slightly startled, but when she saw it was them, she felt relieved, calling out, "Sis, brother-in-law."

Gu Yanjing glanced at Lin Huai Shu, said nothing, and looked at Qiao Lech, nodding at her.

But Lin Huai Shu could sense disdain from his faint glance.

As if judging him, for so long, not only had he failed to enter the Qiao Family’s gates, but he couldn’t even get close.

Lin Huai Shu felt a bit of pressure in his chest.

Qiao Yuxian said, "Went out to have some fun?"

Qiao Lech glanced at Lin Huai Shu and then nodded, "Yes. We went out to have some fun."

Qiao Yuxian smiled and looked at Lin Huai Shu.

Lin Huai Shu said, "Sister-in-law, long time no see."

"It has been a while." Qiao Yuxian said, "Mr. Lin, why don’t you come inside?"

"No," Lin Huai Shu refused flatly.

Although it was a good opportunity to visit the Qiao Family, Qiao Lech was not ready for her family to know yet.

He said, "I have some things to handle. I’ll visit another time."

Qiao Yuxian said, "You’re welcome anytime."

Lin Huai Shu smiled, looking at Qiao Lech, "I’ll head off then."

Qiao Lech said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin."

"No worries." Lin Huai Shu glanced at Gu Yanjing before getting into the car.

Gu Yanjing watched him.

Lin Huai Shu said, "I’ll see you tomorrow."

"Not free," Gu Yanjing replied calmly.

"Even if you aren’t free, I’ll come," Lin Huai Shu said from inside the car.

Gu Yanjing said nothing.

Lin Huai Shu closed the car door, rolled down the window, waved to them, saying, "Leaving now."

Qiao Yuxian and the other two waited for him to drive off, then Qiao Yuxian said to Gu Yanjing, "You drive ahead, I’ll walk with Lech."

"Okay," Gu Yanjing got in the car and drove to the Qiao Family first.

Qiao Lech and Qiao Yuxian slowly walked towards the Qiao Family.

After a few steps, Qiao Yuxian extended her palm towards her.

Qiao Lech hesitated, then after a few seconds, placed her hand in hers.

Qiao Yuxian held her hand, and the two sisters walked home hand in hand...
