Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 385: Marrying Me

Lord Ling paused and stayed silent. He sized up Gu Ruxue from head to foot.

He would have got very annoyed if it was a greedy proposal raised by some other women, but she was the Phoenix Girl, who could help him to dominate the world in the future, so he was showing extra patience and good temper in front of her. He even thought that her proposal was totally reasonable.

He patted Gu Ruxue’s hands. “I left yesterday to deal with this matter.”

“…”

“Ruxue, you are my favorite girl, so I won’t make you feel helpless. I thought about it for a long while and discussed it with the ambassador at the mansion. So I have made up my mind to marry you as the Equal Princess Consort,” Lord Ling said with a smile.

He had thought about making a better plan about this, but since Ruxue was asking him now, he found that this decision must be wonderful.

Ruxue was the Phoenix Girl, and he could not allow her to suffer, but his Princess Consort had a father who was the general that was in charge of military rights, so he could not give her up either or degrade her to a concubine. So since neither of the women should be offended, then they could share the same social statuses.

Equal Princess Consort meant that both of the women would be the Princess Consort. In this way, neither of them would complain.

“Equal Princess Consort?” Gu Ruxue asked confusedly.

Lord Ling nodded. “Equal Princess Consort, means that you are sharing the same social status as Princess Consort. She is the daughter of the general so she won’t mind a thing with you. Don’t worry, just stay open and try to get on well with her.”

Lord Ling was trying to remind Gu Ruxue. After all, she had no idea that she was the Phoenix Girl, so he mentioned his Princess Consort, telling her that he had offered her many wonderful things.

Gu Ruxue had not been quite satisfied with the arrangement, but she still smiled. “You are so kind, Lord!”

Lord Ling smiled. He was very satisfied with what he was doing.

Since Ruxue agreed with the arrangement, what he needed to do was to tell his Princess Consort who was a woman with a nice personality. She would approve of this arrangement as well.

As he thought it through, Lord Ling looked rather radidant.

Lord Huai? So he was the King’s favorite son, so what? He was not at all as smart as he was. He was going to prove to his father that he was the most suitable candidate.

Gu Ruxue was smiling alongside too.

Outside the mansion.

Zhou Huaijin had already pulled over his wagon and waited for Gu Chaoyan outside. Gu Chaoyan lifted the drapery and walked in. Zhou Huaijin was reading a book when he saw the girl coming, so he put down the book. He reached out for her and swept her into his arms, smiling brightly.

Gu Chaoyan did not resist him either. She leaned against his chest and asked curiously, “Why are you so happy today?”

His ice-berg like face was full of smiles, which was quite rare.

“Because you are marrying me, and you can only marry me.” Zhou Huaijin said with a mild smile.

Gu Chaoyan smiled too. She had not expected a lot of what happened.

When she came to this era, she had been planning to establish a world for herself before quitting and leaving peacefully, but unexpectedly, she met Zhou Huaijin.

“Oh right.” Zhou Huaijin suddenly thought of something.
