Chapter 977: Noisy She was still hesitant, but did not turn him down again.
Huaijin was just worried about her, after saying so much. He would not be assured if she did not accept the authority token. So she would do what he wanted her to do, to make him feel assured.
She was not going to over use the authority token now that it was in her hands. She would act based on the situation.
Gu Chaoyan put away the authority token carefully and placed it in her pocket. Then she looked at Zhou Huaijin with a smile. “Is that okay?”
Zhou Huaijin nodded and caressed her head, then he served both her and himself a cup of tea.
Gu Chaoyan took up the teacup, sipped it and said, “I plan to bring Shen Tai to have a look at those things at Shadow Door.”
Gu Chaoyan did not even address those things as people, just things.

Shen Tai?
Zhou Huaijin looked a bit confused when he heard the name. For one moment, he just could not think of who that was.
Gu Chaoyan continued. “Shen Tai is the man that was injured by those things. He might not have seen what those things were, but he was the victim, and he should be able to have a rough idea of it. I hope that I am able to obtain some practical information from him. We don’t have any clue at the moment, do we?”
Hearing what Gu Chaoyan said, Zhou Huaijin suddenly remembered.
Shen Tai was the badly-injured man from the mountains, who was brought back to life by Chaoyan at Xinlin Clinic. However, later when he and Chaoyan left on their trip, the patient stayed at Xinlin Clinic and by this point, he should have recovered.
If he could have a look at those things, that might be a solution too.
Just as Chaoyan said, they truly had no clue of what was going on. Maybe Shen Tai was able to offer some useful information under such a circumstance.
“That sounds like a practical idea, but we have to inform Shadow Door about it. Also, you will have to tell Shen Tai that he has to be blind-folded when he is taken to Shadow Door.”

“…”
“The branch of Shadow Door in the capital is a well-built place. Shen Tai owes you his life, but whether or not he is trustworthy isn’t yet certain. So we can’t expose Shadow Door to him.”
“…”
“It might not be that convenient for us, but I will explain the situation to him.”
Zhou Huaijin reminded her.
Gu Chaoyan nodded, agreeing with what he had said. Shadow Door was an important place, and no mistakes were allowed to be made there.
“Okay, let’s do it that way. We will visit the clinic tomorrow.” Gu Chaoyan said.
Zhou Huaijin nodded before asking her to bathe and sleep earlier.

It had been a very exhausting day for them after visiting Shadow Door.
***
The following day…
Gu Chaoyan got up very early.
She did not think that the visit to Shadow Door would be easy, so she decided to get up early and save some time.
After eating a brief breakfast with Zhou Huaijin, they left with Sword One. Fu Bao had been busy dealing with the errands at Lord Huai’s Mansion, so he had been absent these days. Zhou Huaijin was thus alone.
Xinlin Clinic was located in a very remote area, but not very far from where they lived. So the wagon soon arrived at the destination.
Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin got out of the wagon and headed to Xinlin Clinic, when they heard some noise arising from inside. She subconsciously frowned.
What was the noise here so early in the morning?
It was a just clinic that only saved dying patients.
