116: Lord Huai

Lord Huai

"Shut up!" Lin Jiaxing got furious hearing Mrs. Lin's sour words. The Lin Family would sooner or later get ruined by what this woman said. "Do you still want to live or not, that is Lord Huai!"1

"What?" Mrs. Lin's eyes widened in disbelief. Lord Huai? A lord? But he was holding the ugly girl… how could that be possible.

Before Mrs. Lin gave it one more thought, Gu Chaoyan already came to their side.

Zhou Huaijin had put down the girl, but he was following her around.

"Uncle, Aunt, Jiashu… you… well, thank you." Gu Chaoyan was not that good at expressing herself. She had no idea how to spill out the words of gratitude.

"It is okay, we have done nothing." The Old Master felt a little embarrassed. He had done nothing, so the words were way too heavy for him to bear.

However, Mrs. Lin was aware that the man next to Chaoyan was a lord. So she started to behave differently and said with a smile, "Chaoyan, Qing told us that something happened to you, so your uncle and Jiashu were worried and came here in a hurry." Mrs. Lin said as she tugged Lin Jiashu. "Right, Jiashu?"

Lin Jiashu looked a bit embarrassed. He was not willing to answer a thing.

Yes, they did come here, but they had done nothing except for being anxious.

When he saw the man standing next to her, who had carried her out of the office. Lin Jiashu finally understood why Gu Chaoyan was so arrogant as to say those words - that was because he was nothing except for being the Young Master of the Lin Family.

Zhou Huaijin did not like those people from the Lin Family.

Seeing that they were pestering them, he did not want to waste time but said, "Yan is injured, I need to take her home for treatment."

Only now did the Old Master notice the blood stain on Gu Chaoyan's body.

He said quickly, "Sure, sure."

The words had just been spoken when Gu Chaoyan was carried up again, but this time she did not struggle.

Mrs. Lin belittled her in every aspect, thinking that a divorced woman like her would never get married again. However, Zhou Huaijin was such an outstanding man that Chaoyan did not mind showing off a little right here.

A small smile hovered over her face.

Zhou Huaijin looked happy as well. "I will thank them for you, if the Lin Family had the intention of helping you!"

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

Then Zhou Huaijin stuffed the girl into the wagon.

Inside the wagon, Zhou Huaijin kept frowning as he laid eyes upon her wound. It was not very deep, fortunately. Probably because Madame Duke Changning was a woman who did not use a whip often. However, even if that was the case, Zhou Huaijin was still full of guilt and concern. He dabbed medicine upon the wound discreetly. "Hurt?"

Chaoyan shook her head. "Not really."

This was such a small wound for her, who had experienced wounds many times more serious than this.

However, she felt heat rising up inside her, as she saw Zhou Huaijin's enthusiastic look upon her.

She lifted the drapery to get some air as she looked out. Then she noticed that the wagon was going in a strange direction. "We are not going back to the Gu Mansion?"
