Ms. Doctor Divine

"If that works out well, I am going to help her with my heart full of gratitude!" Ms. Lin said resolutely.

She was not a woman with a bad intention. The reason why she treated Gu Chaoyan like that before was because she was worried about her son.

She was helping Chaoyan because nothing else was bothering her son. She would not mind taking Gu Chaoyan's side as long as it was not a decision to be made between her son and Chaoyan, but if there was an occasion like this, she would always take Jiashu's side no matter whether it was the Phoenix Girl she was faced with.

She had no other ideas or plans right now.

She just hoped that Jiashu could give up his affection towards Chaoyan and find a suitable girl to get married to and have a promising future. That would be all.

The reason why she kept mentioning this today was because she wants Jiashu to accept the reality.

Hearing those words, Lin Jiashu's expression sank. He had no intention of saying anything more which made Ms. Lin nervous.

She added. "Jiashu, we can all see today that Chaoyan is a girl, but she has ideas of her own and she is very stubborn. You don't need to worry about her that much."

"…"

"See the fox-fur coat that she is wearing? Lord Huai's men managed to hunt the King of the Fox before, and that is a coat made of its fur. The Queen had one, and the other is now on her. Everyone knows about this. So Lord Huai treats her well. And you know what Lord Huai could do for her back at the governmental office before, right? You saw the whole thing, too."

"…"

"Also, she is the Phoenix Girl, so there is no need to worry about her. Mrs. Gu doesn't like her, but I can help her with that. You don't need to worry about anything, any more. You should just think about your marriage and your future."

Ms. Lin babbled for a long while because she did not want Lin Jiashu to get worried. She had to say those things to him.

Lin Jiashu was smiling bitterly after hearing her words.

Lin Jiaxing added with a small voice. "Okay, that is all. Jiashu is a grown man and he knows what to do."

Only then did Ms. Lin stop.

At the Gu Mansion.

Gu Chaoyan did not return to the mansion until the Lin Family's wagon was far away. It was no longer snowing in the Saint Divine Land, and the snow on the ground was melting too, but it was still quite cold. Gu Chaoyan was more sensitive to cold than others, so she still had a hand fireplace in her hands.

She barely talked, unless she needed to say something.

Sword One, however, felt like talking. She said, "Elder Miss, if you have dropped the grudge against your aunt, or the Lin Family, I think that you can spend more time with them when you have the chance."

"…"

"In around one year, you are getting married, and you can't get married from here. So I believe that the Lin Family is definitely better than the Gu Family, you know. It would always be better if a family can see you off on your wedding day." Sword One babbled.

Gu Chaoyan was so surprised as her eyes widened. She laughed. "Sword One, since when did you become so good at babbling? You are not like a hidden guard any more."

Sword One stomped her feet and said helplessly, "Please, Elder Miss!"

Before Gu Chaoyan was able to answer, the maid in the court said, "Elder Miss, there is a letter for you."

"A letter? From where?"
