Ms. Doctor Divine

Gu Chaoyan stayed and watched the show for a while, then she got bored – nothing interesting happened when two equally terrible parties were fighting over one small errand.

The Zhang Family might be pathetic at the moment, but they deserved all of this. The Zhang Family must have trusted Mrs. Gu’s words so they got Zhang Liangyi to ruin her. In this way, the Zhang Family would be able to share the dowries and restaurant with her. However, they had never expected the result to be like this.

Who could they blame this on except for themselves?

Gu Chaoyan was not a person who could be bullied as they wished. She threw a look at Sword One and Qing and left together with them.

It was a land of peace back at the Qiong Pavilion. The fruit trees they planted in the yard had been growing well.

Gu Chaoyan asked Qing to pick some fruits.

These fruits could make Qing look prettier and healthier. In this way, she would avoid getting small diseases. Sword One, on the other, would get stronger and more powerful with martial arts.

She could not expose her space. So what she could do was to get the supplements for Qing and Sword One in this way.

When they had time, they would ask the four guards to have a taste of these fruits too.

In the following few days, it was very quiet in the Gu Mansion.

Gu Chaoyan heard from Sword One that the trouble with the Zhang Family had been solved. Mrs. Gu was worried that the Zhang Family would spread rumors about her, so she got them to live in the Gu Mansion for the time being. The Gu Mansion was enormous, since they used much of Mrs. Lin’s money to conduct renovations. So it was large enough to hold the entire Zhang Family.

Rumor went that Mrs. Jinzhang had gotten lots of money from Mrs. Gu as well, but Sword One was not sure how much exactly she had gotten.

Madame Gu was doing better with her stroke. Yet she was still unable to get up and had to lie down in the Pear Garden the entire day.

Soon the day of the entrance examination of Saint College approached.

While Gu Chaoyan was making full preparations for the test, a piece of shocking news arose.

Sword One said with a face of confusion, “Miss, Lord Ling’s men are here for the proposal!”

Gu Chaoyan’s lips twisted.

What was wrong with Gu Ruxue? What made Lord Ling want to marry her anyway?

Lord Ling’s family not only begged the King for mercy last time, (although Gu Chaoyan claimed that she did that to the Gu Family).

“And they paid a great deal of attention to this. They asked Madame Huo to be the ambassador, and the wedding gifts are enormous! People would even assume that he is getting the Princess Consort!” Sword One added, looking even more confused.

Sword One even believed that Lord Ling must have become stupid, but she did not dare to say something like this.

Gu Chaoyan just could not fathom the whole thing either.

Nevertheless, it was very lively outside in the front yard.

Gu Zhenkang had assumed that the marriage would be ruined after what happened to Princess Gu, and he even started to seek for other marital matches for Gu Ruxue at the moment. But now, Lord Ling’s men were here for the proposal, so was Madame Huo.

Gu Zhenkang smiled so brightly. He directly asked Chen Fu to bring Mrs. Gu, who had been grounded by him, to the front yard. “Go get Mrs. Gu, she is the Second Lady’s mother and has to be present.”

Chen Fu hurried off.

Madame Huo smiled brightly too. She had gained a glorious reputation for herself because of this marriage proposal. Lord Ling asked her to be the ambassador, only because Huo Wei and Ruxue had a close friendship.

“Officer Gu, the Gu Mansion will be completely different in the future. We from the Huo Family would probably need your help!” Madame Huo said with a large smile.
