Chapter 628: Let Him In
Gu Chaoyan had been living inside the mansion since the purchase, but she had not named the mansion, so the board on the door was always vacant.
Gu Chaoyan did not mention a thing about the board, nor did the servants. They all believed that Elder Miss had her own ideas and plans. So when the Imperial Master mentioned the destination, what he said was none other than “the mansion”.
After all, he did not notice what the mansion was called on his previous visit.
Gu Chaoyan’s mansion was located slightly far from the center, but was not that isolated. It was not a long ride between the hotel and the mansion, it only took the Imperial Master one hour to arrive at the mansion.
It was snowing, but the Imperial Master did not even use an umbrella before he walked in directly.
It was Xiu Jie who was guarding the door, since there was nothing special going on.
Seeing that the Imperial Master was here, Xiu Jie did not show a good expression. He was present when Prince Muyi and Elder Miss were talking about the deals, even a rough man like Xiu Jie could tell that the Imperial Master was not a nice man. Now he was here alone… he must be up to something.
The Imperial Master intended to walk in directly, but Xiu Jie stopped him and said expressionlessly. “Who are you?”
The Imperial Master’s eyes widened.
They met with each other before, and now he was asking him who he was?
Tolerating the anger, the Imperial Master decided to deal with this servant later after meeting Lady Chaoyan.
The Imperial Master answered annoyedly, “The Imperial Master of the Feather Mulberry Land. I want to see Lady Chaoyan.”
Xiu Jie answered briefly. He said with an equally expressionless look on his face. “Then hang on here, I will pass on the message.”
Then he was about to shut the door directly.
The Imperial Master said surprisedly, “Are you asking me to wait here?”
What a joke! He was the Imperial Master of the Feather Mulberry Land! Now he was in the Saint Divine Land where even the royal family were treating him politely. This Lady Chaoyan was just a lady who had been driven out of the family, and she was not qualified enough to put on airs in front of him.
Now he was asked to wait at the door!
The Imperial Master could not believe what was happening. He was about to say something when the door was shut right on his face.
The Imperial Master’s expression froze then he burst out into laughter, feeling rather pissed. He would like to see how long this servant would stay arrogant!
He was going to tell Lady Chaoyan about this man later, so that Lady Chaoyan could punish him!
The Imperial Master was already planning how to punish this man in his heart.
***
When Xiu Jie shut the door, he walked in to pass on the message.
Hearing the news, Gu Chaoyan frowned deeply. What was he doing here?
“Is Prince Muyi here?” Gu Chaoyan asked.
“Only the Imperial Master…” Xiu Jie answered.
Xiu Jie even thought that Elder Miss could turn him down. He was just the Imperial Master of the Feather Mulberry Land who took actions behind the Elder Prince’s back. That could not be something good. And if Elder Miss met this man from the Feather Mulberry Land, the King might find it suspicious! That would not be nice.
However, Xiu Jie did not dare to say those things in front of Elder Miss.
Gu Chaoyan hesitated for a moment. Normally, she did not have to meet him, but she would like to see what the Imperial Master was going to do behind Prince Muyi’s back.
She was in a cooperative relationship with Prince Muyi anyway, so she nodded. “Let him in.”
