Rebirth: The flatterer prince I raised couldn't be so clingy

Gao Ye shook his head with a guilty look on his face: "I didn't steal anything."

"Are you sure?" Feng Zhanye obviously didn't believe him.

Seeing that Gao Ye was not going to tell the truth, Gu Qingzhi twisted his arms behind his back before he could react and pressed him on the table.

Gao Ye was startled and tried to struggle, but he found that the person behind him was very strong and his arm hurt when he moved it slightly.

"It's unfair! I really didn't steal anything, please believe me!"

"Then why did the teahouse owner send someone to arrest you?" Gu Qingzhi slightly lifted his arm upwards again, causing the person at the table to cry out in pain.

"It hurts, it hurts, let go, I'll tell you if you let go!"

Only then did Gu Qingzhi let him go.

"Your guard is too fierce."

Gao Ye glared at her unhappily and rubbed his arm, but he didn't dare to be negligent any more and had to tell her the truth honestly.

"Can't you see? They were just making excuses. I was having dinner with my good friends just now and ran into a few rich young men. Who would have thought that they would laugh at me for being from the country? I was so angry that I played a little trick on them."

Gu Qingzhi stared at him inquiringly, feeling that the "teasing" he mentioned was not that simple.

Seeing her curiosity, Gao Ye smiled slyly and said smugly, "I just mixed some horse urine into their food."

No wonder people want to arrest him. The more Gu Qingzhi looks at him, the more he seems unreliable. She wonders in her heart if this is really the nephew who will be Feng Zhanye's future backer?

Just as they were talking, footsteps were heard from outside the door again. Gu Qingzhi hurriedly grabbed Gao Ye's collar and stuffed him under the table again.

Suddenly, a huge force came from nowhere and the door was kicked open with a bang.

"Second Master Zuo! Gentlemen! I have really checked, and I really didn't find that guy on the second floor. A lowly person like you cannot afford the responsibility of disturbing the distinguished guests!"

The teahouse owner spoke anxiously, but still failed to stop the few people from entering the house.

"Why, which of your guests is a royal relative? I want to see who dares not to give me face!"

A arrogant voice mixed with pushing sounded. Feng Zhanye looked up at the people coming, and the one leading the way was a familiar face.

Before he could speak, the person on the other side asked first: "Why are you here?"

Zuo Chengran looked at Feng Zhanye with disdain, then revealed a mocking smile: "Boss, is he what you call a 'distinguished guest'? You really don't pick and choose when doing business. You entertain this unlucky thing. Aren't you afraid that it will be infected with evil spirits and cause trouble?"

Feng Zhanye hadn't expected him to be here. He raised his voice deliberately, causing passers-by to look at him sideways. The several rich young men following behind him also sneered.

"You are not doing something bad behind my father's back, are you?" Zuo Chengran seemed to have forgotten the purpose of his visit and couldn't help teasing him when he saw him.

"Mr. Zuo, you are worrying too much. Didn't the teacher tell you what I am doing here today?"

Feng Zhanye's handsome face still had that indifferent expression, but in Zuo Chengran's eyes it was full of sarcasm.

Feng Zhanye knew clearly that his father was only close to his eldest brother, but he still mentioned it, as if he was mocking him.

Zuo Chengran couldn't hold back his pride. There were several friends watching him from behind, so he couldn't afford to lose face at this moment. He snorted coldly, "Don't think you can put on airs in front of me just because you rely on my father. Come on, search for me!"

Several servants from the prime minister's mansion rushed out from behind him, and upon hearing the order, they dispersed to the four corners of the private room to search.

The person hiding under the table must not be discovered. Seeing this, Gu Qingzhi hurriedly stood in front of the table and stared at him.

"Second Young Master, think carefully. We all live in the Prime Minister's Residence. You should go home and solve your own family affairs. If others see you as a joke, it will not only be your Highness who will be embarrassed."

In order to divert his attention, Feng Zhanye, like a guilty thief, secretly pressed down several impeachment letters on the table and guided him to look in his direction.

Zuo Chengran sensed that the two were reacting inappropriately, and looked at the letters that Feng Zhanye had protected: "What are those things? Hand them over!"

He walked around Gu Qingzhi in a few steps and came in front of Feng Zhanye. Seeing how he was guarding the letters tightly, he became more convinced that there was something fishy going on here.

"You are hiding something, take your hands away!"

Without giving it a second thought, he thought he had finally caught Feng Zhanye's hand. However, Feng Zhanye remained unmoved. Instead, he raised his eyes, showing no intention of letting go.

"Do you really want to see it?"

"Stop talking to me! Take it away!"

Zuo Chengran pushed away his hand that was pressing on the impeachment letter, picked up the letter on the table and looked at it, but his expression became increasingly uglier.

As the second son of the Prime Minister, he had almost no right to know what Zuo Fuhong was doing on a daily basis, but every letter was written with the words "Personally from Lord Zuo Xiang", so he could still understand it.

He flipped through all the letters, trying to find something else among them that would at least give him a chance to make a point, but unfortunately, those words were clearly marked on every letter.

In an instant, cold sweat broke out on his back.

Others may not know the reason, but Gu Qingzhi and Feng Zhanye know it very well.

Zuo Fuhong did not allow his children to become officials. He was always on guard against his children as if they were thieves, not to mention letting them read any important correspondence. Zuo Chengran was of course well aware of his father's temper.

Seeing him stunned, Feng Zhanye added fuel to the fire, "Since the Second Young Master wants these, why don't you take them back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and give them to the teacher."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Zuo Chengran suddenly panicked, threw down the letter in his hand, and shouted: "Why do you want me to do your own thing for you!"

After he said that, he turned around, pushed through the crowd and ran out of the private room.

Everyone was confused by his reaction. He was so arrogant when he first entered the room, but how could he become so panicked after reading a few letters and was actually scared away?

Several people had no choice but to leave the private room as well.

"I was so scared, I thought I was dead."

Gao Ye heard no sound in the room and took a long while to get out from under the table, patting his chest in shock.

"Thank you very much. I have no way of repaying you two for your kindness."

He saluted Feng Zhanye and Gu Qingzhi, and then suddenly smiled slyly.

"I wonder if you two would be willing to do me a third favor?"

"I don't want to."

"I don't want to."

Gu Qingzhi and Feng Zhanye answered almost at the same time.

"How sad! I almost thought we were friends." As if he had guessed this answer a long time ago, Gao Ye slowly moved towards the door.

"But you have to help me now, whether you want to or not. Otherwise, I will get out of here right now and tell them that you were the ones who were protecting me the whole time!"
