Chapter 205: Serious Illness
Gan Luo then went to see Hua Yu, only to find Hua Yu lying in bed looking sickly.
"What do you think, young lady?"
Upon hearing Gan Luo's voice, Hua Yu opened her eyes slightly, but kept a certain distance from him.
"Since this young master has already brought you here, then this humble woman will take her leave now."
Then, the girl named Xue'er left and gently closed the door behind them, while Gan Luo sat down on the edge of the bed.
"Your Highness, why have you come here? Hua Yu is ill and is afraid of infecting you with her illness. We hope Your Highness can keep a certain distance from Hua Yu."
Unexpectedly, Gan Luo told Hua Yu that it had nothing to do with her, and even asked her why she had become like this. Hua Yu then told Gan Luo the whole story.
Unexpectedly, the Prime Minister actually came here... and even questioned Hua Yu's identity. This really surprised Gan Luo. Although this place is called a brothel, it is actually a place for gathering information. Hua Yu is a spy that Gan Luo arranged in the brothel.
At this moment, Gan Luo decided to go to the Shadow Hall and invite the divine doctor there to treat Hua Yu properly. However, Hua Yu grabbed Gan Luo's hand and told him that she could no longer live and that she had already asked a doctor to come and visit her.
Hua Yu told Gan Luo, "Your Highness, you can rest assured that I have not told the Prime Minister anything, including who I belong to. There is one more thing I forgot to tell you: the Prime Minister poisoned me, so I am doomed."
Gan Luo's face was terribly gloomy. Gan Luo never expected that this person would dare to do such a thing. Since this person had already done it, then don't blame the woman for being impolite. Gan Luo decided that she must make sure to show this prime minister how powerful she was.
"Although you just told me not to find someone to treat you, I want to tell you that I will not give up on you until the very last moment."
Now, I've come to this brothel for two reasons. First, I want Xin Ruyu to see Gan Luo's true colors. Second, I want to see Hua Yu, since I haven't seen her for a while. But I've discovered that she's seriously ill.
Gan Luo then left the area and went outside.
"Miss Huayu's condition is indeed quite serious. Have you sought treatment for her? Or what did the doctor say? Did the doctor mention anything else?"
"You may not know this, but I have already consulted many doctors, but they all said they were powerless to help. I don't want anything to happen to Huayu, but there's nothing I can do now."
As he spoke, tears streamed down his face. Gan Luo saw what the man was saying and saw the man himself. He could tell from the desolation in the man's eyes that the brothel madam truly hoped that Hua Yu could live. Gan Luo also understood that having Hua Yu would bring great benefits to the brothel.
Xin Ruyu overheard Gan Luo's continued concern about the courtesan, and for a moment, he was quite puzzled. Why would Gan Luo suddenly become concerned about her...?
Xin Ruyu was still surrounded by several girls, who were drinking for him and peeling grapes for him from time to time. They seemed to be enjoying themselves, but Xin Ruyu didn't seem to care about them at all.
Seeing that everything was almost done, he led Xin Ruyu and Lin Fengmian away from the place. On the way, Xin Ruyu's gaze fell on Gan Luo. "Young master, you have now brought me into a brothel, I'm afraid..."
Before Xin Ruyu could finish speaking, Gan Luo had already told him, "I just wanted to show you some different scenery. Wandering around this market all the time can get a bit boring. Wouldn't it be better to look at these beauties in a brothel?"
“Your Highness, aren’t you also a woman? How can a woman…”
Gan Luo stared coldly at Xin Ruyu, as if he wanted to tear Xin Ruyu to pieces. Xin Ruyu suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing again and hurriedly corrected himself. This was a habit, and it was really inappropriate to suddenly switch to another way.
"Everyone has a love of beauty, and I am no exception."
Gan Luo could only admire beautiful women.
Moreover, for Gan Luo, he only admired those people in the princess's dress. He might have enjoyed playing with them in the past, but now he didn't like them at all.
Even Gan Luo has lost interest, perhaps because having been reborn, he no longer has any desire for handsome men.
However, he had designs on the young guard beside Gan Luo, since the young guard liked Gan Luo, didn't he? He had protected Gan Luo just like in their previous life.
Lin Fengmian suddenly realized that Gan Luo had been staring at him. Feeling a little embarrassed, Lin Fengmian turned his head away. Xin Ruyu, of course, noticed the subtle interaction between Gan Luo and Lin Fengmian, and felt quite uncomfortable.
"I think it's about time for the day to end, so I'll head back now. Thank you for your hospitality today, Your Highness. I will definitely host you in return tomorrow."
Xin Ruyu decided that when entertaining Gan Luo later, he must not take Gan Luo to such a place, but rather to a very suitable place.
After Xin Ruyu left, Gan Luo brought Lin Fengmian to the Shadow Hall. Lin Fengmian was a little surprised, wondering why Gan Luo had come to the Shadow Hall, but he still stayed silently by Gan Luo's side without saying a word.
Gan Luo went straight into the Shadow Hall. After entering, he looked around. Gan Luo had already found the Shadow Hall Master. The Shadow Hall Master was somewhat surprised to see Gan Luo's arrival, and the sword in the Shadow Hall Master's hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
"So it's Princess! Your Highness has come! Please have a seat."
At this moment, the leader of the Shadow Hall was entertaining Gan Luo. Gan Luo simply sat to one side while the maids brought them some pastries. These pastries were quite beautiful, which made Gan Luo's appetite whetted.
