Subconsciously, he released the girl in his arms.

Seeing him loosening his grip, Gu Chaoyan instantly got up from his arms and looked at Lord Huai with a look of confusion, as she thought inwardly – did the protest work?

Embarra.s.sed, Zhou Huaijin was worried that she would find him way too flirty. After all, they had just met a few times.

“I need to go now, take good care of yourself.” He said and then hurried off.

Strange.

That was exactly what Gu Chaoyan was thinking! This Lord Huai was so weird!

Seeing him leaving, Gu Chaoyan got tired too, so she laid down and fell asleep.

The following day she had just gotten herself ready, when Mrs. Lin came waiting for her at Jingxin Hut.

Mrs. Lin was worried and anxious and she understood that clearly.

She skipped breakfast and went to Chuyun Pavilion with Mrs. Lin.

Lin Jiashu had already gotten up.

He did not look as angry as he was the day before, but he still refused to take a look at Gu Chaoyan.

“Chaoyan, the materials are ready as you have asked.” Mrs. Lin said and pointed at some aged doctors in the room. “They are here to help you. Just tell them what you need.”

Helping her… No, Mrs. Lin was just worried.

She was hiring these doctors to watch over her, so she could be a.s.sured.

It was her son she was talking about, and she did not want anything bad to occur, even if it meant that Lin Jiashu only had a few years left.

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

She got one of the materials ready and threw a look at one of the doctors. “Go and get it cooked, then carry it into the room when it is done. When the acupuncture is done, he needs to be soaked for two hours.”

Seeing the material, the doctor hesitated, but still decided to go.

Gu Chaoyan had the silver needles with her all the time, because she used the needles in her previous life.

Seeing her bringing out the silver needles, one doctor interrogated. “You are doing acupuncture?”

Gu Chaoyan nodded and did not continue to discuss anything with the doctor. She threw a calm look at Lin Jiashu and said, “Just take off your clothes.”

With his eyes upon her, Lin Jiashu did not move.

Mrs. Lin was una.s.sured, so she asked the aged doctor, “Anything wrong with the procedure?”

The doctor got a bit annoyed seeing that Gu Chaoyan ignored him.

Seeing Mrs. Lin asking him, he snapped, “Nothing wrong with acupuncture, I have been experienced with needles for generations, but even I didn't use it on Young Master, and this young girl can do it? I am afraid that Young Master has to suffer from the pain in vain.”

Gu Chaoyan threw a look at him, “You may not be skilled, but not everyone is unskilled as you are. I managed to cure Young Master from the w.a.n.g Family, did you?”

She had not wanted to keep mentioning curing Young Master Tong, but this old doctor was truly annoying.

Without reminders, he a.s.sumed that she was just a newbie!

True.

When Tong was mentioned the doctor got silenced.

Mrs. Lin got a.s.sured too. How come she forgot that Chaoyan managed to cure the Young Master of the w.a.n.g Family!

When Jiashu came and interrogated her last night if she would approve of whatever conditions Gu Chaoyan raised. She thought over this question for the entire night.

Even if Chaoyan wished to marry Jiashu and took marriage as the condition. She would approve of that too. Nothing mattered more than his life!

Seeing Lin Jiashu refusing to move, Gu Chaoyan snapped. “I can't give you the needles unless you take your clothes off. Why is a man like you as indecisive as a girl?”
