Chapter 115
Duke Changning after all, had a rank. And this ugly girl was just a daughter of a useless officer with fifth rank. She was divorce and looked ugly. So Lu Jiming could not think of any reason why Lord Huai would help her apart from him being seduced.
That was why Lu Jiming dared to say such a thing, but…
The next second, Lu Jiming was kicked away directly and fell upon the ground, motionessly.
Zhou Huaijin did not blink an eye. He looked at Gu Chaoyan with a pair of consoling eyes. "Happy now, Yan?"
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
"Then let's go home, you are injured." Zhou Huaijin said.
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
Zhou Huaijin held Gu Chaoyan in his arms and started to walk out.
Seeing them leaving, the fat chief let out a sigh of relief.
Hearing the chief's relieved sighing, Gu Chaoyan suddenly thought of something, "Hang on."
She stopped as she pa.s.sed by the fat chief. She squinted her eyes and said to Lord Huai, "Lord, this chief touched my face."
"What!" Zhou Huaijin frowned and looked furious. "Chop of his hands!" Having said this, he looked at Rong Chuxuan.
Rong Chuxuan's heart skipped a beat. He knew pretty well what his master was like.
He asked him to take care of Miss of the Gu family, but he got careless so the Lady of the Gu family suffered. He was worried that he would not be able to skip being punished either. In order to perform well and reduce the punishment to be put
Zhou Huaijin was satisfied. Then he picked up the girl. "I will give you a lift home."
Gu Chaoyan got startled by his sudden move. She let out a scream. "What are you doing?"
Zhou Huaijin replied calmly. "You are injured."
"But my legs are fine!" Gu Chaoyan looked helpless, struggling to get down. She was not cheeky enough to be seen in this way. The Government Office was full of people, and she needed her reputation! What if the rumor spread. "Put me down!"
"No!" Zhou Huaijin insisted.
When he was not holding her a few days earlier, she was terribly wronged. So now he was not going to do that any more…
If she wouldn't marry him until she was done with her own affairs, then he would just help her so she could speed up.
If she wanted to chop people, he could offer her a knife.
Gu Chaoyan, who had been struggling to get rid of his arms, did not know that so many ideas had flashed across Zhou Huaijin's mind within such a short period of time. She was flus.h.i.+ng! It was the first time for her to be held in this way in two lives. It was such a strange feeling for her!
Nevertheless, Zhou Huaijin did not care. He walked towards the gate of the Government Office with the girl in his arms.
As she was about to get onto the wagon, Gu Chaoyan spotted the members of the Lin Family standing outside the gate. That surprised her. "Hang on."
"What is it?" Zhou Huaijin asked patiently.
"Put me down now." Gu Chaoyan said. What were the Lin Family doing here? Were they trying to help her? That surprised her. She had to thank them even if they did not succeed.
In the meanwhile, the Lin Family also spotted Gu Chaoyan who was held by Zhou Huaijin.
Lin Jiaxing got so startled!
Seeing the tall and strong man holding Gu Chaoyan, Mrs. Lin said with a sour tone, "Who is the man holding Chaoyan? It can't be the man she claims that she is going to marry? They are not even married and now they are behaving like this in the broad daylight. I don't think it is someone from a normal family!"
