1379: Worries

Worries

He looked at the girl leaning on his shoulders. Chaoyan was a very cold and calm person, and it was the first time for her to lean against his shoulders like a lazy cat.2

He wanted so much to take her in his arms, but he did not want to startle her. They were not yet married, so he could not just behave over the top.

After all, he loved her deeply and did not want to make her uncomfortable.

Zhou Huaijin looked at Gu Chaoyan passionately as the wagon moved forward at a steady pace.

After a while…

Zhou Huaijin frowned and felt that something was wrong with Chaoyan.

Chaoyan was different from a moment ago when they were close to each other. It seemed as if Chaoyan was suffering from something right now. She was frowning deeply as her hands turned into fists. Her knuckles had turned pale, and it seemed as if she were bearing something.

Zhou Huaijin was startled as he asked. "Chaoyan, what is wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Chaoyan frowned without saying anything, because she could not speak. She felt terrible. It was as if her body was burning, and she really wanted to ask for more from this man. It seemed that her body was going out of her control.

She had to press down this strange feeling by clenching her fists.

It was not a normal reaction, as Gu Chaoyan believed, but she had not yet discovered what happened to her own body.

"I am fine." Gu Chaoyan forced an answer, as her face turned red.

Hearing that she was fine, Zhou Huaijin still thought that something was wrong. Chaoyan was different from her usual state.

He looked at her, frowning.

A rough sound of the coachman arose. "Lord Huai, Elder Miss, we have arrived at Xinlin Mansion."

Meanwhile, the wagon pulled over.

Zhou Huaijin lifted the curtain and saw that the snow was still pouring down. He removed his black cloak and put it over Chaoyan.

Gu Chaoyan could feel some coldness from outside, and felt as if the discomfort had been washed away.

She got off the wagon and stood in the snow, so that the cold could calm her down.

Zhou Huaijin was startled. He went up and covered her with his cloak. Worried, he said with a worried tone, "It is blowing outside!"

Gu Chaoyan got rid of him, and insisted on standing in the snow. She still had tears in her eyes, as she looked at Zhou Huaijin, glaring. "I am not feeling cold."

Having said that, she removed her cloak and walked forward.

Zhou Huaijin was worried that she would feel cold, but did not want to force her.

Back at the yard…

Gu Chaoyan felt that she was getting better.

Qing was startled at the sight of her, "Elder Miss, it is blowing outside, why are you not wearing a cloak?"

Having said that, she passed the hand warmer and let her hold it, as she looked on worriedly.
