Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 410: To the Court

The girl in his arms frowned slightly as she was carried, but then her eyebrows unknitted as she fell into warm, firm arms. She even had a small smile on her face.

Zhou Huaijin was even more discreet, fearing that she would feel unwell if he bumped her. It took him a long while before he reached the bed. Then he put her down carefully.

Gu Chaoyan frowned again as she felt herself leaving the arms she was used to. She opened her eyes cautiously and saw that familiar face of his, smiling brightly.

Zhou Huaijin touched her head and said, “Just sleep, I am right here.”

Gu Chaoyan nodded, and closed her eyes subconsciously, looking extremely drowsy.

Soon she opened her eyes and said against the strong sense of sleepiness. “We have to find Destiny Monk first. What he has said might be true. If those words are true, he would be able to know a lot of other things, and I am afraid that there is going to be a huge disaster coming to the Saint Divine Land!”

Zhou Huaijin looked very serious too. He had heard something about what happened today, but Chaoyan was way too exhausted at this moment. He did not want her to worry about that stuff. He caressed her face and said, “I understand, just sleep, and I will make sure all goes well.”

Hearing this, Gu Chaoyan felt totally assured. Then she fell asleep as she closed her eyes.

Zhou Huaijin watched her quietly by the bedside.

The moonlight was very bright. He saw this girl’s baby-like face through the moonlight, and he was so happy. He thought of what happened when he was little.

There was one year when he was newly-granted as Lord Huai by his father, so he got permission to live outside the mansion.

Before he left the court, he hosted a banquet where a lot of people were gathered. He fell into someone’s trap and ended up in a dry well. He thought that he was going to starve to death out of exhaustion alone, but a little girl appeared. She was younger than him, and she came up with a method to save him.

That girl was called Gu Chaoyan.

From that day on, he bore this name in his mind and he grew up overnight. In the same year, he founded the Shadow Door.

From that day on, no one dared to set him up.

During these years, he had eyes upon her and he even got his men to keep her safe. He was very grateful to Gu Chaoyan.

So when he knew about Prince of the Duke Changning who wanted to break off the engagement, he volunteered to visit the Gu Mansion with him.

That was when he met her. She had changed. She was no longer the cowardly girl.

He saw her clear-pair of eyes and from that moment on, he suddenly understood everything. Gu Chaoyan was more than the savior that once saved his life when he was little. Gu Chaoyan was his dream, and he was going to give her the best in the world.

He took hold of her hand and looked at her in this way. Zhou Huaijin did not leave until dawn broke.

When Gu Chaoyan woke up, it was already bright outside. She took a look at the chair next to the bedside, smiled.

Sword One entered to dress her.

Seeing Gu Chaoyan looking fine, she said, “Elder Miss, Doctor Yinghan is outside. She says that the King is asking for you.”
