Chapter 2007: Miserable Fiancée vs. Noble Lady (Part 42)

Fortunately, the Old Prince indeed, as he himself claimed, had seen many peculiar things.

Even though his heart was deeply shocked, he managed to maintain his composure.

Not judging people by their appearance is something he had taught his son countless times, and this time, he had to remind himself as well.

If the person before him was truly the Divine Doctor who cured his son, then so what if she was so young?

Do not judge heroes based on their age.

He showed a friendly smile and asked, "Miss Chang, no need for formalities. I’m just here to visit the Divine Doctor who cured my son Chengxuan."

He looked at Gu Shengyin, the implication in his words was clear.

Gu Shengyin smiled faintly: "Old Prince, you flatter me. Jiujiu just happened to know how to dispel the heat toxin and doesn’t deserve to be called a Divine Doctor."

This was an outright admission that Qi Chengxuan was indeed cured by her.

The Old Prince gazed fixedly at her, and Gu Shengyin met his gaze without evasion, her eyes pure and clear.

After a moment, the Old Prince suddenly laughed out loud, then abruptly bent down and bowed deeply to Gu Shengyin.

This sudden gesture startled Gu Shengyin, and she quickly stepped aside.

After the deep bow, the Old Prince raised his head: "This bow from an old man represents not the Prince Ping’s Mansion, but an ordinary father."

He looked deeply at Gu Shengyin and sincerely said: "Thank you, Divine Doctor Chang, for detoxifying my son!"

Gu Shengyin was shaken within.

She glanced at Qi Chengxuan, and sure enough, saw that the man’s eyes had reddened.

Gu Shengyin stepped forward and gently assisted the Old Prince, helping him to a chair on the side to sit down.

"You needn’t be so formal. I treated Prince Ping, and he agreed to my request; it was a fair exchange, nothing resembling a favor."

The Old Prince shook his head: "No matter what Chengxuan promised you, it’s all external; Divine Doctor Chang, you saved his life."

In this world, there’s nothing that can equal that.

Gu Shengyin looked complexly at this stubborn and robust old man over fifty, understanding his heartfelt care for his son.

At this moment, Qi Chengxuan stepped forward.

Standing before the Old Prince, his eyes still somewhat red but his words full of laughter: "Father, speaking like this makes things a bit difficult for your son."

The Old Prince was somewhat puzzled.

He glared at his son and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? Divine Doctor Chang is right here, hurry and thank the Divine Doctor!"

Qi Chengxuan looked at Gu Shengyin with a bitter smile.

Understanding his message, Gu Shengyin said: "Since the Old Prince is here today, why not try my floral tea? I assure you, it’s unique in the entire Da Ming Dynasty."

As she spoke these words, the powerful confidence in her voice surprised the Old Prince.

He immediately smiled and said, "Then I shall wait for the Divine Doctor’s splendid tea."

Gu Shengyin left the room, giving space to the father and son.

Qi Chengxuan cleared his throat and suddenly said: "Father, your child forgot to mention one thing to you."

The Old Prince, in great spirits, replied swiftly: "What is it?"

Qi Chengxuan calmly threw out a bombshell: "I wish to take Divine Doctor Chang as my Princess Consort."

The Old Prince thought he misheard for a moment.

He glanced at his son and asked: "What did you just say?"

Qi Chengxuan deliberately repeated: "I wish to take Divine Doctor Chang as my Princess Consort."
