Ms. Doctor Divine

Hearing that… Zhou Huaijin held his fists tightly and his expression sank.

Chaoyan was a skilled doctor, so she was ordered to go to Xinzhou, and he was not allowed to tag along?

He understood clearly what caused all of this.

The imperial order took him and Chaoyan back home, but this new order appeared because Zhou Huailing must have written a letter.

He was very angry at not having established his own figure at Xinzhou. That was why he decided to do something else on the sly.

Chaoyan was made to go to the border, not for her medical skills, but to torment her.

Zhou Huaijin was not going to let this happen to her.

He still did not want to make a compromise. He did not want Chaoyan to suffer alone in Xinzhou.

If that was the case… then… he was going to confront his father.

He was the King whom he could not confront, but if he lost the throne, everything would be gone, right?

Zhou Huaijin let out a sigh of relief, looking very resolute.

Chaoyan was his soft spot.

Gu Chaoyan seemed to have sensed his emotion. She patted his hands, telling him not to get anxious, then she took a step forward, saying with a smile. "I am willing to go to Xinzhou."

"…"

"And please, don't blame Lord Huai for anything. Lord Huai is just worried about me because we are engaged."

"…"

The King looked at Gu Chaoyan and then at Zhou Huaijin.

He was still displeased, but not as displeased as before.

He moved his lips, saying nothing but nodding. "I will arrange some people to accompany you there, you can go back to your mansion now."

Having said that, he started to read his unfinished book instead of looking at them.

Zhou Huaijin still had a very bad look on his face, but Gu Chaoyan dragged him away, and he went.

Outside Qianqing Palace…

Zhou Huaijin still looked determined. "Chaoyan, I will not allow you to go to Xinzhou alone."

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

She glanced about and saw no one in sight, but people always eavesdropped at the palace, so she needed to be cautious.

"Let's talk outside of court," Gu Chaoyan said and walked away with Zhou Huaijin.

Zhou Huaijin looked very serious. He did not relax about what had just happened.

They walked out of the long corridor and arrived at the gate, passed the gate and went into the wagon.

Everything was well sorted in the wagon, so it was quite warm inside.

Zhou Huaijin asked the coachman to ride slower as they headed back to Xinlin Mansion.

He looked at Gu Chaoyan and said seriously, "I will not let you be tormented alone at Xinzhou!"

Chaoyan accepted the offer, but he knew that Chaoyan was just worried about the soldiers at the border, and thought that she could take this opportunity and go there too.

The Crown Prince Consort and the Crown Prince were not able to give Chaoyan a hard time, but she was not able to defend against everything. He did not want Chaoyan to take any risk at Xinzhou.

Haha.

Gu Chaoyan smiled.

She couldn't help pinching Zhou Huaijin's face. She tried to feel his cheeks and pinched them.

Zhou Huaijin was startled.

Well…
