Chapter 443: Chapter 444, Calculating Tianci
"Hehe," Shi Jiayu laughed.
Hemei and Henuan laughed as well.
Indeed, after all, this was something others had worked hard to research and sell for money.
Han Tianci was quite concerned about that man, as after all, this was his first time treating someone, and he couldn’t mess up and have the man die on him.
So he was watching attentively at the moment.
When Xing Keshou opened his eyes, he saw a delicately handsome boy staring at him, which startled him, but he also realized that he had been rescued.
"You..." Xing Keshou spoke, his throat painfully sore.
His whole being didn’t feel that weak, though.
"Hey, you’re awake! I saved you, you know. My name is Han Tianci, remember that! It was me who saved you. I personally cut away the rotting flesh and applied medicine. Also, how are you feeling now? Uncle Zhong has already prepared some medicine for you, after you take it, have a good sleep, rest assured, you’re safe now!"
Han Tianci chattered on nonstop, and Xing Keshou understood that he had been saved.
"I, I..." Xing Keshou began to speak but couldn’t manage to say anything.
Though it’s said that real men don’t cry easily, the Xin Family of hundreds was now down to him alone as the only survivor.
How could he not shed tears?
"Ah, don’t cry. You’re a grown man, why are you crying?" Han Tianci asked, puzzled.
Even he wasn’t crying anymore.
Xing Keshou observed Han Tianci; his clothes were of the finest damask, the belt in his hair was made of silk, and the unbelievably valuable piece of lustrous, flawless white jade on it shone brightly. Looking at his rosy lips, white teeth, and the sparkling vitality in his eyes, it was clear he was a well-bred son of a wealthy family.
After reflecting for a moment, he had a plan and then spoke weakly, "Our family... only I am left."
"Ah..."
Han Tianci was extremely shocked.
"They are all dead, everyone but me!"
Han Tianci’s eyes widened, "Are you alright?"
"..."
Xing Keshou said nothing more.
Looking at him, Han Tianci sighed, "What exactly happened to you? Where is your family? Why are they all dead?"
Though he was young, he knew he was being used.
But curiosity drove him, and he asked very earnestly.
"Six days ago, a murder occurred in Yangxi City. The Governor conspired with bandits to murder their way into the Xin Family, one of the city’s influential households, all to get a hold of the Treasure Map in possession of the Xin Family and to capture Madam Xin."
"..."
Han Tianci’s eyes went wide with amazement at this revelation.
What a drama.
"Who are you?"
"I am the third legitimate son of the Xing Family, Xing Keshou!"
Although Han Tianci was mischievous, he knew this was beyond his ability to manage, "Wait here, I’ll find someone who can help!"
Han Tianci ran out of the room and saw Chu Yu, "Big Brother Chu, that person inside, he..."
Chu Yu ruffled Han Tianci’s hair, "I know, go find your sister!"
"I don’t want to go. Can I just stay and watch quietly?" Han Tianci pleaded with pitiful eyes.
Chu Yu felt a softness in his heart, "Fine!"
He led Han Tianci back into the room.
Xing Keshou had already struggled to sit up.
Chu Yu looked at him impassively, "Xing Keshou?"
Xing Keshou didn’t speak, but instead forced himself off the bed and with a heavy thump knelt down on the ground, "This humble person, Xing Keshou, pays his respects to Your Highness, Prince Rui!"
Han Tianci covered his mouth in shock.
This man actually knew Big Brother Chu’s identity, how impressive!
Chu Yu’s brows furrowed slightly, his expression solemn, "Do you recognize this prince?"
"Your Highness, Prince Rui, in earlier years, this humble person had the opportunity to see Your Excellency’s honorable presence in the Capital City, and this time on my way to Hengzhou City, I was also aware that Your Highness was traveling from Hengzhou to Yangxi City!"
