The explosion quickly drew the army's attention. Lei Baofei rushed over on a horse, looking grave and serious.

The street was chaotic, littered with broken pieces of rocks and dirt that had scattered from the explosion. Ye Zhizhou's head was covered with sweat as he crouched by the road, bandaging a child wounded from the explosion. Yan Mingyong was behind him instructing De'an with something.

"Your Highness!"

Lei Baofei dismounted from his horse and strode over. He performed a formal greeting with his hands cupped, "Requesting Your Highness to leave immediately. Another earthquake usually follows after one occurred, this place is not safe."

Yan Mingyong glanced at Ye Zhizhou, who was focused on bandaging the child's wounds, and shook his head.

"No need. It's not an earthquake. Firstly, place wounded people and doctors in the nearby inn, clear up the street, and then surround the Chuan Yue restaurant. Medicine is on the way and will be here soon."

Lei Baofei frowned in confusion, "Not earthquake?"

"We'll talk in detail later, move the wounded people first."

Yan Mingyong turned his wheelchair to Ye Zhizhou's side and bent down to stroke his head, "Le'er, the doctors will be here very soon. I'll let someone move the child to the inn, you should rest for a while."

In the middle of tying the gauze in place he turned to look at Yan Mingyong and Lei Baofei, then stood up while wiping his sweat and nodded, "Okay, we'll also go to the inn."

He looked at Lei Baofei as he spoke. He didn't have the mood to do the mission at the moment, so he said briefly, "Requesting Lord Lei to handle the matters here. His Highness and I shall leave first."

This was the first time Lei Baofei met this book companion of the eighth prince. Seeing this calm and steady face that was unlike the repulsive appearance described by An Chengjie, he felt a complex emotion in his heart that warmed his attitude. He cupped his hands and replied, "Young lord An need not be polite, take care."

[Probability of Lei Baofei falling in love with the protagonist dropped to 5%, may the host persist in his efforts.]

Ye Zhizhou gawked, then glanced at Lei Baofei not knowing whether to laugh or cry. His heavy mood lifted a bit and a smile appeared on his face, "See you later, Lord Lei."

This Lei Baofei, every time he appears his love probability drops a little more, he's such a generous little angel.

"Le'er," Yan Mingyong tightly grabbed his hand and looked at Lei Baofei with a deep gaze, "We'll return to the palace shortly, I'm afraid we won't be seeing Lord Lei again."

It was only a few words of pleasantries, why did he relapse! Ye Zhizhou unhappily pinched his hand and then pushed his wheelchair away. He nodded to Lei Baofei and walked towards the inn, he waited until they were out of Lei Baofei's earshot before swatting at Yan Mingyong's head. "You little vinegar jar. With your bratty attitude, if not me no one would want you!"

Yan Minyong was indignant. "I don't want anyone else anyway!"

"But there will definitely be other people for me."

"Who dares!" Yan Mingyong forcefully hit the armrest, about to explode. "We'll go back to Wen Quan villa now! Right away! De'an, let servants ready our carriage! We'll go back and marry there!"

Only nutjobs would want to go back to that villa, there's only one person to talk to there— Yan Mingyong! And marriage? Ye Zhizhou tugged on those ears while grinding his own teeth, "Spare the rod, spoil the kid. You're still thinking of marriage? Have you even grown up there?"
