Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 173: Concerned for You

“What are you messing around for!” Gu Zhenkang was no longer silent and bellowed at Gu Chaoyan. He looked disdainfully at her. “County Princess Anxi is a noble lady, someone never to be offended! How dare you offend her! Go and ask her for punishment, or you are out of this mansion.”

Gu Chaoyan was still standing there coldly. She had no emotions stirring inside her. She had seen through the Gu Family, and she was not easily saddened.

However, Sword Three, who had been hidden in a dark corner, had tears welling up in his eyes. Poor Miss. Gu, how could the Gu Family treat her in this way! Sword Three was a very emotional person who had been feeling very sorry for Gu Chaoyan. He wanted very much to get down to hit those people for Chaoyan, but Sword Four gripped him, shaking his head to remind him of his real duty.

However, she had no idea that someone was feeling concerned for her.

She said coldly, “It is County Princess Anxi who raised the proposal of having a bet. If I had turned down that offer, County Princess Anxi might get angry, and that would not be my business to deal with.”

This sentence made both Madam Gu and Gu Zhenkang change their expressions.

That made sense.

Madame Gu had been living in the capital city for a long while. Within a short period of time, she kept thinking and coming up with a quick solution. “If that is the case, don’t perform too well at the bet, don’t make County Princess Anxi displeased.”

“She won’t be able to perform well at all.” Gu Zhenkang snapped directly. “Just stay at your Qiong Pavilion and don’t go out to cause trouble any more. Leave now, just seeing you annoys me.”

Gu Chaoyan shrugged and left nonchalantly.

The moment Gu Chaoyan left, Mrs. Gu asked quickly, “Madame Gu, why not just remove her from the Gu Mansion?”

Madame Gu shook her head. She would have done that without hesitation before, just as Mrs. Gu proposed, but now... She was more or less useful. Lord Huai liked her medical skills, so they should not give her up unless it was totally necessary.

“Just let her be. Pay more attention to Ruxue!” Madame Gu said. As Ruxue was mentioned, she became slightly happier. Ruxue was the right girl to have received great education since childhood. She was destined to become a noble lady!

Hearing her words, Mrs. Gu had to purse her lips and give up.

They kept asking about Gu Ruxue, hoping that she was doing fine.

When it came to Gu Chaoyan, she was not feeling that terrible at all. That was what the Gu Family was like, wasn’t it?

The moment she came back to her home she flung herself into the space. She planted all the herbs, and even placed the enormous egg inside the space. She would like to see what was hatched out of this egg.

As she came out of the space, she took fruits from inside the space too.

She decided to brew some fruit wine.

If the taste was good, she was going to make preparations for her restaurant.

Gu Chaoyan had a very high expectation for her future.

Suddenly, she was swept into someone’s arms. She could tell directly from the smell that it was Zhou Huaijin.

She gave him a slight push.
