1515 Lord Huai’s Return
Gu Chaoyan threw a very helpless look at Sword One, who was worried.
Sometimes, if you really cared about someone, you would be worried about them all the time, and wonder if they were sad because of what they had experienced. Although she told Sword One many times that she did not care how the Gu Family was treating her, Sword One would still be worried about her being sad about what the Gu Family did to her.
Gu Chaoyan felt very touched by this, but she also wanted to tell Sword One not to be so worried. She was about to explain, when a firm voice arose from outside.
“Why am I being mentioned?”
!!
Huaijin?
Gu Chaoyan looked towards the door in surprise. There was a man in white standing at the door, looking at Gu Chaoyan with deep eyes. Zhou Huaijin was considered an exceptionally tall man in the Saint Divine Land. He usually wore the purple robe of Lord Huai’s rank. He was unparalleled, but he was less approachable. Wearing a refres.h.i.+ng white robe today made him look full of warmth.
Gu Chaoyan asked as she stopped looking at him. “What are you doing here?”
Zhou Huaijin looked a little confused. “You aren’t happy that I am back?”
Hearing that… Gu Chaoyan felt that she was misunderstood. She flushed. “I got the letter yesterday and you talked about the Cloud Land. I thought you would still be stuck in the wars there, so I am just surprised,” Gu Chaoyan explained sincerely.
Zhou Huaijin looked a little helpless but amused.
Other girls would have thrown themselves into his arms, but Chaoyan was different. She was seriously explaining her reaction to him. Well, no matter how she treated him, he would never be angry. Because she was Gu Chaoyan.
Zhou Huaijin approached her and went closer to her, so that he could see her s.h.i.+vering eyelashes. He said with a hoa.r.s.e voice, “I understand.”
Sword One lowered her head and went out in silence.
Gu Chaoyan’s face was already flushed, and she leaned slightly to the side, as her mind was a little confused and at a loss. After holding back for a long time, she finally choked out a sentence: “Is there anything wrong with the border?”
Zhou Huaijin’s gaze was still on her face, with one hand gently stroking her black hair, he said with a slightly hoa.r.s.e voice, “The North Qi has already retreated, and the border gate is safe for the time being. I left the Shadow Door people there. There is no need for me to do it personally. However, The North Qi should have some other tricks. We need to be cautious.”
Gu Chaoyan was silent after hearing that.
She knew Zhou Huaijin’s style. He was here because everything was settled. She just tried to come up with something to say.
She was very helpless because of his actions. She was not dodging Huaijin, but she was still not used to it.
Gu Chaoyan was speechless after her question was answered. She had no idea what comments to make on that. She leaned aside and did not dare to look straight into his eyes.
Zhou Huaijin suddenly thought of something, when he looked at this girl panicking.
