Chapter 263 Striving to Become a Business Expert
A calculating glint flashed in Wei Wenshu's eyes. She subtly ran her hand across the inkstone, then exclaimed in surprise.
"Ah! It hurts!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that her index finger had been cut by the edge of the inkstone, and blood was seeping out.
Zhai Rongyu was greatly surprised.
[Wow, they've even resorted to a self-inflicted injury ruse.]
We're pouring our hearts out here, and she's playing tricks on us.
Life is truly about stealing the spotlight at every turn.
Will my second brother be heartbroken?
No, I have to show concern for her before my second brother does, so he won't have a chance to do anything!
Zhai Jiqing: ...
Little sister, there's really no need for that.
He has eyes; the sharp corner of that inkstone was clearly from the court. It must have been deliberately done by Wei Wenshu; otherwise, how could it have made such a mark?
Zhai Rongyu hurriedly shouted, "Shuang'er! Quickly bring gauze and medicated wine! Sister Wei has cut her hand!"
[Slow down a bit, and the wound will heal quickly!]
Wei Wenshu bit her lip and looked at Zhai Jiqing, tears welling in her eyes: "Young Master..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a loud voice.
"Let me go!"
Shuang'er came running over, carrying a bunch of things, and squeezed between her and Zhai Jiqing.
She rolled up her sleeves and, with lightning speed, forcefully grabbed Wei Wenshu's hand, dipped it in medicinal wine, wrapped it with gauze, and did it all in one go.
"Miss Wei, it's alright now!"
With her around, I guarantee this ambiguous atmosphere won't escalate even a little bit!
Zhai Rongyu looked at Wei Wenshu's index finger, which was wrapped in gauze that was bigger than a walnut.
She slowly typed a 6.
He couldn't help but reach out and pat Shuang'er on the shoulder, "Shuang'er, you are the rising star of the year."
Shuang'er was already used to her nonsensical remarks, and could even chime in with a couple of lines: "Miss, don't just make empty promises, remember to give me a raise."
Wei Wenshu: ...
What's wrong with this maid?!
How can you be so blind!
Just like her master, she's blind and incompetent! It's infuriating!
All that surgery was for nothing!
She raised her index finger somewhat angrily, "This little injury doesn't warrant wrapping it up like this!"
She angrily tore off the gauze and threw it on the ground.
"Young master, Shuer is not feeling well, so she will return to her residence first. She will visit again another day."
After saying this, he took his maid and returned home, still seething with anger.
Zhai Rongyu picked up the gauze from the ground, suppressing a laugh, and said to Shuang'er, "Quick, quick! Put it away quickly, keep it as a souvenir."
[Commemorating the victory in the first battle of the "simp defense" campaign!]
"Yes, Miss." Shuang'er smiled as she took the gauze, placed it on a plate, and carried it back to her room.
Zhai Jiqing shook his head with amusement.
These two, master and servant, are really starting to look more and more alike.

As night fell, the stars shone brightly.
A hand silently poked a hole in Zhai Rongyu's window paper, and a wisp of intoxicating fragrance drifted into the room.
Zhai Rongyu's eyelashes fluttered.
A figure appeared beside the bed, blocking half of the moonlight, and a shadow covered the bed.
Long Qianxue gazed at Zhai Rongyu's sleeping face, her eyes, backlit, filled with gloom.
She reached out and gently stroked her cheek, her plaintive voice echoing softly in the room.
"God is so unfair."
"Such a beautiful appearance, yet it was given to such a lowly mortal."
Driven by jealousy, she scoffed with a hint of disdain, "That regent is nothing but a mortal, so easily bewitched by mere physical appearance. If I had such looks, wouldn't I be able to easily win his heart?"
Thinking of this, her eyes suddenly sharpened, and she swung a spell at Zhai Rongyu.
The water-repelling bead suddenly lit up.
A powerful aura of dragon energy formed a barrier, blocking the spiritual power and turning back to strike Long Qianxue.
She couldn't dodge in time and was struck in the chest by her own internal force, staggering back several steps, her face turning pale.
"how come……"
"Since we can't harm her... how do we extract her essence and blood?"
She glared fiercely at Zhai Rongyu.
"I never imagined that the regent would protect you so much..."
"How can a mere mortal be worthy of the love of a true dragon!" Her eyes grew increasingly bloodshot, her expression revealing undisguised ruthlessness.
These things should all have belonged to her...
Thinking of Jun Ce, Long Qianxue felt a pang of panic.
Oh no! Now that the Dragon Clan's inner strength has been alerted, the Regent will surely arrive!
Gotta leave quickly!
Her eyes quickly swept over the gauze in the room, and when she saw the red bloodstains on it, she was overjoyed.
God help me too!
A golden light flashed, and Long Qianxue, with her bandages still on her body, disappeared from the spot.
Zhai Rongyu suddenly opened her eyes and slowly sat up.
Why is Long Qianxue looking for my hair, skin, and blood essence?
Judging from what she just said, it certainly wasn't anything good.
She turned to look at the empty gauze tray, blinked her almond-shaped eyes, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
[This Wei Wenshu is really unlucky...]
[You took the risk for me for nothing.]
Well, I can only wish her good luck.
Jun Ce arrived just then and, seeing the girl sitting upright on the bed, hurriedly stepped forward.
"Rong'er, are you alright?"
"Are you injured?"
Zhai Rongyu was not surprised when he suddenly barged in, and gently shook her head.
"nothing."
"As for Ah Xu, he's become increasingly skilled at handling such matters now that he's entered the inner sanctum."
Holding the blanket, she chuckled jokingly, "If I don't become a regent in the future, maybe I can get a certificate and work as a flower thief."
Jun Ce walked up to her with a sigh, bent down, and gently flicked her forehead. "I was worried about your safety, but you still made fun of me."
"They have no conscience."
"What are you doing?!" Zhai Rongyu wailed, clutching his forehead. "It's true, and now I can't even say it!"
She raised her hands, and the blanket slipped off her body, revealing the nightgown she was wearing underneath.
A pale white thin shirt partially conceals the skin.
Her slender neck and a large expanse of fair skin were exposed to the air, delicate as solidified white jade, seemingly so fine that a gentle pinch could leave a mark.
Her full, slender waist is captivating.
Jun Ce swallowed hard, lifted his robe and sat down on the edge of the bed, pressing one hand against the bed frame as he leaned closer to the girl.
"Since Rong'er says so, I'll rehearse it in advance."
His deep, hoarse voice, though subtle, resonated deeply, igniting a fire within Zhai Rong.
"What are we practicing?"
Sensing danger, she braced herself against the bed and stealthily moved backward, only to be grabbed by the waist and pulled in front of Jun Ce.
“Of course he’s a womanizer,” he whispered in her ear. “I will certainly not disappoint Rong’er’s expectations…”
"Strive to become a skilled professional."
Hot breath sprayed against my ears.
Zhai Rongyu panicked and put her arms in front of his chest, on the verge of tears.
"I was just joking..."
"joke?"
Jun Ce straightened up, supporting her waist with one hand and pressing the back of her head with the other. His burning gaze fell on her face and body as if it were a physical object, and his voice grew deeper and deeper, "Rong'er's words have always been more effective than an imperial edict."
"How can you call it a joke?"
He lowered his head and kissed her collarbone without warning.
“Don’t, don’t…”
