Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 131: Show Me Your Wound

Zhou Huaijin smiled briefly.
With his eyes upon her, he said, “You are heartless, and I am sinister, we make a perfect couple together.”

Gu Chaoyan’s face twitched.
She felt a bit helpless, but she felt some sweetness too.

In this entire world, Zhou Huaijin was probably the only person who could tolerate her.
Although she had no idea why from the very beginning, Zhou Huaijin had been treating her with kindness.

“Alright, stop thinking.
The dinner is ready, are you hungry?” Zhou Huaijin asked with a warm voice.

She had not felt hungry earlier, but as Zhou Huaijin mentioned it, Gu Chaoyan felt her stomach grumbling.

The two went to have dinner together.

—

In the following few days, Gu Chaoyan was very well fed at the Lord Huai’s Mansion.

She had not seen Rong Chuxuan and Lin Sen any more.
However, after that day, Gu Chaoyan seemed to receive much more respect among Lord Huai’s Mansion.

She knew that she got the respect because of Zhou Huaijin.

Nevertheless, the leisurely days at Lord Huai’s Mansion had to come to an end one day.
She could not live like this forever, after all, she had missions to complete.

Therefore, after lunch Gu Chaoyan said, “My wound is more or less healed.
I would like to return to the Gu Mansion tomorrow.”

Zhou Huaijin’s smiling expression faded, but he understood it clearly.

A woman like Chaoyan should not be enclosed inside a small place like Lord Huai’s Mansion.

“Your wound is healed, really?” Zhou Huaijin asked.

Seeing that he was not keeping her, Gu Chaoyan let out a sigh of relief.
She was not worried that she would be trapped, she was worried that Zhou Huaijin would assume that she enjoyed life here so much that she lost her ambitions.

Seeing that he was worried about her wound, Gu Chaoyan nodded seriously.
“Yes, it is healed.”

“Really?” Zhou Huaijin looked confused.
“I don’t believe you.”

Well… Gu Chaoyan’s face sank.
Then what was she supposed to do? “Then get the doctor to check it, then you can be assured.”

“No way!” Zhou Huaijin looked serious.
“Why doctors? No, no way.”

As he was speaking Zhou Huaijin said with a serious and nice tone, “Let me have a look at it.
If the wound is healed, I will take you home tomorrow.”

Well… Gu Chaoyan hesitated.

He was checking her wound out? But her wound was… well…

“What about asking Qing to check for you? Or the maids?” Gu Chaoyan suggested.

“No, I have to check myself.” Zhou Huaijin said with a serious tone, “It is just a wound.
I am not a doctor, but I am concerned about you, although I am a man.”

The words made sense.

Chaoyan looked at his serious face, thinking for a while…

And she understood that he must be really concerned.
So she clenched her teeth and nodded.

She was not a conventional woman.
After all, she was a killer from the 21st century who wore very little clothes in summer, totally unlike the people in this age who were wearing thick clothes.
She was just a bit surprised.
After all, she did not even have friends in the previous life, let alone been close with anyone.

Gu Chaoyan kept telling herself that he was just checking her wound out.
So she removed the outer dress.

For a moment, she felt cool air brushing against her back.

Gu Chaoyan turned around and showed Zhou Huaijin her back.
That was where her wounds were.

Zhou Huaijin’s throat tightened.
