Chapter 73: Words to Say
He was thinking as he kissed Shui Lan on the mouth and said, “Get me the clothes. When I am cured, you are mine.”
Shui Lan flushed. She had never expected that happiness came so fast.
So during these past few years, Young Master had been so fond of her too?
Her hands were s.h.i.+vering as she helped him to get changed. It took a long while to get the work done.
Lin Jiashu looked really handsome after the medical bath. He was flus.h.i.+ng with color probably due to the heat.
Lin Jiashu was throwing a casual gaze at Gu Chaoyan, hoping to get some differential emotions from her face to see if she had minded his recent behavior. However, he was disappointed.
Gu Chaoyan was still wearing a flat expression.
He got more furious because of the disappointment.
He looked at Gu Chaoyan and said straightforwardly, “Shui Lan is a maid I love. Shui Lan, you don’t have to work at Jingxin Hut, just stay here to serve me, does that sound okay?”
Gu Chaoyan was sipping the tea when she heard what he said. Then she nodded instantly.
She already had Qing who served her all this while. She did not mind who the Lin Mansion had arranged for her. So if Lin Jiashu needed her maid, she would not mind that at all.
“Okay.” Gu Chaoyan replied.
Lin Jiashu felt very angry inwardly, but he could not vent it or extinguish it for some reason.
Mrs. Lin came in.
She had the medicine Gu Chaoyan asked her to prepare.
Seeing Lin Jiashu seated there with a flus.h.i.+ng face, Mrs. Lin got so happy. “Come, Jiashu, drink the medicine while it is still hot.”
Lin Jiashu took over the medicine and drank it with a frown.
“Give me your hand.” Gu Chaoyan said, seeing him finis.h.i.+ng the drink.
Startled, Lin Jiashu offered the hand.
She felt his pulse before smiling briefly.
She had been wondering whether she should add some magical spring water into Lin Jiashu’s medicine, but now it seemed unnecessary. He was getting better.
“How is it?” Mrs. Lin asked anxiously.
“He is doing well. He will definitely be cured within one month.” Gu Chaoyan said with full confidence.
This was a promise that made everyone in the room show a smile.
Seeing that she was not needed, she got up and said, “I need to take a break now, we can continue with the acupuncture tomorrow.”
Mrs. Lin nodded constantly. “Sure!”
Seeing Gu Chaoyan leaving, Lin Jiashu looked at Shui Lan next to him. “Go to Jingxin Hut and bring your stuff here.”
Shui Lan could not help but want to laugh, yet she did not dare to do that in front of Mrs. Lin, but answered with a lowered head, “Yes.”
Mrs. Lin had no idea what had happened, so she looked at her son with a look of inquiry.
Lin Jiashu had no intention of explaining anything more but said, “I need her to serve me.”
Mrs. Lin did not want to disappoint Lin Jiashu when he was sick, so she did not say anything more, but said to Gu Chaoyan. “Chaoyan, I will get you some more maids later.”
Gu Chaoyan smiled and nodded, then she left for her residence with Qing.
Shui Lan followed them.
Seeing Gu Chaoyan’s back, Shui Lan started to think inside her head. Young Master liked her, and she was pretty aware of that. However, if Miss. Gu did cure Young Master, the Old Master and Madame would surely be very thankful to her. What if she gave her problems when she became the mistress? What was she going to do by that time?
As she was thinking, Shui Lan stepped forward and said, “Miss. Gu, I need to talk with you.”
