Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 306: Chapter 189 I Want to Be on Top Chapter 306: Chapter 189 I Want to Be on Top When Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu arrived at the dungeon, the scene they encountered looked like this.

Zhou Zongbao’s crown was askew, his brocade robe crumpled, and his spirit was defeated. Even though his eyes were closed, his hands were still tightly gripping the bars, surely due to fright.

“Cough!” Zhou Mu coughed lightly, covering his lips with a frown.

Zhou Zongbao, who had been listless, suddenly became alert, climbed to his feet, and cried out joyfully, “Little Wood!”

A twitch involuntarily seized the corner of Gu Changsheng’s mouth. In fact, every time Zhou Zongbao called Zhou Mu by that name, Gu Changsheng had to forcibly pretend he hadn’t heard it.

Zhou Mu, such an aloof man of more than six feet tall, being called Little Wood repeatedly–it just felt incredibly off and mismatched…

Gu Changsheng also noticed the trembling at the corners of Zhou Mu’s eyes every time he heard this nickname.

He must have felt helpless…

“Little Wood, hurry up and let me out! Being in jail is simply terrifying! Hurry, let me out. I’m not a spy. How could I possibly be a spy?”

“Cough!” Zhou Mu glanced at Gu Changsheng, then covered his lips and coughed lightly again.

Immediately getting the hint, Gu Changsheng slapped the dazed Yuan Bao and spoke sternly, “What are you still standing there for? Do you really think you’re here to visit the prison? Release His Highness Prince Bao immediately!”

“Awooh!” Yuan Bao finally snapped to his senses and hurried towards the dungeon lock.

After a flurry of clumsy operations, Zhou Zongbao, now free again, instantly changed his demeanor.

Hands on his hips, he pointed his finger at Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu, who were standing side by side, and roared furiously, “Who is in charge here? Who is in charge here? Step forward, you Young Master!”

Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu exchanged looks, a wry smile forming on their faces.

Could she say it wasn’t her?

Clearly, she couldn’t!

Because her subordinates were watching.

Adhering to the principle that it is honorable to own up to one’s actions, Gu Changsheng resigned herself and stepped forward. Amid Zhou Zongbao’s earth-shattering screams, she raised her hand, pointed to herself, and declared, “Merely an incompetent person, indeed, it is I…”

Hallelujah! Confess and be lenient! Confession must be lenient!

Zhou Zongbao glared, and immediately lunged at Gu Changsheng with claws outstretched.

Yuan Bao was quick to act, intercepting in front of Zhou Zongbao.

Zhou Mu also shifted a step, positioning himself in front of his woman.

“Step aside for your Young Master! In my twenty-five years of life, having been an Emperor and a Prince, I’ve never suffered as much as these past two days!”

Zhou Zongbao, held around the waist by Yuan Bao, stretched out his arms, and ranted at Gu Changsheng.

“This Mother Tigress had me thrown out, which is bad enough, but then she had me thrown into a dungeon! Sob… I’ve grown so big, and not even my Imperial Father has ever willed to lock me up!”

“Yuan Bao, let go of your Young Master, I’m going to fight her! This is no way to treat someone!”

“…”

Zhou Zongbao’s shouting grew louder and louder, making Gu Changsheng quite nervous.

Cautiously peeking from behind Zhou Mu, Gu Changsheng looked at the furious Zhou Zongbao struggling against Yuan Bao’s restraints and softly spoke during his panting breaks.

“Zhou Mu says, I have Han Qiu…”

Oh dear oh my, dead daoist friend does not die poor daoist, since this fierce deity was summoned by Zhou Mu the evildoer, let him handle it!

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zongbao choked, and his cursing abruptly ceased.

Zhou Mu turned his head and glared at the little woman hiding behind him; he really didn’t know what to say about her!

Gu Changsheng’s remark undoubtedly rekindled the fire, and true, Han Qiu was Zhou Zongbao’s Achilles’ heel–pinch it and it was sure to hurt!

Having pinched his weakness, Zhou Zongbao evidently couldn’t do much to Gu Changsheng, therefore the firepower, without doubt, shifted to the innocent Zhou Mu.

“I knew it! I told you! You forget your mother once you have a wife, you ungrateful wretch! You’re actually turning your back on your own people!”

“Do you have no conscience? Was raising you an easy task for me, and now you just indulge this woman in bullying me? You are truly spoiling her rotten!”

Gu Changsheng just saw Zhou Zongbao’s mouth opening and closing, opening and closing, blabbering endlessly, and it made her see stars…

Zhou Mu, as the direct victim of this penetrating scolding, was quite accustomed to it and remained cool and composed.

His completely serene demeanor only added fuel to the fire, thoroughly infuriating Zhou Zongbao.
