Ms. Doctor Divine

Zhou Huaijin smiled gently, waving at her and asking her to join him in the wagon as soon as possible.

Gu Chaoyan was surprised that Zhou Huaijin was here, but soon she calmed herself down, and put down the curtain. Sword One, who usually shared the same wagon with them, retired since Zhou Huaijin was present.

Zhou Huaijin passed her a newly-made tea and let her hold it in her hands. The snowy days were gone, and the weather was getting hotter, but Gu Chaoyan's hands were always cold no matter how hot it was outside. Fearing that she would feel cold, he asked her to hold a cup of hot tea.

Seeing her accepting it, Zhou Huaijin said, "I have been very close to you the entire time."

"…"

"I knew you had found the evidence, and the four of them would not have made any mistakes, but I was still worried, so I came out."

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "…"

"The King has his men everywhere, so I can't appear randomly." Zhou Huaijin apologized to Gu Chaoyan, looking a little concerned, but soon, he showed a gentle smile. "But I should make sure your affairs are properly arranged. You can give up the Gu Mansion, but you and your mother lived at the Qiong Pavilion, so I have had it surrounded, and only you have access there."

Hearing his words, Gu Chaoyan smiled brightly.

He knew. He knew what she was thinking. Only he could understand what was on her mind.

The Qiong Pavilion had the Immortal Flower, which was grown by Ms. Lin personally. She was going to take good care of that tree, though she might not take care of the others.

After a long day… She almost forgot about that, but he remembered that for her.

Gu Chaoyan was very moved, and it was shown in her quiet eyes.

"Okay, if you are moved, marry me when I take the throne, okay?" Zhou Huaijin looked earnest as if he wanted to burn Gu Chaoyan with his eyes.

Gu Chaoyan nodded without hesitation.

"The saying goes that the two most fortunate things in one's life are when one scores highest in the imperial examination and when one is at the wedding's night. And I look forward to the latter." Zhou Huaijin looked at Gu Chaoyan's exposed neck, then her chin, and then her lips and her face…

Gu Chaoyan glared at him.

She was flushing because of what she heard.

She had no idea when he gained the habit of speaking such words.

She put down the teacup on the small desk, got up in a small rage. "One more such word and I will ride with Sword One instead."

Zhou Huaijin pulled her back next to him.

He would not say those words any more, but he was chuckling.

Chaoyan seemed cold at the moment, but he was still burning inside his heart.

He had been trying to restrain his burning feelings, but gradually, he realized that Chaoyan was not frightened or showing any discomfort towards his behavior. She was just being shy.

However, her shyness made him feel even more motivated to say those intimate words.

Zhou Huaijin could not help but take her slender fingers into his hands, rubbing carefully, seeing that she had no intention of leaving any more.
