Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 1071

Chapter 1071: Evilness
Gu Chaoyan was still busy with her own business, so she had not spoken with Zhou Huaijin for the entire afternoon.
However, Zhou Huaijin was not angry. He had a bright smile and thought that Chaoyan in this mood was very lovely too.
He came to Gu Chaoyan, and swept her into his arms. He lowered his head and asked, “Are you still mad at me? It is my fault, but please don’t be angry. It makes you age!”
Then he pinched Gu Chaoyan’s nose.
Gu Chaoyan shot a glare at him, but didn’t stop him.
She was not mad. She was more bashful. She used to be an assassin in her previous life, so she should not get emotionally attached to anyone. She had not felt attached to anyone either. It was not until now that she felt that she had fallen for Zhou Huaijin. However, she was always very bashful when they went close. The bashful feelings made everything awkward. That was why they were like this now.
Luckily, Huaijin still forgave her.
Gu Chaoyan felt a bit moved. She looked up at Zhou Huaijin with a pair of wide eyes. She blinked and said, “We are not yet married. Please don’t act this frivolously any more.”
Zhou Huaijin nodded seriously while looking contemplative, then he asked. “Then when can we get married?”
Gu Chaoyan glared at him and felt very helpless.
What was he thinking?
She was not speaking about getting married. What was he thinking all this time?
Gu Chaoyan felt very helpless.
She removed herself out of Zhou Huaijin’s arms and sat down on the chair, saying seriously, “According to the martial rules of the Saint Divine Land, the two families should have picked a good day for the wedding after the engagement is settled, but we are in a special situation right now. Our mother is not really deceased, but she is, in both the court and the civilians’ eyes.”
“…”
“So according to the rules, you should stay unmarried for two years before you are allowed to get married.”
“…”
“But two years are just the rules, and people normally stay unmarried for three years, to show their resolution and filial piety.” Gu Chaoyan finished speaking in a serious tone, then she looked at Zhou Huaijin with a pair of wide eyes.
Zhou Huaijin agreed. That was a rule in the Saint Divine Land, and he was very aware of that, but…
As he looked at how Chaoyan reacted when speaking to him, he felt that Chaoyan was being really evil when she was saying those things to him.
What an unruly girl!
She was his future Princess Consort, yet she was a very evil girl, worse than he was. What was he supposed to do about her? Zhou Huaijin was feeling both annoyed and sweet.
He took the seat next to Gu Chaoyan and looked at her with a very pitiful expression.
Gu Chaoyan was not moved by him, but took a sip of the tea, and looked outside, saying, “It is getting late, I am going to take a bath, please just go back to your room and sleep.”
“Okay.” Zhou Huaijin looked even more wronged, then he snuck away.
Seeing his retreating figure, Gu Chaoyan smiled and continued to drink the tea.
