Unexpectedly, just then, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, ruining the moment. A despicable man named Huo called out unknowingly, "Your Highness, it is almost time to go to court, do you need to change clothes?"

Gu Yun: "..."

It turned out that after wrestling for a while, the sky had already dawned.

Huo Dan knocked at the door, but nobody answered. He thought Chang Geng was tired and did not hear him. He was about to knock again when suddenly the door was opened from inside. When Commander Huo saw the person coming out, he was shocked, "Mar- Marquis!"

When did their Marshal Gu come back? How did he get in without alerting any of the family guards?

Did he jump over the wall?!

In the room, Chang Geng, who was a little embarrassed, while tidying up his miserable appearance, answered, "I will go now..."

Gu Yun interrupted him without a care, "Go and request a sick leave for His Highness. He won't go today."

Huo Dan was startled, he asked, "That... do we need a doctor?"

"Doctor? All doctors are a bunch of good for nothings." Gu Yun threw out the sentence angrily and immediately turned back inside the room, he ordered, "If there isn't anything, don't come to bother. Go quickly."

Huo Dan: "..."

Chang Geng who was put under house arrest looked helplessly at Gu Yun who arbitrarily made the decision: "I am not ill."

"You are not ill, am I ill?" Gu Yun brought out a handful of tranquilizer and put it into the fragrance burner on the side to light up. Things had already come to this, there was no need to hide any longer: "This is what Miss Chen asked me to bring back to you."

A refreshing fragrance permeated the room, Chang Geng sniffed it gently: "Miss Chen has changed her formula?"

Gu Yun rubbed the teeth mark on his arm: "Specialized in treating the little madman who bites people."

The tranquilizing fragrance soon took effect, filling the lungs, making one feel sluggish. Unable to muster any strength or rage, Chang Geng leaned tiredly on the bedside, letting his gaze roam free, staring at Gu Yun in a daze. His face was haggard, his hair was scattered, and his confused eyes were always on him. He appeared quite ill. There was not a single telling hint that he possessed an 'iron tooth'.

Chang Geng muttered, "Zi Xi, can I hold you?"

Gu Yun thought: How clingy.

Even so, he went over and sat next to him, letting him reluctantly lean over and put his arms around his waist.

"Call in sick." For a long time, Gu Yun suddenly said, "Isn't there a Grand Council already? Jiang Han Shi is also competent; he only lacked a few opportunities before. This time, he unexpectedly got recommended, presumably he will be able to compete for a chance, to show his talents for all to see."
