Ms. Doctor Divine

Also...

Also the agreement he reached with Gu Chaoyan about the duration of his stay was expiring. Xie Yan knew clearly that Gu Chaoyan admired him from the bottom of her heart, and that she could not conceal her admiration towards him. Also, she kept urging him to meet her.

Lord Huai was just a Lord, but the throne was not yet taken. Everyone might be the candidate.

He had never seen any imperial children who didn’t dream about the throne.

He could tell that Gu Chaoyan was ambitious, since she cared so much about what was going on. So he believed that Lord Huai should have the same ideas as well.

!!

They needed a strategist.

So he believed that he would be interesting for them, otherwise, why would they keep protecting him for a month? And he had no work to do during this month, so it must be costly for the couple.

So they must be trying to make him stay.

Xie Yan thought this inwardly.

He was very confident about his talent. However, the moment he decided to leave the Crown Prince, he already did not want to get involved with the competition for the throne. So it was not proper for him to remain by Lord Huai’s side.

However, Gu Chaoyan was a very interesting person who respected everyone around her.

Xie Yan had no idea what choice he should make.

And Sword One wore a very complicated look on her face.

It was just a chit chat Elder Miss asked for, what took Mr. Xie for so long?

Sword One reminded him. “Mr. Xie, are you going or not?”

Xie Yan withdrew his emotions and answered. “Of course, yes.”

Sword One looked even more confused.

What took him so long to make the decision? Elder Miss was not a beast!

Sword One dropped the confusion and took Xie Yan to the yard in which Gu Chaoyan was staying.

Xie Yan could see Gu Chaoyan and Lord Huai drinking tea there, so he could not help feeling very nervous. Just as he had expected, Gu Chaoyan and Lord Huai must have admired his talent, so they were trying to get close to him and make him stay.

Well...

It was something Xie Yan was very confused about. He had no idea what choice he should make.

Xie Yan sighed and went to join them.

Gu Chaoyan showed a brief smile. “Mr. Xie, just take a seat, please.”

Then she asked Qing to serve the tea.

Qing was very fast as well. The moment Xie Yan sat down, the tea was already served and it was still hot. The tea served at Xinlin Mansion was very tasty, and Gu Chaoyan got the best for herself. So the smell lingered.

Instead of taking the teacup, Xie Yan asked cautiously, “Lady Chaoyan, what do you need me for?”

Gu Chaoyan chuckled.

“Nothing much, just wanted to share a very interesting thing that has happened in the capital these days.”
