Chapter 45 - 46 Fulfilling the Wish
In the courtyard.
A cool breeze blew in, bringing a refreshing chill even in the summer.
The man in front of Ye Qichi was Gu Xingchuan, the son of the wealthiest family in the Daxuan Kingdom, with their business sprawling across the entire Daxuan, reaching into all industries. The medical clinic was just the smallest of the Gu Family’s enterprises, managed by the youngest son, Gu Xingchuan.
This year, 21-year-old Gu Xingchuan, well-read and brimming with talent since childhood, suffered from an "odd illness" and therefore did not often socialize. Despite this, he was exceedingly intelligent, and much of the Gu Family’s commercial success hinged on the strategies he devised for his father behind the scenes.
Subsequently, by a twist of fate, Gu Xingchuan became an aide to Xiao Jinxing, and later on, Gu Xingchuan helped Xiao Jinxing ascend to the imperial throne. In the end, Gu Xingchuan rose to become the Prime Minister of the Daxuan Kingdom, second only to one but above ten thousand others.
However, Gu Xingchuan, with such a prosperous life, was truly cursed with a short lifespan. Merely three years after becoming Prime Minister, he passed away due to "illness"!
At the time, Ye Qichi felt the author must have had a hole in their brain.
To just write off a perfectly good male lead so senselessly, not to mention he didn’t even get an official match before his death!
Of course.
The current Gu Xingchuan obviously had no knowledge of the fate that would befall him, as he silently observed Ye Qichi before him.
