Ms. Doctor Divine

Although he had told Xie Yan about the plan, he was still really annoyed. That was why he wanted to go to Lady Chaoyan to vent his anger. The heir was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Xie Yan would have dropped it in the past, but now he was the heir, and what he was doing did not cater to his social status at the moment. Also, wasn’t he worried that Gu Chaoyan would spill the secret to the public?

If that was the case, there would be a lot for the heir to deal with by that time.

Xie Yan sighed and shook his head. He went back to get ready for his own business.

He was a strategist, and he had been educated to become a strategist since childhood, but after spending such a long time serving the heir, he almost forgot about how to be a qualified strategist. He was more like a pageboy running errands for the heir, who kept dealing with problems for him. No one capable enough had appeared to serve the heir, so he, as the strategist, had to take over almost every single errand.

The heir insisted on his own plan...

Well, there was nothing he could do. He had passed on the reminder, and he had done his best, so what he should do next is to get everything ready and done. By autumn of this year, he would be free.

He would have served the heir for exactly five years, which was what he had promised the heir when he took up this position.

Xie Yan sighed and started to head towards his own residence.

Zhou Huailing was heading towards Gu Chaoyan’s Xinlin Mansion with his men at this moment.

He had been to this place before, so the horseman knew the way clearly.

Soon they arrived at the mansion.

Zhou Huailing asked his guards to knock at the door with a loud banging sound.

It was Xiu Jie who opened the door.

Seeing the door open, Zhou Huailing was just about to walk in, when Xiu Jie stopped him. Xiu Jie said straightforwardly, “Heir, Miss is not at home and we are not receiving guests these days. We have no master in the mansion right now, so please leave.”

Zhou Huailing was so furious. He got even more furious when he saw this servant, but he still asked. “Where is she?”

“She has gone traveling to somewhere we don’t know. She left with Lord Huai.” Xiu Jie answered straightforwardly.

Hearing these words, Zhou Huailing was startled.

They had left the capital?

That was good.

If the King agreed upon the lords’ travel somewhere else, then things were different.

That made Zhou Huailing feel less annoyed, but since he was here, he was not leaving empty-handed.

Gu Chaoyan was absent, but he could visit the mansion anyway. Gu Chaoyan was a bit strange, and he would like to see if she hid something else in the mansion after knowing that she had a phoenix. If any more secrets were discovered, then he might get a harvest!

As he thought about this, Zhou Huailing took a step forward. “Your mansion is not vacant just because your Miss is not available. I can take a look inside and leave later.”

He started to walk inside, but Xiu Jie stopped him directly. “That doesn’t seem right, you are the heir, after all.”
